no anxiety about his own danger.
Vow thePwind blew! And how madly
the boat tore with screaming runners
across the ice Harry had had many
fast ride but never one like this.
''She must have had mile and a
half the best of 1T when we started,
but it's twelve miles to Colbyville,
and straight down the river. Hold
hard, old Icicle, and do your prettiest. T"
The black ice, here aud there
where the wild wind had blown the
surface clean, was spotted with bub-
bles of water underneath. 1t became
a cleaning mass, silvered with sprays
of flying white. Now the boat struck
a winrow and the scales of snowy ice
went flying in every direction. Sud-
denly the sky began to darken and
clouds began to sweep across the sky.
The wind came tearing down from
the mountain side, bearing in its
bosom the mad, whirling, binding
white of a snow squall. The sharp
blast struck Harry full in the face
and stung, the pitiless snow beat into
his eyes and mouth and nose, chok-
ing back the breath that came in
quick, hot pants. The ice boat groan-
ing in every timber, and bounding
insanely over the rough surface, shot
forward into the midst of all the
strife and writhing of snow and wind,
and the shores faded from Harry's
sight as they were swallowed
up in the fathomless gloom of the
squall. At that instant he heard a
rumble down in the glare ahead OF
him and knew that he was overtaking
the train. Nearer and nearer the
rumble came, until it grew into a
roar abreast of him.
"Blow on, good squall, and send
me ahead of the trainp' he muttered.
And now the roar began to diminish
little by little, and the boy knew that
he was gaining. Still he must get a
good mile of advantage before he
would dare to run ashore and attempt
to stop the train. At last the roar
became rumble and the rumble died
out astern of him. Just as he was
turning the boats head toward the
shore, determined to risk going at full
speed into the hidden bank, the snow
ceased and he saw that he was about
three miles above Colbyville. He had
! made the nine miles in seven min

A Rural Scene in Georgia.

Here is true picture of life in the
rural districts. An old lady from
Rockdale, with her children, went to
Sunday school in Covington. After
school Brother Rosser assisted in
hitching her steer, ''Buck," to the
wagon, and, getting on the "wrong
side" of the beast, he fred away and
kicked the breath out of the superin-
tendent, who groaned aloud. The
old lady rushed to his assistance, and
exclaimed: "You ding fool, what in
the devil did you git on that side of
Buck fer? You mought FER knowed
he'd 'er kicked the stuffin' out of you.
Don't you know that Buck amt err
quainte6 with town folks with store
clothes on?" After that she hitched
Buck to the wagon without any help
from Brother Rosser.

minutes more. That's bad"
"Why?"
because it makes things uncertain
about her passing the up accommo-
dation which she meets at Colbyville.
But I suppose they'll order her to
stop here and wait"
"How long does it take her to come
own here from Helmsburg?"
"Fifteen minutes, and she'll not
make up any of it in this weather,
either"
"Then she ought to pass here at
4:10 to-day, oughn't she?"
"That's right"
81 guess I'll wait" said Harry.
1t was just 4:07 when they heard
the rumble of the train, and at Los
she Numbered past at fully fifty
miles an hour. The engineer had
made up two minutes of his loss and
was dashing on to Colbyville. Tho
train was not 200 yards away when
the agent was startled by the click of
his s:sounder." He listened moment
and turned pale.
"Helmsburg is ordering me to stop
the express here!" he cried. what

river. There will be collision at

mot if this wind holds" cried Har-
ry. dashing out of the station and
leaving the agent breathless with ex-
element
The boy ran at the top of his speed
to the place where he kept his ice
boat The halyards were hard and
stiff with ice and snow, but the boy
got up his mainsail and jib. At that
moment his mother called to him.
Harry! what are you about? Didn't
you tell me- the ice was too rough?"
Don't stop me, mother" he called
back; ''it's case of life or DEATH"
The next instant he was under way
down the river. AS he flew past the
railway station he waved his hat to
the agent, who, understanding his
purpose, cheered and waved both
hands.
"Will she hold together" thought
Harry as his boat struck the first
rough spots in the ice.
That was his one thought He had
