arrived at the starting place first
would win the gold medal. One hour
passed, then two. Fifteen minutes
later, away off in the distance, one
could hear the click of the wheels as
they revolved, and soon two wheel
men hove in sight, one being college
boy and the other Len-with Len in
the rear. Nearer and nearer they
came, and still Len showed no signs
of advancing. When within seventy
five feet Of the stopping point, Len
drew himself up and with stern tones
said, CHOW, Sally!' Like magic
the machine darted ahead and re-
NAMED so until it passed the goal.
He was greeted with cheer upon cheer.
Len was congratulated by the pro-
fessor and awarded the medal. The
boys clustered around him, all saying

Joe and Jenny

Have any Of our young readers no.
ticed an odd difference which there is
between the generosity of boys and
that of girls?
Joe and Jenny, for example, are
walking to school and pass cat that
has been hurt, or bird with a broken
wing. In almost every case the girl
will stop to pet and care for the hurt
creature. She lavishes time and ten
derness upon it, while the boy, with
a shrug, runs on and thinks no more
of it.
1t is Jenny who will bring flowers
to the invalid at home; who will hang
over her couch, trying to be useful;
who will gladly sacrifice play or sleep
in order to help her.
Joe, as a rule, hates sick room,
shirks the sight of pain, and has little
sympathy to give to any misfortune
or grief.
But if Joe and Jenny have each
$40 to spend, it will usually be the
girl who will hoard the pennies, or
who will be hard and sharp in driving
bargain; who will be unreasonable
in expecting too much for her money
from tradesmen.
Yet If you probe the matter to the
bottom you will probably find that
naturally Joe is not more liberal than
his sister, or that Jenny really is more
affectionate than Joe. But their
training has been i'll some respects
different. The boy has been given
money, and has formed a habit of
using it more freely; into the girls
indoor life has been brought leisure
and habits of kindness. Each
gives Of that which previous training
makes most easy and natural. The
boy, his loosely held money; the girl,
her time and sympathy.
The defects in Joe and Jenny would
be lessened we're their education in
some respects the same if gentler
and kindlier influences were brought
into the boys daily life, and if the
girl were early taught the use and
abuse of money.-Youth's Com
'panion.

LEN DALTON'S RIDE.

LEN DALTON'S RIDE.
It was Saturday morning, and
everybody was in anticipation Of the
great coming bycicle race.
For two weeks back the talk of tie
day had been about the coming race,
and the little town of Hanover had
been thrown into the hottest heat of
excitement. At the beginning of my
story there had been six entries, and
by noon two more had joined. All
of the boys were students at Hanover
College, and each had great hopes of
winning the handsome gold medal
offered to the best rider by Professor
Waltes, the president of the col
lege.
But stopl Did l say all the boys
went to the college? Yes, all save
one. He was a lad of fifteen years,
of poor family, and had taken all of
his hard-earned savings for at least
two years, to purchase his sturdy two
wheeled companion, and now he and
his byclcle were like Damon and
Pythias, one and inseparable. His
name was Lenias Dalton, but the boys
called him "Len," simply for friend
ships sake. Though Len was quiet
lad, the boys all liked him, becaus of
the queer ways he had in regard to
his dumb companion, which he always
treated as though it were a
thing Of life, and l am sorry
to say that they made it hard some
times for poor Len, the way they
leased him about it, although they
thought a great deal of him. But
boy like they thought it real sport to
spoke" fun at him.
Slowly the morning rolled away,
and the afternoon silently took its
place. Crowds were seen gathering
on one of the front streets of the
town, for soon the race would begin
and all wished to witness the COM
mencement of il. They stood in
groups chatting and eagerly waiting
the starters stern command. Len
was quietly leaning against'the wall Of
a neighboring store, and by him
stood his bycicle.
Suddenly these words rang out
sect Ready" Len was seen to
shift uneasily, pull himself into o
standing position, and slowly mount
his steed. Then came the word "Go!"
Len, with long sweeping strides,
soon disappeared in the distance,
leaving behind him crowd Of open.
mouthed admirers watching with in.
terest the receding figures.
The road selected for the boys to
run upon was narrow level one,
which led to a town almost twin tc
the little city Of Hanover. This was
the first goal Of the boys, where they
would be allowed, by watcher there

4 Man Shot.

On last Saturday night at nine
O'Clock, Mr.. Miles Jackson, one of
Mr.. j. III. Royals statesmen, was
shot through the neck. The bullet
came from 80 calibre revolver i'm
the hand of one W. Ii. Bender, of
New River. 1t was accidental, but
came near being fatal. In short it
was hair-breadth escape. The bull
let struck the threat just under the
chin, passed to- the right side, just
missing the large artery, and lodged
in the fieshy part of the back of the
neck. The ball was probed for by
the doctors but has not yet been re-
moved. Mr.. Bender was in town
with a load of fish from the Sound.
He went into the store of MIR. J. III.
Royal Saturday morning to pur-
chase pistol. Mr.. Switzerland,
one of the clerks, showed him re-
volver. He did not purchase, but
said he would call again that even
ing and take it if The clerk would
throw in a round of cartridges.
WhereupOn Mr.. Switzerland loaded
the revolver and laid it aside. In
the evening Mr.. Bender came in for
the revolver. No clerk was iiear,
so he stepped behind the counter and
picked it up and began to examine
it again. Mr.. Mile S Jackson started
down to that end of the store to
wait ON the man. When in few
feet of him the pist / fired. 1t was 8
double action and neither one knew
it was loaded.
Mr.. Jackson is doing we'll, and
will probably be up again in week
or so.
