WHEN WB'UNS LIVED ON THE FARM.

Written for The COURIER.l
When we'uns lived out on tn farm
We had tn jolliest times,
An don't s'pose can write
Near all O. that fun into rhymes.
We got up at four every mornin'
No matter if it rained or it shined,
An just had fun from mornin' to night
Til very best fun you could find.
AS soon as tn grass in tn spring
Began to grow wavy ar tall,
We pulled off our Shoes an tarefooted ran;
Till away long late in tn fall.
An most every day we went swimmin'
Down in deep shady pool
Where tn willows kept swingin their branches
An maxim tn place so cool.
An out in tn orchard all shady,
We climbed up tn cherry trees tall,
An gathered from tween tn dark leaves
Tn reddest ripe cherries OF all.
An when tn young corn comm up
BY tn gophers was bein' dug out,
We took a tin pail to tn fields
An drownded them gophers all out.
We went away fshin' sometimes
An stayed tn whole day in tn sun,
An when we got home in tn evenin'
OF fish, we never had none.
I'll never forget such times as We had,
Our hearts were chock full of fun,
Jest like pail full of milk,
So full, some over must run.

AS happy an free from all harm,
As was such long time ago
When we'uns lived out on tn farm.

"He .tgna1cd to somcbodv."

"He stgnalc6 to somebody"
Dr. Maidhoff had raised the curtain to
the top and was standing in full view
with the lamp IN his hand, as if striving
to peer into the impenetrable drizzle on
the outside.
Standing there, he held the lamp above
his head, thus bringing it near the top
of the window, and then, pausing for a
minute, he extended his arm SO as to
shove the light to one side and out of
sight of any one on the outside. It was
kept thus for a brief space, when it was
elevated once more over his head.
This maneuver was repeated three
times, when he lowered the curtain, dis
appeared. and evidently withdrawing to
his former seat left the same dull illu-
mination in tho apartment.
"Ha stgna1ed to somebody" was the
thought of the watcher below, land

Had the sun been shining person

But, turning his gaze thither, Manson
discovered nothing in the nature of an
answer. Here and there twinkled the
lights in the houses of the town, but
none went through the peculiar gyra-
tions he had just witnessed.
"It may have been done without my
seeing it, or, what is as likely, no reply
was expected by the doctor"
No glimmer of light as yet concerning
the missing friend, and just now he was
of more concern to Max Manson than q
thousand raiah's rubies.
Standing thus in the drizzle and
gloom, depressed, perp1exed and at his
wits end, Max Manson gradually be-
came aware of some faint but increasing
odor that was in the air and making
itself manifest to his sensitive ncstrils.
Memory is impressed the most vividly
through the sense of smell, and that

would have sworn that that was caused
by one of Fol's delicious Perfectos."
Peering about in the darkness, he saw
tiny point of fire on his right. Mani
festly it was the glowing tip of cigar.
Somebody was near him and smoking.
The aroma became more distinct, for
some air current persisted in bringing it
straight to Manson.
"It must be he, for few smoke such
fine cigars"
While he hesitated to speak and was
puzzled beyond expression a suppressed
voice called to him through the gloom:
sHello, Max, is that you"
The red point dropped downward, as
though the smoker had removed it from
his lips, and Folsom Simpson advanced,
the darkness being too intense for him to
be seen, but the soft rustic of his feet on
the wet grass was heard.

WHAT MORE REMAINS TO BE DONE2
The companion of DR.. Maidhoff was q
young man of prepossessing appearance,
whom, as we have stated, Detective Man
son had never before seen. The two
were seated at small round table to
the rear of the room and conversing in
low tones, while they passed the marvel
GUS rajah's ruby back and forth between
them,
The officer listened closely, but was
unable to catch q syllable Of what was
said. The utmost he could do was to
detect the murmur Of the younger per-
sons voice when he spoke, for it pos
sessed deep, sonorous quality that was
more musical than that of the other.
Had the listener been able to overhear
the conversation doubtless the whole ex-
asperating mystery would have been
cleared up; but, as has been shown, that
was an impossibility.
Was not the work of Max Manson,
however, SO fer as the rajah's ruby was
concerned, finished? He had been sent
to Ellenville at the request of DR.. Maid
hoff to discover what had become of the
wonderful gem that had been stolen
from the late Mrs. Livermore. Here it
was, within n few feet of him, in the
hands Of the very man that had made
the application. What more remained
to be done?
Nothing he muttered, answering
his own question-"thati is, as affects this
jewel. have discovered that the thief
is the trusted family physician. That's
enough. The next thing is to learn what
they have done with Folsom Simpson"
As noiselessly as he had climbed the
tree he descended to the wet ground and
stood for some minutes debating what
should be his next step.
Before he could form any conclusion
an increased flood of light caused him to
look uD again at the window,
