For moment the girl stood
speechless.

oh, mani she called desperately,
but the owner of the fishing rods was
wandering in a dream-world, shifting
| the damp, earthly, evening smells,
| communing with the approaching
, spirit of night, deaf to any but trum-
pet voices.
''Welll" she exclaimed explosively,
with an energy that emptied her lungs
to the remotest corners. We'll, l like
that. I'd just like to know what I'm
i going to do?"
And in answer to the query, the
officious, obtrusive, sub-conscious self
set her in motion, and she found her
self heading toward her boarding
place to the monotonous inward wall
of And It's the only hat l have with
mel"
Meanwhile the young man drove
on musingly, blissfully, until he reached
the house where he was staying, all
unconscious of his latest and most un-
usual catch The light was stream
ing warmly from the windows as he
drove past the side of the house, UP to
the barn and jumped out.
At the sight of the dark object dim
ly visible at the end of his poles, he
stared in surprise. A moment later,
when he had carried them into the
patch of light from the nearest win
dow. his hands dropped helplessly.
There it was, a trim. natty hat-a
woman's hat Orr no-a girls hat.

there was something coquettish, play

strangest object a fisherman ever

"Where'd it come from?' demand
ed the boy who, had come out to un-
harness the horse. Then, suddenly,
as if the joke were just revealed to
! him, he burst into loud guffaw, in
which the young man Joined in spite
of himself.
Later on he worked it out. 1t must
belong to the slender young girl who
had waited for him to drive past. He
remembered distinctly now that she
had poised there at a certain cross
ing, waiting for him to get by, a sort
of shadow girl who had seemed a part
of his musings. Doubtless she had
passed close behind the buggy and
the bobbing poles with the dangling
hooks had parodied the tragedy of

STARTING OF AMERICAN
SURGERY OF THE
BRAIN.

American brain surgery started in
Massachusetts stone quarry. An Irish
iaborer, jamming a crowbar into hole
where part of a charge Of dynamite
was lying in wait. produced the logical
result, the crowbar entering the head
at the side of the jaw and projecting
foot cut beyond the vault Of the skull.
The foreman notified the coroner; some
one else sent for a doctor. The doctor
got there first. removed the crowbar
and took the patient to the hospital,
where, to the amazement Of the entire
profession, the man recovered Up to
that time the brain substance had been
regarded as prohibited territory, but.
the doctors reasoned. surely a surgeons
knife can go where a one-inch crowbar
can pass without fatal results.-Samuel
Hopkins Jams, in McClure's.

Absalom. But how should he find
her and restore her headgear?
The same problem was tormenting
the brain of the owner of the hat and
as a result the postmistress received
two notices within the next hour. with
the request that she put them up in
the postoffce.
IF the person whose carelessness"
the word carelesSness was under
scored-"led to the unlawful acquisi-
tion of a hat last evening will leave
same with the postmistress the owner
will feel in some measure placated,"
read the first one. And the second
was like this: 'If the owner of a hat
that mysteriously disappeared on
Tuesday evening will leave her name
and address with the postmistress it
will be returned immediately
Before noon of the following day
the young man, now thoroughly alert
and no longer the dreamy, needless
fellow of the night before, might have
been seen vending his way along one
of the broad. shaded streets of the
village, gingerly carrying a parcel
wrapped in tissue paper His anxious
scrutiny of the houses showed that
he sought some familiar place, but at
last. after final vacillating moment
he opened a gate and went in.
In the comfortable. old-fashioned
parior he waited for the owner of the
hat; waited-though he did not know
that until later-for the appearance of
the lady of his life. 1t was not that
she was wonderously fair or in any
way distinguished as the heroines of
the story books always are. He never
just found out why it was. but from
the moment that the slender, girlish
figure appeared in the doorway and
turned quizzical eyes upon him, his
heart beat to new, strong theme.
But didn't YOU hear me call?" she
asked when they had laughed, ex-
planned and apologized, he for cap
turing the hat and she for the under
scored word in her notice. Didn't
you hear me shout, "Oh, man, stop?'
He shook his head penitently, for
even SO soon it seemed incredible that
with her voice calling he should not
have heard. Then the talk turned to
other things, and with a glad sort of
a shock he discovered that in town
they lived in the same square
And to think that I have never
seen you," he exclaimed with slow
wonder, as If the thing were scarcely
credible. and thereuDon the girl
laughed, for she had seen him again
and again, always with warm ap-
proval of his swinging gait and a GER
tain air that said that he could look
out for himself and somebody else
beside. Once, she remembered, she
had wondered who the somebody
would be.
Probably it's because you never
fshed for me before" she ventured
mischievously, and then she caught
her lip between her teeth and wished
she hadn't spoken. for his face be-
came very earnest. and there was a
conquering ring in his voice as he an
swered slowly but determinedly:
Perhaps so. But from now on. /
am going to fish for years if need be
| fish until you yield from sheer weari-
ness of seeing me sitting motionless
on the bank-until can win you for

And he kept his word so we'll that

THE SENSIBLE SWISS.

Our friends of the picturesque cos
TUNES and customs who dwell within
the shadow of the Alps are a pretty
level-headed folk. While in sense
isolated from the busy world and liv-
ing life almost Arcadian In its sim
plicity. the Swiss are by no means lag
CARDS in the march of progress. We
delight to boast of our public school
system. but the education given in the
schools of Switzerland is in many re-
spects more comprehensive and prac-
tical than that offered in our curricu-
lums. The girls, for instance, are
taught not only to read and write and
spell, but to cook, to wash, to sew. says
Robert Webster Jones in the March
Housekeeper. In addition to being
trained for the duties of homemaking
and housekeeping. each girl is taught
some useful trade. Many of the pu-
pills are daughters of rich parents and
there is little likelihood of their ever
having to earn their own living, but
the paternal government takes the
view that every member of society
should possess the ability to be self
supporting. even though the necessity
to exercise that ability should never
arise.
The boys. too. have not been neglect
ed in the Swiss system of education.
Physical culture and manual training
have prominent places in the curricu-
lum, and every boy on leaving the pub
lie school is equipped to earn his own
living. Fads and frills are absent from
the Swiss schools. The hard-headed
taxpayers want to see some return for
their money. They demand that the
education for which they pay shall be
practical and useful in after life.

BAIRD LOSES LICENSE.
Stesoards Claim Jockey Obtained
Permit Under False Pretences.
By Telegraph % The Tribune,


Saratoga, n. Y, Aug. Pat a meeting OF the
stewards OF the Jockey Club held yesterday after
noon, the license OF Harry Baird. the lightweight
Jockey. who was suspended by the stewards of the
meeting few days ago. ostensiby for being left
at the post on Sydney Paget's Woodsaw was re-
voked.
Contrary to the general impression Of the pub
lie that the boy would be punished for his ride
Woodsaw, the stewards based the action the
fact that Baird had obtained his apprentice allow
ance under false pretences. At the same time the
Jockey Club ruled Robert Nicholson. who held q
contract under which the boy rode for him, off the
turf.
An apprentice boy ceases to be a year after
he has won his first race, and the stewards evil
IDENTIFY have discovered that Baird was ringer, SO
far as his apprenticeship concerned. It is the
universal opinion however, that the stewards
ly selected this charge the easiest by which
the turf could be rid Of undesirable jockey. and
that had II been necessary serious charges
could be brought against him.
1t will be recalled that D. w. Thomas. OF Buff
falo obtained a temporary injunction some time
ago restraining the boy from riding on the ground
that he was apprentced TO him. The injunction
was dismissed and Baird returned to his first en-
ployer, for whom he has been riding since.
A number OF his rides have been Of a character
TO arouse the suspicious Of the stewards and the
public and when he set down on Friday for
being left-purposely, it alleged-on Woodsaw
it was freely predicted that he would not ride in
the East again for many long gay. .
