FRANCIS AND A CAR.

The hrow of the ;younger Cleghorn was furrowed. Oleg-horn Junior was JisHppointed, annoyed. When his father hadrefused him permission to drive the five-seater, Franci hadenquired if the former had thought him too ;'oung to be trusted,fifteen years before, in his one-se,ltel' "Baby Pramme."

Franci wa ure that he could drive the olel bus. It lookedsimple enough. ~\ll you had to elo\\"a to pre8s a thing, meelelleabout with the gear, ,md the deed ,vas clone. lIe he1dseen the"olel mml" do so twice a clay for three years. Other chapwere allowed to dri\"e their paters' tH I"S. ilnd they were all moreor less his age . . . rathel' m01'e, perhaps, ::lay three Ol' fouryears, but that is not 1llUth. ~fter all, cl child of 1\\'elve couldmanage ct ':tlIilnertoll Four. '

·x· -:.:. ·x· .:-:.

At 2 p.m. the following day, Mr. Oleghol'l1 drove into townto see his dentist about a tooth which had heen troubling himfor ome time. lIe took his son with him.

The elder gentleman of the t\\'o had not been gone t,,·ominutes "'hen his heir had taken his phwc at the wheel. lIeprcssed Cl thing. meddled with the gears-and the deed wasdone. The car begclJl to 1110\'C, steadily gaining speed-back-wards. Francis med lleel about with il few lTlore things and thecar stoppccl. spluttered, and mo\'ed again-forward this time.

,\Yhy was the thi ng so ('onfou ndedly hard to steer? Whichwas the brake? Ilo\\' the hlazes was he to get back? .And whywere this silly litch anel hedge rushing up to him?

Ora.'h! He kne,\' now. lJe wns glad that :Major Fairseathad decided to plant 11 myrtle hedge and not build a stone wa11-very o-lad indecd. It looked more like a ewing machine thathad goue through a mangle than 11 ":Milnerton Four."

oon after he had extricated himself from the wreckage,Miss Yvollne Fail'sent the Major's maiden sister, marred thehorizon by estahlishillg her;;clf at the drawing-room window.

" There they go," shouted Fnmcis Oleghorn; " catch them,or they'll get away,' and the heir to the Oleghorn hundreds setoff in hot pursuit of n gang of dastardly motor bandits anelkidnappers, who were neverruu to earth-even by ScotlanclYard.

Distorted images shall wenel their gruesome wayThroughout the tOl'tureu hrain that must tbese fiends obey;Such shrieking, shro\\'ish vampireH that teal' the anguished mindAre followerl close by sel'pents, <Jml white spectres float behind;And scorching fiery flames th,lt U,ll't fr01l1out tho dnlO'oll's jaw,That burn ,mel roar like the blacksmith's forge the devil stands

before;And a gray wolf, lean, with glittorino' eyes,Howls shrill at the moon above tho ri::;0--All turn and h,'ist a1)(1come alld p;o,

The softe·t music tbat afar i':ihallin the distance sound;The ;,;Iowand dreamy swa,ying of the branches all around;The lim and gauzy fairies that flit among the treesWith the perfume of the violets on the early morJli:ng breeze,To whero ~'ou lie so peaceful on your beel of mo sy ward,l\faster of the green around you-of the hlue sky lord;And the sweetest of the wate.r::;in the little trickling rillTinkling like the harps of angels, not unlike the skylark's trilLThere you lie ill gentle slumber, none shall wake you till the
