"Excnae me." she said, “but you look “Funny!" I exclaimed Indignantly. •'What have you lieen up to) You've been throwing water over me." "Ye*, you have. Look here, my face ia all wet now. and my hair Is damp." “I didn't throw water over you. I MUppoDe It was rather forward, but 1 put tlie end of my tall on your face. You looked so tempting, you know, lying there. I really could not resist you." "Well, you shouldn't, then." I aald. “Now you've woke me up. and aome of the water ha* gone down my neck." I spoke grumpily. Ton see, I was scarcely myself yet. It was so ntterly Incomprehensible that I should be sitting tiere with an aheolnte mermaid, g creature I bad never for a moment believed In. sitting almost close enough for me to touch. 1 had wandered off that afternoon among tbe bowlders that lay piled up •■n the shining beach at the foot of the cliffs to the left of the little town. It was very hot wo hot that after aklmi'..iu; through the columns of the pal«r 1 had brought'with me I lay back and snoozed In blissful disregard of the glaring sun and the white rocks and the low ripple of the retreating tide. And then happened all I have deacrllied. “Do you know you snore)" she said suddenly. .Said I. "You must he a very mischievous girl—mermaid. 1 mean." "Oh. no. I'm not—not nearly so bod as some.

"Thanks awfully; no. not now. but PH take It with me If yon don't mind Smoke your pipe, will youT* "With great pleasure. Sure you don't mind)” "Not a bit Besides, I want yon tn !et me light It." So 1 pulled out my pipe and filled It. and Maud, with a sinewy loop of he.' tall, glided np to me. She seemed highly delighted at lielnc allowed to stiikc the match for me to get a light by. "Isn't this JollyT' she said, lookin', up at me with wonderful eyes. "Rather." I said, looking down Into them. “Do you often go In for thla sort of thing?" "Well. now.

"Aren't there) I suppose It’a rather lonely." “I used to be spoons a little with one at Brighton, but we never see one here. That's old Nep's doings. I haven't been kissed for ever so long." "Really!" 1 aald. edging over toward

her.

••Really,” she sighed, looking down.

I fell over luickward. nnd by tbe time 1 bad got the sand and wet out of my eyes the mermaid bad disappeared. No trace of her was left, but my newspaper was gone, and as I went slowly home 1 fancied I could catch sight of her. lying ont by the big black rock that Just showed Itself above tbe sen. 1 stood still and called to her and distinctly saw her white arms waved to me and beard tbe rippling of her laugh and saw. too. her long brown ' hair tossing on tbe wares.

A New York woman who bos employed several Japanese male servants declares that she will have no more of them. “I do not care." she says, "to have a butler or waiter who. however humble be may appear, carriea with him the air of knowing more about everything than I do. A Japnneaa aervant will do na be I* told, but his manner of doing It suggests that be knows a better way." According to a Shelbyvlllc correspondent. Combs P.

All the evidence at hand goes to favor tbe Idea advanced by Sir Isaac Newton that the motions of bod la in space are suffering retardation and that their velocity Is steadily being diminished to tbe point where It will ultimately cease.
