I GREAT GOD | I PAN I KEITH GORDON Trenham arrived at Cantico at 1:30. At 2 Norton's silent, efficient serving nfhn was formally introducing him to the Hutch?his for a month?a squat, oriental looking building standing in the tempered shade of the pines and larches and containing all those touches of home comfort usually ascribed to feminine hands, but found in the modern bachelor quarters. At 2:30, his tweed suit changed for a more informal costume, he emerged from the low, broad doorway, stirred by a pagan desire to get 4^>8er still to nature, oat Into the dim, cloisters! places of the woods, where he might float dellclously upon a sen of silence, whose calm was unbroken save by the ripple of n bird note or the snapping of a twig. "I say, this is great!" burst from his lips luxuriously ns he drew in long whiffs of the suave air with its warm, elusive scent of sweet growing things. "This Is life. This Is what roan was meant for." As he ceased speaking he lifted his face to the soft breeze that caressed liis cheek like n spirit hand and thought unflutterlng things of civilization. What nfter all did this boasted condition mean? What but crowded cities with stone where turf should be, the roar of trains, shrieking of whistles, whizzing of autos, clattering of hoofs and the griud, grind, grind of ofliee life. As he thought of it now, looking as he was straight into nature's smiling, inscrutable face, it all seemed supremely ridiculous. Fauns and satyrs, hamadryads nnd naiads had Ihkmi wiser. At the end of an hour's wulk he found that the path ended abruptly at a grassy knoll. For n few moments Trenham gazed with an appreciation too deep for words. Then, with a sigh of contentment, lie sank down upon the thick grass and stretched himself out, his bend rcstlmr in the hollow of Ids clasped bands, bis eyes narrowed to slits like gatekeepers who would say to the beauties about them, "One at a time, please." And presently the slits became narrower and narrower. "Spring." be murmured musingly, "is just bursting into young sumiuerhood." Then his lips twitched slightly, and lie tried again. "That apple tree looks like some sweet, sedute (junker lady." He stretched his eyes open wide, as If to fling off some irresistible Influence. "Good Lord, am I a poet after all?" he demanded comically of the shadowy self that always attends us, but never so palpably as In solitudes. And then he smiled and lay staring up Into the great arch of the blue above him. Again the silts grew narrow, almost imperceptible. A line from a poem learned in youth trailed across his mind, "tirent I?nn is dead.".. "It's a lie." he murmured drowsily. "Grent Pan Is not dead. Groat Pan"? The murmur ended in a knowing smile, the smile of one who has learned for a certainty what fools most mortals be, and that In turn faded into gravity. Trenhain slept. o * "It's a regular sleeping beauty of a place?bus a breathless, charmed air, as If It were under a spell. I believe there are fairies or godlings to be discovered." So lind Nntlea Duke written to a friend soon after coming to Cantico fnr til ft Oil 111 mar 'ThneA #a*w houses in the region ? n half dozen within twenty miles?and her first impression of the country was only deepened by her long, solitary strolls. She had a mystical feeling that there was something to be discovered?some secret that she was forever on the verge of. Godilng, gnome or fairy, she fancied, might rise in her path at any moment without causing her any surprise, and so it was without dismay that she stopped short at the edge of the wood one day upon finding her favorite spot already occupied. For the fraction of a second she half believed. Then she wholly disbelieved. No godlings would appear in tan oxfords. Saudnls were the utmost one could concede! Still, as a mortal the sleeping youth before her was worth consideration. A glance told her that, and she cautiously drew a step nearer. He lay so that the spreading branch of a tree shaded his face, his soft linen hat tossed on the grass beside him, thus revealing the thick dark hair that looked as if it might have curled had not Its owner sternly refused to hear of auch a thing. His features reminded her strangely of certain marbles she had seen, they wero so massive, yet so finished, and with girlish attention to dress she bestowed on approving glance on bis white negligee shirt, the iMTes rouea up to tue elbow, and the duck trousers to match. If lie was not ffodllng he was at least n most attractive mortal. Daringly she stood and gazed at him, tingling with the fear that he might awaken, yet too interested to turn away. The blue of her eyes was matched by the color of the linen gown she wore. Around her neck a dandelion chain dangled like a cable of rich gold. 1 With a sudden movement she lifted the latter, breaking off a part of It and fastening it Into n wreath. Again she hesitated. Then, with her nnderlip held between her teeth In a way that abowed two very merry dimples, she CaPtCMcTtayplyli rOWi ^mTngvel ope, scrawled something on nn unused sheet and tore It off. Almost holding her breath, she tiptoed nearer. He was sleeping very heavily. The scrap of paper she had twisted Into the wrenth. At last s^ie stood within an arm's length of his head. She listened excitedly, but the long, even breaths reassured her. Slowly she bent over; lower and lower the wreath descended until it rested on the crisp dark hair. With ihe braced air of a person who feels that ho is likely to be shot ht any moment she straightened up and waited, but he did not move. Then, with a last ndmirlng glance, for he looked like a veritable flower crowned god now, she fled back along the path and In a moment had disappeared in the woods. Trenhatn woke from a slumber so deep that his very Identity was lost. I^ong, lazy shadows darkened the swnrd about him. Who?what?where? Something pressed upon ids forehead, nnd Instinctively his hand went up, his fingers groping engerly for some meaning in the soft, damp mass thnt met their touch. Then they closed upon the object nnd brought it around where his eyes could help. lie stared at It In silence for n mo I mcnt. "Crowned, l?y Jove!" wus his dazed exclamation when lie at Inst found speech. The scrap of paper caught Ills eye, and-he detached it, smoothed it out and looked at it with absorbed curiosity. "I salute thee, great Pan," was scribbled thereon In a girlish hand. And at the words a light dawned upon lilm. Who was she. and what was she like? How strange that she, too, should have been thrilled with the same weird sense of the nearness of pagan gods! The dandelions were curling up like tired children, but Trenhntn carried the wreath home as carefully as If it had been of the flowers of Kden, and he smoked many pipes that night in the soft gloom of Norton's roomy porch, wondering how and when and where they would meet and whether her eyes were blue or gray and whether she was tall or short, dark or fair, his lady of dreams. Afterward he plumed himself upon having recognized her instantly, though If the truth were known it required no great perspicuity. Asked to dinner by the Stantons?the nearest neighbors, though three miles away?be had accepted on the chance of getting some clew to the young lady, j And lie did. At the sight of him the only other guest, a young woman with the bluest of eyes, gave a startled but pleased look that flashed into her eyes and out again so quickly that he would scarce have been sure save for the slight, flush Hint hacked up his theory. Later on it transpired that she was the ' one girl in the neighborhood, and matrons, Trenhntn shrewdly argued, would scarcely l>e up to such pranks or even lutiiaiuii in me grinii gou fail. , For tlio rest there arc people who are still scandalized when they remember the queeroess of the Trenham-Duko wedding.

During the fnmous Fenian raids in the seventies of tlie last century Colonel Albert Clarke of Boston went to the Fenian camp near the Canadian border. The camp of the Canadian ( troops wns but a short distance away, i One day Clarke, wearing a iiglit colored stovepipe hat, was strolling along j through the fields a mile or so from , camp. Suddeuly the report of a rifle , rang out, and his hat fell to the ground. Clarke picked it up and jammed It down more tightly over his head. Another report sounded In the opposite db rectlou, and Clarke then realized that I mm9 um%> if ?tn iuu tuuoc hi iuc anug. ne i started to run and the bullets began to fly thicker and faster.

No more for us the brimming wine Or other follies In that line; Down virtue's path we gayly start Perched high upon the water cart. Wo see the folly of our ways And swear that all our futuro days Shall be on lines quite different cast From those that marked our wabbly past; In fact, wo rather think that wo May buy a halo, c. o. d.

Peanut peddlers look on the police as a sort of necessary evil. It does seem at times as though the fool killer was most shamefully neglecting his work. While the mikado writes poetry, he is not a true poet, for he has never had the thrill that comes with a return slip from a publisher declining, with thanks. While Christmas comes but once ft year, we may be thankful that pay day drops around oftener. A man can always boo the point of his own jokes without putting on specs. It is a mighty doubtful compliment to tell a man that he is a good judge of whisky. One of the bets that a wise man will overlook is a bet on a sure tip on a horse race.

Iu liis capacity as judge Lord Brampton always insisted on the imperative demand that every case should be investigated in its minutest details. Upon small points the great issue of a case depends. As exemplifying this Lord Brampton cites a curious case thnt came before liim on the western circuit: "A solicitor was charged with forging the will of a lady, which devised to him a considerable amount of her property, but as the case proceeded it became clour to me that the will was signed after the lady's death and then with a dry pen held in the hand of the deceased by the accused himself while he guided it over a signature which he had craftily forged. A woman was present when this was done, and as she had attested the execution of the will she was n necessary witness for the prisoner, and In examination In chief she was very clear indeed that It wns by the hand of the deceased that the will was signed and that she herself had seen the deceased sign it. Suspicion only existed as to what the real facts were until this woman went into the box, and then a scene highly dramatic occurred in her cross examination. After getting an admission that the will was signed in the bed, with the prisoner near by, the woman was asked: " 'Did be put the pen into her hand?' ?Yes." " 'And nssi3t her while she slgued the will?' " 'Yes.' " 'IIow did ho assist her?' " 'By raising licr in the bed and supporting her when he had raised her.' " 'Did ho guide her hand?' " 'No.' " 'Did he touch her hand at nil?' " 'I think he did just touch her hand.' "'When he did touch her hand was she dead?' "At tliis last question the woman turned terribly pale, was seen to falter and fell in n swoon on the ground k aud so revenled the truth, which she had come to deuy."?I.ondou Mn\l. RICE TABLE. The Principal Dlnh at the Midday Meal In Java. In Java, as in most really warm countries, it is customary to rise early and < to take a cup of tea or coffee, together with a biscuit and some fruit, immediately on leaviug one's bed. This is followed by a more substantial breakfast, but the first really serious meal is served at half past 12 o'clock and is the equivalent of the French "dejeuner a la fourchette" or the Anglo-Indian tiffin. This meal is called rice table? "rystafel"?from the principal dish, a very elaborate curry, in the preparation of which the Malay cooks are especially skillful. Tho peculiarity of the rice table consists in the number and variety of dishes presented. From these dishes ttio guest has to select tbe materials which, together with the rice upon the soup plate before him, are to const!* tute his curry. It is also as well to know beforehand that oife is not required to lunch solely on curry, but that the rice table is succeeded by courses of ordinary luncheon dishes. It is a case, therefore, of "embarras de ( rlchesses." \ The second danger is that of making up one's curry "not wisely, but too well," and leaving neither appetite nor capacity for the beefsteak or for any of the other solid dishes which subsequently appear and which under these circumstances only produco a feeling of mingled horror and consternation. It is then that one suddenly realizes that the rice table is merely a sort of tremendous "liors d'oeuvre." There are two dangers to be avoided. In the ilrst place, It Is quite possible, In spite of the number of the dishes presented singly, to sny nothing of an octagonal tray containing a separate chutney in ench of its nine compartments, to get no lunch nt all, for nothing is easier than after saying "neln" to a succession of frivolous compounds to dismiss the one solid and palatable dish.?Pearson's.
