So-o-oh! Thcy mnrries I'M they don't
say nothings to nobody. Only the sty-
lish noorwalkcr he writes on my aun-

"Sho nln't married." Patrick rcter-
atcd She amt"
We'll she will be-" mutterod Nathan,
vlndicatively. "Und the new teacher
will lick you tho while you fights. It's
fierce how you make me biles on my
bones. Think slamo."
When the RULED Monitor OF the Win
dow Boxes had been soothcd by the
peaceful Guardian OF tho Goldfish, the
cabinet held council Nathan suggest
ed that 1t might be possible to bride
tho intcrloper. They would give him
their combined wealth and urge him to
turn his eyes upon Miss Blake, whose
room was across the hall She was
very big, and would do exceedingly
we'll for him, whereas she was entire
~ too long and too broad Tor them.
Morris maintained that Teacher
might be held by gratitude. A list
should be made out, and, each in turn,
child q day. should give her q pres
cnt.
Patrick listened to these ideas in
deep and FESTIVE disgust He urged in
stand and copious bloodshcd. Els big
brothers gang could "lct daylight into
the dude" with enjoyment and despatch.
They would watch him ceasolessly, and
they would track him down.
The watching was on easy matter.
for Teacher, in common with the ma
jority OF rulers, lived much in the pub
lie eye. The stranger was often detect
cd prowling In her vicinity. He even
began to bring her to school in tho
mornings. and on these occasions there
were always violets in her coat. He
used to appear at luncheon time nnd
vanish with her. He used to como in
the afternoon and have tea in Room
IS with two other teachers and with
Teacher. Tho antngonisnl Of the Moni-
tor of Goldfish became so marked that
Miss Bailey was forced to demonstrate.
Morris, dear" she began one after
noon, when they were alone together.
''you were very rude to Dr. Ingraham
yesterday. can't allow you to stay
here with mo IL you're going to be-
have so badly You sulked horribly,
and you slammed the door against his
foot OF course, 1t was an accident.
but how would you feel, Morris, IL
you had hurt Dr. Insraham?"
"Glad." said the Monitor Of tho Gold
fish savagcly. Glad"
Morris! What do you mean by say
ing such a thing? I'm ashamed Of you.
Why should you want to hurt friend
Of nine?"
Don't you be friends nit him!" cried
Morris. deserving his fish and throwing
himself upon his teacher. Don't you
doit. Teacher, Miss Bailey. Flo amt no
friends for lady" And then. in an
swcr to Teachers stare Of blank sur
prise, he went on:
my mama she seen him by your side
und she says-I got to tell you In
whispering how she says"
Teacher meckly bent her head and
Morris whispered in an awc-strucls
voice:
my mama says she like that: lie
could be Tlrlsht.'" and then drew
back to study Teachers CONSERVATION.
But she seemed quite calm. Perhaps
she had already faced the devastating
fact. for she said:
Eyes, I know he's a Christian. Tn
not afraid Of them. Are your"
Teacher, no. maam. Misses Bailey, I
amt got no scare over Krlshts, only
they amt no friends for ladies' MY
papa says like that on my auntic, und
my auntic she's married now nit a
stylish noorwalkcr. Vein got ILrisht
