me naa aone It so quickly that 1 hardiy saw the hand whisk over my bosom, nor did I feel his fingers touch me, and-yet there was the pin glittering in his hand. “It is wonderful,”’ I said as I fixed it again in its place.
“Oh, that’s nothing! But I have been in some really smart jobs. I was in the gang that picked the new patent safe. You remember the case. It was guaranteed to resist anything; and we managed to open the first that was ever issued, within a week of its appearance. It was done with graduated wedges, sir, the first so small that you could hardly see it against the light, and the last strong enough te prize itopen. It wasaclever managed affair.”
“Il remember it,’ said I. “But surely some one was convicted for that?”
“Yes, one was nabbed. But he didua’t split, nor even let on how it was done. We'd have cut his soul out if—” He sud- denly damped down the very ugly fires which were peeping from his eyes. “Per- haps | am boring you, talking about these old wicked days of mine?”’
“On the contrary,” I said, “you interest me extremely.”
“I like to get a listener I can trust. It’s a sort of blow-off, you know, and I feel lighter after it. When Iam among my brethren I dare hardly think of what has gone before. Now, I'll tell you about an- other jobI was in. ‘To this day I cannot think about it without laughing.”
1 lit another cigar, and composed myself to listen.
“It was when I was a youngster,” said he. “There was a big city man in those days who was known to have a very valu- able gold watch. I followed him about for several days before I could get a chance; but when I did get one, you may be sure I did not throw it away. He found, to his disgust, when he got home that day, that there was nothing in his fob. I hurried off with my prize, and got it stowed away in safety, intending to have it melted down next day. Now, it happened that this watch possessed a special value in the owner’s eyes because it was a sort of an- cestral possession—presented by his father on coming of age, or something of that sort. I remember there was a long in- scription on the back. He was determin- ed not to lose it if he could help it, and ac- cordingly he put an advertisement in an evening paper offering thirty pounds re- ward for its return, and promising that no questions should be asked. He gave the address of his house, 31 Caroline square, at the end of the advertisement. The thing sounded good enough, so I set off for Caroline square, leaving the watch in a parcel at a public house which I pass- ed on the way. When I got there, the gentleman was at dinner; but he came out quick enough when he heard that a young man wanted to see him. I suppose he guessed who the young man would prove

tobe. He was a genial-looking old fellow,
and he led me away with him into his
study.
“*Well, my lad,’ said he, ‘what is it?’
"I’ve come about that watch of yours,’ said I, ‘I think I can lay my hands on it.’
“Oh, it was you that took it! said he.
“*No,’ I answered; ‘I know nothing whatever about how you lost it. I have been sent by another party to see you about it. Even if you have me arrested, you will not find out anything.’
“*Well,’ he said, ‘I don’t want to be hard on you. Hand it over, and here is my cheque for the amount.’
“Cheques won’t do,’ said I; ‘I must have it in gold.’
“It would take an hour or so to collect in gold,’ said he.
““That will just suit,’ I answered, for I have not got the watch with me. I'll go back and fetch it, while you raise the money.’
“T started off, and got the watch where T had left it. When I came back the old gentleman was sitting behind his study table, with the little heap of gold in front of him.
“‘Here is your money,’ he said, and pushed it over.
“Here is your watch,’ said I.
“He was evidently delighted to get it back: and after examining it carefully, and assuring himself that it was none the worse, he put it into the watch pocket of his coat with a grunt of satisfaction.
“*Now, my lad,’ he said, ‘I know it was you that took the watch. Tell me how you did it, and I don’t mind giving you an extra five-pound note.’
*‘T wouldn’t tell youin any case,’ said I, ‘but especially I wouldn’t tell you when you have a witness hid behind that cur- tain.’ You see, I had all my wits about me, and it didn’t escape me that the cur- tain was drawn tighter than it had been before.
“*You are too sharp for us,’ said he, good humoredly. ‘Well, you have got your money, and that’s an end of it. Vil take precious good care you don’t get hold of my watch again in a hurry—good night —no; not that door,’ he added as I marched towards a cupboard. ‘This is the door,’ and he stood up and opened it. I brushed past him, opened the hall door, and was round the corner of the square in no time. I don’t know how long the old gentleman took to find it out, but in passing him at the door, I managed to pick his pocket for the second time, and next morning the family heirioom was in the melting pot after all. That wasn’t bad, was it?”
The old war-horse had evidently forgot- ten all about his conversion now. “Lhere was a tone of triumph in the conclusion of his anecdote which showed that his pride in his smartness far surpassed his repent- ance of his misdeeds. He seeped” pleased at the astonishment and amusement I ex- pressed at his adroitness. "
“Yes,” he continued with a laugh, “it was a capital joke. But sometimes the fun lies all the other way. Even the sharpest of us come to grief at times. There was

the anecdote, fort got Into print at tne time.”’
“Pray let me hear it,’’ said L
“Well, it is hard lines telling steries against one’s self, but this was how it happened: I had made arather good haul, and invested some of the swag in buying avery fine diamond ring. I thought it would be something to fall back upon when all the ready was gone and times were hard. Ihad just purchased it, and was going back to my lodgings in the om- nibus, when, as luck would have it, a very stylishly-dressed young lady came in and took her seat beside me. I didn’t pay much attention to her at first; but after a time something hard in her dress knocked up against my hand, which my experienc- ed touch soon made out to bea purse. It struck me that | could not pass the time more profitably or agreeably than by mak- ing this purse my own. I had todo it very carefully; but I managed at last to wriggle my hand into her rather light pocket, and 1 thought the job was over. Just at this moment she rose abruptly to leave the "bus, and I had hardly time to get my hand with the purse in it out of her pocket without detection. It was not until she had been gone some time that I found out thatin drawing out my hand in that hurried manner the new and ill fitting ring hed slipped over my finger and remained inthe young lady’s pocket. I sprang out and ran in the direction in which she had gone with the intention of picking her pocket once again. She had lisappearec, however; and from that day till this I have never set eyes on her. To make the matter worse, there was only four pence half-penny-in coppers inside the purse. Sarve me right for trying to rob such a pretty girl; still, tf I had that two hundred quid now I should not be re- duced heavens, forgive me! What am I saying*”
Iie seemed inclined to relapse intosilence after this; but I was determined to draw him out a little more, if I could possibly manage it. ‘*There is less personal risk in the brauch you have been talking of,” I remarked, “than there is in burglary.”
“Ah?” he said, warming to his subject once again, “it is the higher game which is best worth aimingat. Talk about sport, sir, talk about fishing or hutting! why it is tame in comparison! Think of the great country house with its men servants and its dogs and its firearms, and you with only your jimmy and your center bit, and your mother wit, which is best of all. It is the trinamph of iutellect over brute force, sir, as represented by bolts and bars.’*
“People generally look upon it as quite the reverse,” I remarked.
“IT was never one of those blundering life-preserver fellows.” said my compan- ion. “I did try my hand at garrotting once, but it was against my prineiples, and I gave itup. I have tried everything. I have been a bed-ridden widow with three young children; but I do object to physical force.”
“You have been what?” said I.
“A bedridden widow. Advertising, yor know, and getting subscriptions. I hare tried them all. You seem interested ihe these experiences,” he continued: ‘so I will tell you another anecdote. It was the narrowest escape for penal servitude the ever Lhad in my life. A paland I had gone down on a country beat—it doesn’t signify where it was—and taken upeur headquarters in a little provincial town. Somehow it got noised abroad that we were there, and householders were warn- ed to be careful, as suspicious characters had been seen in the neighborhoal. We should have changed our plans when we saw the game was up; but my chum was a plucky fellow, and wouldn’t consent to back down. Poor little Jim! He was only thirty-four round the chest, and about twelve at the biceps; but there is nota measuring tape in Ensland could haye given the size of his heart. Hesaid we were in for it, and we must stick to it: so Iagreed to stay, and we chose Morley hall, the country house ef a certain Col. Morley, to begin with,
“Now this Col. Morley was about the las¢ man in the world that we shovid have meddled with, Ble was a shrew, cool- headed fellow, who had knoeked about and seen the world, and it seems that he took a special pride in the detection of criminals. However, we knew nothing of all this at that time; so we set forth hope- fully to havea try at the house.
“The reason that made us pick him out among the rest was that he had a good-for- nothing groom, who was a tool in our hands. This fellow had drawn upa roush plan of the premises for us. The place was pretty well locked up and guarded, and the only weak point we could see wax a certain trapdoor, the padlock of which was broken, and which opened from the roof into one of the lumber rooms. If we could only find any method of reaching the roof, we might force away securely from above. We both thought the plan rather a good one, and it had a spice of original- ity about it which pleased us. It is not the mere jewels or plate, you know, that a good cracksman thfnks about. The neatness of the job and his reputation for smartness are almost as important in his

~ STABLE CARE OF COWS.
The Change of Diet Kendered Necessary by Stabling Shoall be Gradual,
The change from wet to dry or fram grass to dry feed should be made grad- ual. One dry feed a day and that at night should b2 given. Housing should commence as soon as the nights are frosty. In the morning feed a liberal ration of grain. After 8 or 10 days give dry feed only, adding as a ration some potatoes, apples, mangels or tur- nips to keep up the juices and better the digestion of the dry food.
Clover hay should always be proviced for milch cows, early cut when just in the blossom. AJ] kinds of grasses, to get best results, shculd be cut when in the ful blossom; if cut later their value for feeding purposes is very much diminished. The woody fibre is of no value for nutriment. Plenty of sweet clover hay that has been properly cured by cutting it afler the dew is off and put in the cock before dew falls and cured for two days, and put in the mow direct from the bunch with a lit- tle slack lime sown on each load will sweat out nice and be sweet and suc- culent—as good as any feed I have ever used.
A little corn mcal will aid to the value of a ration for milk. No animal should be housed cr stabled without 4 good clean bed. The man that starves his cows for food cr bedding is unjust to himself and cruel to the cow that does her best to return all she can in the way of production. Kindness con- sists in the feeding as wll as the treat- ment. It will p: y to give each on? a good carding, cr, better, use a brush. Give ample exercise and out-of-door rest from the stable. Animals becume diseased by being kept in too much confinement, as thcir whole system is thus disorganized.
Sun and air are as much a requisite as the comfortable stable to health an! vigor. Regularity in feeding and ex- ercise is quite as essential as in milk- ing. It will not be a necessity to dec- horn cattle when they are proverly treated, It is the d’spositjon of the ani- mal to be irritable when she suffers in any way. Provide in season everything for its seasonable use and if there is 2 lack in one element supplant it by thet which approximates to it the nearest.— Farm and Home.
The Read Question.
There is at present much agitation concerning the improvement of coun- try roads, and a lot of nonsense is be- ing published. It is true we need hct- ter roads, but these cannot be had without taxation, and the farmer: of this country are not in a position to be more heavily taxed. I thing that it is absurd to talk about the roads of England, G«rmeny and Fran>. These have been centuries in building. Most writers seem to forget that our country is Only in its infancy. When it is as old as England, our roads will be as good. We have th: material, and in time country roads will be built, just as I have seen the work Gone in old England long ago. It can- not all be done at once. It is a libel on the farmer to say that he does tot work out his road tax. Who built the roads, if not the farmers? The farmer has improved many of the roads by adding gravel. He has bridged im- passable streams and has changed long stretches of marsh into a roadbed, an.l has made it possible for the city dude to spin Over our reads on his bicycle. He will continue to do his share to- ward the improvement, but he must have help and time.—American Agri- culturist.
Watering Horses.
A horse has been known to live twenty-five days without food, »ut where it had access to plenty of ‘wa- ter; severiteen days without eating or Grinking,and only five days when eating @clid food without drinking. Horses have a small, sensitive stomach, and should be watered as frequently as the system demands it. That is, as often as the horse wants to drink. In hot fummer days, plenty of water supplies perspiration and keeps down tem- perature. There is sOme danger In having a horse become very thirsty and then drinking too much, Freque»t watering prevents this. It is wel] to have horses accustomed to be'nge wa- tered before being fed grain. The sys- tem is supplied, and there is no danger of washing the food out of the stomach, which frequently happens when hors:>s are fed a full ¢neal when thirsty, and then given all the water they will drink. . This may cause colic and scour- ing. Care in watering will add sreatly to the comfort and health of the horse.—Farming.
Kill the Weeds.
Weeds are an abomination to every good fermer and it is very unsatisfac- tory to try to keep down the weeds on one’s own farm when his adjoining neighbors all around him let theirs grow and go to seed. Most of our weeds are from Europe; come ty ts under “free trade,” as our shoddy Enz- lish woollen goods do now, but they are better, for with persistent energy we can down the weeds if our neighbors will help us. We may keep our own farms nearly clear, but we can’t the farms on every side of us, Very few bad weeds grow on my farm. I make it a regular business to go over my Ppesture every ten days at least and eut or pull every English or Scotch thistle, cocklebur, burdock, Jamestown weed, Indian mallow and all nettles «x- cept the bull nettle, which nothing but a heavy dose of salt will kill, Getting or pulling the bull nettle only lasts for about ten days. Poke weed and mul- leins find no home with me. The wee/s mentioned, if they do not pull up eas- ily, will not grow again if cut off at the crown. I make it a rule never to pass a noxious weed without giving it personal attention. If all farmers would adopt the same rule there would be a great saving of time and better — P.
