a public timepiece twfore a jeweler's

hours of dnlllnnef
There was a
steadfast rule that he return direct
from Hunday school, and Runday rules
were lm(>ortant tiecause on that day
there was his father, always at home
and at hand. (leriluusly ready for ac­

boyhood la the almost continuous strain

the constant and harassing neceaelty
for explanations of every natural act

deepening twilight as rapidly as poaal

Penrod made up hta mt ml In what

for things I couldn't help nor any oth­

by a cottage and a lady put her bead

band was drunk and whipping bar

Ho I went In and tried to g»-t bold Of
thia drunken lady’s busband where he
was whipping their baby daughter, but
he wouldn't pay any attention, and I
told her 1 ought to be getting home,
but she kej»' on aakln' ma to atay"—
At this point he reached the corner
of his own yard, where a coincidence
not only checked ths rehearsal of his
eloquence but happily obviated all oc­

descended a troubled lady tn black

any relief; there may have l»een even a

altogether dissimilar to that of an

Bulls and Bears.
The Stock Exchnnge use of th« term
"bear” Is with reference to the animals
pulling down. The bear pulls down
prices; so In the other direction the bull
tosses them up. Originally the exprea
slon was "a bearskin Jobber,’’ applied
to a person who sold a bearskin before
be had caught bls bear. Th« bMrskin .

through the batin'*Him door. "(Jude

"What are you talking about?" de­
manded Margaret, turning from her
mirror. "Uncle John sent them here.
Why shouldn't be let them stay?”
Penrod looked crestfallen. "Then he
hasn't taken to drink?"
"Certainly not!” She emphasized the
denial with a pretty peal of eoprano
laughter.
"Then why,” asked her brother
gloomily, "why did Aunt Clara look so
worried when she got here?"
“Good gracious! Don't people worry
•bout anything except somebody’s
drinking? Where did you get such an

CHAPTER V.
School.
EXT morning, when be bad
one« more resumed the dread­
ful burdeu of education, it
seemed Infinitely duller. And
yet what pleasanter sight Is there than
■ schoolroom well filled with children
of tlxise sprouting years just be for«
th« teens? The casual visitor, gazing
from the teacher's platform upon
these busy little beads, needs only a
blunted memory to experience the
most agreeable and exhilarating s«u-
satlona 81111. for the greater part the
children are unconscious of tb« happi­
ness of their condition, for nothing is
more pathetically true than that we
"never know when we ar« well off."
The boys In a public school are leas
aware of their happy state than are
th« girt*, and of all the boys In hie
room probably Penrod himself bad the
least appreciation of hta felicity.
He eat staring at an open page of a
textbook, but not studying, not even
reading, not even tblnklug. Nor was
be lost In a reverie. His mind’s eye
was shut, as bls physical eye might
well have been, for the optic nerve,
flaccid with ennnl. conveyed nothing
whatever of the printed page upon
which the orb of vision was partially
focused. Penrod was doing something
very unusual and rare, something al­
most never n<-compltahed except by
colored people or by a boy tn school
on a spring day—be was doing really
nothing at all. He was merely a state
of lietng.
From the street a sound stole In
through the open window, and abhor-
ring nature began to fill the vacuum
called Penrod Schofield. for the sound
was the spring song of a mouth organ
coming down the sidewalk. The win­
dows were Intentionally above the lev­
el of the eyes of the seated pupils, but
the picture of the musician was plain
to Penrod, painted for him by a quali­
ty in the runs awl trills partaking of
the oboe, of the calliope and of cats in
anguish—an excruciating sweetness ob­
tained only by the wallowing, wallop­
ing yellow-pink palm of a hand whose
back was Kongo black and ahlny. The
music came down the street and pass
ed beneath the window, accompanied
by the care free shuffling of a pair of
old shoe« scuffing syncopations on the
cement sidewalk. It passed Into the
distance. became faint and blurred:
was gone. Emotion stirred In Penrod
a great and poignant desire, but (per­
haps fortunately) no fairy godmother
made her appearance. Otherwise Pen
rod would have gone down the street
In a black skin, playing the mouth or­
gan, and an unprepared colored youth
would bars found himself enjoying
educational advantages for which be
had no ambition whatever.
Roused from perfect apathy, the boy
cast about the schoolroom an eye
wearied to nausea by the perpetual
vision of the neat teacher upon the
platform, the backs of the heads of the
pupils In front of him and the mo­
notonous
stretch«« of
blackboard
threateningly defaced by arithmetical
formula and other Insignia of torture.
Above tb« blackboard the walls of the
high room were of white plaster­
white with the qualified whltenesa of
old snow tn a soft coal town. This
dismal expanse was broken by four
lithographic portraits, votive offerings
of a thoughtful publisher. The por­
traits were of good and great men.
kind men. men who loved children.
Their faces were noble and benevo­
lent
Rut the lithographs offered the
only root for the eyes of children fa-
tigrted by th« sverlastlng sameness of
the schoolroom
Ixmg day after long
day. Interminable week In and inter-
mtnabte *e»k «•». vtaft month on vast
month, th« pupils sat with thana four
portraits twaaslng kta aeass test up«n
N
them. The faces became permanent
In the consciousness of the children;
they Ixx-atue au obsession. In and out
of school the <-bll<lren were neiVr free
of them. The four faces haunted th«
minds of children falling asleep. They
hung u|>on the nilinls of children wak-
big at night; they rose forelxxllngly In
(he tn I nils of children waking in the
morning; they became monstrously
alive in the minds of children lying
sick of fever. Never while the chil­
dren of that schoolroom lived would
they tie able to forget one detail of the
four lithographs. The band of Ixmg-
fellow was fixed for them forever in
hla beard. (| d by a simple and un­
conscious association of Ideas Penrod
Hchofleld was accumulating an antipa­
thy for the gentle Ixingfellow. and for
James Rusnell I-owell, and for Ollvsr
Wendell Holmes, and for John Green­
leaf Whittier which would never per
mlt him to iieruse a work of one of
those great New Englanders without a
feeling of personal resentment.
His eyes fell slowly and lnlmicaDy
from the brow of Whittier to the braid
of reddish hair belonging to Victoria«
Riordan, the little octoroon girl who
eat directly in front of him. Vlcto-
rine's back was as familiar to Penrod
as the necktie of Oliver Wendell
Holmes. Ro was her gayly colored
plaid waist. He bated the waist as
he hated Vlctorine herself without
knowing why. Enforced companlon-
I ship In large quantities and on an equal
j basis I>etween the sexes appears to
sterilize the affections, and schoolroom
romances are few.
Victorinc’s hair wae thick and the
, bricklsh glints In It were beautiful, but
■ Penrod was very tired of it. A tiny
• knot of green ribbon finished off the
’ braid and kept it from unraveling, and
beneath the ribbon there was a final
wisp of hair which was Just long
enough to repose upon Penrod's desk
when Vlctorine leaned back In her
1 seat. It was there now. Thoughtful­
ly be took the braid between thumb
and forefinger and. without disturbing
Vlctorine, dipped the end of It and the
green ribbon into the Inkwell of his
desk.
He brought hair and ribbon
forth dripping purple ink and partially
dried them on a blotter, though, a mo-
ment later, when Vlctorine leaned for-
ward, they were still able to add a
I few picturesque touches to the plaid
waist
Rudolph Krauss, across the aisle
from Penrod. watched the operation
with protuberant eyes, fascinated. In­
spired to imitation, he took a piece of
chalk from bls pocket and wrote
“Rats" scroas the shoulder blades of
the boy In front of him. then looked
across appealingly to Penrod for to­
kens of congratulation. Penrod yawned.
Half the members of the class pass­
ed out to s recitation room, the eta
purpled Vlctorine smong them, and
Miss Hpence started the remaining half
through the ordeal of trial by rnatbe-
I matii-a. Several boys and girls were
sent to the blackboard, and Penrod,
spared for the moment, followed their
operations a little while with his eyes,
but not with his mind; then, sinking
deeper In his seat, limply abandoned
the effort. .His eyes remained open,
but saw nothing. The routine of the
arithmetic lesson reached bis ears In
familiar, meaningless sounds, but be
heard nothing, and yet. thia time, he
was profoundly occupied.
He bad
drifted away from the painful land of
facta, and floated now in a new seu
of fancy which be had Just discovered.
Maturity forgets the marvelous real-
neas of a boy's day dreams, bow color­
ful they glow, rosy and living, and
bow opsque the curtain closing down
between the dreamer and the actual
world. That curtain Is almost sound
proof, too. and causes more throat
trouble among parents than is bus
pected.
The nervous monotony of the school
room inspires a sometimes unl>earabie
longing for something astonishing to
bappeu. and aa every boy's funds men
tai desire is to do something astonish
Ing himself. so as to be the center of
all human interest and awe, it was nat­
ural that Penrod should discover in
fancy the delightful secret of self levi­
tation. He found, in this curious se­
ries of imaginings, during the lesson
in arithmetic, that the atmosphere may
be navigated as by a swimmer under
water, but with Infinitely greater ease
and with perfect comfort In breathing.
In his mind he extended bis arms
gracefully, at a level with hla shoul­
ders. and delicately paddled the air
with his hands, which at one« caused
him to be drawn up out of hla seat and
elevated gently to a position about mid­
way between the floor and the celling.
Where be came to an equilibrium and
floated; a sensation not the lees ex­
quisite bscauae of the screams of hla
fellow pupils, appalled by the miracle.
Mias Hpence herself was muue! and
frightened, bnt he only smiled down
carelessly upon her when ahe com­
manded him to return to earth, ami
then, when she climbed upon a desk
to pull him down, be quietly paddled
himself a little higher. leaving bls toes
Just out of her reach, Next be swam
through a few »low somersaults to
show hta mastery of the new art. and.
with the shouting of the dumfounded
scholars ringing in hla ears, turned on
his side and floated swiftly out of th,
window. Immediately rising above the
housetops. <hlle jmple in the street
below him shrieked, and a trolley car
stopped dead tn wonder.
With almost no exertion he paddled
himself, many yards at a stroke, to
the girls' private school where Marjo­
rie Jones was a pupil Marjorie Jones
of the amber curls and the golden
voice! Ix>ng before the "Pageant of
the Table Round" she bad offered Pen

the ceiling like an eacaped toy balloon
■be fell upon her knees beside her lit­

tion:
"Oh, Penrod!"
He negligently kicked a globe from
the high chandelier and, smiling —»id­
ly, floated out through the hall to the
front «tepa of th« school, while Marjo­
rie followed. Imploring him to grant
her one kind look.
In the street an enormous crowd bad
gathered, headed by Miss Spence and
a bras« »«and. and a cheer from a hun­
dred thousand throats «hook the very
ground as , Penrod swam overhead.
Marjorie knelt upon the steps and
watched adoringly while Penrod took
the drum major'.) baton and. perform-’
Ing sinuous evolutions above the
crowd, led the band. Then be threw
the baton so high that it disappeared
from sight. But he weDt swiftly after
it, a double delight, for be had not
only the delicious sensation of rocket­
ing safely up and up Into the blue sky,
but also that of standing tn the crowd
below, watching and admiring hlmaelf
as be dwindled to a speck, disappear­
ed and then, emerging from a cloud,
came speeding down, with the baton
in his bend, to the level of the tree-
tops, where he beat time for the band
and the vast throng and Marjorie
Jones, who all united In the "Star
Rpangled Banner” tn honor of his
aerial Achievements. It was a great
moment.
It was a great moment, but some­
thing seemed to threaten it The face
of Miss Spence looking up from the
crowd grew too vivid—unpleasantly
vivid. Rbe was tieckonlng him and
shouting: "Come down. Penrod Scho­
field.' Penrod Hchofleld. come down
here!” He could hear her above the
band and the singing of the multitude»
She seemed intent on s[>ollfng every­
thing. Marjorie Jones was weeping to
show how sorry she was that she had
formerly slighted him and throwing
kisses to prove that she loved him, but
Miss Spence kept jumping between
him and Marjorie, lnceosantly caning
his name.
He grew more and more Irritated
with her. He wsrf the most important
I»enion in the world and was engaged
