HOT AIR

Who is Il comes around next day
And knew just how the thing would go,
Which side would have IL walk away
And which side didn't have show,
Whose judgment couldn't go astray7
It is the man who told you so.
Oh, next day he Is Johnny Wise;
He knew II to the very dot.
You couldn't give him n surprise;
An open book was the whole plot,
Unless It is the fellow lies
When he gets off his tommyrot.
His modesty no prize will draw.
As prophet of returns next day,
Who knows the figures without flaw.
He should be drawing double pay.
You wish the mnions of the law
Would come and chase him far away.
He puts your patience to test.
He makes you gnash your teeth ant
fret.
Knocks your good temper galley west
When you the whole thing would forget
Although his judgment was the best,
He didn't know enough to bet.
And so he walks around and gloats
And dins in your unwilling ear
His rasping harsh. discordant notes.
Mixed slightly with the fumes of beer,
And as his afterthought he quotes
You wish that the police were near.
You almost wish that 1t were not
Against the law to use a gun;
To brighten your unhappy lot
You wouldn't ask for better fun
Than Just to smite him on the spot
And have the jury say, well done"

The Farmer ) Hope.

We have lost our boy forever, he's 10 college
now,
Don't know what he'll do exBctly--some-
thing pleasant, anyhow.
People talk about the freedom that the
farmer has they say
That he hasn't any master it's his duty to
obey.
And they think that when his plowin' an
his piantin's done In ,pring
He can spend the day a-loafln' and not
bavo TO do thing
Till the crops are ripe and ready fer the
reapin' In the fall
But II heavens much like farmin' II ain I
perfect, after all.
This here talk about the freedom that a
farmer has Is bosh--
Everybody that he deals with is the farm
er's boss, b'goshi
There's the chip that buys his apples spd
the merchant up In town,
Every one OF 'em his master, and all help
to keep him DOWN.
He must sell his pigs and cnttle not fer
what they ought to bring,
But fer what some trust is willin' he may
have; there amt thing
He can do that's independent except, let
things lay and rot,
Std OF givin' 'em fer nothing-then get
sold out, like as not.
There's feller from the city como out here
a while ago,
And he bought two farms adjoinin,-not
fer raisin' crops on, though;
He has built q sort OF castle over wonder on
the hill,
with windmill pumpin' stiddy. and the
women dressed to kill,
And he keeps dozen people, workin' fer
I'm light along,
RAISES fancy stock and such things-puts Oh
style uncommon strong;
He has these here horseless go-bangs and
all kinds OF buggies, too
hut he didn't make his money rainn'
crops, I'm tellin' you'll
No, they say his dad has millions-made It
out OF mines and mills,
And this chaps come out to farm IL while
the old man foots the bills;
HIS young wife and him don't worry as to
how the cropll be;
Dry or wet, they needn't bother like fool
farmers such as me;
And they say he's been through college, q,
his father was before.
They've got rich from eddycation and are
maxim more and more,
30 we've saved and scraped and worried for
to send our boy away,
And we're hopin' he'll be startin, Mt the
proper end some day.
Farmin' may be Independent when you do
tjust for fun,
When you needn't get your liviI' from the
plantin' that you've done,
When you've got some other bizness that's
a-bringin' money in,
SO that you can hold your hoad up when
the wheat'sa lookin' thin
Or the corn amt good fer nothin', or Ahe
crops have done so well
That the buyers look insilted when you say
you've stuff to sell;
Fnrmin's great when you can do Il Just fer
sport in summer days
And to make yonr town relations thaukful
fer the truck you raise.
30 Iwe've sent our boy to college and we
hope when he gets through
That he'll know SO much he'll mebby git TO
maxim millions, too,
An, some day, who knows he mightn't take
place to farm fer fun,
As 30 many OF the Zig bugs from the oity
lately'S doneY
He amt writin' very often since he's start
ed. though I'll say
That he thinks OF US quite rez'lar when
there's bills to pay

"WHY NOT?"

more or less her own mistress and
with the command of plenty of mon
ey.
During her husbands absence she
again met Sir Lionel Hippesley, this
time at home, and he, more than
ever fired by her excessive beauty,
persuaded her, too willing victim,
to run away with him to Paris.
From there she wrote to her hus-
band and told him she had never
really cared for him and that now
she loved only one man on earth,
and that man was Sir Lionel Hippes-
ley. 49,
The blow almost stunned Walton.
Then he was wounded and invalided
home, when he obtained his di-
vorce. Hippesley's wife had already
divorced her husband. Immediately
after the trial Walton had started
on a voyage to Japan and was now,
after year spent in the east, once
more returning to England.
With short, impatient sigh Wal
ton reused himself and turned to
go to the smoking, room. AS he did
SO the lady near him turned to go
below at the same moment, and they
came face to face. Such beauti-
full, pathetic face, out of which
shone pair of dark blush gray
eyes. Walton, as for an instant his
eyes met hers, felt a sudden thrill
of interest, and he wondered who
she was.
He very soon found out, for on
board ship one speedily becomes
aware of the identity, whether true
or false, of ones fellow passengers.
She was Mrs. Grenyille, a widow,
and had been staying at Hongkong
with friends and was now returning
to England. She was chaperoned
by an aunt, Lady Grahame.
Il wish Violet would make up her
mind to marry again." she said one
day when the Parramatta had left
Singapore far behind and they were
steaming through the heat Of the
Indian ocean, .but l fear she never
will. She had very unhappy mar
ried life, short as it was, and I am
afraid she will never care to repeat
the experiment"
Walton murmured something in
audible. The idea somehow of Mrs.
Grenville marrying any one became
very distasteful to him unles.,--
His heart suddenly beat faster and
his cheek flushed as he all at once
realized that Violet Grenville had
become very dear to him.
They had spent great deal of
their time together during those
long, hot days and had paced the
deck after dinner in the cool dark
ness Of those tropical nights, and
she had attracted him more than

divorced my husband nearly two
years ago now. We had only been
married short time, and was ill,
when he went abroad and met there
a married woman who, suppose, at
tracted him. But, to cut the story
short, he-h he finally ran away with
her to Paris after her husband had
been ordered out to South Africa.
She was a Mrs. Walton-oddly
enough, namesake of yours"
Walton had turned livid. "Good
GodH he cried hoarsely. "My
wife!"
"Your wife" echoed his compan-
ion. "Then-then you"- And she
sank back in her chair pale and
trembling.
"Yes," he answered thickly, ''my
wife. | was the husband of that
wretched woman"
"Then it was not coincidence.
as | thought it was, your name be- .
ing the same? | never dreamed of
this" she murmured brokenly.
Walton rose and leaned over the
rail, turning his feverish brow to
the desert, where little breeze was
blowing from the mountains. His
hhnu was IN whlrl, only one
thought being uppermost.
"Then you are really he be-
gan.
LAdy Hippesley," she replied Bit
terly.
) There followed long silence,
only broken by the slow pulsing of
the engines and the ripple and eddy
OF the water caused by the steam
er's wash.
AT length the man reused himself,
and, fixing his eyes yearningly on
the pale face before him, lie said
abruptly:
"Well, darling, and why not? Is
there any Just cause or impedimentp
Why not ?"
"Why not2" she whispered dream

sIGHTSEERs' HEADACHE.
Caused by Strain on the Elevator Mus
cles Of the Eye.

eles Of the Eye.
Academy" or "sightseers' " head
ache is not uncommon experience,
and some observations of Simeon
Smell appear to throw some light on
its causation. Allowing that in GER
tain instances astigmatism or other
form of ametropia is a factor in its
production, he yet argues that there
are other influencing conditions. In
support of this he quotes the expert
ence of lady who always suffered
from severe headaches after visiting
the theater when she had occupied
seat in the pit, but was free from
such a disturbance when she sat in
the dress circle. In the first posi-
ton, it is pointed out, sustained ac-
tion of the elevator muscles of the
eyeballs is required in order to see
the stage, and this is exactly the ac-
ton which is required in studying
a collection of pictures and more
especially in looking at those which
are hung "above the line"
The same experience has been not
ed by Mr.. Smell in the case Of cy-
clists, particularly of those who lean
over the handle bars with the head
lowered and who, therefore, in look
ing ahead keep the eyeballs upward.
A further argument is found in the
experience of miners nystagmus,
which, it is suggested, is due to wea-
riness of the elevator muscles of the
eyeballs, caused by the constrained
position in which the miner works.
There can be no doubt Of the
physiological fact that lateral move
ment of the eyeballs is much more
easy and requires less muscular eff
fort than movement in a vertical
plane. All this goes to show that
muscular strain is involved in sus-
tanned upward movement of the eye
balls, and this may we'll result in
sense of weariness or more pro-

The harbor of Hongkong was
looking its loveliest on this mellow
October afternoon as the big p. and
o. steamer slowly glided from her
moorings amid the crowd of ship
ping that filled The harbor.
There were not many passengers
on board the Parramatta, for this
was not time of the year that
many people Travelled from the east
homeward, but amid the stir and
hustle attendant on the departure
of a big mail steamer and the set
ting down of newly joined passen-
gers two people, both passengers,
formed tranquil contrast. 4<r
Major Walton, although his eyes
rested on the gold tipped hills they
were SO swiftly passing, saw them
not at all. His thoughts were all
inward, too much occupied with a
bitter past to take much heed of the
surroundings of the present. 1t was
the old, old story his mind was
dwelling on-that of woman's
frailty and mans villainy-and,
although the events which had well
nigh wrecked his life had all hap
pened more than a year ago now,
they were brought but too freshly
to his mind by this journey home.
''Home! And what a home COM
ingw he said to himself bitterly.
The story was one perhaps only
too common. He and his wife, the
latter beautiful, spoiled, vain, had
been staying in the south of France
and had gone OH to Monte Carlo for
week or two. Here they had met
Sir Lionel Hippesley, a handsome,
shallow young Englishman, who was
doing his best, without success, to
ruin himself at the tables, although
the money he so freely squandered
was not his, but his young wife's,
and, as rumor ayerred, he had mar
ried 'the pretty Scotch hciress only
for her fortune.
He was staying at Monte Carlo
very much en- garcon, his wife being
i'll at Home and unable to travel.
He and the Waltons became ac-
quainted, and he appeared much
struck by Mrs. Walton's beauty,
while she was both pleased and flat
tered by his admiration and atten-
tions, and her husband, glad that she
should be amused, thought or sus-
peeted no wrong. Under Hippesley's
guidance Mrs. Walton became an
ardent gambler, and good many
bank notes fiuttered away, but Wal
ton was rich man and could afford
to indulge her every whim.
Then had come the war in South
Africa, and Walton's regiment was
among the first ordered to the front,
and he departed, leaving his wife

any other woman he had ever met,
for his wife had never attracted him
or appealed to the intellectual side
of his nature as Mrs. Grenville did,
and, alas, he knew now that the
feeling he had had for his wife was
but purely physical passion born
of her beauty. She could never have
held his mind. She was too shallow,
too vain.
After that conversation with Lady
Grahame Walton's eyes were opened
to the true state of his feelings for
Mrs. Grenyille, but as yet he gave
her no hint. First he must tell her
his story, yet he shrank from the
idea of laying bare the shameful
past before that pure soul.
lt.was a couple of evenings later.
Walton and his companion leaned
side by side over the rail and talked
in fragmentary manner, but there
was an intonation in his voice, a
tenderness in his gray eyes, that
made her heart beat and stirred her
pulses strangely. One little hand
lay near his, and suddenly his closed
on it, and he raised it to his lips and
kissed it passionately.
"My darling" he whispered,
"Violet, / love you. Will you be my
! wife? Speak to. me, darling. Tell
me have not hoped in vain,"
For a moment, as he put his arm
round her and drew her to him, she
yielded to his embrace; then she
hurriedly drew herself away.
"Wait until tomorrow" she mur-

Scare to hearp he cried passion
ately. "Child, don't you guess how
much love you?"
But with a sad little smile she fit
ted from his side and, was lost in the
shadows of the deck.
Punctually at 5 o'clock the next
day Mrs. Grenville appeared on deck,
looking very lovely in her white
dress, though her face was pale and
heavy shadows rested under the
gray blue eyes. Walton, to whom
her coming was as glimpse of para
disc, hurried forward to meet her,
and he carried her deck chair to
secluded corner, shaded from the
glare of the afternoon sun, which
was now creeping to its rest.
"Well, Violet, which is it to be"
he whispered. "You don't know
what tortures of impatience and un-
certainty / have suffered since last
night. Is it to be-yes?" And he
tried to read his answer in her avert
ed eyes.
"Wait," she murmured family.

patiently. "Who is crying?"
'Lloyd," answered several voices.
"What have you been doing to

"Nothing at all, papa" came in
chorus.
"You must have done something" ,"
insisted the voice of experience.
"We're playing that your big chair

then he howled. That's all, truly,
