Consequently General Hamilton re-
viewed them one day in small village

for the purpose of warning them
against any future depredations.
The column had just drawn up and
was waiting for the general to begin
out from hut and across the front of
the line. Suddenly a private left the
line and ran after the rooster
"Haltr' shouted Hamilton.
The soldier ran on. He soon overlook
the rooster and turned back, wringing
the neck OF the fowl. As he passed the
general he noted the fierce scowl on his
face. The soldier, an Irish Canadian.
was not easily daunted, but this time
he temporiZed. Throwing the defunct
rooster at the feet of the general, he
said, There, now; I'll tache ye 4 halt

The Good old Fashioned Game.

Uncle Hiram was bewailing the de-
generacy Of modern sports. Look at
baseball he said. "There amt half
the fun In 1t there was when was
young man. Nowadays the fellers with
the bat don't seem to be able to do any
thing with the ball. There's lots Of
games when they don't make run.
81 mind the time when belonged to
the Fearnaughts of Prairletown. There
was club up in Heddingville that
thought they could beat us without half
trying. They challenged us, and we
took 'em up. They come down one
morning with whole carload of peo-
pie from Heddingvllle to see 'em wipe
us out
swell, sir, we begun playing at 10
O'clock in the forenoon. The game
wasn't finished Mt noon, and we quit
for dinner. At o'clock in the after
noon we went at 1t again. and mighty
nigh the whole town went out to the
pasture where we was playing to see
the game.
First one side would get ahead and
then the other Batting? You never
saw such batting In your life. There
was more than two dozen home huns.
II was close on TO 8 o'clock when the
last man was put out But we beat
'em. We took the concelt out of them
fellers. and they never challenged us
again."
But what was the score. Uncle Hi
ram?' asked one OF the listeners.
"Nlnety-seven to 99," proudly an
swercd Uncle Hiram, "and made 10
of them runs myself. Think OF that

innuendoe because his long chase was
lock Holmes, he had run his quarry to
earth, and the morrow would bring
crisis. Mr. Arnold Thompson realized
that he was off on a tangent. He had
the reputation of being cool and inn
perturbable fellow, one who never lost
his head about women, but he had to
acknowledge that he had made fool
of himself in this affair-that is, all
his friends would say So He had
some excuses for his own ear, and il
they were not sufficient he wasn't go
ing to admit the fact.
At 10 o'clock the next morning the
bachelor started for the hat factory.
He intended to walk right in and talk
about hats and perhaps pass himself
off as retailer. 1t was a small con-
cern, employing only about half dozen
women to sew the braid purchased
somewhere else. The business Office
and the workshop We're in one, and
the romancist entered to find woman
about forty years old in charge. She
explained that the boss had just step
ped out and asked what was wanted.
Mr. Thompson began to talk about
hats, and he was making slow work of
it when one of the girls came forward
and said to the woman:
Excuse me, Mrs Burton, but am I
sewing this right?'
''Are you Genevieve Burton?' asked
the bachelor as she turned to him again.
IL am" she replied as she tried to
blush.
"You-you wrote your name and slip
ped ii behind the sweatband Of this
hat?v
II did, sir"
''W-what was your objects"
''Just trick OF the trade. / am paid
81 week extra for that. That's why
we call it the Romance hat. We have
sent out 1900 hats, and every one has
my name in. Has it given you back
ache to find out where the hat was
nader
"Never again, Genevieve never
again will l believe in woman or ro-
mance" exclaimed Arnold Thompson
in his most tragic tones. And an hour
later he was fleeing the town and try
ing to make himself believe that he was
travelling to broaden his ideas on his
own country.
