poatutaa aoundad on tny front door, and
nty good old hottavkieper, Mr. Duthll,
lirmiglit ma a latter In a well known
handwriting, It waa from nty neit beat
friend, Also Di.twy,
'I have ittet heard of voor arriral,

have a good time together. Dy the way,
I have my old trtah aurvaiit, Mike Drady,
with tue alill. I have InaUlled hi in aa
bnad wardrm, and barring aa accaalonal
uil.uke or two he atwompllahea hla dn
tine In a ntaaterly faahloa and look!
after my welfare aa of yora at tha tame
time. We might put np an old time
juke upon hi in. It would be fan. I will
meet yon In tit gig at Inch t tattoo to
morrow evening at 1. Don't fall. You
need nt reply to UiU, but jtut crane.
Your, aa In the old daya, Alec"
(if course I wouldn t fall, and It waa
too lafa to reply anyway, fur here It waa
I o'clock In the afternoon and be ei
pocted ma by 7. Tha tetter of oourte
waa writ urn the day onfora, aod "to
morrow" meant baiay.
Mike Urady waa a great, brawny Iriah-
man, devoted to Aleo, who bad found
bun a poor, elarvlng wait, had taken
bitn In, fed and clothed htm and made
him hla body arrvaut, Talet, aecretary
and general fartotnm. TUa great heart
of tha irtahman hatl warmed to hit bene-
f w-tor, and he loved Alec a dug lovet
hit maatnr. He had grown ao with
Alro'a life that neither could do without
the other, lkaidne, there were two very
tirung bond which snited thee men
more cloaely even than grail lode and af
fetlon. They both loved biuum and
diafs.
When I jumped out of tie rat at Inch
tallon my dear old chum lAaoey waa
waiting for ma on the platform. A boy
waa hiddtng hi. bora outaide. We did
not waata a great dral of tlui over con
gratulaliona, for It waa a cold, dark
night, and wa had a drive of Ave inik
to make. Wa were toon In the coay old
faahlonrj gig, which all country doctort
In (treat lirtuin are to fond of, wrapped
up In our ruga, tha boy had left the
boree'a bead and we were trottlug faet
ahum the froaen country road.
Now about tha joke w ara to pot up
on Mike, i aald, wnen ne naa gnoe
timie dutunre. "What are w to doT
Then Alec, the cotifonnded raaral, on-
folded a atmpl llttl plan. When Hike
came down to the door to meet ut the
doctor would tell hlw In a quiet ton to
thow tue Dm hone and take ut to my
mom. Mike would never iwoognlie me,
for I bad grown a hraltby beard which
completely dirtilad me, and ha would
take mo for a new patient The joke
wonld he tinrucnae when he dlacovered
hit tuUtake. The arheme teemed a gtort
out one and I entered Into It with avid
ity. W bat a fool I wa not to am!! a rat.
Why, I knew that Alee Dlaney waa the
bitfgvat practical joker of our da.
Well, all turned out a w anticipated.
Mike earn to the door and amitted nt
out of oar wrapt and Into the grateful
warmth of tit big hall. waa In no-
wiae altered, but a Alee bad aald he
did not recognise me.
Mike," aald DUuyand I did not
notic the wtttkot bit titi later optio a
he taid it "take tlilt gentleman over
the hooas first, thow htm every polite-
neat and than to hit roomt by that time
dinner wtil b ready. W are hungry.
I dare eay he may like a bath. "
YU, aorr, I will attend to him, and
be did attend to ma.
Wa went all over tha building, np one
ttaircaa aad dawn another, along cor
ridor, peeping Into roomt and viaiting
the billiard room, recreation hall, read
ing room, dining ball and everywhere.
I noticed a peculiar action on the part
of Mike, but I put tt down merely to hit
ordinary precautionary hablta. Ilecloeud
tTery door behind ut. And he never al
lowed ma to gut out of hit reach, lie
alo eoewed to keep a very careful eye
uon my every movement, But thit I
put down to the habit ha had got Into
from k,K long among lunatic.
Th44 fegun to uotloe another tome
what atrantre thing. WbeneTer we met
a patient Mike tpoke kindly and gently
to him, but when wa met a warder or
curat Mike teemed to throw out a hint
to be mora than ordinarily watchful,
and I taw two or three timet that the
keeper took a clote look at me, at If
tiling roe tip. I ttand nearly tix feet
and am a fairly ttrong matt, an ugly cut
tomer wheu thoroughly aroueed.
I'rceotitly I found that Mike and I were
pot alouo, Two of the wardon were fol
lowing u everywhere.
I waa getting ravenoualy hungry and
toiuewhat tired. Our five mile ride had
given me an enonuoui appetlta, and I
began to think thlt thing of wandering
all over a big house without my host to
"peraonally conduct my tour" wa a
tompwhat atrnnga buaineaa, and not
Suite (u aooonlanot with, tha anolen,

to Mika and titidi
"Well, don't you think ifa about time
we found my room? I'd like to get a
wanh and eo down to dinner."
"Thafa all right." ha aald. "Yer
room' on thlt floor) ye'U be ther In a
nilnnte. and mavtie I'll help ye watb."
There wax a little abruptnee in hit
manner of tpeech that I did not quite
like, and "thit floor" waa right at the
ton of the bouse in the lnnauo quarter,
right away from the doctor' part ot th
bulldlnr. - However. I did not know but
that there mkht bo tome means of
reaohlrtg th doctor't apartmenU by go
ing along tha corridor.
t'flera yon are," tq M(e, "no. to.
I'Hut thit it a patient' room," I tald.
"Snroly Vr, DUney doesn't intend to
put me in here,"
una doe, though, and ye'll find yer-
Alf entirely comfortable. Yell find all
ye want and the attention will be per
fect." "But I don't care to ttay in thlt part
of the honee. If Dinner haa no better
accommodation than thi for a triond he
hiwn't met In three year, I'll get out and
eo back to Aberdeen."
"And I think youH conclude to ttay
where ye are," tald Mike with a funny
little chuckle. ,
""Uom,miw, you'd "bettor begtu"lo
nndraat quietly, fur that bath la waltla
forya."
It began to dawn opoa me that Mike
really thought he had got a new patient,
and I laughed out loud at the joka.
"Why. Mike," I aald, "do yon moan
hi tall m you don't reoognlu your old
friend? Yon aurely ar not soder to
unpreatlon that I am a patient. " .
"Oh, that' all right I raoognlaa my
old friend very well, and I haven't tald
yt waa a patient Only I'm Wiling yon
to harry out of tharn clothe aod Ink

"It la about time to ttop thl fooling."
( aald. "Now lot in paw; 1 want to go

"Now let m paati fvt bad anoogh of
thia," I aald quietly, tut 1 waa getting

In tha face with auppreatad paaaton,
Tha affair wa getting beyond tha limit
of a joka, I ttopped forward a though

Now ther flatbed acroat my mind th
hundred of tiorie I bad beard aad read
of perfectly tana perton being aaot to
lunatic atylutu "to get them out of the

"careful treatment," they had become
literally raving lunatic. Would Mike
Brady drive me out of my mind?
By a big effort I na trained my anger
for a moment, and attempted to (peak
quietly.
"Now, Mike." I aald, "thl jok U

"Well hav to gag ye if y hoot, my

the more and thonted louder. "There 't
no one will hear ye, and well toon put

out of th room and returned In a min

The horror of th moment waa almoet

that I wa lu th handa of three Igno

With wonderful rapidity, thowing

My throat wa parched with terror

A Fatal Confaaaloa,
The weekly Buitctin of the American
Protective Tariff League, to break the
force of the evidence of the ineffective-
none of protection to raising wages ac
cumulating on all bauds, oonfesseethat
"wages will be reduced and advanced
from time to time In obedience to laws
beyond the power of man to control no
matter what kind of tariff we may
have, just as the price of wheat or beer
may be high one year and low tbe next"
After that, the few worklngmen who
are yet protectionist may well ask
themselves why they trnln with that
crowd. The sole ostensible reasou for a
protective tariff has been, in these later
yeara of MoKlnleylsiu, the maintenance
and increase of the wages of American
labor; aud we have been so often told
that our higher wngee are due to pro
tectlon, and that more protection would
make them higher yet, that some of us
have almost come to believe that wngee
really do ndvauoe and recede in obedl
euce to humau taritt laws. But now
comes one of the loudest shouters for
protection, with the assurance that all
thlslsamlstako, and that wnges are
utterly beyond human control, no mat
tor what kind of tariff we have. After
that, OAQdot should compel the protec
tionists to admit that since tt Is beyond
the power of man to control wages, it
would be better to leave their regula
tion to the power that does control
