The squatter was ahead Of him. He
trod water for a second and flung of
the jacket that bound his arms.
He gained on the squatter. He re-
eeiyed the splash from bis circling boots
full IN the face, and the temptation for
water leap-frog was too strong to bere-
sisted.
He trod water again, came up behind
his enemy, planted his feet on his shoul-
ders and sent him downward with the
greatest good viii and energy. Half q
dozen more strokes and he was along
side Esther.
"Jack-oh, dear Jack-oh, Jack, she
said, Historically, as his wet, beaming
face bodied up beside her head, that she
was trying to keep fat on the water in
floating position.
'Tt's all right, little CIR" he said, re-
assuringly ''Everything's all right
now. You're as safe as a church"
There was a general roar Of laughter
as Jack climbed out and lifted Esther
from the water. little the worse for her
adventure. He had left his bonnet and
his wig and his jacket in the water,
and appeared in a white flannel shirt
and long, dripping skirts.
Joan unfastened the hooks and he
kicked them off and stood before them
Rttired in his boating fannels.
Thank heaven" he said. with pious
fervor, Then an adjournment was made
for drying purposes to a cottage close
by, and Esther submitted without pro-
test to the supporting arm of her res

and merriment, but there were five
white minutes at the end that spread
out afterward over the whole lives of
two people.
"How can ever thank you?" Esther
said. and blushed beautifully. for she
knew quite well the way she could.
"In a book" Jack whispered, "the
hero and heroine would be sure to mar

SUMMARIES of the results of establish
ing postal savings bank systems in a
few important countries have been
printed, Among those countries are
England, France, Russia and Austria
Hungary. The main feature of the
systems is that the government,
through its post-ofiices, is the cnstodi-
an Of small amounts, especial attention
being paid to encouraging the young
to acquire the habit Of saving. In
England one person in every seven is "a
deposition in postal bank, and the
total amount of the deposits in the
keeying Of the government is more
than four hundred million dollars. All
rbOngh the system has never been test
ed in the United States, its adoption
has been urged by various pubhc Off
ciaIs of high rank; aud it is probable
that the more than satisfactory results
in foreign countries will lead to its
establishment here.

The selection of john Sherman for
Secretary of State means that a halt is
to be called in diplomatic aggressive
ness. Sherman is VIGOROUSLY eonserv-
ative in matters effecting our relations
with other countries. He may be a
patriot in a way, but the acute sense of
national honor and the sentiment Of
national pride is lacking in him. He is
eold-blooded to ealmness, and there is
no reason TO believe that he would show
either an aggressive OF an unyielding
spirit inhis dealings with other powers.
The dispatch have called attention to
his physical c6ucition, a good reason
why he should not be called to so i'm
portMt a trust Today he lacks the
mental essentials, and he will prove a
failure. In his life he is, or has been
a great statesman, though one With an
eye single to his own interest, but he
has not been trained to diplomacy.
His bent is in another direction alto
gether.
