don't find it so. Presence is what plays
the very deuce with me. Now, how do
you account for 1t, Silly
The professor did not attempt to ac-
count for it, but silently attended to
the business in hand. Yates withdrew
his eyes from the sky and fixed them
on the professor, waiting for the
answer that did not come.
"Mr. Remark" he drawled at last;
II am convinced that your treatment
of the potato is q mistake. I think
potatoes should not be peeled the day
before and left to soak in cold water
until next days dinner. OF course
admire the industry that gets work
we'll over before its results are called
for. Nothing is more annoying than
work left untouched until the last
moment and then hurriedly done.
Still, virtue may be carried to excess,
and a man may be too previous
''Well, I am quite willing to re-
linquish the work into your hands.
You may perhaps remember that for
two days l have been doing your share
as we'll as my own"
''Oh, l am not complaining about
that, at ALL" said the hammock, mag
unanimously. ':You are acquiring prac-
teal knowledge, Kenny, that. will be
Of more use to you than all the learn
ing taught at the schools. My only de-
sire is that your education should be
as complete as possible; and to this
end am willing to subordinate my
own yearning desire for scullery- work.
I should suggest that instead Of going
to the trouble of entirely removing the
covering of the potato in that labor
ious way you should merely peel belt
around the greatest circumference of
the potato. Then, rather than cook
them in the slow and soggy manner
that seems to delight you, you should
boil them quickly, with some salt
placed in the water. The remaining
coat would then curl outward, and the

swinging idly in the hammock, with
his hands clasped under his head, gaz-
ing dreamily up at the patches of blue
sky seen through the green branches
of the trees overhead, while his indus

man in the hammock, refectively, "is

of interest that you haven't given the
subject much study, except perhaps in
a physiological way. At the present
moment it is to me the only theme
worthy Of a mans entire attention.
Perhaps that is the result of spring, as
the poet says; but anyhow it presents
new aspects to me each hour. Now, I
have made this important discovery,
that the girl I am with last seems to
me the most desirable. That is con-

condition Of a wet sponge"
1.-The beauty of a precept, Yates, is
the illustrating of it. If you are not
satisfied with my way of boiling pota-
toes, give me practical object-lesson."
The man in the hammock sighed re-
proachfully.
"Of course an unimaginative person
like you, Remark, cannot realize the
cruelty of suggesting that a man as
deeply in love as l am should demean
himself by attending to the prosaic de-
tails of household affairs. am doubly
in love, and much more, therefore, as
that old bore Euclid used to say, is
your suggestion unkind and uncalled
for"
Call right; then don't criticise.''
Eyes, there is a certain sweet reasona-
bleness in your curt suggestion. A man
who is unable or unwilling to work in
the vineyard should not find fault
with the pickers. And now, Kenny,
for the hundredth time of asking, add
to the many obligations already con
ferred, and tell me, like the good fell
low you are, what you would do if you
were in my place. To which Of these
two charming but totally unlike girls
would you give the preference?'
Damn" said the professor, quietly.
Hello, Renny!" cried Yates, raising
his head. Have you cut your finger?
l should have warned you about using
too sharp a knife
But the professor had not cut his
finger. His use of the word given
above is not to be defended; still, as it
was spoken by him, it seemed to lose
all relationship with swearing. He said
it quietly, mildly, and, in a certain
sense, innocently. He was aston
ished at himself for using it, but
there had been moments during the
past few days when the ordinary ex-
pletives used in the learned volumes of
higher mathematics did not fit the oc-
casion.
Before anything more could be said
there was a shout from the roadway
near them.
''Is Richard Yates there?" hailed the
voice.
