FIND MAN OF STONE AGE.
Gigantic Prehistoric Skeleton Dis
covered by Hunters Near
ShOhOlR Glen, n Y,

Hunters from Susquehanna, Pa,
while excavating for a hunt near Sho-
hola's glen, n. Y, discovered cave in
which they found the skeleton of a
man Of gigantic size. 1t was swathed
in rawhide trappings that kept it in a
sitting posture, the knees drawn up to
the hand and clasped in a bony en-
brace with fleshless arms.
Near the skeleton were several bowls
of reddish clay, but almost as hard as
flint. \ rude stone tablet was found
near the skeletons side covered with
rude pictures of birds and beasts,
among them one of a monster half
beast, half reptile.
\ number of implements were also
l.und in the cave. among them huge
ak made of stone and stone spear
heads of unusual size.

The new housekeeper showed mar
velous aptitude for her situation.
though there were some few details
which it seemed almost :.iroSsihle
for her to grasp. For instance. when
she came in from the street she in
bly, ran lightly up the broad mar
Die steps, and only recollected herself
as she reached out toward the but
ton. Then she would make wrv
grimace and slip back to the little
gate which led around to the serv-
ants entrance. Again, she found it
impossible to go past the doors of
the drawing-room and library with
| out an almost irresistible impulse to
enter.
One morning she was in the music
room arranging some folios on a
table when she heard quick approach
ing footsteps. Thinking it was Mrs,
Van Maurice, she went on quietly
with her work
Il beg your pardon. I didn't know
Aunt Liza had company" said AL
eager, almost boyish voice. A serv-
Mrs. Van Maurice just went into
the library" and Esther turned to-
ward him quietly. 1t was very
handsome, athletic young man she
saw; and as their eyes met, a puzzled
expression of dawning recognition ap-
peared on each face.
THANK you. But - excuse me
haven't I seen you somewhere?"
why, on board the Aurora, of
course!" stepping forward suddenly
| with outstretched hands. "You are
the man who sprang overheard in a
gale to rescue poor emigrant's
child, and who nearly lost his life in
the attempt. 1t was the bravest
thing L ever saw, and | have often
wished | could thank you. The wom-
an belonged to my own town."
"Oh, come, come; you make too
much of my share in the NATTER he
expostulated. But, nevertheless, he
took the outstretched hands and felt
strange thrill as he gazed into the
upturned, glowing face. Then, eager
ly: You are the young lady who
played the piano so exquisitely on the
boat, and to whom all the passen gers
wanted to be introduced. l went to
everybody l knew, but not one of
them could claim the honor of your
acquaintance"
why, that was too bad" commits
eratingly.
Indeed it was. I" But she had
suddenly recollected herself.
Il am very sorry she said, quietly,
''but l forgot myself for the moment.
l am only the housekeeper here"
No, really?' But she recognized
with a pleasure which surprised her
that there was more of incredulity
than CONSERVATION in his voice.
"1es-but here comes your aunt,
now. Goodmorning."
The next day the young man called
again, and again in the evening. And
the next day and the next, and after
that two or three times each week.
And for reward he saw Esther sew
eral times in the distance, and once
actually spoke to her as she passed
through the hall.
"Why don't you bring your friend
with you occasionally, Harold?"
