Harvell lay in the bottom of his ca- noe. The canoe was tied a few feet out {from the shore, and the river, deep, poweriul o fous, tuszed at the fraii ft. But Harvell did not heed the eall. The darkness was decp, yet luminous, with the promise of an moon, and {he night wind that swept from shoreward sweet and beavy with the fragrance of blooming d to the & alive to the of the scene as if mind and had not been given over for g to the problem which he had thrown bimself into the canoe to solve.

When it came he gasped: “Sometimes I think brother Paul is a fool!” Margaret's voice was stern. “Agnes, I wish you would never mention Paul Harvell's name to me. I"— But her owing too faint for the canoe to distinguish. her words, as he would. “They've started Lack to the bunga- low,” he thought. “I am a cad to have listened even thus much. But, anyhow, I've lived up to the adage. I wonder why I'm a fool’— Suddenly a realizing sense of Mar- garet's words came to him. She was going away, going within an hour, and all that he had been feeling for a year was unsaid. For a moment his stern resolve of the early evening was forgotten. Then he sat erect, every muscle t with s £ feeling. “It's better so,” he said bitterly. “It's my business to begin to forget, if sh never wants to hear my name again, He looked off toward the bank, then gave a startled exclamation. The pier had disappeared. His canoe was float- ing rapidly down stream, while his paddle was safely locked in the boat- house. “I must be almost on the rapids,” he thouglt. With the thought the boat turned the bend that had shut off the sound of the falls and the canoe was in the whirlpool. To swim was out of the question, for in the river here was a mass of jagged rocks hidden in seeth- ing water. Almost instantly the canoe was broken and ecapsized. Harvell, dazed and bruised, clung to a project- Ing rock that wrecked him. Fight as he would with all the force of his wonderful physique, he was dashed again and again upon the stones. Yot as he fought he was conscious of only one thought: “I must get there. T must have just one word with Margaret before she goes.” Then he gave a cry of remembrance. He, with the other men of the camping party, had been planning a footbridge Beross the rapids. The week before ‘with infinito toil they had laid a single line of heavy planks on the projecting rocks from shore to shore. They were not yet fastened in any way, their heavy weight serving to balance them fairly well on the stones. The dark ness, not yet lighted by the moon, conr cealed the planks, but clinging des- jperately with one hand Harvell felt about with the other and by rare good luck found a plank, wet and slippery with spray, on a neighboring rock. ‘With infinite toil he raised himself out of the water inch by inch until at last e crouched on the great stone and felt : the teeterng plins. Then on Lai nees lie started for the shore. Blinded by sprays, the planks half turning so that he could only pause, struggling with rigid mus- | cles for balance, Harvell crawled along the foot wide planks. And with each pause came new discouragement., Mar- garet would surely be gone. In a panle of haste he slipped and fought his way, now half in the bolling water, half on the slimy rocks, now again on the plankway, gaining toward his goal foot by foot. At last one final spring, and he felt again the solid earth be- neath him. Without thought of his dripping clothing he started on his half mile run through the woods to the Lungalow. “If the moon would only come up!” he thought as he tore his way through the heavy underbrush. “If—if only I am not too late! I am going to tell her anyhow, just to prove to her that I am n fool. I suppose— Oh, here is the stage road!” On up the sandy road, his clothes balf dry with his rapid pace, then with the great edge of the summer moon peering over the top of the pines, he percelved a dim figure standing by the roadside. The figure shrank back a lit- tle at the sight of the man storming up the road. Harvell passed. “Margaret!” he cried. “Yes,” answered quietly the sweet, clear voice that never failed to thrill him. “Margaret, why do you go?” Margaret, too surprised by his sudden appearance to be startled by his knowl- edge of her movements, made no reply. “Because,” Harvell plunged on, “I annoy you with attention, because I hang on your every word and glance, because I am an ordinary chap with no ancestors, and you are the personifica- tion of culture and delicacy—is that it, Margaret?” “You have no right to speak that way, Paul,” said Margaret, in her quiet voice. “No, but isn’'t that true?’ persisted Harvell. The moon was well above the treetops now. By its light he could see the look of pride with which Mar- gavet drew herself up. “So you think me a snob? You know me well indeed!” “Know you,” replied Harvell miser- ably—“no, I know nothing, except that I love you and that I can never hope to marry you.” There was a long pause. The sum- mer night was very fair around them. The girl before him seemed to Harvell a part of the wonder of the night. “You think, then,” said Margaret, “that I am too brainless to admire your fine mind, your splendid physique? Being, you say, well born, I must be a snob.” Harvell drew a long breath. *“Mar- garet,” he said, “will you marry me? Will you say yes, Margavet?’ “Not until I have told you,” answered the low voice, “that I was born and bred in poverty in the mountains of Tennessee, that I am finely born only as every American is finely born, and I am proud of it.” The sound of stagecoach wheels came up the road, but already the two figures were far up the path that led to the bungalow. Men Are Bizger Now. Until the sixteenth century armor developed in a logical way, its forms were governed by the necessitles of war, and changes in it were the re- sult of practical experience and actual experiment on the battlefield. After the sixteenth century it became fan- tastic and meaningless, a gala costume rather than a harness. The greatest captains opposed its use, but the no- bles clung to it as a mark of distinc- tlon. After it was made bullet proof it became so enormously heavy that at the end of the sixteenth century it ‘was complained that gentlemen of thir- ty were even at that age deformed by the weight of their armor. In spite of the huge armors of Henry VIIL, of Anthony of Burgundy and of some oth- ers, the average size of the modern man is greater than that of the sol- dier of the middle ages and the re- naissance, if we can judge from the armor preserved in the museums of England and the continent, which are, with few exceptions, small and nar- row, especially the leg and thigh pieces.—London Mail. The Ungainly “Mud Devil” A most curions, ugly and ungainly semi-aquatic creature is that which is known by the common name of mud devil or hellbender. The mud devil has neither the spiked tail, the horned head nor the cloven hoofs that are sup- posed to be the distinguishing marks of the evil one, but he Is hideous enough to suggest all sorts of horrid dreams and nightmares, and on that account has been made more repulsive by the bestowal of his uneuphonious common name. He is not poisonous in any way, has no horns or sting, but Is simply a mud devil because he is re- pulsively ugly. In general appearance his distorted and wart covered body Is not exactly unlike that of a gigantic tadpole. His average length Is about eighteen inches, but occasional well fed individuals may exceed even two feet from tip to tip. He has a broad, flat h2ad and a sharp, sawlike fin, running from the middle of the back b> the tall Wanted to Know Too Much. There was a series of burglaries com mitted in the fashionable section of Baltimore. So auxious were the police authorities to apprehend the culprits that Instrncticns were issued to the roundsmen to exercise extravrdinary vigilance during thelr tours ot inspec: tlon. On one occasion just after midnight en officer saw emerging noiselessly from a house in Butaw place a young man, who hastily darted down the street. The officer made after him us rapidly as possible. When he had stopped the young man he sald: “Didn’t you come out of the corner house just now ?” The young fellow, though of quite a respectable air, seemed i1l at ease. “1 did,” he answered, with some confu- slon, “Do you live iu that house?’ sternly demanded the officer. “That's an impertinent question,” re- plied the young man in a tone of great Indignation. aess of yours it is so long as her father foesn’t object.”—Success Magazine.

A male cormorant is a yard long and very strong and heavy, and, though more quaint than beautiful, whether flying, diving or sitting on the rocks or buoys, It Is a far more interesting creature an the sea gull, a wonderful instance f adaptation of form to special needs and of permanence of type enduring from remote ages, for the fossil cor- morant hardly differs from those which are now fishing from the cliffs in which their petrified ancestors are imbedded, Our common “great black cormorant” Is not only the most representative type of his family, but a link with the Inhabitants of the shallow seas of both the old and new worlds. He is found throughout Burope, in north Africa, Iigypt and the greater part of Asia, in eastern North America and, a little changed by distance, In New Zealand and Australia. Lastly, he is the only bird, except the hawks and falcons, which is trained to assist man in the capture of living prey, and in this vo- cation he is of all birds, by sense, mem- ory and affection, incomparably the best—London Spectator, He Must Have Been Asleep. Mrs. Hickam was much concerned about her youngest son. He had de- veloped a peculiarity of which he had previously shown. no trace —that of walking in his sleep. In great distress of mind she told her husband. “Samuel,” she said, “do you know that Johnny is a somnambulist 7" “A what?" “A somnambulist. He walks in his sleep.” “When did he begin to do that?” “I never mnoticed it until last night. After he had gone to bed and was sound asleep he got up, dressed him- self, went out to the woodshed and brought in an armful of kindling.” “He dld that in his sleep?” “He did. I watched him. He didn't know a thing about it this morning either. How can you explain such a thing?" “H’mph!” ejaculated Mr. Hickam. “I can’t. But if he had gone out while he was wide awake, Lucinda, and done such a thing as that voluntarily it ‘would have been a good deal harder to explain.”—Youth’s Companion.
