"I'll have a little talk with your father myaelf," he told the boy, and then and there he 'talked in upon the mlaer and gave him a piece of hia mind. Among other thlnga he in. formed the farmer that if he didn't treat hia aon better, he, Wetherby, would muke the town too hot to hold him. Two daya after Jamie, smart In new clotbei and a red cap, started in on hia dutiea aa a caddie. In a week'a time the boy became the Rtar cad die of the ennrae. From almost the flrat time the boy waa abaolutely happy from morning to night, llien came a dinuppoint ment; Wetherby took to playing with a partner two or three timea a week a very beautiful young lady, whom Jamie learned to call "Miaa Elizabeth." Now, Wetherby hod been working hiinaclf up into aplenaid form, but when he got to playing with the girl Jamie waa much worried to notice that he went all to piece! on hia drlvea and couldn't putt a little bit And the worat of It waa that aa time went on Wetherby'a playing fell off more and more. Ht range to aay, Jamie found it much easier to raddle for the two than for one. They never aeemed'to eare if the ball got loat, and one day when at the fourteenth hole, the guttie had popped over the fence Into hia fa. ther'a place, and Jamie naked if he ahould go after it. Wetherby aald: "Yea, Jamie, and If you find it in lean than an hour 1 11 iliachnrge yon!" When poor, liewildered Jamie re. turned in exactly one hour, he found the two aitting under a tree, and Wethcrby remarked, very fornuilly: "Mr. Mel.cod, let me introduce my fu ture wife." Then the young lady drew the boy close to her. "You're glad, Jamie, aren't you?" aim aaid, Hoftly. I he boy blinked hard for a minute, Yea," he retorted, sturdily; "I'm really and truly glad -though I kind er hate to Bee a good golfer apoiled." One day a week later Jamie waa ciiddying for Miaa Kli.uhctli alone; Wethcrby waa to Join her a little later. Jamie, with the girl'n tmg along over one nhoulder, and her red Jacket over the other, waa atnndiug cloae to hla father'! cattle yard fence, watch- ing for the drive-oft at the fourteenth hole, She made rather a bad foozle, the ball going far to left out of the right direction. The two were making for the ball aa It lay near a turbulent lit tle mountain brook, and were almoat there, when they both tur 1 at the Bound of a panting animal, and there within ill) yarda came Farmer Me l.eod'i anvage bull, hia head lowered, hla eyea atlame. the girl gave a scream and atood atock atill from aheer fright. There waa no alielter at hnnd. Jamie held a cleek In hla right hand. The bag fell to the ground with a rattle, but with hia other hand he atlll graaped the red Jacket. Make for the brook, he cried; unci turning about he waved hla Jacket III the face of thu furioui brute. With a bellow of rnge the bull made Hralght for him. Jamie atood hia ground till the iH'iiat'a horna were all but on him; then deftly he atepped one aide, and lifting thu cleek dealt the animal a tierce blow on tlief noae. The bull turned and charged on him again, Aa Jamie Icniied to one aide for the aecond time hia foot allppcd on the alippery turf, and twiating hla ankle he fell helplcaa to the ground, lie llnng hlmaelf face downwnrd on the graaa mid waited for Unite dreadful horna to , atrike hi m.

Hut 1 waa never one to feel jealous like. Same as when 'o nt olT with my gal, Molly Maloney no could feel Jealous of Jem. Amherst paused a moment and gacil at the sky, crisped into points, of yellow stars. The waab of the sea had made him melancholy, perhaps, aa he was out of aorta. That one last glass of beer the night before in the canteen had Itecn too much for "Obi IWtil-iikay-s-are," as his companions called in in. He leaned up against a grey rock bowlder, and tore up a tus sock of fcTi aaa. "A. ' C. O. mayn't cak to a or dinary gunner when 'e pala with the other lot o' snrjints and their belong inirs.

"You nvghl get into a row," re- ' turned Amherat, "and that 'ud be bad for you juat now." ! "Xo worae for roe than you. 1 Jem set hiniaelf squarely down no a bowlder at his conipanion'a aiile, and aettlvd hii chin upon bis folded brown . flats. I "Davy," he laid, "do you remember I Molly Maloney?" Amherst's face quivered; but he aid, sturdily: "Aye, we'll not talk of j 'er just now, Jem." Jem's face was determined; his moutn aet in a hard line, that apoiled his goo.d looks, giving to his face an expreaaion of obstinate firmness that gave one a freak insight into bis char acter, Uo you mind her yellow hair, like the buttercupa in Mile Knd CI farm, and her eyea blue and big, like the forget-me-nots by the mill-pond, where the rushes was su fine and large? She was a neat dresser, and had a pretty foot, too.' "Aye," said Davy. "And the Hunduy evenin' when we three walked back from church, and the sky waa like the inaid of a pink shell, with streaks like a violet here and there? And she aaya to me, what a pretty voice I had in the tenor pari a. and never Md a word to' you, though you and abe waa courtin . Amherst made a motion with hit head, for his lips were dry and speech less. "And maybe you were wondering why we weren't married, and why I sever said a word about it to you, aft er she give you the chuck, and she and me went walkin' together." "Maybe you was ihelicate about It, and didn't like to 'urt my feelin'a." Davy's voice was hoarse; he was So eager to find an excuse for the man to whom he had been doggedly faith ful for these many years through thick and thin. Twaa only natural aa she should prefer you. I'm a poor one at expresa- in' my feelin'a, and a poor sort of chap and all. While as for you " "While, as for me," said Jem, calmly, you thought aa ow I was a nasty, aueakin' chap, and had took Molly away from you, teinptin' her like; while the real truth ia, Davy, though 1 never told you before, that ahc wasn't worth a snap of your fingers or of mine, for I knew she was llirtin' with that red-headed chap at the blacksmith's all the time you waa a courtin of 'er; and if a girl could go on with one chap when she hud proiu- aed to marry another, it seemed to me as she was not good enough to lie pal's wife. She walked with me a bit, and then why, I ttdtl 'er as I meant nothin', aeein' she waa on with two or three other chaps, and you waa bio Idind to see it. 1 only done it to show you what she waa and to stop you from throwin your stupid old self away upon a good-for-nought." You did it for that?" Davy's voice waa tremulous In its Intensity of earnestness. "Why, I thought aa'ow you loved 'er, and was goin' to get the trijie su aa you could get married to 'er." I'm not a-going to take no strijie," aid Jem, iteadily. "You're out there, Davy." "Why, the colonel spoke to you this raornin', I know 'e did, for Stubhs tuld me." "Aye, Davy, did you never think that you ami me would be separated as far as the sea is from yon moun tain? You've been a bit unfortunate in the drinkin' line, and that's agen you for promotion, but if you was think i n' that I wna a goin' to be aet over your head, you waa wrong, Davy Amherst. Pals we waa in the ohl days, and pals we'll be till we auulTs out, and that's enough for me, if it la for you." Amherst's hnnd stole a little nearer hto the clenched fist on the atubble. "tlod's truth'" he said. "(bid's truth," aaitl Jem. The vow was taken aa solemnly aa though aome pledge of vaat import' ance was being registered. "Jem, it was 'urtln' me cruel, that thought of you ami me never apeak in'," aaitl Davy, at last, sheepishly. "If V 1 " eep a oil at rnignier ;U least, I'll try lo keep that way on." Amherat waa nothing If not honest, and Jem admired him for it. "it'll be no use, Davy. 1 know you of old," he answered, hopefully. "The very smell of a beer-jug '11 draw you a mile, but I'll take the will for the deed, old chap." When two furtive, lightly-garbed figures stole back to their respective beds, thu sky was shivering towards the dawn, Aamhcrst crept into his bed, the next man to him moved, ami muttered in hla sleep. "We beseech Thee to hear us, (itmil Lord." He was the second tenor in the choir, anil had been practicing aome new music the day before at the stpicaking har monium. "Amen," snid Davy, fervently, as he drew the blanket over his head. At the same moment the bugle rang out "Kevcillc," clear as a bell reson ant as the Inst trump - each note ris ing and falling on the still air. It was echoed from cliff to cliff, from fort to Wracks, till the whole island rang with the uews that another day was born. And the gunners of Tigne woke to reluctant life, and grumbled them selves into uniform and pipeclayed helmeis once again. Hut there was gladness in two rough, honest hearts, for a shadow had tolled aw.iy with the mrple line of night-cloud into the sea. Hlaek and While.
