The stable-yard of Waring
Park seemed to be slightly off
its head on a certain fine after
noon in June. Buchan after
noon as it was, so ijweet and so
soft, so full of fragrant, sleepy
haze, that any sound louder
than the sing-song of a cricket
must have distracted any ordi
nary nerve-possessing mortal.
On this particular afternoon,
however, the sole occupants of
the yard were the stable bovs,
the groom’s urchin, and the un-
dergardner’s lad, and as none
of these had vet reached the
level of nerves, whilst the blood
of all of them throbbed with
the greed for illegal sport in
every shape, their state of lazy
content was in no way upset by
a medley of blood-curdling
shrieks, squeals and gobbles
that issued from the throats of a
little boy and a big turkey
which the boy was swinging
round and round by the tail,
from the vantage ground of a
large, smooth stone, with an
amount of strength that was
preternatural, if one had judged
by the mere length of him and
had not taken into considera
tion the enormous development
of the imp’s legs and arms
The stable boys grinned, and
smoked like furnaces as the
show proceeded, and the other
two cheered like Trojans, at the
cruelty of the natural boy, and
it might have gone badly with
the turkey, if there had not
swooped down upon him and
his tormentor, just in the nick
of time, a little, lean, wiry wo
man, armed with an authority,
which even the imp, aft^r one
spasmodic struggle, saw best not
to gainsay.
“Master Dacre, whatever do
you do it for? Do you think the
bird has no feelings? There is
no sense in such goings on.”
“There is sense,” spluttered
the boy at full speed, “I like be
in’ swung and I like swingin’
the turkey, and I’ll learn him
to like it too, and if he don’t
learn that anyway he’ll learn
something else, which is life’s
discerpline, which father says
I’m learnin’ when you whip me.
If I want it, so does the turkev
and wuss, I b’longs to higher or
ders nor beasts and birds.
Here the grins of the stable-
boys broke into hoarse guffaws,
and Mary’s ire culminated in a
sharp rebuke all around.
“Go to work, you idle fellows.
I told your father long ago,
Jim. what ’ud be the latter end
of you. As for you, Robert, I
could cry when I think of your
blessed mother!”
“And what business have you
in the yard,” she cried, turing
to the two younger sinners.
“Be off with you this instant.
’Tis easy to see none of the men
are about. You two, Jim and
Robert, you’d be surprised your
selves if you could see what soft
idiots you look with them
stumps of pipes between your
jaws.
“Look, Master Dacre, look at
that bird’s tail. Haven’t you
any heart at all? The creature
might have been through t h.e
furze covert—”
“There’s not a feather broke,”
said the boy, after a critical
survey, “not one; I believe that
tails were made for swingin’ as
well as my arms was.”
For an instant words failed
Mary and she employed herself
pushing the bird into his pen.
When she came back, Dacre
had disappeared, and the vard
seemed to be quite clear of hu
man life, not to be traced even
by the smell of shag tqbacco.
Pursuit was useless, as Mary
very well knew, so she returned
to her nursery a good deal
down at heart, muttering and
murmuring as she went.
“Oh Lord, whatever is to be
the end of it all? Learning is
the ruin of the whole place, and
yet them children is as ignorant
as bears, excepting for their
queer words and ways. Set
tnern to read a Roval Reader or
to tot up a sura, bless you, they
couldn’t for the life of them.
And the tempers of the two,”
she went on, putting the cross
stiches on a darn,“their parents
had no hand in them anyway.
Where they got ’em from the
Lord only knows. Tempers,
indeed! And from them two
blessed babies as bore ’em.
bones, each holding diametri
cally opposed views on the sub
ject, and struggling hard to
prove bis or her s'de.
Now and again the husband's
voice rose to a pretty high pitch,
and his fine mouth was touched
with a sneer, and the wife’s
eyes flashed and flamed and
shot out indignant wrath. Her
hat had fallen off far down the
drive, and her rings of yellow
fluffy hair fell wildly over her
forehead, one small hand was
clenched in eager protest, but
the other was clasped tight in
her husband’s.
They always went pke this,
these two; they had got into
the foolish way very early in
their acquaintance and had nev
er been able to get out of it
Suddenly some common hypo
thesis struck them both at once,
and Mrs. Waring cried out with
a gasp:
“If we can prove it, I am
right.”
■'\es, if you can prove it,
darling, that’s the point, and I
hope that you never will. Have
you any idea, dear love, what
the proving of this will undo,
what it must upset?”
“I think I have,” she said
slowly, her blue eyes gleaming
eagerly, “but it seems to me
whenever a great hubbub is
made about the upsetting of
some theory, that it generally
ends in being much ado about
nothing, and that the new thing
that springs from the ashes of
the old dead, is infinately more
beautiful than ever its’ prede
cessor was. for it is one step
nearer the truth.”
“Dearest, we must end our
talk,” groaned Mr. Waring,
peering with terrified looks
through his eyeglasses. “Here
is Gwen, most slightly clad and
of a bright blue tint, pursued

Mr. Waring groaned in spirit
and mourned over the depravity
of the race as he read their epis
tles, and drew farther back
than ever into his shell. If the
average man and woman with
out the academical walls re
sembled these productions, the
less one had to do with them
the better he very reasonably
reflected.
After this had been going on
for the space of three months,
he came, one morning, down to
breakfast. He felt sick at
heart; his pupils seemed so
amazingly full of enthusiasm
for minor concerns, and abso
lutely lacking in it for the one
thing needful, that he was cut
to the quick and moved to much
gentle wrath. And then these
letters! They were fast becom
ing his Nemesis. He ate his
breakfast and watched with un
wonted pleasure some dust
motes dancing in a sunbeam,
and raising his eyes to follow
them, they unconsciously stray
ed farther out into the college
quad, where the dew was still
sparkling on every grass blade,
and shimmering on every flow
er.

turned to her basket a trifle

soul with a deal of sentiment
about her.

“Very well, dear, and Mrs.

her, while she discoursed to

had seized on her, and forced
her to the task.

CHAPTER II.
Not only the entire country
of —shire but even the whole
University of Cambridge had
been thrown into quite a whirl
of emotion by the marriage of
Henry Waring and Grace Sel-
wyn, the most unexpected ever
concocted in heaven or on earth.
A Senior Wrangler and a Fel
low of his college, who at
twenty-six, eats, drinks, and
sleeps mathematics, besides be
ing possessed of other devour
ing passions for certain of the
minor sciences, does not seem
a very fit subject for matrimony
with its petty follies and cares.
If one is, besides, the son of a
cynic and a book-worm, who
loathed and eschewed the sex
with bitter reason, and whose
own practical knowledge had
been gained chiefly through the
classics and the bedmakers, the
one of which appeals but little
tc one’s sense of propriety, the
other still less to one’s fleshy
sense, the prospect of a dom 38-
tic and patriarchal career must
seem as remote as it is undesir
able.
And yet Henry Waring found
himself, to his constant and in
creasing bewilderment, embark
ed on one almost before he al
together knew where he was.
The year previous to his mar
riage he bad suffered a good
deal from ennui. A favorite
theory in geology, over which
he had peered himself
gingerly, as he handled all this
variety of correspondence—the
village mathematician being an
unclean beast—but this letter
seemed somehow different, he
turned it over with growing in
terest, and even took the pains
to examine the postmark, then
he opened it and found a quite
different production from any
he had yet received.
First, on opening it, a curious,
indefinate scent struck on his
nostrils. He sniffed it up per
plexedly; some queer old mem
ories began to stir in him, and
he paused a moment to try and
classify them, but he could not,
so he set himself to examine the
contents of the missive.
The answer given to his prob
lem was accurate and the ac
companying remarks clear,
strong and to the point, writ
ten in a woman’s hand and
signed with a woman’s name,
“Grace Selwyn.”
That letter was answered be
fore the breakfast things were
cleared away, and certain fresh
problems enclosed which were
not sent in any other direction.
Many letters went and came
after that, containing problems
and their answers, always full
of that strange vague, delicious
scent, which seemed to waft it
self through the study and to
remain there, caught with the
dust motes in the sunbeam.
A longing and a yearing for
those little notes began to take
possession of Henry Waring and
to disturb his mind. Old memo
ries of the time when he wore
frocks and toddled, began to
haunt him, and his work was no
longer done by reflex action.
He consulted a doctor, but as
he only confided half his systems
to that scientific person, quite
suppressing the letters, the doc
tor felt rather out of it and pre
scribed quinine, which had no
effect whatsoever.
One morning the yearning for
a letter grew suddenly overmas
tering; and none came. This
was the climax. By a sudden
impulse which he never sic
ceeded in explaining to himself
on any satisfactory grounds,
Mr. Waring went to his bed
room, knelt down by his big
chest of drawers, and proceeded
to pack a little valise with ev
ery article he did not want, leav
ing out all those he did. Then
he steped into a cab and made
for the station.
Towards the close of the day
he presented himself at the door
of a queer old red-brick manor
house in Kent owned by a Col
onel Selwyn and his wife, and
asked simply for “Grace Sel
wyn.”
In three months time from
that day the two came down
the path hand in hand and step
ped out together on life’s jour
ney, and six monchs later,
through the death of a cousin,
Waring Park fell to them and
made up for the loss of the Fel
lowship.

Once during the argument in
a lawsuit, in which Lincoln
represented one party, the law
yer on the other side was a good
deal of a glib-talker, but not
reckoned as deeply profound or
much of a thinker. He would
say anything to a jury which
happened to enter his head.
Lincoln in his address to the
jury, referring to this, said:
“My friend on the other side
is all right, or would be all
right, were it not for the peculi
arity I am about to chronicle.
His habit—of which you have
witnessed a very painful speci
men in his arguement to you in
this case—of reckless assertion
and statements without
grounds, need not be imputed to
him as a moral fault, or as tell
ing of a moral blemish. He
can’t help it. For reasons
which, gentlemen of the jury,
you and I have not the time to
study here, as deplorable as
they are surprising, the oratory
of the gentlemen completely
suspends all action of his mind
The moment he begins to talk,
his mental operations cease. I
never knew of but one thing
which compared with my friend
in this particular. That was a
small steamboat. Back in the
days when I performed my part
as a keel boatman, I made the
acquaintance of a trifling little
steamboat which used to bustle
and puff and wheeze about the
Sangamon river. It had a five-
foot boiler and seven foot whis
tle, and every time it whistled
it stopped.”
A Napoleon of finance, who
formerly speculated in Chicago,
picked out a promising town in
Iowa and decided to “build it
up.” He moved to the town,
organized a number of stock
companies, started a bank, de
posited all the money of the
companies in his own bank and
then went into bankruptcy.
Some of the principal sufferers
went to his house to learn
whether anything could be sav-
ed from the wreck. They found
him in a magnificent apartment,
and he was very sorry for their
misfortune.
“I regret very much, gentle
man,” said he, “but 1 have
practically nothing left. My
wife owns this house and some
business property, but I have
nothing. Believe me, if I could
do such a thing. I would give
you my body and let it bedivid
ed ampng you, for there is no
thing else I can give.”
“What’s that proposition?”
asked a rather deaf old gentle
man, who was standing at the
back of the mournful company.
“He says,” explained one of
the sufferers, “that we can take
his body and divide it up among
us.”
“Well, in that case,” said the
deaf old gentleman, in a loud
voice, “I speak for his gall.”
