or dude, as Wallace called him. The
scenery along the stage route was both
beautiful and diversified; the young
man was much interested, and as he sat
on the box, or post of honor, beside Wal
lace, literally piled him with questions
as to what mountain that was and what
river this was, etc.
The old driver, who detested this sort
Of interrogation, stood it as long as he
could. Finally. he bIurted out: Say,
stranger, if you'll mind your business
Ill mind mine.n
Thus snubbed, the young man re-
lapsed into silence.
They had driven about ten miles
farther when they came to a long hill,
where the driver was obliged to apply
the brake. AS he showed his foot
toward it he Immediately noticed that
the mail bag, which always lay there,
was gone Evidently it had dropped of
along the road.
Wallace stopped his horses; then.

Say, stranger, did you see that mail
bag slide OFF,
yes, I did; some ten miles back, %
calmly remarked the young man.
Well, why in thunder didn't you tell
me?" gasped the astonished driver
The dude" looked him squarely in
the eye for moment. and then he
drawled, initiating VILLAGES tone:

and I'll mind mine,
The rest Of the journey was driven
in cold silence.

his horses when we all had look,
and then he beekoned to the cowboy

reply.

"As 10 how a critter can pull him

markable for the picture Of an I'm

for this head was the son of Prince

that he asked the ehild's name, and
obtained the parents permission to
make a drawing of him for this pur-
pose.
