"Oh, father you promised me not to-
called the sweet young voice OF the doc
tors seyenteen-year-old daughter from
window looking out upon the broad, old
fashioned veranda THAT was slip, my
darling; come and kiss me good morning"
Then the doctor turned his back upon the
early morning sunshine, which was CHS
teninR over the frost-covered fields, and
turned his face, toward the broad double
doors, through which MS ldollzed daushteF
was coming.
Jefferson Davis Lottobog had gone on
a run on his mission, for he had learned
TO gauge the doctors temper. according
10 the three degrees OF colnparson-posl-
tive Jeff.3 comparative Jefr Davis, super
lattye Jefferson Davis Lottobog, and this
last degree meant "hurry orders"

this time father?" asked the girl. for she
suspected that her intercossons In behalf
OF old Ephraim would again be neeoed 10
keen him from jail.
1.-THE same old thing, my darling, hes
gotten the old rooster that roosts In the
cedar tree this time" answered the doc
tor.
"oh" she exclaimed In tone OF deep
tenderness, Poor Ben Butler, ! wonder
If he's killed him"
II was not long -tfore old Eph made
mis- appearance. and was quickly ushered
into the presence OF his former master
by jeff Davis.
Good mornn', mars Doctor. ] hope
yous had a good nights res" said he
as he walked 10 the corner Of the nantel
and held mis- hands near the blazing
hickory fire. The doctor hcsitated be-,
fore responding to his morning snluta-
lion. then laid aFide the book he,'lad been
reading and said: i've got yead sure
proof against you this time, you old
rascal"
Now, mars Doctor, you comes to de

piled Uncle Eph, very seriously.
