1t was only two days ago that, in
running over his notebook, he came
upon that queer scrawl, Dough is
behind the picture" It perplexed
him for a few minutes, and he
scratched his head and gazed at /.
and wondered over it. The handwrit-
ing was pretty rocky. and when he
took that fact into account the whole
thing came back to him. He remem-
bered having put the $50 behind the
picture.
When he went home that evening
the first thing he did-when his wife
wasn't looking-was to lift up that
picture. The $50 wad fell with a
pleasant little thud to the floor. The
man walked down stairs and tossed
it to his wife.

always does when he wants TO attract at
tention He ran to the stable door and
back several times Father followed him
and there or The stable floor were nine
mice that he had killed Father pstted
him and he was very happy. We used 20
have a dog named Bruno Peter and Bruno
used TO have their meals together; ~ Bruno

Peter, If Peter got TO the plate first he
would wait for Bruno. Then they would
have their meals together Peter used 20
sit on the gate post and watch for father

jump down and run TO meet him We have
taught Peter TO jump through our arms

bined against Frederic and drove him not
only from Bohemia but from his own
hereditary dominion. Then Elizabeth's S
family was driven from the English throne
and the people cut OF the head of her
brother Charles, whom she loved only less
than she had loved Henry. Her later years
were spent in England. and when no other
empire was left to her people called her

After her death strange thing hap
pened, ore of those things we sometimes
ind in real life that are stranger than a
fairy tale. When the poor Queen of Hearts
was living in exile at the Hague a little
daughter came TO her whom she named
Sophia, and just about the same time a
little son came into the family of her
brother. Charles l of England Very diff
ferent seemed the prospects of these two
babies. but to-day the descendants of the
little Sophia are sitting on the throne of
Queen of Hearts. whose name was Vic

times great-grandson. For when the peo-
pie of England rose up second time
against the Stuart kings and drove the
last of them from the thone they went over

the son of Sophia, tc reign over them and
his family has reigned in England ever

LOST In A PASTURE.

Dear Little Men and Little Women: In
the days of my fathers childhood great
percentage Of the country in this part of
Kansas was left in great expanses of graz
ing land, land untravelled by man. except
on dim trails which were made by the
earliest settlers, and were then and now
much used. There are few. comparatively.
of these pastures left now. but near my
home one still remains. On this pasture
my mother and I were lost
We had driven to town with Dandy, the
horse hitched to the road wagon. and had
Just finished our trading when mother met
enc OF her most intimate friends We were
invited TO take tea, which We accepted. 1t
was in the middle of February and before
we fully realized the time IT was dusk
We dared not stay longer. for home was
fully six miles distant. and neither of us
cared to be out after dark Mamma de-
eided to take the old trail across the past
ure. because the distance home was much
less by it than by the main road
Just as darkness was settling left the
main road and started across the pasture at
a brisk trot. We felt sure of the road,
and things went smoothly for some time
Gradually the road became rougher in some
places, but still we believed ourselves 70 be
on the right trail. Dandy kept on at good
gait, with little urging. until he stopped
short. l sprans quickly to the ground to
find out the cause of the horses halt. /
found him to be standing at the edge OF
deep ditch. which ran across the pasture
and in which there was only one place
that could be crossed with buggy
When | informed mother of this she said
that she must have turned little too far
south for the crossing. We tried several
places. but always with the same success
II was cold. although there was no snow
on the ground and the sky was overcast
with clouds. depriving us of such little
light as the stars could afford. AT last
mother persuaded ME to stay with the
horse and buggy while she went in search
Of the road and crossing. So she told me
to halloo every few minutes SO that she
would not loose track of me. I'm not
ashamed to say that I felt creepy out there
in that big pasture, with the wolves howl
ing mournfully less than a quarter of a
mile away, and not the least idea as to our
bearings. At times mothers haloO in an
swer TO mine was so faint that l could
hardly hear IT.
Finally she returned to say that she had
found the way. I was thoroughly chilled
by this time, so l got out of the buggy, and
we, mamma and l, led the horse 70 the
trail Just as we reached the crosSn z
of the ditch the moon rose, Shimmerng
through the misty clouds. so we could see
by mammals watch 1t was / O'Clock. Daddy
thought that said were going TO
stay all night up rQwn, and was in bed
asleep when reached home.
