One ninwnln nt the breakfast ta
ble pnld tin- old possum hunter ns I
asked li 1 111 for n yarn mo mi the old
woman got Into u Jnw bout coons I
held to It that all coons otter hev bin
Initialled an she contended that the
Lawd tniule em as he wanted em an
did n good job We wasnt mini at
fust but the mo we talked the meaner
we felt an bluieby we got downright
ugly It was Sunday mil wtiln an we
was goln off to iireaehln that day but
when I cot my mad up 1 said
As long as Im fur bobtalled coons
nn the Iawd didnt make em that way
It aint no use fur me to hear preachln
Ill stay home an ye kin go alone
I reckoned that would cool her oft
a bit but It didnt She chawed away
nt her bacon fur awhile an then said
Zeb While thars bound to be a
calamity nround this cabin Cant no
body llnd fault the way yo do without
miuthln happcnln Im goln right along
to preachln an if yo want to lly la the
face of Providence yo must take the
consequences
Im contendln fur bobtalled coons
said I If all coons was bobtalled
theyd look a heap punier an git along
n heap better
But how kin they be when Its all
fixed
Dunno but Im contendln
Then yo keep on contendln an see
how yoll come out Thars bobtalled
varmints In the mountings an mebbe
yoll git miff of them befo yo git

t If shed coaxed me a bit Id hev

BI1E DUMI KD I1IM OUT
Bhed said all she meant to When she
got ready she started off through the
woods an never even looked at me
My rillo was out of order an my old
dawg had run away an so I couldnt
go strollin through the woods I got
down on the doahstep an smoked a
pipe or two an as It was a warm day
I begun to feel sleepy 1 went over
nn tumbled on to the bed an it wasnt
five miuits befo 1 was sound asleep
The doah was left wide open an bout
the last thing I heard befo I drapped
off was the old mewl brayin In the sta
ble Id bin asleep an hour when sun
thin crowded me over agin the wall
an I woke up I opened my eyes to
find a big bar on the bed with me
Hed found the doah open an walked
In nn seeln me asleep he sot out to
Lev some fun He didnt bee me open
my eyes an I took keer to shot em
ngln artpr one look Befo the Lawd
but I was skeered 1 felt the cold
chills creepin up an down my bnck an
tho sweat busted out on me as If I was
choppln nt a big tree
1 had found fnult with the Lawd
fur not makin bobtnilcd coons con
tinued the old man ns he refilled his
pipe nn n bobtalled bnr had bin sent
In revenge It wasnt no use to think
of Jumpin up or fightln him He had
nil the advantage an If I made him
mad hed finish me up In a mluit My
game wns to play possum on him but
1 hope I shall never hev slch another
two hours while I live That bar
wanted n good time He was feellu
good natured an he Jest tried nil sorts
of circus tricks with me Hed roll rae
over ngln the wall with n bang an
then nrter a chuckle hed roll me back
with a flop He didnt bite nt nil but
every time he put his cluws on to mo
they went through the cloth I be
lieve that varmint turned me over 30
times befo he got a little tired of It
I was plnyln dead all the time nn
didnt know what mlnlt hed git mnd
nn set out to finish me He finally got
thirsty nn jumped off the bed an went
to the water pail on the beech nn Inp
ped away fur ten miuits 1 had my
eyes open nil the time an was anxious
to git away but I wns nfenred of him
I couldnt fight him barehanded nn
etntul nny show
I Jest laid thnr till the vnrmlnt had
Quenched his thirst nn looked nround
an then he come back agin The cir
cus was only half over He was so
rough at times that I almost yelled out
with tho pain nn between the clnwln
nn the sheer I wasnt much better than
a dead man The mewl smelt of bar
nn kept up a tremendous brayin an
the old woman heard the noise when
ehe wns ylt a mile away Blmcby
when the varmint had had a show
with the price of admission he settled
down fur a rest I was then lylii with
my face to the wall nn he planted nil
four feet agin my back nn kejlt up n
sort of punin Ho hail me crowded
ngln the cabin logs till 1 could hnrdly
breathe nn I hnd mudc up my mind
thnt Id never tree another coon when
the old woman got back from preachln
The old mewl waa klckia an brayin an
she seen the trscks of the bnr lendln
into the cabin She stood In the doah
nn got sight of the varmint on the bed
an she did a thing which no man on
these yete Oitubeilniul mountings
would hev attempted Thar was no
gun at hand to shoot with an her only
show was lo a e that bar by sur
prise Thats what she did She tip
ijd ii to the bed an fastened ter fill
gers In his fur an though he was a
hefty load she carried him to the doah
an dumped him out I never knowed
she was home till she pulled the bar
away As I rlz up he astonished var
mint was umkiii fur the woods while
the old woman hadnt even turned
pale
Wns was It a bar I asked as
she took off her Minbonnet an began to
clatter the stove
Of eose she lawlessly replied
An whin did yo do with him
Mest dumped him outdoahs Pears

Most of yor clothes hev bin clawed off

AVhon a man Is about to entertain a
very charming girl whom he Ih anxious
to Impress aud suddenly finds that
with the exception of a few coppers
he has no nione In his pocket he may
purely be forgiven the use of a few
strong ejaculations Such was the
plight of Evorurd Hamlyu at 10 min
utes to 1 on a certain Saturday after
noon He had been so absorbed In I
reading the brief of an Important case
which was to be hoard In the courts
on Monday that he had forgotten the
emptiness of his pocket At 1 oclock
Alice Valentine an American girl with
whom he hail formed a deep friend- j
ship was coming to see what a bar
risters chambers In the Temple looked
like and she was also to be taken out
to lunch
The worst was that there were only
ten minutes to rectify the mistake lie
wrote out n cheek hurriedly and then
remembered that time would not per
mit him to go to the bank to cash it
Ills clerk was gone and the Temple
was wrapped In Its usual Saturday
afternoon peaeefuluoss I
Without u hut he rushed over to
Ilarcourt buildings lo see If his friend
Anderson was in the chambers He
could rely upon him for a couple of
pounds
But the fates were against llamlyn
Anderson was out ami the doors were
locked
Realizing that there was nothing for
It but to go to the bank he hurried
nlong up the court Into Fleet street
meaning to hall a hansom But as he
arrived there the clock struck 1 nud
he knew that lie could not get to the
bank and back under lit I minutes Alice
would never for rlte him if he were not
nt Ills Moms lo Mi iic her
SiuMi ijiv his e a caught by the
three bra s hals lunging oer a shop j
almost opposite The sight suggested
a new Idea to his mind and he prompt
ly acted upon it In another moment
he rushed across the road and enter 1
lug the shop bunded hih bO guinea
hunter over he counter
How much said the clerk eying
the hatless and breathless Hamlyu
somewhat suspiciously
Oh 1 only wanted a liver replied
Everard hurriedly
Have you got a card on you nsketl
the clerk thinking that he was on the j
track of a swell mobsman
Unversed in the ways of J
leers Hamlyu pulled out his case and
handed him a card I
All right sir said the clerk seeing
the name and address and noticing the I
name corresponded with the initials on
the watch I beg your pardon sir and
he hastily filled up a ticket and count-
ed out 5 Have you a penny for the
ticket please
Ilnmlyn impatiently threw down a
copper and fairly bolted out of the
shop The people in Fleet street stared
nt him with amazement and a gutter
nrnb will whom he had collided shout 1
ed Who are yer shovin of as he
crossed the road
Now it happened that Alice Valen
tine was Just at that moment passing
down Fleet street on her way to the
Temple She had arrived somewhat
earlier than she had intended for she
uphold the traditions of womanhood
with regard lo unpunctuallty
It would never do she said to her
self to be quite punctual He would
think I was too Impatient
So timing herself to arrive at the
Temple about 1 lr oclock she was
Htrolling leisurely along when she
caught sight of Hamlyn rushing wild
ly out of a pawnbrokers shop For a
moment the ltidicious side of the sit
uation struck her very forcibly and
she laughed softly to herself But
gradually ns she realized the full sig
nificance of the action her amusement
gave place to pity
Poor boy she murmured I had
not the faintest idea he was hard up
And to think thnt I have let him spend
such a lot of money In taking me
nbout I must get even with him some
how
There wns a very tender spot In her
heart for the tall clever young banis
ter who had shown so plainly his pref
erence for her above nil other women
Alice Vnlentlne and her aunt Miss
Safford were ninklng a tour of Europe
and had met Ilnmlyn first of all at n
hotel In iciiovn He hnd rendered
them n number of civilities and as he
happened to be doing the same round
of Switzerland as they for n month he
wns their almost dally companion
With the frankness of American wo
men they accepted his attentions
graciously and finding him a pleasant
nttendnnt enrolled him In their serv
ices without further ado
Miss Safford generally accompanied
Alice wherever she went ami showed
quite as much engerness to do every
place thoroughly as her niece It was
only on rare occasions when the elder
lady was obliged to admit that she
was too tired for anything that
llamlyn had a chance of taking Miss
Valentine out alone
The constnnt companionship how
ever had brought about the usual re- j
suit Ilnmlyn wns not nn Inflammable
man Ho had reached the mature ago
of 30 not unsought after without
having succumbed to feminine chnrms
But there was something nbout the
fair Americnu which fnscinated him
In spite of himself J
Today as she came luto his room a
perfect vision or freshness and loveli
ness In the gloomy atmosphere of the
Temple Ilnmlyn wns conscious of the
certnlu shyness mid reserve In her
manlier that he had not noticed before
I dont believe 1 ought to come here
by myself she said as be closed tnt
door I wonder what Aunt Cathetlno
would mij to it
You ale hile said llamlyn I
hint been waiting impatiently for
you
Ant 1 really replied Alice What
Is the time hen
He pulled at his watch chain me
chanically forgetful of his eueapnde
and disclosed the bare swivel He col
ored slightly as he realled his mis
take ami felt her eyes upon him but
answered lightly
About VO minutes past 1 I fancy
She was walking round the room
gliin lut at he ponderous looking
books and the papers led with plulc
tape gelling as she oppressed It the
atmosphere of the place
It must lie Just lovely to work
here she said Everything seems so
old and historic I believe 1 should
only have lo sit here a few hours a
day and I should become a lawjer by
bi eathlng he air
Which reminds me said llanilyn
that I have boon breathing air qullo
long enough ami want lunch Where
shall we go
Alloc Valoiillne hesitated
Look here she said at last I want
to say something to yotn You have
been taking me about such n lot and I
have done nothing for ou 1 fool real
moan I want you lo let me stand you
a lunch today
lie shook his head laughingly You
forget ho said that you are my
guest But 1 waul you to say where
you would lll4e to go
lie named a well known restaurant
In Plccatlillf where she knew the
prices were ruinous
No she mi hi dont let us go
there Will you lake me to one of
those little Bohemian places you told
me of where you get a able dhote
lunch for IS pence 1 should love to
go It would be a new experience
You look too smart he replied
glancing at her admiringly but I tell
you what I will do we will split the
difference anil go to a kind of semi
fashionable place when you shall see
all flirts aud conditions of people and
hear a baud
Once or twice during lunch when
conversation lagged llamlyn not Iced
again the thoughtful expression on her
face At last he look the mailer up
Tell mo he said what you are
thinking of
I was thinking she replied slowly
of how 1 could help some one who lias
been very good to me
Not a tlltllctill matter surely for
you
It is very difficult she said un
der the circumstances The person I
want to help Is poor and I think v
proud
She was looking down nt the table
cloth and studiously avoiding his eyes
Can I be of any nssistance he
said
You Why She laughed Yes
perhaps you can I will think about It
and let you know
There was a new sympathy in her
voice and manner and llamlyn fell a
mad desire to take her here and then
In his arms and cover her face with
kisses
But there was no opportunity then to
tell her of his love Immediately after
lunch they were obliged to hurry off lo
meet Miss SalVord at a matinee and
llamlyn had no further chance of a
with Alice but he arranged
satisfactorily a meeting for Monday
afternoon when he determined to put
his fate lo the test
You will not forgot he said at
parting to let me help you In the mat
ter you mentioned
No she replied with a singular
look on her face I will not forget
As Everard walked home he recalled
her tones her face the fair lushed
hooks sweet mouth earnest brows
nnd eyes of softest lire There was thnt
la her look which satisfied him
He was nwnkened from his reverie
by an urchin Inquiring what oclock It
was For the second time that day he
mechanically tugged nt his wntch
chain
Confound It he exclaimed as he
realized his loss I never knew that
it was such a nuisance to be without a
watch I must get It out first thing on
Monday morning
The urchin grasping the situation
ran away grinning
On Sunday llamlyn again bethought
himself of the watch
I had better study the ticket he
said and see whnt I shall have to
pay
He fumbled In his wnlstcont pocket
It wns not there He tried the others
with the same result With growing
uneasiness he searched In every pocket
of the clothes he had worn on the Sat
urday but the pawn ticket was not to
be found
I must have left It at my chambers
he decided at last It Is very careless
of me I hope my clerk wont find It
On Monday morning he got up enrll
er than usual nnd drove down to the
Temple In a hansom Ills clerk had
already arrived Ilnmlyn searched all
over the table carefully then In nil tho
drawers but could not find the ticket
Finally he summoned tho clerk
Have you moved nny papers ho
asked rather Irritably
No sir I havent touched a thing
You havent by any chnnco found n
ticket 1 suppose pursued llamlyn
No sir What kind of n ticket have
you lost
It doesnt mutter ho replied Impa
tiently Its of no Importance
Putting on his hat llamlyn hurried
Into Fleet street to the pawnshop
I want to redeem the watch I left
here on Saturday he announced
Where Is your ticket sir said tho
man
I have mislaid It replied nainlyn
But Its nil right You remember me
1 expect The wntch belongs to me
nnd I want It now
I nm yery sorry sir but you cant
hare It without the ticket
4iMpvl0Piv
Ilnriilyu mulleied an exclamation of
tllljltlCIMO
Bui suppose I have lost It What
tin u
I Will give yon a form of dttiaia
thin lo be made before a uiaglstnilo
Is Ihe o no other way said Ham
lyn realizing he trouble ami annoy
nine lids would cause
No sir said he pawnbroker I
am n Onld there Is not
I hcio was no time to waste lie had
to ic In coin 1 oai ly as his ease was
itnntiir the first on tho lists It won no
usi si pping lo argue the mutter He
iuut go hcroro a magistrate and sign
the decimation as soon as possible
Kcturnlug to hN iinmbors lie put oil
his robes and was soon lost In contem
plation of the business In haml
About an hour niter his visit to lie
pawnbrokers shop Alice Valentine
drove up In a cab to the same door
She had found tho pawn ticket lying
on llaiulyus table on tho Saturday
afloruoou and had appropriated II
moaning to lodeom tho watch ami send
It bark to him as soon as possible She
was rather ucrwius at going Into the
shop but she was not the 11ml of ghl
to allow her own feelings to stand In
the way of any piojeot she wished to
carry through so putting on an air of
unusual haughtiness she entered the
lit tic compartment and handed In the
ticket
I want the wntch please she said
Tho pawnbrokers assistant looked
her up ami down carefully When he
had as It woie sized her completely
be Inquired dryly Where did you get
this
Alloc hired up Indignantly Thai
Is no business of yours Toll nn what
I have to pay and give me the watch
Not so fast hi hi the young man
You must answer one or two ques
tions first
Hi went away and after a whispered
confabulation returned with a gray
bearded old man who was polite but
Inn
I am sorry madam but I cannot al
low you to redeem this pledge until
you Inform me how this ticket came In
to your possession
I found It said Alice
Allow me to Inform you then said
the pawnbroker sternly that you are i
committing a very grave offense By
attempting to obtain the watch you lay
yourself open to criminal proceeding
But said Alice I am a Mend of
the gentleman to whom the watch bo
longs I
Yomo come replied the man that
wont do nt all A gentleman who
called himself Mr llamlyn was here
about an hour ago endeavoring to get
the wntch himself
Mr Ilnmlyn been here his morn
ing cried Alice She had never sus
pocted hat lie would be able to redeem
his wntch so soon
Better send for a policeman sug
gested the assistant
Hold your tongue said his master
Then turning to Alice Valentino he
said I do not wish to be hard upon
you but I Insist on an explanation I
will send over to the address on the
ticket and If your slory Is true Mr
Hamlyu will corroborate It Harvey
send the boy over to Queens Bench
walk and ask Mr llamlyn to come
here immediately
Mr Hamlyu coming here cried
Alice ungual dedly Oh I must go at
once
I cannot allow It said the pawn
broker You must wait If you re
fuse 1 have no option but to call a po
liceman
If looks could kill the pawnbroker
would have died on the spot as Alice
wllh the air of a tragedy queen sub
mitted to the indignity of being es
corted to the back parlor while Har
vey kept watch and ward over her
A quarter of an hour later Everard
Hainlyu Jumped out of a hansom and
hurried Into the shop lie was an Im
petuous person aud he had not waited
to change his robes hut had come
straight away In wig and gown from
he law court lie was met In he
passage by Harvey who had been
awaiting his arrival with keen Inlerest
Theres a woman In here he said
pointing o the parlor who says shes
n friend of yours nnd has found your
pawn ticket but I suspect
Out of the way cried Hamlyn
thrusting the ollleious young man on
one side ami rushing into the room
Alice by all thats wonderful ho
exclaimed and then seeing that her
bosom wns heaving convulsively he
put his inn around her nud Inquired
tenderly whnt had happened
They have been so rude and Insult
ing she Bobbed
Hamlyn waited for no further ex
planation but seizing Harvey by the
throat shook him until the unfortunate
youth had not n breath In his body
Then turning lo the older man he
cried sternly What do you menu by
Insulting this Indy
The pnwnbroker discovering his mis
take was all apologies but llnuilyns
temper wns still up
Nothing could Justify mdeness to n
lady he said nud he Insisted on nn ab
ject apology from the crestfallen assist
nnt
Then he took Alice back to his rooms
In the Temple When they were alone
he put his arm nround her nnd said Im
pulsively
Oh my darling how sweet of you to
try to get my wntch bnck for me Hid
you do It because you care Tell me
daillng 1 love you
It wnB very silly of me I know
fho said softly and shyly but 1
thought you were poor anil oh I
wanted to help you
I am not poor he said smilingly
at least not very poor I have a thou
sand a year nnd we might manage on
that
lie took out the watch and held It
before her eyes
1 shall uever look nt It he enld
without thinking that I won you
