seconds for the whole Indebtedness
You could hnve had your money long
ago If you had given me the slightest
ihlnt Major Crofoot has n good mem
ory but how can you expect him to
ikeep track of shillings when he is
dealing in thousands of dollnrs
I heard you were promoting a lit--tie
said the lawyer as he waited for
the check
Ten companies formed In the last
4hree months my boy and the
eleventh just ready to be Incorporated
Grand aggregation of over 300000000
capital thus far nnd every company
ibound to pay at least SO per cent divi
dend What do you suppose Ive got
on hand now
I cant Bay and as Im in a hurry
you may fill out that check
Tho biggest scheme of all the no
plus ultra whispered the major with
a flourish of his right arm I expect
ed to stop at ten but this scheme
came pushing along and I hnd to take
It up Its the richest of them all
Itll pay 100 per cent profit from tho
very start In a week from now tho
Standard Oil company wont be on
earth
But Im here about those bills
My dear Thompson walk with me
IVhen I wns hard up you wero one of
the few who did not lose confidence In

I might not have picked up this elev
enth scheme but for you I wanted to

I want to know about those bills
Bald the lawyer as he came to a halt
Tho last and best scheme of all

hoard company organized on a capital
of 20000000 The Idea Is strictly orig
inal with me Washboard rune n music
box while you rub Music box can be
placed in the laundry parlor kitchen
or even the next house May arrange
later on to have em connected with
drug stores kindergartens nnd public
schools Twenty four tunes In tho box

grail Put n bcdqullt on tho wash
board and you can hear the strains of
The Old Oaken Bucket from gnnet to
cellar Let tho woman tackle a table
cloth nnd everybody goes dancing to
the tunc of Maggie Murphys Home
Drug stores can hnvo It nt a slight
rost for their pntronn and public

dub Music by the box Thompson
dont miss It Dont throw n good
thing over your shoulder I want to

20000 a year

the lawyer and It wont work Will
you draw mo a check for 200
Isnt It a wonder thnt somebody else
didnt strike on the Idea whispered
the major as he patted Thompson on
the shoulder The wnshboard haH
been known for 200 yenrs What was
easier than to make friction run n mu
sic box to soothe the sorrowful lull
tho nlllng or enthuse the discouraged
It would have saved thousands of lives
nuuunlly prevented thousands of sui
cides nnd yet no one thought of it
Thompson shake hnnds Its the sec

grave of my grandfather 1 never think
of It without the tears coming to my

Do you want to be sued for these
nccouuts demanded the lawyer when
he could got In a word
And your rewnrd for trusting me is
this continued the mnjor the salary
of 20000 Is only n starter Ill doublo

and vows nnd muttcrlngs and some
one went slowly down stairs

The time wns long befo de wall
Little Iodine Brown was a slave as
were his mother sister nnd brothers
Ills father Velvet Brown hnd been
enabled by n stroke of good fortune to
purchase Ills own freedom nnd 20 acres
of ground nnd his wife Blissful and
her five small children were permitted
by the old master to live In Velvets
cabin Blissful worked at the man
sion encli day and returned to the enbin
nt night while the children worked for
their father to pay for their keeping
Velvet hnd n little hoard of money
which was growing slowly to be used
when n sufficient nniount was saved
for the purchase of BllssfuPs freedom
After mammy was freed a fund wns
to be started to purchase one of the
children Marine the eldest and nil
her little brothers shared Velvets la
bors and worked onrly nnd Into Iodine
the youngest wns but C yenrs of age
and his only tnsk was keeping the old
mnsters hogs from breaking through
the brush fench into the peanut patch
When the hogs came near the fence
snlfflng the air Iodine would rush
from his lair and beat them with a
cudgel until they fled back Into Uie
scrub pine underbrush
The big red razorback called by Io
dine Old Brlcky made many at
tempts to get Into the pennut patch
nnd his persistence wns almost a match
for the boys vigilance
Hot tears hnd coursed In shiny black
rivulets down Iodines fnce In the
morning ns he stood on a stump gaz
ing nfter Velvet nnd Blissful who
were trudging down the lnne toward
the old masters mansion followed by
Mnrine Lucifer Tndgum nnd Boots
on their way to Savnnnnh to witness
the celebration of Washingtons birth
day by the military company of the
city When the disappointed boy
knew that his father was well out of
hearing he shook his fist and stamped
his bare foot upon the stump and
shouted Yor mean Yor mean Yor
mennl
But the guardian of the goobers
could not spend much time In hurling
Invectives from the stump Soon he
snw Old Brlcky emerge from the scrub
pines followed by a dozen shotes nnd
then there wns work for Iodine to do
It seemed to hlra that the hogs were
never bo persistent nnd bold ns they
wero that morning They gnve It up
after an hours effort howeyer and
wandered bnck toward the mansion
Having then a respite from his In
bor Iodine went over to the three acre
lot where Velvets cow and pigs were
kept This wns a peculiar piece of
ground There were hundreds of de
pressions In the earth where deep holes
had been excavated and partly filled
Many yenrs before a box of strange
nnd old fashioned clothing nrmor nnd
wenpoim wns received at the Savan

called for It and It was sold nt mic

for tho money A careful survey show

In this wild comer of the old masters
plantation and hides weio dug at n
distance of Hi feet north noilhwcHt
funn every tree and stump within ten
neres mound the Indicated spot Final
ly the seai cli wns abandoned When
Velvet ottered to buy some land funn
his former master this wild corner
was sold to him lie had done a deal
of digging for the treasure but had
long since given up the search
Iodine became Interested lu a small
hole which had been tiuidu by some
nnlmal In the side of one of the oxen
valloits and he began to probe Into It
with a stick
The boy had been an Interested spec
tator at the blowing up or slumpH with
gunpowder and he thought ns he peep
ed and poked Into the hole that he
could imike a noise mid celebrate
Washingtons birthday by exploding a
charge of powder In the bunow lie
inn to the cabin and brought out Vel
vets old powderhorn ami began the
preparations for his celebration In
dine knew he would probably have to
suffer punishment but no matter He
must do something to celebrate the
day lie poured Into the hole n copious
charge of powder mid then putting In
a small cane which hnd been boied out
for plpchtcms he filled this with he
explosive nlso Then ho pounded the
earth about the cane until the cnvlty
was tightly closed
After several feints he touched the
lighted match to the top of tho reed
ami inn He had not tnken more than
three steps when the explosion came
He wns thrown to the ground by the
concussion nnd wns nearly covered by
the shower of dirt that fell upon him
He was uninjured however and turn
ed his intention to the hole In the
giound Theie was a little yellow
stieak In the loose dirt nt the bottom
of the hole nnd with n stick he uncov
ered the object which proved to be n
dead chipmunk
Mils be mo ehimunlcs n dlsn In de
hole said Iodine as he began ngaln
to scratch away the dirt Soon he
struck something hard which made a
peculiar hollow sound nnd he took
away more dirt and uncovered a
brown scnly Iron object The urchins
curiosity was aroused and lying fiat
upon the ground he used stick and
fingers to uncover more of the iron
He snw that It was a large round ob
ject with thiee little horns sticking
out like the wrops of hair on Ma
rines head and then he knew whnt It
wns
Old Brlcky came out of the brush
closely followed by the spotted shotes
sniffed the nlr suspiciously and then
trotted straight to the peanut field
fence AIns for poor Velvet Brown Ills
bright dream of the big crop of White
Lady goobers which he expected to
market In the summer wns soon to be
shattered
I gwlne t git dis kll outn hynh fo
my mammy muttered the boy for
getful of his trust nnd nil unconscious
of the raid upon the field Ho was
soon nble to move the kettle nnd a
poor and badly used up kettle It wns
Iodine soon realized that his prize was
of little value Then lie bethought
him of the other chipmunk nnd turned
ngaln to the hole His eyes bulged out
with surprise ns he snw another ket
tle smaller than the first standing up
right In the ground It was not empty
like the other but was filled with yel
low and black pieces of money
De plts money shouted Iodine
ne tried to lift the kettle from the hole
but he hnd not strength to move It
Running to the well he brought the
drinking gourd filled it with gold mid
carried It to the house Trip after

my fm ole mnuss until he had all the
gold and silver piled In n heap upon
the bed A big yellow piece tumbled
from the pile nnd Iodine Btruck It
bnck nnd snld Gl bnck dar Ole
Brlcky And then he thought of the
peanut field nnd the old red razorback
nud the shotes nud he rushed out of
the house and n round to the hog pas
ture Faint nud sick nt heart he saw
the hogs In the ruined field
Casting aside all thought of Wash-
lugtons hlrthda1 and the pirates gold
Iodine seized his club and made war
upon the hogs Ills work done ho
tin on himself Into his mossy nest nail
wept and willed upon the hogs all
the abusive woids his tongue could
frame In no other way could he re
llcc IiIk conscience and the fearful ap
prehension of what would take place
after Vehet letutued
When the sun had gone Imlf uay
dovMi the western sky he saw Velvet
and Blissful and the ehlldieii leluru

lug mid he could not haulsh fiotu his
thoughts the big black strap which
hung upon the cabin wall As his

The Irate father strode Into the call
In unmoved by Iodines tears mid en
treaties Blissful lingered by the pea
nut Held Her heart bled for the little
truant Hearing no outcry she soon
began to wonder If the strap could
have been lost Presently Velvet up

Blissful rushed Into the cabin close
ly followed by the children They felt

heaps of fieedom nnd comfort and
Joy Their ears drank In the sounds
of Its sliding and rolling mid clinking
as they would have drunk In music
from the harps of paradise
Old Brlcky led the held again
through the brush fence mid they
rooted and smacked their Jaws over
