Across the Kissing waters rolled.
And now. at last, the air is free:

Is stretched around my shattered bark.

From beacon fire or signal bell,
And cold and bitter FER my heart
The deadly waters rise and swell.
But 10! light on oceans verge
Shines treinulous through rosy mist,
And necks with red the thrObbing surge,
And warns the clouds to amethyst

And fog and darkness hid my way,

1t was but the very next day after
the "ad'' appeared that q wagon drove
down to Twinrip with the father and
mother of the baby.
Didn't they cry and kiss and hug the
lost. the found child! They lived on a
farm in Palestine, a few miles up the
river. A little stream ran into the
Ohio close by their door, and the baby
was often tied in her carriage and
placed on the bridge under the charge
of faithful dog. It was great amuse-
ment for her to watch the ducks and
geese in the water. A sudden rise
swept bridge and all away. Search had
been made everywhere, but nothing
had been heard of little Minnie. 1t had
seemed like a return from death to read
Connors advertisement.
And was not the brave lad that saved
their child a hero! Again and again
they made him tell ali about the rescue.
Of course they had to take their daugh-
ter home, but they made Connor prom

a watch came by express to the Magan
homestead, and when Connor opened
the hunting-case cover, after changing
its position till he could see something
besides his own twisted face reflected
in it, and after wiping away the spray
that would come into his eyes, he read:

At the sill of the Magan homestead
the flood had stopped, hesitated, and
then gone back. Maggie always said
she knew it would-they always had
good luck. The little woman was hap
pier than ever when she thought of the
whole train of people that might have
been thrown into the ditch-of the cut
off legs, arms and heads, and the poor
creatures without them that might
have been cast bleeding on the track,
if it had not been for her faithful old
Tim-and of the home with niver a
baby, and of the darlint that would
have been drowned in the bottom of
the Ohio with her ears and eyes full
of mud, if it had not been for her slip
of boy.
As for Connor, he felt as if that
bright-eyed girl belonged to him, and
now that he had q watch towards it,
he seemed almost a ready-made Con-
ductOr.
When the waters subsidized and he
went back to school, he studied with a
will. His percentage grew higher.

look to any unfair combination with other
