three months. What a time they
had together, one with her paint
brush and easel, the other with PEN
Gil and type writer.
The morning the friend was to take
the boat for Pensacola, there to
board the train for the north, Martha
said, eve will go out on Old Choc-
tawhatchee and see the sun rise"
They rowed out in the skiff and leav-
ing the bayou went out on the bay
and watched the sun come up out of
the water.
|. A glorious sight to behold, but
Martha's eyes were dim with tears
and the friends lip quivered. The
parting was hard to bear but each
tried to be brave. When the friend
said "good-by" she exclaimed, "I feel
as though was going back to 1--we
in box! How will mis- these grand
old trees, the smell of the pines and
all this wonderful nature life"
| She never became reconciled to the
narrow city life and the longing for
a home of her own in Florida grsw
so important that she decided to try
pioneering and accordingly she wrote
asking Martha to see what could be
done about buying home near Mar
tina.
A beautiful location was selected
and soon the friend with her brother
and sister came to the bayou and built
their house and a studio where the
artist follows her beloved profession
and is happy in the largest and best
way for she loves and understands
nature in all her various moods, and
nature is the voice of God.
Martha has told me Of her various
friends on the bayou, all lured there
! by the beauty of scenery and per-
lection of the climate, and during my
visit to her she took me to the artists
house where we found her at home
among her eautiful works of art, a
CHEEKY little woman, very much in
love with Florida and very sure that
if each will do his or her part that
a living can be made and never a
word of complaint. She reminded me
of the English poetess, Mrs. Felkins,
when she said:
Though outwardly goony shrod,
The inner half of every cloud
| Is bright i-ld shining,
| / therefore turn my clouds about
And always wear them inside out
To show the lining"

Martha in due time enlarged her
house and added a small conserva-
tory, another dream come true. This
conservatory proved to be sour e
of delight and profit. Though Flor
ida never has any long continued
cold weather, the thermometer
sometimes registers freezing and
some nights an oil stove was needed,
but never during the day.
Martha found the finest of ferns
in the swamps and transplanted them
to the conservatory and visitors, tour
lists from the north, and some of the
visitors long time residents of Flor
lea, seeing these ferns exclaimed over
their beauty and sale was easily
made.
A water garden was another OF
Martha's dreams realized. The
swamps are full of the delicate beau
ties. The arums grow in profusion,
The golden club, the crinum, the bulbs
of which sell by weight in all green
houses grow and bloom in these
swamps. The much discussed pitcher
plants and many other varieties were
to be had and the only price to be
paid was work.
Wading through the swamp might
not be delightful but the vision to be
rallied Martha never wavered. The
beach in front of the house was being
washed away by the waves and sen
wall was built of logs, inside of this
sea wall these treasures of swamp
and stream were transplanted and adj
dsd to the charm and beauty of the
home.
1t was amusing to Martha to hear
the questions of visitors, "How do you
manage to live so far away from a
doctor?"
Martha's answer was, II do not
need doctor"
s.But supposing you should need
one ?n
IF one is careful of their diet, and
correct in their habits doctor is
not needed, a surgeon might be useful
in case of a broken bone. With az
easy conscience and an active liver a
physician is a useless commodity"
There are M. DIS in plenty near
enough to reach the sick in the bayor
country now.)
But you are so far away from q

PRETTY ROUGH SPORT.
The Game of "the Bounding Brothers

The Game of "the Bounding Brothers of the Bosporus."
 Many extraordinary forms of amuse- ment have been devised by army off, cers from the earliest times down to the present day, but none perhaps have more startling characteristics than the following new and original game, which Sir Robert Baden-Powel describes in Memories of India:"
 It was introduced into the mess by brother of our colonel. who came to stay with him. We believed him to be quiet, harmless planter from Behar, and so he seemed throughout the even ing, both during and after dinner, when he remained watching us play ing the fool in various ways for our own amusement. But evidently our ways did not strike him as original, and he therefore invited us to play the great game of the bounding broth CTS of the Bosporus, and when he had once shown us we joined most heart lily in the sport.
 The game had few rules, but cer- tain amount of etiquette. The ap paratus consisted of all the furniture, which was piled in a heap near the center of the room, and writing ta- ble, which was placed a couple of yards from it. You were expected then to clap your hands three times that was the etiquette of the game then run at the table and turn heels over head on it into the pile of fur niture, shouting as you did so, "I am a bounding brother of the Bosporusy That was all. 1t was quite simple but how it hurt when you landed on the upturned legs of a chair or the Hide of a table!

An Old Man's Realized Day Dream and

 They had started in the most primi- tive way, the man and his wife, back in the little log house, but they were dreaming of the day when they would own a farm of their own and not have to work so hard. After time their hard toll was rewarded, and they own ed a farm. Then it seemed desirable to add to this tract, and they worked a little harder. A new house seemed 6 necessary accompaniment to the large farm, so the work could not stop.
 A son came to the age when he must be educated and have his chance in life, and they toiled on. All the time the old man dreamed of the days ahead when he could stop work and take life easy. Somehow the days did not come, or he did not recognize them when they came, for he kept on working un- til he had grown old and worn. Then his health failed, and he had to stop work.
 The son for whom they had given precious years out of their lives now showed his gratitude by his gentle, un- failing love and care. It seemed to others that the goal had been reached that the old man could now enjoy life, surrounded as he was by every com fort and attention. But he was quiet and sad, sitting with head bowed on his toll worn hands.
 A neighbor, stopping in for little visit, asked, "How are you getting along, grandpa?' Then the secret of all his sadness burst forth as he an. swered earnestly, "Oh, if I could only get out and work!
