Thrift" iS a wonderful v gaily In an ancestor. For the Boys an THE GHOST TI-! AT BILLY SAW • BY EBEN E. REXFORD. Tt was a rainy ssftornoon, The boys were in tile barn telling stories'sing- ing songs and trying to 'Make thee time pose pleasantly. 1 By the boys, I mean Frank and; Roscoe Wade, and their "hind man" -whose name was Jake -and Billy I Baker, one of the bays who lived- in , the neighbol'hood. • NOW Billy waSn't censidered very "bright." A sickness through which Ise had passed in infancy had left him rather weak, mentally; but, for all that, he wasn't a fool by any means. What he lacked in that 'ZirecticM, nature had made up to him in another, by giving him the strength of a yoUng giant. The riejghborhood boys dread- ed to. provoke Billy's wrath, for they Were sure to get the worst of 'it if he got hold -of them ' Ire , he'd given two or three ill- rnamenred fellows suoh a "going-over" for .getting of their silly jokes a‘t his mama& that he felt quite sure -they wouldn't attempt anything of the kind In future, and as he held' himself in readiness to resent any similar con- duct 0a the mtit of others; he was treated iVith a certain kind of respect by the looys. Sometimes, you know, fear will - make persons' behave themselves when. gentlemanly instincts which should prompt them to do'so are laiking. The conversation had turned on the "Do you beeeva there are any?" asked Billy, salemnlY, of Take. Jake wasea Germari and had- of the suptmetition .Characteristre of caintrWrien.. "Yes," answered Salta '..`Of course .do.. My father's seen 'ern," - At that- )31114s eyes stuck out fur- ther than ever. At last he had found, if not a man who had seen 0 ghost, one whose father had, and that 'was the peat best thing to, anding one who had'seen one for himself.' • Coming so direct, the testimony to the actual existence( of ghosts seemed convirroing enough to satisfy any but the most skeptical, "Whose ghat was it?" asked Billy, In a voice of awe. "His mother's," answered Jake. "ire. 51wit three times!! " "Three times I" xepeatedeBilia, in a whisper. "Oh, my! Wasn't he seed'?" "I stirose so," answered Jake, "110 ,didn't fee.y, but of couree he was," like to 'see ,000," said preseatly. "Most fczlks get mart, but I cimat b'leeve I would. I'd holler at one if I see it." "Mebhe," answered- Billy, thought- fully; "but 1 guestatot." ' "I don't' believe tiny on ,ever saw a ghost," said Roscoe. "They InaY think they do, but it's something else." "I never seen one, but / believe In arn, for an that," said Jake. ' "So do 1," said Billy. "I ain't afraid o' nothin'. I'd like'to see one, to see if I'd be afraid a that." "Maybe you will see one some said Frank, with a wink at Roseee. "If you do, you'll tell' us hove Id looks, and what it says to you, won't you?" By-and-by Jake went out to the sheep -yard, arta, Billy went with him, "I'M tell you how we can have some 'fun," said Prank. "One of us can dregs up like a ghost, and give Billy. 21, good" scare, I don't believe he's half as braye as be pretends to be. run, of courser, and then we could laugh at hira abent "'getting seared, when there -wasn't anything' to get scared at. Let's try it. What d'ye' I "I'm for it," answered Roscoe. "You be the ghost,and I'll`hide and see the' fab," I "He's going from here to the vil- lage, and won't come back till even- ing," said Frank, i'vven wait for , him down by the forks of the road."4 Now, as it happened, Billy had changed his mind about going to the sheePyard with Jake, and had stop- ped just outside the barndoor, and, standing there, hEr had heard every word the boys said. "So they think they're going to gem% mei" chuckled Billy. "Iiifebbe I woult1 be scart if tee a real ghost, but I'll bet this one won't make me'run. • 1'11 give )ern some fun, if that's what they want, an. inebbe 'two/A be as much furi for them as 'tis for me," and Billy ahuckled again , When Jake came back) Billy came with him, and the boys supposed he bad been with him all the 'While. 13illy lead fremient spells oa chuckling over something which they did not undeue stand1 leat as .he was always "queer " the' never once suspected the relal causeca keened/meat. When it was about time for therato ; expect Billy back from the viliagetbe' boys set out for the scene of their I anticipated fun, Prank had a sheet with him, .arith which .to carry out his ghostly deeeptioe. Roscoe hid himself behind a auntie of aldee-bushes.. Frank crouched be- hind a siunip close to.the road, from whose shelter ,he was to step out sud- denly and eonfront Billy when he came alone. Billy was not long iri corning, foi,he - WAS as anscrous,for the fun as theboys were. He felt angry te _think' that they deubted .his btalery, and he ;was indignant to thinit they would attempt to play such a trick on him. Heavent- I edto connance them, if not himself; of, his fearlessness, and he ease wanted ' to give vent to his resentment in a way that they wouldn't forget vory soon. ' 'Ho came up the road whistling. Just as he was opposite the stump, up 1:0g•C 11 tall figure in white. ; 'rile boys fully expected to see Billy ran as fait as his legs would carry I3ut Pc did no such thing. He stopped, starect hard- at the figure in "I'm th 1 t f C i kale' ' 3 g 0 511 11 ri was tha'rePlY, in a sei,u:Oral ,Captain Kidd was one of Billy's pet hermis. , 13e ,you a-lookin' for some o' the gold you buried?" asked J3illy.'" ."Yes'," ,answered the ghost. "If you'll dig by ,the old" oak tree down by the bend in the river, maybe you'll find a pot of it. "I'll see about it," answered Slily. "But if you're Cap'n Kidd, I b'leeve I'd orter thrashye for yer ,wicked , goin' to," And like a Rash, Billy sprang at the ghost and caught him by the arm, He had 'a long, tough stick of hickory in .hiS hand, and he la,ld it OVOr Frank's shOulders ,in "tt''-way that_tnatle him "yell . "Don't, Billy, don't!" died Frank; trying to break 'away, but Birey's strong hand held. him in -a grasp Of iron. "Let me go, pleasel 1 did it just to :have 'some fun""with you!" ' "An' I'm havin' some furt with yoa, jest as, I said I would if ever I see a ghost," said'Billy. "I didn't S'pose I'd see one so soon,....an'.here I ha a layin' it onto Cap'n ,Xidd. I say, cap'n, I like to hear- about. ye but don't you go Pearin' to me very often, or • I'll make it unhealthy fer ye, fer I reckon I'll hey to thrash ye fer old doin's ev'ry tiineI. camlay hands en ye. You didn't hive any many on folks; an' I won't an you." ..- And thick" and _fast fail the lol-etas err, Frank's. back. ., "Roscoe why don't you help? He's kiiling, MC , screamed Frank, but ,Resc,oe dared -not ,interfere. '"Her ye got some relation -Toured here, 'Caper?" asked. Billy. "If you hev, I'll give them a goin' over, too, now I've'got my _hand in. 1 can -do it 'jest .as Well as not." Roscoe had no doubt of his ability to do 11 11 the epportunityewateoffered. He didn't intend to allow him the op- portuntty, however; so he climbed over the fence and took a bee -line f or home, When Billy felt eatisfied that healed given the ghost of taptahi Kidd szsme of the punishment that "rather mythi- cal person deserved, if tradition is true,herelaxed his hold, and Prank freed hmse1f, -and left the scene. of his ghostly eacploits in a, manner mar expeditious than digniaed. Tf ver: there .was a thor5ough1yeamtoralized ?hist, he was the one. „. • e "oh, myl. but ain't it funny?"' 13aly °healed., "An' Capar Kidd'' ghost, - tool" And it was weeks before- he get over chuckling. The next day he came over to see the 'boys. "I see a ghost last night," he said •to Roscoe, Frank wasn't' to be seen. He -was sick," Roscoe said. Rosecre looked foolish, but asked no questions. • --"An' it was Cap'n Kidd's ghost," event on Billy; Solemnly. "Ola you needn't look 's ef you didn't bamve me," to Jake, "I was a real ghost. I grabbed hold on't an' whaled it with a hiek'ry stick, an' 1 atran't a bit afraid on'a nuther, . 1,111any h time after that Billy told them about his .adventure •with the ginist a Cap'n ICidda-and eaves% so soberly that they teeny believed, at laSt, that' he ..theanght he had seed, a ghost, and did not suspect their con- nection with the -affair. So lie got the credit oa lasing brava enough to face what he reaNy supposed was a yisitor from the dead. • If they could have known jug what he knew about it, they. could have easily accounted for his bravery. Frank's back was sore for a week. Every time he stirred for a- day or two, it made hiti. groans, and every time he greened lie made, up, his mind that you'd never ditch him playing ghost again. If there was any fan hi Id, he didn't find it. „ . A Palrozst s Secrets'. To siome people palmietry suggests quaelteroy.
