That was ten dollars a year for the ten years he had been courting her. Secondly, close on the heels of the widow’s suit had come a gale of wind that had twisted the spire of the Bap- tist church until it resembled a gigan- tic corkscrew. Some of the congrega- tion were in favor of a new spire at once, and others argued that time] should be given Providence to twist it back at its own expense, 1 In the third place, Aunt Hannah | Doty, who laid claim to being a sev-| enth daughier of a seventh duughter.; \ predicted thet the judgment day was only thirty Jduyvs off. man had come along and sold 28 of | the good books in one day, and vachi book was couspicuously displayed on the parlor center table, Fourthly, Mr. Gerald Walters, a young man, had come down from the city for the fall shooting, and was stopping at the tavern.

Sixthly, bills were posted for a cir- cus to show at Farmville. It was the usual Mammoth Aggregation, but it had one feature never shown before in any circus on the face of the globe. It had a wild man from Africa who lived on raw meat and bananas, and who had to be kept chained in a cage. The name of the wild man was “Zam.” He consumed sixteen pounds of raw meat daily, and on top of that, | my best cow!” three times a week, he devoured a | (Copyright, 1912, by the McClure Newss bunch of bananas. He was the strongest man, wild or tame, this world ever saw. He. could kill an elephant at one blow. 1ie could run down the ostrich or tear a lion limb from limb. At a certain point in the performance he would be taken from his cage by three men and paraded around the ring. For three or four days previous to the circus all work in and around Farmville was stopped, and for the first time in twenty years staid old citizens forgot to shut the hen house door or feed the pig at sundown. On the morning of the great day itself the strain was 8o intense that Deacon Chambers was impelled to say from the postoffice steps: “I guess the ontside world will know where Farmvil' - after this! I've al- lus told you fe. ..s that we’d have our boom when the sign come right, and here she are!™ It wasn't much of a circus, even for a village.

He yelled. He whooped. He casi away his chains, and after seizing Aunt ifannah Doty by the body and throwing her across the sawdust ring he made a break for the tent entrance and went running down the highway.

Mr. Walters, puffing and 1% blowing, came up to find a good look- ing girl huddled among the daisies, and he ran to a brook and got water | - in his hat and sopped her face, mak- | ing the usual mess of it.

It was reached again that evening, and | the next day and the next. In fact Mr. l Walters felt it his duty to pay a call | at least once a day until sure that the | wild man had returned to his mother | in Michigan. And all this resulted in | Deacon Chambers speaking from the postoffice steps for the third time and | saying: i “Darn my hat, but what do you fel-| lers think now?” “What {s it?” i “That chipmunk killer and the gal that fainted away are sittin' up nights together, and if that don't mean love and marriage I'l saw the horns of?
