as a legfui of rheumatism is a legful
Of rheumatism, and therefore legful
Of pain, no matter what the size OF the
sufferer, it is not to be supposed that
rheumatism is a less serious matter
for a canary than for an elephant.
The perches, therefore, should be kept
dry. If the little feet get sore, bath
ing in rOsewater will cure them. If
the bird has chill it should have two
or three doses Of olive oil and be shell

warm weather birds should not be

noonlit ard sparkling, after a day OF
relentless heat ana humidity, and not
a night for disaster at all. But one
overlook them-a fiery sheet of flame
beside which the suns rays of the day
just closed were merciful. Melinda
heard just one long. hoarse cry, saw
one great fash of light, felt an arm
jerk her to her feet, aud then every
thing was blank. This may have been
because the day had been so long and
hard or because the girl had never in
all her reading days thought of what
one ought to Go when fire broke out on
q crowded boat.
Something cool and lovely was trio.
King on her forehead, her eyes. her
cheeks, her lips She was floating on
a cloud. No, she was lying on wet
sand, and the assistant matron was
murmuring:
NO, no, she's not hurt. It was just
the shock. She will be all right in a
minute. But you, you wonderful,
wonderful boy, to save us both"
oh, yes, the fire, the trampling feet,
the brief glimpse into the great beyond
she remembered it all now. And
some one had saved them. There was
a real knight in New York after all.
She wanted to open her eyes and see
him, but the lids were so heavy, so
heavy. But she knew he was straight
and tall and dark and pale and slen-
der. All knights must be. And then
the other voice said brokenly:
You know / never had a chance to
tell her loved her She was so back
ward and shy and always seemed to
be looking right past me. She amt
like other girls 1 know-and you're
sure she'll come around all right"
Something in the voice made Melin-
da's eyelids turn light again. They
popped open, and she looked straight
into the anxious eyes Of the elevator
boy.
'Oh, then it wasn't a knight after
ALL" she murmured as the assistant
matron began 20 chafe her hands once
more.
Melinda was sitting on the edge of
the bed in the assistant matron's- room.
Il suppose they don't have to be tall
and slender and pale and interesting if
their hearts are all right and knightly.
And Billy's heart is all right He don't
have to run an elevator, you know.
His mother has quite a little money,
but he's going to be an electrical en-
gineer or superintendent OF big build
ings or something of that sort, and he
says he wants to know everything
from running elevators to running men,
and then he can support me and mann
ma too. But when his mother came in
TO see me today she patted my hand
and kissed me on both cheeks and said
there was no reason why Billy and
should have to wait that long, because
she thought there was love enough in
my heart to keep two mothers going.
and she had no daughter. She's just
lovely, his mother is, and you'd know
she was just the sort whose son would
be q knight
And the assistant matron remem-
bered stern. white face she had seen
for just an instant on that dreadful
night, felt once more the grip of his
firm, strong hand and murmured,
Yes, of such stock do real knights

stopped Monday about two miles
out from Hope for the purpose of
removing an obstruction from the
track which the engineer took to
be hog, but which turned out to
oe a man sleeping on the track.
The engineer sounded the whistle,
but as the noise seemed to make
no impression on the supposed hog,
the engineer decided some one had
put a dead hog on the track to have
it run over and then put in claim,
so he decided to thwart the little
game by stopping his train and re-
moving it. The engine was brought
to stop just in time TO save j. A.
VanRiper, a mill man living at
this place, who, starting out from
Hope to "count ties" had become
weary with his "load" and fallen
asleep on the track.
