Nat Time In a Mile.

A Washington horseman tells of an overanxfous owner and a particularly conscientious rider at a recent meet at PimIico. The owner had issued full or ders as to the way horse was to be ridden in a certain race. The jockey was a dimfnutive darky. The original orders were supplemented by proyi- sions for all manner of emergencies, all of which somewhat bewiIdered the jockey.
 See heah, boss. he finally said, 'tdis heah race is only one mile. I can't do all them things you tells in jest one mile''-Exchange.

The MESSAGE Of the Rose.

Tapped deep in the leather-bound
luxury of an ample lounge.chair,
walled apart from the world by the
venerable solitude of the library OF
London's most exclusive club, Mr..
Alan Law sprawled largely on the
nape of his neck) and, squirting dis
contentedly down his nose, admitted
that he was exhaustively bored.
Now the chair filled so gracelessly
stood by an open window, some twen-
ty feet below which lay stable
walled garden, an old English garden
in full flower. And through the win
dow, now and then, half-hearted
breeze waited gusts of warm air,
sauve and enervating with the heavy
fragrance Of English roses.
Mr.. Law drank deep Of It. and In
spite Of his spiritual unrest. sighed
slightly and shut his eyes.
An unspoken word troubled the
depth of his consciousness, so that
old memories stirred and struggled to
its surface. The word was Rose"
and for the time seemed to be the
name neither of a woman nor Of q
flower, but oddly Of both, as though
the two things were one. His mental
vision, bridging the gap of q year, con-
jured up the vision of a 1.-THE, sweet

Riviera against the burning Mediter'

Mr.. Law was DULY conscious that
he ought to be sorry about something.
But he was really very drowsy indeed;
and so, drinking deep of wine-scent
of roses, he fell gently asleep.
The clock was striking four when
he awoke; and before closing his
eyes he had noticed that its hands
indicated ten minutes to four. So he
could not have slept very long.

seemed to be even more strong and
cloying sweet than ever.
