he pronounced it "where ce, ano in an

"Get next to the walk. Miller, get on,

moment and spot copiously into

ly settled into young Mr. Hull chair
and again directed what waa supposed
to be a terrorizing stare at Artie.
"What did I tell you, Miller?
Clnudie's a scrapper. He'd jug as soon
give a guy a 'tump in the tcct' as louk

The boy gave a sniff of contempt and
began an examination of the papers on
Mr. Hull's desk, picking up some of the
k-tters and studying them, his lips go
ing through the motions of reading,
ilrtle sat, with face Illumined, and
watched the boy. He was evidently
fascinated by the display of supreme
impudence.
Is there anything we cau do fof
you?" he asked. "Miller's got some
private letters you can read when you
get through over there.
Aw, go chase yourself," replied tli
boy, although he had some difficulty
in saying it. His cheeks were again
puffed out and he was casutlly looking
around for a receptacle,
'Turn up your pants, Miller; he's
goln' to have another hemorrhage,
said Artie, and as
he spoke the boy
again spat into tho
waste basket.
"Well, Claudie.

"S-s-sure. Where you been at?

"Don't be saucy," said yonng Mr. Hall,
severely.
"Aw, rats!
"You ain't mad, are you, Claudie?'
asked Artie, as the boy laboriously
moved toward the door, making noise
with his feet.
"Oh-h-b, but you flnk you're a kid

In red, and the ribbons are as the wav

gles and flicks of fans and swish of

are shops tnd women fresh from the

Anyhow "sporty" are the shop and
the women fresh from the shopsl At
present golf Is the word, and thrice as
many women aa ever went round the
course at St. Andrews or Morristown
are getting unto themselves, or have al
ready got, golfing suits which shall be
fit for general outing purposes. Plaids
are by all means the favorite prescrip
tion of the doctors of golfing fashion,
and next to them are strong tan or
cream serges, made up with bits of red
or strong color. The skirt Is always
short, about bicycling length, and that
Is a comfort. Indeed, a golling suit can
be used for bicycling, and vice versa, to
such good purpose that it Is no wonder
ao many of the former are made for
non-golfers who do not really and truly
bike."
And that reminds me: One of the first
things I saw on getting back to New
York waa a bicycle girl in the park,
tightly corseted and "clad in white

the mystery and wonder were these,

marvels of, millinery, which ore as the
sands of the sea in number.
Leaving white, a wilderness of hat

course, is a favorite with the possessor
of a certain dramatic type ot brunette
beauty. Loose plaited golden atraw,
ecru or cream lace, mauve straw,
cream paillasson are favorite grounds,
and there are tiny toques composed all
of roses sewn on invisible wire bases.
Feather and ribbon trimming in combi

hat of to-day; the stuffed bird or

by the way, how seldom one hears tha

most beautiful materials I have ever

the beautiful braid or plait, fine, yet
wonderfully strong and woven in beau

In a renere.1 w ay I know that J-ljh
Jernipao taamlgWy pood man plain,
honest-hearted, drbt-payln man, who
worship God and love hat country
and serve hi day and getwratkm to
the beet of hi feeble ability. He is
man of few word and full of business.
He never did do any talkin to speak cf,
but h moat In generally always mi tu a
what he say. He never waa a man to
dabble In future, you understand. It
la all spots with him. And takin him
up one side and down tho other, there

or a better neighbor, or a betta citlwn
anywhere In the T.ocky Creek settle
ment than that same Josiah Jertiigan.
Tint Jnalah. went to town one day laat
week. He went in his wagon and drlv
a yoke of sheers, and file Kemp-gins he
went with him. It has since leaked out
through Blev that one of the deacons
ot Bark Log church had a rough and
tumble rucua with his steer that day.
w herein hia rclifricm got a tremendiua
bod shock and strain and ahakln up,
And you must keep in mind, long-suf
fering reader, that josian waa onwu a
j oke ot teer and the weather hit wai
awelterin hot. I maybe mought be
wrong I wouldn't make out like I was
always right but I have always neu
to It that if a man can drive a yoke of
steers in hot weather and at the same
time confine his remarks to pure Bible
language he has got more genuine re
ligion than the man that built the first
church and lined the first hymn and
preached the first sermont.
From the way in wnicn n;ev rjcrog
J gins has let the cat out of the wallet it
would seem like Josiah and his steers
had been movln along smooth and
ueaceable enough till they got down
there to Caney Branch swamp. By this
time, (you understand, the- steers had
tot rood and hot and leg-wearj. and
aoon as they caught sight of the cool
and refresh) n waters of Caney Branch
tbev curled their tail and roachetl
their back and quit the road and tore
off down thro'igh the swamp tit a fast
nd furious lick. Bier he jumped the
game and lit out right then and there,
but Josiah. froze to the ropes and fol
lowed his "cow team" through three
acres of canebrakes and bamboo briars,
nd he waa atiU with em when they
went down into the water. In makin
the return trip from the swamp back to
tin big road it seems like Josiah man
aged so as to git his foot caught be
tween a wagon wheel and the couplin
Dole, and consequentially in the general
confusionment he got the heel of his
shore tore off and three of hia toes un-
jinted. It was somewheres along there
-from the .way Blev tells the news
lhat Josiah give up the fight, as it were,
and let loom and fell and spoke out
"I don't want to say It I would
ruther not say It God knows I do raley
hate to ay it, end I hope he will for
give me but if I must if I have got to
eav It-dam these steers!"
There baa now been some talk around
amongst the members of Bark Log to the
extent that a church meetin will socn
be belt, wherein Josiah Jeringan will
have to "tea up," or either take out
and quit. Of course It I none of my
business in regards to that. . But I do
hope they will all remember that Jo-
alah waa drivin a "cow team, while
the weather hit was scandalous hot.
Soma "BeeoBd-IIand Cauwin."
That make me think of the time
when me and Sam Nettle and Elder
Newberry went to town together, and
for the" first time In my life I heard
some second-hand cussin. ,
Sam and the Elder went in with their
wagons heavy loaded with cotton,
and
I had took a aeat and went along witn
the elder.
Mind you, it was then In the dead of
winter. The rains had fell heavy and
frequent, and the roads was sloppy and
oft enough to bog the shadow ot a buz
zard. It wm but only ten miles
town, though at that time It took
good team to makeiit through in a
day.
Now Sam Ne ttles waa a bad a nd wick
ed man, and every time hia wagon and
team got stallded and stuck in the mud,
or struck a iteepihill he would put in to
cusstn the mulesNand poppin hia whip
till he made the atr blue and they went
out In a storm.
Understand me now, I don't say it
the cussin that got the wagon through,
and I know as well as anybody that
was wicked and wrong for Sam to
goln on In thtat reckless way. Butaome-
how or somehow else be was so handy
and so furious with his whip and
mouth, and kept up such, a roarin
excitement till the ir ! j?st nat.urslly
got Veered and took the wfigon and
tore out of there.
