By IfartJM JUctWocA. miUamt "1 think there ought to be a law gainst making wills," Jean said half tearfully. "So do I almost Aunt Mary an swered, with a little sigh. Thereat Jean began to laugh, a whim' leal, bubbling peal, good to hear. "If it was any other time I shouldn't mind not so very much," Annt Mary protested. "I'm bound to say It for your father, my brother John, he's as peaceable as can be until he's crowded real hard. I know he wouldn't ever hare gone out of his way to quarrel with Major Ilymes-but knowing poor, old Uncle Jimmy Jackson as he did, he was bound to stand up for that will it only said what the old man hsd told him over and over and over "I know," Jean Interrupted, then with laugh: "I know, too, aunty, darling, you're distressed because I I shall be left out of the Ilymee party. I do want to go, dreadfully, not so much on account of Rob Byrnes him self as to sea who all else Is there and what the Claytons will do to get s beau apiece" "II ml I believe you'd like to have a few beau yourself, miss," Aunt Mary retorted. Jean smiled and nodded. "But I wouldn't go gunning for them Clayton fashion not If I grew to the wan. nut tney are bound to marry somehow. They have no money to speak of, and can't well do anything else.' "I wish yon couldn't do anything else. Maybe then you wouldn't hold your head so high you never see me," somebody said through the open win dow. It was Rob Hymea, who had been eavesdropping these last three minutes. He went straight to Aunt Mary, kissed her handsomely and pat ted her hand, then turned reproachful eyes on Jean. "If you think mother and I mean to be drawn into this absurd quarrel you "all wb want is a ciiancs to batb EKB BPSAK rUB HEUSELF. clearly don't know the sort of folk we are. The case la just this unless you say you'll come there won't be any party' "Why, Rob, I'd love to, but how can I, with our fathers glaring and breath ing out threatening whenever they think of each other?" Jean walled. Rob snapped his fingers. "That for aU their rows," be said. "I hate to seem wanting in respect to my elders and betters neighborhood dignitaries, too but Squire John Bascom and Hen ry Ilymes are a pair of spoiled chil dren in spite of gray hairs and need to be disciplined accordingly." "Who's going to do ltr Rob dropped his eyes and answered meekly, "I propose to be a bumble Instrument in the bands of divine Providence and the Claytons." "Indeed! Tell us about it I don't believe there's anything to tell," Jean said, propping her toes together and laying ber hands primly In her lap. Rob filliped them delicately, then went on: "We all know those old gen tlemen have agreed ever since we two were, born that we were born on pur pose for each other. Indeed my father thinks my main reason for being Is to give him chance of calling you daughter. To bring them to their senses we must pretend not only to have taken up their quarrel, but that we are going to marry somebody else." "You'll have an excellent chance to do it If you say sweet things to Elsie Clayton," Jean said. "But It's differ ent with me. I don't know a soul I would dare propose to" "I know several who are simply dy ing for a chance to propose to you, though," Rob said gallantly, playing pigs-went-to-market with her fingers. Aunt Mary tried to look scandalized, but ended by laughing heartily. Jean drew down the corners of ber mouth and pretended to sigh, asklog: "Where shall I find them, Robby, dear? I am Imply pining to say 'Tea and Thanky to somebody." 'There's no time like the present nd yon have never accepted me out right," Rob retorted. "But at the par ty you are to smile your sweetest on Ben Lloyd-and Ben only. I know It's pretty tough on him, but be has prom ised not to mind. Seeing be can't have - Jqf ! you hluist'lf, he's rendy to do a man' part to help you gvt me." Then the three fell tulklng all at one. It waa late afternoon when Rob went heme, humming a love tuue and smiling as he rodo nlong. The Ilymes party turniHl out to be far and away the grandoat Hopewell neighborhood had ever aeeu. Notwlth standing, Major Ilymes got up the morning after with a seiixe of aching loss, lie sighed all through dressing and at breakfast swore because there were no waffles only biscuit muffins and batter cakes. At least be aatd that was the reason. Rob, with bis eyes on his plate and a general air of dreams, smiled and waited prudently for the storm to gather or blow over. But llghtulng struck him when he was least prepared for it Mid meal his fa ther turned square upon him, growling out: "Whereabouts in your travels did you leave your manners and your seuses? I think you had better go back and try to flud them." "What's the row, governor?" Rob de manded innocently. The major ex ploded: That's what I'd like to know. There must be row between you and Jeau Bascom last night you hardly were civil to her, but went tagging around after that Clayton creature." "There's the Bascom temper I'm afraid it's hereditary besides, Elsie Clayton says she would permit the minister to leave 'obey' In the mar riage service," Rob began. Ills father cut htm short "If mat ters have gone as far as that" be said, "Just you listen to this. Unless you inurry to suit me, you'll find that my will tie up things aa tight es that old simpleton, Jimmy Jackson, tried to tie up all he loft" "Why I I thought you disbelieved in the wlllT' Rob Interrupted. His father turned redder than ever, but went on, pounding the table hard between words. "Yea, sir, your wife must please me or you'll have hard sledding. Elsie Clayton, indeed! Look at your mother, air, and be properly ashamed of your taste." "I have nothing against Jean Das com," Rob began judiciously. "But she is taken up with Ben Lloyd. Then, too, she evidently takes her father's side just as I have taken yours"- Then you're fool for your pains, sir," the major fairly shouted. "Of course, she takes ber father's side- that's the natural, the right thing for woman. But you-lf you were' half man, you would have shown ber that you two bad nothing to do with the cae. You must be bewitched with the 1'Uytou fried egg eyes." "Not particularly," Rob said, mask Ing laugh with fit of coughing. "But 1 did make up to Jean, far enough to find out she would have nothing to say to me not unless you apologised to the squire, which I knew was out of the question." "Indeed! You bad better not know so much," Major Ilymes said wither Ingly. "But if that's the hitch, why. it's mighty easily strslghtened. Come along with me, sir. By George, It makes me think more than ever of Jean! If she sticks up this way for ber father what won't she do for a husband or a son?" live minutes afterward they were galloping together toward the Bancom place. As luck would have it, Squire Bascom met them just Inside the gate. Major Ilymes did not wait for a word of welcome. Twenty yards off he roar ed out: "Say, John Bascom, I've come to beg. your pardon and ask you for your daughter. Give 'em to me quick, clue I'll be ninking a fool will for other folks to quarrel over." "I reckon I've a right to ask your pardon, major," Squire Baaconi aald, smiling and holding out his band. "But the daughter there you've got me. I can't speak for her." "Oh, all we want Is chance to have her speak for herself," the msjor an swered. Rob smiled to bear him. Down in his heart be knew what Jean would say. KUlla Crocodiles. 'There are two ways of killing croc odiles," writes an ex-resident of India. "One is by shooting with a rifle, but the most satisfactory way of dealing with them, besides being far the most sporting, is to bait a good large book with a bird or small animal and fasten It by a chain to a good long rope, the end of which is firmly picketed, the rope being colled and the bait laid In shallow water. There must be lots of slack line, as the crocodile does not wallow anything at once, bugyielxes it and takes it into deep water to gorge. A number of lines may be laid and looked up in the morning or cool of the evening. When booked It will take a good many men to haul crocodile out, and as be resents the operation and can use bis tall as well as his jaws one or two sportsmen will find considerable entertainment in dispatching him with spears. Some crocodiles grow to an enormous size, and their maws always contain round white stones and often trinkets, the relics of Inside passengers.
