Some people say; that there is no ro
mance in India, Those people are wrong.
Oar lives hold quite as much-a-omance
as is good for us. Sometimes more. J
Strickland was in the police, and
people did not understand him, so they
said he was a doubtful sort of a man (
and passed "by on the other side. Strickv I
laud had himself to thank for this. He
held the extraordinary theory that a
policeman in India shculd. try to kuow j
as much about tlie natives as the na-j
"tivf s themselves. How, in the whole of j
upper India th,ere is only one man who j
can pass fcr Hindoo cr Mohammedan, '
chamar cr falser as he pleases. He is ;
feared and rcspf.ctcdjy the natives from
the Ghcr Kathri to the Jamma Uusj:d, i

quires a taste for this particular amuse
ment, it abides xtilh him ail his days.
It. is .the most fascinating tiling in the
world, love not. excepted. Where other
meii'tcck ten dayti to the hills, Strick
land took leave for what bo called shi
kar, put on the disguise that appealed
to him at 5 the time, stepped down into
the browi? crowd :and was swallowed
up for awhile. He yas a quiet, dark
young fellow spare, black eyed and,
when ho was not thinking cf something
else, a very interesting companion.
Strickland, on natirc progress as he had
seen it, was wcrtn ncaring. . xi anves
hated Strickland, but they were afraid
of him. He knew too" much.
When ths Youghals came into, the
station, Strickland very gravely, as he
did everything fell in love with Miss
Youghal, aoid ' she,! after awhile, fell in
love with him because she could not
understand him. Then Strickland tcld
the parents, but " Trs. Youghal said she,
was not going to I throw her daughter
into the wcrst paid department in the
empire, and old Youghal said, in so
many words, that he mistrusted Strict
land's ways and j works and would
thank him not to speak or write to his
daughter any mora
"Very well," said Strickland, for he
did .not wish to make his lady love's
life a burden. After one long talk with
Miss Youghal he dropped the business
entirely. ' j
The Youghals went up to Simla in
April.
In July Strickland secured three
months' leave on j "urgent privateaf
fairs." He locked up liis house though
not a native in the province would wit
tingly have touched Estreekin Sahib's
gear for the world ;and went down to
see;a friend Df hie, j an old dyer, at Tarn
Taran. . ! : '
Here all trace of him was lost, until
a sais met me on the Simla mall with
this extraordinary note :
Deak Old Man Please give bearer a box of
cheroots supers, No.!l; for preference. They
are freshest at the club. I'll repay when I
reappear, but at present I am out of society,
fours, i E. Strickland.
I ordered two boxes and handed them
ever to the sais with my love. , That sais
was Strickland, and he ' was in old
Youghal's employ, attached " to Miss
Youghal' s Arab.- The poor fellow was
suffering for an English smoke and
knew that whatever happened I should
hold my tongue till the business was
over. : , ''' .'; ? - '
Later on, Mrs. j Youghal, who was
wrapped up in her servants, began talk
ing at houses where she called of her
paragon - among saises--the man who
was never too busy to get up in the
morning and pick flowers for the break
fast table and who blacked actually
blacked the hoofs of his horse like a
London coachman !, The turnout of Miss
Yougiial's Arab was a wonder and a de
light. Strickland-f-Dulloo,- I mean
found his reward in the pretty things
that Miss Youghal said to him when
Bhe went out riding.. Her parents were
pleased to find she had forgotten all her
foolishness for young Strickland and
said, she was a good girL
Strickland vows; that the two months
of his service-were the most rigid men
tal discipline he has ever gone through.
Quito'apart from the little fact that the
wife of one of his fellow saises fell in
love with him and then tried to poison
him with arsenic because he would have
nothing to do with her, he had to
school himself into keeping quiet when'
Miss' Youghal went ' cut riding with
some man who tried to flirt with her,
and he was forced; to trot behind carry
ing the blanket and hearing every word !
Also he had to keep his temper when he
He said
if it were
called him a pig for
quickly enough. .
Thus he served faithfully as Jacob
served for Rachel, and his leave was
nearly at an end when the explosion
came. He had really done his best to
keep his temper in the hearing of the
flirtations I. have mentioned, but he
broke down at last. An old and yery
distinguished general took Miss Youghal
fcr a ride and began that specially of
fensive "you're only a little, girl" sort
of flirtation most difficult for a wcmaii
to turn aside deftly and most madden
ing to listen to. Miss Ycughal was
shaking with fear at the things ho said
in the hearing of her sais. Dulloo
Strickland stood it as long as he could.
Then he caught hold cf the general's
bridle, and, in most fluent English, in
vited him, to step off and be heaved over
the cliff. Next minute Miss Youghal
began crying; and Strickland saw that
he had hopelessly given himself away
and everything was over.
The general nearly had a fit, while
Miss Youghal was sobbing out the story
of the disguise and the engagement that
wasn't recognized by the parents.
Strickland was furiously angry with
himself and more angry with the gen
eral for forcing his hand, so he said
nothing, but held the horse's head and
prepared to thrash the general as some
sort cf satisfaction, but when the gen
eral had thoroughly grasped the story
and knew who Strickland was, he began
to puff and blow in the saddle and near
ly rolled eff with "laughing.
Strickland deserved a V. C. ,
only for putting on a sais' blanket.
Then he called himself names and vow
ed that he deserved a 'thrashing, but he
was too old to take it from Strickland.
Then i lie complimented Mies Yonghal
on her lover. The scandal of the busi
ness never struck him, for ho was a
nice eld man, - with a weakness 'for flir
tati' ns. Then he laughetl again and said
tin..: :ld Youghal was a fool.
i ricklaud let go of the cob's herd
r." . -aggesterl that the general had bef
t 1 . lip them, if that was his opinion.
I, . inland knew Youghal's weakness
i- lucnwith titles and letters after
i ." names and high official position.
' . rather like a 40 minute farce,"
s.au the general, "but, begad, I will
help, if it's only to escape that tremen
dous thrashing I deserved. - Go along to
y.iir home, my sais policeman, and
change into decent kit, and I'll attack
Mr. Youghal. Miss Youghal, may I ask
you to canter homo and wait?"
1
About seven minutes later there: was
a wild hurroosh at the club. A sais,
with blanket and head rope, was asking
all the men he knew, "For heaven's
sake lend me decent clothes 1" As the
men did not recognize him, there were
some peculiar scenes before Strickland
could get' a hot bath, with soda in it, in
one room, a shirt here, a collar there, a
pair of trcusers elsewhere, and so on.
He galloped off, with half the club
wardrobe on his back 'and an utter
stranger's pony under him, to the house
of old-Youghal: j 1
The general, arrayed in purple and
fine linen, was before him. What the
general had said Strickland never knew,
but Youghal received Strickland with
moderate civility, and Mrs. Youghal,
touched by the devotion of the , trans
formed Dulloo, was almost kind, u The
general beamed and chuckled, and Miss
Youghal' came in, and, almcst before
old Youghal knew where he. was, the
parental consent had been wrenched out
and Strickland had departed with Miss
Youghal to the telegraph office to wire
for his kit. The final embarrassment
was when an utter stranger, attacked
him on the mall and asked for the stolen
pory.
So, in the end, Strickland and Miss
Youghal were married, on ,the strict un
derstanding that Strickland should drop
his old -ways and stick to department
routine, which pays best and leads to
Simla. Strickland was far too fond of
his wife 'just then to break his word,
but it was a sore trial to him ; for the
streets and the bazaars and the sounds
in them were full of meaning to Strick
land, and these called to him to come
back and take up his wanderings and
his discoveries.
Some day T will tell you how he broke
his promise to help a friend. That; was
long since, and he has, by this time,
been nearly spoiled for what he would
call shikar. .He is forgetting the slang,
and the beggar's cant, and the marks,
and the signs, and the drift of , the un
dercurrents which, if a man would
master, he must always continue to
learn.
But he fills in his departmental re
turns beautifully. Rudyard Kipling.
Making; It Easy.
An American tourist recently tramp
ing through Cornwall met some mem
bers of a village church choir return
ing from rehearsal. He asked one of
them what music they had been singing.
The answer was "Handel. " "Well,"
said he, "bat don't you find Handel
rather difficult?" "Why, no, sir," re
plied the Cornishman, "not very. You
see, we alters him. " New York Trib
