irrespective Of class or color. He made
his living in spring and summer by
working the foyer and vegetable gar

the fall and winter months his prin-
cipal occupation was chopping wood.
After the noon meal the day before

After assuring himself OF the list
of articles Susan wanted, Starting
started for the store of William
Hines. where this old couple always
bought their table supplies. Entering
the store he found Mr.. Hines and his
clerks busily engaged in waiting on
customers. One of the clerks ap-

could do for him.

Judge and the lawyers. Captain Walker
spoke of what he had heard on the
street the day before. OF the ludicrous
experience of Startling and his wife
with the Roman candle. Some one
suggested that Startling be brought Into
court and called upon to relate the
story All acquiesced. and an officer
of the court was instructed to bring
him in.
On his way to the courthouse Star
ling expressed great surprise. for he
felt that he had not violated any law
for which he might be arrested, nor
could he recall any case in which he
might be summoned as a witness. He
was evidently considerably frightened.

would not acknowledge it, proceeded
to place the candle on candlestick in
the center of the table. Like tall
church spire, rising majestically above
the low buildings surrounding it, this
Roman candle lowered above the dishes

to load the table with smoking viands
Then the four seated themselves at the

and took his leave.
Tt was nearly o'clock when he
reached his cottage. Susan was still
busy in the kitchen. Starting entered
the front room, and after placing the
basket on the floor where he had found

ing log fire. In this front room Susan
had set the table, putting on her best
table cloth and her blue china plates.
cups and saucers. She passed in and
out of the room several times, seem

her husband. Startling watched her
closely, noticing that she occasionally
cast her eyes toward the basket The
evening meal having been cooked and
everything prepared for the reception
of her guests. Susan went over to in

ling, proud of his ability to provide so

her as she examined one by one the
packages. The first thing she came to
was the candle. She handled 1t care
fully and inspected 1t closely. She con-
cluded it was some costly gift of her
husbands, probably to serve as an or

candle, she arose and turning to her
husband said:
