looked behind hint and bolted after.

dog, had comp round tee fire- to Andy,
and the ioase end• of the fuse had
trailed end waggled over the burning
sticks into the .blaz", Andy had slit
and nicked the ,tiring end of 'the fuse
well, and now It was hissing and spit-
ting properly. •
Andy's legs started with a telt: Ills
legs•started before his brain did, and
he made after Dave and Jim. And the

Dave aid Tim were good ruiners-
Jim the best -for a short distance;
Andy was slow and heavy, but he had
the strength attd the wand and could

lighted as a dog 'coui t be to find his
urates ,as he thought, on for a grotto.
Dave and Jim Icept shouting back:
"Don't fuller us! Don't feller us; yon'
colored fool!" But Andy kept en, no
matter how they dodged. They could
never explain, any more than the dog,
they could eat; but now it was winter, why they followed each other, but so
they ran; Dave keeping in Jim's track
and these fish wouldn't bite, How- In alt its turnings, Andy after Dave,

of muddy water -holes, from the hole
,with a few bucketfuls to it to the size-
able pool with an average depth of six
or seven feet, and they could get fish
by bailing out the smaller holes or
muddying up the water in, the larger
. ones till the fish rose to the surface..
1There was the cat -fish, with spikes
growing out of the sides of Its head,
and if you got pricked you'd know it,
as Dave said. • Andy took off •leis boots,.
• tucked up his trousers, and went into.
a hole one dayto stir up the' mud with.
• his -feet, and he knew it. Dave scoop-
ed one out with his 'hand and got
pricked, and he knew it too; his arm
swelled, and'•the pain throbbed up into
his shoulder, and down Into kis stem-
aob'too, Ise said, like a toothache he
shad once, and kept him awake for two
nights—only the toothache pain had
a "burre.d edge," Dave saki.
Dave got an idea.
'Why not blow the fish up le the
big •waterhole with a cat'trldge?" he
tsaid. "I'll try it." .
He thought the thing out, and Audy
Page worked it out. Andy usually put
, Dave's theories into practice if they
were practicable, or bore the blame Inc
the failure and the chaffing of his
ates if they. weren't.
He made a cartridge about three
time's the size of those they used in
the rock. Jim Beatty said it was big
enough to blow the bottom Out of the
river. The inner skin was of stout
calico; Andy stuck the end of a six-
foot piece of twee well down in the
powder and bound the month of the
bag firmly to it with whipcord. The
idea was to sink the 'cartridge in the
water with the open end ot the fuse
Attached to a float on .the surface,
ready for lighting. Andy dipped the
artridge in melted beeswax to make
, t watertight, "We'll have to leave it
. Aerie time before we light it," said.
Pave, "to give the fish time to get over
their scare when we put it in, and
'come nosing round again; so We'll
ivtint it well watertight."
Australia's- Favorite Author
Dave Regan, Jim' Beatty, and Andy
Page, were sinking a shaft at Stony
Creek in search oh a rich gold quartz
reef which was supposed to exist in
the vicinity. There is always a rich
reef supposed to exist in the vicinity;
and time -fuse. • They'd n,alw t sausage
or cartridge of blaotiugeaavcier la : a
skin of strong calico dr canvas, ,the
month'sewn and bound round the end
of the fuse; they'd alp the cartridge
in melted, tallow : to make it water-
tight; get the drill-hole as dry as pos-
sible, drop in the cartridge with some
dry dust, and'wad'and ram with stiff
clay and broken' brick. Theo they'd
light the fuse and get out Of the hole
and wait. The result was usually an
ugly pot -hole in the bottom of the
shaft and a half a barrow -load of
broken rock.
There was plenty .01' fish in the
'Creek, freshwater bream, cod, cat•llah,
and tatters. The party were fond of
fish, and Andy and Dave of fishing.
Andy would fish for three hours at a
stretch -if encouraged by 'a "nibble" or
,a "bite" now and then—say, once in
twenty minutes. ' The butcher was .al-
• sways willing to give, meat in exchange
for fish when they caught more than

suggestion, bound gastral of gall can-

he'd made a mistake about Andy, anti

There was a smell hotel or shanty
on the creek, on the main road, not far
from the claim. Dave was desperate,
the tine flew much faster in his stimu-
lated Itnaginatiou than it did in reality,
so he made for the shanty. There
were several casual bushmen on the
verandah and in tete bar. Dave rushed
to the bar, banging the door to behind
him. "My dog!" he gasped, in reply
to the astonished stare of the pubiicah,
"the blenky retriever—he's got a live

The retriever, finding the front door
shut against him, had bounded round.
and in by the back way, and now
stood smiling in the doorway leading
frons the passage, the cartridge still
in his mouth and the fuse sptutteriug.
They burst out of that bar. Tommy
bounded grst after one and then after
another, for, beteg a young dog, he
tried to make friends with everybody.

some shut themselves In the stable.

I Shall Walk Today
By Grace Noll CroWell, iu"Scribners.".
1 Shall walk to -day upon a high green
hill,
I shall forget the walls and the roofs
of the totivn;
This bhrden, strapped to my back,
shall be unloosed,
And I shall leave it there when I come
down.
Warm is the hill upon which I shall
walk today;
Gold isthe sue upon the close -cropped
grass,
And something of the peace of grazing
sheep
Shall permeate my being as"t pass:
Something of the look •within.. their
eyes
OE upland pastures, and 01 clean wind
blown—
The tranquil, trusting look of those
who know
And shepherd watches, I shall make
my own.
And I shall gather the little wind flow-
ers there,
And press their sweetness upon my
heart to stay, '
Then I shall go bacic•te the, walls and
t the roots of the town,
Stronger than I have been for many

Equerry Building
"Equerry Building" is the name pre.
tarred by the Royal Winter Fair for
its magnificent modern accommoda-
tion for 1,200 of the best horses in Can-
ada and the•United States. The plainer
word "stables" does not properly con•
vey au idea of the purpose or the
splendour of the building. The horses
—aristocrats of blue blood, some of
them valued at $10,000 and $20,000—
are as much' on display while resting
in the stalls as in tete show ring, and
they can be bust as interestingly view-
ed by the public. Sucha distinctive
place deserves the distinguishing
name, and the Oxford English diction-
ary—the
ictionary—the last court of appeal in cur-
rent English—supplies It in its defini-
tion of equerry as follows: "The stab-
les belonging to a royal household,"
The right to the use of the word
"Royal" conferred on the Royal. Win-
ter Fair by tete Governor-Genaral
make's the term equerry particularly
appropriate in the circumstances, The
building will be fittingly ivaugm'ated
at the opening oa the Winter Fair,
November '18.

thus emulating • the example of the
