Fenclon displayed so much precocity lhat he won fame as a preacher of rare ehiqueuce when he was but fifteen years of age. Pascal wrote treatises on acoustics at twelve ami at sixteen he published his treatise on conic sections, which Descartes refused to believe was not the work of a great master. Of more recent and familiar feats of precocl'y It may be sufficient to mention that John Stuart Mill was studying Greek at three, had practically mastered the language at seven and a year Inter was acting as schoolmaster to his younger brothers and sisters; while, to give hut one other example.

MEET ME AT

George Du Maurier, Whose ‘'Trilby” It Immortal, Celebrated as Master of Three Arts.

George Du Maurier was singularly I talented. He could have made a Iasi- j big reputation us an artist, a writer or a caricaturist—lie stands immortal ns a master of all three arts. He was born March fi, 1834, and died in 180C. He was the son of a naturalized Englishman—a man who hud left Fauce to escape the reign of terror. He himself was born in 1’uris ami much of Ids early youth was passed there. Ills life was ideally happy. His “gay and Jovial” father brought him l up in a charming home; his pretty wife was an object of adoration t<> him; Ids success was certain from the

start.

Intending first to be a chemist, he soon found that ids real vocation was art, so lie went to the Latin quarter ( in Paris ami later to Holland to study, j In London he joined the stalY of Punch, a connection he kept for 30 years. Besides the light and graceful cartoons for Punch lie exhibited water color

aketches.

Late in life tie began writing novels, j “Peter Ibbetson” and “Trilby” were ! especially well received. "Trilby” was i dramatized and produced In 1895, a \ear before Du Muurier’s death, by Sir Herbert Beerbobm Tree. Lately it has been revived with Immense sue- ;

the last ones to shreds.

Now let us put the saddle on l/Os»|e, and be off to our one amusement—ihe exciting quest for mail at the distant

post office.

Billy, recognizing one single word, I became at once excitedly alert, and the girl changed her chatter to a merry whistle as she saddled the slim pony and went picking her way down the narrow path through Hie growth. “Who is she?” tlie man asked of old Annie, who came in to do his chorea, i Old Annie didn’t know. “A summer stranger." she thought, |

“prnh’ly.”

The •'summer stranger," advancing, wondered impatiently why In the world the nice man lay always lazily In his long wicker chair. Why didn’t . he move and stir about, as one of ids | athletic build might be expected to 1 do? Then her face clouded in quick • compunction—close to the man's chijir | stood a crutch. He was lame, then-- i a cripple. Her heart beat faster as j lie sat up and called to her. He was | asking some favor, and if in remorse j for her unkind criticism there was i anything that she could do— Sin* ! reined In Lassie promptly and flashed at the man an entrancing smile. "You asked me—?” site questioned. “I wonder," he asked—his voice was pleasing—"if you are going down for the mail? And if so, could I ask you also to bring mine. 1 am—unable to go by myself, you see, and am expecting an important communication. You will pardon, I hope," lie finished, "my

boldness."

Fishing Superstition*.

The salmon fisheries of California in-ed to lie resjionslhle for n queer custom on the part of the Indians, F.verv spring they would "dance for salmon." If the fish did not appear with the celerity deemed appropriate, there would be employed a "wise man" who made an Image of a swimming fish which was placed in the water In the hope of attracting live fish to the bait. The Japanese fishermen have the quaint notion that silence must be observed. and even the women left at home are not permitted to talk lest the fish should hear and disapprove. Among the member* of the primitive rree of Aluus. the first fish caught Is brought In through a window instead of a door, so that the other fish "may

not see."
