and a atari (u ilu« new world. Per-
hapa they have merely absorbed the
current European opinion that the
way to fortune and comfort lira
through the gates of New York. A
atrlking contraat la offered between
the experience of the American fleet
on Ita recent world tour and the uaual
experience of the fleets visiting this
country. It was one of the boasts of
the returning American ships that the
men aboard and ashore had conducted
themselves with almost prefect de-
corum; that none bud deserted, though
opportunities to do so had been many.
This Is not to argue that American
tars are any better grade of men
than those of other mtvles—though we
are pleased to believe they are—but
merely indicates their different point
of view.

The custom of turning up the trous-

ginated In the metropolla of Oreat
Britain. Its practice there has been
universal for several generations, and
baa been imitated by Americana af-
fecting English styles. Years ago,
when the fashion of trousera too long
for the legs of the wearera, with the
deliberate intention that they ahould
be perpetually turned up, waa flrat in-
troduced, the humorous paragraphera
said that Anglomaniacs who adopted
it were going about with their trous-
ers turned up because it waa raining
in London. From London, however,
comes now a warning voice to the ef-
fect that turning up the trousers Is a
practice prejudicial to health. London
Is suffering from an epidemic of In-
fluenza, and a physician connected

American exporters, it appears from
a report of Special Agent Butman, are
not sufficiently courteous in their busi-
ness correspondence with Spanish-
American dealers, and the fact is rep-
resented as operating to our disadvan-
tage. Politeness goes far with the
Latin-American buyer, he points out,
and an instance is cited of loss of
trade due to a curt acknowledgment
by a New York house of a check from
a Panama importer. Kxcept with the
mercantile firms of the old school with
which traditions are strong, the omis-
sion has become general from com-
mercial correspondence of the formu-
las of courtesy which once character-
ized it. The little niceties of phrase-
ology with which letters were begun
or ended are dispensed with under the
new order of office economies. In
which time-saving has become the
tualn thing.
The disruption of the international
potash syndicate, which is reported
from Germany, calls attention to an
industry that has grown to enormous
proportions in recent years. Potash
is used for reviving impoverished
soils. There are immense beds of it
in Germany and in the United States.
During the present year Germany haa
taken steps to prevent the exportation
of potash from Germany. It la
pected that very low prices will result
from the disagreement between the
owners of large German mines.
The popular conception of warm
countries, like Mexico, la that they are
lands of plenty, because of the auccea-
slon of crops that can be readily
raised. But Mexico reports an experi-
ence auggestlng a different atate of
things. An appeal comes from Guana-
juato, where the crops were destroyed
by an unusual visitation of cold
weather and frost ,he government
haa ordered from the United Statea by
telegraph 200,000 bushels of corn, and
undoubtedly more will have to be pro-
Tided.
CHAPTER XVI.—Continued.
"Would It not be best for Mr. Win
thrope to rest during the noon hours?"
'"Fraid not, Miss Jenny. We're not
on t'other side of Jordan yet, and
there's no rest for the weary this
aide."
"What odd expressions you use, Mr.
Blake!"
"Just giving you the reverse appllca
♦Ion of one of those songs they jolly
us with In the mission churches—"
"I'm sure, Mr. Blake—"
"Me, too, Miss Jenny! So, as that's
settled, we'll be moving. Chuck some
live coals In the pot, and come on."
He started off, weapons in hand
Wlnthrope made a languid effort to
take possession of the pot. But Miss
Leslie pushed him aside, and wrap
ping all in the antelope Bkln, slung it
npon her back.
"The brute!" exclaimed Wlnthrope.
"To leave such a load for you, when
he knew that I can do so little!"
The girl met his outburst with a
brave attempt at a smile. "Please try
to look at the bright side; Mr. Wln-
thrope. Really, I believe he thinks it
Is best for us to exert ourselves."
He has other opinions with which
we of the cultnred class would hardly
agree. Miss Leslie. Consider his com-
mand that we shall go thirsty until
he permits us to return to the cliffs.
The man's Impertinence Is intoler-
able. I shall go to the river and drink
when I choose."
"Oh, but the danger of malaria!"
"Noneense. Malaria, like yellow
fever, comes only from the bite of
certain species of mosquitoes. If we
have the fever, it will be entirely his
fault. We have been bitten repeated-
ly this morning, and all because he
must compel us to come with him to
this infected lowland."
"Still, I think we should do what
Mr. Blake says."
"My dear Miss Genevieve, for your
sake I will endeavor not to break with
the fellow. Only, you know, it is
deuced hard to keep one's temper
when one considers what a bounder—
what an unmitigated cad—"
"Stop! I will not listen to another
word!" exclaimed the girl, and she
hurried after Blake, leaving Wln-
thrope staring In astonishment.
"My word!" he muttered; "can it
be, after all I've done—and him, of all
the low fellows—"
He stood for several moments in
deep thought. The look on his sallow
face was far from pleasant

Then the girl found her volee.

shouted. "It'a death—sure death, If

That was a thorn. I drew it out
an hour ago."
Blake looked up Into her basal eyea.
They were biasing with indignant
scorn. He freed her, and rose with
clumsy slowness. Again he glanced
at her quivering, acarlet face, only to
look away with a sheepish expression,
"I guess you think I'm just a
damned meddleaome idiot," be mum-

She did not answer. He stood for
a little, rubbing a finger across his
sun-blistered lips. Suddenly ha
stopped and looked at the Unger, It
was streaked with blood.
"Whew!" he exclaimed. "Didn't

for me. Miss Jenny, that waan't an ad-
der bite. A little poison on my sore
lip would have done for me. Ten to

toes at the same time. Of course,
though, tbat'd be nothing to you."
Miss Leslie put her hands before
her face and burat into hyaterical
weeping.
Blake looked around, far mora
alarmed than when facing the adder.

close beside the ant-hill.
"Get a move on you!" called Blake.
"You're slow. Grab a bunch of leaves,
and get Into the smoke, If you don't

Wlnthrope neither gathered any
leaves nor hurried himself, until he
was visited by a highly irrltsted bee.

with satisfaction as he licked hlB lin-

"What's the matter with my expe-

"I—ah—must admit, Blake, we have
had a most enjoyable change of food."
"If you are sure it will agree with
you," remarked Miss Leslie.
"But I am sure of that. Miss Gene-

I'm fairly ravenous."
"All the more reason to be careful,1
rejoined Blake. "I guess, though,
what we've had'll do no harm. We'll
let It settle a bit, here In the shade,
and then hit the home trail."
"Could we not first go to the river,
Mr. Blake? My hands are dreadfully
sticky."
"Win will take you. It's only a lit-
tle way to the bank here and there's
not much underbrush."
"If you think it's quite safe—" re-
marked Wlnthrope.
"It's safe enough. Go on. You'll
see the river in half a minute. Only
thing, you'd better watch out for alli-
gators."
"I believe that—er—properly Bpeak-
Ing, these are crocodiles."
"You don't say! Heap of difference
it will make if one gets you."
Miss Leslie caught Winthrope's eye.
He turned on his heel, and led the
way for her through the first thicket.
Heyond this they came to a little glade
which ran through to the river. When
they reached the bank, they stepped
cautiously down the muddy slope, and
bathed their hands in the clear water.
As Miss Leslie rose, Wlnthrope bent
over and began to drink.
"Oh, Mr. Wlnthrope!" ahe ex-
claimed; "please don't! In your waak
condition, I'm ao afraid—"
"Do not alarm yourself. I am per-
fectly well, and I am quite aa compe-
tent to judge what Is good for me as
your—ah—countryman."
"Mr. Wlnthrope, I am thinking only
of your own good."
Wlnthrope took another deep
draught, rinsed bis fingers fastidious-
ly, and arose.
"My dear Miss Genevieve," he ob-
served, "a woman looks at these mat-
ters in such a different light from a
man. But you should know that there
are some things a gentleman cannot
stolerate."
"You were welcome to all the water
In the flask. Surely with that you
could have waited. If only to please
me."
"Ah, If you put it that way, I must
beg pardon. Anything to please you.
I'm sure! Pray rorgive me, and for-
get the Incident It is now past"
"I hope so!" she murmured; but her
heart sank as she glanced at hla sal-
low face, and she recalled his languid,
feeble movements.
Piqued by her look, Wlnthrope
started back through the glade. Miss
Leslie wss turning to follow, when
she caught eight of a gorgeous crim-

waa the first flower she had aeen since
