“I say, Mr. Jones, why don’t you get

The night came—a perfect. night for
sleighing expeditions and rustic love-
making, the roads hard and well packed
and a glorious moon shinlugdowu white-

the whole world.
"Couldn't. be better weather,” said the
captain. ”Sam, where are the sleigh-

“Dunno," said Sam.
“i guess they're out in the barn cham-
ber," the farmer said. "You better go
with him, captain, if you expect to find
‘em—our Sam’s dreadful thick-headed

“Come along, my line fellow," said the
captain,collurlug Sam and marching him

“We don't. need any lantern in this moon-

"Where are the stairs?" demanded the
captain, as they entered the burn.

Sam shrunk back.

The man looked at the alcrplng child,
and thou gazed around the car with the
look of one who was searching for some
one he did not lintl. ’l‘hru he darted to
the door, seized a brukemun. and dragged
him into the car and to the seat om-uplml
by the sleeping infant.
"Whore is the mothcruf that child!"
he demanded in a oupprcasvd Vull‘t‘.
“l’m sure i don't know," said the
brakeman. "Him doem't seem to be
