"How am I to know that all that
is coming to pass?" asked Pago,
somewhat dazed by this dazzling
forecast.
"Why," said Bparks. with a
superior air, "I know it just as cer
tain as I know that to-morrow's

ability and popularity can't help
going right up to tho top no more
than a bubble can help rising to

tho wonder is that you hav'n't been

down his brows and leered at Mr.

ly and motioning for them to follow
he led 'ihe way towards the house,
"Who are you going to vote for,
for President this fall, Mr, Pickens?"
asked Page, "Cleveland or Harri

"I'm agoin' to voto fur Seymour

"Why it's been moro than twen

said Pago in astonishment.
"Itdini't maku a bit of difference. "
said Pickens, slinking his head,
"I've tuck a notion to voto fur

to do it, I don't care what the con
sequences are." ,
"I always do things that way,"
Pickens euptinued, "when I built

opening tho back gate he invited
tho tivo young candidates to enter
and make themselves at home,
"I don't have much to cut but
pork an' cabb.ige but sieh us 'Us
you're welcome to. so go in an' set
down,"
'Pork and cabbage is a goi d

Mr. Pickens," said Sparks, "and I
told Has pur no would stop here to
day and get a good old liis-hioned
country dinner."
An odor of boiled cabbage per
vaded the premises and judging
from the scolding and rattling 1 1
pans and dishes ill the kitchen
preparations were being made lor
dinner. Tho back yard Has tenant

nnd turkcis. while a half a dozen
dogs wcio scitteicd about, and hail

with every eviilenco of hostility.
Picking up 11 bliek of stovo wood
Pickens scattered them with two or
three well directed whacks and led
the way to tho fiont porch, where
towels and tin basins ottered au

away. It appeared like a narrow
silver thread winding its way down

To the west, forests of maple, beech

lands lny back of them. Myriads
of blackbirds were passing in d' m-o
