Diplomacy In Small Things.

Little Eloise Cave, aged seven years
was visiting her grandmother in Madi'
son, Va, and was sent TO carry q
saucer OF ice cream to a neighbor. BY
the exercise OF infinite care she con
veyed her burden safely to the house
and gave 1t into the hands Of the lady
Tor whom 1t was intended. The lady,
however. was less caseful than Eloise
had been. and dropped the saucer and
broke IT,
You needn't mind about that" said
the little diplomt, without an instant's s
hesitation. II don't think grandma
has cup to match the saucer. If she
has / will go right home and break 1t
myself. Unpopular Magazine.

CHAPTER XIII.
Bob Yancy Finds HImscIf.


Mr.. Yancy awoke from long
dreamless sleep; heavy-lidded, his
eyes slid open. For a moment he
struggled with the odds and ends or
memory, then he recalled the fight at
the tavern, the sudden murderous at
tack, the fierce blows Slosson had
dealt him, the knife thrust which had
ended the struggle. Therefore, the
bandages that now swathed his head
and shoulders; therefore, the need
that he should be up and doing-for
where was Hannibal?
Suddenly a shadow fell obliquely
across the foot of his narrow bed,
and Cavendish, bending his long body
somewhat, thrust his head in at the
opening. He found himself looking
into a pair OF eyes that for the first
time In many a long day held the
light OF consciousness.
How are you. stranger?" he de-
manded, In a soft drawl.
where am II" The words were
a whisper on Yancy's bearded lips.
We'll, SIR, you are in the Tennes-
see river TO- certain. Polly! you Jest
step here"
But Polly had heard Cavendish
speak, and the murmur OF Yancy's

HIS MIND UP IN THE CLOUDS
Professor Imagined Appeal Was From
FIdo, and the Situation Became
Embarrassing.

A great lover OF animals, Professor
Dryasdust was much given to having
his pet dog sitting beside him at meal
times eating tidbits from his own lit
tle plate.
The other evening he was at dinner
party, and his partner was a very
great lady, who was proud OF her
title.
But the professor paid absolutely no
attention to her. His mind had
switched off on to some abstruse point
anu he was lost to the world over the
problem.
The duchess did not approve Of this,
and presently. to attract his attention,
she pulled him gently by the sleeve.
Then the professor woke up. Grab
bing a half-pcked chicken bone from
his plate he thrust II under her
startled nose.
Don't bother just now, Fido!" he
said curtly. Here, take this and so
md eat 1t on the mat, like a good dog
giel"

MY grandfather said he never
knowed a man with the same aver
sion agin labor as his father had.
Folks put II down to laziness, but they
misjudged him, as come out later, yet
he never let on.
Then one day he got his hands on
a paper that had come acrost in a
lit on something in the paper. and he
started up and let out yell like he'd
been shot. BY gum, I'm the Earl or
LAMBETH he says, and took out to
the nearest tavern and got b'ilin' full.
Afterward he showed 'em the paper
and they seen with their own eyes
where Richard Keppel Cavendish.
Earl OF Lambeth, had died in London.
My great grandfather told 'em that
was his uncle; that when he left
home there was several cousins-but
they'd up and died. so the title come
to him. He never done a lick OF work
after that.
I'm an orphan man OF title now
and it's been my dream to take Polly
and the children and go back TO Eng.
land and see the king about my title.
Don't you reckon he's got the notion
the Cavendishes has petered out?"
Mr.. Yancy considered this likely.
The furious shrieking Of a steam.
packets whistle broke in upon them.
ITS another OF them hawgs, want.

and fed to the steering oar.

Tom-that's on your mind this morn
ing, il it?" Murrell was saying.
Make II worth my while and I'll
take her off your hands," and Muir
rell laughed.
Tom favored him with a sullen
stare.
There was a brief silence, during
which Murrell studied his friends
face. When he spoke, 1t was to give
the conversation a new direction.
Did she bring the boy here last
night? / saw you drive of with him
In the carriage"
Yes. she makes regular pet OF
the little ragamufiin."
rs the boy going TO stay at Belle
Plain?" inquired Murrell.
THAT notion hasn't struck her yet,
for | heard her say at breakfast that
she'd take him TO Raleigh this after
noon"
That's the boy l travelled all the
way to North Carolina to get for
Fentress."

Quintard lands; what do you know
about QBintard himself?" continued
Murrell.
He was rich planter; lived In
North Carolina. My father met him
when he was In congress and got him
to invest in land here. They had
some colonization scheme on foot
this was upward OF twenty years ago
but nothing came Of 1t. Quintard
lost interest"
And the land?"
"Oh, he held on to that"
"Quintard has been dead two years.
Tom, and back yonder In North Caro-
lima they told me he left nothing but
the home plantation. The boy lived
there up to the time of Quintard's
death, but what relation he was to
the old man no one knew. Ofhand,
Tom, I'd say that by getting hold OF
the boy Fentress expects to get hold
of the Quintard land"
That's likely" said Ware; then
struck by sudden idea, he added,
Are you going to take all the risks
and let him pocket the cash? II it's
the land he's after. the stakes big
enough TO divide"
He can have the whole thing and
welcome I'm playing for a bigger
stake" His friend stared at him in
astonishment. I'm licking a specula-

Have you heard what the niggers did
at Hayti?"
You let the niggers alone; don't
! you tamper with them," said Ware.
He possessed profound belief In
| Murrelrs capacity
Look here, what do you think |
have been working for-to steal
few niggers? That furnishes us with
money, but you can push the trade
too hard and too far. The planters
are uneasy. The Clans got to deal
counter blow or go out OF business.

made wide sweeping gesture with
his arm. IL am spotting the country
