her unexpectedly on the uncertain
plank sidewalk of Fort Erie, he smolr-
ing a cigar. Whom this nightmare
presented itself to him, he resolved
never to touch cigar again; but he
well knew that the best resolutions
fade away when man is excited with
two or three glasses Of liquor.
When Mrs. Bartlett resumed conver-
sation with the professor, Yates looked
up at young Hiram and winked. The
boy flushed with pleasure under the
compreheusiveness of that wink. 1t
included him in the attractive halo of
crime that enveloped the fascinating
personality of the man from New York.
1t seemed to say:
'That's all right, but we are men Of
the world. We know"
The tea dishes having been cleared
away, Yates got no more glimpses Of
the girl through the open door. He
rose from his lowly seat and strolled
towards the gate with his hands In his
pockets. He remembered that he had
forgotten something and cudgeled his
brains to make out what 1t was. He
gazed down the road at the house Of
the Howards, which naturally brought
to his recollection his meeting with
the young girl in the road. There was
pang Of discontinue in this thought,
when he remembered the accomplish
ments attributed to her by Mrs. Bart
lett. He recalled his condescending

Writing, writing" said Yates,
airily--"articles that make dynasties
tremble next morning, and which call
forth apologies or libel suits after
wards, as the case may be-"
"Mr. Bartlett has been good enough"
said the professor, changing the sub
ject, ito say we may camp in the
woods at the back OF the farm

1t certainly is lovely spot"
"We're awfully obliged, Mr.. Bart
lett" said Yates. 'Of course Remark
went out there merely to show the
difference between the ant and the
butterfly You'll find out what a
humbug he Is by and by, Mrs. Bart
lett, He looks honest; but you wait"
II know just the spot for the tentI
cried young Hiram-''down in the hol-
low by the creek. Then you won't
need to haul water"
"Yes, and catch their deaths Of fever
and ague," said Mrs. Bartlett. Malaria
had not then been invented. "Take
my advice, and put your tent-if you
will put 1t up at all-on the highest
ground you can find. Hauling water
won't hurt you"
II agree with you, Mrs. Bartlett. 1t
shall be so. My friend uses no water
you ought to have seen his bill at the
Buffalo hotel. 1 have 1t somewhere,
and am going to pin it up on the out
side OF the tent as a warning to the
youth Of this neighborhood-a what
water / need can easily carry up
from the creek"
The professor did not defend him
self and Mrs. Bartlett evidently took a
large discount from all that Yates
said. She was shrewd woman.
After breakfast the men went out to
the barn. The horses were hitched to
the wagon, which still contained the
tent and fittings. Young Hiram threw
an ak and spade among the canvas
folds, mounted to his place, and drove
up the lane leading to the forest, fol-
lowed by Yates and Remark on foot,
leaving the farmer in his barnyard
with CHEEKY good-by which he did
not see fit to return.
Young Hiram knew the locality well,
and drove direct to an ideal place for
camping. Yates was enchanted
When the tent was put up he gazed
In enthusiastic rapture around him
and upbraided Remark because he
took the sylvan situation so coolly.
"Where are your eyes, Renpy?" he
cried, "that you don't grow wild when
you look around you? See the dappled
sunlight fltering through the leaves;

the branches; hear the trickle of the
brook down there; notice the smooth
bark Of the beech and the rugged COW

It Is said that the practice of the

were called by the Romans Julia Of
Pompey and octavia OF Cicero, and In
later times married women In most

At the last meeting Of the Society for
the Study OF Comparative Psychology
in Montreal Mr.. Anderson gave some
Of his personal experiences In conneo-
ton with the lower animals, among
others rather interesting one con-
eerning dog In his possession.
The dog had conceived q great liking
for one OF the members Of the house
hold, and nothing pleased him better
than being allowed 10 rest at the door
Of his room. The room was situated
at the end Of hallway, which was
covered by oilcloth, consequently any
person immediately below could hear
the dog when It's claws came In contact
with the glazed surface. One day the
dog, as usual, had taken up It's place at
the bedroom door, but was sent down
stairs. In little while he was heard
again crossing the oilcloth upstairs.
Before removing this time he was given
good scolding, and 1t was easily seen
from his looks that he was ashamed of
himself.
One Of the members of the household
went into an opposite room, leaving
the door slightly open, and awaited
developments.
In short time the dog was seen ap-
preaching, walking with peculiar
Oait: the whole weiOht of his bodv wa a
placed on the ball Of his foot, and it
was impossible to hear his claws touch

humorously, that being one Of a set Of
jokes which suited various occasions.
Yates took his place near Miss Kitty,
who looked as fresh and radiant rs

II hope haven't kept you waiting
long" he said.
no fear,r cried Mrs Bartlstt, "If
breakfasts minute later than seven
o'clock we soon hear Of 1t from the
men-folls. They get precious hungry
by that time"
"By that timer echoed Yates. "Then
do they get up before SevenS"
"Lswst what farmer you would
make, Mr.. Ystesl" exclaimed Mrs. Bart
lett, laughing. why, everything's
done about the house and barn, horses
fed, COWS milked ed-everything. There
never was better motto made than
the one you learnt when you were o
boy and like as not have forgotten all
about:

I'm sorry you don't believe In 1t, Mr..

some loftiness, "but I'd like to see .

basis. Pm healthy enough, quite as
wealthy as the professor here, and
every one will admit that I'm wiser
than he is, yet never 60 to bed until
after two o'clock, and rarely wake be-

Kitty laughed at this, and young
Hiram looked admiringly at the New
Yorker, wishing he was as clever.

tone to her, and recollected his anxiety
about the Jug. The jugl That was what
he had forgotten. He flashed glance
at old Hiram, and noted that the farm
or was looking at him with something
like reproach In his eyes. Yates moved
his head almost imperceptibly to-
wards the barn, and the farmers eyes
dropped to the floor Of the veranda.
The young man nonohalantly strolled
past the end Of the house.
81 guess I'll go to look after the
horses" said the farmer, rising.
Here's looking sS you," said Yates,
strolling into the barn, taking tele-
scopic metal cup from his pocket and
clinking it into receptive shape by a
jerk of the hand. He offered the now
elongated cup to Hiram, who declined
any such modern Improvement.
Help yourself in that thing. The
jugs good enough for me-"
Three fingers" Of the liquid gurgled
out into the patented vessel, and the
farmer took the jug after furtive look
over nlb BnOulQer. y.
"Well, here's luck" And the news
paper man tossed of the potion with
the facility of long experience, shut
ting up the dish with his thumb and
finger, as If IL were Q metallic opera
hat.
The farmer drank silently from the
jug itself. Then he smote In the cork
with his open palm.
Better bury it In the wheat bin," he
said, morosely. "The boy might find it
If ye put it among the onts-feedin' the
horses, ye know"
Mighty good place" assented Yates,
as the golden grain flowed in wave
over the. submerged jar II say, old
man, you know the spot; you've been
here before"
Bartlett's lowering countenance in
dicated resentment ut the imputation,
but he neither affirmed nor denied.
Yates strolled out of the barn, while
the farmer went through small door
way that led to the stable. A moment
later he heard Hiram calling loudly to
his son to bring the pals TO water tho
horses.
Evidently preparing an alibi,"
said Yates, smiling to himself, as he
sauntered towards the gate.

of the Associated press, upon the sub
ject OF the recent naval battle fought
between Chinese and japanese war
shipS Lord Charles Beresford said
that the Yalu engagement was splen-
did object lesson which emphasized
most strongly the imperative Necessity
Of having ar adequate number of
cruisers He added that had the Jap
anese been able TO call into use Il suffi
cient number OF cruisers they could
have engaged the Chinese at sea when
the latter were hampered by the trans
ports their feet was conveying.
Similarly the Chinese with suffi
cient number OF cruisers could have
fought the japanese at sea instead of
from the shore where their maneuyers
were impetisd- The cruisers also could
have warned Admiral Ting of the ap-
proach of the Japanese fleet early
enough for him to prevent the latter
from reaching his transports
Continuing. Lord Beresford said that
the accounts Of the battle 50 far re-
ceived bear out the opiniou Of the ua-
val experts who hold that the power
OF offense of modern fleets Is infinitely
superior to their defensive powers and
that many ships must almost certainly
be lost or crippled when fleets are
equally matched. Thus. he said In con
clusion. in future naval wars the issue
must depend largely upon the class
and strength OF the different vessels
of either side.
