He ascended the stairs md tried tlie The catch was down and he had no He was Kicked in the for the key of the door he knew was in lie could hardly think what had lietter do about the but finally he concluded to try to make his wife hear him and come to his He seized the long and heavy furnace and inserting the crook of it above tlie bell wire that ran along the joist of the cellar ceiling he The

Whita ker was probably sleeping with tlie deaf car This increased nnd he pulled the with the poker fifteen or twenty I could hear that a mile from here if I were as deaf as a post he exclaimed MS he threw the poker on floor and took his seat with the bell still But Whitaker did not hear the for no sound of her coming reached the ears of her impatient and indignant He grew angrier ever He felt a

and the baby will wake but no response came down the The baby Kerned to be sleeping with almost supernatural and Whitaker had her deaf ear Whitaker was almost beside him self with A he who would treat her husband in such a manner as this is capable of hither Ellen will stop sleeping with her deaf ear or we will A third time he applied his lips to the tin pipe and bawled into it until he was He thought he heard his spouse walking across the but when he called again there was no The soul of Whitaker was filled with In hia anger he indulged in sardonic ffl she rather relishes having me down in the cellar here all night it iaa good joke But let her take care She may laugh the other ride of her mouth before we lire done with business And lie laughed a wild and bitter Poor sleeping sweetly up

protected tlie window and pushed it Then procuring a wash tub ami climbing from jt to tlie window sill he thrust his out and dragged his body WRen be reached the front pavement his face wax covered with cobwebs und his clothes with coal dust but he exulted in the though I that lie was a free lie took liis deadlatch kev from bis and was about to try and open the front when lie remembered that he had locked the door and put u the chain There was no use trying to ring the The wire was and Whitaker wouldnt hear the bell if the wire hadnt been There was but one last hope of making her and that was by throwing gravel stones against the tried the The first handful pro no The sleeper did not bear Neither did sho hear the sec ond nor the nor the which was dashed against the glass with such violence that Whitaker cx to it shivered to Whitaker was at his wits There was a faint light burning in the and as he looked up at it ami thought wife slumbering mi while he was in such great his wrath grew so tierce that he felt ca of doing something Hut what should he do The poor lady was us much his for the as if she had been in He fora moment of trying to borrow it but where could he get a ladder in the middle of the night No as his sense of injury he more and more resolved that he would punish Kllen somehow for her As he not obtain admission to his own house why should he not fly Why should he not go and his wife something to worry in repayment for all the wrong she bud inflicted upon him liy against his earnest and repeated re in sleeping with her deaf ear up Whitaker turned passionately away from the house ami walked rapidly down the He hud no particular destination in his but he hurried along with a vague notion that he might perhaps go to a hotel when he felt In u few

creating a market for his The tale was to the effect that some years ago a firm in conceived the idea that it would be a good thing to send the pennies they could get to Africa so a ship was loaded after the coin had been and i in due course of time it arrived in that verv warm Here the work of and the bright and shining coppers were traded off with the female for oils and other merchantable The Africans bored holes in Che coins and used them for The result of this was that pennies were wry The story is generally be by coin and as a result a flood penny of the year 1879 commands au the way
