Tou poor baby. ha said, "you're dead

He rose, a little roughly, and helped
her to her feet
When they reached the little hut.
Tommy said:
"Now, you turn In there and make
yourself comfy. Good night"
"Good night," she said, and went Into
the hut.
Tommy stood looking at the fire. He
stood fur nulte a ling time in a deep
reverie. Celeslla's voUe brought his out
of It
"Aren't you coming?" she said.
He turned and looked her In the eyes.
What wes she? Was she the most In

or we she something quite different.'

' eves, or sl-nnlv an Idiot? His heart sud-
' denly began to beat hard and fast
And toward that thestiical. beautiful,
and entrancing figure In the door of tha
hut, all sliver In the moonlight, he began
to walk slowly.
In his hiding, place close at hand, no
word or motion had been lost on Prof.

aa a boy smile.
"Not room enough for two In there,'
he said. "But If you get frightened or
want anything, just call. I'll head. And
.good night"
It semed darker when she had closed
the door of the hut and no longer gleamed
in the fire light Prof. Btllllter lowered
hi rlfl with a suppressed sigh 'or re
lief and sank down among tha bushes.
And' when Tommy, healthfully tired. ha4
fallen Into a sound sleep, he wlthdrev
to a distance with hi followers, ud
passed a night of supreme d'ioomfort
upon the hard ground. Celestia eras safe
In Tommy's rare, and there waa no Ua
separating them before morning.
Celestia dreamed all night not of that
heaven from. which ah had recently
come, not of the wicked world she was
to save, but of Tommy. Dreaming, It
seemed Ilk she waa neither a child, nor
maid, nor a goddess, but young woman
whose Imagination had been strongly
worked upon by a young man.
Bright and early ah waked and step
ped from the hut Into the cold, still
Adirondack dawn. Tommy, his feet to
the fir that had almost died, still slept
Eh knelt by hln and studied hi face at
leisure.' Presently she touched hi hand
cautiously with the tip of her finger and
found that it waa cold. Then, happy as
a child to be of service, ah put woud
on th fire and blew the ember Into
flame. Btill Tommy did not wake, and
she knelt by htm onoe mora and. with a
laugh.' bowed her lovely head and kissed
blra.
Tommy was dreaming of her. She had
promised to marry him aa soon as hs
had killed th horrible dragon that lived
under the hill Tommy, after a draper
ate battle. In whl h he was armed only
with a ran-opener, had Just aui-.fed-d

hill to claim hi reward from th waiting

and he waked, and knew that h had
been, klssef.
His first word were of reproof.
"Celestia, dear," he said, "you mustn't
do that"
"Mustn't kiss you? '
"Of course not" '
Her great eye assumed an Injured
look.
('1n heaven," she said, "an angel always
wake me with a kiss."
Tommy was wide awake now.
"What kind of an angel?" he Inquired
with a kind of cold suspicion In his voice.
"Oh," she . said ' carelessly, "any one
that happened to pass by, and thought
that I had slept long enough. But then
Celestia liked to be kissed. Don't hu
mans? (
"Tea," . said Tommy, "sometimes. I
liked It Only among us it's a sacred
sort of thing, and grown-up human re

for children who are always rather heav
enly." Aa he spoke, he began to prepare
breakfast, and Celestia smiled upon him.
but not as If she was very much Inter
ested In what ha had said, or Indeed un
derstood It. Suddenly she said:
"I want to cook "
Tou do, do you? Do you know how?"
"I'v watched you."
Tommy rose with a laugh. i
"Then you shall." he said, "and I'll
have a swim to wake, me up."
"A swim?"
"You do It In th water." said Tommy
gravely, and he made swimming motions
with hi arms.
"Oh, but I'd rather swim, too, than
cook," said Celestia, and she prepared
to follow him. But Tommy shook Ills
head.
"Somebody has to cook," he said, "and
I was tha first to think about swimming
nd so it would be selfish of you"
"Tou were ntoer to me yesterday," said
ICelcitla, and she turned with a little
'cry of astonishment to tha kettle, which
'had just boiled over.
Tommy hurried away chuckling, and
just before he came to the Narrow Island
j beach he stripped and hung hi clothe
, on a tree-llmb. and then he swung hi
; arm about wildly Ilk a cab driver, and
leaped and ran up and down to gut his
circulation going, and then with an ath
lete's soora of pain and cold, he ran into
the water until It was waist deep, and
then dove.
The Outsider Often

When I waa a farmer lad I noticed that
whenever we bought a new cow and
turned her In the pasture with the herd
there was a general inclination on th
part of th bunch to mak the new cow

They would hook
her away from tha
salt, chase her
from tha water,
and ' tha long- '

Men are animals just a much a are
cows, horse and pigs, and they manifest
similar proclivities.
The Introduction of a new man into an
Institution always cause a small panto
of resentment, especially if he be a per-'
son of soma power.

teacher haa to fight hla way to overcome
the opposition.
la the lumber camp th ncacomer
would do well to take the initiative. Ilka
that little black max, and meet the first
black look with a short -arm job
But tn a bank, department store or
railroad offlsa thla cannot be done. Bo
the neat best thing Is to endure, snd wla
out by aa attention to business to which
th place is unaccustomed. .
Unless he haa th power to overawe
everything th more uncomfortable will
be his position, until gradually time

The Idea of civil service reform pro
motion for the good men in your employ
rather than hiring new ones is a rule
which looks well on paper, but Is a fatal
policy If- carried out to th letter.
The business that is not progressive Is
sowing th seed of its own dissolution.
tdfe Is a movement forward, and all
thing In nature that - are not evolving
Into something Letter are preparing to
return into their constituent elements. .
One general rule for progress ,ln big
business concerns Is th Introduction of
new blood. Tou must keep step with th
business world. If you lsg . behind . the
outlaw that hang on th flank of com
merce will cut you out and ' take you
captive, just aa th wolves II la wait for
th sick cow of the plains.'
To keep yur columns marching you
must introduce new method,' new in
spiration, and seise upon the best that
others have invented or discovered.
Tha great railroads of America have
eiolved together. No one of them haa
an appliance or a method that is much
beyond the rest- If It were not for this
interchange of men and Idea some rail
roads would still be using the link and
pin. and snake-head . would be a com
mon a In the year lSti.
The railroad manager who knows his
business is ever on the lookout for ex
cellence among his men, and he promotes
those who give an undivided service. But
beside this, he hire a strong man occa
sionally from the outside and promote
him over everybody. Then out come the
hammer.
But this make but little difference to
your competent manager. If a place Is
to be filled, and h has no one on his
payroll big enough to mi It, he hires an
outsider.
That la right and well for every on
concerned. The new life of many a firm
date from the day they hired the new
foreman. ,
Communities that intermarry raise's
fin crop of scrub and th result is th
am in business ventures. On of Amer
ica' largest concern failed for a tidy
um of five million or so a few year
ago. Just through, dogged policy that
extended over a period of fifty year,
of 'promoting cousins, uncle and aunts,
whose only claim of efficlenoy was that
they had been on the pension roll for a
long time. This way lie dry rot
If you are a business man and have sj
position of responsibility to be filled look
carefully among your old helpers for si
man to promote. But if you haven't a
man big enough to fill the place do not
put In a little one for the sake of pesos.
Go outside and find a man and hlra
him.' Never mind the salary If hs can
wat tha pill; wage are always relative
to earning power.
A for civil . service rule rule are
made to be broken. And aa for the long-t
horned pnes who will attempt to make;
life miserable for your new employe, m
patient with them. It la the privilege of
everybody to do a reasonable amount oi
kicking, especially if the person has been,
a long time with one concern and hai
received many benefits.
But if at tha last worst comes ta worst
do not forget that you yourself, ars at
the head of -the oonoern. If it falls you
get the- blame. And should the anvil
chorus become so persistent that there
1 danger of discord taking the place oj
harmony, stand by your new man, eve
though it Is necessary to give th bluj
envelope to the antediluvians.
Bo, here la the argument: Promote youl
deserving men. but do . not be afraid U
hire' a keen outsider. He helps everybody!
even tha kicker, by setting a paoe. Also
If you disintegrate and go down In dsfeab
the kicker will have to skirmish aroun
for new lobs. Isn't that so?
