There wns Borne one outsldo of Ma
tJor Crofoot's olllco door.
A knock, knock, knock.
"Come right In!"
"I'm looking for the Major Crofoot
thnt lins all sorts of sood things to In
vest In," sold the caller.
"Then you linvc come to the right
place. Have a choir."
"Thanks. Now, then, I don't wish
to tako up your valuable time. Ilavo
you got anything good on hand? I
want something perfectly safe that
will return 0 or 10 per cent on the
money."
"My dear sir, I have got half n dozen
of tlio best things going. When you
Bpcak of 0 or 10 per cent dividends it
mnkes mo smile. I don't deal In such
small fish. Anything I tako hold of
must poy 30 per .cent or I drop it"
"Good Lordl" ejaculated tho caller ns
he sat up.
"Thirty per cent at lcHt, sir. What
would you say to stockB paying dollar
for dollar?"
"But I'm willing to take 40 per
cent," replied tho man. "Geo whiz,
but what man can nsk for more than
that?"
"Very fair, very fair," loftily replied
tho major, "but nothing to brag of.
Being you havo come direct to the of
flco I wnnt to pick out something ex
tra. Let mo see. The Universal Glass
Byo company paid 00 per cent divi
dends two years ago, but last year
dropped down to 30. ty will bo still
less than that this year on account of
hard times. Lots of ono eyed peoplo
stick a patch over tho eyo and let It
go nt that If you'd como In n month
ngo I could havo let you lu on the
ground floor of tho Magic Rat and
Mouse Destroyer. Tho stock went llko
wlldflrc, and tho last was sold at $200.
Wo figure It will pay 400 per cent div
idends for the next twenty years."
"And 1 can't get In. Thunder, but
why didn't I know nbout It! But you
must havo Bomethlng for me," lnslstctl
the caller In anxious tones.
"Let mo see! Let mo see! IIow ub
Bentmlndcd I nm tilts morning. Just
as you knocked I was making up tho
Incorporation papers for my last and
best scheme. IJ's ono that'll lay over
nil others. I was saving It to begin
the year on."
"Good, good! What Is It? By
George, old fellow, If you put mo on to
something good you shan't lose by It!"
"You know what delicacies turtlo
soup and turtlo Bteuk aro considered?"
"I do."
"And you know tho high price frogs'
legs bring?"
"Yes."
"Well, that's the basis of tho Great
Western company, Just organized. Wo
nro going to rent nine square miles of
Lnko St. Clair flats and ralso our frogs
and turtles and con thorn on tho spot
They will bo ennned In champaguo,
and the labels on Uio cans will bo
handsomo enough to framo and hang
In uny one's parlor. Threo turtlo
steaks and two dozen frogs' legs every
can. Killing and canning tako place
every day. Wo Bhall control tho mar
ket of tho world."
"What dividends do you flguro on?"
"Weill last night I was figuring on a
straight 100 per cent, but this morning
I thought I ought to make a llttlo al
lowance. Many turtles dlo of home
sickness, you know, and a certain per
cent of tho frogs nro bound to Jump
tho wire fences and got away. To bo
very safo and conservative I hovo put
tho dividends nt 05 per cent I think
that Is n rather neat figure, don't you?"
"Great! Great Scott, I've been lond
lng money at 0 per cent!"
"IIow how much were you thinking
of Investing?" nsked tho major In a
voice that trembled In splto of himself.
"Twenty thousand dollars perhaps."
"And you you will pay something
down to secure tho stock?"
"A hundred dollars. Hero's a check
I'll lndorsooverto you, nnd I'll como In
tomorrow nnd pay tho bolanco nnd get
tho stock. By George, but I'm In luck!
Just think of getting hold of somo
Jthlng paying 05 per cent dividends!
Why, my wife will think me crazy
when I tell her about this. You won't
let Morgan buy tho whole thing up and
Jreezo mo out, will you?"
"No. You Bliall havo tho stock."
"And I'll remember you. I'll buy
Vou a pearl pin out of the first divi
dend. If you want, when you get
started, I'll show you how to catch
frogs for canning. There's a peculiar
way of getting hold of them by ono
hind leg. Nlnety-llvo per cent! I can't
help but dwell on It!"
"Yes, It's a good thing," replied tho
major ns ho shoved tho folded check
Into his vest pocket In a careless way.
"You will bo In tomorrow?"
"Sure, Mike! If I was u Frenchman
I'd kiss you for luck, but ns I'm not
we'll shako hanfls ami I'll say to, ta.
Tomorrow! Nlnety-Hvo per cent!
Whoop!"
When ho haft gono tho major walked
up nnd down to calm his raging heart.
It didn't seem possible. lie couldn't
credit IiIb good luck. Then at Inst ho
took tho check from his pocket and
looked nt It to bco what bank It was
drawn on. Ills eyes opened wide, and
ho uttered n moan and Htnggercd to a

After Bupper, when Deacon Dolby
took tho kerosene can and started for
tho store, he left Mrs. Dolby singing
the hymn that sho had n homo over
there. She hadn't been so cheerful In
many weeks.
When tho deacon returned an hour
later there was no singing. The lump
on tho kitchen tablo was turned low
down, and tho house seemed to bo de
sertcd.
'Gono over to Brown's," said the dea
rnn to himself as ho turned up the
wick.
Then his eye caught sight of a note,
rind ho half groaned.
Tho note wns brief and concise. It
read:
I have heard all about you and tho bull
calf, and you will find my drowned body In
tho plcklo barrel down cellar.
"Nice plcklo she'll mnke:" grunted
the deacon us ho pi-ceeded to tho sit
ting room and turned up tho lamp
there. Ho had brought with him four
big apples.
It was rather foolish of Mrs. Dolby
to choose tho plcklo route to that bet
ter luud when there wero so many bet
ter ones, ho thought.
Ho had finished his Urst npple nnd
begun peeling the second when Mrs.
Dolby appeared In tho kitchen door
nnd In a hollow vo!c,o exclaimed:
"Samuel Dolby, tho dead Bpeaks to
you!"
Samuel didn't Jump out of his chair.
Ho didn't even give n start of surprise.
"Samuel, ono day last fall, when you
wero pulling tho carrots, n man came
ulong tho road with n bull calf. Do
you remember It? '

According to social usage, women in

followed by an empty henrso drawn

A man, who had been sick, told a
friend that ho was being treated by a
certain physician.
"Don't you know," said tho friend,
"thnt that doctor allows all his patient?

"After n llttlo talk with him you

It was true, but tho deacon wasn't

was where you butted lu. You never
owned n bull calf In your life, but you

Tho deacon had finished his third

shut and pocketed his Jockkulfo and
gavo n sort of gulp to signify that he
wns full.
"I thought I could dlo and not say
anything about It," continued Mrs.

"I havo dono my duty, Samuel, and

on you. mid so I will admit that I havu
heard of coses whero men wero half
crazy about bull calves. That may
hovo been what nlled you that day. If
you think It was, why why"
Tho deacon may havo thought so,
and ho may have repudiated the sug

old hend on his shoulders and main
tained silence oxcopt for n yawn or two.
"If you wero bull calf crazy then 1
might forgive you If you got down on

Tho deacon may havo thought It a

was a long minute of silence, and then;
"I don't know but what It Is my duty
to stay horo on earth, Samuel. When a
husband gots to running after bull
calves, who should watch ont for him
