bitter tones, "that the mill is mort

Placing her carefully on a fauteuil,
Lord Traverse Bay kissed the tear

row $3.50 from his mother. with which
to get the marriage license. AS the
sound of his footsteps died away,
Dunstan Quirk entered the room

he opened the door and smiled family.

When the Dunkers of Indiana made
up their minds that the study Of gram
mar was frivolous, they protested
against their children being taught it
in the public schools. The teachers
refused to be bound by the protest,
whereupon an appeal was made to the
state superintendent, who has decided
that teachers may omit the offensive
study. He insists, however, that they
shall lmpart orally to all bunker pu-
pills "all that is practical on the SUBJ
jeCt."

HAZEL OUIRK.

"Well, Hazel, don't you think you
had better shift onto the other knee for
awhile!''
Hazel Quirk looked quickly up at
Lord Traverse Bay, the love-light
beaming forth from her eyes with
tender radiance that told more plainly
than could any words the deep affec
ton she bore him, but there was in the
look pleading usefulness, a sense of
trust(ul security, that touched his very
heart. She did not speak, but, plac-
ing a dimpled arm around his neck,
drew his face down and kissed him with
a soft, melting, three-for- 5o-cents kiss
that she kept on tap only for him, and
then her eyes shone forth again the
love that lips could not utter, while the
dropping mouth quivered as if in pain.
"You are not well, darling" said
Percy Hanafn, (his weekday name)
in agonized tones, the words nearly
choking him as he spoke. Let me
bring your viniagret or bottle OF
seltzer---a quaff or two of that would
revive you"
Blu, Hazel only laid her head on his
shoulder, wound her white arms
around his neck and began to sob as
if her heart would break.
"My God! Hazel, what have done
to cause you this bitter anguish. Speak,
my angel, speak; and tell me wherein
the fault lies. Demand of me any sac
rifice, no matter how great, and it shall
be cheerfully made. l have large,
red apple in my overcoat pocket, and
it shall be yours-all yours, if you will
only speak"
Slowly from the shoulder-blade rose
the little head with its mass of brown
curls, slowly turned the pure, beautiful
face of Hazel Quirk, until Percy again
looked down into those eyes that had
so lately beamed forth merry glances,
and saw once more the little nose that
had so often burrowed in his vest
"You will surely keep your promise"
Hazel asked between the convulsive
sobs that seemed to be breaking her
heart, and seriously disarranging her
liver.
"Of course l will, my sweet, replied
Percy. "You shall have the apple"
: "And is it a really and truly red
one ?'' asked the girl, again sobbing
as If her heart would break,
"Yes, my love-"
"Hope to die if it amt ?"-this be-
tween the sobs.
eyes," said Percy.
"Criss-cross 60
ayes, dear"
"Welr'-and here she broke down
afresh, but finally mastered her grief
and spoke-"Papa has soaked the
MILL"
what! - exclaimed Percy in tones
Of astonishment, "soaked the mill that
has been his home SO long?'
"Same MILL" replied Hazel, wiring
ing out her handkerchief and fishing
up dry one from the sleeping-car OF
her polonaise.
"Well, that is sad indeed" said
Percy, shut what matters that TO us e"

earned his pension from the fact that
he has not given to the people the ten

it. He has given about seven years.

A day or two ago widow living on

anonymous letter, and she. wanted the
officer to trace out the guilty party if it
