appeared from his residence at Chilean

solved to take advantage of his absence to

cured the body of a man who had died of
the epidemic and had it clandestinely con-
veyed to her house.

There it was decently coffined, and she
said that her husband had died of cholera.
The nature of the disease did not allow of
the customary waking, and burial quickly
followed death. After erecting tomb
stone to his memory, the disconsolate
widow took legal steps, and soon obtained
possession of all the property. A few days
ago the husband, who had been carrying
on business in Conception, turned up in
Chilean Viejo, much to his wife's surprise

The moment the wagon passed out Of
sight of the house the demeanor OF its
young driver changed suddenly. He
seized the whip and drove at great speed
along the road, looking back anxiously
from moment to moment In this way
he reached small cross lane leading
toward a clump of pines, where he
turned in hastily, and hid his wagon I'M
der cover of the trees.
Soon after this was done Hexamer
came galloping rapidly on horseback
down the main road, and passing the
lane, went on toward town. Then Lewis
drove out again and followed leisurely,
laughing as if what had just taken place
was the most comical thing in the world.
He continued laughing until, a quar-
ter of an hour later. he met Hexamer
coming back, who also began laughing
as soon as he saw Lewis.
The two approached each other and
met.
"Good-day, sir,' said Lewis, with
mock gravity. Did you see boy driv-
ing wagon with a dog in it on your
way to town."
"You young reprobate" cried Hexam-
er. 81 know just how you did it-you
turned in by those pines. Why didn't
you give me the letter sooner? Why
didn't you tell me before you left that
Butler wants to keep two settlers, and
that he sent you out to sell me yours?''
"Why didn't 1? Because that was my
| part of the joke. Every stick has two
ends, you know"
ri believe you have had the best end

ing his head. well, I've got to lead
that dog back, and the question is
whether he will follow me. Do you war
rant him to be an obedient dog?"

next house and see if he doesn't"
"Ah! there you penetrate into the
great secret of dog life. Why, there's g
house right over there" The speaker
started in the direction indicated, but
pulled up again. "Look here, young
man." he cried, laughing and shaking
his whip back at Lewis, ''the next time
you want to play joke on me just tel
me of it in time, and I will give up be
forehand."
"You shall have weeks notice."
'"That's right. Good-bye."
'Good-bye," said Lewis.
