some OF the characters are drawn with
distinctness, and best of all keep within
the bounds of probability. The scene
is located in ireland and some of

which tells an interesting story OF Irish
life without pistol shot, the Spillng of

ancient host we'll up into the fir-covered

SAY old man, some of the boys say they
are going partners with you in your
bunk tonight. Don't let one Of them
sleep with you. The fact is, they are
covered with multitudinous little crea-
lures all in their suits of gray. The old
man then beseeched George to share his
couch for that evening. He reluctantly
complied. That is about all there is to
this little gem of a reminiscence. There
Is no moral to this--only just little bit
OF truth. The truth being, that George
was the only one in the party possessing
in feo simple the lively little creatures
no had warned the old man against,
George did not take all away with him
when he left camp. Whether this was
due to his generosity or carelessnasa or
