"Uncle Gregory," retorted the recalcitrant and discredited Donald Daird. with a whimsical twinkle in his merry eye, "I found out long ugo that I was an odd fish, not much good except to knock around the world, work hard and keep cheerful. Hero you insist on my remaining a laud lubber. 1 don't fit in. Let me go back to the blue ?nd bounding billow again, and throw me off your mind, and make me happy." Old Gregory Baird shook his head dolefully and gronned. He was very fond of this erratic relative of his. When Donald returned from running away to sea after a voyage around the wOrld two years previous, the uncle had set down his foot hard. "Here is a comfortable home and enough to last out several lifetimes." he had observed. "I'll leave it to you and Rupert if you obey me and be- 1 have yourselves. If you don't. I'll cut the rebel off with a penny." And so, not that he thought of the money, but beeauso he loved and re-, spected the old man, Donald hung around the Baird homestead, half bored to death .an<l longing constantly for the rollicking breezy life on the ocean wave. "It's all right, your studying navigation and trigonometry, and all those i sailor-like gimcracks," now spoke Undo Gregory, "but all you need to do is to find some good woman for a wife, settle down here, run tho estate and enjoy life." "I've yet to see tho lady I'd take for a mate!" laughed Donald. "I'd rather be free to rove as 1 please and j uuay iiijbpii uduui me village nere, oven If all I And to do Is to spin sea yarns for the boyB and girls and make toy boats for tho littlo tots." "You're wrong there, Donald," Insisted the old man. "Every man owes It to himself to settle down and raise a family. Now look at your cousin, Rupert?dresses well, goes into the social swim, and has got in with the A Tossing Light Directed Him. high-up Miss Myrtle Caruthers set at Silver lake. Shouldn't wonder if he'd ^ iumi) net. jwu l >?>u see ties gin. a purpose in life?" "I don't," answered Donald bluntly, "if lie's Just posing to bo stylish and marry for money." Donald was a general favorite in the village. Ho was going home one lowering, blustering afternoon after making some wonderful kites for Borne poor school children, when ho noticed people running towards the public square. "What's up?" ho inquired of a passing pedestrian. "Don't know, but big crowd down yonder. I see an automobile. May- j bo it's a smashup." As Donald neared the square he noticed tho machine in question. It I contained the driver, the most beaut.1- j ful young girl he had ever seen, and her maid. The latter held ah empty bird cage, and like her young mistress, her eyes wore directed up Into the air. The crowd about them were gaping and staring in the same direction. The town hall was the tallest building in town. Running up from its roof thero was a flag pole fully seventy-flve feet In height. The stroug breeze was whlDoinc tho loose rones about this, and at the apex knob, where they were fastened, a bright blue object was fluttering frantically. It was a blue bird, which the traveled Donald at once recognized as a product of Borneo, famous for its brilliant color and a song noto of sweetly expressive cadence. Just now, however, the poor imprisoned creature was uttering shrill cries of terror and pain. "It got out of the cage, flew away, and its foot is caught in the tangled ropes up yonder," some one remarked. That it was the cherished pet of the beautiful young lady, Donald at once discerned. No one ventured to suggest a way to release the bird. A first glance at the face of the young lady had enthralled Donald. As a second eplcted her rare anxiety, Donald spoke to a bystander. "I will get her pet for her," he said simply, and disappeared within the building. . A rustle of intense excitement swayed the watching throng as Donald appeared on the roof of the build \ v> **?".; ' V. rHE FORT MILL TIMES, FOB ing. Then there was u breathless hush as he began climbing the smooth, yielding pole. It was entrancing to view bis sailor-like skill and hardihood. As Donald neared the top of the polo it bent over dangerously. With accurate nicety of equipoise, however, he reached tho top, released the blue bird, and holding it in one hand slid easily to the roof. A tremendous cheer rent the air as he aDDeared helnw TH? onwnt maid was advancing with the cage. Ho slipped the truant within it and modestly stepped away. "Tho young lady asked about you, she wrote down your name; she said she must see you to thank you," a neighbor told Donald that evening. "Do you know who she is?" "No." "Tho rich Miss Carutliors. They have a magnificent summer home up at Silver lake." Then tho next morning, rather g?'ueglngly it BeemecJ his Cousin Rupert came to him. "I saw Miss Caruthers last evening," he announced. "It seems you captured one of her lost pets. Sho insists that you must come up to tho lake this evening. Say," continued Rupert, with a rather disdainful glance at the careless attire of his humblo cousiu, "iix up a bit, will you?" "Ashamed of mo, aro you?" challenged I>onald, with a laugh. "Of course not; but you see. that :is. I like the family to make a good impression?see?" It seemd to Donald as though some subtle influence never before experienced was urging him to go up to Silver lake. The memory of the charming face he had seen in the automobile lingered vividly. It was just before dusk when he reached tho Caruthers home. It was well that Donald had eomo. A heavy storm had come up, darkness Him it uuiibu tug \>eru iasi enveloping tho broad lake. He found the anxious Caruthers family discussing tho probable whereabouts cf the daughter of the house and Itupert, who had gone out in a yacht. Donald was too much of a sailor not to realize tho peril of the yacht if it had not landed somewhere. He found a small steam launch at a pier. Soon he was afloat. A tossing light finally directed him. As ho drove asido of the yacht kt vvas to find his cousin sick and helpless, and useful Miss Caruthers bravely at tho helm; but tho yacht nearly a wreck. Ho had arrived just in time to save them. Superb climber, expert sailor, for the first time in his life his true manly nobleness fully appreciated by a lovely woman, Donald began to think less of the bounding main and iuoro of tho joys that true love brings. For Donald had met his fate, and the blue bird's fair owner superceded tho old longing for the blue, blue sea! (Copyright. 1913, by W. G. Chapman.) ERUDITE WORKMEN IN PANAMA Men of Intelligence and Education Handled Pick rnd Shovel In Construction of Canal. During the census-taking at Empire, Mr. Harry A. Franck, who tells in "Zone Policeman 88" of his experiences as an enumerator in the Panama canal zone, was startled one morning to burst suddenly from the tawdry, junk-jumbled rooms of tho negroes into a bare-fioorcd, freshly-scrubbed room. It contained some very clean cots, a small table and hammock, and a general air of frankness and simplicity. j\i me liiiiiu, uook in nana, sat a Spaniard. He was dressed in worn but newly washed working clothes. I sat down and began to reel off tho questions that had grown automatic: "Name ?" "Frederlco Malero." "Can you read?" "A little." The burest suggestion of amusement in his voice caused me to look up quickly. "My library," he said, with the ghost of a smile, nodding his head slightly toward an unpainted shelf made of pieces of dynamite boxes. "Mine and my roonunato'B." The shelf was filled with real Harcelona paper editions of Hegel, Flehte. Spencer, Huxley and a half-dozen others accustomed to sit in tho samo company, all dog-eared with much reading. "Somo ambitious foreman," I musod. and went on with my queries: "Occupation?" "Pico y pala," he answered. "Pick and shovel!" I exclaimed. "And you read those?" "No importa," ho answered, again with that ?lusive shadow of a smile. "It doesn't matter," pnd au I rose to leave, "Huenos dlas, senor," and ho turned again to his reading. A few months before, 1 remembered, it had turned out that a Spanish luborcr killed in a dynamite explosion in the "cut" had once boon a celebrated lawyer in Spuin. I recalled that El Unico, the anarchist Spanish weekly published in Mlrafiores, contains some crystal-clear thinking, set forth in language that shows intelligence and education. whatever you may think of tho philosophy It expounds. Many a romance and many a tragedy, perhaps, was played out among tho busy Jungles of Panama.? Youth's Companion. When Sarah Scored. Mistress?"Sarah, I heard that policemen here again last night.

GuaranU Good BoweL An A Growing Children Need a Mild Laxative to Foster Regular Bowel Movement. As a child grows older it requiros more and more personal attention from the mother, and as the functions of the bowels are of the utmost i mnnrto noo t/v KooltVi ??.? ?* should be paid to them. Diet Is of groat importance, and the mother should watch the efTect of certain foods. A food will constipate one and not another, and so we have a | healthy food like eggs causing biliousness to thousands, and a wholesome fruit like bananas constipating many. It is also to be considered thnt the child is growing, and great changes 1 are taking place in the young man or young woman. The system has not yet I settled itself to its later routine. A very valuablo remedy at this stage, and one which every growing boy and girl should bo given often or j occasionally, according to tho individI ual circumstances, is Dr. Caldwell's I Syrup Pepsin. This is a laxativo and i tonic combined, so mild that it is given to little babies, and yet equally ! effective in the most robust constitution. At the first sign of a tendency to constipation give a small dose of Syrup Pepsin at night on retiring, and prompt action will follow in the morning. It not only acts on the stomach and bowels but Its tonic properties j build up and strengthen tho system generally, which is an opinion shared by Mr. John Dey of Rloomfleld, N. J.
