Allen whistled, in fine amazement.
By jimminy;" said he, Il had clean
forgotten that Sunday ever comes in the
mountains Of course I'll never say
word! Oh, lordyl not world"
"And-Allen," shivered Mr.. Warren,
"of course-Phebe needn't know about
it either"
"Of course not" agreed the fond
lover. But can't help you homer"
'Oh, mol Not at all. No, thanks"
said the hu1nbled parent prospective.
I'll hasten along-and remember, you've
given your word. ;"
You can trust son till the end
asserted Allen gravely.
They shook once more. Dripping, but
burningly red, Mr.. Warren climbed
heavily up the bank, while water and
bubbles came "squshing" from his shoes,
and there he quickly disappeared.
For nearly fifteen minutes after he had
gone, the dutiful Allen did nothing but
stand there and smile. Then he whistled
the call of the mating bob-white, and
out of the cover, still farther down the
stream, came Phoebe, as timid as fawn.
"Oh, if he meets the farmers wife,
he'll know we bought her off, she said
as she fastened to Aliens side
"Popsie wouldn't meet her for a
million of money. Popsie is an altered
and sobered man, duly warped from
his stubborn position, - answered Allen,
and feeling about in the grass he took
from its hiding place a switchboard,
bristling with buttons and levers.
This he manipulated deity In re-
spouse to his movement of the keys
furry occurred in the pool of the river,
and suddenly a metal monster, shaped
like giant cigar, rose to the surface and
gently nosed its way ashore Attached
to its beak was long piece of fish-line,
stout, but freshly broken.
"Oh, Allen" said Phoebe. Your
model! Why-then you cheated poor
papa! 1t wasn't fish after ALL
'Of course it wasn't fish" confessed
the unabashed inventor, taking her face
in his two wet hands and looking at her
fondly. You didn't suppose l ever
could permit the deacon to catch real
fish on the Sabbath"
And Phoebe answered: "Oh!"

in its place.
The deacon felt his heart give a kick
inside his ribs. Good gracious! what a
bitel
The float came shooting to the surface
as before, Only to give three more most
violent hobs, and then to race off side
wise, dancing jerkily up and down and
ducking entirely under, for a time that
seemed eternal.
The deacon felt the clarnmy perspira-
ton ooze from his brow His eyes were
bulging from their sockets. The bob
came up-to race away like thing gone
mad The line was taut, the pole was
bent The float scudded holly through
the water, saving line of crystal jewels
in its wild career. The fish must be a
monster!
Mr.. Warren was staring like one be-
witched. 1t was utterly beyond all
human endurance to remain a passive
observer and behold that bob scooting
swiftly down the pool, and the rod bend
ing double with the strain of some truly
magnificent creature of the deeps.
With a sound like a strangled shout,
the deacon plunged out in the river,
nearly to his knees, and laid hand of
possession on the rod No sooner did
the monster at the end feel new re-
sistance on the line than it simply went
crazy. 1t dived, it flung itself almost
to the surface; it ran amuck against the
current; it rocketed down stream like
a frightened horse.
There was no such thing as holding the
creature The rod was unprovided with
a reel. To save it from breaking short
off in his hand was taxing the utmost
skill of the deacon's angling. Farther
and farther outward he was wading.
He was up to his waist in the tide by
now, and fighting like a Trojan to save
that whale of fish, Then, to his hor-
ror, voice broke abruptly on his ear.
Hold him! Hold him. Mr. Warren!"
came the cry, in the voice of Allen Brett.
"Shall come in and help? Can you
hold him till run and get gaf? Snub
him! Snub him! Give him the butt!"
From the corner of his eye the deacon
saw the tense, manly figure on the bank,
high up among the bushes. When Allen
seemed about to come and help, the fish
gave one mighty jerk ran fiercely against
IllC lCoIl dililIiS Iet(hlC dIlO S1ldppSo oii
the line at the end of the rod
Obj cried the deacon, and launch
ing himself full length in the pool, he
made one frantic, vain endeavor to snatch
the disappearing float, and found himself
obliged to swim, with all his might, to
regain the shelving bank.
BY this time Allen was with him in
the stream, and clutching his coat collar,
assisted him upon his feet. Purple with
emotions, putting like a grampus, wet as
an otter, Mr.. Warren eyed the younger
man in abject despair.
''Oh, too bad-too bad you lost him!"
said Allen. eff only you'd had a decent
rod!"
Tit wasn't mine," stammered the
deacon, wading ashore and dripping woe
fully 1T wasn't mine
'Mores the pity" said Allen. "Oh,
say-to lose fish like that!'
The deacon looked at him furtively,
but could see no sign of anything except
honest commiseration. YES" he fall
tered, ''it-was too bad. He must have

was highly enjoyed by the large

Paden City Park will be opened
for the season in the very near
future. The diversity of amuse-
ments at this popular resort will
consist this summer of about
everything in the line of enter
tanning the visitor that can be de-
vised, unless it would be a daily
exhibition Of the naval tactics of
Admirals Togo and Rojestvensky,
and we might have this if these
gentlemen and their ships were
not otherwise engaged for the
season.
Brinkmier's Studio has been es-
tablished in Sistersville ten years
last month. During these years
they have made thousands of pho
tos with varying success, accord
ing to the ability of their local
artists, but they have always work
ed at low prices, frequently max
ing photos for two dollars that
were selling in larger cities for
eight. Undoubtedly they did not
get rich at it. Recently Mr..
Brinkmier seeing that his place
here was not a financial success, .
gave it personal attention, and !
caused quite stir, making his fine
photos almost for nothing. Many |
people got them and all were high :
ly pleased with the pictures. In
deed some were rare gems of art. !.
The price on this work will be adj
vanced, and an effort will be made
to have the quality better than
ever, and quality is what counts
and Brinkmier's Studio is the
place to get it now.

HEALTH OFFICIALS TO I'M
PROVE CITY'S SANI-
TATION.

August 8, 1905.
To the Citizens of Frankfort:
Whereas the open door policy
toward the South inaugurated by
the State Board of Health of Ken
lucky has made it necessary that
I the greatest precautions for the pro-
lection and preservation of health
be taken, it is the desire of this
Board that the citizens of Frank
fort and vicinity give us their
hearty cooperation in our efforts
to bring about the most perfect san
itary condition possible in this city.
Therefore, the citizens are re-
quested anj directed to take i'm
mediate steps to remove all nuis-
ances and sources of disease, cut
all weeds from their premises, dis
infect outhouses, drain or empty all
places that may become breeding
grounds for disease germs and lend
every assistance possible to pre-
serve the highest state of sanitary
welfare in our city. thereby induc-
ing such greatly needed health re-
forms as will not only prevent yell
low fever from appearing among
us, but will lessen typhoid, diph-
liberia and other diseases that are
prevalent at this season of the year,
and which are the cause of such
large and needless death rate
every year.
! The city ordinance against
throwing rubbish, refuse, trash,
etc., about the streets and in al
leyways will be rigidly enforced.
| This is most fruitful source of
deadly disease germs and should
be guarded against with all vigi-
lance.
A special policeman has been as
signed by the Mayor to assist the
Health Officer in making house to
house inspection, and his orders
as to sanitation must be followed
to the letter under penalty of prose-
cution. By order of the City Board
of Health of Frankfort, KY.
