REGULAR Work.

Looking at the less attractive side
of dairy farming it is often urged that
those who follow it are compelled 20
be IN their place every day in the year
without a vacation or holiday. This
is true in many cases, for the cows
must be MIXED each day and the milk
disposed Of. Very often this requires
the personal attention OF the farmer.
especially where the help is not the
most reliable. But is it not true tina;
the successful man in most all other
vocations must attend to his calling
with regularity And ofttimes the 9th
er mans daily task is less independent,
less remuneratiye and more exacting.

CHAPTER VIII.
THE FOG THICKENS.

The coroner's court was crowded, as
it always is at any hearing presenting
features Of morbid or sensational in
~terest, and Goldberg, with an Unborn
love of the theatric, arranged his wit
nesses so as to lead gradually to the
climax, the announcement. He put the
j6nitor on the stand first. and then
had Simmonds tell his story. Some
medical testimony followed as TO the
exact nature of Thompson's injuries,
and the bullet, which had been ex-
tracted, had been put in evidence-it
was plainly much too large to have
come from Miss Croydon's pistol Fin
allv Miss Croydon herself was called.
A little gasp Of delicious excitement
ran through the crowd as she appeared
at the door of the witness room. Here
was n titbit to touch the palates of
even the jaded ponce reporters.
Godfrey, looking at her as she came
steadily forward to the stand, felt his
heart warm with admiration. She
seemed perfectly composed. and If not
perfectly at ease, at least as nearly
so as any woman of her position could
be in such a place. Godfrey was
pleased to see Drysdale in close at
tendance, n he nodded to him en-
couragingly.
Miss Croydon told her story clearly
and with an accent of sincerity there
was no doubling. 1t differed In one
detail from the story she had told
the night before. Thompson, she
said, had perceived the intruder
and there had been a short. fierce
struggle before he fell under the blow
of the pipe. He was not unconscious,
but was struggling to his feet again,
when his assailant shot him.
Jury, coroner, reporters listened with
close attention. Godfrey w I he'd her
with a grim little smile at her superb
assurance. her perfect poise. Then he
glanced at the jury and smiled again
as he noted their seriously respectful
faces. When she had finished, Gold
berg began a brief examination.
THAT Is not precisely the story you
told last night, Miss Croydon" he sug-
gested.
No" she said; mo- was too star
tied, then. too over-wrought to think
quite clearly. This morning l endeav-
ored to recall exactly what occurred"
And you believe that you have sue
ceeded?"
Yes, sir; / am sure Of it."
You would say, then, l suppose. that
the deceased had been killed In self
defense"
Il am not familiar with the niceties
of the law, sir" she answered steadily.
But there was a struggle?"
Yes, sir"
And the deceased was ~endeavoring
to infict some injury upon his ad-
versary?"
He was doing his best to do so, I
should say, sir"
The coroner paused for a moment
and glanced at the jury, but none Of
them seemed disposed to ask any ques-
tons. Then Goldberg mad a sign to
Simmonds. He left the room. but re-
appeared In a moment, leading In Jim
my the Dude. -.

Bound to Stop Then.

In a suit lately tried in a Maryland
court, the plaintiff had testified that
his financial position had always been
a good one. The opposing counse took
him in hand for cross examination and
undertook to break down his testimony
upon this point.
Have you V e been bankrupt"
asked the counsel.
II have not"
Now, be careful" admonished the
lawyer, with raised finger. Did you
ever stop payment"
Yes"
"Ah, l thought we should get at the
truth" observed counsel. with an I'M
pleasant smile. '"When did this sus-
pension OF payment occur?"
When ! had paid all / owed" was
the naive reply Of the plaintiff.
