    Love Generates Sunshine.
Love generates the sunshine or the
moral universe, without which life
would be a desert waste. It brightens
the dark places. It gladdens the sar- j
rowing. H lifts us above the petty
grinding cares that burden the heart
and sap enthusiasm and energy.
Then never w»s a more thorough
truth than that hate, envy, revenge,
and all the evil passions that we are
heir to, corrode, render wretched and
destroy first, the heart in which they
originate.
Love will draw the world to you
and surround you with an atmosphere j
of happiness and success. Every hard
thought gives binh to a singing ser
pent in your own heart
The cashing in of the emotions in
any form plays smash with the sin

the part of '.he vender.

Mr. Solomon Pratt began comical nar

Nathan Scudder **f his town, and Edward
Van Brunt and Martin Hartley, two rich
New Yorkers seeking rest. Because of
latter pair’s lavish expenditure of money.
Fruit’s first impression was connected t
with lunatics. The arrival of Janies

CHAPTER VII.—Continued.
“What in the nation?" says I.
"Hello, Sul," says he. "Where's the
folks?”
"Turned in." says 1. "What's up?"
Ke seemed real disappointed. Set
the bundles down on the kitchen table
and puffed. That sand is hard walk
ing aud nobody knows it heater than
I do.
"Turned in so early, have they?" he
says. "That's too bad. I wanted to
see 'em."
"Want me to roust 'em out?" 1
asks.
"No. I guess not. But they're nice
folks as ever I see and I've fetched 'em
a few presents."
i flopped into a chair. 1 was getting
used to surprises, but Nates giving
anybody a present was the biggest
wonder yet. 1 figured that lunacy was
catching and we was all going crazy
together.
"Yes," says he. "Me and Huidy
Ann s been talking it over. They've
hired this house and—and—all the
rest of it and we want 'em to like it.
Don't want ’em to get tired and leave,
you see."
I see all right. When the melon's
getting ripe that's the time to
watch it.
"Yes,' he says. "I like them young
fellers well's anybody 1 ever see. and
so does Huldy. We got to thinking of
’em over here in this big house and
we wanted 'em to feel at home; just
as if 'twas home. Now there's nothing
like pictures and such cn the walls to
make a place homey. So Huldy and
me has sent 'em these few things to
hang up 'round."
He commenced to undo the bundles.
" 'Twas Huldy Ann's notion." be
went cn. "When she bought this place
at auction there was the furniture and
fixings in it that belonged to Marcel
lus. Some of 'em we left here, beds
and chair: and the like of that, and
some we took over to our house. There
was more than we needed and these is
some we had in the attic."
He'd got the newspapers and strings
off by this time and he spread the
presents out on the floor. There was
a wax wreath from old Mrs. Berry's
funeral, in a round case; and a crayon
enlargement of a daguerreotype of
Marcellus when he was 30 or so; he
had a fancy vest on and a choker and
a fringed-end necktie, and looked like
he was freezing to death fast and knew
it. Likewise there was a shell work
basket in a shell frame with about a
third of the shells missing; and two
silver coffin plates on black velvet;
and a worsted motto thing with "What
Is Home Without a Mother?” on it.
“ThereI” says Nate, happy and gen
erous. “We'll give 'em them things,
Huldy and me. Leastways they can
have 'em to look at while they’re here.
Have 'em strung around on the setting
room walls and it kind of takes off the
bare look. Gives ’em something to
think about, too, don't it?”
les, says i; J should think
’twould. I wouldn't think of much
else, seems to me."
"Yes," says he. “Well, I hoped they
could have 'em to-night afore they
went to bed. But you explain about
’em in the morning. Tell ’em they’re
from me and Huldy. I'll be around
after breakfast anyhow to fetch some
more things from the store and see if
There ain't something else I can do.
Good-night."
"Good-night,” says I. absent-minded.
1 couldn't get my mind off them coffin
plates.
He kind of hesitated.
“Oh say," he says. "Did you eat all
of them mackerel you had? If you
didn’t, and they’re likely to spoil, why,
I’ll take a couple along home with me.
Huldy's dreadful fond of mackerel.”
"There ain't but one left." says I.
“and—"
"Oh. well,” he says; "one’li u
enough for us. We’re awful small eat
ers."
So 1 trotted out the mackerel and
he done it tip in a piece of the news
paper and went away to his dory. I
lugged in the presents and laid ’em
away in the old chest of drawers in
the dining room. Felt like an under
I taker, too. I did. all the time I was do
ing it. I didu t want the Heavenlies to
see them relics till they’d ate a good
breakfast—they was too much for an
empty stomach. Then I locked up
and took the lamp and went to my
room.
After I got undressed I open'"’ i.e
window and leaned on th- . and
thought. I thought at>c:r / new job
and what I r ;id sc; v. as coming to
me in the ..y of work, and about
Lord James auu \'ate and all. And
then 1 though' Hartley and that
Page girl. Ma.un didn’t act to me
like a money-grabber. I couldn’t un
derstand it. One thing I was sure of,
them two was meant for each other
and it seemed to tne that they still
liked each other. But there was Van'
Brunt. I liked him too.
Just then a thundering great green
head bit me on the back of the neck
and I slammed down the sash and
turned in on niv bale of corncobs.
Tired! don't talk.'
CHAPTER VIII.
Mr. Scudder’s Presents.
I was up the next morning about
five and pitched in making biscuit and
lugging water and so on. Lord Janies
comes poking down after a while. He
looked pretty well used up.
"See ere. Pratt." says he. "Wat
they got in them blooming beds—
bricks?"
"Why?" says I. "Was yours hard?"
" Ard? Upon me word I ni all full
of oles like a grater. My back is that
sore you wouldn't believe it. And
w'al makes 'pm so noisy ? "
"That's tile husks." says 1. 'They
do rustle when a feller ain't used
to 'em."
"Rustle: When I'd roll over, upon
me word the sounds was 'orrifying.
Like the water washing around that
boat of yours, it was. I dreamed about
being adrift in that awful boat all
night. About that and ghosts."
“Ghosts, hey? Did you dream of
ghosts?”
"That 1 did. I could 'ear ’em groan
ing."
" "Twas yourself that was groaning."
says 1. "A feller that took aboard the
cargo of supper that you did hadn't
ought to sleep on cornhusks."
"I didn't sleep: not a 'ealthy Chris
“Good Land of Love!” Says I. “Them Ain’t Clams—They’re Quahaugs.”
tian sleep. I didn't. I say, Pratt, did
you ever ear that this old 'ouse was
aunted?"
“Well," says I, 'T don't know as 1
ever heard that exactly. But old Mrs.
Berry died in it and then Marcellus
lived here alone till he died. Seems to
me he died in that room of yours,
come to think of it," says I, cheering
him up.
He turned pale, instead of the yel
low he'd been lately.
“'Oly Moses!" says he. "You can't
mean It.”
“I can mean more than that without
half trying," I says. “Yes, I remem
ber now. He did die there and they
say he died hard. Maybe that was on
account of the bed. though."
He was mighty upset. Commenced
to tell about a friend of his over in
"the old country" who had been butler
at a place that was haunted. I asked
if his friend had ever seen any of the
spooks.
"No,” says he. “ 'e never saw 'em
"imself. but it was a tradition in the
family. Everybody knew it. It was a
white lady, and she used to trip about
the ’ouse and over the lawns nights,"
he says.
"White, was she?" says I. “Well, I
suppose if she'd been black they
wouldn't have been able to see her in
the night. Never heard of a colored
ghost anyway, did you?”
“I mean she was all dressed in
white,” he says, scornful. "And they
say 'twas ’orrid to see her a-gliding
around over the grass.”
"Want to know!" says I. “Well, if

the h immcc! c...s.de call me, will you? |
u like to see how he manages to navi
gate through the sand. That's a job I
for a strong, healthy man. let alone
a dead one.”
1 r 'ess 1: s?c ' didn’t take much
stock in his ghest : rrns, so he quit
and went to getting the things on the
breakfast table. But he was nervous
and broke a dish and sprinkled forks
and spoons over the floor like he was 1
Tin; green corn from our own planta

' And tomatters already baked in

Scudder.”
Rut they wouldn't hear of it. Called
me a Jeremiah and so on.
"All right,” says I, finally. "Have!
it your own way. Rut who's going to
work this cucumbers and dew farm?”
“Why. we are. of course,” says Van.
"That’s part of the game, isn't it, Mar
tin? Nothing so healthful as out
door work for caged birds like us.
Maybe we'll have two gardens, one
apiece. Then we'll see who raises the
first crop."
I could see 'em doing it! But there
was no use arguing then. I put my
trust in Scudder's not being able to
fetch the loam.

REALLY AN APT COMPARISON
Good Illustration of the True Position
of China.
During a debate in the senate on
foreign affairs one day one of the
senators was discussing China's
somewhat precarious position in the
P.ussc-Japauese war.
"Gentleman,” observed the senator,
humorously, “it has always seemed to
me that China is hopelessly small
and helpless as compaicd with Rus
sia or Japan. Anything she may have
to say to the combatants is sugges
tive of the remark that the gamecock
made to the horses.
"This game-cock, as you well know,
found himself one day in a stable full
of horses—huge, restless e.eeds. They

The cock had to dodge from right to
left and from left to right to avoid
being trampled to pieced. As he shot
this way and that between the heavy
hoofs, he kept singing out:

us tread on one another.’ ’’—Illus

Where He Stood.
The woman was showing the artist
her diamond pin. “How- much is it
worth?" he asked. “A hundred and
fifty dollars," she answered. “What
would you do if you htid a diamond
pin that was worth a hundred dol
lars?” “There's one tiling certain,”
he said. “I wouldn’t have the diamond
pin.”
sowing ’em. Pretty soon he had to
stop and hustle upstairs, for the
Twins was shouting for their duds. For
grown men they was the most helpless
critters: his lordship was a sort of
nurse to 'em. as you might say.
After a while he had 'em dressed
and ready and they come down to
breakfast. Nate had brought over
feather beds for them, so they slept
pretty well. Van Brunt was rigged up
special because he was going to East
wich that forenoon to see his girl.
I'd cooked a wtiopping big breakfast,
but twas only just enough. Van was
a regular famine breeder and Hartley
wa’n't far astern of hint. The Natural
Life was agreeing with both of 'em
fine so far. Martin's cheeks was filling
out and him and his chum was sun
burned to brick red.
After breakfast they went out for
their usual promenade. By and by 1
heard 'em hailing me from the back
of the house. When I reached 'em
they was standing by the barn, with
their hands in their pockets, and look
ing as happy and proud as if they'd
discovered America.
"Come here. skipper,” says Van.
"Do you see this?"
He was pointing at a kind of flat
place in the lee of the pig sties. Twas
a sort of small desert, as you might
say: A hunch or two of beachgrass in
the middle of it and the rest poverty
grass and sand.
"I don't see much." says 1. "What
do you mean?"
"I mean rhe location." says he.
"Here's where we'll have our garden."
I looked at him to see if he was
joking. But it appeared he wa'n't.
"Garden?" says 1.
"Sure." he says. "It s an ideal spot.
Sun all day long."
"You could make a garden here,
couldn't you. Sol?" asks Hartley.
"Maybe I could,” says i, "if I dug
through to Chiny and bit loam on
t'other side. Otherwise you couldn't
raise nothing in this sand but blis
ters."
"Scudder could bring us loam." says
Van. "We've thought of that."
"Starting a garden in July!" says 1.
"What do you cal'late to raise—Christ
mas trees?"
"Late vegetables, of course.” says
Van. ".Martin and 1 intend to stay all
through September. Think of it, Mar
the dory with a cargo of skim milk
and store eggs and butter. Van Brunt
and I went down to meet him. Van
didn't give him a chance to talk; just
as soon as the sniff was put on shore
he announces that Scudder must go
right back and drive him over to East
wich. Nate backed and filled, as us
ual, telling bow busy he was, and how
he hadn't ought to leave, and so on.
But Van corks him right up with a
five-dollar bill and off they went.
I lugged the milk and butter and he
rest of the truck up to the house and
started in on another stretch of work.
I'd had a vacation of ten minutes or
so; now 'twas time to begin again.
After I'd cleared up round the kitchen
and the like of that, 1 went off down to
the Dora Bassett and tackled her. Van
Brunt had cut away about everything
but the mast, and I had to rig new
halliards and sheets and downhauls
and land knows what. Drat that Heav
enly! twas a two days’ job.
While I was making a start on it
Hartley comes loafing down from the
house.
'Skipper." he says, “let's have an
other one of your chowders for lunch,
will you? They're-the real thing."
"Well, I tell you, Mr. Hartley,” says
I. "if we have chowder I'd ought to go
and dig the clams right now, on ac
count of the tide. And, honest, I hate
to leave this work I'm on. Still, of
course, if you say so. why—”
"What's the matter with my digging
'em ?" he says.
I grinned. "Why, nothing," I says,
"so far as I know, except that it's
something of a job."
"Job!" he says. "It'll be fun. Tell
me where to go—and what to dig 'em
with, and—and how to do it."
I told him to take the skiff and a
clam hoe and a couiile of buckets and
row across to the mainland. There was
clams all alongshore there. I knew.
“You go along till you see a lot of
little holes in the sand." 1 says, "then
you dig. Want to look out that they
ain't sand-worm holes, nor razor fish.
And when you begin to dig." 1 says,
"you want to lay right into it, 'cause
the clams are likely to be ’run-downs'
and they get under fast. So—"
“Hold on a minute.' says he. "How
am 1 going to tel! a worm hole from a
clam-hole.or a clam-hole from a—what
was it?—barber fish hole?”
' Razor fish." says I. "Not barber.
Well. I don't know how to tell you, ex
actly. If it's a sand-hole there's likely
to be a little tiny hole alongside the
regular one; that is, there is some
times and sometimes there ain't. And
if it's a razor fish—well. I can tell 'em.
but I .cal’iate you'll have to use your
own judgment."
He said all right, he guessed he'd
get along. So off he went, and pretty
soon him and Lord .Tames comes down
and gets aboard the skiff. His lord
ship was loaded with no less than four
buckets, besides a clam hoe and the
garden hoe and the stove shovel. 'Twas
the most imposing clam hunt outfit
ever 1 see. If I'd been a clam and
see that battery coming my way l‘d
have took to tall timber.
"Sure you've got hoes and buckets
enough?" I asks, sarcastic.
"I guess so," says he, looking around
at the weapons. "We might need an
other pail, perhaps, but if we do I'll
send James after it. '
His lordship started rowing, taking
strokes first with one hand and then
with the other, and the fleet got under
way and waltzed, as you might say,
zigzag across to the main. 'Twas as
calm as a millpond and they hit land
up towards the point by the Neck Road.
Then the clam slaughterers got out
and disappeared round behind the
point. I went on with my rigging.
It got to be 11 o’clock and no signs
of 'em. Then 12; lunch time. Tide
was coming in fast, you couldn't have
got a clam now without a diving outfit.
But still all quiet on the Potomac. I
went up to the house and commenced
to slice ham and fry potatoes. 1 had
my doubts about that chowder.
Everything was ready by and by
and I stepped to the door to take an
observation. Anil then I see 'em com
ing, rowing more crab fashion than
ever. I walked down to the inlet to
meet 'em. And such sights as they
was. Blessed if they didn't look like
they'd been through the war—Lora
James especial.
"Hi. Sol: sings out Hartley, as the
skiff floats in, broadside on. "My: but
I’m glad to see you. Give James a
lift with the clams and things, will
you? I'm done up."
He looked it. He was barefoot and
harearmed, with his trousers rolled up
above his knees and his shirt sleeves
above his elbows. And the valet was
the same, and both of 'em soaking wet
and just plastered with wet sand and
clay.
I gave one glance at them bare legs
and arms.
"For the land sakes:" I sings out
"Pull down your pants and your
sleeves. You're burned to a blister al
ready."
And so they was. Tender white
skins like theirs, wet with salt watei
and out in that sun!
They pulled 'em down looking like
they didn't know what for, and come
hopping and groaning ashore. His
lordship's back was so lame from
bending over that he couldn't hardly
straighten up without howling.

"Yes," said Mr. Hayes, “and the next

Mr. Hayes laughed.
