short distance till they reached the
root of tree that had been felled long
before. Here they paused and listened.
Suddenly they heard what sounded
like a musket brought from the shout
der down to the hollow of a hand. and
a voice:
"Who comes thar?"
Corporal of the guard. with relief"
Advance. corporal. and give the
countersign."
Then there was some muttering and
footsteps tramping away.
Mark peeped between the roots of
the stump toward the point from which
the sounds had come He saw. not a
hundred feet away. a man sitting on
log with his musket resting against
his shoulder. the butt on the ground.
He was looking listlessly up at the
sky Presently he took clay pipe out
of his pocket which he filled. and
touching match lighted it,
Hes the river picket" said Mark to
himself
The sentinel sat smoking while Mark
meditated His first thought was, Why
did | bring this boy? The situation
was perilous enough without an en-
cumbrance. The guard was facing the
space over which they would have to
pass to escape; there might be Il slight
chance for life to make Il dash were
he alone, but with the boy it was not
to be thought of. and Mark was I'M
willing to leave him. He looked back
with view to retracing the route over
which he had come. He was Mortified
to see a sentinel pacing a hundred
yards above. He had been placed there
by the relief.
The only hope was to wait for the
man nearest him to relax his watchful
ness, and attempt to pass him. The
sentinel up the river was not to be
feared except by going back. for from
the nature of the ground the fugitives
would be hidden from him If they
should go forward.
Mark resolved to wait and watch.
The minutes seemed hours. the hours
days. The soldier still sat OH the log,
though now and then he would get up,
and leaving his muSket leaning on 1t
saunter back and forth on his beat.
He we'll knew there was no enemy to
fear; his duty was little more than n
form.
He began to hum Il few strains of
1.-The Suwanee River"
Poor devil" said Mark to himself,
"he, too, is thinking Of home. What
cursed thing war is! If ever l get out
of this I'll do no more such duty. Give
me an enemy face to face, bullets be-
fore me and no gibbet behind me-"

WORLDS RECORD GRADE cow

One of the most interesting attrac-
lions that dairy farmers will find
at the Wisconsin State Fair this year,
will be Bessie, the worlds record
grade COW, owned by r. w. Rowlands
hibited at the State Fair, but will
not be in competition with other
COWS in the dairy division of the
cattle show. She will be placed on
exhibition by her owner and the rec
ord made by her in the Wisconsin
COW competition will show in detail
the record, by months, for milk and
feed.
Bessie established the worlds rec
ord held by any grade COW of any
breed in last years exhibition, for
which 100000 in prizes was divided
among herself and her competitors.
Figured on a butter basis Bessie
made a net profit for her owner of
$4,000. During the year she gave
900 pounds of milk, which Is
equal to approximately 5000 quarts
This retailed in the city of Milwaukee
for IL cents quart, the net income
from her product being 1920.
Bessie is four and One-half years
old and at the present time is contin-
uing her wonderful record. Mr.. Row.

ord COW at the State Fair, is comply

Climbing . Cocoanut Tree.

Cocoanuts when ripe fall to tho
ground and when necessary are pluck
ed by men VINO climb up. 1t sometimes
makes ones blood run cold to see
them run up the trees like monkeys
Two ways are practiced for mounting
the trunk. In the case Of a small tree
or at an odd moment the man walks
up the trunk. keeping his feet fiat
against it and throwing his weight
back from it as much rs possible. re-
tanning his position at che same time
by the tension of his arms. The other
and safer plan is 10 pass loop of cord
around the feet. which are thus kept
close together. and grasp the trunk OF
the tree. the arms meanwhile assisting
the climber. who moves upward In
series of jumps.
