He Doesn't Mean II.

When yon hear young man say,
II don't believe in woman having
anything to do but sit and read or
manicure her finger nails all day, l
don't want my wife to be busy about
anything" why. of course, you know
that the young man is simply talking
against time. He doesn't mean word
he says. and it is safe to warrant that
he is the first man who would be bored
to death by such a girl. This young
man may like to fancy that he is be-
lever in such false sentiments. and
perhaps he does believe in them for
the moment of saying. But this may
more than likely be only his way Of
protesting against the wave of energy
which the girlhood Of today is respond
ing to. out of which perhaps may
come salvation even to man. Or else.
possibly. there is nothing more than sly
method in his old school assertion

The Great Seal Of England.

The seal consists OF large mass Of
sterling silver. measuring about 611
inches in diameter by Ia inches in
depth or thickness. 1t is in two parts
both smooth on the outer side, but elab-
orately engraved within. These two
surfaces are impressed upon lump of
wax attached in an ingenious way to
any document to which her majesty as
sovereign gives her royal assent. The
weight of the seal is 1S5 ounces Each
seal is engraved during the reign of
the sovereign whose name it bears,
and the collection presents curious
and accurate epitome of English his
tory.
All lord chancellors have taken the
greatest care of the seals in their
charge and have contrived recesses
and elaborate devices for their safe
custody. One of them in the reign of
Charles II actually slept with the seal
under his pillow and by this loving pre-
caution saved it from thieves who one
night broke into his house and carried
off the mace belonging to the house of
lords and other valuable property

The claoueur..

The work of the "claqueurs" Is not,
as will be readily seen, intellectually
Of q very high order. The chief is sup
posed to have taken voluminous notes
at the rehearsals of the play they are
seeing performed, to have consulted
with the manager, to have chatted
with the author-in short, to have
made close study of the entire work
on which his brigade" is to be en-
gagged. he is the spring of the claque.
The men under his orders. scattered
here and there under the chandelier,
are merely parts of the machinery. and
they would no more think Of applaud
ing on their own account than they
would think of flying
Once upon time there was daring
claqueur who did not wait for the sig
nal, but his short connection with the
profession-he was Immediately reliev
ed of his fauteuil for breach of disci-
pline-hardly entities him to the honor
of mention In the same company with
eminentA claqueurs. The part he ap-
plauded happened to be the only good
scene in the whole play. His sense of
art, unfortunately, was stronger than
his idea Of duty. Seized with uncon-
trollable enthusiasm, he, the only man
of taste among the claque, made the
house ring with applause. He is now

les in Paris.-Wide Wide World.

CHAPTER TX.

KIRK PREVENTS A LYNCHING.
AS Malcolm Kirk and Carver ran ON
directly in the face of that wild line Of
fire and smoke there was only one SUI
preine thought in the mind of Malcolm.
He saw the boys mother, and while he
ran he heard her voice as she had ap-
pealed to him in his study.
lnstinctively the two men bore off
from the road over which the horses
had entered the town toward swale
where the grass and rosin weeds grew
deep, and it was but few feet from
the beaten track of the prairie road
that they saw the body of Philip Bar
ton, lying face downward. the hands
clinched and holding tightly broken
piece of the lines of the harness.
No time then to stop and ask wheth-
err he were living, but up with him be-
tween them and back to the town with
all the power of their pulsing man
hood.
Carver was entirely sober now. He
was naturally man of great muscular
endurance. Malcolm had kept up his
physical training in his work with the
young men in the church.
Not word was said. They realized
that the time was short, and they ran
with their unconscious, heavy burden
between them
Meanwhile men, women and children
had organized in desperate effort to
save the town. There was one fact in
their favor. 1t had been the custom
for those living on the edge of the town
to picket their animals out on the prai-
rie near by The grass was cropped
short on this account. Under any or
binary circumstances this fact would
have insured safety from any usual
fire. But the whole prairie was atiame,
everything was as dry as two months
Of drought and hot winds could make
1t, and water for a long time had been
very scarce in wells and cisterns Back
of all that advancing line of fire was a
prairie gale that shot the flames
straight forward, and old settlers, some
of whom had seen the great fires in Da-
kota in the early sixties, looked at the
sight now before them with grave
faces.
Dorothy came to the door of the par
sonage, stood there moment and then
ran. with other women, her neighbors,
down to the main street.
Bucket lines were being formed from
all the wells and cisterns that were
available. She instantly Joined with
the others in handing the water A
large company of men armed with wet
cloths to whip out the fire began to
form as far from the houses as they
dared. 1t was too late now to pillow
fire breaks and too windy to make a
back fire The only hope that any one
had was that the shortness of the grass
near the town would check the fury Of
the advancing whirlwind of flame
Have you seen Mr.. Kirk" Dorothy
asked as she first Joined the others
And they told her. Her face blanched
and her lips breathed prayer as she
worked on silently. She knew that he
whom she never loved as she loved

Down came the great wall OF fire and
smoke. The hot air Scorchcd the faces
of the fire fighters Dim figures out on
the advance line We're seen desperately
struggling with the element. The town
was enveloped in smoke and burned
out ashes of prairie grass that sifted
over the workers until the faces and
hands of all were black and grimy.
Scores of mon rushed upon the fire line
as 1t came on. checked some by the
short grass. and stamped out the
flame with their feet. with rags with
old brooms, with pieces of carpeting
and bedding torn from their own
houses. The outstanding line of fight
ers was forced back. burned and ex-
hausted. but the fire had been checked
and as 1t broke out in new places fresh
groups threw themselves upon it and
fought for the life of the town.

prairie instead of with the ,-.-...
