Twas amid these romantic scenea thnt I awaited the sound of the lunch-bel- l (which for me was the announcement of breakfast), when I arose from my first nights slumbers under Mrs. Apperthwaites roof; and I wondered If the books were a fair mirror of Miss Apperthwaftes mind (1 had been told that Mrs. Apperthwaite had a daughter). Mrs. Apperthwaite herself. In her youth, might have sat to an illustrator of Scott or Bulwer. Even now you could see she had come ns near being romantically beautiful ns was consistently proper for such a timid, gentle little gentlewoman ns she was. Reduced, by her husbands Insolvency (coincident with his demise) to keeping boarders, she did It gracefully, as If the urgency thereto were only a spirit of quiet hospitality. It should be ndded In haste that she set an excellent table. Moreover, the guests who gathered at her board were of a very attractive description, as I decided the Instant my eye fell upon the lady who sat opposite me at lunch. I knew at once thnt she wns Miss ApierthvvaHe, she went so," as they say, with her mother; nothing could have been more suitable. Mrs. Apperthwaite wns the kind of woman whom you would expect to have a beautiful daughter, aud Miss Apperthwaite more than fulfilled her mothers promise. I guessed her to be more than Juliet Capulets age, Indeed, yet still between that and the perfect age of woman. She was of a larger, fuller, more striking type than Mrs. a bolder type one might put It though she might have been a great deal bolder than Mrs. Apperthwaite without being bold. Certainly she was handsome enough to make It difficult for a young fellow to keep from staring at her. She had an abundance of very soft, dark hair, worn almost austerely, as if Its profusion necessitated repression; and 1 am compelled to admit that her fine eyes expressed a distant contemplation obviously of habit not of mood so pronounced that one of her enemies (If she had any) might have described them as dreamy. Only one other of my own sex was present at the lunch table, a Mr. Dow-den- , an elderly lawyer and politician of whom I had heard, and to whom Mrs. Apperthwaite, coming In after the rest of ns were seated, introduced me. She made the presentation general ; and I had the experience of receiving a nod and a slow glance, Id which there was a sort of dusky, estimating brilliance, from the beautiful lady opposite me. It might have been better mannered for me to address myself to Mr. Dow-deor one of the very nice elderly women, who were my fellow-guestthan to open a conversation with Miss Apperthwaite; but I did not stop te think of that. You have a splendid old house next door to you here, Miss Apperthwaite," I said. It's a privilege to find it in view from my window." There was a faint stir as of some consternation In the little company. The elderly ladles stopped talking abruptly and exchanged glances, though this was not of my observation at the moment, I think, but recurred to my consciousness later, when I had perceived my blunder. May I ask who lives there?" I pursued. Miss Apperthwaite allowed her noticeable lashes to cover her eyes for an Instant, then looked up again. A Mr. Beasley, she said. "Not the Honorable David Beasley I" I exclaimed. Yes, she returned with a certain gravity which I afterward wished had checked me. Do you know him?" "Not In person, I explained. You see, Ive written a good deal about him. I was with the, Spencerville Journal until a few days ago, and even In the country we know whos who in politics over the state. Beasley's the man that went to Congress and never ninde a speech never made even a motion to adjourn but got everything his district wanted. Theres talk of him for governor." Indeed? And so It's the Honorable David Beasley who lives In that splendid place. IIow curious that Is!" Why?" asked Miss Apperthwaite. It seems too big for one man, I answered; "and Ive always had the Impression Mr. Beasley was a bachelor."

The book has proved so attractive to boys that schools have adopted It as a textbook because of Its appeal, as well as its literary merit and fund of information. A boy, so the story goes, once siarted out to memorize its 500 pages. It can be said It Is found In the pocket of the scout, on the bookshelf of the naturalist, with the greenhorn in camp, with the explorer In thq outlnnds, sometimes in the housewifes kitchen table drawer, and once It was placed with a dead hero In his grave, left lying In his eoad Just as It was when he was lifted from the trenches. The chapters on Woodlore, Fire Signaling, Bad4s Health, vention, Patriotism, Tracking and other subjects were written by experts who not only know their subject prorounxb ly, but can present the Information M a fascinating way to boys. Perhaps no other book has ever been published with so large a number of editors as the Handbook of the Boy Scouts. Wien the movement was started in this country, the national council sent a proof of the work to 500 eol'ege presidents, and 4,500 men engaged In active boys work, with the request that they share lu the responsibility of planning this great movement. Many valuable sug gestlons were received and acted on. James E.
