If It hgd not been for my cheese scruple

Gray Mouse and White Rabbit went
every night and got all the cheese In that

cl.e.se that he did not know what to do
with It. and White Rabbit feasted on car
rots. They paid no attention to Green
Eves at all. Whenever the cat came after
Gray Mouse that saucy animal would get
himself caught In a trap and lough at the
cat. Gray Mouse and White Rabbit grew
Idgger and stronger every day. and they
could run so fast that the cat could never
calch them.

And of these the Arst Is Mr. Gilbert
Denholm, master of arta. acholar In the
ology to hit elnaa-fallowa more colloquial
ly nnd generally known aa "Glbby. lb-

At eolleg* we all loved Gilbert He was

ty to bring up. upon a stipend of surpris
ing tenuity So It behooved Gilbert to
keep himself at college by means of
scholarships and prlvato tuition. His pu
pils had a lively time.
But his only fault obvious to the world
wis u certain light-headed but wtneome
gayety and a tendency to Jokes of Un
practical kind I usrd often to restrain
hla ardor by telling him that It be did not
behave himself and walk more seemly he
would get hla bursary taken from him by
the senatus.
This would recall Gilbert to himself
w hen almost anything else had failed.
Tart of Gilbert s persnnsi equipment
was a little slimness of figure which gain
ed hint the name of "Glbby the Eel," and
which enabled him to practice many
amusing pranks In the class-room He
would have made an exceptionally line
burglar, for few holes were too small and
ro window too secure for Gilbert to make
Vs exits and entrances by. Without going
eo far as to say that he could wriggle
Mmtrlf through an ordinary keyhole. I
w 111 say that If anybody ever could it
was OHbgrt Denholm.
One of the moat ordinary of his habits
wts that of wandering here and there
throghoui the class-room during the hour
of lecture, presuming upon the profess
or's purblindness or lack of attention You
would he sitting calmly writing a letter,
drawing caricatures In your note-book or
otherwise Improving your mind with a
laudable Imitation of attention, when sud
denly out of the black and dusty depths
about your feet would arise the anpart

casually, inquire how you found yourself
this morning, and Inform you that he
cn!y dropped In on hla way up to bench
IT. to see IMlhaldle. who owed him a
shilling.
"Well, so long!" He would nod again
pleasantly, and sink Into the unknown
abyss beneath the benches as noiselessly
and aa unobtrusively as a smile fades
from a face.
Sometimes, however, when In wanton
mood, his progress Halhaldle-wards could
be guessed im by Ihe chain of "Oucha"
and • Oa" Which Indicated his subterran
ean career. The suddenness with which
(illliert could awaken a lively Interest In
a somnolent or Indtferent student by
means of a long brass pin In the calf of
the leg had to be felt to be appreciated
Thereupon ensued the sound of vigorous
kicking, hut generally by the time the
Injured got the range of his unseen foe.
Gilbert could be observed seated two or
three forms above, Intently studying a
Greek testament wrong side up. and look
ing the picture of meek Innocence.
In no clssa could Gilbert uee ao much
freedom In errancy a* In that of old Prof
Galbraith every afternoon. This fine old
gentleman undertook to direct our atudlea

ally. afforded his students an hour of un
disturbed repose after the labors of the
day. __
No one who ever studied under fHmon
Galbraith will forget that gentle dron

like < outitensnee. over whl h 'wo smaller
moons of beamy *pec;aolcs seemed to be
In perpetual ttandl. oral In especial that
blessed word. "Hermaneutle*," of which
(It Is said) there was onee one atudent
who could remember the meaning. He died
young, regretted by all who knew him.
Dreamily Ihe word came to you. sooth

And so on and on until th* collage be I
clanged In the quadrangle, and It was
time to (Ue out for a wash and brush-up
before dinner In th* hall.
Cpon on* afternoon every ek Prof
Galbraith r*d with his student* In the
"Greek Original." He prescribed half
a dozen chapter* of "Romans" of "He
brews." and ezpeced u* to prepare them
carefully I verily be!l*v* that he thought
w* did. Tbl* snows what a sanguln* sad
amiable old gent!#man h© wag. Hla
beamy spectacles belied him not.
The f*et was that we numbl#*! through
our portions by tfi * light of nature, aided
ocntder*b'y by a c'a** copy of an Inge

'H.K#ter.“ in which evt rv Greek war. I

up# of this was not considered wicked,
because, like the early Christian*. In Ibof

to the primitive church.
One day the do tor. peering over hi**

of bench 1 immediately beneath him.
