In briery dell or thicket brown,
On mountain high in lowly vale,
Or where the thistle sheds it's down,
And sweet fern scents the passing gale,
There hop the birds from bush to tree;
Love fills their throats
Love swells their notes,
Their song is love and liberty.
No parent birds their love direct;
Each seeks his fair in plumy throng,
Caught by the luster of her neck,
Or kindred softness of her song;
They sing and bill from tree to tree;
Love fills their throats,
Love swells their notes.
Their song is love and liberty.
Some airy songster's feathered shape,

The ring doves glossy neck he take.
And the modest turtles plume
O! then we'd sing from bush to tree
Love fill our throats,
Love swell our notes,
Our song be love and liberty,

Continued From Yesterday

But fortune favors the persistent no
less than the brave. The profiigates
were still at the table, and there were
fresh bottles of wine. They were
laughing and talking. In all, not more
than fifteen minutes had elapsed
since Breitmann's departure. M. Fer
raud stationed him by the window
and kept a hand lightly upon his arm,
as one might place a finger on a pulse.
OF what were they talking? Ostend.
The ba~llet-dancers. The races in May.
The shooting at Monte Carlo. Gaming
tables, empty purses. And again ballet
dancers.
ITO divide two millions!" cried one.
THAT will clear my debts, with a

francs! Princely!"
And her the voice of the master

there ever such a dupe? And not to
laugh in his face is penance for my
sins. A Dutchman. a bullet-headed
clod from Bavaria, the lane of sausage.

farce, comedy, vaudeville! But, there
was always thai hope: If he found the
money he would divide it. So, kowtow'

Braitmann s%huddered. M. Ferraud,
feeling that shudder under his hand,
relaxed his shoulders. He had won!
AN empire! VIII you believe it?'
Il suggest the eagle rampant on a
sausage!"
NO, no; the lily on the b%eer-pot!'
The scene went on. The butt of 1t
heard Jest and ridicule. They were
pillorying him with the light and
matchless cruelty of wits. And he,
poor fool, had believed them to be his
dupes, whereas he was theirs! Gently
he disengaged himself from M. Fer
raud's grasp.
What are o going to ~ Wits

Breitmann walked noiselessly round
to the entrance, and M. Ferraud lost
sight of him for a few moments,
Picard was on his feet, mimicking his
dupe by assuming a Napoleonic pose,
The door opened and Breitmann stood
quietly on the threshold. A hush fell
on the jewellers. There was something
kingly in the contempt with WHICH
Breitmann swept the startled faces. He
stepped up to the table, took up a full
of wine and threw 1t into Picard's
face.
"Only one of us shall leave Corsica"
said the dupe.
Certainly it will not be your ma
jesty,' replied Picard, wiping his face
with a serviette. His majesty will
waive his rights to meet me. Tomor-
row morning l shall have the pleasure
Of writing fms to this Napoleonic
phase. You fool. you shall die for
that"
THAT" returned Breitmann, still UNI
ruf1ed as he went to the door, remains
to be seen. Gentlemen, l regret to say
that your monetary difficulties must
continue unchanged"
"Oh. for fifty years ago!" murmured
the little sc~ene-shifter from the dark
of his shelter.

Your question ia not quite clear. Do
you mean a wholesale market or q

can sell your farm produce? There is
a street market in Paterson where
the farmers from Passaic and nearby

a reader Of this column can give you

TIL HE ~housekeeper who does not
feel herself overworked and over
burdened is the exception rather

dency to grumbie a little over the la

tired to death of the work which can

But how about the h~ousekeeper Of

time did not have SO many opportuni-

the fact remains. whatever the explana-

I daresay our grcat-great-grand-
mothers yearned for the simple life,
too, although they may not have known
enough TO call 1t that. But consider a
moment some of the complications
which they had to take as a matter of
course.
In the first place, there was no such
thing as a cool stove in Colonial days.
There are still parts of the country
where modern conveniences are moi to

With shaking fingers she ripped h

knelt, and laid her lips upon his hand.
There was now only a dim white 'speck
on the horizon, and with that strange
sea-magic the hull suddenly dipped
down, and naught but a trail of smoke
remained. Then this, too, vanished.
Breitmann withdrew his hand, but he

standby for baking Of all kinds, says
the writer in the Philadelphia Press.
Who now knows a Dutch oven? We
see their remains or their traces In
some old-fashioned houses in the coun-
try or in country towns. I wonder II
there is one of those old ovens left
intact. I recollect one I saw as a
child and looked at with ineerest-a
queer construction at the side Of tho
house, it's foundations Of brick. its
upper part OF mortar. II had been
long but of use. Those who knew the
subject told me that this special oven
was comparatively small and that
often the wen would be as large as a
good-sized closet. SO far as floor space
always low-ceiled.
In this oven a fire was kept burning
for twelve hours before the baking
was to be done. BY the n OF this
time the over was heated through, the
fire was cleared out and into the heat
ed chamber were introduced pots and
pans containing the food to be cooked
tho beans in the earthen pot, the
loaves OF bread and raised cake-elec-
ton cake, bread cake-and then the
oven was closed until these were
cooked. After they were lone the pies
went in-pies by the dozen. often. for
1t was too serious a business to heat
the oven unless there was to be a big
enough baking TO make the effort worth
while. The stored heat was sufficient
to bake the pies after the other baking
had been concluded.
The housekeeper who laments her
self because she must burn coal instead
of being able to use a gas stow might
learn a lesson In contentment by dwell
Ing upon the fact that her g~reat-great-
grandmother did all her cooking with
wood. The blaze over which the kettle
boiled and by which the spit turned
was fed by logs, which did not have
the staying or heating powers Of coal.
All the water used for washing clothes
