She came dancing back niter n little, (jiggling triiimpbuLtly, sho set dowu before Phoebe n amnll iilntj.
Ou it was a half au sjiple, impaled npon which, by menus of n luntcb, was a slip of piiH'r, and on tho paper was writteu :
"Dear     Mi-^s     Cbipmnn—We     arc afraid that you  gave us half kd apple too much, aud wu beg to return it. "I'Hor.BE and U.ttsv Thhoop."
"I'm going over and leave it at hor door," Daisy dectnre.l.
"Daisy 'rhroop!" Phoebo gimped, iu shocked remonstrance. But sho hid ber Inughin.^ fnce.
"I nm," said Daisy, "nnd you'ro'go- ing with me. She'll tiud it in tbe morning.    Come on !"
"We mustn't," Plioebo protested.
"Yea, we must. She was ra.'au, you kuow she was! She deserves it. It'll do licr good."
She pulled Plioelio to tho door by main forci'. fbey ran out, bare hea.l- ed, aud climbed the fence in tbo dark¬ ness nnd mnile their wny through Mijs Chipmnu's lawu aud their suppressed giggles trniled behind thom.
"We'll leive it right here at tbe kit¬ chen door," Dsify whispered. ".Sht'll find it iu thu luoruiug."
Sho crept to tbo door and set the pinto down softly-
Sho felt ber sister's hand clutching hers.     "Look I" Phoebe cried.
Tbo woodshed adjoined tbe kiteben nt the rear. Its door stood open, and within tbey paw a strange, bright glare.
They ruslird to the .'pot. Something loomed up lilsekly before tbem—a tall figure stauding on n barrel. A fright ened yell burst from tho apimrilion.
"Who'sh that, I shay?" n familiar voice quivere.l in shrill terror. Tbo liery light shoue on the red hair and the pale, skewed face of  Or.ro Martiu.
Ho stare.I at tbem ; then, witb a cboko.l and Ktnuimering word, be clasped his ipuer face in bis lean bauds, )Uinped oil tlio barrel aud loped oir iut.i tho darkness.
A Hiuull of kurosene lilled tho shod, and tho rafters had cau'^bt the blaze of a burning mass uf something which Ozro Martin bad been stulliug iu among them, "llun! get some water." Phoebe crioil, nn.l while Daisy ran she mojintijd tbo barrel nnd tore at the burning mas.s. It was a bundle of rags soaked witTi kerosene.

New cures for eousnmption continno tg bu proposed, notes tbo Pathflndor. NoQo has so far proved a apeciflo cure, invariably auooessfnl or ezolnsivoly acospted. Consumption appears to ho the worst enemy of man's health in this day, and it is probably increas¬ ing. It is these serious considera¬ tions that are nrging scientists to study more closely tbo pathology of tbe Inngs. Nature abhors tinhealth and as soon as wu learu how to mako the oonditions rigbt it will be as easy to reform a pair of lungs as to set a broken arm.
In Australia they are exploiting a whale cure for rheumatism, whioh is eaid to bo clleotive, though disagree¬ able. It waa discovered by a drnnkon man, relates the New York Press, who was staggering along the beach near the whaling station at Twofold^ Bay, and who, seeing a dead whalo cut open, took a header into tbe decomposing blubber. It took two hours for htm to work bis way ont, and he was tben not only sober, bat oared o( bia rheu¬ matism. Now, they say, a hotel has been built in tbu neighboring town of Eden, whero. rhvumatio jiatiouts wait for tbo arrival ot a whale in order to tako blubber baths.
Only ono lighthouse in ninety miles from Snmly Hook to Atlantic City, aud several boats, inclu.ling Ihn liuer St. Louis, have lately ruu ou the l.aaeb iu tbat stretch, exclaims the New York Dispatch. Only one light¬ house for tbe Long Island shore ap¬ proach to Sandy Hood for sixty luilef- and oTer, whore oomer.iuii wrecks are beached and strew the coast every year. Is the approach to tne greatest harbor iu tho world properly pro¬ tected considering the dangeroua sands waiting to hold any craft unfor¬ tunate enough to get ashore aud con¬ sidering theenormoa^ tonnage and its value that has to reikch tbis port by running tbe gauntlet .if the .lersey au.l Long Islaud sands ?

"I'm kind of curious to seu bow they'll mako out neighboring with Augusta Cbipoinn," said .Mrs. Mosely, witb anuthercbuckle.
At that very moment tho Tbroop girls wore seated iu Miss Cliipmau's best room, iu whose dimnes.? their bright young faces shone out like stars.
They wcro returning Miss Chip- man's formal cnll; which they had not cujoyod much. It had beeu a business call, any how, Phoebo said. Miss Chipman had iuforiued them that sbc i reeked with the o lor of keros

Tho Thijop girls stood thero to¬ gether. Tbi'ir bauds au.l their faces wero Btrnugely Mackoueil, water dripfcd   from   their   hair   aud    from

And I made up my min.l, sfter you'd gouo bome with tho apples, that I'd come over and cxplaiu lo TOU how 'twas force of habit, my using ray own peck measure, aud that you needn't lio afraid I'd do it again. I was terribly ashamed of it.
"I know I'm a stingy, hard old wo¬ man." Miss Chipman declared, Bnt somehow, tbo Tbroop girls folt liko speaking rislit up nnd denying it. "I've got tho reputation, and I guess I deserve it. I've lived hero aloue so long that I've got warpod ond selfish and mean, aud I kuow it.
".\nd hero you've saved my house from burning. Saved me frcm an aw¬ ful misforlune. It's uo uso for no to tell you how thankful lam. It's coals of fire, nnd I hojie it'll do mo good !

And there wcro tears in Miss Chip- man's eyes.
"There!" sho said. "Now, do you like |ilum proservea nud candied cher¬ ries aud fruit cake? Wo will have some,  dears."
"Well!" aaid Mrs. Moseley, somo weeks later, "ifl ever! I wouldn't have believed it.
"I wou.lored, along to tho nrst.how Ihe Tbroop girls would got along with Miss Chipman.
"Get along with her? Why, friend¬ ly ain't Iho word for it. They're thick. Tho Throup girls are over there hnlf tho timo and I seo Miss Chipman going over to the Throops' twioo a day, sometimes. The Tbroop girls have knit ber a liluo headscarf, aud >.he wears it; wears it all over town. .Sho that never wore anything beforo but a black bonnet."
But Mrs. Mosely v/aa in total ignor¬ ance eoncerniug Miss Cbipmau's peck measure and the remarkable train of events whieh had lesulteil from her having use.l it ono too mauy times.
".She's pretty near a ueiv woman, Augusta chipman is. Thoso Tbrooji girls have done ber n sight ol good, that's tbu long nnd tho short of it. Tbey do say tho'sgoingto help 'oui through Iho Brndley Normal school, thai they're eo crazy to get to.
