In the early days of Union Pacific

limo, the three chiefs of the Arizona
Apaches, with 100 of their best bucks,
came through to Green River, wy.
They had heard of the cheap wagon
and no boss" and had come to stop the
train. They made lasso of rawhide,
and 80 men on each side held on to the
rope as the freight came down the
Wasatch divide. The engineer saw
when several miles away what the In.
dians were up to, so he whistled "off
brakes" and, opening his throttle, let
her loose. The cowcatcher struck the
rope and hurled the Indians In all direc-
tons, literally tearing them to pieces,
headless, armless and legless. The
three chiefs went south to their cactus
plains very crestfallen.
Before they selected these men the
old Chief Victoria had them all eat a
piece of rock salt about as big as
pecan, run swiftly about 100 yards, sit
down on log or rock and cross their
legs. Then he watched the vibration
of the feet, which were crossed. The
feet which vibrated the longest or had
the longest strokes he declined to &C.

slight excuse for conflicting opinion
respecting the wisdom of action in

state cannot reasonably refuse the

CHAPTER XVIII.
I'VE Are All Happy"

Six years after the events told in our
last chapter there was an unusual stir
of festivity at Glynn Castle.
It was the middle of June, and such
June people declared had not for
many years showered golden smiles on
old England.
On the lawn under the shade OF the
stately cedar, whose branches trail in
the long grass, sits an old man, whose
peaceful countenance wears a happy
smile. Time has not changed the
squire; the sorrow that once bowed his
strong frame and brought such deep
lines to his face, is past and gone. He
was watching group that would have
charmed an artist.
Near him sits a lady, no longer
young, but in the pride OF magnificent
womanhood One cannot mistake the
ripping, golden hair, the sweet, spirit
ual face, and clear violet eyes Of the
squire's darling, Lady Dacre of The
Hide
She with the squire is watching Sir
Rupert teaching her lovely little boy to
walk. The handsome, stately father,
and the smiling, fair-haired child,
make a beautiful picture. AS she
watches them, tears of happiness rise
to her eyes.
She turned to Irene, who was near
them.
What time do you expect Violet?''
she asked.
About noon" replied Miss Joce1yn.
Il know of nothing lately that has
pleased me so much as Violet's mar
riage."
"A good MATCH said the squire.
Lord Shelton is a good man and she
will be happy"
1--WE are all happy" said Sybil, Lady
Dacre; and then she gazes on the
elder sister, whose life had been sacri-
feed to her
Come here, Irene cries Sir Ru-
pert. This boy requires two to play
with him always"
Miss Jocelyn fastened across the
grass to the laughing child and his
happy father She in common with
everyone else, helped to spoil the little
! heir of The Hide.
At that moment a footman crossed
the lawn carrying a silver salver, on
! which lay a white card.
Sybil looked over her fathers Shout
Vilas County news. [volume] (Eagle River, Vilas County, Wis.) 1896-1927, 1901-01-21

der. as he read the name; and both
gazed almost helplessly at each other
as they said: ALAN Ryder"
sPapa!" exclaimed the excited Sybil
1T is Irene's lover! Now, thank
Heaven, she will be happy, tool"
Where is the gentleman asked
the squire.
HE is in the drawing room,'' re
piled the footman, waiting there, sir
for you
Come with me, Sybil,' said the OLD
man. Say nothing to Irene until We
know"
They knew soon. Alan Ryder had
returned, older in years, a rich man
but unchanged in heart-returned tc
find the noble girl he loved SO well had
been true to him through all time and
all changes.
There never was happier party
than that assembled now in Glynn Cas-
tie. Lord and Lady Shelton came al
noon, and Violet's surprise at hearing
of Alan's return can be better i'm
agined than described.
Irene seemed to grow young again
Three weeks after Alan's return they
were married, and live now with the
squire at Glynn.
The sun shines upon them; upon the
squire's white hair; his darling's gold
en- head, never so bright as now; upon
the fair little child, ana upon the noble
gentleman, Sir Rupert The LONG
night of sorrow had passed-pure and
perfect day had dawned at last.
Years afterward when blooming
daughters grew around Sybil-g girls
with spirits high and willful as he1
own had been-with the memory OF
Lyster Ayrton's grave upon her, she
taught them that the grandest lesson
in life is, ITO do ones duty
The End.

BY BERTHA III. CLAY.

cross him, for he shuddered at her
words. He looked curiously into her
face, and at the doctor.
81 am not very ILL., he said | feel
no pain. Wy do you look at me so,
Sybil? I am not going to die!"
He uttered the last words with a
shrek that rang through the ward.
81 have a charmed life, you know,
he gasped "They left me once before
for dead, but I did not die
She whispered soothing words to
him-words that came from divine
lips-of mercy and pardon, even at the
eleventh hour; and he answered with
cries of despair.
Draw a curtain over that deathbed.
AS he had sown he reaped. The life
spent in breaking the laws OF God
ended in despair. It was death so
terrible that strong men turned away
in dismay; only she, whose tender
heart ne had well-nigh broken, re-
NAMED with him until his soul went
to meet his judge.
He never saw another sun rise. The
awful struggls, the frenzied fear, the
unutterable agony were all ended.
When the first golden rays of the
morning crept into the room, all that
remained of Lyster Ayrton-the
manned and distorted body-was COW
cred with white sheet
Yet he had had good prospects when
he started in life a moderate fortune,
a fair face, the fatal gift of winning
hearts, the chances of promotion; and
this was the end-a fearful death in
a hospital ward Are those grand old
words false which say, "The wages OF
sin is death?"
They had carried poor Sybil from
his bedside; horror overpoWered her.
In that last dread moment when, with
a wild, blasphemous cry, his soul went
forth to meet his God she fell sense
less by his side.
The same doctor who had met her
attended her; he learned her name
and history; he wrote to the squire
and prayed him to come instantly.
When he reached the hospital, it was
to find his daughter near dying and
her husband dead.
They buried him with all honor.
The white monument in Kensal Green
tells his name and age. The flowers
had begun to grow near his grave be-
fore Sybil knew those around her.
They feared for her life, then for her
reason.
The horrors of that terrible death
bed never left her. She would cry out
in her sleep, and cry when awake,
praying God in His mercy to let her
die, if she could not forget.
They did not take her back to Glynn
Castle when she recovered. They
went to a quiet little village in north
Wales, and there they tended her I'M
til health was once more restored.

English as She Is Smoke.

They are still telling in a certain
circle here in town of the sayings and
doings of a gentleman from Vienna,
who spent part of January here. His
English was quantity correct, and ne
prided himself particularly on being
able to use slang. The expression
"out of sight, pleased him immensely
and after learning it he took the first
opportunity possible of using it. The
opportunity came one day when he
was invited out to dinner. AS he en-.
tered the drawing-room the hostess
greeted him and asked him how he
was feeling. The gentleman from vi
emma looked about to see that every
body was listening, and then he said
proudly:

A PET ALLIGATOR.
>AMMMM m so az a.

William Simpson, who lives at Pine
astle, Fla, near Lake Marie, has a
small boy named Rob, who tanned an
alligator and loved him as dearly as if
he had been a goat. The gator was
called Pete, and proudly sported a
copper ring in his head as a civilized
gator who knows tricks should. One
day Pete disappeared, and he stayed
for three years. In the meantime Rob-
ert received many spankings because
he was continually playing with alliga-
tors and getting all sorts of scratches
and bites in consequence. Now
comes the queer part of the story, that
recalls the interposition of fairy god
mothers. Bob was making overtures

to big alligator one day, and the
big saurian came at him with his
large, open countenance, and the little
boy began to say his prayers. Just in
the nick of time another gator ap-
peared, and the first gator had fight
on his hands. When the fight was
over Rob discovered that his alligator
ally was the long-lost Pete, grown in
deed, but still wearing his stamped
copper ring. This time Pete stayed,
and people go for miles to see the
youngster ride about on his back At
least this is the story A. L. Averill of
Madison, who has winter home in
Florida, tells with perfectly sober
cOuntenance.

Old-Time Courtesy.

A quaint folio is Eye Boke of Cur
tasye," lately unearthed by Mr.
Furnivale in England It consists Of
two companion tracts, apparently
written early in the fifteenth century,
entitled How Ye Goode Wife Shall
Teache Her Daughter and How Ye
Wise Man Learneth His Sonnen"
The. daughter, addressed by the en-
dearing term of lief child" is advised
that if she would be a wife she must
wisely work" and "look lovely"
and not suffer the rain to hinder her
from hearing mass daily. At church
she is to Ibid her bedes,' j. e. (say her
prayers), and to make no jangling to
friend nor to sib. If a sutton present
himself she is not to ''scorn" him, nor
again to keep the matter secret.
Sit not by him, nor stand, where sin
might be wrought
For a SANDER raised ill
Is evil for to still,
My lief child.
When she has secured a good hus-
band she must Sslove him and honor
him most of earthly things" and
answer him meekly, not as an 'at-
terling" ii. e., shrew);
So mayest thou Stake his mood and be
his dear darling.
A fair word and meek
Doth wrathe Stake,
My lief child.
She is to keep her "countenance,"
whatever (of news or of gossip she
may hear. and on no account to fare
as a gigge" ii. e., to behave as a
giggling GRID, but when she laughs
ito laugh soft and mild" When she
walks she is not to "brandish" her
head nor to be too laxative, and by no
means to swear, for all such manners
come to an evil proof" But if she
chance to be where good ale is no
loft" she is to drink 'measurably,'
for it is a shame to be loft drunk"
She is to avoid common shows-as,
for instance. wrestling matches and
shooting at the roosters"-and not
to pick up acquaintance in the street;
but if any man should speak to her
she is to greet him swiftly" and let
him go his way. And Sfor no cove
tise" must she accept a present from
any man.-Collier's Weekly.
