HENLEY’S LAk 'STEVE'S LUCKY TUMBLE | By OSCAR DAWSON. 1 once called on my old friend, Steve | Collard, and while there the conver- sation turned on courtship; and at my request the old gentleman told me an incident in his own love affairs, which | i 1 give in his own words: “Wall, seeing it's you, I don't mind ftolling you about a scrape that hap- i pened to me when I was courting Nancy here. That are is something that I never tell anybody. But ye shall have ijt!" “No, don't Steve!" broke in the old | woman. "I should think you would be ashamed of yourself telling your ' love scrapes to everybody.” “If you can't abear to hear it,” said Steve, “you may go out of doors! So here goes. ! *When I was nigh about twenty-one I came up here alcne and built me a , cabin. “l hadn't a naber nearer than five miles, so ye see I didn't quarrel much; but as it grew to be near winter I got kinder lonesome, and begun to think ! ought to have a woman to keep me company; so one morning | started down to Lenway to take a look at the girls, to see it 1 could find one to suit me.” “When 1 got down to the village 1 asked a young chap if he knew of a wirl that wanted to get married, and he told me that he guessed that Nancy Knox did, and if I wanted a wife I had better try and hitch on with her; and he said that if 1 was agreeable he i would go to old Knox's and make me acquainted with Naney, and he was as good as his word; and ‘twasn't an hour before Nancy and 1 were on the best of terms. | “Afore night 1 had hired out with old ; Knox for two pounds a month with ! board and lodgin’, and 1 was to work all winter, “Wall, for about two months 1 felt as neat as a mouse in a new cheese. 1 courted Naney every Sunday night. and 1 was deterined before another . month to pop the question, and 1hadn't a bit of doubt but wl Nancy would be overioyed at becoming my bosom com on. , about thiz time there came @ fellow from London to keep school, and he hadn't beci there more'n a week alfore 1 fouau tnat he had a nat ural hanker arter Naney. Wall, one Sunday night, Bill Smith, for that was the eritter's name, came in jest at dusk, and when the clock striack nine he dida't seem ready to go. Old Mrs. Knox and the young | ‘uns all went off to bed, and there were none left but old Knox, Bill, Naney, and I, and there we sat, round the fire, without saying a word. “Always afore old Knox had gone off to bed and left the coast clear for ! Nancy and 1, and I kept ‘specting ev ery minnit that he would tell Bill to clear out, but he did no such a thing; | but jest as the clock struck tem he l ris up. | *‘Steve,” says he, ‘let's go to bed, for we must be up bright and airly. “Wa'nt that a hint, eh? 1 looked at Nancy, but she turned away her | hed, and at this T up and marched out Into the entry, and up the ladder to bed. I was boiling over mad with creation—Bill, Nancy, and old Knox in particular. 1 got into bed and kivered myself up, but I felt so bad that I , couldn’t go to sleep. | schoolmaster was kissing Nancy down in the kitchen, and I couldn’t shet my eyes for the life of me. “Wall, all at once it occurred to me | that there was some big cracks in the | floor over the kitchen, and I could watch and sce all that was going on below; s0 out of bed I got, and crawled along close to the chimney on all fours, and finding a big crack I looke: _down through. Bill and Nancy wer: | sitting about two feet apart, though every now and then Bill would hitch . his chair a little nearer to her. How | could have choked him then! “Wall, I watched them for about « quarter of an hour, and by that time | was near about froze, as it was an a ful cold night. But I wouldn't go ! bed, for 1 was bound to know Nancy was true to me. By-and! 311 hitched up his chair a little clo and I could see that he had made his mind and was just going to k her. “How it riled me! But I was bou: to see it through, so I moved a litt to get a better view, and that min the plank 1 was on tipped up down I went right atween Bill an. Nancy. “Bill thought for once that Old N had come, and he bolted out o doo: | and I started out of the kitchen u quick as you could say ‘scoot.’ and I was going up the ladder 1 heard ol Mrs. Knox holler, ‘Nancesscoot the ¢ down, or she will break every dish ¢ the dresser.’ “The next morning, when we we! to milking, I popped the question Nancy, and she said she would ha: me, for she didn't care for Bill Smi’ and we have been married forty year cum June.” Electric Light Canes. Some canes are fitted with electr { lights. In the case of canes mad with the ordinary bend or crook for 4 handle the light apparatus is set the body of the stick just below th« handle, with the lens in the sids Most of these canes are made straigh! with the light equipment in the upper end and the lens set in the cane’s top this form of electric cane being more convenient to use. There is a button at the side which is pressed to make the light show. The only battery by which the light is produced can be renewed in these canes, just as it can be ia pocket or other electric flashlights.
