Cape Of Good Hope.

In 1887 Bartholomew Diaz sailed far
enough south along the western coast
OF Africa not only to descry but to
double the Cape or Storms. as 1t was
then called. and as the coast was as
certaincd to run toward the northeast
the prospect Of success IN thc Gsr>--
tion Of India seemed now so clear that
the Portuguese monarch renamed the
cape "Cabo de Boa Esperanza." or

IN A MOOSE,
Miss Nina's Desperate Resolve
and the Way 1t Ended.
BY LAWRENCE ALFRED CLAY.

Copyright. 1909. by Associated Literary
Press.I
Things had gone wrong with at least
one of the guests of the Mountain
House. Miss Nina Hazlett had gone
up there with her maiden aunt as
chaperon, and they had scarcely got
their things unpacked when that maid
en- aunt began to lecture her on the
frivoiity Of flirting.
Miss Nina had not firted. She had
simply let her eyes dwell for a mo-
ment on a good looking young man.
Can't one sex look at the other sex
without being made to toe the mark
for so doing?
And then when the trunks had been
unpacked, but not all the dresses yet
hung up. the girl had gone walking by
herself In the hotel grounds. and upon
her return, bubbling over with enthu-
siasm, the maiden aunt had met her
with the statement that she had done
a highly improper thing and needn't
be surprised IL the other young ladies
cut her dead.
Improper for girl of nineteen to
walk In the hotel grounds at 3 o'clock
In the afternoon to view the fountain
and the wolf in a cave? Nonsense.

smile of the bandmaster, but made up

said that girls In her time kept their
eyes on their plates when eating. OF
course 1t had been a glorious sunset.
or course the sister would have said
so had she not been too busy with her
soup. OF course the young man knew
that the glorious sunset would have to
be paid for with other extras. but he

He slipped the package into his

Nella started as she recognized her
own letters, and hastily she glanced
over some Of them. She saw In a mo-
ment what Dick had already realized,
and her lips trembled as she recalled
the misery she had suffered since the
quarrel.
She loved Dick very dearly, even
well enough to offer forgiveness when
she had felt that he was In the wrong,
and to have him make no reply to the
kindly letter had hurt both heart and
pride.
Now she could see that Dick had
promptly concealed his error and that
all the suffering had been caused by
one small and very black youngster.
