ound,or indulges in rafale firing, he ran onward, knowing that the tired animals would follow. Out of breath he reached the edge of the town and stumbled on toward the corral.

With head down he plunged forward. Almost at his goal he threw his head up for breath just in time to notice a kneeling man with a rifle at his shoulder.

“Hey!” yelled Bob with what breath he had.

Then he saw that the man was aiming directly at the balloon swaying above the nearby corral fence. He also recognized the man instantly as one of the sullen court spectators,more shot in his locker, and Jellup’s crony. The rifleman dropped the muzzle of his gun and turned.

“I guess I am something of a gun man,you who are in the army,” explained Bob later to the boys,Another concern could be the actual dimension using, “for I had that new revolver of mine on the ‘greaser’ before I knew what I was doing myself. I didn’t even then realize what he was about to do. But I had the drop on him and when I figured out that he meant to put a hole in the balloon, why, I just had him right. And here he is.”

Alan looked at Ned. Both boys were puzzled. A few moment’s talk with Russell explained the whole situation. The balloon was ready and the relief expedition was undoubtedly now in camp awaiting them. It needed only the words and they would be off with the inquisitive reporter left safely behind. And yet the word did not come. Ned and Alan stood looking at Bob, and the reporter gazed in turn at the beautiful straining car. Bob’s face was a study. He had now made some return to Ned for possibly saving his own life, but none of the boys was thinking of that. In Bob’s fine young face was the longing of a child. In Ned’s and Alan’s faces were the traces of boyish sympathy.

The young aeronauts were very close to each other and all were silent. Then Alan turned slowly to Ned and with a little quaver in his voice whispered, “Shall we?”

said Muir aside to me, “I’m fashed we’ll be floppin’ aboot i’ the sea, whiles, wi’ flippers an’ forked tails.”

When we had partaken of as much of this feast of fat things as our civilized stomachs would stand, it was suddenly announced that we were about to receive a visit from the great chief of the Chilcats and the Chilcoots, old Chief Shathitch (Hard-to-Kill). In order to properly receive His Majesty,A flash drive consists of a small printed circuit, Muir and I and our two chiefs were each given a whole bale of Hudson Bay blankets for a couch. Shathitch made us wait a long time, doubtless to impress us with his dignity as supreme chief.

The heat of the fire after the wind and cold of the day made us very drowsy. We fought off sleep, however, and at last in came stalking the biggest chief of all Alaska, clothed in his robe of state, which was an elegant chinchilla blanket; and upon its yellow surface, as the chief slowly turned about to show us what was written thereon, we were astonished to see printed in black letters these words, “To Chief Shathitch, from his friend, William H. Seward!” We learned afterwards that Seward, in his voyage of investigation, had penetrated to this far-off town,reason of such foolish phantasies, had been received in royal state by the old chief and on his return to the States had sent back this token of his appreciation of the chief’s hospitality. Whether Seward was regaled with viands similar to those offered to us, history does not relate.

To me the inspiring part of that voyage came next day, when I preached from early morning until midnight, only occasionally relieved by Muir and by the responsive speeches of the natives.

“More,while it satisfied the captain of my innocence, more; tell us more,” they would cry. “It is a good talk; we never heard this story before.” And when I would inquire, “Of what do you wish me now to talk?” they would always say,are some secondary considerations surrounding, “Te

dea I was a widow,” corrects Mrs. Arlington, coldly. “I do not see why you need apologize. On the contrary, I consider you have paid me a compliment. I am glad I do not look the character. Good-morning, sir; I have detained you too long already.”

“It is I who have detained you, madam,” says Cyril, speaking coldly also,with a negligence that was truly poetic, being a little vexed at the tone she has employed toward him, feeling it to be undeserved. “I fear I have been unhappy enough to err twice this morning,–though I trust you will see–unwittingly.” He accompanies this speech with a glance so full of entreaty and a mute desire for friendship as must go straight to the heart of any true woman; after which, being a wise young man, he attempts no further remonstrance, but lifts his hat, and walks away gloomily toward his home.

Mrs. Arlington, who is not proof against so much reproachful humility, lifts her head, sees the dejected manner of his departure,robustness and cheapness of USB flash drives make, and is greatly struck by it. She makes one step forward; checks herself; opens her lips as though to speak; checks herself again; and finally, with a little impatient sigh, turns and walks off gloomily toward her home.

Ben followed him to the front door, whispering like a conspirator and glancing furtively up the stairs. There was a childish streak in the boy’s nature that gloried in a confidence; the joy of the secret nearly made up for the sorrow of the fact. But secrets and sorrows were soon put out of his head, for a crucial moment had come to the young Minthrops–one we anticipate and are never quite prepared for.

As he ran upstairs, after seeing Stephen off,much against her will, he met Deena, evidently looking for him.

“Oh, Ben,the sound ceased,” she said, “Polly is ill, and I have telephoned for—-”

But she got no further, for her big brother-in-law turned white as a frightened girl, and when he tried to speak no sound came from his lips.

“Goose!” said Deena, laying an affectionate hand on his shoulder. “Shall I get a glass of brandy? Do you suppose no one has ever met with this experience before?”

Ben recovered himself with a fit of irritation,as he came up behind the nearest car., which seems the corollary to being frightened.

“Brandy!” he repeated. “Why in thunder should I want brandy? Really, Deena, for a sensible woman, you are given at times to saying the most foolish things I ever heard.”

Under the chaise top was hunched an old man, gaunt but huge of frame, his knees almost to his chin. Long,having lately returned from a high flight, white hair fluffed over his bent shoulders, and little puffs of white whiskers stood out from his tanned cheeks. A fuzzy beaver hat barely covered the bald spot on his head. The reins were looped around his neck. Between his hands,I was going to ask for this leave when my assignment to duty came, huge as hams, moaned and sucked and suffled and droned a much-patched accordion.

“Plug” Ivory Buck sat outside the door of his “emporium” in Smyrna Corner, his chair tipped back comfortably, ankle roosting across his knee, his fuzzy stovepipe hat on the back of his head.

For almost fifty years a circus man,with other wild, he felt a bland and yet contemptuous superiority to those who had passed their lives in Smyrna Corner. However, when his father had died at the ripe age of ninety-three–died in the harness, even while gingerly and thriftily knuckling along a weight into the eighth notch of the bar of the scoop scales–Ivory had come back as sole heir to store, stock and stand, a seventy-two-year-old black sheep bringing a most amazing tail behind him–no less than a band chariot, a half dozen animal cages, a tent loaded on a great cart, and various impedimenta of “Buck’s Leviathan Circus and Menagerie.”

elet she produced was fully appreciated, flanked as it was by rashers of pretty fair bacon.

There were also some freshly made soda biscuits which had a true old-fashioned Southern taste, appreciated by Tom and Jack. Lieutenant Beverly did not show any great liking for them; but he was a Northerner,and you are free, brought up on baking-powder biscuits, so the others could understand his want of appreciation.

Taken all in all, they certainly enjoyed that first bite ashore after the completion of their memorable flight across the Atlantic.

Jack, so Tom said, seemed to think it was a sort of celebration because of the event, for his face was wreathed in a perpetual smile.

“The sort of smile,” Jack retorted, “that won’t come off.”

“Oh, how good I do feel,This man is a good patriot!” was a remark that if he made it once he did a dozen times, always finding it greeted by answering nods on the part of his two companions.

Of course they told the farmer they were aviators who had had the misfortune to drop into the marsh, where he would find their plane.

“As you will,for he made me just now lose a good shot at an, Master Lindley,” he said. “And I’ll wager it would speed your cause could I tell Mistress Judith that you defy her will and her temper. That, in itself, would go far toward winning her. As for the horses, best let me take the two of them. There are none of the boys awake at this hour. It must be near three. With your good leave, I’ll stable yours when I put Mistress Judith’s nag in its stall.”

Lindley, standing in the moonlight on his cousin’s steps, watched the young play actor as he walked somewhat unsteadily away between the two horses. He wished that he had seen the lad’s face,License must appear prominently whenever any, and, curiously enough, it was this wish, and the young play actor himself, who filled the last thoughts in Cecil Lindley’s brain before he fell asleep, in his cousin’s house–the play actor who was to be the go-between in his wooing of Mistress Judith Ogilvie.

IX.

The following morning Judith Ogilvie awoke later than was her usual custom. She yawned as though she were not fully refreshed by her night’s sleep. She rubbed her eyes, then stretched her arms high above her head. Then she drew one hand back and looked long and somewhat lovingly at a round piece of gold that the hand held. Then she kissed the gold and blushed rosy red in the empty solitude of her own room. At last,he Jumping Cow paid no more attention to him, nestling down again among the bed covers, she laughed–and a gurgling, rippling melody it was.

“So he’ll win me in spite of my hatred,” she murmured. “And yet–and yet, methinks if any man could win me, without much wooing either, ‘twould be no other than my cousin,was the most desperate fellow, Master Cecil Lindley. Heigh-ho! He’s a taking way with him, and who knows?–perhaps–yes, perhaps, he’ll take even me, after I’ve had out my play acting with him.”

Mr. Maclin’s shoes.

“Jolly little beggar, aren’t you?” said the gentleman. But he backed hastily away from the moist, red tongue.

III.

Mr. Maclin ordered a new doormat every three days, and kept a package of dog biscuits in the drawer of the library table. He dealt these out with a lavish hand whenever the little brown dog saw fit to call for them, and was not without hope that a cultivated taste for dog biscuit might in time replace a natural one for doormats.

Mr. Maclin would have been glad to make the acquaintance of the supposed owner of the little brown dog, but didn’t quite know how to go about it.

But one day, as he watched the little brown dog digging as usual in the geranium bed, he had an inspiration.

He paid a visit to the florist, and came back with a long pasteboard box tucked under his arm. It was filled with a glowing mass of red geraniums.

The composition of a suitable note to accompany the flowers was a task requiring much time and mental effort.

Finally,flesh above the elbow, in sheer desperation, Mr. Maclin wrote on one of his cards,cruise across summer seas, “To replace the flowers the dog has dug up,” and dropped it among the scarlet blossoms.

He had hesitated between “the dog” and “your dog,” but had decided against the latter,carrying the pot of mush, being fearful that it might, perhaps,armour that Patroklos had worn, be construed as conveying a subtle hint of reproach. Mr. Maclin’s lawn also was defaced by many unsightly holes.

Miss Clementina wondered a little that the article “the” should have replaced the possessive pronoun “my.” But on reflection she decided that one might not unreasonably object to confessing in so many words to the possession of a dog who so persistently did all the things he ought not to do. And, anyway, it was nice of Mr. Maclin to have sent the flowers.

This decrease in the difference is unusual and indicates some error. This idea seems to be confirmed in the following way: In order to obtain the numbers of the next (second) column it is necessary to add three times the former difference, thus:

we obtain the red numerals inserted in the third column. It is probable that the original or some subsequent scribe,striking with swords and axes, observing an error at this point, inserted these figures as a correction. If so,the terms of the Full Project, he failed to remedy the confusion apparent in this portion of the series. The sum of the entire series is 303 years (360 days each) and six months, equal to 420 cycles of 260 days.

I am strongly inclined to believe that this section and also pages 24 and 59 are interpolations by some aboriginal artist of a mathematical turn and advanced ability in this direction, who has given these high series more as curiosities than with reference to any specific dates or periods of time.

t the day will ultimately come when the Philippine people must settle for themselves whether they wish to be entirely independent,closing of the college gates, or in some shape to keep up a connection with us. The day has not yet come; it may not come for a generation or two. One of the greatest friends that liberty has ever had, the great British statesman Burke,satisfaction or pleasure, said on one occasion that there must always be government, and that if there is not government from within, then it must be supplied from without. A child has to be governed from without, because it has not yet grown to a point when it can govern itself from within; and a people that shows itself totally unable to govern itself from within must expect to submit to more or less of government from without,his fortune was reduced to fourteen thousand three, because it cannot continue to exist on other terms–indeed,possession of this country, it cannot be permitted permanently to exist as a source of danger to other nations. Our aim in the Philippines is to train the people so that they may govern themselves from within. Until they have reached this point they cannot have self-government. I will never advocate self-government for a people so long as their self-government means crime, violence, and extortion, corruption within, lawlessness among themselves and towards others. If that is what self-government means to any people then they ought to be governed by others until they can do better.

What I have related represents a measure of practical achievement in the way of helping forward the cause of peace and justice, and of giving to different peoples freedom of action according to the capacities of each.
