When ( re, turned to the car l found & tall, gaunt man in a broad slouch hat apparently about to take my seat but not yet actu­ ally taking it, Buys a writer in,the Con- temporal Review, A glance a t my acquaintances oppo­ site showed me why he hesitated. Each of them was holding a oup of coffee’ to ills moutli vvith hie left hand, while h is. right grasped a revolver covering the intruder. Time being short they were drinking their coffee while; they “kept the Britisher’s seat.” ,The tall stranger politely retired op my appearing, 'the ’ others put their revolvers in their hip pockets without any remark and we resumed our journey. 1 What amused me most of all. though was a glimpse 1got of a solemn-looking ' old man about half way down the Car, who had drawn out from somewhere an enormous, antiquated, ivory-handled six-shooter.'and was holding It with his huger On the trigger, ready to take a hand in any little festivity that might arise, 'fie looked So disappointed when it all ended in nothing th a t I felt' quite sorry for him. Every lawyer, says Mr Wakefield, keeps a revolver in a pigeon-hole of his desk and any in­ sult to a woman Is held to justify her friends in the immediate execution of iter instilter.

Our', children were all a t home then—the youngest eight yours old and the oldest, sixteen. Three of them ore married now and one ;s dead. It was poor little Quito, that the parrot took such a fancy for on that visit, and before the first day was ont he was Calling: ’Qidtai Oh, Quito.!’ till you couldn't, have told him from one of the family, lie .began calling me ’papa’ right away-In the most hff.;etlonute taatipcir, and he had a. fuhny way of going downstairs, hold­ ing on with his beak a t every step and letting himself down, shouting ht every breath: 'Olj,, Kcriall, Keriah!

He was taken upstairs to the hall, and then, a t Mrs. Robins* request, I uncovered the cage myself.

He .is there, yet, and he'calls her every day. Rut the way he tumbles down that stair- ease, calling for Kesrah! That would make yo;u laugh! He doesn't take kindly to onr new servant girl, and evi­ dently considers her an interloper.
