Tn. Glory Of Life.

The human race is still in Its infancy.
Up to the present moment, with a few
grand exceptions, man has lived mostly
an animal existence. The brute Is only
partially educated out Of him. He has
not yet evolved that superb character,
that diviner man. f~oreshadowed In the
beast How few people ever get any
thing more than a mere glimpse OF the
true glory Of lifei Few of us see any real
sentiment in life or anything above the
real animal existence and animal pleas
ures. Most of us look upon our occu-
patton as a d~isagreeable necessity that
somehow or other ought to have been
and might have been avoided. The
trouble with many of US is that we
think too meanly of ourselves. Our
sordid aims and material, selfish am
billions have so lowered u standards
that we think downward instead of up
ward; we grovel instead of soaring.
Our lives are materialistic, selfish,
greedy, because we live in the base of
our brains, down among the brute fac
ulties. We have never explored to any
great extent the upper regions Of our
brain, never developed our higher intel
ligence.-Success Magazine.

his cigar had formed a dense cloud
which obliterated the starry heavens
from his gaze Welton dropped his eyes
and stared at two points Of yellow
light that oscillated neal the ground.
They were ten inches apart, and
they moved In unison. Welton calcu-
lated that they must be just without
the bamboo stockade which inclosed
the compound.
There was a prickly feeling along the
spine, and he could feel the hair rails
ing slightly around his forehead as he
realized that Chuni had neglected to
close the great gate and that there
was perhaps only a hundred feet in
tervening between the man eater and
the open window Of the little drawing
room.
He thought rapidly, with his eyes
fixed on the lambent points Of flame in
the velvet gloom of the gateway. If
he made a dash for the window and
the safety that lay beyond the beast
would spring before he could close the
shutters behind his retreating form. If
he could make Akerslie hear. at least
the women would be safe.
"Akerslie!" he called in a low, clear
whisper.
"Yes" came the other mans lazy
tones

man eater His words were lost in
the quick manipulation of the iron rods
from within, and the shutters fell with
a clang. plotting out the glow of light
and leaving Welton alone to face the
tiger.
The momentary confusion reused the
beast into action. Welton could see
the slow approach Of the yellow eyes,
,could hear the padding Of the great
paws on the sandy path. and now his
long sinuous form was dimly outlined
In the starlight.
Welton remembered that he had left
his revolver on his dressing stand. 1t

the odds on the other side. At any

A QUESTION
OF TINE.

Literary Press. :


A night In India-humid, breathless,
with great stars hanging in the dark
blue sky and the dank odor of rotting
vegetation from the nearby jungle.
From his seat in a bamboo reclining
chair Welton stared unwinkingiy at
the blazing consultations. The punka
boy had fallen into exhausted slumber
on the mat. and the huge fan hung
motionless overhead.
Welton could heal the low murmur
OF voices from the interior of the
bungalow. and he knew that by slight
ly turning his head he could see the
pink glow of light from the shaded
lamp and the reflection Of two faces
In the large mirror In the corner.
The two forms leaned over the pi-
ano, the white fingers Of Marion Les
ter drawing soft harmonies from the
instrument. while Akerslie murmured
tenderly In her pretty ear.
And it was because of these two at
the piano that Welton was very mis-

corner of the room, and as for him.
self-weil, be seemed not to be In It
at ALI
Colonel Lester was Quartered at
Lucknow, and when 1t was learned
that Welton could not obtain the de-
sired leave of absence to visit his
sweetheart Mrs. Lester had good ma
turedly undertaken the journey to
Welton's isolated station at Cola Chat.
The unexpected visit Of the two wo-
men had thrown the little station into
a blissfui confusion of preparation.
The depredations of q man eating tiger
had furnished an i~nexhaustible source
Of conversation and had been the occa
sion for many tentative trips into the
jungle for several weeks before the ad-
ven of the visitors, but now all was
forgotten save the fact that there would
be new faces to break the dead mo
notony Of the days-the fresh faces and
low toned voices of refined English
women.
And then Akerslie had stepped In
and spoiled 1t all. He had come up to
see Welton and to try pot shots at the
"a eater, but he had met Marion Les
ter. and In spite Of the fact that he
was Welton's guest and that he knew
the relations existing between the two
he paid assiduous court to the girl.
Thus far she had repealed his ad-
vances with a digniied GOODNESS that
seemed to infiame him to greater ardor.
This evening. however, the gentleness
of her manner toward him and her
careless treatment Of her lover had
driven the latter to sulky solitude in

John Dilwood, junior partner of the
Erskine & Dilwood law firm. wandered
aimlessly around the new Union sta
ton trying to kill time waiting for the
train. He had promised his partner
that, as he would be In Washington
that week. he would make a special
point of meeting Mrs. Erskine's train
and transferring her safely to the
southbound train. He had started to
the station an hour earlier than neces-
sary in order that be might have time
to look at the new station which every
Washingtonian was loudly proclaiming
the biggest in the world. But here he
found that an hour was more time
than a railway station could satisfac-
torily fill, ever though it lived up to
its reputation.
He looked at his watch and found
to his satisfaction that 1t lacked only
six minutes until the Pittsburg train
was due. He hurried through the
gates and reached 1t just as a leisurely
official marked the train an hour late.
The official seemed. from Mr.. Dill
woods point of view, to take a fiendish
delight In writing it slowly and care

fully, as If there was plenty OF time
for everything.
"Uh-m," said Mr.. Dilwood in an
eloquent half voice.
The girl in front of him, who had
been anxiously eying the same bulle-
tin, grasped the arm Of the small boy
with her.
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1908-08-21

49, Oh, dear, she varied. 7 eve was
SO dead tired of waiting in my life. If
/ only knew he would be sure to come
it wouldn't seem SO bad. 1t will be
half past @ before the train gets in
now. Bobbie. Let's go in the cafe and
get some hot chocolate. I'm going to
drink mine a spoonful at a time and
count ten between each sip to help
make that hour pass. for I've read ev-
cry magazine on the stand"
The hot chocolate evidently appealed
to Bobbie. Dilwood saw him lead the
way toward the cafe with an absolute
Indifference tt the failure of time
schedules.
When Dilwood stopped at the cash
ier's desk later to pay for a cigar the
girl came to settle for the chocolate
that had fallen decidedly short of &C.
cupying an entire hour.
Dilwood, lighting his cigar at the
lighter, spoke to the cashier, "That
western train has had time for a full
sized wreck"
The girls eyes dilated. and she turned
suddenly, utterly oblivious of his being
an unintroduced man. Ibid you say
the western train had been wrecked? p
she asked b~reathlessly.
"No, no! Don't be frightened. l
was merely joking about the long
wait" he FASTENED to ssure her. She
gave the cashier a thirty cent check
and a bill and In her excitement rush
ed off without the change to see with
her own eyes the latest bulletin. Dill
wood smiled at the cashier.
"Oh, these women!" he said whimsi-
cally. IF you will lay that change
aside, I will tell her to come for it be-
fore she leaves"
I'm sorry l gave you such a fright"
he said when he found her peering
through the bars down the track.
"I'm always expecting a wreck-it's
one of my horrors" The casual friend
liness of her tone showed a childish
indifference to his being a stranger.
Perhaps you haven't lived In a city
long," he hazarded, an indefinite some
thing causing him to imagine that city
ways were strange to her.
"Oh. yes-ages-two years" Her
Eyes were still focused on a distant
point on the track.
Dilwood found himself possessed Of
an amount of curiosity foreign to him.
The piquancy of her face. vibrating
with the joy Of living. yet frank TO a
childish degree, fascinated him.
II you don't mind my talking to you
and-Bobble," he suggested, smiling
into the friendly face of the boy, who
had been taking stock of him admiring-
ly. Dilwood knew he had a good
tailor and was gratiied to see that he
had at least made a good impression
on Bobbie.
The boys smile broadened.
"You won't find talking to my sister
a hard job. She does it all herself" he
winked socially.
"Now, Bobbie Tisdale, you are al
ways pretending that l talk too much
and that l can begin In the year one
and bring history up to date in an
hours conversation"

with an affection not generally ELECTED
by small boys. but he no longer looked
upon Bobbie as a small boy. He was
a method Of procedure. ~ hope, then,
you will consider that you have known
me at least fifteen minutes and will
skip the creation, the fall of Rome, the
civil war and a few other items and
bring history far enough down to date
to tell me more-friendly things"
I'm the beginning l accepted a posi-
ton under the civil service and moved
to Washington and put Bobbie In the
public schools. where he played foot
ball the first part of the term and fail
ed in Latin the second part thereof"
she laughed.
THERE told you she could tell
everything she knew in a few min
utes," declared Bobbie disgustedly.
"But she's promised not to tell John
about the Latin. He's coming on this
train we're waiting for. She perfectly
daffy about John"

heart of Mr.. Dilwocd. as 1t permitted
to ask who John may be?" he asked
gloomily.
"Oh. he may be president some day
or most anything in that line" declared
the boy airily. but just at present he's
our big brother coming to spend his
two weeks vacation with us. He's
been in Chicago six months learning to
be a lawyer. He's a clerk in Erskine
& Dilwood's Office"
Dilwood made a hasty search for his
cardcase.
II happen to be Dilwood," and his
entire satisfaction with his lot in life
beamed from his eyes. HE is a re-
markably promising boy, Miss lis
dale" He was in the meantime trying
ferventiy to remember just which of
the twenty employees was Tisdale. He
himself Travelled for the firm and spent
very little time in the Office.
"Oh. Mr.. Dilwood, do you really think
SOP" she questioned eagerly. her face
flushed with pleasure.
"He has the making of a first class
lawyer" he vouched stoutly for the
capabilities of the youth of twenty that
he was in mortal terror he would fail
to recognize when the train arrived.

Dilwood's hypocrisy was so thickly
laid on that he feared even the frank.

that he would have to manufacture
those special instructions before the
next day.

bulletin.
