Howard Bascomb's tl
pleasant hcme, and b
stepping to it, she
received this mes
osage from her hus
band:

You know what In. P
neew for a week or ten days' absence.
Get your sister to stay with you for
company. Good -bye, dear, s'long. Take
care of yourself."
Then he rung off, and Mrs. Bascomb
went in search of the satce, thm. she
packed with a deft hand. She was a
youngo woman, sensible, well-balanced,
and nothind ever disturbed or annoyed
her to the extent of making her fidgety
or nervous. Being in robust health,
she hardly koew what nerves meant.
She was setf-reliant, but domestic, and
absorbed m her home life, which com
prised her world. And she iever crossed
any bridges until she came to them. She
knew that her husband had intended
going to New York on the following
Shay, and did not wonder or ponder over
his ciaie of plans.
when the messener came for the
Iatcnel she sent it carefullt packed, just
as she knew her husband wanted it.
She added nothing to its usual contents,
and subtracted nothing. Yes, stay.
She did take out his seven-shooter,
every chamber of which wans loaded, ad
laid it on the table under the mirror, in
thre bace parlor.
"Howdy has one revolver with him.
That will have to do him this trip. II
hke to have one handy in case I s nould
need it."
She fmiled and smiled again without
be-ing a vilain. The idea of peedeng
firearms seemed so incongruous and
absurd.
In the afternoon she went up to hr
home to "lborr-ow her sister," as she ex

ouse was'locked up, sent Kitty to bed
,nd went into her front parlor, which
vas lighted and cosy, just as if the mas
er of the house were at home.
"I must send father's message to How
rd," she solihquized, and seating her
elf at the pretty little desk which had
een one of her wedding presents, she
rote a postal card. After giving tho
msiness from her father, she added one
or herself. When the card was a I
Iressed she went to the window and
ooked out, wondering why she had not
hought to write it earlier in the even
ag. .There was a mail box diagonally
cross the street on the corner.
"I'll Just run across and mail it. I'll
ave the door open-it wont take a
ioment."
Taking a wrap from the hat-tree in
e hall, she threw it about her, saw
bat no one was passing, and slipped
ut. It took her only a moment to drop
at card in the box and run back to the
.ouse. The door was ajar as she had
ft it, no one was on the street; but in
at one moment
It was past midnight. Mrs. Bascomb

he was surprised when the clock; struck
e half hour, and laid her book down.
[ot that she felt sleepy, but she had just
etermined that she would sleep down
tairs in the new folding-bed in the back
arlor. There were portieres between
de rooms, but these were drawa back
nd hung limp on either side.
The "bed" was a large handbome book
ase, with bric-a-brac on its top shelf.
Irs. Bascomb let it dovn and admired it
rom all sides. It took up all the space
etween 'the wails, except just room I
nough for her to pass to the little table
inder the mirror, where H1oward's revol
-er lay. She now pushed this further
>ack and laid her watc'a and chain-her
redding present from her father--her
iamond graduation ring, her diamond,
agagement ring and her purse, which
he took out of the pocket of her dress,
a the table in a shining heap.
"I wonder if ne marrie- the tall, thin
ne, or the short, homely one," she said
o herself, and, goinz out into the par
or, picked up the book again, and was
oon deep in the plot.
A noise roused her. She looked at thL
olding doors leading into the hall.
['hey were locked, she knew. t Then she'
urned her eyes toward the back parlor.
"It's the new folding bed getting
sed to being open," she thought, con
cious of a slight exhilaration in the re
ron of her heart. Then she glanced at
mirror, in which she saw the full
ength figure of a man standing back of
he portieres.
I have heard it said, or read some-.
vhere, that every man is ready to pro
ect a woman from every other man ex.
ept himself. At that moment Lottie
3ascomb would rather nave seen a tiger
tanding ready to devour her. Her next
urprise was at his manner of address:
"Good eveing, maA-n," and ht,
tepped from the portiere and stood be
ore her. "You needn't be frightened)
aint goin' to hurt you."
"What do you waniti" Her voice did
iot even tremble.
"I want the money your- husband
>rought home that he's goin' to take to
.ew York to-morrow."
"I don't krnow what money you mean.

ork now. He left to-day at noon."
She had risen frora her chair and
stared forward to reach the revolver.
But she could not outwit the disap
pointed and enraged burglar.
He sprang to intercept her, and
struck his foot against the folding-bed,
throwing himself across it in his attempt
to retain his balance. There was a grina
ing, whirring sound and a complete dis
ppearance of one of the principals in
ihis affair.
On that ssme night a belate I citizn
urrying home was accosted from the
ower window of a house he was passing
a the residence portion of the city,
"Sir, oh, sir!"
He stopped, for it was a woman'a
roice, pitched at an alarm key.
"Will you please find the policeman
> this beat and send him here in
stanty?"
"Can I be of any assistance?"
"No. It's a burglar, and I have him
iafe."
The policeman arrived, and with him
the passer-by she had accosted, whose
ervics were not required, however.
The policeman went to the telephone and
summoned help. Meanwhile he took up
i positoa where earlier in the evenin
the foldinz-bed had stood. It was now
shut up, antd looked merely a ma'ssive
>ookcase again.
When the patrol wagon arrived, this
esk becamne an objec;; of immediate in

The Iroquois, as they were named by a
e French, or the Five Nations, as they abl
alied themselves, hung like a cloud over of

ederation was a natural one, for they ten

yugas, Onondagas, Oneidas, and Sne-e
as were proud of their own totems and c
eir own chiefs, but in war they were El
oquis, and the enemy of one was the AO
emy of all. Their numbers were small, Tb
r they were never able to put two stri
ousand warriors in the field, and their .eer
>untry was limited, for their villages bei
rere scattered over the track which lies bet

They had destroyed the tribes of the

MY BABY.
I aweited my baby this morning,
As 1 wait for him every day.
To come from his early breakfast
So loving and blithe and gay.
With his books slung over his sboalder,
And his little cap in his hanL,'
To take sweet leave of his mother,
To look in her eyes, and stand
A moment beside her, smile.
As he goes through the pretty rule
Of kissiny her twice, "Good-by ! Good- by '
Ere he trudges away to school.
I waited in vain for my darling:
could not believe my eyes
When I sawv him bound over the threshold
Out under the bright spring skies,
So eager to join his comrades
A moment he could not miss,
He had gone away and forgotten
Forgotten my good-by kiss!
It seemed as some cruel monster
Had snatchel him awa- from my a-ms!
My child! Had his mother's petting
No longer its soothing charms?
Alas! I'tis the old, old story
The mother must take her plC3
In his heart, in a far-off corner,
With her dear old yearning face
Shrined dimly within his mem'ry,
While newer, more thrilling ties
Wind in and out 'Imong his heartstrings
An.i cling to his lips and eyes.
Comrades. andsports, and sweetheart,
Now one thing, now another.
Alas for my boy, he's my "baby" no more
He's forgotten to kiss his mother!
