Look et No. 5., I whispered. She started slightly. Where ? she said looking towarcl the door, and then I realized that I had used the name by which WO had called our new friend, Mr. I3lakiston Where, Philippa repeated, turning toward me. I—I—meant the girl W'ln comes next, I said apologetically. Oh ! I thougl't you meant Mr. Illakiston, calmly said Philippa; so Can{ly, in fact that I said to myself: You're wrong! She doesn't care for hint—not that way. The orchestra was playing very softly. Girl No. 5 was becoming almost green with terror. Every- thing was husliod and quiet, when from without came a second ebul- lition of hoots and howls. Philippa muttered an exclamation and started for the door. I followed in time to catch a vanishing glimpse of the last pair of heels and areverberating cello of the last round of howls. We stood there debating what we should do. There is just one thing that you can do with a small boy, said Phil. ippa tinally. You can't scare him off, and you can't plead with him, and you can't reason with him.

It appears to be a rule among the employees there to roast every new man who is taken on, to see what kind of stuff he is made of. A few days ago a new man was taken on, and as he seemed to be a little soft, the older hands put up a game on hits. One of then in a confidential manner informed him that a certain other hand was a dangerous chara.eter, and that he had already killed three sten. He 'vas fyrther informed that these iiiilydei's Were a1 WAS1 COtltt.uitted at night, some what atter the manner of Jack•the-Ripper. That night the Ripper, entered his bed -room armed with a knife and a lantern and the terrified occupant of the bed glade a spring for the window. He reached the outside with nothing on but a shirt and ran for miles three eebefore calling a halt. A fat mei' at whose house he called took hie) for a mad elan, and put the clogs on hint. This ['tightened the tlnfor•tnnate elan wurSe than ever, and he kept on running till daylight. Finally he was appre`lended as 0 vagrant and was seta to Owen Sound jaiI. A 1.•NI:OZ t,i.LI.
