him off on to the floor, but the dog was
not to be offended so easily. He re-

got tired of it.

reader should know. This rope led
along the roof of the house to a tower

burglar-alarm, a contrivance not un-
common in that part of New Jersey.
There had recently been great bur
glar scare in that region. and all the
women were fl l.ghtened out of their
wits. So were many of the men. but
they did not say so much about it.
Several of the principal householders
had equipped their houses with bur-
glar alarms like Mr. Trapp's: and a
sort of vigilance committee had been
organized whose members were
pledged to take up arms and respond
to any nocturnal summons. The bur-
glar bells were usually provided with
two ropes, leading to different parts of
the houses, so that if the burglars
overpowered one of the bell-ringers.
the other could keep the merry peal
a-going. In Mr.. Traps house we
have found one of the ropes. The
other led TO Mr.. Traps own bedroom.
OF course Bill knew nothing about
this. He simply tied the rope around
the dogs neck and went to bed. Pres
emily the dog got chilly by the half
open window. and made "a jump for the
bed. Immediately from without came
the clang of the big bell. The dog

ued to ring. Mr. Trapp was awakened.
He heard the bell.
Burglars he yelled, and grabbed
the rope which led to his room. And
now the bell rang out with furious
rlamor. Screams resounded through
the house. They reached the ears OF

: lcorYRIeHr, 1881


A rather remarkable popularity
about Washington's pretty girls is
that they are not Washington girls.
Like Washington society they are of a
somewhat composite order. Many of
the fair maids, 'tis true, have but dim
recollections of any other habitation
than Washington. and if sentiment
could control the location of ones
domicile, and "home" be, in fact,
where the heart is the nations cap
ital might claim them for its own.
So it happens that from Maine to
California, from the frozen north land
to the sunny south, the fairest Of the
nation are gathered. The daughters
Of statesmen become Washington
bellies.
