tions, was in Jumps and had been carefully
scraped and cleansed. The man said that
he had 200 pounds of gum at home which he
proposed to market in Belfast. Gum from
young trees is the best, being of a lighter
color and of better flavor than that taken
from old trees, which is of darker shade and
has rank taste. There are men who make
gum gathering a business, ard derive a snug
little income from this source. A man in
Vermont employees several hands and ships
his product over the entire country. But the
spruce forests which grow this product are
failing and the day is not far distant when
there will be famine in genuine gum. The
iumberman is making enormous inroads into
the ranks of the trees and the spruce worm
has injured or killed thousands.

A Leap for a Dog.

GIVE me a ride mster?" small boy
wss trudging along by the roadside one day
recently. He was a meek unassuming lad.
His hair was long and sheared square across
behind. He wore baggy trousers and scuffed
the ground with pair of copper toed boots.
Behind this young America trotted snarling
terrier dog led by a cord An express wagon
pulled by long haired horse and driven by
little wiry man in the garb of a butcher
and with a monstrous quid of tobacco be-
meath one cheek was passing by. The request
was repeated in shrill voice. "Give me a
rider" The driver gazed around, pulled up
his horse and with sly twinkle in his left
eye exclaimed, Jump in youngster." Our
youthful acquaintance was not slow to obey.
In jify he was snugly established in the
ing on the ground led by the string. The
cruel butcher clucked. The team started.
He fished on the reins and applied the
braid" Faster and faster sped the flying
steed. The wagon rumbled along. Sudden
ly there came a howl from the rear.
The lad raised his voice and shouted
"Whoa. Whoa" The driver stolidly gazed
behind but made no effort to slacken speed
Fido had lost his equilibrium, ,tripped, and was
dragging in the mud, bowling and yelping.
Our young friend hesitated an instant, gave
leap, shot out from the wagon-body and turned
a complete somersault over the dog in the mud
and slush of the street. A moment after
wards small boy begrimed with dirt stood
BY the roadside. There was nothing meek
about him. He clenched his fist and gazed
gaze of unutterable scorn at an ex-
press wagon disappearing around corner,
muttering between his clenched teeth, III

Painfully Embarrassed
Detroit Free Press


A stranger who got into the Union depot
yards recently While trying to find the
railroad ferry slip. would have been run
down by one of the numerous switch loco
motives had not man at work in the
flour sheds seized him and pulled him Off
of the track. The stranger was greatly
confused and shaken up for q moment,
but after he had taken a seat on the plat
form and got his breath he called out:
my man. that was molly done / eX-
pect you can make use Of $1,000 in cash :"
''Well, perhaps"
The stranger breathed heavily, rubbed
his arm, and after a minute continued:
Yes, | feel just like making you pres
ent Of a thousand dollars"
This was painful reduction from his
first observation, but it wasn't for the
flOur-rOIler to find fault. He brushed
away at the strangers hat to get the dust
of, and as he handed it over he was in
formed:
II think you would know where to put
800 if you had it, eh?'
Il want nothing, sir. You were in
danger, and pulled YOU away"
But l shall insist upon your accepting
something. You certainly saved my life,
and 1 shouldn't begrudge SO"
He got out his wallet, which was crowd
ed tull of bills, and as he handled them
over he remarked:
"Ten dollars would buy your wife a
dress, and every time she wore it you
could think of me-
Yes, sir"
The bill came out but was quickly re-
placed, and after a minute spent in some
mental calculation, the stranger all at
once handed out 81 bill with the obser-
walton:
"Here, my man, 90 and get you new
hat, and rest assured l shall ever be CRATE
full to yOu.'
Then it was seen that the laborer was
painfully embarrassed. He shifted from
one leg to the other, looked up and down
the shed, and when asked the trouble he
replied:
"Please, sir, but haven't you any
small change about you? l think quar-
ter would be plenty Of reward for saving
your life.v
"a quarter! Well, considering the
railroad company pays you for the time
you We're hauling me around. maybe
that's enough. Here it is, and hope you
will make good use OF it. l guess / can
get down to the slip all right from here, but
II you happen to save my life again you
can look for half dollar at least.'
