nodded in the direction of Miss Paw
ling's desk.
Billy caught a glimpse of a red en-
velope on the girls blotter and sprang
for 1t, but the bookkeeper intercepted
him.
Its against the law to interfere
with the United States mall" he re-
minded. you can't have a letter adj
dressed to Miss Pawling."
ITS not a letter.! It's an outrage"
shouted Billy as he struggled to reach
the desk. Before he could free him
self Ida entered, and, with a curious
glance at the little knot of struggling
men, she moved quietly to her desk.
She had seen the gaudy envelope in
Billy's hand, and when she found one
like it on her desk she guessed the
cause of the confusion. The men had
stopped wrestling with Billy, and now
the glances of the entire office were
upon her.
With a woman's sixth sense she
could feel their interest, and with
slow movement she reached for the
glaring envelope, glanced at the bold,
black type, tore 1t across without OPEN
ing 1t and raised the lid of her desk.
AS the flaming fragments fell into
the basket the spell was broken. The
clerks moved to their desks and re-
sumed their work. The incident was
forgotten by all save Billy, who de-
termined to locate the man who had
sent the letters or planned the rude
jest and to give him the t%hrashing Of
his life. For himself he did not mind,
but 1t was both unmanly and unjust
to subject the girl to such an indignity.
All day long he brooded over the
matter, and when the Office closed he
was as far from a solution of the
problem as ever, so he determined to
ask Ida's assistance.
He fingered for a moment after she
left, that the others might not suspect
his plan; then he slipped out, and, by
taking a short cut through the alley,
he managed to emerge on the next
street. breathless, but successful, for
Ida had just turned the corner half a
block beyond.
She was startled to find him waiting
for her.
"Why, you were IN the Office when l
left" she cried wonderingly. "Have
you some magic carpet that transports

Rin Oxsfara.

Pliny mentions that, according to the
historians of Alexander's expedition,
oysters a foot in diameter were found
In the Indian seas. And Sir James
Tenant was Unexpectedly enabled to
corroborate the correctness of this
statement, for near Trincomali enor-
nous specimens of edible oysters were
brought before him. One of these was
found to measure more than eleven
inches In length by half as many in
width.
But this extraordinary measurement
is beaten by the oysters Of Port Lin
coin, South Australia, which are the
largest edible ones in the world. They
are as large as a dinner plate and of
much the same shape. They are some
times more than a foot across the
shell, and the oyster fits its habitation
so well that 1t does not leave much If
any margin.
1t is no uncommon experience in
that quarter for a person who is hun
CRY to have one oyster, fried in butter
or in eggs and breadcrumbs, set be-
fore him. The delicacy Of flavor of
the Port Lincoln mammoth Is famous,
even In that land of luxuries, and one
is ample even for a hearty appetite.

To Bring Back a Gard.

After you have shuffled the pack and
placed it upon the table you let any
person draw forth the lowest card, of
which there should be two alike at the
bottom of the pack. Tear it in small
pieces and throw them out of the win
dow. You then assure the company
that the pieces just thrown out will
join themselves together and return
as a whole to the pack. You raise the
window and call, "Come, come, Gomez
Then approach the table, assuring your
spectators that the mutilated card has
returned complete to its old place in
the pack, and let them satisfy them
selves that such is the fact.

His Lesson
In LOJe.
BY LULV
Copyrighted. 1908. by Associated
Literary Press.

Had they only known it two of them
For months Billy Gillen had watched
the shapely brown head bent yer the
typewriter desk without realizing that
mis- appreciation of brown hair with
glints of gold was merely an indica-
ton of a deeper feeling.
For as many moons Ida Pawling
had assured herself that without the
kindly aid of "that nice Mr.. Glllen"
office life would be impossible, and she
had not recognized In this feeling any
thing but an appreciation Of his court
esy.
Even the fact that Billy took to 60
ing to church-her church-regularly,
sitting where he could catch the same
glimpse of brown hair that was his to
enjoy in the Office, did not open his
eyes, and this story might have ended
as It had begun-in polite nothings-
had 1t not been for those letters.
There were two of them, and the
Office boy, with an appreciation of the
fitness of things, propped them up on
the desks of their recipients. Here
they were being admired by the early
birds Of the office staff when Billy
came In with his brisk "Good morn
ing"
His smile only broadened when he
saw upon his desk the red envelope
with the huge black legend:
Are you going to be married?
Own your own home.
"Too bad that some n wasted a
two cent stamp to give me that adj
vice. he cried. 81 wonder what put

rest laughed, for they were not blind,

Knocked Out the Poetry.

James Russell Lowell was dreamily
strolling along toward his home in
Cambridge one unusually beautiful
night. Slowly, with serene, queenly
majesty, a full moo was ascending
her "azure throne" pouring her lavish
light over all things and softening into
semblances of beauty even the ugly
outlines of the conventional domestic
architecture around about. Duly FLU
minated by the loneliness Of the spec
tacle, the poet as be passed by the
house of the estimable brother man
who supplied meat to him regularly
for a slight consideration of profit no
ticed that valuable citizen leaning on
his fence and gazing up In a kind of
rapt way.
It pleased Lowell to think that the
butchers immortal soul was bathing
itself in the food Of semispiritual
moonlight, and, pausing, he remarked,
"What a beautiful night it is, neigh
borr'
eyes, Mr.. Lowell. 1 was just a-think-
in what a bully night for a slaughter
In this would bel'
"Of course, of coursep gasped the
poet, beating a hasty retreat.

About the Glove.

Children, how ~r1any~gf yeu know
where the Glove comes from? 1t is the
flower bud of an evergreen tree. When
the flowers are In full bloom they are
a brilliant red. The little ball at the
top of the Glove is formed of the curled
up petals. At first the buds are a pale
green; then they become red. AS soon
as they become this color they are
ready for picking and drying. The
trees from which cloves are obtained
are natives of the Moluccas, or Spice
islands. The trade in cloves once
formed the basis of great fortunes in
more than one nation. About the close
Of the eighteenth century the Glove
tree was transplanted in other coun-
tries than the Spice islands, and now
a great part of the commerce in cloves
is carried on in Zanzibar. The word
Glove comes from the French word
clou, which means a nail. Doubtless
the round, hard head caused its name,
as it somewhat resembles a small nail.

NAME OF THE MONTH.
A jolly Game That Is Sure to Induce
Much Laughter.

Much Laughter.
Line up, every boy and girl of you,
on n side of the room, and each
take the name of a month in order,
from January to December.
If there are not twelve of you, then
take the months names as far as they
will go, and when your leader stands
up in front Of you and points her fin
ger at a child and says, Happy New
Year, l, 2, 3, 4, 8, G., Z, 8, 0, TO-" the
boy or girl must answer, March,
march, march!" IF that is her nance
before the ten is said.
1t Is like bird, beast or fish"-isn't
it?-only different for this reason, you
must not laugh. That is where the
fun comes in, because you know you
will laugh when you try hard not to,
just as SURF as you livei
Try 1t and see, and, remember, if
you smile or forget to say the name
of your month three times you must
face the line and point your finger at
some other month and make her
laugh.

The Sundew

A striking illustration of the adapta-
ton Of plants to their surroundings is
shown In the sundew. This plant
lourishes in DOGGY places; but, being
ieshy in nature, 1t needs nitrogen, sui
phur and other means of s%ustenance
that the Doggy soil cannot supply, for
these substances have been dissolved
out Of 1t. Here nature steps in and
gives the needed elements to the plant
by feeding 1t with insects whose bod
les contain those elements. 1t has
glands that secrete a viscid fluid that
glitters like dewdrops, and this fluid
attracts and holds the insects. After
an insect is caught the glands curve
inward, thus preventing 1t from escap-
ing, and the leaf digests it.

done by putting more or less water in

their o~ctaves, including the sharps and
fats, may be thus reproduced.
The instrument is played by means
of two sticks-drumsticks are best
with which the bottles are struck.
Two parts of an air may easily be
played, and there may be two perform
ers, one playing on each side.
A similar arrangement may be made
with glass tumblers, as is well known,
but this bottle device is more unique
and striking. The notes are soft and
melodious and pleasant to listen to-

Billy sought the minister a. couple of
weeks later to arrange for the quiet
wedding, and when the details had
been settled the kindly old man laid
a OBTAINING hand on Billy's shoulder.
