Thus a coal dealer whom I used to know shouted one afternoon to an employe who waa driving out of the yard: “ 'Hold on there, Jim! That coal can’t have been weighed. It looks a trifle large for a ton to me.’ “Jim shouted back: Phis ain’t a ton, boss. It’s two tons.’ “ *Oh, all right,’ said the dealer, In a mollified tone. ‘Beg your pardon.

During this ley weather no house hold should he without It In tic, Me. Me ilm (Copyrighted, 19<M, by XV. B. Hearst.) Among the landseekers who tilled the car with noisy gossip and tobacco smoke, two young men sat together each absorbed in his own thoughts. Both were magnificent specimens of western youth. One was a little taller than the other, not so strongly built, but his broad shoulders and erect fig ure, surmounted by a well moulded head, gave him the look of a “husky man. In spite of his half-shaven face, the dark bronzed complexion, with features that would have been alto gether too line had it not been for a cruel scar half visible under his slouch hat that marred the high forehead beyond repair—in spite of sloucny dress and red bandanna, he might al most be called handsome. The other, his comrade, was quite the opposite, {with gray eyes, quick with intelligence 'and a twinkle that betokened good •humor, while his large, regular feat ures were marked with the generous, easy going temperament that the other did not possess. Did you ever study [faces in a street car or a railway train, where every man was a stranger to you? The constrasts and individuali ties are a never ending source of enter tainment. “Will you get married, Jim,' drawled .the good natured one, tiring of silence, “if you locate a goo un yonder?’ “I can’t say as to that, Bert. Some one else might make a better guess at that. Ain’t you? I’ve heard a raft of talk ‘bout you and--” ! “Bessie Blake? So you have heard that, have you? Now, I ain’t forgotten, Jim, what a good feller you were when we were kids on Turkey creek together, and I’ll tell you something straight. I want to marry her all right, but I haln’t never said nothing 'cause—well, 'cause I ain’t fit and I’m poor." The train jolted along noisily and the speaker was embarrassed by the pause that followed, so that he finally turned his flushed face toward his old schoolmate. That young man was looking meditatively at the car celling as he puffed away at his pipe. He was thinking, as afterward developed, of the little school house down on Turkey creek. He could almost see the small, low seats with high, straight backs, one of which was occupied by a black haired little chap with eyes that wan dered just across the aisle where Bes sie sort, and a jolly little towhead whom he called Jimmie. Jim never had a serious thought then, and now he was thinking nonchalantly enough of a very solemn topic. “You’re right, old man. I don t like the way our folks speak of the ‘old woman’ around the place, and I always made up my mind my wife would nev er be 'my woman’ ’Tain’t right. Wom an Is a delicate creature, Jimmie,” he continued, as If talking to the towhead on the old play ground. "You ain’t In love, be you, Bert?” remarked the other curiously. "Yeu have good Idea for a man who never thought about It, eh?” “I ain’t lucky enough, Jimmie. I’ll be a long time flndin’ anybody’ll have me.” “Now you’re jest talking, old man Bert. I know’ you. When we were little fellows, do you call to mind that day you was married to—yes, by jinks, to Bessie Blake? I b’lleve you’re in love with her now, man; how you're red denin’ up. ’Taln’t no shame to you, fur she’s the prettiest gal In western Nebraska. Fess up.” "Of course, we all—but what’s the use, Jim, what's the use?” The dark head fell with apparent sleepiness on the back of the seat and he paused ab ruptly. “You’ve always been a lucky fellow, Jimmie,” he resumed at \ength. "You never studied a bit, yet yeu were ahead of ub all In ’rithmetlc, and I never saw such a fellow to spell us all down. Then you always made more money than I did. Betcher strike a good claim up In Rosebud.” “If I don’t I can’t ask Bessie Blake to have me, and chances are that that eastern feller’ll get her.” The train bumped along as if It had left the track and then slowed down almost to a stop. “I tell you, Bert,” exclaimed the other eagerly, “let’s make a grand lottery. We’ll team It against that eastern feller. If you get a claim I help you get her, and If I get a good one I get the gal. What d’ye say?” and the fair haired young giant laughed In his good natured way. “But Bessie ought to decide that, and not you nor me. Guess we better go It alone.” "Oh, go on, Bert. Let’s have some fun. P’raps we won’t either one of us get anything, anyway. It’s a go." "I’d rather say that the one who gets a good claim will have the first chance, and the other’ll give him lots of lee way. Ain’t that better for the girl?" "Done!" said Jim delightedly and chuckled with pleasure as be curled up In his seat and finally sank Into a doze. “You’ll get her all right, Jim, ’cause you’re always lucky, and I don’t be lieve the gal would have me anyway,” said Bert Watkins, as the two sepa rated at a little cross roads station out In the sandhills on their return from Bonesteel. The other broke Into one of his hearty laughs as he retorted, "'Twon't be my fault, Bert, If I do.” Bessie Blake was the pride of the ranchers for miles around, for didn’t she have an education in the seminary and wasn’t she just the same Bessie, riding the fastest horse and shooting the prairie chickens with the best of them, in spite of her years in the east? Her father, not rich, but well-to-do, with a large family to support. The girl possessed his generous, easy go ing nature, combined with the refine ment and grace of the little mother who was the inspiration of the Blake household. But she was a true child of the prairie and when she was not busy at the home in the twilight she would steal out on her favorite horse. Jiffy, and ride like the wind to the hill top to see the unrivalled western sun set. On this particular night she re mained a little longer than usual. She started rapidly homeward, taking the fences that Interposed with the grace and ease of a veteran rough rider. Just as she cleared a low rail fence her Stirrup gave way and she fell sud denly an a bunch of prairie grass, un hurt, her faithful horse shying to one side and then standing stock still al most like a human being In Intelli gence. ’’Miss Bessie, you ain’t hurt, axe you?” A little figure vaulted the fence, his horse remaining loose in the road outside, and stooping he looked into her white face anxiously. “It's me, Bert Watkins, Bess. You ain’t badly hurt, are you?” “Not a bit,” The girl smiled as her color struggled back into her round cheeks and she weakly threw back her blonde curls that drooped over the bixxad forehead and into the dark blue eyes. "I’m all right. Oh!" she ex claimed, “my ankle hurts Just a little, i ft but Ifll be nil right In n minute. There,” She stepped firmly on the sod and then paled again, fainting In his arms. Not uttering a word, he let her head rest gently on his knee while he thought of a hundred things to do for her If only he hud something to do them with. The pale face colored again and the eyes opened, and In the midst of the excitement something happened which startled the young lady, but did not frighten her. 'Bert. I heard you say that." she said mischievously, as she limped along at his side. Not a word from her companion. ”1 heard you and I felt that—that kiss.” "But I couldn’t help it. I was so glad you were all right, Bess.” ’’Do you know what It made ms think of. Why, that day we played you were young I.ochlnvar. Why haven’t you been to see me since you got back from the Rosebud?” she asked sternly. "I promised—I hadn’t time.” “Jim Welch had time and he wasn’t so blessed with leisure as some othei young man I know.” "You say he has been here? He's a fine fellow, Bess; a good man, and he’d make any woman a line hus band.” “Do you think so? I do too. And I'd just like to find a nice girl for him.” "He likes you and wants you,” said the young man reverently. "Me?” A charming laugh rippled over the prairie like the song of a ris ing lark. “I couldn’t, even though he •did get the finest claim In Rosebud.’* Then she drew back abashed. “He’s better than a hired man, Bess.” “But I’d rather have the hired man"— she started with a quick movement—"It I loved him.” He didn’t wait for any explanttons on his part, nor did he propose as they do In books; but his strong arms fairly lifted here from her feet as he ex claimed: “Then you do-” "I do,” she Interrupted, demurely. ”1 need a hired man, too. for I drew one of the best quarter sections In Rosebud myself, Bert Watkins, and now you’re In for a homestead for life.” '‘We'll prove up together,” he replied, softly, as they walked slowly toward the house. , Long as Sherlock Holmes. Cleveland Leader: Ex-Governor Long, of Massachusetts, is a political Sherlock Holmes. Not long ago he was at a county fair, when a farmer ap proached him. Governor Long stuck out his hand and said: "I'm glad to see you again, sir, glad to see you. How's your wife? And the boy?" All was right and accurate, and ths farmer beamed with pleasure. Gov ernor Long continued: “And say! How about the white horse? Still have him, I suppose?' The farmer beamed more than ever. "Wall, now! Who’d of thought you’d remember a little thing like that, gov‘ nor! Yes, I still got the old white hoss.’ When the farmer had passed out of hearing, a friend exclaimed: 'Say, governor, that 'wife and boy’ question was all right and safe. But how in the world did you know he had a white horse?” “Well," said Governor Long, “I'll tell you. I saw some white hairs on hlj coat and I took chances.” As’Explained. "How did he manage to do that?” asked the girl in the balcony as the comedian struck a match on his side whiskers. “Oh, that's dead easy,” answered her escort. “His whiskers are sandy.
