She was saucy and impudent independent, and she was very mure and deceitful and ingenious If she loved him in return she wasn't going to let him know it until she got good and ready. She resented his primmess and previseness and the rebukés he offered. - When her mother talked to her about her wicked ways she elevated her chittish chin and replied : "And who is Harold to boss me. He is only a bit older than I am, though he acts like an old deacon. I'm going to keep at him until. he drops that awful dignity and acts as any other young man would." "He hps asked you to marry him, 1 pr ?"" queried the mother. "Yes, be has, and how did he do it ? We were sitting in the summer house one evening, and I was chew- ing yum. It was a beautiful night, The crickets were singing, and the night breeze was rustling the hig wil- jow. It was just the nicest night in the world to talk love, but did he talk it 2.

He seemed quietly to enjoy the situation. On another occasion he began to talk politics as soon as he entered her presence, and after standing it for half an hour she yawned and asked if he had any objection to go- ing out and buyiny a quart of pea- nuts to roast in the kitchen. She hoped he would flush up and gn swear, Hut he disappointed her. He remained cool and calm and an- swered that he hoped her frivolity would entirely disappear some day. Again, he entered the parlor to find her walking up and down with a cane, and her father's silk hat on her head. She continued to walk -af- ter his entrance, and it was only after he had seatyd himseli and ° be gan to reall 4 letter taken from his pooket that she threw bat and cane into a corner and exclaimed : "Harold Speed, am 1 nobody or nothing ?"' vo "Why, ves--vou Chit," he answered.

The thought that Mr. Speed Was to come down and spoil the last two days set a certain little head thinking. A plan was laid, and the boy who had baited her fish hooks was called in to conspire. He grinved and Miss Chit giggled. "What's afoot pow ?" asked the sus- picious mother; "Nothing, mamma, dear. Harold will be here to-morrow. He will arrive at eleven i'clock, the same as we did, 1 shall be over to the lake fishing: Tell him where I am. No, there's nothing doing, mamma, I'd just like to see him catch a fish thrgugh the ice." Harold arrived. As usual, he was punctual to the minute.

Every town of 10,000 or more has one newspaper, and usually two or more, | The leading Tokia daily "claims" a "circulation of 180,000 copies; the Asahi and the Mainichi of Osaka "claim" a daily circulation of 250,000. Journalism in Japan is nearly three ' hundred years old, but the publication of newspapers there as a distinct en ferprise is comparatively recent. Until after the middle of the nineteenth cen tury such news sheets as were publish- ed were somewhat of the nature of bulleting roughly printed from wooden blocks and issued at irrégular times by any one who saw fit to have them prepared. | The first of the great dailies of latex times was the Yokohama Mainichi Shimbun, which made its first appear ance about forty years ago. IL was afterward moved to I'okio, where it it is still published as the Tokio Mainichi. Others followed soon after {in different cities, and the names of some of these publications are as well | known to the world at large asx ax | the names of the newspapers of France or Germany. a The writer of the article quoted noles that 'formerly all important | newspapers considered it necessary to { have leaders and the more important { of the special articles written in the dignified but = cold style of writing. - Now- {papers do hot consider | their dignity articles in the easy collognisl style which even a school boy can under- [ stand.
