John Boyce was a village car,euter, ami it cannot be suiil of him that he was a hardworking man. As a matter of fact, be was liioliued to be lazy. He bud a wife who was regarded as easy going, and the couple did not cut much of u figure lu the estimation of the villagers. The only child of the Hoyces when they had been married more than seven years was tt son named Bob, six years old. He wumu'I dull, and he wuh not considered unusually smart Just au average boy. If tmy ne had predicted that he waa going to turn Hint county Inside out before he reach ed the age of seveu lie would huve been looked upon ss li'ht iu the head. Tho boy started his cureer at the breakfast table one morning when be said: "Father, did the lightning ever strike any thing Id LUllsduleV" "Not that I remember," was the reply. "Hut It's going to." "How do you know?" "Dreamed it last night'' Wiait'll It strike?" "The Methodist meeting houxe. It's going to strike the spire and bust It all to pieces and then burn the euurcu down." 'Hob. the cat must have been lying on your stomach." said the mother, who was somewhat impressed by his earnestness. "No. she wasn't." "It ain't worth minding," snld the fitt her its he left the table to fill his nine. An hour later lie met the pastor of the church on the street and told him what yonns Bob had dreamed. Indigestion." replied the good man. On the afternoon of the third day lerstorm came. While the clouds were bunking up the boy cunie In from play nnd said to his mother: "Now you wabh out and you'll see the church struik!" And so It hap pened. When It came to be generally known that the boy hnd dreamed It. it was commented on us a curious thlnt. but It wits the start of his career as a dream er. It wim about two weeks Inter that he said to his father: 'Father, they are going to steal Mr Knrlght's black horse." "How do you know?" I dreamed It last ni?lit. Tu horse was in a lot. ami it strnnge limn put a bridle on him nnil rode liiin off." I Hiring the day the carpenter saw Mr. Fiulglit und told him of the dream and advised that the horse be locked in the barn o' nights. The owner laughed heartily and replied: "Don't let Hob ilieiim that my mother-in law Is coming on to live with me." Two nights later the horse disap peared and was never liemil of ugalu. Young Rob didn't rush the dreaming business. It was four weeks later that he said: "Father, Mr. Jones, the constable, is going to be hurt." "How?" was asked. "I dreamed that a man hurt him." "What sort of a looking man?" "JIls nose was reddish, and he had bushy whiskers and waa lu bis shirt sleeves." The constable was told, and he smiled and replied: "Hoyce. do you believe In your boy's dreams?" "Yes, I think so." "Well, to show you that I don"t here's a live dollar bill I'll bet against a fifty cent piece that this dream of bis turns out to be nonsense." Mr. lioyce lished up the coin, and the wager was made. That was in the forenoon lu the afternoon he drove out Into the country to serve some pa Krs on u farmer, and while talking with the man's wife at the door he was bit ou the head with a club by the hiisliaud, who sueaked up behind. The assaulter hud a reddish nose and bushy whiskers. The constable was lu bed for two months, and the farmer ran away to avoid arrest. The next dream was that Deacon Uoodliue would lose hia two cows if be didn't shut them up. When told of it he replied: "They must take me for an old fool to think I would heed anybody's dream." "But that Hoyce boy's dreams have come true." Two days later the deacon's cows were run over by a train on the rail road. This dreaming was uucituny. It was dangerous It got on the nerves of a whole county. In old Salem days they would have denounced that boy as a wizard sud roasted him t the Make. As it was, they could do nothing but ask each other what should be done. It was it lightning rod man that solv ed the problem that puzzled all others. "I'm not a superstitions man." he said, as all other men say. "but 1 don't want that boy droamiuji that I fell from the roof of a burn and broke my back Let's buy the family to move a thousand miles away and dream for some other community." A committee had a talk with Mr. Hoyce, and he agreed for the sum of $7.tK In cash to take his family and go nest as far as the west extended. The money was raised, and the family went, but It has never hoeu kno'rn la Hillsdale inst whore they settled or if the boy Bob kept up the dream busi ness Confirm oxt.

At tt cafe In one of the principal boulevards of Purls sat Aleksel Lu-kit.-b. a Russian gentleman, twirling bis mustaches. He had good reason for self congratulation. High in favor with the czar, he hnd long beeu em ployed in the work of hunting dowD certain persons suspected by Kussia. He had just followed one of his mas ter's bitterest euetnies to Paris. se.-ur-ed Ids arrest und. by permission of tile French government, was on the mor row to take him to Russia. A gentleman iitul lady entered the cafe und glanced "t the occupants, and the woman, who was veiled, seeing I.U kit. h. though he did not notice Iter, sui.l something to her companion, and they took seats directly opisiMite the Russian. When for the first time he looked ut her his eyes rested Uimiu tier curiously as If there was something about her figure be could not see her face, which was still veiled that wus familiar to him. He continued to re gard her. studying where he could have seen her, till Iter companion called out in n voice that every one lu the cafe could hear: "1 will trouble you, m'sleil. to cease your Insulting stare." The Russian apologised, but the oth er grew more and more violent till it w as evident that he was Intending to foive u quarrel. His insults caiue so thi.-k that there was but one recourse for Lukitch lie tossed his card at the mint and turned bis back. Meanwhile the lady hat! retired to a distance, and her escort, having produced his own card, Joined her. Before midnight friends of the two men had arranged a meeting. Day was dawning and the bells of Paris at a distance were striking the hour of 4 when two carriages, soon followed by a third, drew up in a road In the environs and a party from each passed to an open space beside a stream. The man who the night be fore had forced tho quarrel advanced to Lukitch and said: "Penult me, m'sieu. to apologize for my Insulting language last liiKht. or, rather, to explain It. Early in the evening n lady asked uie to escort her in u round of visits to the restaurants in a search for sumo one she wished to find. When she saw you she asked me to take the course I did. promising that the n flair should be taken off my hands. M'sieu. I have the honor to present your real antagonist." A figure, smaller than the others present, who had been standing; back, advanced, threw aside n cloak and re vealed that she was a woman. She wus dressed in tt tijjht fitting costume, with ii short skirt, such us girls wear in a gymnasium. Tbe moment Lukitct saw her he started. "Varla!" he exclaimed. "Vnrla Ivanovna. at your service. Aleksel Lukitch." "What does this mean?" he asked in a tmie that Indicated be knew it meant a good deal to him. "That the day of vengeance has come." The others of both parties drew neat intent on this strange turn in the af fair. The woman continued: "You are a faithful servant of your master, Aleksel Lukitch. He rewards you for your service to him; it Is my purt to punish you for your treachery to me. i'ou made love well, Aleksel. so well thnt you won my heart. Yon hnd fine revolutionary sentiments, so fine that they won my confidence and I revealed our purposes to you. Do you see these shrunken cheeks, these prematurely white hairs? Well, these come from prison life in Siberia, where you sent me. It wns during these bit ter days in that dark wintry country thnt 1 conceived this purpose, and every day, except when I took part in : hunger strike In which we were try ing to end our sufferings by death, I renewed my vow of vengeance. That vengeance was to have been murder. I have changed it to death in a hon orable way in the eyes of the world. Ou guard!" Tiie woman spoke us though not for a moment did she doubt the Issue of the combat. To her enemy her words seemed prophetic. The hand In which he held his sword trembled. He heard the wail of the victims he had sent to Siberia. Above this wall came faintly the words "On guard!" spoken sharply by tils second to call him to himself. It failed to rouse him. Those looking on wondered. His condition was so piti ful, he seemed such easy prey, that liotli parties looked to see the woman throw down her sword and give him his life. "On guard!" shouted the men of both parlies as matadors strive to anger a drooping bull. A'eksel Lukitch heard and roused himself to die. A few minutes Inter the woman threw down her sword nnd walked iniekly to her carriage. There was no womanly reaction. She did not shud der; she did not weep. This phase of woman's nature nt least for this one man whom she had killed had lonir ago been eliminated Alone she had come on to the field, and alone she drove nw.iy. She had sprung from whence no one knew and went no one kmw whither. No angel of vensenneo) appointed hy heaven to avenge sor rows heaped on it suffering children could have struck more mercilessly and with less shrinking. The Remedy. "Doctor.
