" '. -'-. - - - . :v - Little Mrs. Harvest-Mouse loved a hedge bottom. She always said It was nlore-private than the open field, and also she thought about the farmer and how he comes "to cut the - corn, but leaves the long, stiff grass in the hedge bottom ; safe, and standing when the corn is all carried away to the barn." So when Mr. Harvest-Mouse began to talk : tb 'Mrs, ; Harvest-Mouse about where to build their home -she. begged him to choose the long, stiff grass in the hedge bottom rather than the corn in the field. That is how it happened that, their tiny nest was built -between the grass, stems, and "they built it 'very cunningly of narrow blades and bits of feather or. any soft and bending stuff that they could find, andthey fixed them all in such a clever way that at r last a. wee round nest no bigger, than a cricket ball was fixed high up among the stiff green stalks as if it grew there by itself. ; It .was soft' and light and very thin, so the summer air blew gent ly through and kept it nicely aired. lne . taller grasses standing round about hid it from the hawks, and a lit- tle bindweed then grew up and helped them. - It twined around the steins and twisted its tendrils from one to anoth er,: then hung its tiny bells about and made a merry garden near the nest Mr. Harvest-Mouse Was very pleased when all was done and felt happier still when eight little baby mice were snug and safe inside. They fitted into the soft, round ball quite perfectly, which shows how wee they were. And now through, the 'hot summer days, while Mrs. Harvest-Mouse was busy with the children, Mr. Harvest- Mouse was running here and there col lecting news for his. wife and flies and other, food for himself and for his fam ily. What a. gay, clever, little mouse he. was, and as. for her," she .was the quickest,- daintiest little lady in the land, and she.taught her children to be quick and dainty too. She also taught them to be ; good, though what she would have done . had . ; they been naughty I cannot tell, for -there "was hot a corner in thejiouse to stand them In. She ran, nimbly all about the outside of the nest, and when the little ones be gan, to bite each other's tails for fun 6he patted gently through the open net work of the walls and told them how their long tails "would be useful when they came to elimb the tall, stiff grass es In the green and mazy" world of the hedge bottom where,, they lived. And the bindweed quite agreed in what she said, for it knew the value of a tail to hold by. ' v.; - . ' - : One warm evening the little mother sat on the top of her little round house, while Mr. Harvest-Mouse was chatting with a neighbor in the; corn close by, and then it was she told the children a great deal about the world. She told them how as she sat there she could see the green grass-blades bending over her and -.a sweet -bindweed bell swing gently tinder the weight of a bumble bee. She said that far away, quite high above the bindweed bells, quite high above the grass blades inthe hedge bottom, . even higher than the corn, there was blue, bluesky. She could see patches of it jrow as she looked up through their tangled screen.: : . The tiny mice inside the nest got rest less aVthe very thought of that, and they asked her.to get a bit and poke it through for them tosee. ' . You silly, silly ones," she said, "there are great things that yon cannot under stand in the big world, and one of them is the blue, blue sky. It is only to look at,, not to touch, and some day you will learn! that it comes with the sunshine and goes when it rains. A lark once told me that he loved itven more than the green world, for though the sweet grass I cools his breast and holds his nest and his little ones, yetJ the blue, blue sky is quite full of joy and goes far up above the farmhouse smoke and above the hawks and is wider than the widest field,, and though he. were to sing his heart out from dewy dawn to sunset he could never fill it all with music Oh, the big blue sky is very wide, indeed, and very far away, as you will see one day when you are strong and quite grown up." . - " Just -then a: gnat-flew by, and Mrs. Harvest-Mouse sprang up and caught it and gave it to the children through the wall," for though she talked about the sky she knew that they were hun gry and saw the gnat and caught it cleverly. ' And now that the sun was getting Ibw.she talked about the winter. She said as surely as the night came on when the daylight died away so surely weuld the winter come when summer time was ended. , , ' What could fhe winter De7 tne cuii dren thought, and one wee mouse made bold to- say he did not care, and it might come any time, for him. He had Just caught and eaten a tiny fly that had -crept through the network of the nest, and he would catchand eat the winter, too, no d6ubt. Why n6t? "&e was getting strong and bold enough for anything.- v - . - " . , ... Tiiq mother gave a pat where his lit fir. f.nr showed pink between the grass es and silenced all his silly talk at once thpn went on to tell now tne win ter was as far beyond their thinking as the blue, blue sky was high above their tiaoriH. ,;"":-' v.,...." " ' ' "The warm, soft wind that rings our iio hells." she said, "and makes sweet music in the grass. will turn to cold and bitted blasts that will blow the leaves about,? and then the bells jii w?tr.pr one by one and fall away, "and the grasses will turn quite dull. and. ary and rub against eacn other witn a shrill and fearsome sound as the wind sweeps up along the hedge bottom." At that the little mouse." whose ear was tingling still, felt frightened, and m'" nuuc iuo mviueir LuiKtu and wondered what would come of It She knew just how he felt and now she gave him comfort and advice about the future, and she told them all what they must do. "For," said she, "the winter is too great and strong for tiny creatures like ourselves, and bo while the big world and the hedge bottom are bearing the cold weather we may sleep -jjuite peacefullyeach in -a tin r hole. until the winter time is pver and the summer comes again. Tou must seek your holes when the right time comes and then be sure to. curl your talis well in to keep them f rom-the frost" .-- They all .squeaked a little promise to remember what she said and not think they knew better, and then they whis-' pered softly to each other of the great world and the sky and the winter time .and how; quite , soon they should be grown-wi' nilce.- And while they. talked and" chattered' merrily, catching- files, from tune . to time and trying who could be m6st clever and saying how much they had grown since yesterday Mr. Harvest-Mouse came home and rubbed, noses with his - wife with a grave and anxious air, for he brought bad news from the corn close by. The hawk had come and caught their kind ly neighbor, Mr.- Field-Mouse. But this he. said quite gently, sitting close to Mrs. Harvest-Mouse, lest the little ones should hear. "Ah," she 6ald and heav ed a sigh, -"how glad I am we chose the long,-stiff " grass In the hedge bottom rather . than the corn in the field!" Yes," said .he; "we did well to chxse the hedge lottom." And with that he ran about the . nest . and counted his eight children anxiously and scolded them a little and then went a-huntlng for his supper till by and by the quiet night came down and settled on the lit tie family and all was peace and dark ness for awhile. Black and White. Better Than Robber Heels. ' , Every one knows that when soldiers cross a bridge they are ordered to break step so that the regular vibration of so many feet shall not endanger the safety of the structure. An army sur geon, of .France discovered that the brain jar due to long marches in regu lar step is -as trying on "the human frame as such marching is on the struc ture of a bridge. To the regnlar repeti tion of a shock to bones and brain caused by this uniform and long con tinued marching are due the peculiar aches, pains and Illness of the troops. On a one - day march, he says,, thi shock is repeated 40,000 times, and of ten the strongest men who can walk the game distance without trouble when not in line succumb to the strain in two or three-days. '. Therefore this surgeon proposed as a remedy the use of rubber heels. This device has been tried In the French infantry with great success. .- But our army- has a better plan than that We simply break step with the command "route step." At this gait the men "march In columns of fours at the rate of 3 fo 3 miles an hour. They carry. their pieces at will, keeping the muzzle elevated. They are not required to preserve silence nor to keep the step. And that's why the American -army doesn't wear rubbers. New York Press. Rnral-EaglaDd a Land of Song. The love of song is strong as ever among the agricultural folk of Eng land, and at the -harvest home supper there Is always plenty of melody of a sort, says a London newspaper. The old ballads and songs of the peasantry as found in-, broadsides and manu scripts are full of character. ' In the great majority of cases'lhe authorship of these poems '4sunknown. One of the-old favorites for recitation at coun try festivals' used to be a dialogue be tweena"" husbandman and a serving manr'and Mr. Bell in his collection of poems and ballads says he heard this on one occasion recited at Selbofne by two countrymen, who gave it with con siderable humor and dramatic effect They, delivered It in a kind xt chant or recitative. : ., . Cnrtona Medical Case. A curious case occurred in one of the Paris hospitals which excited much comment in medical, circles. Some time ago a woman named Legros, 53 years of age, was found lying in the road in a state of Insensibility and ab solutely rigid. She was removed by the police to the hospital,, where for three weeks she remained in the same state.,1 The doctors then decided that she was dead and had been so since she was found, the preservation of her body being due to the amount of alco hol she had imbibed. ; ; Wrong Diagnosis.

The Bonomaa Caed mm Ara-maaeat That Made the Crooked Rlder'a Teeth Chatter While Ho Got Oat All the Speed Im the Animal. In the lobby of a hotel, the other evening a number of men were discuss ing sports and sporting men when the subject of nerve and grit came up. One of the party, a well known Calif ornian, who knew "Lucky" Baldwin In the old days, said: - ""Baldwin was about the hardest man to be chiseled out of anything be set his heart on getting that I ever met up with. A whole lot of people tried to put it on him in business and other sort of deals, but none of these ever suc ceeded In catching 'Lucky Baldwin sufficiently asleep to make their plans stick. . - . - - . " "Horsemen' etill "talk about funny game in which Baldwin figured on one of the Chicago race tracks a number of years ago., Baldwin had brought his magnificent string of thoroughbreds to Chicago to make an effort to annex tho swell stakes that were then on tap on the traeks In the windy town, and he got them home first or in the money In many of the biggest events. Well, ho had one of his finest horses entered la a valuable long distance event and Baldwin was particularly anxious to win this race,- not" so much for the purse end of it as for the glory of earn tnring the stake. His horse just about figured to. win. too, and Baldwin In tended to 'go down the line' on the ani mal's chances, not only at the track, but at all of the big poolrooms in the country. He stood to clean up consid erably more than $100,000 on the horse If the brute got under the wire first Baldwin's regular stable Jockey was taken sick on the morning of the race, and the old man had to hustle around for another boy to ride his horse in the big event From another horseman he bought for a big round sum the release of a high grade rider, who was to have taken the mount on a thoroughbred that didn't figure to get near the money in the stake race. Baldwin gave the jockey his Instructions as to the way he wanted the horse ridden, and then, when the betting opened, his commis sioners dumped Baldwin's money into the ring in such large quantities that the horse became an overwhelming fa vorite. ". . . . ' - "A quarter of an hour before the horses were due to go to the poet a well known bookmaker, to whom Baldwin-had often exhibited kindness In less prosperous days, ran to "where the old man was standing, chewing a straw. In his barn. - , "'Baldwin.' said the bookie to. the old man. there's a Job to beat you, and I you're going to get beat They wanted me to go In with 'em, but yoa've al ways been on the level with me, and I wouldn't stand for it , The ring has bought up your-Jock, ana? your horse is going to be snatched " 'Much obliged for telling me that replied the old man. 'Ill just make a stab to. see that the boy doesn't do any snatching, .though.' " "Baldwin borrowed another gun from one of his. stable hands (in those days he always carried one of his own about as long as your arm), and with his artillery he strolled over the Infield and took up bis stand by the fence at the turn Into the stretch. He hadn't mentioned to anybody what he was go ing to do, and the folks who saw the old man making for the stretch turn simply thought that Baldwin wanted to watch the race from that point of view. He did, for that matter, but he happened to have another end In view. "Well, the horses got away from the post In an even bunch, and then Bald win's horse went out to make the run ning. The jockey's Idea was to race the horse's bead off and then pull him In the stretch, making it appear as If the animal , bad tired. Baldwin had Instructed the Jock to play a waiting game and make his bid toward the fin ish. The horse simply outclassed bis company, however, and he didn't show any indications of leg weariness what ever as he rounded the backstretch on the rail a couple) of lengths In front of his field. Baldwin could see, however, that the crooked, jock was sawing the horse's bead off in his effort to take him back to the ruck. When the horses were still a hundred feet from him. Baldwin let out a. yell to attract' his jockey's attention, and then he flashed his two guns In the sunlight and bawl ed at the jock: '. Leggo that horse's head, you mon key devil, and go on and win or 111 shoot you so full of holes that you won't-bold molasses! . ' The Jock gave one look at those two guns that Baldwin was pointing straight at him. Then be gave Bald win's horse his head, sat down to ride for all that was In him, and the horse under him cantered in ten lengths to the good on the bit As long as 'Lucky Baldwin was on the eastern turf after that no jockey ever tried to yank one of his horses."

Whleh the Blahap Bowed Ills Qaestlaa. ... Some people had fun ovtT the re ported rejection of eieht car.dld.itcj fr the African Methodist ministry la the south by th examining bishop t-ecauw tiiev cc.o.i-' net toll ?u-dale o th flood. Nevertheless the Lisbop who asked the question knew what tie was doing. It may not have be?n a fair question, but there Is a concbte answer to It la the Bible, and he no doubt thought that the eight candidates. If they we're well versed In the Old Testa ment would answer It at once. The date of the flood was 1.C53 years after the birth of Adam. In the second month and the seventeenth day. It be gan then and continued for 40 days and nights. This la how It Is figured: The third verse of the fifth chapter of Genesis reads thus, "And Adam lived 130 years and begat a son In his own likenesses fter his Imnge. and called his name Seth." Then In tho sixth verse it Is told that Scth lived 100 years and begat Enos. Adam, rays the fourth verse, lived 800 years after the birth of Seth, and the latter after the birth ct Enos lived 807 years. So It goes on. Enos begat Cainan when he was DO; Cain an begnt Mahalalecl when be was 75; Mahalalecl begat Jared wben he was C5; Jared begat Enoch when be was 1G2. Methuselah was bcrn to Enoch when the latter was C3, and when Methuselah was IS7 he begat Lamech. and Lamecb's son Noah came Into the world wben the father was 1S2. 'This brings us down to the birth of Noah, which, according to the added ages of the several patriarchs at the time their sons were born, occurred 1,050 years after the birth of Adam. In the seventh chapter of Gcnsls the eleventh verse reads as follows: "In the six hundredth year of Noah's life. In the second month, the seventeenth day of the month.the same day were ail the. fountains of the great deep broken up and all the windows of heaven were opened." This, was the flood, and It came to pass In the year IGod after the birth of Adam. New York Sun. . - Tho Averaare Law a a It. There Is nothing more ridiculous than the average lawsuit Two men dlsputa over a few dollars and go to law. Both are sure to lose. Their neighbors are dragged. In ts.-ltnASi-ca, acd the costs amount to 10 c-r 20 times the amount in dispute. - Frequently these lawsuits ruin families and start quarrels that last for years. Some men claim It Is "principle" that actuates them In these lawsuits. It Is builbcadcdness, pure and simple. It Is nearly always easy to "split the difference." Another bad feature about these Jaw- suits Is that the county Is put to con siderable expense, and men willing to work are compelled to sit on the jury. Settle your disputes without going to law. If the man with whom you are disputing Is not willing to "split the difference." be will probably accept a proposition to leave It to three neigh bors. Atchison Globe. - AdTleo From a Doieber.
