At 1855 Smithers Snapped His Watch
and Mentally Writhed.

AS he stood at the door of the APP
pointed lunching place, tapping his
foot impatiently, he wondered if Burt
had changed. He could see the old
time Burt as plainly as if he were
then in front of him. He remembered
the old, chatting smile and bantering
tone which hid very Intellectually a
heart full Of genuine friendship.
Had Burt changed? Many of the
men he once liked so we'll, and whom
he had afterward rushed gladly to
meet, had been sore disappointments.
They had changed so-or, rather, per-
haps it was that they had not changed
They were the same they had once
been, and Smathers had grown. Once
their thoughts and feelings-even
their whole lives, when they lived
near each other-had had 'concentric
orbits with his own, touching at every
essential point. and congeniality was
inevitable. But things had interviewed
to widen breach that separation had
started until, when they met later in
life, they had nothing in common but
foggy memories.
At 1855 Smathers snapped Z his
watch and mentally writhed. There
was no use jim such dilly-dallying. An
appointment was an appointment,
wasn't it? Then why in the name of
sense didn't Burt come, or at least
.send some word to account for him

Trad Biglolv's Aerial Finish.

! Twas, the third time within five

man, Trad Biglow, knew that he was
impatient for the hired man to bring
the wagon to the veranda. On the
veranda was Irads old trunk and UNI

exhausted in one home 1T was not re-
newed in any other. Hence his dis

The bounty on crows is ten cents a
head. All right III send UP dozen
kites, hundred feet apart, connected
with lines, each line containing many
hooks, each hook baited." And he
sighed in relief and paused for breath
as Edgar slowly sank back in his
chair, seemingly having lost his impa-

Edgar called for the hired man to
return the horse, while to his kinsman

LESSON NO. 8
JUGGLING FOR CATFISH.

Hilarity is the birthnlark OF this
sport A flock of hungry catfish can
give a man or boy the time of his
life, and the procedure is simple. You
first carefully select a dozen sleek
whisky jugs from behind the old
mans bedroom window and tie six
foot section of window cord to the
handle of each. To the free end Of
the cord large wicked looking hook
is securely fixed and then, after firm
ly corking the jugs, you are ready for
business
and you row the entire aggregation
about nine miles up Tadpole creek,
till you smell the flowery zephyrs that
mark the location of the slaughter
house. This is where the catfish live
and have their being. BY the time you
reach their abode the inside of your
hands will look like a big red Mis-
souri, apple and feel like prairie
fire. !,
The hooks are then baited and you
wipe the extra bait off onto your
pants. The jugs are then planted by
lifting them steadily above the head
and ,feaving them several yards from
the boat. This wakes the catfish UP
and makes them bat their eyes and
uiltangle their whiskers from the sea
weed on the creek ibottoni.
Snatching up one oar and making a
dive half overheard for the. other Won
start off again after the jug. At this
