will there's way" and up to the
time Of his falling in love he never
had been baked in anything he set
out to do.
Wills first attempt to meet the girl
was week after he first saw her in
the garden hanging the clothes. He
had scrubbed on a note, my name is
VIII Dennis. What's yours?" This
note he planned to drop over the blue
house garden wall when the train
flashed past. The track ran almost
flush with the wall, and 1t ought to
be easy.
But VIII did not reckon with the
wind, which caught the note and
whisked it merrily back along the
freight train, delivering II into the
right hand Of JEFF Franklin, another
member Of the crew, who stood on the
front platform of the caboose holding
out the hand to see whether rain was
falling. The note landed squarely in
his hand, and without computations
he read it.
VIII, standing glum on the freight
car, not suspectng the ultimate rest
ing place of the note, was brought out
Of reverie by boisterous guffaw at
his elbow, and there was jeff Frank
lin Haunting the note.
When Will learned the cause of the
merriment his eyes blazed and he
seized the note and tore it into a null
titude Of fine pieces, which he scat
tered over the side of the train. Then
he placed one hand back of Jeff-s neck
and drew that young man close to him
and held linn there, while the other
hand took the form Of fist which
was shaken In the others face, keep
ing time with these remarks:
"Jeff Franklin, II ever you so much
as breathe a word Of this to any per-
son on the earth I'll wiring your neck"
JEFF Franklin was husky, but VIII
Dennis was huskier, and the former
kept silence in regard to the note.
Will made the second attempt a
week later. Before the train started
on Its run he pulled the waste out Of
. Journal box on one Of the box cars.

BEAVER PUT IN FULL TIME
Worked Day and Night Telling and
Appropriating Tree to Its De-
sired Purpose.

A beaver In park was expert
mentally placed at work upon a tree
IL feet long and two feet six inches
thick, just as the town clock sounded
the hour of noon. The beaver began
by barking the tree foot above
ground. That done he attacked the
wood. He worked hard, alternating
his labor with dips in his bathing
pond. He bathed and labored alter
nately; then he ate his supper of
bread and carrots which the keeper
brought him, and padded about in his
pond until half-past o'clock. Ten
minutes later, when only one inch of
the trees diameter remained intact,
he bore upon his work and the tree
fell. Before 1t fell the beaver ran as
men run when they have fired a blast.
Then, as the tree lay on the ground,
he portioned 1t out mentally and be-
gan to gnaw. He worked at inter
walls all night; cut the log into three
parts. rolled two Of the portions into
the water and reserved the other third
for his permanent shelter. The wosk

Will and a Way
By r. RAY BAKER

&c. 1890. by Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate.)

(G. 1890. by Mcclure Newspaper syndicate.)
Standing with feet far apart to
maintain his balance on the swaying,
jolting box car, VIII Dennis waved
his hat at the girl he loved, and she
responded with an uplifted hand.
'Doggone itw viii growled, when
the car careened round bend and
placed big red barn between him and
the girl. 'Doggone it! Why can't I
figure out some way to get acquainted
with her? Here's another day gone
by-and I haven't met her yet"
He walked to the rear of the car
and hoped across to the one follow
ing.
swell, anyhow, day after tomorrow
she'll be spading in the garden"
For six months-ever since he took
the fast freight run on the Pembroke
line-Will had loved the girl who
lived In the blue house, close to the
track, in the northern environs of the
village Of Lawton.
Every Monday, Wednesday and Fri
day during those six months Will had
seen the girl in the garden from the
box car throne where he reigned as
brakeman of the freight. The first
time was Monday, and she was hang
ing clothes on the line in the garden.
She excited only a passing interest,
because a sheet blew across her face
and Will did not get good look.
The next time was the following
Wednesday, and the girl was spading
in the garden. She had looked up as
the freight passed and the sunlight
had sifted through the leaves of the
big maple tree at just the right angle
to illuminate the countenance attrac-
lively. 1t revealed complexion STAIN
ed deeply by the sun, curly light
brown hair, and full red lips and dim
ples-very enticing dimples.
Then and there Will fell in love for
the first time in his life, and on Fri
day, when the freight passed and he
saw the girl seated at a churn, he
summoned the courage to wave his
hat; and to his pleasure and gratifica-
tiOn she hailed him with her hand.
Will was determined young man.
Long ago he had selected as his motto
in life the adage. "Where there is a

COME NEAR FOR PROTECTION
Why Birds Prefer to Make Their Nests
in Proximity to Human
Habitations.

What is the real explanation of the
fact that so many Of our birds nest
so near our dwellings and yet show
such unfriendliness when we come
near them? Their apparent confidence
on the one hand, contradicts their sus
picion on the other. Is it because We
have here the workings of a new in
stinct which has not yet adjusted it
self to the workings Of the older In
stinct of solicitude for the safety of the
nest and young? My own interpreta
ton is that birds are not drawn neal
us by any sense of greater security in
our vicinity. 1t is evident from the
start that there is an initial fear OF
us to be overcome. How, then, could
the sense of greater safety In our pres
ence arise? Fear and trust do not
spring from the same root. Hunted ami
mails pursued by wolves or hounds will
at times take refuge in the haunts OF
men, not because they expect human
protection, but because they are des
perate, and oblivious to everything save
some means Of escape. If the hunted
deer or fox rushes into open shed OF
a barn door, it is because it is desper.
ately hard pressed, and sees and knows
nothing but some object or situation
that it may place between itself anc
its deadly enemy. The great fear OBJ
literates all minor fears.-John Bur
roughs in Harpers Magazine.

Had No Experience.

An artist was showing young WON
an over his studio. After she had
critically examined all the pictures,
she remarked:
~ notice several sunsets among
your works, but not single sunrise.
How's that?
The artist, who was rather noted
for his bohemian habits, blushed a
little at the question, and then STAN
mered:
"You see, it's this way. To tell the
truth, the reason I've never painted a
sunrise is because I'm never up at
that time"

Assyrian "Ambassadress.~

The Lady Surma OMAR Shimum has
arrived in London as the official am
bassador from the Assyrians In the
Kurdistan mountains, says the Argo-
naut.
Very handsome, not unlike the
queen of Montenegro In profile, very
bright, lively and animated. Lady
Surma OMAR Shimum is only little
more than 80 years Of age. OF fine
physique, she is also highly cultured
woman, so cultured that the arch
bishop of Canterbury closed a re-
cent interview with the "ambassador"
with the remark: 1T is extraordinary
to find so much civilization where one
could naturally have expected bar
barlsm."

WHY
KNOWLEDGE Quells Fear in
a. Human Heart

Emerson says: always do what
you are afraid to do" This is @
splendid rule for cultivating courage
but an even better rule would be, al.
ways investigate what you are afraid
Of" Is the advice of Anne Boyan Nc
Call In Delineator. Examine into the
cause of your fear; look into 1t, and
find out what 1t is.
When we go forward and investigate
the things we are afraid Of, we are
very likely to find in them something
actually helpful. Is 1t the opinion Of
others we fear? IF we could make
up our minds to 60 toward them and
try to understand them. we should FIND
that, instead of things to fear, they
are either things that are not worth
troubling about or else they are things
that would be an actual help to us.
Going toward life instead Of away
from it, learning to face, yes, and in.
vestigate, whatever frightens us,
whether our fear be a physical fear,
a mental one, or a spiritual one, this
is practicing bravery, and this at last
Is to attain to self-forgetfulness and
the merging Of our lives in others.
Brave thoughts (unselfish thoughts)
the sayings and doings of brave, un.
selfish men and women; the biography
or autobiography of brave lives; the
committing to memory of verses that
are full of spiritual bravery; the daily
conscious effort to investigate and
understand lives and beliefs and inter.
ests that are different from our own
all these will help us to cultivate that
bravery which is at heart thought OF
others, and that conscious and loving
thought Of others which is not alone
bravery but perpetual enrichment OF
life.
