faAA.aaAASAa,a...iA.,iiAltaJ i CiK Story of an jjifrican farm Lwi'inued from t'irtt J'age Bonaparte, standing by lilta anil point ing with tbs rod of bin whip to the tnsdloy of wheels and hinges. Tba boy tnutterexl something Inaudi ble and half aprad hla band over the thing. "Hut thla aeeme to be a very Ingm lons llttlo machine," aald Bonaparte. Beatl:iK I iiiiKi-tr on the ant heap and benditiK down over It wltb devp Inter est. "What la It for. my lad?" "HbeartDg sheep." "It la a very nice little rnacblue," aald Bonaparte. "How does It work, now? I bave never aeen anything po Ingenious!" There waa never a parent who beard duceptlon In the voice that praised hla child, hla firstborn. Here waa one who liked the thing that had been created In blui. He forgot everything. He showed hour the aheara would work with a little guidance, bow the sheep would lie held and the wool fall Into the trough. A flush burat over hla face aa he spoke. "I tell you what, my lad," aald Bona parte emphatically when the explana tion waa finished, "we must get yon a patent. Your fortune la made. In three years' time there'll not tie a farm In this coloiiy where It Isn't working. You'ro a genius: that's what you are!" said Bonaparte, rising. If It were made larger," said the boy, raising hla eyes, "It would work more smoothly, lio you think there would be any one In this colony would be able to moke It?" "I'm sure they could," said Bona parte, "and, If uot, why I'll do my boHt for you. I'll send It to fciik'laiid. It must be done somehow. How long bave you worked at It?" "Nine mouths," si Id the boy. "Ob, It la such a nice little machine," aald Bonnpnrte, "one cau't help feeling an Interest In IL There la only one lit tle Improvement, one very little Im provement, I should like to make." Bonaparte put his foot ou the ma chine and crushed It In the mind. The boy looked up into his face. "Looks better now," said Bouuparte, "doesn't It? If we can't have It made In England, we'll send It to America. Uoodby; to, ta " he added. "You're a great genius, a horn genius, my dear boy. There's no doubt alwiut It" He mounted the gray mare and rode off. The dog watched his retreat with cynical satisfaction, but his master lay on the ground with his head on his arms In the saud, and the little wheels and chips of wood lay on the grouud around him. The dog Jiiiiimi1 ou his back and snapped at the black curls till, finding that no notice was taken, hv walked oT to piny with a black beetle. The beetle was bard at work trying to roll home a greit bnll of dung It had been collecting all the morning, but I Kins broke the ball and eat the beetle's bind legs and then bit off Its head. And It was all play, and no one could tell what It had lived and worked for a striving and a striving and an ending In nothing. CnAPTEU XI. UK SNAPS. "I bave found something In the loft," said Em to Waldo, who was listlessly piling cakes of fuel ou the kraal wall week after. "It Is a box of books that belonged to my father. We thought that Tuut' Hannle had burned them." The boy put down the cako be was raising and looked at bcr. "I don't think they are very nice, not stories," she added, "but you can go and take any you like." Ro saying, ah took up the plate In which she bad brought his breakfast and walked off to the house. After that the boy worked quickly. The pile of fuel Bouaparte had ordered hi in to pack waa on the, wall In half an hour. He then went to throw salt on tho skins In Id out to dry. Finding the pot empty, he went to the loft to refill It. Bonaparte Blenklns, whose door opened at the foot of the ladder, saw the boy go up and stood In the door way waiting for bis return. He wnut od his boot blacked. lVisn, finding he could not follow his master up the round bars, sat pntlently at the foot of Jho ladder. Presently he looked up longingly, but no one acarcd. Theu Bouaparte looked up also and began to call, but there us no answer. What could the loy le doing? The loft was an unknown land to Bonaparte. He had often wondered what was up there. He liked to know whst was In all locked up places and out of the way corners, but be was afraid to climb the ladder. So Bonaparte look ed up and. In the name of all that waa tantallrlng, questioned what the boy did up there. The loft was used only as a lumber room. What could the fellow find up there to keep him so loug? Could the Boer woman have beheld Waldo at that Instant any lingering doubt which might have remained lu ber mind as to the Ivoy'a Insanity would Instantly have vanished, for. having tilled the salt pot. he proceeded to look f.ir the box of books among the rubbish that filled the loft t'nilcr pile of sacks he found It -a rough packing case, nailed up, but with one loose plsiik. lie lifted that and saw the eveu backs of a row of books. He knelt down before the box and ran his hand along Its rough edges, aa If to assure himself of Its existence. He stuck his hand lu among the books and pulled out two. He felt them, thrust hla Ougor In among the leaves and crumpled them a little, as a lover feels the hnlr of his mistress. The fellow gloated over hla treasure. He had had doscn books In the course of his life. Now here was a nilue of them opened t his feet After awhile he began to read the titles aud now and again opeued a book and read a sentence; but he wss ton excited to catch the meaulngs distinctly. At last he came to a dull brown volume. He read the name, opened It In the center aud where he opened began to read. 'Twas chapter on property that he fell upon, "Couiuiuulsm, Fourlerlsm, 8t Slniou Ism," In a work on political economy, lie read down one page and turned over to the next; he read down that without changlug his posture by an Inch; he read the next and the next, kneeling up all the while with the book In his hand and his Up parted. All be read he did not fully under tiuid. The thoughts were new to him. But this was the fellow' startled joy lu the book -the thoughts were hla; they belonged tj him. He had never thought them before, but they were his. He laughed silently and Internally, with the still Intensity of triumphant joy. So. then, all thinking creatures did j tot eeuJ uo the ou cry; "As thou, dear Lord, hast created things in the beginning, so are they now, so ought they to be. so will they be, world with out end, and It doesn't concern as what tbey are. A men." There wera men to whom not only "kopjes" and stones were calling out Imperatively. "What are we, and bow came we here? Un derstand ua and know us," but to whom even the old. old relatlona between man and man and the customs of the ages called and could not be made still and forgotten. The boy's heavy body quivered with excitement 80 be waa not alone, not alone, n could not quite bave 4old any one wby be waa so glad and thla warmth had com to him. Ilia cheeks were burning. No wonder that Bona parte called In vain and Doss put bis pawa on the ladder and whined till three-quarters of an hour bad passed At last tbe boy put the book In his breast and buttoned It tightly to him. He took up the aalt pot and went to tbe top of the ladder. Bonaparte, with his banda folded under bla coattaila. looked up when be appeared and ac costed him. "You've been rather long time up there, my lad," be said aa the boy de scended with a tremulous baste, most unlike his ordinary slow movements. "You didn't bear me calling, I sup pose?" Bonaparte whisked the tails of bla coat up and down aa he. looked at him. He (Bonaparte Blenklns) had eyes which were very farseelng. He looked at the pot It waa rather a small pot to have taken three-quarters of an hour In the filling. He looked at the face. It waa flushed. And yet Taut' Hannle kept no wine. lie had not been drinking. His eyes were wide open and bright He bad not been sleeping. There was no girl up there. He had not been making love. Bo naparte looked at him sagaciously. What would account for the marvelous changu In the boy coming down the ladder from the boy going up the bid der? Oue thing there was. !ld not Tant' Saunle keep In the loft "hub tongs" and nice smoked sausages? There must lie something nice to eat up there. Aha! That waa It! Bonaparte was so Interested In car rying out this chain of Inductive rea soning that be quite forgot to bave bis boots Mucked. Ho watched the boy shulllo off with the salt pot under bis a-ui. Thun be stood In hla doorway aud raised bla eyes to the quiet blue sky aud audibly propounded this riddle to himself: "What la the connection between the naked buck of a certain boy with a greatcoat ou anil a salt pot under bis arm aud tho tip of a horsewhip? An swer: No connection at preseut, but there will be soon." Bouaparte was so pleased wltb this sally of his wit that be chuckled a lit tle aud went to He down on his bed. There was bread baklug that after noon, aud there was a fire lighted In the brick oven tiehlnd the house, anil Taut' Saunle had left the greut wood en elbowed chair In which she passed her life and waddled out to look at It Not far off was Waldo, who, having thrown a pail of food into the pigsty, now leaned over the soil wall looking at the pigs. Half of the sty was dry, but the lower half was a pool of mud, on the edge of which the mother sow lay with closed eyes, her ten little ones sucking. The father pig, knee deep In the mud, stood running his snout iuto a rotten pumpkin and wriggling bis curled tall. Waldo wondered dreamily as be stared why they were pleasant to look at. Taken singly, they were not beau tiful; taken together, they were. Was It not becauso there was a certain har mony about them? The old sow -xaa suited to the little pigs aud the little p!rs to their mother, the old boar to the rotten pumpkin and all to tho mud. They suggested the thought of nothing that should be added, of nothing (bat should be taken away. And, be won dered on vaguely, was not that tho secret of all beauty, that you who look on So he stood dreaming and leaued farther and farther over the sod wall and looked at tbe pigs. All this time Bonaparte Blenklns was sloping down from tbe bouse In an aimless sort of way, but he kept one eye fixed on the pigsty, and each gyra tion brought him nearer to It. Waldo stood like a thing asleep when Bona parte came close up to blm. In old days, when a small boy play ing In an Irish street gutter, he (Bona parte) had been familiarly known among his comrades under the title of Tripping Ben, this from the rare ease and dexterity with which, by merely projecting his foot he could precipitate any unfortunate companion ou to the crown of bis bead. Years had elapsed, and Tripping Ben bad become Bona parte, but tbe old gift was In blm still. Ho came close to the pigsty. All the defunct memories of his boyhood re turned 00 him In a flood as wltb an adroit movement he Inserted bis leg between Waldo and the wall aud aent blm over the pigsty. The little pigs were startled at the strange Intruder aud ran behind their mother, who sniffed at blm. Taut' Sannle smote her bands together and laughed, but Bonaparte was fur from Joining ber. I-ot In reverie, be gased at tbe distant boiixon. Tbe sudden reversal of head and feet had thrown out the volume that Waldo carried In hla breast Buuupurte pick ed It up and Iwgau to Inspect It as the boy climbed slowly over the wall. He would have walked off sullenly, but be wanted his book and waited till It should lie given li I in. "Ha!" said Bonaparte, raising his eyes from the leaves of the hook which he was examining. "I hope your coat has not been Injured. It Is of an ele gant cut. An heirloom, I presume, from your paternal grandfather? It looks nice now." "O I.ord, O I.ord," cried Tant' San nle, laughing and holding her sides, "bow the child looks aa though he thought the mud would never wash off! O Lord. I shall die! You, Bona parte, are the funniest man I ever saw." Bonaparte Blenklns was now careful ly lnsMt'tlng the volume he hud picked up. Among the subjects on which the darkness of his understanding had boeu enlightened during his youth o litlcal ecouoiry had not been one. He was not therefore, very clear aa to what tbe nature of the book might be, and, aa the name of the writer, J. 8. Mill, might for anything he knew to the contrary, have belonged to a ven erable member of the British and For eign Bible society. It by Do means threw light upon the question. He was not In any way sure that political econ omy had nothing to do with the cheap est way of procuring clothing for the army and navy, which would be cer tainly both a political aud an economi cal subject But Bonaparte soon came to a con clusion as to the nature of tbe book and Its contents by the application of a simple rule now largely acted upon, but which, twcoaiing universal, would save much thought and valuable time. It la of marvelous simplicity, of In finite utility, of universal applicability. It may easily lie committed to memory and runs thus: . Whenever ton torn Into contact with any book, person or opinion of which yon absolutely comprehend nothing, declare that book, person or opinion to bo Immoral. Bespatter It vituperate against It strongly Insist that any man or woman harboring It la a fool or a knave, or both, tare fully abstain from studying It lK all that In you Ilea to annihilate that book, person or opinion. Acting 00 thla rule, so wide In tta comprehensiveness, so beautifully sim ple In Its working. Bouaparte ap proached Tant Sannle wltb the book In bla band. Waldo came a step nearer, eying It like a dog whose youug has fallen Into evil banda. "This book," aald Bonaparte. "Is not fit and proper atudy for a young and Immature mind." Tant Sannle did not understand word and aald: "Whatr "Thla book," aald Bonaparte, bring ing down bla finger with energy on the cover, "this book la sleg, aleg. davel, da veil" Tant' Sannle perceived from the gravity of bla countenance that It waa no laughing matter, rrom the words sleg and davel she understood that the book waa evil aud bad some connec tion wltb the prtuce who pulls tbe wires of evil over tbe whole earth. "Where did you get this book?" she asked, turning her twlukllug little eyes on Waldo. "I wish that my legs may be as thin aa an EngiUhman'a If It Isn't oue of your father's. He had more sins than all tbe Katllrs In Kaf nrland, for all that he pretend! to be so good all those years and to live with out a wife liecause he was thinking of the oue that was dead! As though ten deud wives could make up for oue fat one with arms and legs!" cried Taut" Sanule, suorting. "It was uot my futher'B book," said the boy savagely. "I got It from your loft." "My loft! My book! How dare you?" cried Taut' Sannle. "It was Em's father's. She gave It me." he muttered, more sullenly. "(live It here. What Is the name of It? What Is It about?" she asked, put ting ber finger upou the title. Bouaparte understood. "Political economy," he said slowly. "Ik-ar Lord!" said Tant" Sannle. "Cannot oue hear from the very sound what an ungodly book It Is? One can hardly suy the name. Haven't we got curses enough on this farm?" cried Tant' Saunle eloquently "my l-st Im ported Merino ram dying of nobody knows what, and the Shorthorn cow casting her two calves, and the sheep eaten up with the scab and the drought? And Is this a time to bring ungodly things about the place, to call down the vengeance of Almighty (Sod to punish us more? Didn't the uiluls ter tell me when I was coullrnied not to read any book except my Bible and hymulHMik; that tbe devil waa In all tho rest? And I never have read any other book," said Taut' Sannle, with vigorous energy, "mil I never will!" Waldo saw that the fate of bis book waa sealed and turned sullenly on his hiHl. "80 you will not slay to hear whit 1 say I" cried Tant' Sannle. "There, take your polity-golllty-gomliiy, your devil's book!" she cried, flinging the book at hla head wltb much energy. It merely touched his forehead on one side and fell to the grouud. "Go on!" she cried. "I know you are going to talk to yourself. People who talk to themselves nlways talk to the devil. Go and tell him all about It Co, go! Kuu!" cried Tant' Saunle. But the boy neither quickened nor slackened bis pace and passed sullenly round tbe back of the wagon house. Books have been thrown at other heads before aud since that summer afternoon hy hnnds more white and delicate than thoso of the Boer wom an; but whether the result of the proc ess has been In any case wholly satis factory may be questioned. We love that wltb a peculiar tenderness, we treasure It wltb a peculiar care. It haa for us quite a fictitious value, for which we have suffered. If we may not carry It anywhere else, we will car ry It In our hearta and always to the end. Bouaparte Blenklns went to pick up the volume, now loosened from Its cov er, while Tant' Sannle pushed the stumpa bf wood farther Into the oven. Bonaparte came close to bcr, tapped the book knowingly, nodded and looked at the fire. Tant' Sannle comprehend ed and, taking the volume from his hand, threw It Into the back of the oven. It lay upon the heap of coals, smoked, flared and blazed, and the po litical economy waa no more gono out of existence, like many another ;oor heretlc of flesh and blood. Bouaparte grinned and to watch tbe process brought hla face so near the oven door that the white hair on his eyebrows got singed. He then Inquired If there were any more In the loft Learning that there were, he made signs Indicative of taking up armfuls and flinging them Into the fire. But Taut' Snnuie waa dubious. Tbe de ceased Englishman had left all his per sonal effects specially to bis child. It was all very well for Bonaparte to talk of burning the books. He bad bad his hair spiritually pulled, and she had uo wish to repeat his experience. She shook her head. Bonaparte was displeased. But then a happy thought occurred to blm. He suggested that tbe key of the loft should henceforth be put Into his own safe care and keep ing, no one gaining possvHalou of It without his permission. To this Taut' Sannle readily assented, aud the two walked lovingly to the bouse to look for It Cto dm co.Trisrrn.J A POPULAR INK.
