Mrs. Cluffina In a thin, hard voice. I

"It shows he's fond of me," said
Mrs. Ganntt, locking down.

Mr. Gaxicett. aothinr her asritated

gectUx to a chair and removed her bon
net and. finding that complete recov

xaainJ in the room, took that wonder
TrfUag bird out&ide.
H j the time they bad reached the
dacks and boarded the Curlew Mrs.
Cluffina had quite recovered her spir
its. She roamed 'about the steamer
asking qoeatlons which savored more
cf Idle curiosity- than a genuine thirst
for knowledge and was at no pains to
conceal her opinion of tbo&e who were
unable to furnish her with satisfac
tory re pile.
"I shall think of you every day,
Jem." aaiJ Mrs. Gannett tenderly.
"1 shall think of you every minute,"
said the engineer reproachfully.
He s'xbod gently and gazed In, a
scandalized fashion at Mrs. Cluffina,
who was carrying on a desperate flirta
tSoa with one of the apprentices.
"She's very light hearted." said his
wife, following the direction of hia
eye.
"She Is," said Mr. Gannett curtly as
the onrouartotts Mrs. Cluffins shorten
ed her paraAul and rapped the appren
tice playfully with the handle.
"She serra to be on very good terms
with Jenkins, langhing and carrying
oil I don't seppoae she's ever seen him
before," aaid the engineer.
"Poor youDt thing." said Mrs. Cluf
Una sretrmij. aa ahe came up to them.
"Don't you worry. Mr. Gannett. I'll
look after her and keep ber from mop

slowly.
"Well hare a jolly time." said Mrs.
OufSna, "I often wisb my he. band

hae more frer-Jom. dcesn't she?
"More what? inquired Mr. Gannett
huskily. ,
"More freMom." said Mrs. CluSns
grarely. "I always envy sailors wives.
Tb-y can do aa they like- No husband
to look after them for nine or ten
mo at La la the year."
iWore the unhappy engineer could
jrrt hia iadicnaat thoughta Into words
there waa a warning cry from the
gansrway. and with a hasty farewell he
hcrrid below. The visitors went
ashore, the gangway was ahipped. and
fa resnotue to the clang of the tele
graph the Curlew drifted slowly away
from the qnsy and Leaded for the
awlag bridge slowly opening la front
f ber.
The two ladle hurried to the pler
b"ad and watched the steamer down
the river until a bend hid It from view.
Tbn Mrs. Gannett, with a senaation of
bavin kwrt something, due. -ber friend
assured her. to the want of a cup of
tu west slowly back to her lonely
borne.
I a rhe period of grass widowhood
which ensued. Sirs. CluSns visits
formed a!mot the sole relief to the
bare monotony of existence. Aa a com
panion the parrot waa an utter failure.

Mrs. CluScs suggested selling It, but

horror and refutmd to entertain it at
any prW, even that of the publican at

upon buylag It.
"1 wonder what that beauty will

CtuZaa aa they at together one day
mu toot month after th Curlewa

sirfxdj fspa that ha has forgotten
that nonsensei" eaid Mrs. Gannett, red
dening. "H,e never alludes to it In hia
tetters," ,
"Sell it," said Mrs. Cluffina peremp
torily, "It's no good to you, and Jim
son would give anything for it al
most." Mrs. Gannett shook ber head. The
bouse wouldn't bold my husband If I
did," she remarked, with a shiver.
Ob, yes, it would V said Mrs. Cluf
fins. "You do , as I tell you, and a
much smaller house than this would
bold him. I told a to tell Jimson he
should haTe it for 3."
"But be mustn't," said ber friend in
alarm. '
"Leave yourseH right In my handa,"
said Mrs. Clufflas, spreading out two
small palms and regarding them com
placently. "It'll bo all right, I promise
you."
She put ber arm around her friend's
waist and led her to the window, talk
ing earnestly. In five minutes Mrs.
Gannett was wavering, in ten she had
given away, and In 15 the energetic
Mrs. Clufflns was en route for Jim
son's, swinging the cage so violently in
her excitement that the parrot was re
duced to holding on to Its perch with
claws and, bill and could only think.
Mrs. Gannett watched their progress
from the window and with a queer
look on her face sat down to think
out the points of attack and defense in
the approaching fray.
A week later a four wheeler drove
up to the door, and the engineer, dart
ing up stairs three steps at a time,
dropped an armful of parcels on the
floor and caught his wife In an em
brace which would have done credit
to a bear. Mrs. Gannett, for reasons,
of which lack' of muscle was only one,
responded less ardently.
"II a, it's good to be home again!"
said Gannett, sinking into an easy
chair and pulling his wife on his knee.
"And how have you been? Lonely?"
"I got used to It," said Mrs. Gannett
softly.
The engineer coughed. "You had
the parrot." he remarked.
"Yes. I had the magic parrot," said
Mrs. Gannett,
"How's it getting on?" said her hus
band, looking round. "Where Is it?"
"Part of it Is on the mantelpiece,"
said Mrs. Gannett, trying to speak
calmly, "part of it is In a bonnet box
up stairs, some of ifs In my pocket,
and here Is the remainder."
She fumbled in her pocket and placed
In his hand a cheap two bladed clasp
knife.
"On the mantelpiece?" repeated the
engineer, staring at the knife. "In a
bonnet box?"
"Those blue vases," said his wife.
Mr. Gannett put his hand to his head.
If he had heard aright, one parrot had
changed into a pair of blue vases, a
bonnet and a knife. A magic bird
with a vengeance!
"I sold it," said Mrs. Gannett sud
denly. The engineer's knee stiffened inhos
pitably, and his arm dropped from' his
wife's waist. She rose quietly and
took a chair opposite,
"Sold it!" said Mr. Gannett in awful
tones. "Sold my parrot!"
I didn't like it, Jem," said his wife,
"I didn't want that bird watching me,
and I did want the vases and the bon
net and the little present for you."
Mr. Gannett pitched the little present
to the other end of the room.
"You see. it mightn't have told. the
truth, Jem," continued Mrs. Gannett.
"It might have told all sorts of lies
about me and made no end of mis
chief." "It couldn't lie," shouted the engi
neer passionately, rising from his chair
and pacing the room. "Ifs your guilty
conscience that's made a coward of
you. How dare you sell my parrot?"
"Because it wasn't truthful. Jem."
said his wife, who was somewhat pale.
"If you were half as truthful, you'd
do," vociferated the engineer, stand
ing over her. "You, you deceitful wo
man." Mrs. Gannett fumbled in her pocket
again and producing a small handker
chief applied it delicately to her eyes.
"I I got rid of It for your sake," she
stammered. "It used to tell such lies
about you I couldn't bear to listen to
it."
"About me?" said Mr. Gannett, sink
ing into his seat and staring at his
wife with rery natural amazement.
"Tell lies about me? Nonsense. How
could itr
"I suppose It could tell me about
yo-3 as easily as It could you about
me," said Mrs. Gannett. "There waa
more magic in that bird than you
thought. Jem. It used to say shock
ing things about you. I couldn't bear
lb"
"Do you think you're talking to a
child or a fool?" demanded the engi
neer hotly.
Mrs. Gannett shook her head feebly.
She still -kept the handkerchief to her
eyes, but' allowed a portion to drop
over her mouth.
"I should like to hear some of the
lies It told about me." said the engi
neer, with bitter sarcasm, "If you can
remember them."
"The first lie," said Mrs. Gannett In
a feeble but ready voice, "was about
the time you were at Genoa, The par
rot said you were at some concert gar
dens at the upper end of the town."
One moist eye came mildly from be
hiEd the handkerchief just in time to
see the engineer stiffen suddenly In his
chair.
"I don't suppose there even Is such
a place," she continued.
"I b'lleve there Is." said ber hus-
band Jerkily. "I've heard our chaps
talk of It."
"But you haven't been there?" said
bis wife anxiously,
"Never!" said the engineer, with ex
traordinary vehemence.
"That wicked bird said that you got
intoxicated there," said Mrs. Gannett,!
in solemn accents, "that you smashed
a little marble topped table and knockx
ed down two waiters and that if it
hadn't have been for the captain of the
Pursuit, who was In there and who got
you away, you'd have been locked up.
Wasn't It a. wicked bird r
"Horrible T' said the engineer hus
kily, -.r. .
"I don't suppose there ever waa a
ship called the Pursuit, continued
Mrs. Gannett. . '-.
"Doesn't sound like a ship's name,"
murmured Mr. Gannett.
"Well, then a few. days later it said
the Curlew was at Naples."
"I never went ashore all the time we
were at 'Naples," remarked the engi
neer casually. ' ? '
"The parrot aald you did," said Mrs,
Gannett
. "I suppose you'll believe your own
lawful husband before that ' dashed
bird!" shouted Gannett, starting up.
"Of course I didn't believe It, Jem,
said hia wife. "I'm trying to prove to
you that the bird was not truthful, but
you're so hard to persuade." v
Mr. Gannett took a pipe from his
pocket and with a small knife dug,
with much severity and determination,
a hardened plug from the bowl and
blew noisily through the stem.
"There was a girl kept a fruit stall
Just by the harbor," said Mrs. Gannett,
"and on this evening, on the strength
"Sold Of Sold my parrotT'
of having bought three pennyworth of
green figs, you put your arm round her
waist and tried to kiss her. and her
sweetheart, who was standing close
by. tried to 6 tab you. The parrot said
that you were In such a state of terror
that you Jumped into the harbor and
was nearly drowned."
Mr. Gannett, having loaded his pipe,
lit it slowly and carefully and with
tidy precision got up and deposited the
match In the fireplace, "
"It used to frighten , me so with its
stories that I hardly knew what to do
with myself." continued Mrs. Gannett,
"when you were at Suez."
The engineer waved hs hand ."imperi
ously. "That's enough," be said stiffly.
"I'm sure I don't want to have to re
peat what it told me about Suez." said
his wife. "I thought you'd like to hear
it, that's all."
"Not at alL said the engineer, puff
tog at his pipe, "Not at all."
"But you see why I . got rid of the
bird, don't you?" said Mrs. Gannett,
"If it had told you untruths about
me, you would have" believed them,
wouldn't you?"
Mr. Gannett took his pipe from his
mouth and took his wife in his extend
ed arms. "No, my dear." be said bro
kenly; "no more than you believed all
this stuff about me."
"And I did quite right to sell it,
didn't I. Jem?"
"Quite right." said Mr. Gannett, with
a great assumption of heartiness.
"Best thing to do with it."
"You haven't heard the worst yet,"
said Mrs. Gannett. "When you were
at Suez"
Mr. Gannett consigned Suez to its
only rival and. thumping the table with
his clinched fist, forbade his wife to
mention the word again and desired
her to prepare supper.
Not until he heard her moving about
In the kitchen below did he relax the
severity of his countenance. Then his
expression changed to one of extreme
anxiety, and he restlessly paced the
room seeking for light. It came sud
denly. "Jenkins." he gasped, "that little
brute Jenkins! That's what he was
writing to Mrs. Clufflns about, and I
was going to tell Clufflns about it- I
expect he knows the letters by heart."

"Well, sir," said the Judge, glaring
down over his spectacles at the pris
oner who had been convicted of
habitual drunkenness, disorderly con
duct, vagrancy and confirmed klepto
mania, "have you anything to say why
sentence shouldn't be passed upon
you 7
"Your honor," answered the culprit,
throwing tils chest lightly up In the
air, "I've been found guilty, haven't I TT.
"Yes." n
"And no matter what I say, It
wouldn't affect your determination to
Incarcerate me. would It?"
"Not in the least," cheerfully assent
ed the judge.
"Then why did you ask me if I had
anything to say why sentence shouldn't
be passed upon me? Was It your pur
pose to raise false hopes In my breast
or was It simply out of respect to mus
ty tradition? If the first, you betray a
disposition malignant in Its cruelty; If
the second, a foolish regard for silly
superstition. I am loath- '
"Six months!" cried the Judge.
"to believe that one of your gray
bead and thought lined visage would
be guilty of either offense against the
laws laid down by reason, but"
"One yearF yelled the Judge.
"appearances are against you. Far
be It for a man in' my position to try
and humiliate the Judiciary, but"
Two years r howled the judge.
