ham streets he could see that the
street ended at the platform near the
foot of the hill and essayed TO turn
the machine but the roadway was icy
and the machine began TO slide back
ward down the hill. And not only that,
for it continued to slide until 1t reach
ed the sidewalk where the walk goes
across the hill. The driver tried to

enlist the services of w. W Hunt with
a pair of horses to get him out of his

uncomfortable. If she d only talk backl
But she wouldn't.
At 6 o'clock the Lady of the House,
sitting on the piazza in her cool white
gown with the Darling Child in her lap,
saw a familiar figure coming down the
street, and at his heels-what-cou it
BET Yes--Mike
The Man of the House looked a trifle
sheepish as he came up the walk, and
Mike, in transport of dog-joy, leaped
upon the Lady and the Darling Child
together. He knew some explanation
was necessary. If she would only ask a
question or two, it would help fel-
low out!
And she did. "Why, Dick, how did
you happen to get poor Mike backi
Couldn t you find a bulldogi Wash t
there any other dog in the poundi"
"Plenty of 'em, plenty of 'em," re-
sponded the Man. "Good dogs, too-a
mighty fine little bulldog, and an Eng
lish setter, and there was Collie, too
la beauty"
"Then why"
"Well, hang it ALT" said the Man
of the House. "There was that good.
for nothing Mike. And he looked at me
so with those big brown eyes Of his that
l swear l couldn't help myself. Now,
that s all there is to it. The incident is
closed"
He stalked into the house, and the
Lady stopped to examine the handsome
new collar with its shining tag. And
she smiled to herself in q wise little
way. Evidently there was something
potently appealing in Mike $ soft brown
eyes, after all!
At midnight a delighted barking and
yelping arose in the back yard. The
Man of the House hurriedly dressed him
self and went out to investigate.
When he came back he was smiling
broadly. els there anything in the

smoking habit. Since Mr.. Hale an

A letter received today was from a
broker Of Louisville, Ky. The man,
although a member of local stock
exchange and having connections with
a New York exchange, admits that he
is victim Of the cigarette habit, and
that he has tried numerous so-called
cures without success. Another letter
was from resident Of British Colum-
bia, and another from q farmer Of
Georgia. Mr.. Hale answers all letters
and gives the prescription which has
been found effieacious at the school.
"Our physician has discovered" said
the superintendent, "that in most cases
