Tor u small itrriodlcal the Literary
I'iil'ii't lint a remarkably well equip
IK'U force. It employed an editor In
chief, nn assistant editor, n fiction ed
Itor, a household editor, a receiving
editor, a stenotrriiplier and a general
ofllco boy.
Frederick Mallory Mason, A. B.,
was the editor lit chief, and Tommy
(last nntiie nnd degree of education
wanting) was the general office boy.
Margaret Van Anilmrgh, R M. (bache
lor innldt, held all the other positions.
This able trio kept things moving
amicably a state of affairs due to the
editor's never falling good nature, to
Toinniv's love of tho ludicrous and to
Miss Van Aruburgh's well, to her com
bined prettiness and extraordinary
ability.
Into the inlilBt of this center of ac
tivities on one particularly exacting
afternoon a minute piece of pasteboard
forced its polite intrusion. Tommy
handed It to Miss Van Amlmrgh with
a reminiscent grin.
"She told me," he announced, "to
give It to Mr. Mason, but I promised
the boss not to let any hub get by me
this afternoon. She came near It,
though. Say, but she's n winner!"
Miss Van Amlmrgh glanced at the
name, dropped her work mid, Ignoring
Tommy's gratuitous observations, went
out to meet Miss Elizabeth Greene.
To Tommy's amazement he noon
found himself ushering the "winner"
Jnto tho editor's sanctum.
"IT'ni," he soliloquized within cal
culated earshot of Miss Van Amburgh,
'something's up. She ain't no nil
thorest, I'll bet my meal ticket."
"Tommy," reproved Miss Van Am
burgh, with dignity, "you are not em
ployed to pass comments on Mr. Ma
son's visitors. Copy these letters."
"Mark my words," ho muttered ns he
moistened the copying sheets, "she's
got the boss faded sure."
And It looked so when nn hour later
the mysterious visitor, (milling, but
with teur stained eyes, left tho office,
followed by the attentive editor.
"Just close up the day's business as
best you can. Miss Van Amburgh," lu
tructed Mr. Mason In passing. "I shall
not be back this afternoon."
"Wot did I tell yer?" bonsted Tom
my, but Miss Van Amburgh was too
busy to answer.
Tilings went badly In tho office of the
Literary Leaflet the next day. Tho
editor in chief was noticeably dis
traught. Ho dictated in an absent
minded manner and again left the of
fice early, offering no explanation of
this most unusual proceeding. Tommy
waited until the door closed tight and
then whistled.
"(Jono to meet the 'winner,' " ho con
jectured. "I'll bet my"
"Tommy, dust Mr. Mason's desk and
bo quiet ubout It," directed Miss Van
Amburgh. "You grow lazier every
day."
In a few minutes only tho click,
click, of the typewriter broke tho si
lence. Suddenly a long chuckle came
from the editorial sanctum.
"Tommy, what are you doing?" de
manded Miss Van Amburgh, facing
the culprit sternly.
"Get on to this," said the unabashed
Tommy, rending haltingly from somo
torn scraps of paper pieced together on
the desk, blotter beforo him. "I found
them In the wnstebnsUet. It's hot
stuff: 'Well that's the way I feel
about you sweetheart. I' "
With a sudden sweep of her hnnd
Miss Vuu Amburgh sent the telltale
scraps flying.
"I'll have you discharged, Tommy,"
she threatened solemnly. "Go tnke
those letters out of tho press nud carry
them over to tho postofflce. You
needn't come back."
"Kver?" gasped the astonished Tom
my. "You ain't got no right"
"Hack tonight, you silly. Now, step
lively."
As soon as Tommy had been gone a
sufficient length of tlmo to insure
against his possible return Miss Van
Amburgh spread tho crumpled bits of
paper out on the blotter before her.
She felt ns guilty ns bIio was.
"Did you ever see anything so beau
tiful" (her cheeks flushed us she rend)
"that you wuuted to throw your amis
around It and sing for happiness?
Well, that's the way I feel about you,
sweetheart. I want to fold you close
to my heart and sing to you of my
love."
For some tlmo Margaret snt very
still, her chin resting on her hnnd,
Suddenly she brushed away tho tenrs
Hint were forming In her big brown
eyes nnd, gathering up the precious
scraps, put them In an envelope.
After she had directed this senti
mental collection to "Miss Kllznbetb
Greene," she dropped It, without lies!
tation, down the offico mail chute. The
thud that Indicated the letter's arrival
In the box far below sounded the death
knell of her hopes, and the air castlo
ivhlch she had built so Joyously fell
crashing about her. Hut she wns glad
she had had the courage, to give on
other woman tho happiness she eoveted
for herself.
With the feeling that she had passed
through some awful ordeal, yet had
come out of It creditably, Margaret
wrapped up bunch of miscellaneous
manuscripts for homo work and closed
tho office.
As she was rending theso over later
slio came upon one that bore a pre
clous comment of her own. "This is
worth accepting," she had Jotted down
for the editor's benefit, "if you can fix
the mnn's love letters up a bit. They
do not ring true."
Turning the pages over listlessly to
the hero's first unsatisfactory epistle,
she was startled to read, lu Mason's
handwriting, tho very letter she had
pieced together that afternoon. She
turned to the next letter. This, too,
Mason had attempted to revise. It
began encouragingly, but stopped short
with the characteristic marginal com
uieut: "Miss V., I can't do anything
.with these old things. Ilaven't had
uny practice. You rewrite them."
Tho enormity of the blunder she bad
-"ido flushed Margaret's cheeks crim
son. For the next two days she went
about the office In a daze. Should she
or should she not confess? Her de
termination of the question was
far from being settled as ever, when.
late In the afternoon of the second
day, Mr. Mason called her Into Ms
office.
He sat at his desk on which lay.
once more, those fatal scraps of paper
and held in bis hand a letter, over
which he was evidently jierploied. He
looked up at Margaret, however, with
a smile.
"Here's the strangest mlxup, Miss
Van Amburgh. I wonder If you can
help me make head or tail of It. Ixsjks
to me as If that Incorrigible Tommy
hud been playing one of bis practical
Jokes again. See here."
Iiut Margaret would not look.
"I'm to blame, not Tommy," she con
fessed, und then somehow she got
through her explanation. It was a
humiliating experience.
When she had finished and with pa
thetic humility begged Mason's for
giveness he looked at her with a ten
derness she knew she did not deserve,
but which perversely she felt was
worth the having blundered to win.
"There's only one thing I'm sorry
aliout," he snld kindly. "You should
hnve directed these little scraps of
sentiment to yourself, Margaret They
were written with the thought of you
In my heart. They are my first love
letters."
At this Margaret unexpectedly burst
Into tenrs. The strain of confession
had unnerved her. Mason blessed her
for it. It gave him tho opportunity
he longed for of holding her lu his
arms and of comforting and loving
her.
"Iiut what will you tell Miss
Greene?" asked Margaret, dismay and
amusement taking turns in possession
of her big brown eyes and adorable
mouth.
"Oh, I'll make It all right with Cous
in Elizabeth!" Mason assured her,
laughing. "She's a dandy girl, but has
Just had a falling out with her finnce,
nnd I've been trying to help her pntch
It up."
"Oh!" said Margaret comprehend-
Ingly.
"Do you know, dearest," asked Mu-
son, fingering the scraps of paper on
his desk, "I'm Insufferably proud to
think my first love letter is accepted."
"It It rings true," commented Mar
garet archly. "I knew you could do
It."
Just here Tommy burst lu upon tho
lovers. IIo explained that he bad
knocked several times, but got no an
swer. Then he continued to stand in
the doorway, grinning.-
"Tommy," announced the editor im
periously, "Miss Van Amburgh and I
are engaged. You aro the first one to
hear tho news."
'Tshaw!" exclaimed Tommy. "That's
no news. I could 'a' told yer thnt
when I found them scraps In the
wnstebnsker."
Retting Their Muscles.
When a mini Is tired he stretches
his arms and legs and yawns. Birds
and animals, so far as possible, fol
low his example. Birds spread their
feathers nnd nlso yawn, or gape.
Fowls often do this. Fish yawn. They
open their mouths slowly until they
aro round, the bones of the head seem
to loosen and the gills open.
Dogs are inveterate ynwuers and
stretchers, but seldom Bueeze unless
they have n cold. Cats aro always
stretching their bodies, legs and claws,
as every one knows who hits had a cat
for a pet.
Horses stretch violently when and
after Indulging iii a roll, but uot as a
rule on all fours, as slugs do. A stng
when stretching sticks out his head,
stretches his fore feet out and hol
lows his back and neck ns though try
ing to creep under a bur.
Most rumlnnnt nnlmnls stretch when
they rlso up ufter lying down. Deer
do It regulurly; bo do cnttle. This fact
Is so well known that if a cow when
arising from lying down does uot
stretch herself It is n sign she Is ill.
The reason for this Is plain the
stretch moves every muscle of the
body, nnd If there Is nn injury any
where It hurts.
Coffee In Jamaica.
You see nil those bushes with red
berries strung among their branches?
That Is coffee, and the taller trees
among which It is growing are pimen
tos, from which tho world gets Its all
spice. It looks llko Jungle, does it not?
Yet many thousands of dollars would
not buy that one hill slope. Among tho
lovely flowers humming birds spurklo
ns they tly and hover; butterflies as
Inrgo ns tho birds dispute the honey
with them. As you turn round tho cor
ner you surprise parties of tiny ground
doves, nnd every now nnd ngalu the
larger pea doves flit across the road.
Fp from the valley below tho Bounds
of voices nnd laughter. Stop your car
riage and look down. Those are the
works on n coffee estate, and those flat
terraces partitioned off Into squares
are the "barbecues" upon which tho ber
ries are dried. You can see that some of
tho squares are a dlffereut color to tho
rest. The dark ones are thoso that are
covered with coffee; the others aro
those which have not yet been filled.

UP FOR A COOLER.
it Wat a Hot July Day, but He Kept
Hit Coat Buttoned.
It was one of the hottest days thnt
disgraced the mouth of July. The
stout man with u face like a full moon
douo lu red, making ambidextrous use
of a pnlr of funs, his vest open, his
collar curled like a green leaf in the
sun, his handkerchief wringing wet
nnd his forehead liended with perspira
tion, stopped in mute surprise near the
corner of State and Grlswold streets,
lie stood there for a full minute look
ing at a man with a closely buttoned
blouse, turned up collar and slouched
hat leaning against a hot brick wall
and basking lu tho sun.
"What's tho matter, my man?" the
stout gentleman at length made out to
iuqulre.
"Jfdl kjnder chilly."

know It's 92 In the shade, and there
you are on a steaming flag pavement
leaning against a steaming brick wall
and looking as though you were on a
polar expedition. I'll call an ambu
lance." "Xo, you won't," laughed the other.
"I'll be used to It In a little bit Don't
like to cool off too suddenly, don't you
seer
"Xo, I don't see," replied the stout
one, who began to think he was deal
ing with a lunatic. "When a man tells
me he's chilly and that he's been cool
ing off too rapidly in this atmosphere,
I'm through with hliu. Good day."
"Hold on, lss. Don't go off mad.
I'm fireman for the elevators down

"Mandy," growled the. old man, "Is
that young mail there ylt?"
"Yep, pap."
"Is he got his arm round yer waist?"
"Yep, pap."
"You-all tell him to take't away."
"Aw, ye tell him yerself, pap," re
plied the girl In a dull, lifeless voice.
"He air a plumb stranger to me."
