1t was midnight when the boy
closed his eyes in the darkness. His
improvised couch was restful and
soothing one. In q moment he was
fast asleep.
He awoke with sudden start at
the SOUND OF voices close by. He lay
very still and listened.
This is a cinch, Bill" said one
voice, Nobody at home and all the
time we need to work the prize.
Steady with that lantern, old man."
The boy saw the flash of dark lam
tern on the wall as he slipped from
the couch and crept noiselessly to-
ward the dining-room. There were
burglars sure enough. His heart beat
little quicker, but he did not finch.
The men had the closet door open
and were lighting the interior with a
dark lantern.

OLD-TIME MONDAY MEAL.
What Was Served and How 1t Was
Prepared I'm the Days of
of Long Ago.

At least three days in the week a
"boiled dinner" greeted the men when
they came in for the MONDAY meal
Let us see exactly how it was prepared.
eff it was to be a boiled dinner grand
mother and one of the girls would set
about it as soon as breakfast was out
of the way. First they made sure that
the fire was good and steady. Then
the great dinner pot was hung on the
crane and filled half full of cold wa
ter" quotes the Springfield Mass
Republican. Unto this was pumped
big piece of corned beef and another
of fat pork. At nine o'clock grand
mother would lift the cover and if the
kettle was boiling would place the
pudding pot beside the beef and pork.
At the same time Polly would bring
the beets and go back to the work of
scraping, peeling and washing the
other vegetables. At half-past ten
the cabbage went in, at II the carrots
and turnips, at half-past II parsnips
and potatoes. Then quarters of squash
were laid on the top and the dinner
was under way. The great square ta-
BILE was next pulled out, covered with
plain homespun cloth, and the pew.
ter plates and mugs, the steel knives
and two-tined forks laid for ten peo.
pie.
"At the corners were placed huge
plates of rye and ingen' bread, pats
of butter, also picked cucumbers, cab.
bage or mangols and pitchers filed
with cider and beer" In Deerfield the
conch shell and the dinner horn were
unnecessary, for as the sun reached
high noon the old sexton rang a gen.
eral invitation to stop work and 60
home to dinner. At this signal the
general pewter platter would be placed
in the center of the table. The beef
and pork, half hidden in the substan.
tial garnish of crimson beets, white
potatoes, thick, moist slices of pink
ish turnips, golden carrots and yellow
with here and there squash
and cabbage, followed. The last thing
on the table was the huge, smoking.
Indian pudding, and when
the gathering of chairs had subsidized
it was to the pudding they were first
served, each receiving generous slice,
to be eaten with butter and West In
dia molasses. Then grandfather
carved the meat and everybody he1ped
pouring on plenty of cider
vinegar and homemade mustard to
stimulate digestion"

QUITE A POLITE DOG.
Story of One Owned by Max Muller
That Knew It's Own
Bed.

Max Mu1ler's dogs were quite as no.
torious a part of Oxford as himself.
He had two dachshunds, one black and
tan, called Maunerl, own brother to
Geist, Mathew Arnold's dog, for whom
the poet wrote splendid epitaph, says
the London Telegraph.
They were generally well behaved,
but they were not above making incur
sions into the gardens of Prof. Muller's
neighborhood, and even the aristo-
cratic Maunerl was sometimes seen
with his head in an odoriferous gar.
bage barrel.
However, their master thought he
might train Waldmann and Maunerl
so they could distinguish colors. He
had one basket for his black and tan
dachshund, Waldmann, and another
for his red dachshund, Maunerl The
black dog looked best, Prof. Muller
thought, on red pillow, and the red
dog on blue one. In these two bas-
kets they slept for years. When their
master said "blue bed" Maunerl would
go into his; when he said "red bed"
Waldmann would jump into his. They
never mistook one for the other.
One day Mrs. Muller was sitting in
the drawing-room when Waldmann
came in, evidently much disturbed.
She asked him if he wanted to go out
to have dinner, to have water. No,
it was none of these; but he kept run
ming TO the door, then waiting and
looking back. At last Mrs. Muller got
up and followed him, and he led her to
the dining-room.
There, in the red bed, lay a new
dachshund. just brought from Ger
many, and Maunerl was in his own
blue bed. "Waldy" stood between,
looking first. at one, then at the other,
evidently saying: "And where, ask,
am -"
The new dog was driven out, and
then Waldmann got in, quite content.

LATE DISCOVERIES IN EGYPT.
Beautiful Work i'm Precious Metals
Wrought Six thousand Five
Hundred Years Ago.

We are now able, writes Prof. Film
iers Petrie in the London Times, to
trace out the regular development of
the civilization during some 400 years
from the time when writing was but
rarely used, and then only in rude
and pictorial stage, down to the COM
mon use of delicately figured hero
glyphs, indistinguishable from those
used for thousands of years after.
We have now in our hands the beau
tifully wrought jewelry and gold work.
the infinitely engraved worries, the
toilet objects of Menes, the founder
of the monarchy, and his successor,
fashioned more than $500 years ago.
Of Menes and his predecessors there
are about 80 inscriptions and labels in
stone and ivory. From these we learn
certainly the names of three kings
Mariner, IA and name written with
a fish sign. Perhaps also Det and Sam
are two other names, but they are
more probably sign words.
Among these works of Menes are
parts of four ebony tablets, with fig
ures and inscriptions, one apparently
showing a human sacrifice. The stran-
gest object is massive strip of gold of
unknown use, with the name of Menes
(Aha) upon it.
Of Ter, the successor of Menes, the
astonishing find is the forearm of his
queen, still in its wrappings, with four
splendid bracelets intact. One is Sc
ries of figures of the royal hawk,
perched on the tomb, 10 figures in cast
and chased gold alternating with IA
carved in turquoise.
The second bracelet is of spiral
beads of gold and lazui in three
groups. The third bracelet is of four
groups of hour-glass beads, amethyst
between gold, with connections of gold
and turquoise. The fourth has cen
terpiece of gold copied from the ro-
settle seed of plant, with amethyst
turquoise beads and bands of braided
gold wire.
This brilliant and exquisitely fin
ished group of jewelry shows what
nigh level was already attained at the
beginning of the first dynasty. It is
1000 years older than the jewelry of
Dashur, the oldest yet known, and it
has the great advantage of being care
fully examined as found and restrung
in its exact arrangement.
The arm of the queen had been
broken off by the first plunderers and
laid in hole in the wall of the tomb.
There it had remained neglected by
the four parties in ancient and modern
times who had successfully cleared out
the tomb.

tie closer. He reached out to grasp
the door.
the strong rays on his white face.
There was an oath, a sudden rush,
and then the heavy oak-door slammed
shut with a crash and sharp click.
The boy, painting a little, stood by
the door for a moment or two and
listened as the trapped rascals vainly
threw themselves against the panels.
"Guess they'll keep for awhile" he
dryly muttered. "And now for that
telephone" He lighted gas jet in tho
library and approached the phone.
He paused as his hand touched the
receiver.
mo, dunn it all, 1 won't" he said, as
he drew back. "It would be shame
to wake up those police fellers for a
little thing like this. The burglars
will keep all right. I'll wait for day
light before I disturb the police"
He took his blankets and spread
them on the floor of the dining-room
in front of the closet door.
Before he laid himself down he
raped sharply on one of the panels.
''Good night" he said.
A confused growl came from the in
terror.
"Don't mention it," drawled tho
boy.
It was ten o'clock the next morn
ing when the merchant looked up and
discovered Joshua Griscom intently
regarding him.
"Mornin'," said the boy.
"Good morning." said the merchant.
"Came in to report" said the boy.
"Good," said the merchant.
"Everything's quiet" said the boy.
"Swept off the porch and sidewalk.
got my breakfast, and here am"
"Good again." exclaimed the mer-
chant. "Be on hand tomorrow with
your next report. Good morning."
The boy hesitated.
''Mornin'," he said. Then he slowly
added: "I've got two of 'em."
'Two what?"
1.-TWO of them burglars pried open
window an got in last night. They
amt much. One O them's little
skinny Teller, an t'other ones lame
an has gray hair"
"What are you talking about?"
cried the merchant.
"About your burglars" said the
boy. "They are yours, you know, an
when I'd called the police and they'd
come in a two-hoss wagon, made
the boss policeman give me receipt
for the fellers. Here it is"
The merchant took the paper and
read it aloud:
'.This is to certify that j. Griscom
has placed in our hands for safe
keeping two burglars in frst-class
condition. Signed, T. j. Dolan, SER
geant."
The merchant stared at the note
and then back at the boy. He put
out his hand to the lad.
