 Tears glistened- in Florence Drap- CTS big blue eyes as she looked up at Jack Garter beseechingly.
 "Pm-I'm afraid it's dead." she whispered tremblingly as she touched the limp paw of little dog lying at her feet.
 "Never mind, Flossy there are plenty more little dogs in the world, and poor old Spry just had to die some time, you know. Just think how long you've had him."
 '"That's what made me love him so." she wept as she started in off the porch, followed by Carter.
 Reaching the library, he dropped down on the divan beside her and tried his best to console her but Flossy was inconsolable.
 "There never will be another one like Spry," she kept saying as she dabbed wet handkerchief to her eyes.
 "He was just a plain water spaniel, like hundreds of others. And do, for my sake, stop crying. I can't bear to see you looking so miserable; it's breaking my heart" He pressed the hand nearest his, but the girl gently withdrew it.
 You mustn't do that, Jack, it isn't polite," she said with a dash of her old spirit as she gave a quick glance at the fine, cleancut profile beside her.
 "Ah, but you know how feel, Flos- sy. When will you ever give in? Pm afraid you're interested in that Col lins fellow, or is 1t Forcythe?'
 Here, let's talk about your work, " she interrupted. "Tell me something of the cases you had today. Did you clear Simpson,"
 "I must be going" returned Garter stifly, ignoring her remark as he rose from his seat.
 A few days later he rang the Drap- CT do0rbell, which was immediately an

 As Carter handed him his hat and coat he slipped a generous tip into his hand.
 James," he said, "Tm going to ask you to do something for me-" "Yes, sir. Thank you, sir," the man replied and waited.
 "Next Wednesdays Miss F1orence's birthday. That'll be day after tomor- row. I want to give her a water spaniel like Spry. If I send the dog around here after dark tomorrow eve ming, will you keep him out of sight and then chain him to her chair be- fore she comes down to breakfast Wednesday morning? But don't tell soul."
 "Y-e-s, sir" James answered hesi- tatingly.
 "What's the matter?" demanded Carter. "Why can't you do it? It's perfectly simple." "I'll try to manage it, sir"
 "Very well, that's settled. Now would like to see Mrs. Draper alone a minute before you announce me to Miss Florence" "Yes. sir" While the servant was gone Carter wandered restlessly around the big drawing room looking at the famous paintings on the walls.
 "I'm so glad to see you. Jack" To l,n -nia I.,b T him to look down into the smiling face l of Mrs. Draper. Carter impulsively took her hand in both of his.
 "Yon grow more and more like FIosSy every day" he told her. his dark eyes glowing. "Or does Fl0SSy grow more like me?" laughed the mother.
 "I guess that's it, but what I wanted to ask you is rather peculiar. l want ed to beg an invitation to breakfast Wednesday, morning. It's her birth day, you know"

None of the family had as yet ap- peared. and Carter was hoping against hope that Flossy would be the first one to arrive. His wish came true, l and he was soon being greeted by a joyous bubbling girl. Aren't birthdays the most wonder l things on earth ?" she enthused.

ing by the sideboard was the maid holding a growing, wriggling water spaniel. At Florence's chair the but Ter was clinging to another pup of the same breed, and chained to leg of the table was a third held firmly in protesting submission by the chauf- feur. The dogs glared at each other in open hostility, while Carter turned white with rage.
 That ones from Mir. Collins," said the butler, pointing to the table leg, "and that one by the sideboard Is from MT. Forcythe. This here ones from MT. Carter"
 "How perfectly lovely of them all '" exclaimed the girl, trying to suppress the laughter in her voice.
 Take 'em all out of here but this one," commanded Carter.
 "Yes, sir," replied the butler as he peared with snarling pup under each arm and followed by the giggling serv- ants.
 "I haven't even got look in with those other fellows hanging around all the time. I believe that blamed butler gave me away!" stormed Car ter.
 But shall always love yours the best because you gave it to me-" said Florence demurely.
 "Why-why, what do you mean2" he asked unbelievingly.
 "Just that" she replied.
 As if in a daze of wonder he drew her ecstatically to him.
 "But why so sudden a changer" he asked at last.
 Because before my poor father died he made me promise not to become en- gagged or to show the slightest prefer ence for any man until after I was twenty-one."
 "And-and you've liked me all along?" he asked incredulously.
 "Why, of course I have, you dear old goose"
 "Well, I'll never say again that women can't keep secrets" he laughed happily as the two seated themselves at the table.

AGAINST USE OF LEFT HAND
Satisfactory Reasons for Discount tenancing Ambidexterity.

For some years systematic attempts have been made to teach children to use both right and left hands ind1s- criminately. But the results have been amusingly unsatisfactory. The explanation apparently is that the power of the hand Is intimately asso- ciated with the unfolding of the lan- guage sense and that the cerebral cen- ters which regulate language are To- cated on the left side, that is to say, in relation to the centers which regu- late the control of the right hand and arm.
 The examination of thousands of human skeletons has demonstrated that in all cases in which the right arm is better developed than the left is evident a cOrreSpondingly satisfactory development of the left side of the brain. It follows that left-handed persons must have less linguistic ability than the right handed, and that children obliged to use both hands indiscriminately will have diminished power of ready speech and an ability markedly less in learning and retaining languages.

Fish That Cannot Swim.

There are fish which cannot swim. Maltha, a Brazilian fish, can only crawl or walk or hop. It has long ,lpturned snout, and to some extent resembles a toad. The anterior fins of the maltha are quite small and are not able to act on the water. They are, in reality, thin paws which are If no service for swimming.
 The starfish is another fish unable 10 perform the aquatic att. Another fish. which, although unable to swim, does not get drowned, is the seahorse It Is a most peculiar-shaped inhabi- tant of the sea and, unlike most non- swimmers. loves the water.
 Then, although not strictly fish, 1t is interesting to note such crustacea as crabs, Holsters, craytish, shrimps, etc., which live in the sea but cannot swim.

Every Man Will Have One !!

Sedentary workers-those who sit at their work-especially might note that if they have the habit of crossing their legs. then can't break them selves of 1t, they should have a clean duster, or a remnant of soft cloth, and lay it on the under leg. That at once stops the shine and wear that follows "crossing." And, as duster is not always at hand, and "crossing" is always a temptation, best to cut the crossing habit clean out. A real and most saving economy.-London Answers.
