Chapman) “This war,” said Uncle Zeke, wag | ging his head solemnly, “is the beg_in- ning of the thousand years in which Satan’s to rule. I've looked it up in Revelations, and I'm sure I've got it right. Why, the figures correspond | exactly. ‘Times and times and half a | time,’ it says.” | And he went on to explain the mean- | ing of the mysterious prediction which | has baffled all the students of the | Scriptures. As Uncle Zeke had a com- fortable fortune, we listened respect- | fully. “So you see, Henry,” he continued, addressing my husband, “if the Holy Book speaks the truth, which I believe with all my heart, the world, as we know it, is coming to an end in three weeks' time at half-past seven in the morning of Wednesday. Seems to me it ought to end on a Saturday nisht, but’ that's what the Eook says and it ain’t for me to reason why. So, as 1 was ‘about to say, I wen't need my money after Tuesday night, except | enough to pay the milkman when he , comes at seven the next morning, and I'm going to divide all I have between Jenny.” Henry and Henry to me, a8 Vi | L OAUE0 you and Nephew James and Niecs e I had a considerabie ) mourniul | a disillusioned man. e of gold. :i.l‘l’ be of rubies and diamonds. all there,” he says, slapping the Oood Book.

We put the m Ao “I've made a mistake, children,” he | cays to us. 1 wasn't allowing for the difference between American and ori- | ental time. The millennium will be- | gin exactly at three minutes before jght tonight.” ‘ And he showed us a chart of the gky with which he had figured out his taeory. - There was a dollar and nine cept; \ble for the milkman, which Zeke had set there because he i aid that, though gold and silver wouldn't be anything but dross, it wa§ a man’s duty to pay his debts, “Suppose the millennium doesnt come?" suggested Cousin James, about eleven o'clock. His words relieved me, 1 had been getting a queer cort of creepy feeling, sitting there and waiting for the end of the world. 1 thonght Uncle Zeke would get mgd. but to my surprise he looked quite “Children,” he says, ‘I don't mind telling you now that I've had my doubts all along. That was what made me seem so sure. I wanted to show my faith, but somehow I've mistrusted whether it wouldn't be in nine hun- dred years more instead of tonight. You see, there’s a passage in Daniel which seems open to two meanings. But anyway,” he says, “it'll either be tonight or in exactly nine hundred vears, if you add on another ‘times.” I tell you, when it was five minutes before midnight I felt all shivery. And | the hand went round to the three. “It's coming now!” says Uncle Zeke. But it didn’t come, and when mid- | night struck Uncle Zeke banged down his hand on the table. “Gabriel can't be late,” he says, like “It won't be for nine hundred years to come, and—and I'm a pauper.” “No you ain't Uncle Zeke" yells Henry, and shoves the seven thousand dollars under his nose. And, would you believe it?—what ! did Cousin James and Cousin Jenny do but pull out seven thousand apiece and push it onto the table! “Why, Jenny!” 1 cried, “I thought ! vou and James were trying to work up “The World, as We Know It, Is Com- ing to a End in Three Weeks.” argument after we got home. Of course we realized that, like many old men at his time of life, Uncle Zeke was failing. But we knew that if James Carnigan got hold of the third part of Uncle Zeke's money, and Jenny Myers of the second third, wild horses wouldn’t drag it from them when Un- cle Zeke woke up and found the world hadn’t ended as he expected it to. “What we've got to do, Henry,” I sald, “is to stop Uncle Zeke giving his money away, or, if we can't do that, | to get him to give it all to us, so that we can give it back to him. He won't last long, anyway, and maybe he'll leave us everything as a reward for our honesty.” Henry thought that was best, and when I met Cousin Jenny on the street that morning the way she looked at me showed me that she was after Uncle Zeke's money. She had a new coat, which made me think she’d been | buying it because she felt sure of ' Uncle Zeke's fortune. And the first | words she sald confirmed my suspl- | clons. “Have you heard Uncle Zeke thinks the millennium is coming?” she asked. | “I bave,” I answered, “and likewise that he's going to divide up his money among his nephew and two nieces.” “It's & shame,” says Cousin Jennie hotly. “Why, what'll he do when he wakes up and finds it was all a de | luslon?" “He'll have just one-third as much money as he had before,” I answered. | “Well, you spoke the truth there,” snapped Cousin Jenny tartly, and walked off in the rudest way. When Henry came home for lunch be told me that James had been into the store and was trying to get him not to take Uncle Zeke's money. So then I knew that Cousin James had something in his mind too. ““Well, my dear,” sald Henry to me, “the best thing we can do is to go to Uncle Zeke and try to persuade him | to let us take care of his money for him in case he's made a mistake.” ‘Which he did, and I never saw Un- cle Zeke so angry in my life. “You're the third,” he says to me. “What with James and Jenny and you all trying to get hold of my property, you're debasing my faith in human na- ture. Not that it makes the least bi seven on Wednesday morning come three weeks money won't be of no use at all. Why, you poor, silly creatures, e —————————— s Adversity. A high character might be Pproduced uncle into giving each of you every- thing, and I wanted to save it from you.” “Same here!” says Cousin James, staring at me. But Jenny and I were kissing each other so hard that I only saw out of the tail of my eye how Uncle Zeke grabbed the bills and stowed them away. Yes, human nature isn’t so bad as some folks claim. SEATED ACCORDING TO RANK Strict Rules Regulated the Positions of the Spectators in the Old Roman Theaters. When Rome was in her glory and the theater most popular, distinctions between spectators long remained un- known. When distinctions were made the best seats were not assigned to the priests, for the drama had no such religious significance for the Romans as it had for the Greeks, but were set apart for the more aristocratic portion of the community. The orchestra was by law set apart for the senators; later, perhaps after 67 B. C., the first fourteen rows back of the orchestra were, by the law of Roscius Otho, re- served at Rome for the knights, says Art and Archeology. Similar arrange- ments obtained in Roman theaters out- side of Rome, though in a provincial town like Pompeii as many as four- teen rows of seats can hardly have | been necessary for the knights. Au- gustus regulated the whole matter afresh. He confirmed the special privileges already granted to senators and to knights; he relegated the low- est classes to the highest seats and made the women sit apart, likewise in the uppermost places. It is pos- sible that he was sponsor also for the more exact regulations laid down con- cerning places of honor for magis- trates, priests, etc. The seats of high- est honor were those on the tribunalia. Here the editor and the emperor sat, ion the right side: on the other tri- bunal the vestal virgins had their places, and with them the empress. The Connection Plain.
