| Come in, said father.
| The door was opened just far enough to ad
init small, black, woolly head. 1t was lAt
tie Tom.
"Mass Steptoe" he said, "pap amt nebber

Father was unable to resist this appeal. Ills
hand went into his pocket, and brought forth
handful of change He counted out ten
cents, and handed them to Tom.
"Be, sure and don't get cheated, Tom, he
very handsome dog, indeed"
"1n course it orter," said Little Tom; zen he

nHe seems to be composed of five quarters,
said father "You couldn't divide common
dog into more than four"
Spats so, l makes no Doubt" said Little
Tom "but dis yere pup hain't no common pup.

Well. rs much 'bleege ter yer, Mass Steptoe,

"Well," said my father, that night, as we
were all gathered around the fire in the study,
Little Tom said he would bring the dog home
this evening, but am afraid that the boy has
raised on the price, for Tom would be sure and
bring him right here, and show him to us at
"There he comes now" said mother.
We heard the tramping of feet in the hall,
the door was pushed open, and Tom came in
painting for breath, and tugging at rope. that
appeared to be attached to some animal out
in the hall, but it was too dark for us to see
what.
MASS Steptoe," he cried, there am de pup
here he am, sho. Come in yere, yo' obstinate
creeter!"
The pup had evidently not been taught to
lead. for he braced his feet against the door
sill, and pulled back with all his might, but
al length Tom succeeded in dragging him in.
Mother lighted the lamp, in order that we
might get a better view of the new acquisition.
He was not much to look at His hair was
rough and scraggy. His tail and one Of his
ears had been cut off, In color, he was a
dingy brown, with white spots.

he had chance of buying one that
took his fancy.
Consequently, we were always well supplied
with dogs. 1 can remember them well; the
troublesome young pups; the well-behayed
middle-aged dogs, and the. grave old patriarchs
that used to sit out at the side of the house
where the sun shone, and it was warm, on the
cool mornings of spring and early autumn.
They always reminded me of old men, those
old dogs, and | used to think. as they sat
there blinking at the light and lazily swapping
at the flies, that they were dreaming over
again the exploits of their puppyhood, and
that they talked to each other OF the sad de.
cline of old customs, and of the unheard-o of
carryings-on of pups nowadays.
Father used to go out and speak to them,
and pat them on the head; they always seem
ed grateful to him for this attention, and
would appear brighter and happier all the re-
used to speak to them sometimes, but they
would never pay the least attention to me,
and would sit there as grave as judges. If l
ventured to pat them on the head they would
a GIRL don't know.
But the dog l intend to tell you about was
not one of these, when l first knew him.
Ever since could remember, Big Tom had
lived on my fathers farm. He was called Big
Tom not on account of his size, although he
was large man, but to distinguish him from
his boy, Little Tom.
Little Tom was very much attached to my
iathers dogs, and would spend whole days
playing with them.
He had long had an ambition to be the own
er of dog himself, but could never persuade
his father to buy one for him, for the yery
good reason that Big Tom never had any mon
ey. 1t was in vain that he enlarged on the beau
ties of the various pups that he discovered in
the neighborhood, and the necessity of keep
ing Watchdog, now that SO many thieves
ways ways replied by asking him this question:
fo' him?" p"'
Which question, Little Tom was never able
to answer.
One afternoon, while father and 1 were in
the study labelling some geological specimens
we heard some one out in the yard singing:
" Possum CLONE er simmon tree
EFT all de simmons he cod see:
'Possum CLONE down on de groun'.
EFT all de simmons he cud foun.'"
"Who is that?" said my father.

nile this conversation was going on, Tom
1au thoughtlessly let go of the rope, and the
cog, seeing his chance, dashed out of the open
uoor and was gone.
Tom, as soon as he saw what had happened,
ran after him. He hunted all over the prem
lses, but Wash was nowhere to be found and
at last he gave up his search, and went home
in very low spirits.
The next day, however, he made his ap-
pearance in great good humor, dragging after
him the truant Wash. He had been to the
nome OF the former owner, and there found
him; but the boy, true to nature, demanded
another dime.

Wisconsin Farmers Experience In
Raising This Crop.


do not often raise buckwheat, but
like to grow it occasionally. 1t does
well on almost any kind Of soil. It
comes in very nicely as a late crop.
If have piece of land which has
been neglected until too late Tor other
grain crops, this land can be seeded
to buckwheat. Or If have field Of
corn where the seed failed to sprout
this can also be sown to buckwheat.
If the ground is very poor IL should
have an application of stable manure.
1t may be plowed any time before
seeding. The ground should be fitted
as for any other small grain crop. IL
is advisable to have the seedbed thor
oulshly prepared and the more work
put on it the better the results. 1
SOW buckwheat any time between
June 90 and July 4. AS the acreage is
not large l usually SOW by hand, using
about one peck to the acre.
The crop should be harvested be-
fore frosts occur, explains this writer
in Orange Judd Farmer If sown later

may be cut by hand, using q cradle,
or with the ordinary reaper. Each
bundle should stand by itself. with
band around the top. These should
be left in the field until the straw and
grain are dry. After that the crop can
be stacked and threshed as any other
small grain. l sometimes sell buck
wheat to the millers. At other times
l have it ground and put the buck
wheat flour up in 25-pound sacks and
sell these at retail.
All in all, buckwheat is very salts

weedy and want to partly summer fall

4<eepino Parents In sublectlon.

In the life of the very rich some
parents still seek to resemble those
curfews incarnate In humble life who
keep the girls at home and the boys
out of the barrooms. Middle life and
old age are too hidebound to get &C.
customed to the manners of the new
generation of young men who are old
and worn before they graduate and of
young women who win or lose large
sums at gambling. Children have a
right to expect from their parents do
Gle obedience. AT first this may be
difficult, but, as Aristotle says, "yir-
tue is habit" and 1t can be acquired.

How did you find that out?" asked
the American, obviously somewhat
disappointed.
Because you get your shoes shined

you were an Englishman you wouldn't
do that. Nobody takes such good care
of their shoes as Americans. If it
were not for their daily shine lot

to Americans, Russians get a shine
most frequently. The English are the
worst of all. They get shine only
once week. Even when otherwise
well dressed their shoes are gray and

Tho zulu War Cry.

The Zulu war cry, used whenever
they take the field by the South Afri-
can footballers now in. London, has
puzzled our newspapers, not one Of
which seems able to spell 1t correctly,
says Notes and Queries. The Daily
Express gives it as "Igamllzho," and
the Daily Mail as "Gammillo." The
cry really consists of two words, and
should be written 'Igama layo."
''Igama" is Zulu for name" and
,"layo" is a possessive pronoun, mean
Ing either "his" or their" Thus the
Daily Mail, although quite wrong in
Its photography of the cry, is right in
saying that it merely means THAT is
his name" The explanation Is that
