Dinner two hours late, was being

The talk of the diners was too desul-
tory, too evanescent to follow, but at
last they came to the subject of the
tramp nuisance, one that had of late
vexed the plantations for many miles
around. The planter seized the occa-
sion to direct his good-natured fire of
raillery at the mistress, accusing her
of encouraging the plague.

for the officer, himself a lover of mu-
sic, had been attracted by the exqui-
site whistling of the shiftless vaga-
bond. Still he did not care under the
present circumstances to renew the ac-
quaintance. So Dick waited, and be-
fore long big Fritz" disappeared.
Whlstling Dick waited as long as his
judgment advised and then slid swiftly
to the ground. AS he picked his way
where night still fingered among the
big, reeking, musty warehouses he
gave way to the habit that had won
for him his title Subdued, yet clear,
with each note as true and liquid as a

Big Fritzs heavy Iustache rounded
into circle, and from its depths came
a sound deep and mellow as that from

air the tramp had been whistling.

began his retreat toward rural
refuge. A few days in the country
need not necessarily prove disastroRs.
However, 1t was with a depressed
spirit that Whistling Dick passed the
old French market on his chosen route
down tn river. For safety's sake he
still presented to the world his por-

He overlooked fields of sugar cane so
vast that their farthest limits melted
into the sky. The sugar-making season
was well advanced, and the cutters
were at work.

Birds Help Farmers.

Birds are almost as busy as bees,
and their work in increasing crop
yields is highly important, says the
Firesade. One Of the cheapest and
most effective ways TO fight insect pests
that annually take crop toll estimated
at $900,000,000 is to aid in the preser-
walton of bird life. Such worms and
bugs as infest our gardens are favorite
food for bluebirds, robins and many
other kinds of birds. Birds also eat
thousands of weed seeds.

To make a night light with phospho-

Fill the bottle about one-third full of
olive oil, heated to the boiling point,
and cork tightly. When light is need
ed, take out the cork and allow the
air to enter-then recork the bottle.
The empty space in the bottle will be-
come luminous. When the light be-
comes dim, uncork the bottle for a few
