The scenery and costumes are of rare beautv and Bftn.ti.,... The casf Is composed of such well ance in the world scneme. No one oould make light of him when he was displeased. As, for Instance when he came in for the early dinner, rod glancing at the dock found thai tu dinner was lata "Ome, oomel" he -would say, sternly nd loudly. "What's this? and he B-ould open doors and call through em: "Mother!" Hra Price! panel What the dickens are you.

all think Then while ha stood In- the lobby, running the brick dust from hi clothes, or stamped to and fro about the big room, the household bestirred iuelf breathlessly "Coming, Richard; coming!" called jnama, in her gentle, soothing voice; Jane, the maid, clatt'f-ed with the trays and plates in the stone flagged passage from the kitchen. Mrs. Price, the cook-housekeeper, bustling unseen, dished up at express paed. The big room was the on Just Instd the front door, and it was used all the morning as Mr. Crunden's own official room; through It you passed to the sitting room and the never used state parlor or drawing room.

The custom was to dine in the big room, but sometimes the custom was broken and they dined in the sitting room. It was this occasional break of the routine that led to the very funny thing. When papa was thus once fussing and fuming, Mrs. Price, with a demure mile announced to him that dinner had been on the table and getting cold for the last five minutes In the other room. If so, said papa, with a qnick change of tone, it was do reaaon why Mra J-rice should grin like a Cheshire cat.

fcut then he laughed heartily. "Lizzie, my little fairy," he said, laughing, "I cried out before I was hurt that time, didn't XT" That was the merit of papa. He could be stern and severe almost terrible and than In a moment Cheer, ful and good tempered again. If he mad your nerve shake, he did not keep than shaking that Is to say, unless he was really angry. Then it was like aa earthquake; the earth trembled.

In' those happy, dayt, however, he was not often really angered. He was only holding peeople up to the mark-guarding against slackness at home or at the yard Mrs. Price, as well as mamma, told Uzzls that her father at heart-was- the kindest man that ever lived. And truly he was very kind to Ussle kinder, much kinder, than to her long legged schoolboy brother, Dick. He was seeking to hold Dick up to the mark and already beginning to fall.

"Don't be a slacker, my boy," that was what said to Dick again and again. "Btlck to It; put your back Into It, whatever you do." When Difk cam horn for the holidays from the grammar school at Bray-ton. papa welcomed htm affectionately; but then, too soon, he would ask troublesome questions. "Weil, my boy. I hope you've dona better this term, and brought home good report with you is your report?" At the word "report," poor Mra Crunden always became restless, talkative and nervous.

"Don't trouble about that tonight, father; that'll keep till tomorrow, won't itf Tea, I have seen it Don't look at it tonight." Of 1 course Mr. Crunden would not wait. He must see the wrteched document now, her, this very minute. Then there would be an oppressive fflenoa. The father had laid down his j)lpa, was sitting In the candle light at tie bureau, solemnly reading; the son had plunged his hands In his trousers' pockets, was looking at the celling or making facetious grimaces at his young sister; mama, miserably uncomfortable was warning Dick by raised linger and moving Hps to refrain from his impudence and to bear reproof patiently Mra Price, aofUy clearing the supper tabls, waa too brave to hurry through the task and get safely away to the kitchen, although she might think that a domestic earthquake was coming "Well," said Mr.

Crunden at last, turning from the bureau and facing ills aon; "well, what have you got to aay for yourself?" "Oh." aald Dick, with real or affected carelessness; "they'll never make a learned pig of me. They'd bet-ter giv it np aa a bad job" Then perhap papa, for a little while', lacked quite terrible, was a short, sturdy man a square block of a man. 1 seeming strong and hard aa one of his nrick set on end.
