The Billboard Fiaht.

An ordinance which is expected to
force billhoards from the residence dis
tricts was recently approved by the
Chicago council building committee
1t requires billboard companies to Sc
cure consent of two-thrds of the prop
erty owners on both sides of the street
before erecting billboard in any block
in the RESIDENCE district. Any block
in which a majority Of the lots are
occupied by residences is to be con-
sidered, for the purpose of the ordi-
nance, residence neighborhood.
Strong protests were made by the rep
resentatives of the billboard companies
when the ordinance was first consid-
cred by the building committee, but no
further objections were made at the
time of its approval, energy being re-
served for action later, but it is be-
lieved that this ordinance will even
tually drive the billboard from resi-
dence districts.

CHAPTER XXXIV.

With the birds and flowers once
more returning to Christmas Cove,
came outdoCr freedom for Chip again.
Like the wood-nymph she was in char.
acter and taste, the wild, rock-bound
coast outside and the low, wooded
mountain enclosing this village were
her Fairgrounds where she found com.
partnership. Other associates she cared
but little for, and a few hours alone
on wave-washed shore, watching the
wild ocean pillows tossing spray aloft
or long ramble in deep, silent for
est, appealed to her far more than
parties and girlish enioyments.
The wood-bordered road, leading
from the village to the railroad ten
miles away, was now favorite walk
of hers. 1t was suited to her in many
ways, for it was seldom travelled; it
followed the sunny side of the low
mountain range back of Christmas
Cove, not house stood along it's en-
tire way, and to add charm, a brook
kept it company, crossing and recross
ing it for two miles. That feature was
the most especial attraction, for beds
of watercress waved beneath the
limpid waters in deep pools, punches
Of flag grew along its banks, their
blue flowers bending to kiss the cur.
rent; its ripples danced in the sun
light; it's music was a tinkling mel
ody, and these simple attractions ap
pealed to Chip.
There was also another reason for
now choosing this byway walk. She
knew, or felt sure, that Ray would
visit Christmas Cove on his return

Good Japanese Innovation.

An Austrian military organ draws
attention to one of the minor details
of the Japanese musketry practice
during the late war which seems to
have escaped notice in Europe. In
European armies the question of a
rifle rest for long~range firing has led
to many ingenious contrivances for
devising tripod arrangements. The
Japanese war department solved the
difficulty in a much simpler but equal
ly effective way. They just provided
the soldier with a bag Of stout cotton
eight inches wide and 20 inches long,
which he could carry in his cartridge
case on the march, and on reaching
the fighting line could in minute
stuff with earth or stones. The device
gave amazing assistance in accuracy
or rife fire.-New Orleans Picayune.

CHAPTER XxXllI.-continued.

! And then while she, thus lone and
lonesome, was putting away books,
states, inli-bottles and all the badges
of her servitude, Chip, without knock
ing, walked in.
How they first exclaimed, then en-
braced, then kissed, and then repeat
cd it while each tried to wink the
tears away, and failed; how they sat
hand in hand in that dingy, smoke
Drowned room with it's knife-hacked
benches, unconscious of the chill, while
Chip told her story; and how, just as
the last rays of the setting sun flashed
from the icicles along it's caves, they
left it, still hand in hand, was but an
episode such as many a schoolgirl can
recall.
OF the few friends Greenvale held
for Chip, none seemed quite so near
and dear as Miss Phinney, and none
lived longer in her memory. They
had been for many months not teacher
and pupil, but rather two sisters, con-
liding patient, and tender. Life swept
them apart. They might never meet
again. and yet, so long as both lived,
never would those school days be for
gotten.
With Sunday came Chips most graf
flying experience, perhaps, for her ar
rival was now known by the entire vii
lage and the fact that she was an
heiress as well. Her fortune (also
kaown) was considered almost fabu-
lous according to Grcenvale standards,
and when Chip with Angie entered the
church porch, it was crowded with
people waiting to receive them. Chip,
Of course, now well clad and well
poised, was once more the cynosure of

OF whom she knew by sight only, wait

her in the porch. The parson hurried
down the aisle to add his smile and

most gratifying reception.
And here and now, let no carping
critic say IL was all due to that bank
account, but rather country towns
expression of respect and good will to-
ward one whom they felt deserved it.
That it all pleased Angie, goes with
out saying. That Chip well deserved
this vindication, no one will question /;

parted, no one, not even Miss Phin-

Only one thread of regret wove it.
self into Chips feelings as she rode
away with Uncle Joe, whose horses
were now decked properly for this inn
portant event. She had received a
most cordial reception on all sides
almost triumph of good will. Her
gifts had brought an oft-repeated
chorus of thanks and a few tears. On
all sides and among all she had been
welcome. even receiving call and
words of praise from Parson Jones.

the old-time fondness remained, how
ever. She could not put that away.
She had tried and tried earnestly, yet
the wildwood illusion still fingered.
She had meant, also to put him and
herself quite apart-so tar, and in such
a way that she would never be found
by him. That had failed, however; he
knew where she was. He had said
that he was coming here. Most likely
he would expect to renew the old ten
der relations but in that he would be
disappointed. She was sure she would
be glad to see him for old times sake,
however. She would be gracious and
dignified, as Aunt Abby was. She
wanted to hear all about the woods
and Old Cy again, but caresses must
be forbidden. More than that, every
time she recalled how freely she had
permitted them once, she blushed and
felt that 1t would be an effort to look
him in the face again.
But she was anxious to see how he
would appear now: whether the same
boy, with frank, open face, or com
handing. self-possessed man.
And so each pleasant afternoon she
strolled up this byway road. When
the ancient carryall was sighted, she
hid and watched until passed
But Captain Mix its driver, also had
observing eyes. He knew her now as
far as he could see her, as every one
in the village did, and he soon noticed
her unusual conduct. He also watched
along the wayside where she left it,
and slyly observed her peeping out
from some thicket. Just why this odd
proceeding happened time and again,
he could not guess, and not until a
strange young man alighted from the
train one day and asked to be left at
the home of Mrs. Abby Bemis, did it
dawn on him.
Then he laughed. Friend O Aunt

from the woods. He must come in the
old carryall about the only vehicle
ever journeying along the road,-and
now, like brownie OF the forest, she
watched until she spied it afar and
then hid in the bushes and peeped out
until it passed each day.
A curious and somewhat complex
feeling toward this young man had
also come to her. At first, like q child,
she had loved him unasked. She had
known no different. He had seemed
like young god to her, and to cling
to him was supreme happiness. Then
had come an awakening, conscious
ness that this freedom was not right
and must be checked. Following that
also-a bitter lesson-it had come to
her that she was a kind of outcast, a
child of shame, as IL were, whose orr
gin was despicable, and who was de-
pendent upon the charity of others.
This awakening, this new conscious
ness, was like a black chasm in front
of her, horror and shame combined,
and true to her nature, she fed from ii
like one pursued.
But two years had changed her
views of humanity. She had learned
that money and social position did not
always win friends and respect. That
birth and ancestry were of less con
'sideration than pure mind and hon.
est intentions, and that fine raiment
sometimes covered a base heart and
vile nature.
Toward the boyish lover, also, her
feelings had been altered. A little OF
