far beyond the rim of Lookout. The

But he did not go away. For Joe.

his gun beside him and whether he
had shot himself accidentally, or
whether some one else had done the
shooting, no one knew. But, at any

son. Rose Lea looked for the max.

the hauling of the crossties and staye
bolts which bought the family's coffee
and brOgans in winter.
AT the end of the third summer he
began to walk home from meeting
with girl who had fresh face, with
wind-blown hair around it, and a slim
waist. He was only twenty then, and
he had never thought of girls until
he saw this one; and suddenly, as he
looked at her. something of the same
feeling came upon him which he had
had when he saw the sea of mist
stretching between the mountains.
And, as Annie was more obtainable
than the sea, his desire for her be-
came reality, and so, for many years,

There are stretches along what is
known on the map as Raccoon, or
Sand mountain, where the blum OF
solid rock extends down, straight and
sheer, to the level of the valley. From
the edge of these bluffs one looks
across space of some ten or twenty
miles to the side of Lookout, paral-
lei plateau which extends southwark
for many miles from Point Lookout,
the site of the famous battle above
the Clouds" There is that in this
view which, at certain seasons OF the
year. and under certain atmospheric
conditions, approaches the grandeur OF
more pretentious scenery.
do not know that Rose Lea White,
who came to one of these bluffs the
bride of slouching-gaited young
mountaineer, ever looked upon it as
being especially scenic, but she spent
good deal of time, when her husband
was in the field, the first spring and
summer of her marriage, sitting un-
der the projecting limb of big flow-
ering ash, which grew in assure Of
the rock, and looking with unchanging
face across the valley. One may
never know what she thought.
At any rate, when a while after
ward her baby, little Joe, began to
look about upon the world he had
come to, his eyes had a wondering,
yearning look in them, and his first
voyage Of discovery, when he could
creep. was to the edge of the bluff,
which was only few yards from the
east door where Rose Lea always
looked for the sunrise And to that
spot he persisted in creeping, until
Joe, the father, one day fenced in the
dooryard with pickets, which was
wise precaution. and added much to
the safety of the other children who
followed little Joe in rapid succession,
as children are accustomed to do up.
on the top of Raccoon or Sand noun
tain. And so for Rose Lea was an
end of sitting under the Towering ash
and looking across the valley.
But not for Joe. who grew big
enough to let himself out of the gate
after while He was quiet boy,
not given greatly to enjoying the
sports of his brothers and sisters, and
working at his little daily tasks in an
absent, dreamy way, which tried the
patience Of Rose Lea, though, like
most mothers, her heart held it's own
special tenderness for her first-born.
When he was old enough to "tote
hoe" his father found that frequent

It 70 the Outcome OF Degenerate Art
Craze Soon Died Out.
A few years ago, when summer fur
nishing or simple furnishing at any
season was to be accomplished, the
first idea was to seek Japanese shop.
The current idea was that the Japan
csc could hardly make any ugly thing.
We have had to relinquish that bliss
full theory, the fact at the present
time being that the Japanese make
more cheap, tawdry, ignoble stuff than
almost any other nation. Even the
best OF their art is degenerate in these
days, and the worst is. simply afro
cious.. Instead of cheap Japanese
china-the worst expression of their
ndustry-arti.ticS souls now buy the
so-called peasant china of Germany
and France. Some of it is extremely
attractive, the clear color of the
china and the ingenious nature of the
decorations making them delightful.
there are any number of small shops
that carry these potteries. They are
not to be had in sets. as rule, al

Like a cross where One hath bled!

But as he grew still older, and still

tlng up one night by an old mans
whim to sit on the porch instead of
sleeping, he saw again his boyhood's
vision OF the sea! He was an old
man, old, old; but he would yet do
what his youth had but dreamed of;
he would ride on the tossing deep,
that wide. wonderful sea, which had
called to him when boy!
But there was no time to lose.
When it came again he must be
ready. And he must be secret and
silent.
In an old. unused wagon shop he
found all that was necessary for the
carrying out of his great. plan. A few
boards, some nails and couple OF
cross-pieces to hold all together; that
would answer surely for him, light
old man. All, yes, and an oar to
steer. He must have the oar. And
when all was ready, every night he
kept watch for "it" to come again.
He had not long to wait, else he
might at last have missed his oppor-
tnnity. for he was growing very
feeble, and his daughter, herself an
old woman, had laid a new black sun.

It had been q wet August, and the
face of Lookout had been for two
weeks yelled with a curtain of rain,
but at dark one night the sky sudden
ly cleared, the heavy mist which had
covered the mountain dropped Town
into the valley, and the moon rose full
and beautiful upon old Joes sea!
And Joe, who had been watching,
saw it, and light leaped into his
eyes.
1t was not heavy, the boat which he
had made, yet to launch it was no
easy task for the feeble old man, drag
ging and carrying it from it's hiding
place, tugging with all his little
strength to lift it that it might make
no sound, lest some one should wake
and hear. Hurrying, too, lest ut"
should be gone! And the oar-he
must not forget the oar.
The mist had risen to the very edge
of the bluff when the old man stood
at last beside his boat, thinking how
best to put it forth upon that wonder.

rising about him, and for which he
had for so many years longed. So

and her checks would be red and
the wind blowing her hair!
A stunted pine grew at the BLUFFS
edge. Close to this he placed his boat,
and, standing upon it, he took his oar,
braced it firmly against the foot of
the tree, and pushed off.
There was a startled cry, and the
soul of old Joe went drifting out up.

all day over the mountain dropped
down into the valley And as Joe
went to the edge of the bluff, he saw

and deeply moving, like a great body
OF water. To his startled gaze it
seemed to rise and billow up to his
