The Big Chief S
Resolution.
By ALEXANDER BUM.
Copyright, 1907. by Mary McKeon

The big chief cut the pOrterhouse
steak with an air of pleasant anticipa-
ton 1t was broiled just right, and the
onions were not the least bit greasy.
There fitted through his mind hazy
realization of the fact that even a man
with a terrible cold in his head might
be able to get some JOY out of life
while porterhouse steaks and fried on
ions existed.
Put that screen between me and
the door. Jack" he said to the waiter
who was showing off all his curves to
earn the tip that so well groOmed a
man generally proved good for II
have an abominable cold and feel chill
ly every time the air strikes me"
The negroes mind was stimulated by
the frieDdliness of the tone, and he
quickly multiplied his first vision of a
tip by two. He surrounded the big
chief by so large a japanese screen
that the latter had a private dining
room to himself, and the other people
in the room soon forgot he was there.
a few minutes later Il man and a
girl stood in the door Of the cafe and
scanned the room eagerly for Il vacant
table.
There was only one, a small table
wedged up close to a japanese screen.
They sat down, the girl talking rapid
ly while she removed her gloves and
veil.
IT'S nice to be up here i'll corner,
Karl" she said joyously; cts so coy.
and we have it all to ourselves"
She sighed with pleasure when the
bill of fare was finally laid aside and
the waiter departed with his order

lie Ace of Deer.

Romance has played a prominent
part with regard to the longevity Of
deer, says a writer in Chambers Jour
nal. What says the highland adage
Thrice the age Of a dog is that Of a horse.
Thrice the age Of q horse is that of a man.
Thrice the age Of man is that Of deer
Thrice the age of a deer is that of an
eagle
Thrice the age of an eagle is that Of an
oak tree.
This is to assign the deer a period Of
more than 200 years, and the estimate
is supported by many highly circum-
stantill stories Thus Captain Mae
donald Of Tulloch. who died in 1916.
aged eighty-siX years. is said to have
known the white hind Of Loeb Treig
for fifty years his father for like
period before him and his grandfather
for sixty years before him. So in 1896
Macdonald Of Glengarry is reported to
have killed a stag which bore a mark
on the left ear identical with that
made on all the calves he could catch
by Ewen-MacIan-Og who had been
dead 100 years. Analogous stories. it
may be noted, are told in countries on
the continent of Europe where deer
are to be found in any number But.
alas, the general opinion among ex-
perts would seem to be that thirty
years or thereabouts is the limit of a
deer's life.
