She was nothing If not generous in dealing with guests, and already her house was full. "Jimmy," she said to young Happle at the close of a festal evening as he and his cousin were preparing to ko out in the midnight rain, "it's a shame for you boys to walk a mile in the wet and wake up your family to get in. I heard you say you had forgotten your key. If you and Arthur can manage in a three-quarter bed you can stay here. All the other guest rooms are filled." Consequently they stayed. The , room was as charming as every other room in the big house and Arthur fell Into slumber after vociferously admir-I ing it. Young Happle stayed awake.: in the first place, Arthur's construe- j tion was of the sort that demands considerable- space fore, aft and broadcirut onrl Ti vvnfl fit oil roln^fnnt about taking it. He occupied tko three-quarter bed comfortably and spilled over the edges. Happle couid not help admiring himself for the clever way in which he poised on the extreme edge of the mattress after the fashion of a trapeze performer about to do a leap for life. Prodding? had no effect upon Arthur. Neither did verbal remonstrances. His slumber was as deep as the sea. Young Happle at last arose, He had determined to go home and let Arthur have the undisputed possession of the three-quarter* bed. Young Happle f^lt that he might just as well be walking the streets as suffering there. And i at the end of the walk was the goal j of his own bed. He could get in at a window or something. v^ujeuy niippjc Karueu unuaeii uuu, taking his shoes in his hand, tiptoed down the big corridors of the Matts mansion and descended the stairs. Noting approvingly that the hinges were perfectly oiled he shot the bolts, and, opening the big front door, stepped out. As he stood there for a moment blinking in the darkness there came a glare in his face and a large and muscular hand grasped him. "Come out of it!" said a voice. "Who the dickens are you?"'young Happle demanded, with indignation. "Haw, haw!" said the voice, derisively. "It is a joke, then? Who am I? Ask the sergeant who I am when you get to the station, my lad!" "See here," said young Happle, "I'm no burglar!" "Then who"?the voice was intensely polite?"may you be, with yer shoes in yer hands, a-sneaking out of a house at two in the morning, mak' 1-~ il U.. ing 110 more noise until n uuuujr i a libit ?" Young Happle opened his mouth and closed it again. It suddenly seemed preposterous to tell the truth. Supposing he should confide to the policeman that his cousin was large, and, not having rooifi in bed for slumber, he had decided to arise and gc home in the rain? He could in fancj hear the jeers of this disagreeable officer. Still? "Y* see," broke in the voice, "y' see, yeh can't frame up an excuse at all! It's lucky Mr. Matts tipped me off to watch his place special this summer, with all the burglaries there is goin' on! Have yeh any of the family jools about yeh, now, I'd like to know?" "Get out!" young Happle 'said, fiercely, as the hand slid into his pocket. Then he told his story. "Ring the bell and rouse the house if you don't believe me," he said, Inclosing his recital. " 'Tis likely Fd be wakin' 'em all up with a fool story like the one you've been telling* me!" said the policeman. "Well, if you won't do that," said young Happle, wearily, "come on with me to my own home and let them identify me!" "I don't believe you," declared the officer, firmly. "But it's on my beat an' I'll humor you." Through the rain they plodded the interminable distance to young Happle's home and up to the front door the policeman marched him. "I?I haven't any key!" young Hap' ? Li VI pie Diurtea out, aner searcuiug uio pockets. "I?I forgot It!" The policeman gave a good imitation of a man whose suspicions have been justified. "I knew it!" he chuckled. "Were you pinln' for a walk that you took me clear up here in the rain, I'd like to know? None of that, now!" Young Happle had reached desperately for the door bell. "Get a crowd of people here and then break away when the excitement is going on! I know your kind! You come along!" Back they splashed through the rain, the policeman triumphant, young Happle too angry to speak. He was soaked to the skin and he loathed the world. The dawn was breaking when he at last got Into communication with the Matts house. Arthur arrived at the station at eight. He looked disgustingly comfortable and oiiwotto/J Mo rnoopH and be* I UC DUi T %sj VU Uiw * V.QQ WW ? draggled cousin with great enjoyment "Now you mention it," he told young Happle, "that three-quarter bed was more roomy after you left"?Chicago Daily News.

' Extensive ravages are often com- ^ mitted by seaweed spores In (oyster a beds in a very curious fashion. The p weed grows on the shell of the oys ter and is of an oval s^pe, sojid at first and afterward filled, with water. It often attains the size of a * hen's egg or even of a man's fist, li Left uncovered by the tide, it splits and loses its water. This is replaced j] by air, which is imprisoned by the next rise of the tide. The seaweed now acts as a balloon, raises the oys- 8 ter from the bottom and floats with s it out to sea. Hundreds of thou- g sands of oysters are thus lost. v ? The Biggeat Drug Store. The largest chemist's shop in the ^ world is to be found neither in Lon- n don nor in New York, but in Mos- a cow.
