wrong. Hardee's Tactics say that when you meet aBother-when you are marching by the right hank-when the head of the column"
 Edith smiled as he paused. He thought he could sail boat by the same tactics that drilled regiment He subsided in some confusion, and the young man and the accident were not again mentioned. There were scores of young men sailing and row ing on the river daily, and why should ;his one prove to be the son of their widowed neighbor. On reaching home the major went out and looked at those withered green apples that had fallen on his side of the line and generously decided not to claim them. and Miss Edith sought book and her hammock and wondered if the young nan was looking at her all the time she vas looking at the opposite bank put of consideration for his feelings. She finally concluded that such was probahsy the cSse, and was surprised = hnd herself bit pleased.
 On the succeeding day the major and a party of frienSs sailed up the liver for a little outing, Shile Miss Edith was driven to the village Sod vent into the city to do some shop ping. She had frequently made such trips alone. The father had no ob- iections to urge. as 1t cultivated spir- 1t of seff-reliance. but he had several times said to her:
 If you ever get Into any trouble in he city just say that you are the laughter of Maj. Hyde. late of The Seventeenth. That will be suA- :;ent"
 There was trouble ahead for the young lady, but 1t did not come until afternoon. She had made some pur- chases at two or three stores. had her lunch. asd was just leaving another store after looking over some goods. when a hand was laid on her arm and 2 quiet voice said:
 Beg pardon. young lady, but you will have to come with me"
 It was a man. In fact. 1t was the store detective. as Miss Edith was soon informed He had been told by one Of the salesgirls that she had se- creted goods under her jacket She at first indignantly and then tearfully de nied the allegation. She at first hotly refused to follow him to the managers office. and then bethought her of her fathers admonition and drew herself up stifily and announced:
 Sir, I am the daughter of Maj Hyde, late Of the Seventeenth"
 The man replied that she might be the daughter of a general for all he cared. and just then two things hap pened. A policeman came through the store and stopped to say that he would take the girl to the station, and at the same moment the young man of the rowboat pushed his way into the crowd and stood beside her and said that he would accompany her. He was sure there was a mistake. but he also saw that the easiest way out. and the one to avoid notoriety. was to accbm- pany the officer. A cab was called and .<s1e station reached, and a search by the matron proved that the charge was without the slightest foundation. The priso1z --ss get at liberty, and many apoloS--s, and with a suit Of damages against the store if the major wanted to press it, and the young man called another cab and drove Miss Edith to the depot. She was in tears, and he did not disturb her. He simply went ahead and did things. It was only when she found herself on the train homeward bound with Hr. Harper be- side her that she rallied and looked him in the face and said:
 "You-you are the young man of the rowboat?"
 Just so. My name is Harper. son of Mrs. Nelson Harper of Iryington."
 Why. live there. I am Miss Hyde. daughter of siaj. Hyde"
 Two days later the major appear ed at the widows house and asked for Burt When he had shaken hands with the young man and rendered bis thanks he added:
 sir. was wrong in regard to that collision. I am something of a crank Also. something of en ass Please overlook t and come over after your green apples and let Edith thank you again. She cant speak too highly of your conduct in the affair in town the other day"
 There win be only one question be- tween the major and his son-in-law. viz: Should sailboat be maneuve-- ed according to Hardee's army tao ties. or shoule it go skipping along in any old way?
