This friend of mine was reared IN the

years that man could not spell some of the
simplest words unless he stood up. On his

who could turn him down. when 1t came to
an exercise in upright orthography.
Then, years afterward, he had to learn to
spell with a pencil. All his spelling talent
went into his pencil. His tongue had lost
its cunning, and whether standing OF sitting
he would miss the easiest words, unless he
used his pencil.

promptu act than by conscientious work.
l recall a time in Pittsburg when |
struck the aforementioned polar current
through no fault of my own or of the
audience. 1t was the custom of the
house to begin the evening with play
and follow with a vaudeville performance.
The play on the occasion referred to was
Captain Swift" in which the hero was
a charming rascal who always took an
audience by the heart, even when he
ended the play by killing himself.
1t was my misfortune to follow the
play and find the audience in a low state
of mind, which in turn threw a wet
blanket upon me and my work. After
1aboring for a few minutes l said:
Ladies and gentlemen, I've often fol-
lowed a prayer, and sometimes followed
a hearse; but this is the first time ever
followed a suicide" This touch just
tipped the balance, lifted the cloud,
squeezed the water out of the blanket,
made the audience mine, and kept it so
while l held the stage.
At the OrPheum in San Francisco L
was received so kindly that my stay was
extended to three weeks. San Fran
cisco audiences are exceedingly responsive
except Sunday evenings; then, for some
Frisco reason undiscOverable by the
Eastern man, they usually are cold and
the entertainer has to cut ice. On my
last Sunday evening there section of
Greenland's icy mountains seemed to
have come in collision with a cold
storage warehouse just before l APP
peared, for the audience was as unre-
sponsive as a cart-load of frozen CLAIMS.
| worked over them for a few moments
as earnestly as a life-saver over person
rescued from drowning; but to no avail,
so l stopped and said:
Now I've got you nice and quiet,
just have a good long sleep while go
out and leave a call for you" Then l
tiptoed off to the stage so as not to
arouse the sleepers. This started cur
rent of warm goCd-nature; they called me
back, and for the rest of the performance
there was perfect understanding and
sympathy between them and me.

and the faint hum of voices Mrs Ian

lay on the sa1ver the old butler handed
her. She looked into KisterbrOOk's kind,
honest eyes.
Il can't go in there. where all those
people are" she said. Will you come
with me for feel that this is for US both.
She led the way back into a tiny room
at one end of the hall, and Kisterbroo<
followed:
I'VE were married at five, read the mes

Mrs. Lanham handed the yellow paper
to the young Enghshman, and sat down

Dear lady," he said, there is no
apology necessary. They loved each
other, and that should be enough for
us all" He rose and took her hand
''Now let me tell William to send those
people away, while you go and rest
Tomorrow you will be able to look
at it IN a different light, and YOU
will be able to send them the good wishes
they have asked for. And when YOU
send Them he stopped, smiling whim-
sically, send mine too. They are from
my heart. He took his hat and moved
toward the door
Il shall send them tonight, - said Mrs.
Lanham; but before that. - she smiled at
him brightly, Il shall go in the drawing
room, and instead of sending those people
home will announce my nieces marriage.
and ask them to drink the brides health -
Lord KisterbrOOk stepped out into the
winter dusk, and he was still smiling, for
he just had made up his mind that he
would go back to his rooms, and write to

HOW THE LAW WORKS IN ICELAND

IN the midst of all the debate awakened. es-
L pecially in England, by Hall Games treat
ment of the problem of his " Prodigal Son."
as vet there has been said not word of the
novelist's praise of Icelandic customs and
morals. The Anglo-SaxOn world knows moth
ing of such primitive honesty as is known in
that northern land, nor does Europe.
Stephen Marshall, the factor" of a great
London clearinghouse, stationed now at
Reykjavik, who knows the island better than
any other European, declares that scarcely
would it be possible to exaggerate upon the
natives respect for any least outward ex-
preston of the law.
Marshall says he was crossing the wild
country that lies between Reykjavik and
Akureyri, the chief among the northern
MANIFESTATIONS, about two years ago, when he
met a man riding his pony toward the capital.
What is your manner" asked the factor.
Stefan
Whose SOM"
'ThorsteinSson
Where are you goingf'
'To prison."
"What for?"
Stealing sheep"
mo one taking your"
NO; the sheriff was busy, so he gave
me his warrant and sent me on by myself"
Whereupon the two exchanged snuff and
parted.
Four days later as Marshall was returning,
he again met this fellow, evidently on the
way back to his home.
WHAT" he exclaimed, naturally surprised
"Stefan ThOrsteinsson3 Why, you said you
were going to prison
So l was, and went; but they would not
let me in"
why not?"
Il somewhere lost the warrant, and the
sheriff at Reykjavik said he could not receive
me without it."
But why then are you not already at home?
You should have made the journey in two
days"
To this, the answer may sound with a
comic-opera note to American readers but in
1t, says Marshall, lies the core of the whole
lcelandic reverence for the machinery of the
law; Stefan had lost two DAYS time looking
for the warrant which would have locked
him up.
