That was enough. The newspaper
man jerked out his gun and covered
the stranger, with the remark: up

strangers arms shot up into space and
he was speechless. The newspaper man
then, keeping his gun ''at aim" began
backing down toward the street corner
as rapidly as possible. As soon as he
had reached the corner he suddenly
jammed the revolver down into his
pocket, wheeled and started away at a
gait that would have made Directum
ashamed OF himself. His home was only
a half block away, and when he bolted
into the house and had the door bolted
behind him he told his wife the story Of
his having been assaulted by footpad,
and expatiated upon his remarkable
prowess in putting the highwayman to
flight.
AS he came from his house the next
morning 20 go 20 his daily toll he was
joined by his next-door neighbor, a we'll

credited with highly aesthetic tastes,

taking the place, as il does, of both

of both microscope and telescope with
an automatic combination that is mar

Of anxiety, toll and care. We must re-

Nothing Is more moderated than the
individuality of birds. Birds differ in
characteristics and mental nabits.
Those who study will be able 10 tell
