Uncomfortable Experience The members of the Imperial De­ gree Staff, London, will not soon forget their visit to .Otter Lodge, I.O.O.F., Tillsonburg. They were making their journey by motor bus, and all went well until about two miles north of Ostrander when the vehicles became stuck in the mud. Not being able to extricate them, the passengers resum­ ed their journey b foot and proceeded to Ostrander, where they were met by Tillsonburg motorists, and the rest of the journey was made in comfort. The condition of the shoes and cloth­ ing indicated that Dcreham mud was no rcspcctor of persons. One of the buses was extricated from the mire, and returned to London at the conclusion of the meeting, with a load of tired Oddfellows. The re­ mainder of the visitors had to remain all night, and were entertained at the hospitable home of Robert Anderson, sixth concession, for breakfast. The bus was liberated about ten o’clock, and the passengers were able to com­ mence their home ward journey.

There ii always a willingness to do what is-pos Bible to lighten the burden of theii affliction and to brighten their lives This is a commendable spirit as r gives evidence of man's regard foi those who are not so fortunate as hi is himself. There is alio behind it th« feeling that every child should have a chance in this world. It is unfortunate that, to the major ity of people, a crippled child is on< who is deformed or who has lost par of a limb. These make up only par of the group. The child who has i damaged heart or whose organs an deficient in any way is just as mucl a cripple as is the child whose bone: are twisted. It is rieht and just that suitable anc extra attention should be provided foi these crippled children. Because o their handicap, they need special can and guidance in their education. While this is true, our chief con­ cern should be to prevent any chile from becoming crippled and. as ; result, handicapped in life's venture. Ii is a fact that the condition of many ol hese children could have been prevent- el b.y care and proper treatment al the right time. Many damaged hearts result frow disease tonsils and teeth which an not properly and promptly treated Much permanent damage results iron such disease as scarlet-fever anc measles. If we wish to protect our Canadian children, then it is our responsibility tc su'‘t»ort the work -wf health depart­ ments and health organizations which seek to prevent the conditions thai cripple children; which bring to the attention of parents the need for early and proper treatment; and which seel to spread knowledge concerning pre­ vention.Questions concerning health ad­ dressed to the Canadian Medical As­ sociation.

A Brantford man recent*- was obliged to pay $20 for an attempt to avoid a few cents postage in this way. The follow- ot ing two clauses in the Postal Rcgula- ,H tions should furnish a warning to 'b< others who might wish to try the |A same scheme: jTa "No mutilated stamp can be accepted ha it. payment of postage, nor should any n. **>iled *tamp be used, as it is impo*- tri *il.le m many caves for the post office ch io distinguish a merely soiled stamp a« from one previously used and canccil- co rd. [th "To attempt to use any stamp that H- has previously served for payment of qu postage is by law made an offense pun- pc punishable by fine, and to remove marks g* of cancelation for for the purpose of de using such a stamp a second time is by co law an indictable offense, punishable ta by imprisonment for fire years. co Railway Workmen Warned Simcoe.

Grant of S1SMM Sentinel-Review. The road and bridge committee's j program of work for the year again came in for a good amount of discus-I sion at the closing session of the | county council on Thursday afternoon.' but was finally nassed without amend- . ment. x In opening the discussion Warden i Baxter, a* a member of the committee.' spoke at *ome length in explanation of1 ; the various items of the report. Of the ' 'item of $3,500 for superintendent**; > salary and expenses, he pointed out i that it had been necessary to have al , bookkeeper give part-time assistance ’ the work at a cost of *300 a year which ' 1 went in this total, also certain files and t other small items of office furniture, i He said that it was not the intention . to use all the $3500 if les* would suf-1 , lice, in which case there would be a: ■ balance available for some other work.! • "The question was brought up the I> other day as to whether we had ex-1 . ceded our authority.” continued War- | J den Baxter, speaking of the machinery ' purchased "We arc not going to deny ‘jtt. but fed we did rifht under the cir- - cuinstancc*. We have been getting . criticized strongly on our road main­ tenance here in the country and felt that something should be done. Accepts Responsibility , "We took up the question of a power |' maintainer and were boieged with agents. We laid over the matter and ’Ithe next meeting they were all back; Hand more with them, so that it was :; up to u* to decide or pass the buck to I > ou. We didn’t pa»» the buck but took the rc»jx>n*ibility ourselves and settled it. If it doesn't prove Satisfactory.1 ’ the members of the committee will I ' take the blame. If it is successful. , though, come back and be a* generous ■ in telling us we were right a* you would be with your blame if we were ■ wrong. It was not any desire on our ; : part to exceed our authority." The warden went on to state that ( this power maintainer would not take care of all. or nearly all the roads of ‘the county but was more in the nature i of an cx|>eriment. the pre*ent system ijof patrol maintenance having fallen (I down badly in the past. The main- itainer will be used over certain roads and the results recorded so that com- | parisons will be available. Purchase of Gravel Pit* Speaking of the item of $5XKD for the purchase of gravel pit*, the ward­ en said that nothing had been decided I on this. There were gravel pit* available that might be suitable for ( jthc county's road work and the com- ( I mittcc had felt that money might be | .saved by purchasing one or more. < They wanted to feel that if they de- l cided that such purchase* were pre- - ; ferablc to buying gravel, that the money was on hand to make the pur- a | date* with. • Dealing with the criticism that had ' - been given the committee's proposals t for |K-rmancnt wofle. he expressed the | opinion that the work proj»oscd j should be done. Speaking of the road* £ Marti d which some felt should be j ‘continued, he said that there wen t part, of those roads that would no: , need to be done for year. yet. It had , '.seen said that it was doubtful whctli-1 er the government would sanction the!;, buildir.g for the little strips proposed ! v He doubted it himself but doubted j. just a* much whether they would'tl «a net ion work on the other road* | f. . mentioned, as the government asked ,. .that all permanent work be prepared {for the year preceding actual work, fo However, in the case of the strips p i through the villages, the warden felt p I that the de|>artmcnt would accept the a [view that this work should be done as H j soon as possible. fc In concluding, the warden advised I future council* to try to keep at least lone member of the old roads commit­ tee on the new committee, or to have the retiring committee prepare a re­ port in the late fall, so that the new committee would have something to v go by. He pointed out the dilficutly t, under which the present committee , had worked, having nothing from last n year as guidance.

T’l*B?**^*lce* IT and 101 Thursday, March 29th Dirty Eggs a Trade Handica] That one of the most aggravatin] problem* confronting the egg trade a the present time is the far too frequen marketing of dirty egg*, is the opinioi of Mr. W. A. Brown, chief of the Pou! try Division of the Dominion Livi Stock Branch. Farmers should realize state* Mr. Brown, that they can d. much towards improving the egg in dustry by taking step* to prevent thi production and marketing of dirty egg: and by discontinuing the very undesir­ able practice of washing eggs befort marketing. Under any circumstances, it is in­ evitable that a few slightly dirty 01 stained eggs will appear. But the far­ mer who consistently produces anc markets large number* of dirty egg< surely does not realize the bad effee' of thi* practice on hi* market. Thesd egg* arc unpopular with consumers anc in many cities it is almoit impo*»ib!e tc sell them at any price. Washed egg< are even more dangerous to the poultry industry than dirty ones. Washing de- >troy* the natural protective bloom o: the egg shell and. the shell being damp mould spores often enter, causing thr egg to become unfit for food. At the same time it is no: difficult tc prevent :he production of dirty eggs What i. needed is an abundance ol clean, dry litter on the floor, plenty oi nest*.about one to every six hens, clear straw in the nests, and frequent gath­ ering of the eggs. Sense and Speed (Barrie Examiner) It has been rather well established that laws which arbitrarily fix speed limit* for automobile* are little pro­ tection against accidents. The speed at which one may safely drive depends upon the road and traffic conditions in­ volved. \ high executive of one of the lead­ ing automobile manufacturing com- panic. who has made a clo*e »tudy of •peed in its relation to accidents de- lare» that fifty or ev<yi »ixty miles an liotir over good open roads in the ountry may be safer than fifteen mile* *n hour in cutting corner* in town. The safe driver is not necessarily the driver, but one who use* common >en*c whether driving fast or slow, -arelt-s driving while turning corner*. ■a*«ing {>cdc*irian> and other cars. :ros>ing railroad tracks and maneuver­ ing in congested traffic is the greatest menace to life and limb. Sense, not speed, is the important factor in determining whether a driver is sate or unsafe. • Editorial Note* The weather i» fine overhead these lay*, but there arc few travelling that tvay.

Do you realize that if the total of your estate amounted to $10,00000, that this amount of money invested at six sixty-four cents per day to educate the children, pay rent, purchase fuel, food, clothing, light, pay doctor and dentist bill*, to-say nothing of the little lux­ uries that they are accustomed to. If you find it hard to keep the home fires burning on your salary or income, which is no doubt more than one dollar and sixty-four cents, bow do you ex­ pect your good wife to carry on after you are gone, on thi* small amount of money? Think it over. We have a plan whereby you cat leave your family well cared foe, simply by paying the interest on the amount of money you feel your family can live on.

New Occasions (Paper read by Mrs. John Hoag at the recent meeting of the Culloden W.M.S.) Most of us have heard the doctrine that "New occasions leach new duties." If we ever questioned the truth of that dictum, living in the world today would dispel every lingering doubt. For in this changed and ever changing world new situations arise overnight and old situations require new treatment. New visions, new statesmanship, new meth­ od* arc everywhere demanded. No­ where is this more true than in lhe Christian mis: ions. The outstanding problem is how to relate the Christian Missionary movement to the changed conditions. The purpose of mission* i» the same as it was a century ago. but to attain that purpose we must face the world as it is today, seeing clearly how different it is now from the world of eyen a few years ago. Every good physician diagnoses his patient's condition and treats the patient to meet changing needs, so every organization or movement which would be effective in the world today must give fresh and fearless study to the new circumstances and relation­ ships of today and make its plans in the light of the necessities. Now what arc some of the new cir­ cumstances of which the missionary movement must take special account First: That contraction of the world which it make* it seem smaller and more interdependent than nation* used to be. The world ha* shrunk as it were and it is impossible to escape from the fact that we are all tied up together, interdependent upon each other. For if the workers in one country are in misery the masses in other countries will Suffer also. For example, where the people of India began to wear cotton cloth produced by their own mills and hand looms instead of that made in Britain, it caused the unem- plovmcnt of thousand* of men in Eng­ land. who had to be aided by unem­ployment insurance, the cost of which had to be borne by industry in general which was one of the chief reasons for the rise in the cost of production in England, which resulted in the frequent inability of England to com­ pete with other nations, which has greatly lessoned the ability of the British people to pay for American wheat and other supplies from the United States, which in turn has had a profound effect u;>on American fanners and American politics. Many other illustrations could be cited. So it i* quite evident that it is very diffi­ cult to do anything anywhere that doc* not make some kind of difference to everyone everywhere else. The meals we eat, the clothes we wear, the news item* we read daily remind u» of what an interdependent world we are. The second thing the missionary movement must take account of is as Mr. E Stanley Jones has put it "a whispering gallery,” and that all of us arc listening in on all the rest of us. There is several reasons for this. One is that all the world is learn­ ing to read. Another is that al­ most all the world is going to the mov­ ies and even the radio is becoming a factor in international and race rela­ tions and again all the world is going travelling nowadays. Journeys across oceans and across continents arc noth­ ing to what they were even a few years ago. World acquaintance jour­ neys. international friendship tours, floating universities, commissions visit­ ing East from West and West from East. Students visiting other lands, exchanging schools with our teachers —through all these channels the people of foreign lands arc acquainting thcmselve* with us.In the days gone by they knew little about us except through the mission­ aries. What they taught was our message. But now they know a great deal about us before the missionary goes to them and have judged us from what they have read in their news­ papers and magazines, what they see in the movies, and hear over the radio, also from what their students coming home from our land tell them, so that our entire national life and our whole civilization is our message today. By it as much as our missionaries words and works is Christianity judg­ ed. We cannot expect people of now Christian lands to be convinced of the power of Christianity unless they sec evidence of it in countries which claim to be Christian. So the great hindrance to foreign missions is in ourselvc*.. Many visitor* to other lands come back burdened with the handicap to missions created by the unchristian aspects of the life of Christian people*. Such question* as these arc being asked by earnest thoughtful men of non-christian lands. "You ask us to be Christians, may we ask how Christian is your civiliza­ tion?” "Don't you lynch negroes in America?" "How is it divorces are a part of the Christianity of the West?” Docs not the war—a war among followers of Christ prove that there i» something wrong with the teachings of Christ?" " If the so-call­ ed Chri*tian Nations fail to follow Jesus, if they fail to do away with un­ christian practices. Africa will be forc­ ed to ally herself with Mohammedan followers, for Mohammedan* value the spirit of brotherhood." To each generation has been givn its own special task. Each ha* it* own occasion* and duties. During the gen­ eration of the past the message of the Gospel has pentetrated one part of the world after another, carried by fear­ less follower* of Jesus Christ, willing to lose their live* that they might find them in sharing with other* the good news. History is tarted by the stories of thc*e people and they hold out to us the torch, calling us to be pioneers also. But their difficulties were not our difficulties and their methods cannot be our methods, though the task at heart i* the same. The condition* brought about by modern life and the great development in the industrial world present one set of problems. The question* of race greatly complicated by the ever chang­ ing world to which we have referred presents another problem that calls into being probably more preju­ dice and bitterness than any other and again the vast problem of international relationship form another serious pro­ blem.. And now when we thought lhe days of pioneering were over comes a new call. Our generation is the one chosen for another high adventure along the unkown frontier for Christ­ ian effort and a new challenge goe* out to young and old to work out the principles of lesu* Christ in thi* world. In seeking to adapt our missionary effort to the day in which we live, we must keep in mind that the needs of human heart arc lhe same. There is (Continued on page 8) CHRYSLER.

March 12. having crossed the Atlantic from Greenock. Scot­ land. on the Canadian Pacific liner S.S -Montcalm-. On the centenary of Jules Verne's birth, a leading Danish newspaper, the "Polltlken”, con­ ceived the original Idea of send­ ing a representative around the ■world on the regular travelling schedule of 46 days, so as to make apparent the differences of travel of 1173 and 1928. To that end a new Phlneas Fogg was required, and the editor of the newspaper decided that tt should be a boy of between 15 and 18 years of age. A full page advertisement was placed in local papers, and young Huld was chosen The same day as the advertisement appeared—at two o'clock, as ap-. pointed, the stairs, offices, and private rooms of the “Polltlken" building was swarmlug with boys who wanted to go round thc world It was som* scene, and tt was soon seen that It was not even necessary to get a youth of eighteen years, there were boys of sixteen who -would do quite as well, and finally the fifteen-year- old boys proved as capable as the others. A correspondent just re­ turned from China and the revo­ lution there, examined the boys one after the other. They all had a thorough examination, their permission from their parents in their hands they stammered out their wild desire to get the ex­ citing chance—and finally five boys were selected. Out of the five two proved the best. They were Palle Huld and Halfden Burresen. They were both equal­ ly fitted for the Journey, every­ thing Justifying their setting off. As no one liked, however, to rob the other of bls cbancc a new idea was hit upon. They must Who la he. then ?

He got permission from his manager to leave the business, where he is an apprentice, for two months, and after the lucky result, rushed to his mother: “Mother, do you know. 1 am to go round the world!" He left Copenhagen on Thurs­ day. the first of March, and he expected to be back, m be has promised, in 46 days. Palle Huld sailed from Green­ ock.

MEDITATION Mark 15:46: "And laid him sepulchre" The bodies of the crucified were usually disposed of with scant re­ gard. With few exceptions they were buried amongst the refuse of the city in the Valley of Hinnon. Not so with Jesus. He was alone in Hi* suffering. in but many friends wept at Hi* .grave, and vied with one another in doing honour to the precious dust. They found comfort and blessing in their ministry* to the dead, and so many we. But their chief reward came in another way. Those men and women laced the certainty of having to lie down in grave themselves some day, and how differently they regarded this prospect after Jesus had hallowed the grave by Hi* presence. No longer was it an object of fear, but of hope. The grave of Jesus emancipated them from the fear of death. In the Provi­ dence of God thi* hateful thing be­ came one of the "all things" that work­ ed together for good. The sepulchre of Jesus became the tomb of their tins, tbeir terrors, and their despair. At the time they laid Jesus in the sepul­ chre, no doubht they thought that they were writing thc last chapter of Hi* career. Before long they knew it as the first chapter in an eternal story glorious beyond compare. And it is our* to share in their experience.

J. CARRUTHERS. raarcn mn, I Lady Hutton’s Ward By Charlotte M. Braeme CHAPTER VIII The Drawing-room was a brilliant one. Lady Hutton's Ward was greatly admired. No such beatuiful girl had been seen for some time; it was a new style, every one declared; there was something so fresh and fair, so inno­ cent and graceful about her. Even the brilliant Countess of Bayneham was pleased. "She is perfect in her way," said that lady to her niece, "but her face is not developed; and unless I am greatly mistaken, it will attain much rarer beauty yet." Lady Morton, the wife of one of the leading ministers, gave a grand ball on the evening of the day on which .the Drawing-room was held. Lord Bayne­ ham, with his mother and cousin, was to be present It was arranged for Bertie Carlyon ,to dine at Grosvenor Square and accompany them to Lady Morton's. They were late, the rooms were full, and every one seemed to be talking about the same thing, the delicate beauty and rare grace of Lady Hut­ ton’s ward. “Claude.” said Bertie to Lord Bayne- hamham, " you must procure an intro­ duction to Miss Hutton, the new beauty. Let us go into the ball-room; she is dancing. 1 think, with Sir Harry Poyntz; I want you to see her.” The young carl had' not paid much attention to what his friend was say­ ing; all beauties were indifferent alike to him. They went through the long suite of brilliantly crowded rooms. At the furthercst end of one stood a young girl in earnest conversation with an elderly gentleman, the celebrated painter whose pictures had taken the world by storm. His eyes, expressive of deep admiration, were bent upon her. She was well worthty of the artist's praise. It is seldom that in a London ball-room a face so pure and lovely can be seen, a face on which the world did not seem to have breathed, calm and unruffled in its sweet inno­ cence and childlike grace; violet eyes, so clear and pure and full of truth; bright, shining golden hair, that fell in rich waves over shoulders while and shapely; a slender, graceful figure, full of dignity; round white arms, per­ fect in color and contour. She wore a dress of costly white lace, and a suite of pearls that a princess might envy. “See," said Bertie Carlyon, quietly, "that is Miss Hutton. What do you think of her. Claude?" Lord Bayneham made no reply. His face became white, and his dark eyes grew darker still. The beautiful girl before him was the one who had haunted him day and night since he had met her on that May morning in the woods at Brynmar.“What do you think of her?" asked Berrtie, impatiently. “I have seen her before.” replied Lord Bayneham, in a low, constrained voice; “she is very beautiful” Bertie Carlyon looked wondcringly at hi* friend's face.“I must have an introduction to her,” said Claude.Just at that moment they saw the Countess of Bayneham conversing with Lady Hutton. The young carl hastened toward them. His mother introduced him to Lady Hutton, who was more gracious than usual to the handsome young man who saluted her so reverentially. What he had longed for came at last. While he was talking to Lady Hutton, Mr. Seaton, the artist, return­ ed with the fair young girl, and l-ady Hutton introduced Claude to her. He had no need to ask if he was for­ gotten, for a deep burning blush cover­ ed the beautiful face, and the sweet eyes drooped, lest Tie should sec the love-light in them. Lady Hutton turn­ ed away with Mr. Seton, and they werc left together. “1 never dreamed of seeing you again.” said Lord Bayneham; "i am bewildered.” "Y ou had not forgotten me?” she asked; and a new light came upon the lovely face. Claude dared not trust himself to speak. A whole torrent of burning words rose to his lips, but he would not utter them. After some minutes he said, gently, "I do not think it very possible for one to forget you. Miss Hutton. Tell me how Brynemar woods arc looking. Arc they bonny as ever?"”1 was sorry to leave them, she replied. ”1 would rather be there than in London; here it seems to me all gaslight.”"Did you never find it dull at Bryn­ mar?" he asked, smiling at her naive simplicity.“No,” she replied looking at him in sheer, wonder, “never ; sometimes I feel dull in London. It. is like a new world to me." It was like a new world to Lord Bayneham; he forgot everything ex­ cept that he had found her again; that he was looking at her radiant face, listening to her voice, watching the blushes that came and went with al­ most every word. He offered her his arm almost mechanically; she took it, and they wandered through lhe rooms, forgetful of everything in the wide world except each other. Miss Hutton had promised Captain Massey lhe next dance, but she never remembered it until it was ended, and the gallant captain, looking very much hurt and annoyed, stood before her. Then a sense of her broken promise came over her. “I have been looking everywhere for you, Miss Hutton,” said the captain. "You had promised me this dance." She apologized* so sweetly and gracefully that Captain Massey could not be angry, and Lord Bayneham felt something like a thrill of guilty satis­ faction that she had forgotten some one else to talk to him. They pdssed on quickly; but on en­ tering the room that seemed to be re­ served for conversation and flirtation they met Barbara Earle and Lady Bayneham.Claude never looked at his cousin's face, or he would have seen upon it first an expression of unqualified sur­ prise, then a wistful look of something like despair. In the excitement o this happiness he forgot that Barbara had seen the treasured picture, and would recognize his companion's beautiful face.Lady Bayneham spoke to Miss Hut- on. and then introduced Barbara Earle o her. Barbara said some few court­ eous words, but the very tone of her w ice seemd changed as she did so. Ah, this was his secret. He had seen Miss Hutton before; and her face had charmed him so much that he had painted it. _ How every feature must lave dwelt in his memory; Where and ow could he have met her? She was very lovely, and a sharp pang shot through Barbara’s heart as she noted he graceful and perfect of that deli­ cate beauty; but a still sharper pain struck her as she saw her cousins changed face; and it had never lighted up so for her. He had never looked at her as he did at Miss Hutton, and she was his promised wife. Just then another gentleman came to claim Miss Hutton's hand, and Barbara Earle was left with Lord Bayneham. He seemed to awake front a bewildering dream. His eyes follow­ ed every movement of her figure. He watched her until she had passed from his sight, then he turned with a profound sigh to Barbara. His short, bright dream was ended. The plain, cold, hard reality was before him;, of what avail, if he had found her again? What could it matter? What it she had given him her sweetest smiles and kindest words? What if she had re­ membered him as vividly and as truly as he had-thought of her? It was all of no avail. He belonged to another His promised wife stocxl there before him. looking with sad wistful eyes in his face.“Claude." she said, gently, "you have AutoStrop Razors, Strops and Blades^ — E. F. DAVIS CO JEWELERS SINCE 1BS3 met Miss Hutton before to-night, have you not?" "Only once," he replied; then there flashed across him the remembrance of that picture which Barbara Earle had seen and admired. He grew con­ fused and embarrassed; she looked on quietly and calmly. “I saw her under such peculiar circumstances,” he add­ ed, feeling that some explanation was due, “in such a picturesque spot, and with such beautiful surroundings, that I made a little sketch of the scene. You saw it, Barbara?" “Yes, 1 saw it,” she replied; " and it was a good painting. How well you remebered the face, Claude, if you only saw it once I" Barbara could not help that little bit of malice. “It is one not easily forgotten." he replied coldly. “Arc you engaged, Barbara, for the next waltz—may I have the pleasure?" Not one word more did the cousins exchange on the subject. I-ater on that evening Barbara Earle sought Miss Hutton. She wanted to sec more of her, to know what was hidden under that lovely face; and she found her by Lady Hutton’s side. “Have you seen those rare japonicas, Miss Hutton?" she asked, "they arc in the long drawing-room; Lady Morton is very proud of them. If you arc fond of flowers they will please you." “I like flowers almost belter than anything else in the world," replied Hilda; "they have been my com­ panions at Brynmar. I shall be so glad to see them." “You are not unlike one yourself," thought Barbara Earle. “I wonder what is it you like better.” The two girls walked down the ball­ room together. They reached the stand on which the japonicas were placed, and Hilda bent her beautiful face over them. The room was nearly empty; Captain Massey and Mr. Sea­ ton were at the other end. They stood watching the young girls bending over the flowers. There could not have been a greater contrast—Hilda so bright and radiant, with shining gold­ en hair and rich white dress; Barbara Earle, dark and stately, a noble soul shining through her eloquent face, giving it a beauty all its own. "That would not make a bad picture," said Captain Massey to the artist; "what title should you give it?" “I hardly know," said the artist, musingly. "Miss Earle is my highest ideal of a beautiful, noble woman. Miss Hutton is the truest type of a lovely girl. I could not say to which I could accord the palm. I could not choose between them." Lord Bayneham joined them at that moment, and overheard the last few words, and felt that they were true. He saw the woman he loved, and the woman who loved him; but for him there was no choice. Fate, honor,'and truth, bound him to one, while his heart and love lay at the feet of the other. CHAPTER IX Lord Baynham inherited the courage of his ancestors; he said to himself that his love was a danger he must fly from and, cost him what it might, be kept his resolution. Whenever he heard that Lady Hutton and her beau­ tiful ward were to be present at a ball, party or fete, there he refused to go. He would not again voluntarily meet the young girl who was never for a moment out of his mind. He could not help his love; but he would not indulge it weakly, at the price of his honor. Barbara Earle was his -promised wife, and he would be true to her, try­ ing his best to forget the fair young girl whom he loved better far than life itself. What matter if his life were cold and dreary? Others had to suffer— why not he? Better any suffering than to fail in honorbetter death itself than to be untrue. His love tortured him; he could never forget it; that face was ever be­ fore him: the low sweet voice never ceased sounding in his ears. But Claude Bayneham was a brave man; he could die, but never yield. The sharper the pain, the greater the struggle, the more firm were his re­ solves. He became an altered man. He failed in no duty or kindness, but he looked like one whose life had lost its charm. He was not sad or mel­ ancholy, never listless or moody, but there was that in his face which told the whole story. Barbara Earle saw it. and Lady Bayneham thought all was not well with her son. Barbara watched him silently for days and weeks, until she became puzzled herself. The name of Lady Hutton’s ward never crossed his lips. Once or twice she purposely men­ tioned a party or ball which Miss Hut­ ton was to attend, but he showed no anxiety to be there.. Several times the “new beauty" had been discussed in his presence, but he made no sign. Barbara Earle was puzzled, and half thought there was nothing in it but a collection of her owq jealous whim; and fancies. So a month of the brilliant London season passed, and never once did Lord Bayneham himself even to look upon the fair young face he loved so well. Hilda could not understand it. She knew nothing of the. engagement between the carl and his cousin. It had never been mentioned in her presence, and she wondered, until wonder became pain, why he did not call upon her or did not try to see her. She had never forgotten him. dreamed of him, and loved him; that one morn­ ing had colored her life; she had re­ membered him, thought of him, dreamed of him, and loved him, but she had never hoped to meet . him again. When he suddenly stood before her that night at Lady Morton’s ball her heart almost stood stilt Then he had spoken to her, and gazed so long and earnestly at her, had seemBd so utterly and entirely happy, that she thought he cared a great deal for her. And now it was four weeks since, and he had never once sought her. Hilda could not understand. Every morning she awoke hoping she should sec him during the day; and every day brought its own bitter disappointments. In the meantime, as Lady Hutton had foreseen, lovers in plenty surround­ ed the beautiful young heiress. There was no one more popular, or more ad­ mired. "The beautiful Miss Hutton" was declared to be the belle of the season; but flattery, homage, and admiration brought no pleasure to her. She would have exchanged all for one word from Lord Bayneham. There was a grand fete at lhe Botanical Gardens, and Miss Earle . wished to attend. It was arranged that Lord Bayneham should escort both ladies. It was a beautiful day in the beginning of July. The sky was cloudless, the air soft and balmy. The gardens were magnificent the flowers in full perfection, the show of the roses were superb, and crowds of splendidly dressed ladies • surrounded As Lord Bayneham walked slowly down one of the more retired paths, following Barbara and the countess at a little distance, the whole party suddenly met Lady Hutton and Hilda. They were surrounded by ouite a little court of admirers. Captain Massey, hoplessly in love, and Mr. Seaton, who never neglected an opportunity of studying Hilda’s face. There was a murmur of polite greeting, a dispersion of the group of admirers! then Lord Bayneham found himself, he hardly knew how, by Hilda's side. His heart beat almost painfully; he spoke a few confused words, and those without looking at her. The path was narrow, and the countess said, naif impatiently, “W. cannot all remain together. I am going to see the roses. Claude, you wanted to look at the geraniums; they are over there. Perhaps Miss “ Hutton would like to sec them." In less than three minutes after her ladyship's little speech. Barbara Earle found herself with Captain Massey. The two elder ladies enjoyed a half confidential talk over the roses, and Lord Bayneham and Hilda were left behind with the geraniums. She bent over them, but he made no pretense of even looking at a flower. His lips grew white, and he would have flown from the danger, but could not. "Are you not well, Lord Bayne­ ham?" asked Hilda, looking up into his still face. “Yes," he replied, "I am quite well." Then a dreary silence fell upon them; all kinds of wild thoughts rush­ ed through Hilda's mind. She tried to think if it were possible she could have offended him. Was this stern, silent man the same who had lingered by her side in Brynmar woods, and seemed to live in her smiles on the night of the ball? What could have brought about so great a change? "Shall wc follow Lady Hutton?" she said, at length. He bowed assent: but. as good or bad fortune would have it. they took the wrong turning, and instead of re­ joining their companions found them­ selves quite alone in a broad, shady path. "You will be pleased to see so many beautiful flowers," said Lord Bayne­ ham, feeling that he must break the silence, which had grown painful. Hilda looked up at him; their eyes met, and he saw tears shining in hers. Then he saw too that her beautiful face had lost some of its bloom, and that she looked sad and sorrowful. “You have never been to sec us. Lord Bayneham,” she said, in answer to his look, for he said no more. "I half expected you, for you seemed like an old friend." There was a tone of reproach in her words. He could not withstand the lovely innocent face and quivering lips. He dared not ask himself if she had missed him, and why. "London is un­ like every other place." continued the young girl in her low, plaintive voice; "every one talks alike; it is all flattery and compliment; very few seem really to care for each other.” She little dr amed, poor child, how much of her own heart she was re­ vealing. "How4 do people talk at Brynmar? he asked, with a smile. "It is different there” said Hilda, earnestly. "People are simple and true. Here all seems to me artificial and unreal; it is like one long play that never comes to an end.” They came to the end of the path, and before them they saw the wonder­ ful roses, round with which their com­ panions stood admiringly. "Even you, Lord Bayneham," said Hilda, "were different at Brynmar. There you talked to me. but in London you have forgotten me." She never forgot the startled look he bent upon her. ”Hush, Miss Hutton," he said, "you torture me. You ask me why I do not visit you. I will tell you. I never seek you bcause I am pledged to marry Barbara Earle.” He saw the lovely face grow pale and death like, the dark, violet eyes became shaded and dim, the sweet lips quiver and then grew strangely slilL He saw all this and would have given his whole life for the power to have uttered one word; but honor badc him be silent."Hilda," he said, gently, “in years to come you will perhaps realize what it has cost me to tell you this. I never thought much of my future or my fate, until I met vou in the woods of Bryn­ mar. it was all settled then.” She tried to say she wished him al) happiness, but her trembling Bps could inter no word. He saw Lady Hutton and Barbara Earle coming toward them. Lady Hutton was utterly unobserv­ ant, but Barbara Earle’s dark eyes saw strange pallor upon the beautiful young face—saw that some keen sharp pain had taken all brightness and happiness away. She saw, and her noble, womanly heart pitied the fair girl, and wondered what her sorrow could be. “Hilda," said Lady Hutton “arc you tired?—if not. Lady Bayneham has asked us to dine with them. She is going to the opera, and wc can form one party. What do you say. my dear?”Hilda’s said something, but the words were so faint and indistinct that l-ady Hutton did not hear them. Just then she caught sight of the girl's white face, and uttered a cry of sur­ prise. "What is the matter, Hilda?" she asked, hurriedly; “you look quite ill." Barbara Earle whose keen instinct told her there was something wrong, interposed."You have been stooping over the flowers. Miss Hutton.” she said; “the perfume and warmth together have been too much for you." Lord Bayneham looked gratefully at his cousin. "I will see about the carriage at once, if you like." .he said to Lady Hutton. "I am sure my mother will be quife ready to return." Barbara Earle walked by Hilda’s side, and talked gayly to her until ike faint color came again into the fair face, and the startled, frightened look vanished from the sweet, tender eyes. “I am glad you are going to dine with us." she jaid. "Lady Hutton has been telling us how beautfully you sing. If you feel better will you give us the pleasure of hearing your voice?" "I shall be very glad to do anything you will like,” said Hilda. “You are very kind." “Have you enjoyed the afternoon?" asked Barbara. “Do you like the gardens?" “No,” said Hilda, decisively. "I would sooner have Brynmar woods than all the grand gardens and parks in England put together." Barbara Earle could have smiled at the girl’s simplictiy, had she not guessed why she loved Brynmar so well (To be continued) "SALADA" Dark-skinned natives—glowing sunlight—cool mountain tops—great ships ploughing through tropic seas—these things all come to mind when a cup of “SALADA” is steaming before you.

PEARCE & SON Life Itself Is Not Short, But We Ourselves Shorten It (b- Barbara B. Brooks) The title of this article was taken from a bulletin published by a Depart­ ment of public health. The author says that man has always lamented the fact that his existence on earth is too short and at the same time has neglected the fundamental health principals which will help him to reach his goal. It is not of so muclr import­ ance to lengthen life as not to cut it short. Among thc things which tend to shorten life are lax methods of bringing up children, impure air. poorly select­ ed food and excesses of any kind. In­ telligence as to sleep, food, recreation and personal hygiene helps to insure thc normal span of life. Many families in comfortable cir­ cumstances get sufficient sleep, play and observe a high degree of cleanli­ ness but are negligent where food is concerned. It is not easy to instill good food habits into children and if they are not founded during thc early years, they are apt never to be acquir­ ed. There are several things to consider about our everyday menus. If these rules are observed an adequate diet will ’be assured. Cereals. Milk—a quart for each child, * for each adult. Fruit. Dark bread—bran muffins, graham, whole wheat. 5. Two vegetables or more, one raw if possible. 6 Eggs, meat of fish. 7 Do not eat too much of any one food. Below are several recipes which are wholesome and which will aid in fur­ nishing regulating material which is so essential to health! Bru Not Bread— / cup sugar, I egg. 1 tbsp, butter (melted), y> cup milk, V/i cups flour, 2 tsps, baking powder. % tsp salt, yt cup all bran. y> cup chopped walnuts. Mix and sift Hour, salt, baking powder. Beat eggs and sugar until light, add milk to which melted butter has been added alternately with dry ingredients. Beat well, then stir in bran and nuts. Fill greased bread pan ii full, and bake in 350 degree oven about 43 minutes. Bran PwUiag—2 eggs, 2 cups All­ bran, 2 cups sweat milk, I cup sugar, 1 tablespoon butter, 1 cup seeded raisins. Soak the All-bran in the milk. Beat eggs and sugar, then add butter, bran, milk and raisins. Bake in a moderate oven about twenty minutes until firm.
