Thn pnn tlmr lowered its head nnd began to sneeze and si in file. Hally brnnght tho olnb down ngnin, this time on tlm pan ther's hoad, nnd the groat cat sprang one side and ran tip a dead hemlock trea. Thinking that she had scared her hungry foe from the ohaso, Bally started to run on her way, when she saw the panther get ready to leap from the trea Hho tnrned and faced it again jnst as the furious aiilmnl sprang. Rally jump ed aside. The panther alighted on tho ground at her foot, and quick as a flash nnd with the force of a trip hammer the big club dnsoonded on its nock. Tb panther settled down flat on the ground under tho blow, and two more strokes of the olub ended its career. "Hally was protty woll flnstrated by this lively bout with the panther and was wiping horfuce with her apron and taking a breathing spell when she heard a groat whining in the direction of the dead hemlock. Looking iu that direc tion, bIio saw too good sized panther kittens tmnbling out of a hollow in the troe trunk. Hally bod her spnnk op now. Hhe believed, and no doubt she was right, that the two baby panthers belonged to the panther that hud been making ber Jonrney so unpleasant for her, and she mode np her mind to have a little more satisfaction by knocking thoiu on the head too. Hhe was walking over (o the tree to finish her work when a ye) ; that almost made her hair rise broke on her ears, and looking down the path she was alarmed to see another panther, bigger than the one she had killed, coining fiercely toward her. This she set down as the dead one's mate. Hho was pleased to notioe that his ad vanoe waa somewhat hampered by the foot that one of his fore legs waa off at the knee. "Be was plainly bound for fight, however, in spite of that handioap, and came right on, yelling at every humpy bound be made. Bally oonolnded to try the same taotios on this panther aha had on the other one, and she net up the most unearthly yelling and rushed to meet the ugly beast. This surprised him. Be stopped, but kept on glaring. The next thing he knew he got whaok over the nose that dropped him flat in the path. Sally didn't give him time to reouperate, and in less than five second; had his brains scattered to the four wind. The two young panthers had by this time oome out into the path and were huddled at their dead mother's side, licking her and crying moat plte ously. This touched Sally's heart, and she determined to spare the lives of the kittens and take them home. She stoop led down to stroke one of them, whan it turned on her, and quick aa lightning lunk the sharp claws of one paw doep, into her hand. Sally thou knocked bot'i of the youngsters in the head and hi the unprecedented reoord of killing four .panthers n lef than tea minutes. .Sally went on and did her errand and told what luck she hail run against on thn wny over. Ynnug Jim Hcotleld, son of tlm tirighhor wlinro Hally had thn er rand, went buck with her, and they Ingged tlm panthers in to Hally' fa ther's.

"What' the matter?" asked the ar chitect "Too elaborate," was the reply; "too much unnecessary fancy work to suit me." "No more than ia usual on first class buildings," protested the architect. "What would you have left off?" "The ornamental work at the top." "But, my dear air," protested the architect, "that is quite the thing now.

Presently the moon sank behind the dark billows of the cloud bnuk and tho world was wrapped in silence and dark ness.

Two Nun Aiktfd Arivlna Alinnt It and Then Iti'JnptPd It. There is no uso of opposing a love af fair, not even when the actors play into your own hands. I know what I'm say ing. I've hud the experience with two the young and the old man. My flist experience was with a young man, who didn't know his mind and asked me what he hud better do, and I, like a fa ther, told him he'd better not marry the girl he was courting. He went right off and married her. An old man from the country came into the car where I wus reuding my morning paper and sat down at my side. "Beg your pardou, sir," he suid. "Did you ever court a grass widdor?" "Oh, yes," I said. "I've conrted a dozen or more. Why?" "Did you ever marry ono?" "Yes." "Waller, p'r'aps you kin give a chap a point or two?" "Oh, certainly, all the points you want." "Are they any different from other women?" "Hay, old fellow, I've courted all sorts of women, both married and un married, and they are all just alike. They do all the courting aud generally propose before you have courted them a week." "Waller, what' your opin'n?" "It is this the man who marries one is a juckass." The old fellow scratched hi head for moment, and after he had got hi idea racked in the right spot he said : "Wal ler, hain't I as muob oonstitutionally right to be a jackass as you have? Wal ler, I guess, and I'm goin 'cept her pro posal by wire. Write it oat for me, won't you?" New York Herald. LIdooId's Modmty.

On North ('lark street there is an un dertaker whose fucn uml bearing arc pe culiarly adapted to his bnsineis tall, thin, with a countenance lialiilnally tliouglitriil, almost iiieiiinchnly, nnd iu addition his shoulders stoop, which niils in giving him the nir of a man who Is burdened with his own or other people's Borrows. Hut behind the mournful ex terior there lies n quiet humor, n little grewsomo perhaps, but humor neverthe less. Tii is undertaker boards at a hotel jnst across the street, uml not long since as he walked into I ho ofllco one evening about dinner time hn observed leaning against thn end of the desk a cadaverous looking man whom his experienced eyes informed him was rapidly npprouching tho last stages of consumption. As he passed the desk hn remarked in an un dertone to the clerk, "I'll get that fel low pretty soon. ' ' Having finished his dinner, be return ed to the ofllco, nnd seating himself in ono of thn chairs where ho conld watch tho door of his establishment he fell In to n dreamy mood. Perhaps it was mem ories of younger days made him senti mental. At nil events he began hum ming some old ballads, Tho tune of the old song, "I'm Wuiting, My Durling, For Thee," came to his mind. Ho hntn med it over again and again, trying to recall the words. A man seated in front of him seemed to be growing restless. Suddenly the wrn-ds came to him, and in a louder tonn he sang thn first mens- V ure, "I'm wuiting, my darling, for thee." That was as far as he got. The man in front tnrned round it was the consumptive his bright eyes flushing as in husky but angry tones he suid, "I can take a joke as well as any man, but when an undertaker sits behind me aud sings 'I'm Waiting, My Darling, For Thee,' it's altogether too much." The undertaker arose slowly, and his face resumed its mournful expression as he walked ont of the door aud toward his place of business. Chicago Times-Herald.
