Two Irish soldiers stationed in the
West Indies were accustomed to battle
daily in little bay which was gen
orally supposed to be free from sharks.
Though on good terms with each 9th
er. they were not what might be called
fast friends.
One day as they were swimming
about 100 yards from the shore Pat
observed Mike suddenly making for
the land as hard as he could without
saying a word. Wondering what was
the matter. Pat struck out vigorously
after him and landed at his compan-

There is south side lady who owns
a Gordon setter which she believes is
endowed with almost human intelli-
gence, says the Chicago News. This is
not a hastily formed nor unfounded
opinion, but has been developed by
years of experience. Here is one of
the many incidents from which has
sprung her faith in her dog:
One Sunday, having finished her din
ner, the lady went into the drawing
room to read the paper. On a rug near
the window the setter was basking
drowsily in the sunshine. The lady's
two sons were still in the dining room
finishing the repast. and the mother
overheard something said about bones.
Now. the good lady has mortal dread
that her beautiful dog will choke to
death on bone some day. so. raising

Antiquity of Nicknames

The origin of the word as well as the
exact date of appearance of the custom
of enchanting" is unknown. Such
names are as old at least as the most
venerable chronicles, for upon diving
into ancient history we have no trouble
at all in proving that Plato was called
the Attic Bee and Socrates "Old Flat
Nose" There isn't the least doubt but
that many of our surnames come from
nicknames applied to our ancestors
such, for instance, as "Dollarhide.
"Oxenrider," Bright" "Lightfoot,' -
"Walkingshaw," "Redhead," Long
man." "Longfellow," etc.
Julius Cesar was popularity styled
"Baldhead," and even the third Ram
eses is said to have been known by
an Egyptian word which signifies
"limpy" No one has been able to es
cape the blighting or benign influence
of the nickname. Kings, queens, phi
losophers, divines, statesmen. as wei
as many other eminent persons, have
been made to prosper or suffer by hav
ing some appropriate or ridiculous so
briquet added after the lawful bestow
al of the christian" name.

The girl revealed very dainty mind
upon that little cruise. She talked de-
lightfully of simple things and led me
by many pretty paths here and there in
the fairyland of a June night, yet
could not help knowing that to her the
lake was ashes and the scented air as
bitter as tears upon her cheek. 1t is
wonder of the world how nature ech-
oes a grief and loudest for those who
love her best There is different moon
in the sky for every JOY and sorrow
and to most of us there comes a night
when we could weep because it is not
the same moon that it used to be.
We staid late upon the lake, and it
may have been half past IL when
reached my room. Trask came within
few minutes-in fact, before l was
quite ready for him. The subject that
we must speak of was delicate in the
extreme, and I knew the man very
slightly.

might have made you change your
plans" l ventured.
"It has," said he, smiling. Unless
we had come to a decision soon |
should have gone away"

to go. l speak plainly. 1 would wish
another man to do the like for me in
case of need"
He asked me, with every evidence of
surprise, what l might mean, and
told him straight out. He sat in silence
| and heard me to the end, gnawing his
cigar meanwhile until it was a rag, so
that he had to throw it away. When !
had finished, he rose to his feet and
took a turn or two in the room.
This is a remarkable situation" he
said. II scarcely know what to do. l
