If It's ALxA' tanav" Mark nodded, and a sudden light came into his eyes. To him Miss Carlisle was almost an angel. The thought of her awakened all the manhood in his breast. ? 'J?? h?re. boys," he said bravely, what s the use of my pretending to you this way? You know as well us I do why I can t go. I haven't money to buy anybody s lunch. Besides, my clothes aren't fit." "Pshaw! Lots of the fellows will wear just their every day clothes, and maybe you ran earn two bits betweea now and Thursday." "If I can, I'll go!" "Sure?" "Yes, sure. I've got two bits now, but I wouldn't like to go to a place like thst with less than four bits." "(live us your hand on it." Mark went on Ins way in a strange tumult of feeling. What did it mean? Perhaps the boys were not so bad at 1 heart mm ho had thought. ' "N%w tell us what you're up to, Percy," said Hen, as soon as Mark was out of hearing. "What (.'lint said about the pumpkin made me think of it. You know how the boys bother Mark about Betty? He's sensitive to ridicule, and if you want to make him angrv, ask him about his triend Betty. Now, 1 mean to get Betty to go and take a raw pumpkin for her lunch, ami we'll fix it so Mark will bid it off and get her tie." "Will she do it?" "I'll make the thing work some way. You'll see." Before the boys left the bridge the details of the plot were carefully planned, and they parted in high glee. As the Inst, boy vanished from sight, there was a rnsding in a thick clump of willows that grew on the river-bank close by the bridge, and Miss Carlisle, with botany case in hand and a queer smile on h?*r face, stepped out from their leafy cover, and walked quickly up the bank. So mysterious were the preparations that went on the next week that one would almost, think Christmas was at hand. Karh lady wanted to outdo her | her neighbor in the tasteful arrangement i of her lunch, and at the same time keep her secret. The boys' plot throve well. Hetty, through Clinton's skilful diplomacy, was induecd to go to the festival and send a pumpkin for her 'lunch.'* As good hick would have it, Miss Carlisle gave Mark an errand to do for her in the country, for which she paid him n half-dollar. It might have, .Lgqu pure accident that'she paid him the'money in the ptesence ol Percy Drake. Another apparent accident happened, flbe made so elaborate a basket fgr hoc school to work on rifMTccet?vtt'HWt^ficl*' pupils were out. Once, on hoariug footsteps, she slipped si ipiiekly in her desk without covering it. A short time afterward, she sent Clinton McKinsey to her desk to get a hook, lie had the lid half raised when aim stepped forward to intercept. ^iim. !t was too late! He had'stfen the basket, and noted the necktie of fringed white silk which lay upon it There was no danger that Clinton would not keep the secret. lie even went so far in his self conceit as to suspect that she wished that he should know which was her lunch! The eventful evening arrived. The church house was tilled to its utmost capacity. The hoy conspirators sat on a iront scat with their unsuspecting vieliin, Mark (Jrannis, in the midst. His ves sparkled, and his checks glowe I with excitement, for the hair laova seemed bent on nothing else than making him have a good time. Such unwonted comradeship was intoxicating to him. He forgot all about | darned and threadbare best suit, especially after Miss Carlisle came in, and smiling brightly at the group hoys, took n seat facing them, in the "amen She wore a dress of dark blue, on which a white silk tie showed very plain!*. There werp white chrysanthemums in her belt, and her hair glistened in fh^ lamplight like waves of gold?at lelfst, ho Mark thought. He even forgot to be annoyed when Ben Tttndal nudged him significantlv as sjotty Morley came in. Betty was never (hashed by a crowd, and elbowed her tA the front, until she had fount! a seal as near as possible to Miss CatI Betty wore a dress of gaily tlowercd t<m\ print, upou the breast of which was 1 pinned yy oHortnom t.iu of. green cambrie. ^ Miss Carlijfehot aho, and Betty grintCt^ . ^roaJUy.

"Are you sure it's hers?" whispered Percy, as Clinton retimed his seat an i J rested the costly treasure on his knees. Clinton nodded. "I know it," he said.

"The necktie!" shouted some one i from the crowd. "Yes, tho necktie! Show us who i likes law pumpkin." Miss Carlisle left her 9eat aud came toward them. The crowd fell back a little. She did not speak to Mark, but stood near. It was enough. It kept up his fast-failing courage. Murk raised the pumpkin from the plate.

Miss Carlisle stood close i?v his side when ho cast the green tie to the floor, saying, ' I'll never do it, never! I'm going homo!" "Gentlemen don't break their bargains," she said, quietly. "Evcrv gentleman who purchased here to-night, accepted, in so doing, the conditions of the sale. Take my advice, Clinton, and make the best of what you think a poor bargain." She moved away to join Mark, and help him unpack the pumpkin. It whs a goodly store that this homely fruit yielded. Delicate sandwiches tied with blue ribbon, slices of cake, oranges, bananas and luscious grapes. Mark sat like one in a beautiful dream, listening to Miss Carlisle's cherry talk, and feeling sorry from the bottom of hie heart for poor Clinton, who, in an obscure corner, was laying slices of corned beef, gingerbread and pumpkin pie before the delighted but tutting nothing himself. In the very bottom of his basket Clinton found a card, upon which was written, in a hand svell-knowu to Swaleville youth: "The best laid schemes o' mice and men gang aft a-gley."?Youth's Companion. Snakes Attack a Span of Horses. While Fx&uk.(jA^UU, a ycupg farmer living southeast e^^cndlcton, Ind., was harrowing a pieco of new ground he aroused from slumber two ugly and cnor 1 minis black snakes, measuring about twelve feet, that immediately showed tight. They first made a rush at the young man and tried to coil themselves around his legs, but he escaped from their slimy embrace and made for the f Ctibd tit | a rapid rate^ qlosely pursued by the serpent. When.the snakes - saw that Frank was out of their ren h on the fence, they returned to the horses, which had been left standing, stdl attached to tile harrow. oon the horses were noticed to he rearingand kicking and performing acrobatic feats that would .surpass Barn urn's trained equities.

The dog's "Delmonico's," It may very appropriately be called, h done business at the same stand for ?ach longer time than its more dignifli prototype. Its glaring sign, more a tractive than artistic, covers the front < a four-story brick building in an upp East side street. For nearly a quarter of a centui Sprat's factory has had a monopoly < the making of dog food. Everythir that is made by the establishment is ino amply protected by patents. But i great is the fear that some one will di cover the secrete of the establislimeti that it is only with the greatest diflicull that an outsider obtains a view of tl interior. The business is now conduct* by a limited stock company. Kro twenty-five to fifty men are employe four days in the week. Monday ar ruesdayjof each week nre devoted to sor ing the stock on hand. It is really far from being a prepo1 jessing place. An odor, anything bt pleasant, greets tho nostrils of the visitc entering on the ground floor. This Ihe r?v?ivinK room of tho materials USC K manufactured products. Ouo surprised to learn that thou t pounds of butchers' scraps a brought here in tho course of a montt Oatmeal in wholesale quantities and toe ot herbs are used. The old-fushione dog-bone, boneset, catnip and beet roi under various scientific nauies, fir s use hero either as food or as med cine. The second floor is occupied by foi curious-looking machines having grei cylinder attachments. After some of tl men have carefully sorted the fat an the moat it is ground up separately i these machines into disagreeable masse After that it is placed into great wood* tubs, whore various yiixtures are adder The cooks in this establishment .are ver chary of telling you just what they pi in these tubs. The next process seen so much like the ordinary Inkers' wor that one is qtiite disposed "to taste thingind when the round and square cak< have been placed in the briek ovens an taken out a tempting brown, one really in sympathy with the aristoerati dog. Having been properly cooled tli biscuits are taken to the next floo where several "hinds" nre employed i lo nothing but pack them in neat past board boxes. According to size these boxes ar labelled for pet dogs, for greyhoundfor St. Bernards. Then there nre spr ciallv prepared dishes for eats. The nor inimal that has been the subject of s much derision has been specially cor sidercd, and sufficient of a specially pn pared food to keep her for two days ins be obtained for five cents. But it costs a pretty penny to keep log. A large dog must have six r sight cakes, besides a quantity of meal fhe meat will probably co?t ten eent< the cakes four cents apiece. That make $3 a week. There is the dog tax, an cost anywhere from $1.50 to $5001 There is a crate to send him to the dc show, $14; a brush and comb, $1; waterproof blanket, $15.50; a niekli plated slip, $10; a brass show-chaii $2.50; a yard chain, $1.
