Though my guilt was apparent, to hide it
But the obdurata master a confession enacted

That fateful black putson,
That plain rubber button placed on the stove.
Twas a day in December, and the wind fiercely
whirled is white binding snow sheets forbod-

While inside 'Oid ITonside" with red warmth

And a peace-bearing tranquilness quelled
Now the time was full golden, and with no pre-.

But the wide,awake master OWNED my inten-
As that plain rubber button placed on the

That eyeless coat button.
That somber-hued button,
That plain rubber button placed on the stove.
Like paTentless waif was led to the master,
Where well-seasoned beech held the balance
Of power,
And the way I was punished-the pain and dis

As the paia-ladsn red he persisten,ly drove

CHEATING UNCLE SAM.
A New Device of Picture Dealers to ss
Customs Duties

/ have learned lately Of new derice
to deceive the Custom House authorities
says writer in the New York .Ssar. To
what extent it has been worked / do not
know. The scheme is this: The American
purchaser of foreign picture Of value
sends it to an artist in Paris-one gerer-
ally who IS under some pecuniary obliSa-
ton to him and who cannot refuse the
service-has him cover it with .'sizep-a
size made with common -four paste prob
ably would be suffieient-and then has him
paint upon this new sized" surface more
or less Indifferent picture. This, ffthe
artist IS an American, may be passed
through the Custom House free of duty
upon Consular certificate. l am told,
however, that the most popular thing IS to
have copy Of some well-known picture
painted on the sized surface. This NAV
be brought in az very low valuation as a
copy After it comes into the possession
OF the owner in America il is a compara-
lively easy matter to remove the outside
picture and the size, when the original
masterpiece shines out in all its splendor-
more attractive than ever to the owner
because il has cost him 10 duty.
But isn't il possible to detect a picture
'.done up" in this way?
No, it is almost impossible The outside
picture is apparently honest. There is
nothing about 1t to attract suspicion. If
the CUSTOM House authorities undertook
10 apply tests and should ruin some honest
picture by mistake, it might be very SER
ious matter for them. The fact is, the
practica! smuggling Of important pictures
can only be provided against in the same
manner that the smuggling of diamonds is
rendered almost impossible. The United
States must have agents alert enough TO
know what IS purchased abroad and by
whom. Then it must have officials here
who are sufficiently interested in their
business to look after and take note
of prominent foreign pictures which have
no Custom-house record. Every foreign
picture brought into this country ought to
bear Custom-house stamp, to prove hav-
ing paid duty, and number for future
Identification. When the practice of fraud
could be shown, adequate penalties should
be inflicted, and there also should be some
supervision over the Custom-house author
tiles, some of whom sometimes have
seemed inclined TO favor some importers
more than others.

II was only brief. brief story,
Yet each word sent chill to my heart,
fond hopes were crushed and blighted,
Enshrouding my LIE in shadows dark;
FOR knew ere the story was finished,
How desolate would be my life,
Yet gave no sign OF the anguish
With which my soul was rife.
The story, though brief brought sorrow,
And listened with aoated breath
As each sentence fell from loving lips
That spoke so calmly OF death;
1et the words so brayely spoken
Seemed TO se-e both heart and brain,
For knew, ere the story was finished,
That should ne'er be happy again.
Il was only brief, brief story.
Repeated so tender and low,
But every word sunk deep in nv heart
How deep, only God can know;
