McNutt was stumping over the patch and plumping his wooden foot into every melon he could find, smashing them wantonly against the ground. The discovery filled them with horror. They had thought inducing the agent to rob his own patch of a few melons, while under the delusion that they belonged to his enemy Brayley, a bit of harmless fun; but here was the vindictive fellow actually destroying his own property by the wholesale. "Oh, don't! Please don't, Mr. McNutt!" pleaded Patsy, in frightened accents. "Yes, I will," declared the agent, stubbornly. "I'll git even with Dan Brayley fer once in my life, ef I never do another thing, by gum!" "But it's wrong--it's wicked!" protested Beth. "Can't help it; this is my chance, an' I'll make them bum fifteen-cent mellings look like a penny a piece afore I g

he knows every human weakness and its sure decoy." It is this latter clause that is relevant to his theme. Poets in earlier ages wrote epics and dramas, they celebrated the strength and nobility of men; but the poet of the modern world "cleverly builds on the frailties of mankind." Of these the chief is "the inability to throw away an element of value, even though it cannot be utilised." On this great principle is constructed the whole art and science of advertisement. And my author proceeds to give a series of illustrations, "each of which is an actual fact, either in my experience, or of which I have been cognisant." Space and copyright forbid me to quote. I must refer the reader to the original source. Nowhere else will be found so lucid an expression of the whole theory and practice of modern trade. That theory and practice is being taught in schools of commerce throughout the Union; and there are many, I suppose, who would like to see it taugh

T." "Go ahead and do what?" "Lead the way through that chimney. My! I believe it has stopped snowing and the boys don't know it." "Come on then and make sure," Betty cried, and began to scramble up the sloping tunnel on hands and knees. Both girls were warmly dressed, booted, and mittened. A little snow would not hurt them--not even a great deal of snow. And that a great deal had fallen and blown into this railroad cut, Betty and Bobby soon realized when they had scrambled out through what the latter had called "the chimney." Only a few big flakes drifted in the air, which was keen and biting. But the wind had ceased--at leas

Mustached man." "Yes, that describes him. You see, he did not wish to act definitely without consulting his chief, yet the unexpected opportunity seemed far too vital not to be utilized. He did not explain, did he, what it was we wanted of you?" "Indeed he didn't," said Jane, now wholly herself. "He was most mysterious about it." Mr. Fleck smiled amusedly. "Carter has been an agent so long that being mysterious is second nature to him." "An agent--I don't understand." "A Department agent," explained Mr. Fleck, adding, "engaged in secret service work for the government." "Oh!" Jane's exclamation was not so much of surprise as of delighted realization, and the satisfaction expressed in her face was by no means lost on Mr. Fleck. "Would you object," he asked, moving his chair a little closer to hers, "if, before I explain why you are here, I ask you a few questions--very personal questions?" "Certainly not," said Jane. "You are American-born, of course?" "Oh, yes." "And your parents?" "American for ten or twelve generations." "How long have you lived in that apa
