Once he glanced back and beheld Dew
ey wildly motioning him onward. It
was destined to be the last time he
should see his faithful little mascot
Not until dusk settled down that
night did Reilly draw rein and slide
from the back Of his wlnded mount.
He had little hope Of Dewey overtak-
Ing him, but, banking on thesmascot's s
proverbial luck, hoped to pick him up
somewhere on the return trip. Dewey
had been in many tight places before.
but had always succeeded in'wrlggllng
out Of them.
Reilly had just set about his prepa-
rations for the night when his ear
caught the sound OF swapping twigs
and soft footballs. As he turned the
light OF his campfire fell upon "a brown
face peering at him through tthe un-
dergrowth.
Dewey he shouted joyfuliy. but at
that moment a native runner stepped
out from the leafy screen, andihe dis
covered his mistake.
The messenger had evidently travel

exhaustion. Sinking down on his knees,
he bowed low before Reilly.
"Much god-make allvew he walled.
"Black man no can--chief's son no live

The truth Of the situation flashed

the old chief hoped to recall Reilly and
secure the life OF his son.
In such fragments OF dialect as he
could command Reilly made the mes
senger understand his dlspleasure. He
refused absolutely to return.
Prepared for this possible exigency,
the messenger pleaded on behalf of the
chief for some token from the white
god which would offer protection from
the earthquake and the typhoon.
With surprising alacrity Reilly pro-
duced the chamois skin cover OF his
watch and an indelible pencil. with
the latter he made a few mysterious

How to Walk Upstairs.

A physician. describing how a per
son should walk upstairs, says: "Usu-
ally a person treads on the ball Of his
foot IN taking each step. This is very
tiresome and wearing TO the muscles.
as It throws the entire suspended
weight Of the body on the muscles OF
the legs and feet. You should in walk
ing or climbing upstairs seek for the
most equal distribution Of the body's
weight possible. In walking upstairs
your feet should be placed squarely
down on the step, heel and all. and
then the work should be performed
slowly an1 deliberately In this way
there IS no strain upon any particular
muscle. but each one is doing its duty
In a natural manner" The doctor
might have gone a little further in
the same line and protested again~'
the habit which many persons have

1t was the day following the terrible

Alfalfa MiIls Kept Busy.

Alfalfa meal. though only a very
short time on the market, has already
become an appreciated feeding stun,
according to the Breeders Gazette,
Chicago. which says: It's chief hnndi-
cap has been its relative cost but de-
spite that It has attained such wide
use that every alfalfa mill in the coun-
try has been pushed TO its utmost ca
pacity for some time. This in a meas
ure accounts for the phenomenal de-
mand which has existed for months
for well cured pea green third and
fourth cutting hay OF this sort. Pre-
diction among the best informed men
in the hay trade is that the demand
for good alfalfa hay is Just starting
and that the product of the thousands
Of acres Of new seeding laid down each
successive year VIII attain a ready
sale The main trouble. it is alleged, is
that so far no machine has yet been
invented for the sole purpose Of grind
ing alfalfa However. inventive genius
is at work on the problem, and It is to
be presumed that before very long an
alfalfa mill will be perfected that viii
materially lessen the cost Of grinding.
It is predicted that when this happens
