THE DOG UNDER THE WAGON
Come wife said good old FarmerGray
Put on your things tis market dayAnd well be off to the nearest townThere and back ere the sunSpot No well leave old Spot behindBut Spot he barked and Spot he whinedAnd soon made up his doggish mind
To follow under the wagon
Away they went at a good round paceAnd joy came into the farmers face
Poor Spot said he did want to comeBut Im awful glad hes left at homeHell guard the barn and guard the cotAnd keep the cattle out of the lotTm not so sure of that thought Spot
The big dog under the wagon
The farmer all his produce soldhis pay In yellow gold
started homeward after darkHome through the lonely forest HarlA robber springs from behind a
Your money or else your life saye heThe moon was up but he didnt see-
The big dog under the wagon
Spot iieer barked and Spot neer whinedBut quickly caught the thief behindHe dragged him down in the mire and
dirtAnd tore his coat and tore his shirtThen held him fast on the miry groundThe robber uttered not a soundWhile his hands and feet the farmer
boundAnd tumbled him into the wagon
So Spot he saved the farmers lifeThe farmers money the farmers wifeAnd now the hero grand and gayA silver collar he wears todayAmong his friends among his foesAnd everywhere his master goes3e follows on his horny toes

ed that young man that it was thesecond of the month and that he hada disagreeable duty to perform Hesranga bell
I want to get the delinquent no-
tices out this morning Samuel hesaid to the youth who answered his
Just write to those peo-ple to the effect that upon examiningour books we find that their bills aredyer a month in arrears and that un-less they are paid in three days weshall be compelled to cut off their

His stenographer and generaldisappeared and Abbotts
mind turned into another channel3Ie was a very capable young business-man having gradually risen to theposition of secretary and generalmanager of the Evans City Consol-idated Gas company through his closejaitention to the companys affairsiBut it was not of business that
to think whe i Samuel hadback to his typewriter in the
outer office He saw in his mindseye a sweet feminine face with alear complexion through which the
led glowed delicately a sensitive proSii big eyes that were not as
carefree as such eyes should havebeen
said Abbott to himself Shesriot cut out for that sort of thing at
She hasnt the strength for itAlmost every cent of the little they
her for her school teaching andAlmost every minute of her time outside of school hours goes to the
that father of hers Its prettyIbOTd lines and she is a little heroineChats what she is
This was by no means a new trainfof thought for Abbott For severalmonths the image of the fluffyihaired little schoolteacher with thel jg blue eyes had been engaging his I
attention in season and out Whenhe dreamed a day dream this
jmage would be the central figure ofit and the dreams would go to
length For example3ie would picture a pretty house witha pretty lawn around it and the image acting with charming grace anddignity the role of hostess to their
or the image out in the
ttp strings for the morning glorywith the breeze rippling herhair perhaps
He sometimes wondered what theherself would think if she knew
took such liberties with her imHis acquaintance with her was
slight He had called on hera few times but had never been ableTto break through reserve which
J result of her sensitiveness andan leer devotion to her
father from the society ofthe young people of the town TheTruth of the matter was that inspite of Abbotts ability in affairs ofthe head he was a bungler when it
to matters of the heart No-
body knew this better than he didJmnself Before every call he hadTOade a resolution to be light andeasy in to joke with her to
her in an offhand way aboutJiimself he doubted ifRpj even

scent into the parlor his resolutionswould take flight like a flock offrightened sheep and he would bemore ill at ease than ever So he

her plainly and simply of the stateof his heart and asking her to takehim into consideration as a futurehusband With the click of Samuelstypewriter in his ears he composedthe missive and instructed Samuel tohave it mailed without delay Thenwith his mind much relieved heturned again to prosaic businessmatters After luncheon it occurred-to him to glance over the names Ofthose whose bills were in arrears
Bring me the list of delinquentsSamuel he directed He was running his eyes hastily down the column when he stopped suddenly
those letters in the mailyet Samuel he asked with an effort at calmness
Why yes sir got em in a couple-of hours ago answered Samuelbriskly
And that other letter I supposeyou have mailed that too Abbottwent on in the uncertain voice of ftman who is afraid to hear the answer to his question-
Of course I did sir I saw it wasgoing to the same address as one ofthe others so I just slipped it intothe big envelope with the notice tosave that much postage Samuelwas a zealous youth who had the interests of the company at heart
Oh you did did you cried Abbott rising to his feet What in thename of He stopped being accustomed to control himself Get backto your work now Samuel and hereafter when I tell you to mail a letterjust do it in the usual way withoutany improvements of your own
Abbott paced the floor For MissHayden to receive from him a peremptory notice that he would shutoff the supply of gas unless she paidthe bill and at the same time a declaration of love was terrible and also ridiculous His vicious chewing ofthe end of his cigar was interrupted-by short laughs of scorn at himselffor permitting such a thing to happen If he could only get that let-ter back
He knew the postman would nevergive it up to him He thought ofwaylaying him and smiled grimly atthe idea of the secretary of theEvans City Consolidated Gas com-pany turning highwayman and robbing the mails
lIe glanced at his watch and made-a hasty calculation It was four min-utes past three There was a threeoclock delivery and the letter wasprobably in it But Miss Hayden wasnot yet home from school The session was over at three oclock to besure but what conscientious teach-er had no unruly boys to keep in norother afterschool duties to performAbbott decided that she would notbe home before 330 at the earliest-It would take him about 15 minutes-to reach her house This would givehim at least ten minutes grace invhtchio bribe the to obtain
possession of that letter by hook orby crook and get away unseen bythe mistress of the house The en-velope was fortunately stamped withthe companys name which would bea help to him He felt that hischances for success were good afterall but there Was that contingencyappalling to contemplate that MissHayden might be at home with histwo communications in her possession He dismissed from his mindas hastily as possible theof meeting her under these circum-stances
Yes sir shies justfrom school said the Irish girlcheerily in reply to Abbotts anx-ious query Come right in and Illtell her youre here
jFrom his seaT cm tlie edge of theparlor chair the young man gazeddistractedly at the unsympatheticfurniture and the unresponsive bricabrac If he could only get out ofhere some How could he faceher The clock ticked loudly withno regard for his state of mind andevery tick was hurrying on the
He frowned at the clock andas he did so its tick suddenly seemedto have become a voice of succorfor it had called his attention to afamiliarlooking envelope lying beside the clock on the mantlepiece-In three strides he was across theroom and was clutching that letterin an eager grip He had just timeto thrust it into his pocket beforehe heard her footstep on the stairsRed and agitated he toqjc her
handI I beg your pardon Miss Hay-
den glad to see you Ithought I would drop see if youwouldnt if you wouldnt take awalk that is a ride I am feeling ulittle worn out you know and a tripto the park occurred to me as abracer Wont you come too
Miss Haydens blue fixedupon him wonderingly for an instantIt seemed to her a little odd that anactive business man should be wanting to go to the park at this timeAnd then she couldnt understand hisembarrassment T
v
Why you see my father shebegan doubtfully Then she remembered that her father had noticedthe paleness of her cheeks and hadadvised her several times to do thisvery take afternoon ridesto the park
Why yes I think it would be de-
lightful she exclaimed with a touchof enthusiasm in her voice It issuch a beautiful afternoon I amvery glad to get away from the humdrum cares of life now and then andits very good of you to ask me-
t Not at all answered Abbott ear-nestly
After Miss Hayden had adjustedher hat she went to the foot of thestairs and called out
Katy I thought you said therewas a letter here for me I dontseeit

from above Why no It isntKaty
It must be maam insisted KatyThe postman gave it to me not tin
minutes ago and I put it there withme own hands
Katy came down stairs and Abbottexperiencing emotions such as heimagined must be those of the amateur sneak thief made a feint ataiding search for the lost letter He was intensely relieved whenMiss exclaimed
Well look for it when I am goneKaty It will surely turn up somewhere
After the first half hour in thepark Abbott forgot the letter exceptnow and then and he forgot the selfconsciousness that had herotoforeoverwhelmed him in all his effortswhen in the of this girlThey were getting along famouslyShe was in high spirits the wall ofreserve seemed to have been a merephantom wall They went rowingand were remote from the landingin a little inlet where the trees oneither side mingled their branchesoverhead and made it seem like twilight
Here was the time and place hefelt He would be several varietiesof a fool not to take advantage ofthis opportunity He prepared tospeak out and felt the perspiration-on his brow This rowing was ratherwarm work after all He drew hishandkerchief pocket In itsfolds it brought the letter whichfluttered down at Miss Haydens feetThe blood rushed to his face Hewas afraid to look at the letter or ather
Youve dropped a letter she saidcalmlj
Like one who takes a plunge intoicy water he glanced down Theblank side had fallen upward Withan assumption of carelessness hepicked it up and then to give ventto his feelings began to row stren-uously In a moment they were inopen water again his mind was nolonger in condition for a declarationand a golden opportunity on a goldenafternoon was gone
Just cross that Hayden bill offyour list Samuel its attended todirected Abbott the next day in theoffice He did not intend that MissHayden should be bothered by anymore bills if he could help it andhe had formed a resolution so intense that it was grim to make anattempt to help it without furtherparley or delay
It was about four in the afternoonwhen Samuel rose with alacrity fromhis typewriter and stood grinning atthe counter as he always did at theapproach of a feminine patron of thecompany-
I came to pay my bill said MissHayden opening her purse I amafraid a overdue but
Oh thats all right interruptedSamuel you dont owe us anythingyour bills paid
Paid But that cant be I dontunderstand
Well our secretary knows allabout it You had better see himCome right this way
The zealous Samuel threw openthe glass door of Abbotts officewith a bow and the young manand the young stood faceto face He was on his ownground here and was wholly at hisease while she was very much embarrassed He took the hand thatshe almost unconsicously held outand led her to a chair You maygo now he said to Samuel
But Samuel did not go very farhas ears that out from his
head inquisitively and was able togather a very fair idea of whattranspired on the other side of thatglass door Samuel wont tell It isenough to say that in the near fu-ture Miss Hayden will not have topay any more bills nor even to teachschool The expression of care hasgiven place to one of happiness inher big blue Y Times
They BloodWhile a fair was being held re-
cently in a small town in Belgiumthe owner of a menagerie announcedthat one of the villagers who wasknown to possess great couragewould enter that evening a cage con-taining two lions and remain there15 minutes
When this was noised abroad everyone determined to witness the novelsight and as a result there wereseveral hundred persons in front ofthe lions cage when the
beganAt a signal from the owner the
courageous villager entered the cageand stood watching the lions They
took not the slightest notice of him and after 15 minutes hadexpired he left cage
As he did so a storm of hissesgreeted him and the next momentsuch an uproar arose that the ownersummoned the police and the
came to an endThe fact was the people expected
that the lions Would attack the villager they disappointed because no blood had been shed StrayStories
Alarmingly CapableSimpson Id be afraid to marry

Oh a girl who can run an automobile as she does would manage
