At the county fair,
Beemed as it the whole world
Au' all their kin was there.
Way up on the top seat
Me an’ Jennie set—
Wisht 1 had the candy
An' peanuts that we et!
Jennie's right good lookin’;
But she likes to boss;
Pared me to bet money
Ou Jake Douglas’ boss.
Like a fool T done it;
Went down to the track.
How d'ye think I found het»
’S I was climbin' buck?
There I met her half way,
With another beau,
Stuck-up, slick-haired softy,
That Will Joues, ye kuow.
Let on not to see me;
Went right on a-past,
fl’pose she thought I'd ast her
Where she’s goiu’ so fast
Warn't no use to fuller,
So I let ’em go,
Funny how things sometime*
All go wrong jes' so.
Lost a pile on Jake’s boss;
Couldn't ring a cane.
Fellow swiped my goldine watch,
Then it poured down raiu.
Tell ,ve 'tain't all sunshine
An’ all "pleasures rare”

«
WAS disappointed in my friend. We
bud arranged to spend the day on
the river. I had not met him for
years, not since our Balliol days, until
I saw him again after seven years at
tlie varsity sports in the early spring.
Then eight or nine of us. all old Balliol
men, dined together, ami we bad a re­
freshing talk over all that had occurred
while I was away in Canada. Six years
vf it 1 had there, and when 1 returned
was surprised to find so much altera­
tion In everything and everybody. But
dear old Fry was the same as ever,
Stanch and genuine itud generous.
When 1 met him in Lombard street,
* fortnight before, it was he who had
suggested ami settled tile details of our
trip on the river. It was to be on June
15, and we were to have had a long,
healthy, exhilarating day, with plenty
of hard exercise and a long chat about
Sid times -old chums that we were.
The .lay came and I was In river rig
st the boathouse agreed upon half an
hour earlier titan we laid mutually
fixed.
But Fry did not come.
The
half hour w ent, and anol her, and an­
other.
I know of nothing more Irri­
tating than to have to hang about for
another fellow to turn up when one Is
alone like that. At last, I got a note
by Ills servant. If lie had sent a wire,
1 should have had his message sooner,
hut old fashioned courtesies still char­
acterize Fry, and lie sent his groom
fleven miles with a long note of expla
nation and apology.
Ills excuse for not coming seemed to
me a flimsy one
Ills wife's father had
fixed a sudden meeting of family trus­
tees, and afterward he had to see his
sister on business of consequence re­
lating to a trust. However, whether
it was an excuse or whether it was
a reason, he was not coming with me
for our pro|e. led river trip that was
clear; and now Ilia I I knew he was not
to Join me. I was content. It was an
•frying. and, as I really loved dear old
Fry. it was n disappointment.
But 1
trust I am too philosophic to feel any­
thing deeply that cannot lie helped. I
countermanded the pair skiff and bad
•lit a single canoe.
In five minutes I was “on the bosom
of old Father Thames." The hackneyed
words, as 1 thought of them, were in
themselves a comfort and as I paddled
•n I thought how a guy heart wauts
so friend. Solitude has charms deeper
than society can afford.
Out of my
memory teemed troops of friends, and
they were with me as I willed. They

wished when thought of another sug­

hearty laugh, his loyal, brotherly spirit.

again ns a more recent chum who laid

I was now in a lovely backwater more
beautiful than the Thames Itself. The

• ml weeping willows hung their arch­
ing boughs right across the narrow
creek which it now pleased me to ex­
plore.
The water was clearer, too —wonder­
fully clear It was.
1‘addllug slowly
along betweeu the lawns, 1 looked Into
the depths of the water, with all Its
wealth and wonder of piant growth, the

a dozen cushions were about her—her
book lay open, its leaves kissed, as be­
fitted the pages of a poem, by the zeph­
yrs.
I had never seen so glorious a
picture, uor one that burst ujhiu my
vision so suddenly. She was lu some­
thing white and dainty, her hat was
hung on a branch, and the old, gnarled
tree under whose shade she reclined
was covered with apples.
Her hair
was tangled and golden and her eyes
full of light and laughter.
For a while 1 sat staring at her io
bewilderment.
Then 1 stammered,
“Where am I?”
Her answer was perfectly calm, but
it was not chill; no, her voice was so
soft that the simplest words she ut­
tered were a melody.
“You are in my father's gardeu." she
said.
“And 1—I---- ?”
“You are a trespasser.”
But she smiled as she said it. a smile
that showed two rows of pearl, spark­
ling in the sunlight that dappled her
face.
“And you?” I said. I know not what
I said, but soon 1 asked her name, aim
she told me it was Eve.
“And this is Paradise," I answered,
looking through the leaves of tlie old
upple tree at all the beauties of the
garden.
Then we talked. Of what? Of
every tiling. Of solitude, of friendship,
of books; 1 fear, of Canada and of
love.
Then she hade me go, and I could
not. Nor would 1 if 1 could; and when
at length 1 obeyed her and was about
to go, she hade me stay.
So 1 stayed, and soou had moored my
canoe and stood upon her lawn. 1 can­
not tell how I of all men modest al­
most to bashfuluess could have done
so, but I did.
Gf the flowers that grew wild there by
the water's edge 1 made her a crown,
and this 1 put upon tier tangled golden
hair.
She was my queen there ami
thenceforth forever; ami so I told her,
the poet aiding me.
Two roses that 1 had not seen before
bloomed ou her face, and she ran aw ay,
light-footed and lithe of limb, over the
lawn into her father's bouse.
But 1 could not leave; I could not.
I looked for her, but she did not come.
Once, I saw the curtains of a window
drawn aside mid her face peering out
upon me, but she would not come again.
Well, I stayed—that was all. How I
bad the impudence to do so 1 cannot
tell but I could not go.
She was a long while indoors.
1
heard her at the piano. 1 knew it was
her touch, though 1 had never heard
her before, but 1 was confident it was
she. Besides, now and then tue piano
stopped suddenly. and I saw by the
movement of the window curtains that
she was peeping to see whether 1 hud
gone.
At last I grew ashamed of my intru-
truslon, and, stooping from under the
fruit-covered branches of the old apple
tree, 1 went to my canoe, unfastened
Its moorings, and was about to with­
draw.
But, ns luck would have it, just as
I was about to get into the canoe, she
came out to me across the lawn. Her
gesture to me was that I must go. 1
said what 1 felt, regardless of nil or­
der, of all propriety.
"Eve,” 1 said
passionately, "you do not know me, nor
who I am, nor I you; but I know this,
that 1 love you. Yes. 1 love you. and
shall love you for ever. Your heart Is
my Eden.
Do not shut the gates of
this, my earthly Paradise.
I must,
must see you again, and 1 will.
Say
that I may."
She looked down and blushed.
"Muy I?” I faltered.
Sue diil not reply.
But her silence
was n better answer than words.
"Wheu?"
" I'» morrow,”
She looked so pretty when she said
it that 1 wits about to dare yet more.
I had the temerity to formulate tue
idea that I would take her In my arms
and steal from her lips a kiss when I
heard a shout.
"Hullo, old chap. Is that you?"
I looked up.
"What, Fry?" I cried. "Is It Fry?
It Is. by all that’s wonderful!"
"I'm awfully sorry, my dear chap,
that 1 couldn't Join you on the river to­
day. Abomluably uncivil you must
have thought me. But 1 didn't know
you knew my sister.”
lie looked at her and he looked at
me. I think we were both blushing.
Whether It be unmannerly or not, I
confess I was. Aye, I was red to tlie
roots of my hair.
"But you do know each other, don't
you?" lie said, fur we both looked so
awkward that lie seemed to think that
he had made some faux pas.
"Oh. yes'" 1 said, "we know each
other.” and I stole a look at Eve. The
glance she gave me was a grateful one
"Ami we shall know each other bet­
ter.” I whispered to her Inter. "Now
that I have discovered you to be your
broiher's sister, you bear an added
charm lu my eyes."
Three months afterward there was a
river wedding, and. as we were rowed
away from church In a galley manned
by four strong oarsmen, and I handed
her out of the canopied boat on to her
father's lawn, the wedding bells rang
out merrily, for Eve and I were mau

Euglund, J n»ti tiltion—Place Where
American Workluguieu Majr Get
Cour.ea of Study at Home,
Two enthusiastic young Americans
came over here, says a Loudon corre­
spondent, and put their time and mon­
ey luto the establishment of a novel In­
stitution that made a good many con­
servative Englishmen smile. The Eng­
lish workingmen, however, didn’t smile
at all, but concluded that the American
idea was a good thing, and helped it
along. It grew and grew until there
was no doubt about Its being a big suc­
cess, and now, oddly enough, English
workingmen are raising $20,000 in shil­
lings and pennies to propagate In the
United States the Idea that originally
camo from there, and incidentally some
of the English workingmen are kicking
hard because their brethren are doing
this thing.
The Idea was to establish a working­
men’s college, to which a man might
go or from which lie might get courses
of study at home. That sounded rather
dreamy, like some of the economic
Ideas of John Ruskin, in whose name
the work was taken up. But It devel­
oped presently that it was not the in-
And what are these halls to be like,
and how 1* thia monumental scheme to
be managed? The beat answer can be
had through some account of the pe­
culiar feature* of the Ruskin Hall at
Oxford. It is housed in an unpreten­
tious, four-story structure that was at
one time the residence of the fifth
Duke of Marlborough, and was after­
ward often visited by John Ruskin
while a friend of his lived there. It Is
just beyoud beautiful old St. John’s
College.
To any one who visits It after revel­
ing lu all the luxury of the ancient
seats of learning scattered all around
it, it looks bare indeed. I’iue tables pre­
dominate, and not many of the accoin-
panying chairs have backs. Workrooms
and bedrooms are furnished in the ut­
most simplicity. They have to be, for
the total cost of residence, Including
board and lodging. Is $2.50 a week, and
the tuition and tutors’ fees are GO cents
u week more.
Perhaps the queerest feature of the
whole thing, and a feature that is to
be preserved in the United States, is
that every student in the hall is ex­
pected to work two hours a day at
cooking, houseeleauing, etc., as no ser­
vants are kept, and there are no women
about the place. That is how the cost
of residence is kept down to such a low
figure.
Although housework Is not a part of
the curriculum, the men soou become
experts at it, and there is a growing
suspicion at Ruskin Hall that a iin.ii
can scrub a floor more effectively and
more economically than a woman. I

in It. But tin* applications for resi­

What t hey Study.
If, as really seems possible, this ex­
periment is going to have a marked
effect on the British and American
workingman, it becomes interesting to
see what it is that they are being
taught. The list of fourteen courses Is
made up of these branches: Sociology,
in which special attention is given to
the development of modern society and
present social conditions; English con­
stitution and political history, in which
stress is laid on the origin ami develop­
ment of English government; English
industrial history, covering land laws
ami the efforts of the workers to better
their conditions; the industrial revolu­
tion. devoted to a consideration of the
mechanical inventions and new Indus­
To Begin in St. Louis.
Various English labor leaders fell ill
with the idea, and the suggestion seems
to have come from some of them that it
should be carried back to the United
States. In consequence, the general
secretary of Ruskin Hall, II. B. Lees
Smith, and two tralued assistants, will
go to St. laruls to establish a Ruskin
Hull there, of which Mr. Smith will be
principal. They expect to branch out
from there until In time every big city
in the United States lias a branch of
tills unique college. Two prominent
English labor leaders -U. W. Boxver­
man, Secretary of the London Society
of Compositors, aud James Sexton,
Secretary of tlie National Dock 1 .abor­
ers’ Union have gone to the United
States to talk with the labor leaders
there and prepare the way for their
co-operation. Tlie $2t),lMM) required to
start the college iu America has al­
ready been guaranteed, aud a good deal
of it has been raised mostly from mem­
bers of the correspondence class. It
has been said that the British trades
unions as a body have been backing
the undertaking, but this Is not the
case.
The reason for making a beginning In
St. Louis doubtless is that Walter
Vroonian. who was the founder of the
college and supplied the first of the
money to start it. was a St. Louis
man. and was at one time active lu
politics and business there. He and his
wife, a Baltimorean, who is interested
a* much in tlie new movement as her
husband, now live iu Oxford, and give
practically all their time to Ruskin
Hall, of whose council Mr. Vroonian
Is President.

NOVEL-WRITING PAID BEST.
How Grant Allen Accidentally Stam-
bled Into the Literary World.
It is an actual fact that the late
Grant Allen, whose distinguished ca­
reer as a writer is well known, be­
came a novelist by mere accident—in­
deed. without knowing it. While pur­
suing ids scientific studies lie wrote an
article for a magazine upon the impos­
sibility of seeing a ghost. The article
was written by way of recreation more
than for any other purpose, and for
convenience sake and to make the
moral clearer lie threw the argument
into the narrative form, but without
the slightest idea that he xvas writing
n story. It was published under the
title: "Our Scientific Observations on
a Ghost.”
Immediately the editor wrote for an­
other "story” of a like character. Be­
ing a Journalist, Mr. Allen accepted an
order for anything and sent back a
blood-curdling tale about a mummy.
Not caring to let the world knoxv that
he was trifling with fiction, he veiled
the author’s identity under the pen
name, "J. Arbuthnot Wilson.” But
presently Mr. Wilson had so many or­
ders for tales that he monopolized Mr.
Allen's desk and Ills income exceeded
that of the scientist, and so Mr. Wil­
son beame Grant Allen and known to
all the novel-reading world.
Developed by Cultivation.
All garden vegetables are merely
types improved by long cultivation of
wild species. The wild cabbage is com­
mon enough in places by the sea, but Is
of no use for food in its wild state. In­
deed. it will take a botanist to tell that
it was a cabbage at all. Scotland owes
the cabbage to Cromwell’s soldiers.
The cauliflower Is but a cultivated im­
provement on the cabbage. It was
brought to perfection in Cyprus and
was very little known until about a
century ago. The parsnip Is another
native of this country. You may find It
along almost any hedgerow, but it Is
small and intensely bitter in Its wild
taste.
