And in effect this was true. Pepe gathered
quickly handful of nettles and with these
cautiously approached the girl, with inten-
ton undoubtedly of slipping them into the
neck and breast of the sleeper.
''How she is going to scratchi'' he said to
himself enjoying in advance the torture he
was preparing for the maid
And approaching closely to her he pro-
ceeded with great caution to undo the hooks
of her waist. until he uncovered TO view the
finest modelled throat that ever unfolded to
the inimitable chisel of Phidias
Pepa had not awakened.
The young man smiled. opened the waist a
little farther extended his hands, full of the
singing netties, and Just as he was going to
stuff them in the bosom of the girl he stopped
as if paralyzed, his hand fell inert. little by
little, down by his side, and an indeilnable ex-
preston of astonishment, OF pleasure and sur
prise, spread over his picturesque counte-
nance.
What was passing through that boys soul?
Why did he hesitate then to disturb his
blood enemy?
Did he finally have pity on her who had so
often Knocked at him and whom he had NAL
treated and prosecuted with his mockery?
Were all the tricks of which he had been
the victim and at which the village boys had
constantly laughed forgotten?
Why did he remain there with his eyes and
ihoubh 81 WiuO opCu, du lulsiSt Vi v,
on his knees beside Pepa, adoring her as il
he was worshiping?
Nothing could be more natural
Until that moment Pepe had considered the
girl only as an evil chick, revolving, worthy
always OF kick, never of caress.
And now for the first time he noted that
that revolving creature and intractable was
conjunction of rare perfections
A new clearness Illuminated his spirit, and
in ecstatic contemplation he admired, without
well understanding it, the masterwork which
he had the good fortune to look upon
Weakened and disquieted by the sweet
science which he had learned SO quickly in
that moment, he studied with avidity of sight
and curiosity all the entertainments OF Pepita.
By virtue of contemplating all that he
understood that Pepa was adorable
An unknown sensation throbbed vigorously
in his heart and heated the blood in his veins.
He felt that there throbbed In his lips a
hundred years Of kisses, and the wild desire
caressed him to unload them on the smiling
mouth of the sleeper.
But at the same time. and unaccountably,
he was invaded by respecting fear, palpi-
tant, and he began with trembling fingers to
fasten, one by one, all the hooks which he
had loosened q little before with such sinister
intentions.
Scarcely had that operation terminated

frightfully abused. The men were arraigned
before Justice O'DonnelI, who held them for

Miss Waters is in critical state from the

the railroad station and had to be

Il Am Afraid" "

Translated from the Spanish by Almont Barnes
specially for THE TINES
The two were of the same hamlet
They haG been born in the same street, had
been brought up together and there had never
passed twenty-four hours without their seeing
each other twenty-four times
They were called Pepa and Pope.
And, nevertheless, they could not see each
other, us they say commonly
And more, they almost hated each other.
They sought each other frequently to insult
each other. to quarrel. and were not really
happy except when they had played. the one
upon the other, some annoying trick
And this had continued since their most
tender infancy, since they crept about to-
gether. since they walked among the uplifted
hills around their huddled native village
In time they were two young people.
Pepa was fifteen years old.
Pepe seventeen.
As children they scratched and tore each
others hair.
Grown older. they bit.
The fight was nearly always equal. What
1 cps hdu Vi duNdntdSe over Iepd LII strength,
resolution, Pepa equalized by dexterity and
malice.
In short, they were two bedeviled youths,
who seemed born exclusively to torment each
other.
And thus they had grown up, giving each
other cuffs and blows and pinches all over to
that age in which human beings appear born
more to caress each other than to quarrel.
Especially when they are of different SEX
Pepe was great boy, tall, plump. strong,
robust, could work for two and eat for four,
OF good appearance and red cheeks. and re-
tained some remains in his agreeable features
OF the feminine traces of adolescence.
AS Tor her, she was an adorable girl. n
brunette, lively, nervy, slight, with eyes and

little eyes always animated by the fire of life
and youth.

The Care of Carpenters Tools.

An eminent English authority gives the fol-
lowing advice on the care of plane irons:
"When a set of plane irons is French-polished
the irons look very fine for a time, but this
does not add to their durability or usefulness,
and does not, think. give them a workman
like appearance. Ny plan is to knock the
irons out, weigh them. then drop them into
the linseed oil barrel and let them stay there
a week. 1 then take them out and weigh
them. and am often surprised at the amount
of oil they have absorbed. The oil penetrates
the metal. and, as.it sets. it makes the irons
hard. and they may be depended on to keep
their shape. A bit of rubbing every day will
soon impart a fine luster. and they will not
show scratches or dents. as they would il

OH the frsr kiss

| OH the first kiss,
The girl felt violent tremor, inexplicable,
sweet and enchanting at the very same time,
and turning aside her face appeared to for
get the tempest in that supreme moment.
''Pepel Why do you press me so? What are
you doing?'' she asked with adorable candor.
''That is because love you, because love
you much," murmured the young man, re-
peating the caress.
''That you love me?"
s'Yes. love you; I love you, so-what shall
/ I say; as if you were my wife. Do you wish
that we should marry?'
Good God. what things you say! You
| make me afraid Let me be'
SIS that to say that you abhor me, that you
despise me?'
mo, 1 do not say that; butt
''Then. come, and do not fee from my
side.''
"Pepe,''
Made faint by the ardent caresses OF the
young man her voice was more and more
feeble and loving.
Soon their lips did not separate.
During one lightning flash which enveloped
them in its vivid flicker panetrant cry came
from the girl, perhaps of fear; but her COM
plants and sighs were lost among the rumb.
blings of the hoarse thunder which resounded
through the wide sky like the sublime tones
OF some gigantic organ.
After that silence reigned in the cabin, and
the powerful voice of the tempest also became
mute
Again the stars embellished the azure
space of the wide armament.
In the purified heavens the moon Slone
clear and Respondent, and the rays of silvered
light dispersed the dark shadows OF the silent
night.
The storm, brief as an Autumn hurricane,
had completely ceased.
Carrying upon his shoulder the basket of
Pepa and with his right arm enoircling her
waist, walked Pepe toward the village, reg
ulating his pace to hers, who travelled LAM
guldly with lowered eyes and mute lips.
- She was pale; it seemed as if u tear trem-
bled furtivey upon her eyelashes.
But he detained her, gazed at her, embraced
her. and then she smiled.
They entered the village. Pepe made pitt
full or tender at hearing sad sigh from his
companion, stopped her and asked;
''What is it? Are you incommoded by me?'
"Yes," said she softly, .smuch, Ol-but do
not fear-I adore you,'
And hand in hand they disappeared in the
shadow projected by the neighboring houses.
And they had detested each other since they
were childrenl
The warmth of only one kiss had sufflced to
melt the ice Of hatred Of a lifetime.

To Make a Blazer of Oysters.

Take one quart of solid oysters. pick each
one with fork into colander, and let them
drain as dry as possible. Then get your chat
ing dish as hot as possible and put in it
large piece of butter (about two ounces); let
it melt until it begins to sizzle: then turn in
your oysters. stirring them in the hot. melted
butter until the edges curl Have ready

to suit the taste. While the oysters are siz-
zling in the butter add half pint of thick
cream and the liquor of the oysters (be sure
to strain it first). thicken the whole with
tablespoonful of flour smoothly blended with
milk or water. and serve with toasted soda
biscuits. This makes royal supper after an
evenings entertainment.

Fish Sandwiches.

These are fish days. and a few swimmers
make very nice sandwiches. Salmon, bass,
halibut. founders and fresh cod are of this
class. Either boil or make outlets of the
meaty food. shred with fork to remove the
bones. have nicely buttered and salted bread
ready and spread the slice as thickly as it
will hold, on top sprinkle white pepper or
paprika and salt, celery tips or water-cress
leaves. cover with plain slice of bread and
butter, and any worker with an appetite will
enjoy it ut noon. Fish is n delicate food and
needs to be delicately handled. Cold fish Is
not as nice for sandwiches as the freshly
cooked articles.
