Qulokeand.
Quicksand differs from beach and
other sand In that the Individual
(rains have becoiuo worn by water
or wind until tbe normal faceta and
angles have been abraded and each
grain has become more or less spher

reduced to the minimum and the bed
doe not pack when dry and when wet
behaves like a fluid. Tbe depth of
qulckaaud Is conditioned by the deith
of the hardpan or other compact ma
terial upon which the sand rests.

I wat tall.lu' with Mainly Simmon
t'other day. 'I was tellln' her about my
crops, Just how much wheat I'd tuk
In, how iuii- Ii corn and produce, and
ended u; by conlMiu' to her that I'd
put In t'i hank iiiMo'ii ?!i) over and
uliove cxpci.icH, Hi In' and all that.
Miuidy'd a nb e gal. 1 wouldn't 'a' told
anylxxl;,- cl what I told her. It seem
ed like I was tellln' It to myself.
"I-anil Kukitt, Mr. Itanih-kel," aald
Mandy, "how light you do stick to
yer farm und yer crops and the money
yer pull In' In the bunk! Ain't y' ever
goln' to think about gettln' married
and liavl. s'-n.o one to leave all yer
fortune to wheu y' die'"
Sonieho.v I'd never thought o' that.
I'd fe!t loiics'.me like eveiilu'a now and
then, and v.hen I d had a stroke o'
luck I feit i.iii l a like teilln some un
about it. That' the reason why I tole
Mundy how nun h profit I'd made
durin' lust seasuii. I says to Mandy
wheu she talked ulxmt my gettln' some
uu to lente my cumin's to, says I:
"I dutiiio nny gal as would have me,
and a man can't murry unless he's got
a gul."
"Why. Mr. Liimh !;el," says Mundy,
"1 doi.'t reckon you'd have any trouble
ou tliut score. 1 was Ktaudlu' lookln'
at a gal t'other day, und she said souie
pln to bie. I couldn't hear what It
was, but somehow I reckoued It was
about you. I asked her to write It
down, and she did. What do you
s'pose it was?"
"I duiuio."
"It was 'I wish Jeb Ianilckel would
propose to mcr.' "
I was tuk Hut aback. I didn't know
any gul that had eveu looked at me
that a way. I asked Mundy who the
gal was, but she wouldn't tell me.
She chuckled and said I might ask
her three questions, to which she
would answer truthfully, provided I
didn't ask the gal's name. I began
by askin' her where she was wheu
she was talkiu' to the gal, and she
said she wa:; hi the I'.viu' room at
home. Then I asked her hy Fhe
couldn't hear what too gul said, and
she answered that there was gluss be
tveou her and the other gal.
'"Oh," I says, "a'up was Ktanilin' out
om the porch or hi Uic yard, and the
winder was shut down."
Mandy ill '.n t k iy uothlu' to this, but
alio l.irfed lit to kill herself. I'd asked
her two ('ii s-loi:s mid had oue iiiu;v
to ask. Tin- only thing 1 (oul.l think
of fur tills last question was, "Where
was the uul when she writ down what
you said she did?" 1 asked her this.
and she sa d the gul was In the same
ruoiii with her.
"I dou't want her," says 1.
"Why not?" asked Mandy, serlour
Ilke.
'Cause she must be deaf and
duuiti."
With that. Mandy like to split her
sides lnrfin'. I didn't like belli' made
fun of that a-way, and I looked It
With that, Mandy looked sorry and
B.illcd up to me ami cuddled me a lit
tle, mid S.UC says, gays she: '
Mr. P.aniiikel, it wouldn't be right
for me to give a gal away like thut '
Dut 1 11 te'l you what I'll do. She
often conies to see n- Saturday even-
i 's. If you'd care to drop In some
Saturday evenlii' If she comes In, you'll
see hor."
That's fu'r." says I. "I'll uouie next
Saturday. How will I know when a t
gal come in she's the gal that was
tnlkin' to Mi?"
"Oh. I'll put you ou," says Mandy,
and with thut she went away, with a
spark in her eye nn 1 n smile ou her
lips. S'.ie looked so pretty that I k.tuda
wished she and I was keeplu' house
tosoiluT ami there wasn't auy other
gul had anything o do with It.
Saturday night I put on my store
eh-1 lies ami a boiled sh'.vt and went
round to Mumly's. She seemed glad to.
see u.o, but : be said she didn't reckon
the g:'.l I wanted U see would drop In.
She sat by uh ou the sofy nml tole me
that If I hiul iinythlug on my uilud 1
felt like gittlu' of I was welcome to
do It.
Faciu' the sofy was nn old fa diloned
desk or library cr suthiu with a look
In' glass ou it. We could see ourselves
In the glass. I asked Mandy what part
o' tho it om she was In when the gal
said whet she did to her. Mundy aald ,
she was ait tin' on the sofy.
"I (hurt the Pl wis outside." says I.
"If you wu slttin' on the sofy you
i ouldu't see any one outside."
Miuidy chuckle,'..
"You couldn't see nobody ouless y'
saw yerself In the lookln' glass yon
der." Mandy didn't say nothin' to this; the
looked down at her knees and smooth
ed her dress with her hands.
"Iio y' think the gal'll drop In to
night?'' says I.
"I duuuo," says Mundy.
"Well," I says, "1 don't keer whether
she does or not. I'm mighty well satis
fied to bo with you, Mandy. If you say
so I won't wait for t'other gul. Any
time, you want to marry me aud come
,ind take keer of my house you klu
do it."
"Oh, Mr. Itarnlckel," sue says, "you
have spoke too lute. The other gal's
here."
"Where Is uhe't" nays I.
"I wok Ii, the glass."
1 reckon it wus dnwiir'&'ht smart o"
mo to see what she meant. It didn't
rile me a bit. Why should It? I'll tell
'. It was 'ciuise she and the other
was one and the suuie gal. I wonder If
she hadn't been talkiu' to herself hi
the glass.
