FATHER O'FLAHERTY'S
 TACTICS.
BY ETHEL M. COLSAN.

It was a neat little house in a neat little
 street. Dennis Mullaney's residence. but t was not alone because of its neatness | that Mrs. Mullaney was proud of it. She plan. mind you-out of her own earnings | as q seamstress, aided by the little she could save out of her husbands wages | Of two dollars a day. And she had never. l as she herself expressed 1t, had Hiss than eight children ter kape' while the house was in course of requirement.. For these beloved ''chtlder'' the social ambitions were high. It was no part of her plans. the flock. should marry a common team | ster." although young 'Jamesy' Murphy owned a fine team.
 It Is doubtful if the young people would without making run for 1t. which Molly would never have consented to debut for Father Q Fiaherty's assistance. Father O Flaherty was the boyish-faced priest at St. Michaers. a yuong man just out from Ireland. and. once more to quote Mrs. Mullaney. "wurrekin loike the very divvle ter bate ther faver of homesick- ness" which was consuming him. Father O O'Flaherty was fond of calling at the Mullaney cottage because Mrs. Mullaney reminded him of the good, hard-worxfng, her own joy in his presence for the sake of his future well-being. He was sorry, upon the occasion of the call which di- rectly followed Mrs. Mullaneys fiat dSdIflSt tO see tidt Molly looked pale and troubled and that her eyes showed traces of tears.
 It's hankerin after Jsmsey Murphy that she do be-" the indignant mother burst forth in answer to the good priest s kindly inquiry. But it's cry she'll have ter. uf,lfss Jamesy alters his ways
 "A good lad, Mrs. Mulianey," said Father O 'Fiaherty. and very steady for his years" Molly shot hin, a grateful glance, but Mrs: Mullaney grew more indignant.
 He may be steady as the church fer 1wl I care" she declared. roundly, "an as harnsome as Molly thinks him. But no young man that's willin' ter dhrive team these days is good enough fer my Molly. It's eddlcation an sthyle thot helps mon up In the wurruld these days"
 "lt's love thot makes people happy" vcntured Molly. emboldened by the priF st's evident sympathy.
 ''1 believe you're right, my girl" Father OFlaherty told her a few moments later, as she showed him out at the front door. Keep up good heart and a good cour- age. Molly. and youll be a happy woman ole of these days"

PARTRIDGE EGGS.
Said to Be the Most Nutritious 0
 All Foods

Said to Be the Most Nutritious of
 All Foods.
 But few persons are aware of the fact, but l. is true. nevertheless, that the egg of the partridge is one of the most nutri- tious things in thc world. says the Mon treal Herald. They are hot used for eat ing purposes except in very rare cases, and then 1t generally happens in remote rural districts. These eggs, of course. never find their way into the market, be- cause they are never taken from their nest except by such persons as rob the nests because their principal food supply comes from this source. Quail meat comes pretty high in the market at all times, and the average man will find 1t more profitable to spare the eggs and wait for the birds when the hunting sea- son rolls around. These men would pass a hundred rests in one day without dis turbing an egg. The sport of hunting the birds is an dditional incentive. The av- craze negro does not care so much about this aspect of the case. He figures that the white man. having the best gun and the best dog. will beat him to the hird. So he goes after the eggs. One partridge will lay anywhere from dozen to twen- ty eggs, and a nest Is good ind. Many families in rural sections feast on these eggs in the laying season. It is pecu- liarly rich. It has a good flavor. is very palatable. and, in fact, is altogether a very fine thing to eat. Many people think it has more nutrition in it than the fully develoned hird

And thinking lit tie. too. perhaps, of the bright-eyed, rosy l checked Irish girl for whose sake he had 1 been hurried off to college a little earlier than he had expected, but of whose charms man dedicated to the priesthood from his infancy had no right to think She, too. had looked a little pale and troubled when last he saw her. The thin | face of Father O'FlaEerty looked thin. l ner than ever as he faced his parishion- CTS.
 I'll leave most of the details to you gentlemen, he said. presently, but contract for the tcamlns. He's a good lad and the contract will help him. None -oi you will have any objection, am sure"
 "Jamesy isn't prepared fort" suggest cd one of the three contract teamsters iu the room.
 T understand he soon will be- was Father 0. Flaherty's quiet reply.
 That night he had an interview with the young teamster.
 I'm thinking, James," was the sub- stance of this conversation, that you could borrow money for couple of new teams from your father if you had good myself shall be glad 70 lend you the money for still another good team and wagon. With three or four teams you'd be in shape to undertake the teaming contract for the new church of St. Michael"
 ''Never mind thanks. lad he concluded the interview by saying. Go and talk to your father-and see If you can't over come Mrs. Mullaney's prejudice against having a teamster for a son-fn-laW by telling her that you've got the church contract"
 Heaven bliss ye, Father said young 'Jamesy," relapsing into the vernacular.
 And, as Father O'Flaherty had expect ed Mrs Mullaney's social ambitions for her daughter recognized a wide difference between a common" teanstcr who drove his own single team and the contract teamster" who rejoiced in four teams and the church contract.
 The neat little house was replaced by a tall flat building some time ago, and MT. and Mrs. James Murphy, blissfully happy and successful, are joint owners with Mir. and Mrs. Dennis Mullaney of this new building. Father O'Flaherty, albeit that he never finds the new building quite so snug and homelike as the old one, calls there quite often and he Is usually little happier for every visit
 The sweet little Irish girl of whom Father OFlaherty has no business to be thinking slipped out this life last winter, and 1t comforts the man who has no bus mess to think of her to kIow that Molly Murphy. nee Molly Muilaney, was made happy for her sake.

HOOD, ADMIR-, ct sl., V. HAMMOND. Bill in Equity to Enforce Vendors Lien
 on Land.-Appeal from the Chancery
 Court of Etowah.
 1. Vendors lien; when acceptance by vendor of note as collateral security not a waiver of lien.-Where a vendor takes for part of the purchase money of lands sold, the notes of the Vendee, which re- cited that they were given as a considera- tion for the sale of the land conveyed, and the vendee subsequently, sells the lands so purchased and receives the note of the sub-purchaser, which Is delivered to the original vendor as collateral se- curity to the notes formerly given by his vendee, the acceptance by the vendor of such note of the sub-purchaser as col lateral security, does not constitute a waiver on the part of the original vendor of his lien.
 2 Same; not lost though debt evidenced by note barred by statute of limitations A vendors lien for the payment of the purchase money of land is preserved and can be enforced although an action upon the note or debt is barred by the statute of limitations.
 3. Same. failure to file claim with ad- ministrator or against insolvent estate does not prevent enforcement of lien.- The failure of a vendor to present notes
  money of land, to the latter's administra- tor within the time required by the stat ute of non-claim, or to file such notes in the Probate Court within nine months after the declaration of insolvency of the vepdee's estate, does not destroy the vendors lien or cut of all remedy for its enforcement.
 4 Same: what necessary for defendant to set off damages sustained for failure to collect note given as collateral secur- ity.-Where a note given by a sub-pur- chaser is transferred by the original ven- dee to the original vendor as collateral security for the notes given by the orig inal vendee, upon bill filed by the orig inal vendor to enforce his vendors lien. the original vendee can not recoup or set off damages alleged to have been sus- tained by him on account of the com plainant's failure to collect the note given as collateral security, without showing that such damages have been sustained and the amount thereof.
