Every one at the Beaconsfield inn
had begun to talk about it. This did
not make Jim Paxton feel any more
cheerful. To be outwitted at every
turn by a lynx eyed and indefatigable
chaperon was bad enough, but to real-
ize that all the boarders at the sum-
mer hotel.were enjoying the game was
adding insult to injury.
Up to the third Saturday in July
Mrs. Davidson had been an ideal chap-
eron. She averaged three headaches a
week, and these demanded seclusion in
her darkened room. During the hops
she chatted contentedly with other
dowagers in supreme indifference to
the fact that her charge, Bleanor Mont-
gomery, was sitting out every other
“extra” on the dim and shadowy porch.
She declared that cone chaperon on a
sailing party was sufficient; so, as
novel on the hotel porch.
day in July Mrs. Davidson underwent
a curious change. Vigilance was
stamped upon her usually placid fea-
tures, and she watched Eleanor as if |
she expected the gixl to be kidnaped |
and held for a ransom. Simultaneous-
ly with the appearance of these symp-
toms Jim Paxton, joyfully anticipating
three weeks of Eleanor’s society, ar-
rived at the Inlet.
Eleanor, clad in a fetching frock of
white mohair, with a spreading collar
of decp blue that opened to show her
graceful throat, was on the porch when
the wagonctte drove up from the sta-
tion. The other girls, whose elaborate
but diaphanous gowns had yielded to
the inexorable sea air, looked limp and
colorless beside Eleanor. Jim Paxton
recalled with a certain pride of posses-
sion that he had never seen her when
she was not well dressed. He could
imagine her in lustrous velvet presid-
ing over his dinner table. with the old
Paxton plate and the damask that the
Paxtons had for years imported from a
certain Dublin firm. “
After he had greeted her, and inci-
| moment of his arrival she devoted her-
self to foiling his every effort to be
i alone with Eleanor. Her headaches
| mysteriously disappeared. She assum-
i ed an interest in sailing that was dili-
| gently supported by a newfangled cure
for seasickness. At the hops she no
longer chatted in the dowigers’ cor-
ner. but her eyes watched Eleanor’s
every movement. Clambakes became a
source cf delight, and her capacity for
long walks discouraged the resourceful
Jimmy.
Two weeks were almost gone, and
the ring still lay in his pocket. He was
sitting cn the pier, talking with Jean
Brown. Eleanor’'s most intimate friend.
There was a twinkle in Jean's eyes,
and. taking courage, he poured his
trouble in her sympathetic ears, finally
working himself up into a fine fury.
“Diplomacy, diplomacy,” urged Jean
when he stopped at last, only, how-
ever, from lack of breath. ‘You're go-
ing on the wheeling trip to the Point
tomorrow, aren’t you?”
“Yes, but Mrs. Davidson even rides
a wheel.”
“Well, I'm going down to the village
now. I believe I can find a cure for
her wheeling fad. Personally I think
| it’s bad form for a woman of her age
| It was a gray cube and it felt like
But on the nizht of the third Satur- |
pasteboard. He glanced at her curi-
ously.
“The antidote for an overdose of
chaperou. I'll leave the rest to you.”
When the bieyclers started out the
next morning, something was wrong
| with Eleanor’s wheel. With commend-
able patience Jim tinkered at it, while
Mrs. Davidson, looking remarkably
patty in her English made suit,
watched the rest of the party steadily
growing dimmer down the firm beach
road.
At last the “rio started, and at the
first smooth stretch of road Jimmy of-
fered Bleanor a “bax of the Dest” if
she’d beat him to the party now round-
ing the cliffs. She was off like the
wind, never looking back to see
whether Jimmy was gaining on her.
Once she thought she heard a feminine
scream: not unlike Mrs. Davidson's,
but she did not dare to look back.
When she dashed into the merry
group at the Point there was a chorus
of questions. “Where is dear Mrs.
Davidson?’ And Jimmy Paxton, tear-
ing breathlessly after her, explained
A Legend of the Red Men Explains
the Strange Custom.
Once an old Apache Indian when
asked the question why his people
painted their faces told this little leg-
end:
“Long ago when men were weak and
animals were big and strong a chief of
the red men ¢/ho lived in these moun-
tains went out to get a deer, for his
people were hungry.
“After walking all day he saw a deer
and shot at it, but the arrow was
turned aside and wounded a mountain :
lion. which was also after the deer.
Wher the lion felt the sting of the ar-
row, he jumped up and bounded after
the man. who ran for his life.
“He was a'most exhausted. and
when he felt his strength giving way
he fell to the ground, calling on the big
bear, who, you know, is the grandfa-
ther of men, to save him.
“The big bear heard the call and saw
that to save the man he had to act
quickly. so he scratched his foot and
gprinizled his blood over the man.
“Now. vou must know that no ani-
mal will cat of the bear or taste of his
blood. So when tke lion reached the
man he smelled the blood and turned
away. but as he did so his foot scraped
it peeled off.
“Where the claws of the lion scraped
it off there were marks that turned
brown in the sun, and where the
blood stayed on it was lighter. Now
all men paint their faces that way
with blood and scrape it off in streaks
when they hunt or go to war.”
THE CARIBS OF DOMINICA.
Fierce Savages Who Have Dropped
Their Man Eating Ways.
A recent colonial report on the Caribs
of Dominica is interesting. Very mys-
terious is the origin of the fierce sav-
ages, now almost extinct, who were in
possession of the smaller West Indian
jslands when the first white man burst
“into that silent sea.” They showed a
distinct Mongolian character, and it
would be hard to distinguish a Carib in-

HE WAS SITTING ON THE PIER TALKING
When the Paxton-Montgomery wed-
ding occurred, the groom did the un-
conventional thing. He presented the

A Story of John Randolph.
The Philadelphia Times tells a good
story of Join Randolph, that descend-
ant of Pocahontas who figured so bril-
lantly in congress as a representative
of Virginia. He was once accosted on
the piazza of a hotcl by a young blade
who had been boasting of his acquaint-
ance with Randolph and who thought
he could bluff the Virginian inte speak-
ing to him before the admiring guests
of the hestelry. He planted himself
| befcre Randolph and saluted him with:
“Good morning. senator!”
“Morning!” replied Randolph with-
out the faintest sign of recognition.
“Fine day. senator.”
“X% fact apparent to everybody. sir?’
came from the Virginian.
“Br — what is going on. senator?”
persisted the cad,, flushing under the
rebuffs of the senator.
“1 nin. sir.”
Wild with indignation, the accoster

search of human food, and from Porto
Rico alone are said to have taken more
than 5,000 men to be eaten. Though
Spaniards, Frenchmen, Dutchmen, ne-
groes, or Arrowaks, were all meat to
them, yet these Caribs seem to have
shown preference for certain’ national-
ities. Davis, for instance, in his “His-
tory of the Caribby Islands,” tells us
that ‘the Caribbeans have tested of all
the nations that frequented them and
affirm that the IFrench are the most
delicate and the Spaniards are hardest
of digestion.” Laborde also, in one of
his jaunts in St. Vincent, appears to
have overtaken on the road a com-
municative Carib who was beguiling
the tedium of his journey by gnawing
at the remains of a boiled human foot.
This gentleman only ate Arrowaks.
“Christians,” he said. “give me the
bellyache.”
Queer Qualification.
The enthusiasm of the thoroughgoing
lover of Browning takes some surpris-
ing turns. The author of “In a Tuscan
Garden” tells a story concerning Dr.
Furnival, one of the founders of the
Browning society.
A young relative of the Englishwo-
man in London was looking out at one
time for bachelor chambers in a block
of flats. The secretary of the company
to whom they belonged intimated that
lishwoman’s name as one and Dr. Fur-
nival for the other.
