The fact is nl w a y emphasized when the modern black art is prac ticed that the bone mnst belong- to a chicken, but ns no Other fowl not excepting" the bird of America, the turkey poysesses such Rii appendix, the distinction seems un necessary. The bone on the pyramid wan res pited from destruction by the white finders of a ffirl, who dressed it and hunif it over the outside door. When It had been lodged there an hour a man camp in. lie was tall, and as he came under the '"conjure" he brushed It with his head and dislodged it. "Well, you're it." laughed the g"irl. DAVID. s he stooped and picked it from the floor. "That is the tit'Kt time you ever came under the wishbone." "Will you break it with me, Neil? Vou know I believe in it a an omen. We will both wish, and the one that gets the wUh piece. jimst tell the other what wish was made." "Oh, let's tell beforehand. Health and prosperity is all I wish for. Am t not moderate?" "t wish," Raid the man, "that we are married at Christmas, and live happily ever." "That sounds like the ending of a dim'e novel love story. See that we are not even engaged, it would take stronger force than that of a wish bone to marry us by Christmas." "Nell, will you marry me?" 8he hafl waited seven years for this, and now that it had come it NKI.U was most welcome, and it angered her that a miserable chicken bona could supply an opportunity for this laggard in love. A panorama of war Hushed aertis.H her hori.on, the glint of arms, the flutter of Hags, a sol dier promoted for bravery, then, for getfulness and .ilcncp. She looked at the serious, stolid face of the man as he stood holding ihe arbiter of hu man destinies between thumb and forefinger, and decided: "Yes, David, but please do not glye your chicken bone too much credit you niuy not u't your wish after all." trunk Treadwcll, Hs-nnott, la., was troubled with ki.luuy distant) f ir two yt'His. lin wrih'Ki "1 hud taken sevnra.1 kidney rtunediei, but with littln benefit.

We will keep the pieces, and they will tiring us good luck. I have always had the greatest faith in wishbone omens." Vet it was necessary that It should fall and strike you before you ac cepted its dictum," suggested Neil. A' superstitious man is far more rabid in lii beliefs than one of t lie opposite sex. just as a man in loe is very much more engrossed by the tender passion. David Wilson wrapped the bone of fate in a tissue paper covering and laid it away carefully among his cherished possessions. Nell dropped hers into her glove Imit, wished the chicken that owned it had ne'.er been born, rated herself for a fool, and sat down to hnve a good ciy. "ICngaged to David Wilson! Why, I might as well be engaged to father. And all I'm doing it for is to show Itnnsom Hale that I am not breaking my heart for him, even if he is wear ing flue new shoulder straps. The mean thing never to write a word I Oh, David, you superstitious, good,' old, stupid, how will 1 get you off my hands? Seven years of acquaintance ship ought to count for something. Oh, chicken bone, engine of destiny, how hate you!" And the next day, when Cnpl. Hale called on .Nell and asked her to marry him, she consigned all chicken bone wishes to perdition, while she made a clean breast of her affair with Da vid. And what the captain meant by noiiiing her in his iirms whHe he heard her story can easily be guessed. J hen they went into session as a committee of ways and means to cir cumvent the plans of destiny set in motion hy that wishbone. Capt. Hale was in favor of an elope ment, leaving David out of the race, but Nell was much too conservative for that. She preferred strategy, and n brilliant coupe de grace. A week later David presented him self in a state of abject de pressiun. I ve lost my luck," he said, in crane- edged tones. 'Lost on a business deal," suircest- ed Nell, warily. !o. Lost my wishbone. I put it away carefully and now it cannot be found high or low. It has disap peared as if by magic. "And you are sure no one was In your room?" '.No one but my washerwoman, and I don't know what she wanted there. Hut she would have no object in steal ing a wishbone." "No, nnd there would be no nini-ie in a wishbone that would let be stolen. Oh, David, that Is a bad omen. We must call our engagement off until you find it. Had luck will follow if we persist in disobeying the omen. We are up against It now." . "I know it, I feel it in my bones," said poor, victimized David, mourn fully. "Nell, dear, do you think it pos sible that the cat ate it?" "No!" Nell was shaking with laugh ter, which by a desperate effort she changed into nervous agitation. "I feel that it may menn a warning, and we mnst obey, we cannot throw our selves agninst an oracle. Yon see it wan not intended that we should marry." The envoy of fate was never found, as the wicked girl knew right well it never would be, for by her own scheme it wag abstracted. So cleverly urn sue piay on tne superstitious na ture of David that he not only for gave her for marrying Capt. Hale, but was himself at the wedding as best man.
