And there isn’t a Peter started for the stair door, sniff. ing hungrily as he passed the loaded table. "You can come down and eat your suvper when you‘re ready to say you‘re sorry for telling such a story,” his mother called relentlngly. Peter’s room was directly over-the parlor. When there was talking down below he could hear it distinctly. It was warm weather now. and the stove had been taken down. so that he could see as well as hear. When the door- lwll rang he lay, flat on his stomach .md watched his mother usher the Rev. 211', l‘hillet into the parlor. “1 shall Cave to ask you to excuse me," she tiliil. “whilu I whip some cream for the l ' ‘z'x- wmth watered.

He watched him scat himself in the. easiest chair in the room; it was directly under the stove- pipe hole. An idea came into Peter’s little. closely cropped headâ€"he would tish the tidy from the back of the min- ister’s chair! Tiptoelng over to the dresser. he took a pin from the cushion and bent it into’ a hook; then he rum- maged in his pockets and brought out a glass stopper. :1 horse chestnut. half a dozen "brownies." the stump of a lead pencil, four corks, a "lucky” stone and a piece of twine. The twine was what he wanted. He fastened one end of it to the bent pin and lay down to fish at his leisure. The hook swung to and fro over the head of the unsuspect- ing Mr. Phillet. He was a young man. with a “tine head of hair," and the hook lifted a lock of it in passing. He put up his hand and “shooed” at an imaginary fly. Peter giggled so that he missed the tidy. but that wasn’t all. The minister heard him and looked up. He smiled. and Peter thought he must always remember to brush his teeth, they were so white. Mr. thet blushed gniltily. “I’m afraid I am something of a p-i-g when :‘wre's chicken before me. Was that an you said. Peter?" "No. sir. I said”â€" "Yes?" the minister prompted him ghntly, “You said”-_ “Peter!” Mrs. Grayson called. “Come in and get your face washed. The min- ister is coming to tea!” Peter blushed through his freckles. "No. sir.” be said. “Ma says I can’t come down till I say I’m sorry." “Sorry for what. Peter?” “Sorry I told such a story ’bout you.” “About me?” the minister said. “Yes. sir. I-lâ€"said you was fond of vhicken." “That ain’t all." Peter confessed. “I said you ate all the chicken you could hold." t "I 'said you came here to see Aunt Bertha." he blurted out. The Rev. Mr. Phillet sat down again in his chalr‘and gasped. “Did your Aunt Bertha hear you say tint?" he asked feebly. Peter was little. He hated soap and waterâ€"and ministers. so he said “Plague take it!” under his breath and came in at a snail’s pace. “No, he ain’t neither! He’s comin’ to see Aunt Bertha and eat all the chick- en he can hold, Jest like he did last time!" word of truth in “No. sir. Don't you worry, sir. She wa’n’t anywhere around." Mr. Phjllet was silent no long that Peta m uneasy. Ho eluted MI Mthmmtgcm'onfl “What’s he comin’ for?” he asked re. lenttnlly while his mother poked a wash cloth uncomfortably around in his ear. Mr. Phillet laughed heartily. “That isn’t a story." he said. “I am." “To visit your father and me.” Mrs. Grayson said complacently. “Peter Grayson," his mother said se- verely, “go right straight up to your room and undress and go to bed.

Diaebvery of the “let“ Needle. The discovery of the magnetic needle was one or the most useful and remark- ahle of human discoveries. The needle when placed parallel to a conductor carrying an electric current would be deflected from its position to the right or left. as the case might be. This discovery created great excitement among scientists, who disbelieved in its power. It was too simple to he of value, so they thought. but acientinc minds began to study the relation- ship between magnetism and electrici- ty, and some went so far as to declare thereexistedamiaalnglinkandhe- an to .inveatlgate. experimenting mantlethatittheytaiiednoone should-ay,“1toldyonao.”aathey often say to unfortunate investigators In modern than - Among Indian soldiers sneezing is re- garded with real terror, the movements of an army being influenced by a chance sneeze. A certain rajah once withdrew his army from a besieged city because one of his forerunners happened to sneeze Just when he made up his mind to give the command to attack. Then a Brahman priest was consulted, and the time to renew the siege was fixed by him. for only thus could good luck be expected to the en- terprise-American Queen. Peter began to undress very slowly. for his stomach was empty, and he had almost decided to go down and say that he was sorry, but it was all true. He was putting on his coat again when his mother came into the room. She kissed his freckled little face and said soothingly: “Go down. dear, and eat your supper now. Aunt Bertha has a big dish of peaches and cream ready for you. The minister has explained everything. He says you did him a great kindness,” The Stage In Books. There have been many young girls ready to believe as gospel truth any- thing they saw in a book, and the more innocent the less suited they were to analyze the statements made in these inconsequent tales. They only saw that by way of the theater any pretty girl in poverty, in trouble, could in the briefest ,time become great, powerful and wealthy. No word was said of the long toil in obscurity, the yearning for recognition, the perpetual disappoint- ment, the thousand. hopes always with- ering like leaves before frost, the wretched life in poverty, of struggles against numbers and perhaps jealousy and malice. of slow increase of salary, of equal increase of expense. The old time novelist was silent as to all these and only dwelt in large and vague splendorsâ€"never adequately accounted for. Sneezing is nowhere noticed so much at the present time as in India. There, to sneeze on starting on a journey, on entering a place of business or on un- dertaking any sort of enterprise is sup- posed to betoken ill luck for the sneezer or some one with whom he comes in contact. On hearing any one, either a native or a foreigner, sneeze in a public place, a Brahman will immediately cry out: “Live! Live!” and he will continue to do so as often as the sneezing is re- look up. but he didn’t. He sat still. up very still that Peter imagined all man- ner or dreadful thingsâ€"probably he was dead or having a fit! That was itâ€"he was having a fit! They threw water on folks when they had fits. Billy Barnes had said so. Peter was thinking seriously of getting his pitch- er and treating Mr. Phiiiet to a shower bath when the doorknob turned, and his Aunt Bertha came into the room. To his delight the minister rose from “Why, Mr. Phlllet.” she said, “what is the matter? Your face is so flushed. Have you a fever?” Then his Aunt Bertha said something very disrespectful. Peter thought, to the minister. She said very low: “Who is telling a story now? It is you who should go upstairs." About Sneezing. “God bless you!” said to a person when sneezing is doubtless a relic of the past. as sneezing was looked upon as a symptom of the plague. “No," Peter called down. “I guess It was a fit.” Aunt Bertha looked up. “What does the child mean?" she said, turning to the minister. “Don’t talk to them," Peter shouted. “They have to be kept quiet. I’ll tell you. I said he ate all the chicken he could hold, and he says it’s so. and I said he came here to see you, and he says it’s a story. He didn’t Jest say so. but he thinks so, and it give him a fit. I guess.” “Come down here, Peter.” he said. “and change places with your Aunt Bertha. It is she who tells a story. You are truth itself. I do come here to see her, but I’ve been afraid to say so. You see, she doesn’t care for me at all. Peter.” But neither of them went up. They moved over into a corner of the room. where Peter couldn’t see them at all. And by and by his mother came in and said supper was ready. Bertha’s face was as red as the min- ister’s. “Of course Mr. Phillet doesn’t come here to see me. Peter,” she said severely. Aunt Bertha had never spo- ken to him like that before. He shut his eyes ‘to keep the tears back. When he opened them the minister was look- ing up at him. Peter wondered What it was. g A GUARANTEE TO CURE.
