Here the little Bush girl came run
ning to say that the horses would
stand no longer, and, still breathing
out vengeance against her old adver
sary, she labored toward the cart.
Shaking hands and affectionately kiss
ing Em, she was with some difficulty
drawn up. Then slowly the cart rolled
away, the good Boer woman putting
her bead out between the sails to smile
and nod. Em stood watching it for a
time. Then as the sun dazzled her
eyes she turned away. There was no
use in going to sit with Gregory. He
liked best sitting there alone, staring
across the green "karroo," and till the
maid had done churning there was
nothing to do, so Em walked away to
the wagon house and climbed on to
the end of Waldo's table and sat there,
swinging one little foot slowly to and
fro, while the wooden curls from the
plane heaped themselves up against
her black 'print dress.
"Waldo," she said at last, "Gregory
has given me the money he got for the
wagon and oxen, and I have 50 be
sides that once belonged to some one.
I know what they would have liked
to have done with IL You must take
it and go to some place and study for a
year or two."
"No, little one, I will not take it." he
said as he planed slowly away. "The
time was when I would have been
very grateful to any one who would
have given me a little money, a little
help, a little power of gaining knowl
edge. But now I have gone so far
alone I may go on to the end. I don't
want It. little one."
"Why Is it always so, Waldo always
long for them and pray for them, we
would give all we have to come near to
them, but we never reach them. Then
at last, too late. Just when 'we don't
want them any more, when all the
sweetness Is taken out of them, then
they come. We don't want them then."
she said, folding her hands resignedly
on her little aprcn. After awhile she
added: "I remember once, very long

mother had a workbox full of colored
reels. I always wanted to play with
them, but she would never let me. At
last one day she said I might take the
box. I was so glad I hardly knew what
to da I ran round the house and sat
I down with it on the back steps, but
! when I opened the box all the cottons
were taken out."
j She sat -for awhile longer till the

! bnnse. Then Em nrenared to sliD off
I the table, but first she laid her little
hand on Waldo's. He stopped his plan-
banns to the minister. We are going

Waldo lifted her very gently from
the table. He did not congratulate her.
Perhaps he thought of the empty box.

! out, and soon her clear voice came
J ringing out through the back windows
1 as she sans the '"Blue Water" to her-
self and washed the butter.
Waldo did vnot wait till she returned.
1 Perhaps he had at last really grown
' weary of work; perhaps he felt the
j wagen house chilly (for he had shud
dered two or three times), though that
j was hardly likely in that warm sum
I mer weather, or perhaps, and most
probably, one of his old dreaming fits
had come upon him suddenly. He put
j his tools carefully together, ready for
! tomorrow, and walked slowly ouh At
j the side of the wagon house there was
a wcrld of bright sunshine, and a hen
with her chickens was scratching
among the graveL Waldo seated him
self near them with his back against
the red brick wall. The long after
noon was half spent, and the "kopje"
was Just beginning to cast Its shadow
over the round headed yellow, flowers
that grew between It and the farm
house. Among the flowers the white
butterflies hovered, and on the old
kraal mounds three white kids gambol
ed, and at the door of one of the huts
an old gray headed Kaffir woman sat
oa tbe ground mending her mats. A
balmy, restful peacefulaess seemed to
relgu everywhere. Even the old hen
seemed well satisfied. She scratched
among the stones and called to her
chickens when she found a treasure
and all. the . while clucked to herself
'with Intense Inward satisfaction. Wal
do as he sat with his knees drawn up to
his chin and his arms folded on them
looked at it all and smiled. An evil
world, a deceitful, treacherous, mirage
like world, it might be, but a lovely
j world for all that, and to sit there
1 gloating in the sunlight was perfect.
I There are only rare times when a
man's seal can see Nature. - So long as
any passion holds its -revel there, the
eyes are holden that should not see her.
Go out. If you will, and walk alone on
the hillside in the evening, but If jour
favorite child lies ill at home, or your
over comes tomorrow, or at your heart
there lies a scheme for the holding of
wealth, then you will return as you
went out you will have seen nothing
for Nature, ever, like the old Hebrew
God. cries out, "Thou shalt have no
other gods before me." Only then,
when the old idol is broken, when the
old hope is dead, when the old desire is
crushed, then the Diviie compensation
of Nature is made manifest! She shows
herself to you. So near she draws you
that the blood seems to flow from her
to you through a still uncut cord. You
feel the throb of her life.
When that day comes that you sit
down broken, without one human crea
ture to whom you cling, with your
loves the dead and the living dead;
when the very thirst for knowledge
through long continued thwarting has
grown dull; when in the present there
s no craving and In the future no
hope, then, oh, with, a beneficent ten
derness. Nature infolds you.
Then the large white snowfiakes as
they flutter down softly, one by one.
whisper soothingly, "Rest, poor heart,
rest!" It is as though our mother
smoothed our hair, and we are comfort
ed.
Well to die then, for, if you live, so
surely as the years come, so surely as
the spring succeeds the winter, so sure-
y will passions arise. They will creep
back, one by one, Into the bosom that
has cast them forth and fasten there
again, and peace will go. Desire, am
bition and the fierce agonizing flood
of love for the living they will spring
again. Then Nature will draw down
her velL With all your longing you
shall not be able to raise one corner.
You cannot bring back those peaceful
days. Well to die then!
Sitting there with his arms folded
on his knees and his hat slouched
down over his face, Waldo looked out
into the yellow sunshine that tinted
even the very air with the color of ripe
corn and was happy.
He was an uncouth creature, with
small learning and no prospect In the
future but that of making endless ta
bles and stone walls, yet it seemed to
him as he sat there that life was a rare
and very rich thing. He rubbed his
hands in the sunshine. Ah, to live on
so, year after year, how well! Always
In the present, letting each day glide,
bringing Its own labor and its own
beauty, the gradual lighting up of the
hills, night and the stars, firelight and
the coals! To live on so, calmly, far
from the paths of men, and to look at
the lives of clouds and insects, to look
deep Into the heart of flowers and see
how lovingly the pistil, and the sta
mens nestle there together, and to see
in the thorn pods howrthe little seeds
suck their life through" the delicate
curled up string and 'how the little
embryo sleeps Inside! Well, how well.
to sit so on one side, taking no part in
the world's life, but when great men
blossom into books looking into those
flowers also, to see how the world
of men, too, opens beautifully, leaf aft
er leaf! Ah, life Is delicious! Well to
live long and see the darkness break
ing add the day coming, the day when
soul shall not thrust back soul that
would come to it, when men shall not
be driven to seek solitude because of
the crying out of their hearts for love
and sympathy! Well to live long and
see the new time breaking! Well t&
live long! Life is sweet, sweet, sweet!
In his breast pocket, where of old the
broken slate used to be, there was now
a little dancing shoe of his friend who
was sleeping. He could feel it when he
folded his arm tight against his breast.
and that was well also. He drew his
hat lower over his eyes and sat so mo
tionless that the chickens thought be

was asleep ana gatnered closer around
hlmT One even ventured to peck at his
boot, but it ran away quickly. Tiny,
yellow fellow that It was. It knew
that men were dangerous. Even sleep
ing they might awake." But Waldo did
not sleep and coming back from his
sunshiny dream, stretched out his hand
for the tiny thing to mount. But the
chicken eyed the hand askance and
then ran off to hide under its mother's
wing, and from beneath it It some
times put out its round head to peep at
the great figure sitting there. Presently
its brothers ran off after a little white
moth, and It ran out to Join them, and
when the moth fluttered away over
their heads they stood looking up, dis
appointed, and then ran back to their
mother. Waldo through his half closed
eyes looked at them. Thinking, fear
ing, craving, those tiny sparks of
brother life, what were they, so real
there In that old yard on that sun
shiny afternoon? A few years where
would they be? Strange little brother
spirits! He stretched his hand toward
them, for his heart went out to them,
but not one of the little creatures came
nearer him, and he watched them
gravely for a time. Then he smiled
and began mattering to himself after
his old fashion. Afterward he folded
his arms upon his knees and rested his
forehead on them. And so he sat
there In the yellow sunshine, mutter
ing, muttering, mattering, to himself.
It was not very long after when Em
came out at the back door with r. towel
thrown across her head and in , her
hand a cup of milk.
"Ah," she said, coming close to him,
"he Is Bleeping now! He will find It
when he wakes and be glad of lt
She put It down upon the ground be
side him. The mother hen was at
work still among the stones, but the
chickens had climbed about him and
were perching on him. One stood upon
his shoulder and rubbed its little head
softly against his black-curls. An
other tried to balance Itself on the very
edge of the old felt hat One tiny fel
low stood upon his hand and tried to
crow. Another had nestled Itself down
comfortably on the old coat sleeve and
gone to sleep there.
Em did not drive them away, but sho
covered the glass softly at his aide.
"He will wake socn," she said, "and be
glad of it"
But the chickens were wiser.
FISH THAT FISHES
He 11 e a on tbe Bottom of tae Sea
Waiting Motlonleaa for tae Ap
proach of Ilia Prey.
Most remarkable of strange fishes is
the angler fish", whose very name seems
a paradox. The fishing fish is never
theless a reality, and a stem one to
all that approach those awful jaws cf
his. With a body the color of mud he
generally lies ia the shadow of some
rock on the bottom of the sea, waiting
motionless for the approach of his
prey. He is provided with an odd
kind of fin just over the mouth, and
this is held out in front of him to give
warning of the coming of something
to be swallowed. One taken alive was
experimented on and it was founT
that If this projecting fin was touched
with a stick, even though the stick did
not come near the mouth, the jaws
closed convulsively. This shows that
the fin by some provision of nature
closes the jaws as soon as it is
touched. The mouth is tremendous,
growing to the width of a foot when
the whole fish is only three feet long.
One of these anglers was caught not
long since and though, it was only 23
inches long, a fish 15 inches long was
found sticking in its throat The
angler is provided with peculiar teeth
set in double or treble rows along the
jaws, and at the entrance of the
throat Some of these teeth are a
foot long. He is not a pretty fish to
look at but he attends strictly to
business and will swallow anything
that touches hi warning fin, whether
It- is meant for food or not All kinds
of thing, have been found in. the
stomachs of anglers, from bits of lead
and stone to hsn almost as large as
the angler itself. This is without
doubt one of the most peculiar and in
teresting fish in the whole ocean. St
Louis Glebe-Democrat.
INSECT CALCULATOR.
He la Found In Sew Caledonia and
Cam - Co ant Correctly tp i
the Saraaer Six.
There is a little insect found in New
Caledonia called the "insect "which
counts, and which seems capable of
counting' to at least six. It is found
on the leaves of the banana tree, and
when the moment is favorable it may
be seen to turn around, with its head
as a center, in describing' rapid cir
cles. At first it executes six of them,
nor one more nor one less, then it
reverses the movement and makes the
same number in an opposite direction.
It stops a moment and begins again,
but only makes five this time, always
alternately in opposite directions. An
other stop, then, double rotation, In al
ternative ways; the turns this time
only being four, and so On, diminish
ing' constantly In such, a, way &s suc
cessively three, then two and at last
one single turnJ. t
After these, gymnastic exercises,
which are at the same time mathemat
ical, the insect remains absolutely mo
tionless until its agitation again takes
possession of It and it gives itself up
to its complicated calculations with an
exactitude which many people might
envy. :
