"You don't want to be fossicking around rrornebody'tr stables and find a horse-boy entertaining his friends. They don't like visitors in this country; and you'll be asking for tman if you go inside those walls. I RWstif; it's some old Buzzard's harem." Buzzard was his own private peculiar name for the Turk, for he said he had had as a boy a natural history book of the habit of applying it to the Otto- man pmpie. I wasn't convinced, so I tried to mark down the place. It seemed to be about three miles out from the city, at the end of a steep lane on the in- land side of the hill coming from the Posporus. I fancied somebody of dis- tinction lived there. for a little farther on we met a big empty motor-ear snorting its way up, and I had a no- tion that the car belonged to the wall- ed villa. Buzzard was his own private peculiar name. for the Turk, for he said he had had as a boy a natural history book with a picture of a bird called a turkc'y-buzzard, and eouldn't get out Next day Blonkiron was in grievous trouble with his dyspe sin. About viii-May he was compellal) to lie down, and having nothing better to do I had ml? the horses again and took Peter with me. lt was funny to see Peter in a Turkish army-saddle, riding with the long Boer stirrup and the slouch of the hackveld. That afternoon was unfortunate from the start. It was not the mist and drizzle of the day before, but a stiff northern gale which blew sheets of rain in our faces and numbed our bridle hand-,. We took the same road, but'pushed west of the treneh-diitRing parties and got. to a shallow valley with a white village among cypresses. Beyond that there was a very respect- able. road which brought us to the top of a crest that in clear weather must have given a fine prospect. Then we turned our horses, and I shaped our course so as to strike the top of the long lane that abutted on the town. I wanted to investigate the white villa. But We hadn't Cone far on our road hawk before we got into trouble. It erase out of a sheep-dog. a yellow mongrel brute that came at us like a thunderbolt. It took a special fancy to Peter, and hit savagely at his horse's heels and. sent it tapering " the road. l should have warned him, but I did not realize what was happen- ing till too late. For Peter, being ac- customed to mongrcls in l'iaffir kraals, took a summary way with the pest. Since it despised his whip, he out with his vistol and put a bullet through its head. The echoes of the shot had scarcely died away when the row began. A big fellow appeared running towards us, shouting wildly. I guessed he was the dog's owner, and proposed to pay no attention. But his cries summoned two other fellows--. soldiers by the look of them-who closed in on us. un- slinging their rifles as they ran. My that idea was to show them our heels, but I had no desire to be shot in the bark. and they looked like men who wouldu't stop short of shooting. So we slowed down and faced them. They made as savage-looking a trio as you would want to avoid. The shep- herd Linked as if he had been dug up. wT dirty :ruift'tvn with matted hair and u ill‘ill'li ilk? " bird's nest.

By now it was getting very dark, and we hadn't ridden a mile before it was black night. It was an annoying pre- dicament, for I had completely lost my bearings and at the best I had on);' a foggy notion of the lie of the lan . The best plan seemed to be to try and get to the top of a rise in the hope of seeing the lights of the city, but all the countryside was so pockety that it was hard to strike the right kind of rise. We had to trust to Pcter's instinct. I asked him where our line lay, and he sat vet? still for a minute tsniffing the air. hen he pointed the direc- tion.

It was a wild journey, for darkness clung as close to us as a vest. Twice we stepped into patches of bog, and once my horse saved himself by a hair from going head forward into a gravel pit. We got tangled up in strands of wire, and often found ourselves rub- bing our noses against tree trunks. Several times I had to get down and make a Cap in barricades of loose stones.

A "as 7“, ".q%btNr.P_P_M.. ___ Vee"-"" Two years ago we were quarantined by diphtheria, and the boy had to do all the kitchen work. He also took care of a little six-year-old cousin. This was work for which he was wholly untrained, but he got along fine, and the food prepared for the pa- tient and his father, who acted as nurse, was surprisingly good. He was a happy boy, however, when Mother was able to take charge once more, and as we could then obtain help he had an honorable discharge. I feel that he had learned a good deal, because we have not always kept him at the drudgery of chores, but have given him work that required some care and responsibility. We have told him about our business, and have made him feel that he has an interest in it. We believed experience was the best teacher, and he has learned by doing. I think the way he managed when we were in quarantine showed that he had an ability to take responsibility, and the disposition to make the best of a bad situation. And with the teaching of other things we have tried to teach him that "honesty is the best poliey."---Mrs. H. N. M. Boiling Pins in Beer. It was not until 1840 that solid- headed pins came into general use. About that time an American named Wright patented a machine which could turn out 160 pins a minute. In the manufacture ot modern pin: brass wire is used. It is drawn to the required length and pointed by means of a revolving cutter, while the heads are ehnped by a die. At this stage the pins are boiled in weak beer to remove grease and other matter. Thea they are given a bright silvery appear- ance by coating them with tin, or "coloring," as it is called. In the middle ages pins were made by a very slow and tedious method. each pin passing through sixteen dit. ferent hands before it was tiniahed! The head, which consisted of a small piece of wire, was made separately and secured to the shank by compres- sion. The most costly pins are those made of very tine hair-like wire; these are used by insect eoiletetors. The Saxons made their pins ehiMy of bronze and bone; they were Curr ously fashioned, some being in the form of a horse-tshoe, while other: - aembled a cross. Specimens of these ancient pins have been unearthed from the prehis- toric cave dwellings ot Switzerland. In length some ot them compare ta. vorably with our modern hat-pins'. They are wonderfully carved with or- namental heads, acme resembling ani- mais, while others, with round amber heads, look like modern scarf-pins.
