"Still hard at worth., are you, Biffy'?
Why, llddlto, Jack!—flow long have you

Breen, don't you ?—Yea, of course you
do --new meantber—just et:'olted. Get
a ,wave on that dancase of yours, Bitf-
fy, .and let somebody else get up to
that table. A7blamtes, take the orders."
Jack had shaken ovelrybudy's hand
by this time, Batton 'having moved
back a foot or two, and the cattle
'had Widened so that the poker (party
could reach their ooclotails. Garry ex-
tended his arm 'till ibis harsh' me•sted un
Jack's shoulder.
"Notting eats me us) t'ik'e a gutrne

all over it to -day. Oh, by the way!
Did that old chunk of sandstone come
up to see you least night? What did
you say his name west?"
Jack repeated Peter's cognomen—
this time without nulling the spil1alrl'es
under hie tongue --solid than Mr. Way-
s= had kept his 'promise; that the
evening had been delightful, and im-
mediately ethanged ,the ouabject. There
was no use trying to convert Garry.
"And now telt me about the Me-
sser'," asked J'alok.
"Oh, that was all right. We whoop-

then went home With 'the milk. Had

naore important than the angle of a

of a group of young Men who had

'wife. He had once sat next to her
at dinner, when her whole Conversa-
tion had been about this new home
and the keen intereht ehat :Morris, a
friend of Iter fat'her's, had taken in
it. "Mr. Breen, you and Mass Corinne
must be aaitpng our eari'iest guests,"
she had said, tat vehich Corinne, who
was next to Garry, .had ducked her
Battle head in taeceptance. This was
the young fellow, 'then, who had been
caught, in one of the edd ies wlhirling
over the sunken rucks of Atte Street.
Nbt very creditable to his inte'!ligence
'perhaps, thought Jack; but, then, a-
gain, who had placed them :there, a
menace to navigation?—and why?
Cerltatinly Peter could riot have known

,him, if he tiought the efeort of so
insignificant ar individual as himself
could be of use in clearing out ob-
structions 'like tthese.
Garry noticed the though, `u1 ex-
pression settling aver Jack's face, and
mistaking the cause celled Charles to
take the additional orders.
"Cheer up—try a high -ball, Jack.
It's none of your funeral. You didn't
scoop Gilbert; we are the worst suf-
ferers. Can't finish his .house maw,
and Mr. Morris is just wild over the
design. Dt's on a ledge of rock over-
looking the hake, and the whole thing
