They were about half-way through this beautiful meal when there was a sound of footsteps on the matting, and a Chinese servant appeared, bearing a large iced birthday cake set on a silver tray. "Hullo, Ah Kew! What you gottee there?" called Hugh, under the impression that he was speaking pidgin-English to perfection. "Master talkee to-day b'long he burfday," Ah Kew replied.

Wait here and I will call him." In a few minutes the Chinaman came shuffling in from the garden." "See here, Song," said Ted. "Did you see a strange man here early this morning?" "Stlange man!" said Song meditatively, with a smile of innocence on his broad, yellow face. "No savvy stlange man." "Man no b'long here," said Stella, "Oh, yes, I savvy. No see stlange man." "What time you get up?"

A light was flashed swiftly into my eyes, and desultory remarks which suddenly escaped me were rudely interrupted by shrill screams. My boy was singing. "Master," he cried, pulling hard-heartedly at my left big toe to wake me, "come on, come on; you wantchee makee get up. Have got two o'clock. Get up; p'laps me no wakee you, no makee sleep no b'long ploper.

"Not lame Jintsey's boy! You don't mean it!" "That's the ve'y one," persisted Uncle Billy. "Gawge Washington Chadwick. He's a ministah of the gospel now, home from college with a Rev'und befo' his name, an' a long-tailed black coat on. He doesn't look much like the little pickaninny that b'long to Mars' Nat back in wah times." "And Jintsey's dead, poah thing!" exclaimed Aunt Susan.

"Well, of all things!" cried Patricia. "Let me tell you what you don't know. Éclaires and olives just b'long together. Don't act funny, Arabella." Arabella, always afraid of being laughed at, ate not only one éclaire, but two, and a dozen olives, as well. During the afternoon, they ate four crullers, two pickled limes, two ham sandwiches, and a pound of fudge.

The little voice was very weak now, very wistful. "Goin' now?" asked the Major. "Yes, Joey." His whisper could hardly be understood when after a long pause, he spoke again. "I want th' Cap'n ter gimme th' order, 'cause I b'long ter th' Reg'ment." "What order, Major?" came from the Captain huskily. "Old G. A. R. he knows " the Major's voice could just be caught now.

Mandy Calline was red as a turkey-cock, to which was now added a nervous confusion which bade fair to overwhelm her. "It's too soon, Zekle. Whyn't yer wait er while?" she replied, tremblingly. "No, 'tain't too soon," he answered, promptly. "I want it all done 'n' over with, then I sh'll feel mo' like ye b'long ter me. I'm goin' ter ask 'em ter-day; yer needn't say not.

Mind you, I've no grudge agen the man. I liked his dare-devil look, the only time I saw en. I'm only sayin' what I think that you'm all afeard." "I don't b'long to the parish," remarked a Landaviddy man, in the pause that followed, "but 'tis incumbent on Lanihale, I'm fain to admit." The Lanihale men fired up at this. "I've a tin-kettle," said Calvin Oke, "an' I'm ready."
