her tendezly. For he had cast all
doubt to the winds. No matter what
the future had In store she was his, his
part them. A glorious effulgence daz-
zted his brain. Her love had given
him the strength Of Goliath, the con-
hdence of David. He would pluck
her from the perils that earvironed her.
The Dyak was not yet born who
should rend her from him.
He fondled her hair and gently rub

The sudden sense Of ownership OF this
fair woman was enhancing. It al
most bewildered him to find Iris nestl-

What gr1ish romance was this? He
held her away gingerly, just so far
that he could look into her eyes.

SO much as scratched your finger

She paled and drew back in sudden
horror. This tiny thing had taken
the semblance Of a snake. A vicious
cobra cast at her feet would be less
alarming, for the reptile could be
killed, whilst his venomous fangs
would only be used in self-defense.
Another tap sounded on their thrice

jerks debated silently whether it
would be better to create connection
thus inducing the savages to believe
they had succeeded in inf1icting a. NOR
tai wound, or to wait until the next ar
row fell, rush out, and try conclusions
with Dum-dum bullets against the
sumpitan blowers.
He decided In favor Of the latter
course. He wished to dishearten his
assailants, to cram down their threats
the belief that he was invulnerable,
and could visit their every effort with
a deadly reprisal
Iris, of course, protested when he
explained his project. But the fighting
spirit prevailed. Their love idyll must
yield to the needs Of the hour.

arrow fell and he sprang to the ex-
IRENE right Of the ledge. First he
looked through that invaluable screen
Of grass. Three Dyaks were on the
ground, and a fourth in the fork Of a
tree. They were each armed with a
blow pipe. He in the tree was just fit
ting an arrow into the bamboo tube.
The others were watching him.
jerks raised his rifle, fired, and the
warrior in the tree pitched headlong
to the ground. A second shot stretched
a companion on top Of him. One man
jumped into the bushes and got away,
but the fourth tripped over his un-
weildy sumpitan and bullet tore a
large section from his skull The
sailor then amused himself with
breaking the bamboos by firing at
them. He came back to the white
faced girl.
IT fancy that further practice with
blowpipes will be at a discount on
Rainbow Island" he cried cheerfully.
But Iris was anxious and distract.

are obliged to secure our own safety

he said. ''They don't look very terri

He did not tell Iris all the Mahona-

alarm her causelessly. Even whilst
they examined the curious little mis-

jerks could not understand the ap-

would not keep on pertinaciously
dropping an arrow on the ledge.

almost dropped on the girls out

fsh-bone point had snapped by con-
tact with the floor Of the ledge.
She sought for and found the small
tip.
"see," she said. "It seems to have
been dipped in something. It is quite
disco1ored''
jerks frowned peculiarly. A startl-
ing explanation had suggested itself
to him. Fragments Of forgotten lore
were taking cohesion in his mind.
Put it down. Quick" he cried.
Iris obeyed him, with wonder in
her eyes. He spilled teaspoonful of
champagne into a small hollow of the
rock and STEPPED one Of the fsh-bones
in the liquid. Within a few seconds
the champagne assumed greenish
tinge and the bone became white.
Then he knew.

In noting carefully the various ex-
hibitions Of home discipline to be
found by the observant everywhere,
what seems to be the object served by
it, Unless discipline has purpose
1t Is as worthless as all purposeless
things, and as great a failure. ~
for upon it depends the self-control OF
the individual May it not be claimed
that in 50 far as home discipline tends
to this It Is good. in SO far az It Tails
below this it Is bad? Taking this,
then, as the starting point, nov many as ;,
You number? The discipline that is
punitive or coercive IS not rare, but is
worthless in the higher sense. Unless
one does right without being forced
hlto 1t he is gaining nothing IN HIM
self, tho, perhaps, for the family, as
all. Yet in considering the Individual
himself that need not be counted. IN
many families one finds only this kind
OF training. It shares puntshments
and rewards with equal favishness and
folly. It takes no account OF the
Il It not the spirit Of the doer which
is OF greatest Importance?
Many a mother shows by her course
that she considers It worse to break
a bit of bric-a-brac than to be mali
cfous or untruthfu1, for she Furnishes
a dish, passes with small attention the
lie or unkindness. That IS, she places
things above principles, the material
above the spiritual. the temporal
above the eternal. Does this not seem
to be a mistake? Are not the things
which count for character greater
than those which are superficial? Are
~ whit a Nh
to see right for himself rather to be
chosen than those which punish him
for what he did not know?
The occuHists define sin as tgnor-
ance, therefore It should be the atm Of
those who govern children to help
them to see wisely and thus to avoid
usual course Of discipline you may
learn in an hours observation Of par
ents and children.
Following natural and proper de-
sire to increase his knowledge, a boy
investigates the working of a clock, to
the subsequent detriment Of the article
concerned. His motive was as correct
as when he made the water MIL for
which he was praised, but does he get
praise for tinkering with the clock i?
Probably not. More likely he Is
greeted with "You bad, wicked boy,
tearing my clock to pieces. You are
the most destructive child ever saw,
and I shall let your father settle with
you when he gets home"
That reproof is a. model Of an good
dtsctp1inarian would avoid, because It
treats what really was a commendable
motive as a wickedness. The only
evil was the disregard Of the rights
and the property Of another, and that
was thru ignorance which could be en-
lightened by few just remarks.
Then to "let your father settle with
YOU" is a confession Of weakness on
the mothers part. She should settle
her own accounts, for her own sake
and for the child's. He should not
feel that his mother is a moral weak
ling. g.:
Had she talked with the boy, show
ing him that she appreciated the spirit
that had animated him and pointing
out to him why he should not have
taken another's property even for the
sake, of gaining knowledge, she would
have brought him to condition of
mind much more for his welfare.

It is a curious habit Of, the rats in
New Orleans to embark upon the
many fruit steamers plying between
there and South, America, stay with
the steamer until It reaches a South

leave. The captains Of these boats
say. that they often provide free trans
portation to asy,manys as 200 and 800
going down. and coming back, when
loaded with fruit, they never see one.
The rat population of New Orleans
seems not to have suffered, however.
