Cards, Mottoes ad Gifts for Mother on May 13th.—The E. F. Davis Co. tingly observed by Otter Lodge, No. 50, I.O.O.F., on Sunday last, when they attended divine service at St. Johns Anglican church. Invitationts had been sent out to the neighboring Lodges, and each was well represented, visit­ ing brethem being present from Port Burwell. Delhi, Norwich, Otterville and Culloden. The members formed in line at the lodge room and marched in the body, several members of Myrtle Rebekah Lodge, No. 177 being among the number, the centre pews of the church being completely filled. The preacher was Rev. W. H. Dun­ bar. rector of St. Johns church, who delivered a most appropriate sermon on The Three Links of Oddfellow­ ship, Friendship. Love and Truth. In the course of his sermon Mr. Dunbar said: "The three links of Odd Fellowship, friendship, love and truth, is a com­ prehensive subject. Friends, according to the original sense of the Hebrew word arc those who delight in one another's companionship. Either they arc useful to one another because each possesses gifts which the other jhas not or they arc agreeable to one j another because they have certain tastes in common. Thus there may be a friendship of evil. Generally friend­ ship implies a certain amount of good­ ness; for it is in itself a virtue and it is for this virturc that the first link of the order stands. It was Bacon who said. ‘Sorrows, by being communicated grow less and joys greater.' Such a friendship we all covet and may acquire. “Love is the crowning grace of all. '' The Christian dispensation brought with it the full manifestation of the love of God. A new answer, too. has been given to the question: 'Who is my neighbor?' in the story, which is one of’the most beautiful in the sacred literature. /‘Perhaps you have seen these way­ side ministries of the good Samaritan exemplified and impressed upon your mind. "Concerning the third link, truth. Truth is taken for what is opposed to falsehood or deceit. Truth is taken for fidelity and sincerity. Truth is put for the substance of the types and cere­ monies of the law. The law was giv­ en by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. The three links of Odd Fellowship should therefore continually bring before us the holy character and sacrificial life of Jesus, for Jesus is the embodiment of that which the three links stand for. After the service the members again formed in parade and marched back to the lodgcrooms where the visiting brethren were welcomed by the local members after which Deputy Grand Master Bro. A. S. Rennie, gave an eloquent address to the members, I bringing their attention again to the truths pointed out by the rector in his sermon and emphasizing the great work and mission of Odd Fellowship throughout the world.

The committee was also assured that the township of West Oxford would give their aid in the matter. A date is being arranged for a conference with the Minister of Highways, when a large deputation will be present from the points inter­ ested.

Argument The village, enjoying a holiday, is sthrtled by the arrival of a party of .American tourists, college students under the leadership of Professor Me- Spindle, a tutor in botany, to study tulip culture. Two of the party, Ned. and Dick, arc much more interested in Christina and her friend, Katinka. News reaches the village htat a thief has been stealing choice bulbs of prize tulips, and a handbill describes the thief and offers a reward for his cap­ ture. Ned. and Dick induce McSpindle to wear certain clothing, answering the description of the tulip thief, when the Burgomaster beholds McSpindle so attired he causes his arrest. With McSpindle out of the way, Ned. and Dick promote their friendship with the girls, and learn that Christina's stock is unknown to her. of immense value. They reveal the truth to her and thwart the Burgomaster's attempt to grow rich at her expense.

Safety Talk to Children On Wednesday afternoon Mr. P. B. LaTrobe, representing the Ontario Saftety League, paid a visit to Tillson­ burg and gave an interesting and in­ structive talk on Traffic Safety, illus- traded by motion pictures and lantern slides, in the White Star Theatre, which had been kindly placed at the dispos­ al of the League for the occasion. Mr. LaTrobc’s talk was preceded by some practical remarks by Chief Carter, who briefly contrasted the difference in street traffic that had taken place during the past few years. In early days the streets were comparatively safe for children to play on, when motor car* were unknown, and vehicu­ lar traffic was light. Today the prac­ tice was positively dangerous, and when he prohibited the playing of ball and other games on the streets he assured the boy* and girls that it was not because he did not like to see them playing but for their own safety. He pointed out some of the more dangerous practices that are some­ times indulged in by thoughtless boy* and girls. The first was that of coast­ ing down the incline at the overhead bridge. Motorists coming from the op­ posite side could not sec them, and an accident was almost sure to take place when this practice was indulged in. An­ other dangerous practice was for two persons to ride on the one bicycle. The boy riding on the handle bars obscured the vision of the boy who was guid­ ing the machine, and when critical situations arose the latter was unable to see the road, and an accident was almost inevitable. Another danger pointed nut was when in crossing the street a car was seen approaching and ; the boy or girl turned back, thereby confusing the motorist. Standing still is the safest plan, and then the motorist could avoid an accident. Mr. LaTrobe teaches the children to obey traffic signal lights and to cross busy streets only by the lights indicated. The dangers of “hooking on" to cars and wagons are stressed and dire warnings issued against running out into the streets from be­ tween parked cars, jay walking and riding “two on a bike." Lantern slide*, motion pictures and community sing- ing are used to supplement his little talk*.The theatre was filled to overflow­ ing. with the children of the\public school, who attended in a body, under the guidance of their teachers, and they paid remarkably close attention to the remarks of the lecturer, and joined heartily in the songs that were interspersed. During 1927 the League gave Safety talks and showed motion pictures to the schools of some seventy-four cities, towns and villages thoughout the prov­ ince. and were delighted to find at the end of the year that in spite of a large increase of automobile fatalities, thirteen less children. (16 years of age and under) were killed, in compari­ son with 1926.

In their ear­ liest days, health departments were oc- cuiiicd in cleaning up the towns and cities liccausc it was believed that dis­ ease was bred in dirt.We have learned that there is a great difference in the various kinds of dirt. The only dkt which is dangerous is that which is contaminated by secre­ tions of the human or animal body. The reason for thi* is that the body secretions carry away from the body the dcscase germs which may be pres­ ent in it. Tin cans arc unsightly, but lilt cans arc not in themselves going lo cause disease. Potatoes or apples, in rotting, give off an offensive smell but bad I smells do not cause any disease. The clean person, the one who cov- ersfhis coughs and sneezes with a hand- | kerchief, who keeps flies out of hi* home, who washes his hand* before he» cat*, is not going to live in a dirty, un­ tidy place. The clean person get* rid of dangerous dirts when he gets rid of all dirt. Thi* irwhy. generally,speak­ ing. health and cleanliness go hand in hand. Because a clean city or town, by car­ ing for all dirt, make* sure that danger­ ous dirt is -disposed of. because dean surrounding* arc a stimulant to per­ sonal cleanliness and orderliness, and breathe cleanliness makes for more comfortable and happier live*, all ef­forts toward* securing and keeping a city or town clean are to be commend­ ed and sholdd be supported.

O my Saviour, hide, Till the storm of life be past; Safe into the haven guide.

Wc ask this in the name of our Saviour, who once lay in the arm* of a holy mother. Amen.” SCRIPTURE Psalm 103; Is. 66:16. MEDITATION I*. 66*16 “As one whom his mother comfortcth, so I will cofort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem." Wc hrve grown so accustomed to thinking of God in terms of father­ hood that it appears strange to talk about the motherhood of God. How­ ever, if wc study the character of God as revealed in the Bible, wc shall dis­ cover that motherhood best represents God in his most winsome attributes. high: of upon Give us For example, take the 103rd psalm, which prsents such a beautiful picture of God, and the character of God as depicted there is far more akin to motherhood than to fatherhood. True, a father may pity hi* children, and evidence to a certain degree all the other virtues mentioned but those vir- turc* appear to greater perfection in motherhood. Who can forgive like a mother? who is so faithful in ninistry in illness and need? Who can >e more bountiful in supplying good hings? Who so rightou* in judg­ ment? Who so merciful and gracious, and slow to anger? Who *o patient and long suffering? Who else, but God? But it is the cross which best Ictnon st rates the motherhood of God. No father possesses the capacity to suffer and die for the children a* does the mother. It'is the mother who goc* into the valley of death for the child. Motherhood, in it* sacrificial ervice, comes very close to Good. A mother should be able to understand Calvary a* no father ever can. A* the old hymn puts its: ”O mother, when 1 think of thee, 'tis but a step to Calvary. "Though God come* very near to us in His Fatherhood, wc arc glad hat He is described a* a mother. HYMN •Abide with me, fast falls the even­ tide; The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide!When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me.” variety of other things. She has no chance to specialize on any particular kind of work. To bring up children properly is a job of itself, but just think of the other thing* she has to do, and these things generally come into her life without any thought or pre­ paredness whatever. Is it not time that there were schools or some sort.of training to teach young women in regard to becoming wives and mothers? In the schools they are taught things, mostly, to lead away from the home life. If wc would pre­ serve our home life, wc need women trained for that capacity, and why not, when our very civilization depends upon it. What greater responsibility in the world than that of becoming a mother? But. how mhny of our young women arc prepared by knowledge to assume the responsibility? We may sing praises of mother on .Mother’s' Day. Wc may give her beautiful flowers, but if wc do nothing to lessen her labors, or bring joy into her life day by day, of what avail arc a few flowers? Even in the rural sections today, there arc manifold ways of lightening the labors of mother. But is it done? In how many rural homes will you find running water, a sink or electric appli­ ances? Are there not places where mother has to go up a flight of steps to carry water for the family's use. You may even find radios or victrolas' in the house and many labor-saving devices at the barn, but mother is doing the same thing* in the same way. as she started out to do, as a young bride thirty year* ago, or more. Wouldn’t it be a fine idea to look about tht home this Mother's Day and see what you can do to lighten her labors and bring joy to her, while she is yours and is here with you. To­ morrow nQy be too. late.’ Perhaps mother -has been longing for a new dress. See that she gets it. Perhaps she needs other accessories for the home. Why not take an inventory of things and try to get her something to lessen her labors and bring pleasure to her eager heart. Why not give mother an auto ride, take her to sec’ an old friend, or gather May flowers and listen to her voice burst forth in reminis­ cences of childhood. A big or expen­ sive monument placed to mark her last resting place is a bit of show for the passing wor(d to admire and pass by. But a labor-saving device to lighten her work and give her a little time to relax and enjoy life is worth more than slabs of finest marble. Recently J heard a dear mother say: “Oh. I am tired, my heart can't stand much any more; I don't see how I can live through the summer, and do the work I have to do." My heart was touched. Here was a real mother, one who has worked and slaved to bring up a large family. The sons and daugh­ ters hold trustworthy places in the world and arc making money. Still their mother, yes aud their father too. is struggling away on the farm, work­ ing themselves into mere shadows. What for? Possibly to leave money to their children when they lcav-£ this stage of action. I ktiow not why. This mother always receives flowers on Mother’s Day. but does her work in the same old way—no conveniences to mention. She raakc> butter, bakes bread and caters to the inmates of that home while down deep in her heart she cries out for rest and recreation, a let up in the work she has done unceas­ ingly for thirty years or more. This is only one case. How many mothers are there today who cry out in the same Planner? Will wc listen to these cries in time to be of service? And you whose mothers have passed on. flace a flower on her grave if you will. endcr memories always hover near the place of departed. But if you can bring cheer to some one else’s mother on this day. why not try and do so. It will bring you joy and happiness. There are yet some lonely mothers in the world. "Kind words cost little and arc worth much." Why are they so hard to say, when they arc greatly needed and help to make the pathway of life much brighter? How many young girls are there to­ day who think of mother and arc ready to make sacrifices in her favor? There are indeed those who do. but on the other hand, are there not many who put self first, and always.. Daughter. . I appeal to you to think of mother and help share her burden*. Daughter, don't let (pother do it, Do not let her slave and toil. While you sit a careless idler. Fearing your soft hands to soil. Don’t you see the heavy burdens Daily she is wont to bear. Bring the furrows to her forehead. Sprinkle silver in her hair." Share her burdens, share them gladly. I Be to her a help and friend. * i Do your duty, do it nobly, Ever help to mother lend. We should pity the young girl mother. There arc some, even in this! beloved Canada, who arc today bearing I that burden alone. Father has proved I unfaithful, and has broken hi* trust. Such mothers should have our deepest love and sympathy instead of a frown' and the look of scorn. Meanwhile, wc| should do something to protect the I character of our young girls, and help: them to keep their bodies clean and| pu/c until that day when they shall pass through the open door itfto the real home life with one they love, their chosen life mate. Again I appeal to all our readers to remember all our mothers, in whatever stage of life they arc to be found. In­ deed, wc owe to them our deepest rev- rcnce and love. On them depend our nation’s welfare. Why not then, pay to them our tribute in love, word and action. "Evangeline." School Reports S. S.

The discrepancy be­ tween the increase in volume of pro­ duction and employment, while partly due to increased efficiency of labour and improvement in methods of man­ agement. is largely attributable to the increased use of power in industrial production. According to the Royal Bank of Can­ ada’s statistics of electric power pro­ duction. the number of kilowatt ‘hour* produced during the first quarter of 1928 exceeded that of the correspond­ ing period of 1927 by 15.4 per cent, and that of 1926 and 1925 by 44.0 per cent, and 77.7 per cent, respectively.

Health Service of the Canadian Medi­ cal Assosiation There ha* always been an association between dirt and disease. In their ear­liest day*, health department* were oc­ cupied in cleaning up the town* and cities because it was believed that dis­ ease was bred in dirt. We have learned that there is a great difference in the various kinds of dirt. The only dip which is dangerous is that which it contaminated by secre­tion* of the human or animal body. The reason for thi* is that the body secretion* carry away from the body the deseaie germ* which may be pres­ ent in it. Tin can* arc unsightly, but tin can* arc not in themselves going to cause disease. Potatoes or apples, in rotting, give off an offensive smell but bad smell* do not cau*c any disease. The clean person, the one who cov- cr*ihi» coughs and sneeze* with a hand­ kerchief, who keeps flies out of hi* home, who washes his hands before he. eat*, is not going to live in a dirty, un­ tidy place. The clean person gets rid of dangerous dirts when he get* rid of nil dirt. This iAvhy. generally speak­ ing, health and cleanliness go hand in hand. Because a clean city or town, by car­ ing for all dirt, makes sure that danger­ ous dirt is -disposed of. because clean surrounding* are a stimulant to per­ sonal cleanliness and orderliness, and because cleanliness make* for more comfortable and happier live*, all ef­ fort* toward* securing and keeping a city or town clean are to be commend­ ed and sho’Uld lie supported.

MEDITATION Is. 66'16 “As one whom his mother comfortcth, so I will cofort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem." Wc have grown so accustomed to thinking of God in terms of father­ hood that it appears strange to talk about the motherhood of God. How­ ever, if we study the character of God as revealed in the Bible, wc shall dis­ cover that motherhood best represents God in his most winsome attributes. high: oi upon Give us For example, take the 103rd psalm, "which prsents such a beautiful picture of God. and lhe character of God as depicted there is far more akin to motherhood than to fatherhood. True, a father may pity his children, and evidence to a certain degree all the other virtues mentioned but those vir- turcs appear to greater perfection in motherhood. Who can forgive like mother? who is so faithful in ninistry in illness and need? Who can le more bountiful in supplying good hings? Who so rightous in judg- nent? Who so merciful and gracious, and slow to anger? Who so patient and long suffering? Who else, but God? But it is the cross which best demonstrates the motherhood of God. No father possesses the capacity to suffer and die for the children as does the mother. It'is the mother who goes into the valley of death for the child. Motherhood, in its sacrificial crvicc, comes very close to Good. A mother should be able to understand Calvary as no father ever can. As the old hymn puts its: "O mother, when 1 think of thee, 'tis but a step to Calvary. '"Though God comes very near to us in His Fatherhood, wc arc glad hat He is described as a mother.

To bring up children properly is a job oi itself, but just think oi the other things she has to do, and these things generally come into her life without any thought or pre­ paredness whatever. Is it not time that there were schools or some sort-of training to teach young women in regard to becoming wives and mothers? In the schools they arc taught things, mostly, to lead away from the home life. If wc would pre­ serve our home life, we need women trained for that capacity, and why not, when our very civilization depends upon it. What greater responsibility in the world than that of becoming a mother? But. how mhny of our young women arc prepared by knowledge to assume the responsibility? Wc may sing praises of mother on .Mother's’ Day. We may give her beautiful flowers, but if we do nothing to lessen her labors, or bring joy into her life day by day, of what avail arc a few flowers? Even in the rural sections today, there arc manifold ways of lightening the labors of mother. But is it done? In how many rural homes will you find running water, a sink or electric appli­ ances? Arc there not places where mother has to go up a flight of steps to carry water for the family’s use. You may even find radios or victrolas in the house and many labor-saving devices at the barn, but mother is doing the same things in the same way, as she started out to do, as a young bride thirty years ago. or more. Wouldn't it be a fine idea to look about tht home this Mother's Day and sec what you can do to lighten her labors and bring joy to her, while she is yours and is here with you. To­ morrow rrtSy be too late.’ Perhaps mother has been longing for a new dress. See that she gets it. Perhaps she needs other accessories for the home. Why not take an inventory of things and try to get her something to lessen her labors and bring pleasure to her eager heart. Why not give mother an auto ride, take her to sec’ an old friend, or gather May flowers and listen to her voice burst forth in reminis­ cences of childhood. A big or expen­ sive monument placed to mark her last resting place is a bit of show for the passing wor(d to admire and pass by. But a labor-saving device to lighten her work and give her a little time to relax and enjoy life is worth more than slabs of finest marble. Recently J heard a dear mother say: “Oh. I am tired, my heart can't stand much any more; I don’t see how I can live through the summer, and do the work I have to do." My heart was touched. Here was a real mother, one who has worked and slaved to bring up a large family. The sons and daugh­ ters hold trustworthy places in the world and arc making money. Still their mother, yes and their father too, is struggling away on the farm, work­ ing themselves into mere shadows. What for? Possibly to leave money to their children when they leave this stage of action. I ktoow not why. This mother always receives flowers on Mother’s Day, but docs her work in the same old way—no conveniences to mention. She makes butter, bakes bread and caters to the inmates of that home while down deep in her heart she cries out for rest and recreation, a let up in the work she Mas done unceas­ ingly for thirty years or more. This is only one case. How many mothers arc there today who cry out in the same manner? Will we listen to these cries in time to be of service? And you whose mothers have passed on, place a flower on her grave if you will. Tender memories always hover near the place of lift departed. But if you can bring cheer to some one elsc's mother on this day. why not try and do so. It will bring you joy and happiness. There are yet some lonely mothers in the world. “Kind words cost little and are worth much.” Why arc they so hard to say, when they arc greatly needed and help to make the pathway of life much .brighter? How many young girls arc there to­ day who think of mother and arc "ready to make sacrifices in her f^vor? There arc indeed those who do, but on the other hand, are there not many who put self first, and always.. Daughter, I appeal to you to think of mother and help share her burdens. Daughter, don’t let piothcr do it, Do not let her slave and toil. While you sit a careless idler. Fearing your soil hands to soil. Don’t you sec the heavy burdens Daily she is wont to bear. Bring the furrows to her forehead. Sprinkle silver in her hair." Share her burdens, share them gladly.1 Be to her a help and friend. Do your duty, do it nobly, Ever help to mother lend. Wc should pity the young girl mother. There arc some, even in this! beloved Canada, who arc today bearing I that burden alone. Father has proved unfaithful, and has broken his trust. Such mothers should have our deepest love and sympathy instead of a frown and the look of scorn. Meanwhile, wc should do something to protect the character of our young girls, and help them to keep their bodies clean and pu/e until that day when they shall pass through the open door itfto the real home life with one they love, their chosen life mate. Again I appeal to all our readers to remember all our mothers, in whatever stage of life they arc to be found. In­deed, wc owe to them our deepest rev- rcnce and love. On them depend our nation’s welfare. Why not then, pay to them our tribute in love, word and action. "Evangeline." School Reports S. S. No. 1, Houghton Jr- IV.—Lcta Vaughan 74.

All you have to do nowadays to lim­ ber up that stiff, rusty knee joint is to squeeze a half inch of miracle working substance from a tube. Then rub it on the offending part for about a quarter of a minute or until it soak* through the skin and disappears on its errand of mercy. Then read the evening newspapers and go to bed. The chances arc that your misbehav­ ing knee joint will lose its “creak" while you arc dreaming about the high fences you used to leap when you were a youngster. “And in the morning," says one who has tried the new discover)-, “You'll fed so happy that you'll want to jump into your sportiest clothes and walk briskly down the street just to show the neigh­ bors that you arc not as old as they think you are." Joint-Ease: They call this wonder working substance, for the reason that when ordinary remedies fail to limber up the stiff, inflamed rheumatic joint, or reduce the swelling, Joint-Ease suc­ ceeds. It’s a good name for a good, dean, stainless prescription that in ju*t a few months ha* proven to a multitude of people that lame, swollen, distorted joints can speedily have the kink* taken out of them and work as smoothly as ever. Rut Joint-Ease is for bothersome joints, whether in knee, ankle, hip, shoulder, spine or finger, and tor that P M^mddi^DnjrSZe has . big supply of It and druggist* everywhere report a big demand. —sJUk me 1 uiwnDurg news May 19th, 1928 SACRIFICE SUE Satin or Fur-Trimmed All Sizes including Stouts Sale Price $27.50 Sale Price $23.95 Regular $27.00 Sale Price $22.00 Regular $25.00 Sale Price $18.50 Regular $20.00 Sale Price $16.50 Sale Starts Friday, 8:30 A.

Her fair face grew pale as she spoke, and hcr heart beat quickly as waited for his answer. "How dearly you ladies love argu­ ment?" said Lord Bayneham, with a smile. "Well, suppose, as you say, Bluebell, that I had married some one very dreadful and disgraceful, and found it out afterward, what should I do with her? Was that what you asked "Yes." she replied, and he never saw hcr quivering lip or noticed her tremb- ng voice. "Well,'' continued Lord Bayneham, with an amused smile, "of course, any one dreadful or disgraceful must be *cnt back to her friends again.

He spoke carelessly, never dreaming she attached any importance to his word*. They destroyed the last gleam of hope in her heart. She could never tell him hcr secret; for now, if he should know it, he would send away. From that hour hope sccmd to leave her; day by day that fair young face grew more sad and wistful, and the graceful figure grew thin. I-ord Bayneham became seriously alarmed, and summoned one of the lies' physician* in England to hi* wife s aid; but the doctor wa* puzzled too. "You tell me." he said to the carl, "that l^dy Bayneham ha* had no trouble, no grief or anxiety preying upon her."

He thought her spirits forced, and her gayety un­ natural and assumed. It was a strange lot that had fallen over that fair young child, and she faded away under the weight of the secret. The grass was beginning to grow upon her mother's grave, still no hint of it escaped her, yet its weight was robbing her of life, and hope and love. She began to think she might be justified in telling Lord Bayneham "No matter." she said to herself, "how binding the vow, it could never be right to keep a secret from him." She grew bewildered, and there were times when she could hardly dis- tnguish between right and wrong. It was so hard to keep a secret from him when she loved him so much. One evening Barbara Earle had been singing a pretty ballad, founded upon the story of Lord Burleigh, of Bur­ leigh House. "I do not like that story." said Lady Bayneham; "Lord Burleigh should have chosen a wife from his own class. Unequal marriage* are never happy ones." Hilda ____ photograph*. and Lord Bavneham was assisting her. "Is that your belief?" she said to him. when Lady Bayneham had ceased speaking.

Her dark hair wa* as uxuriant a* ever; rose* bloomed on her cheek and lip; there were light and fire in her dark eyes, and no wrinkle or’ line marred the pleasant, comely face Lady Grahame wa* fairly entitled to be called "well preserved." Why should she be otherwise? Her life had been one calm, untroubled scene of enjoyment. She knew nothing of the darker side of life, though she had a vague idea that somewhere far away From her prosperous, happy world there were darker shades of human life—slim, mysterious troubles that made people old before their time, and brought them to that wonderful mys­ tery called death. She was the only child of a country squire, and early in life had married Sir Wilton Grahame, a baronet of noble descent, and through him wa* connected with some of the best families in England. Her mother was the daughter of lx»rd Dalecairn of Dalecairn, and her mother’s family was a large one. Sir Wilton Grahame died, leaving hi* widow a comfortable jointure; her parent* died, leaving a small fortune; and Lady Grahame, while still in the prime of life, found herself free and unfettered, moderately rich, liked .mJ courted by the numerous aristoc.atic members, of hcr family. l-ady Grahame made no pretensions to intellectual culture. She knew the names of the leading authors of the day. she knew the most popular artist*, and the be»t pictures they painted "Such thing* were talked about," and »hc never liked to be behind. There all mental effort ended; she liked an elegant house, well filed with pretty knickknack*, she liked a few well tram ed servant*, fashionable dresses, and good jewelry, all of which tastes her income enabled her to gratify. The one grand study of her life was "com­ fort. She had no idea beyond it. Her sofa-cuihion* and easy-chairs must be of the softest down; no breath of cold, no rough winds must ever come near hcr. Her table must be daintily prepared, and hcr slumber never brok­ en. ( In order to insure this continual at- , tention to her comfort. Lady Grahame I sought for a companion. She wa* not long in finding one. For a certain stated sum Miss Lowe consented to devote every thought of hcr mind to the personal comfort of Lady Gra­ hame. The ladies had been out shopping, and something had evidently caused Lady Grahame great pleasure, for hcr eyes sparkled, and hcr comely, pleas­ ant face wa* lit with smile*. "I tell you. my dear,” she said to Mis* I .owe, "that I have really never seen a more handsome man. Poor Sir Wilton had a nice face, but he wa* not to he compared to him; his attentions were quite marked. Mrs. Henderson tell* me he has beseiged her with re­ quest* for an introduction to me.” The cver-attentive Miss Lowe mur­ mured something to the effect that it wa* not surprising; which little bit of incense being properly offered and accepted. Lady Grahame resumed her remark* with the same exnression of well-pleased vanity. "I am told that he is very wealthy; that he made a fortune abroad, and goes in the best society, I know. Really I never saw a more polished or charming manner, and such a flow of spirit*. I can not remember the witty things he said, hut we quite agreed upon many point*. He has a very handsome house near the Park." Miss Lowe looked amiably interest­ ed. having nothing particular to say. "There are times," continued the lady pathetically, “when I feel very lonely. When poor Sir Wilton wm alive he kept me continually amused. Really, to quote and alter the saying of a French king.

Not that a lover wa* a novelty, for hcr pleasing person and comfortable join­ ture had attracted many, but some­ thing ot another interfered with each of them. One was too old, another only sought her for her money, a third »a* too diisipated, a fourth could not agree over settlements; and. in sober earnest. Lady Grahame cared for none of them. But she wa* quite pleated with the homage of this handsome, debonair man, whose careless smile* and word* were so full of life and humor, and Lady Grahame returned home in a perfect flutter of spirits; for hczhad asked permission to call on the morrow, to show her the wonderful opal, about which he told such a strange, interesting story. The morrow came and Lady Gra­ hame's maid found it very difficult to pIcMe hcr; but when the toilet was completed, she acknowledged it to be a perfect success.

The blinds were skillfully arranged, so that a beautiful rosy light came from the silken haging*. It was really a R picture; and Lucy Grahame, in lective toilet, was pleasant to look upon. ”1 will not read, my dear," she said, when Miss Lowe suggested a book; "it makes me so sleepy and stupid Give me thtat purse I am netting;you can read aloud if you choose." But not one word did Lady Gra­ hame hear; her thoughts were all upon he visitor whose coming she anticipated so anxiously.

He was the same man that beneath the shade of the woods of Brynmar had wooed Magdalen Hurst to her fate.

M. SMITH NORTH BROADWAY PHONE 340 what they called a fine gentleman; but he kept aloof from them. At first he was sullen in despair, but hope began to whisper of what he might do when he should once more be free. He was only tweny-ninc; in ten yar* he would still be a comparatively young man. He sent for hi* wife, but when he saw her he hated her, because hi* sin and her shame had stricken the fair beauty of youth from her face. He heard of the wonderful gold-field* in California, and when the time o’ Lis freedom came he returned there, and succeeded beyond hi* wildest hopes. He amassed a fortune and returned to England, and hi* first step wa* to try to get rid of hi* beautiful, unhappy wife, who still remained where he Had left her. Then he set to work to reconstruct hi* life. He wa* not afraid of recog­ nition. Of the fast set he hadlived with none -remained, wa* dead, some were had vanished to no one In seventeen years the world un­ dergoes great changes, and no one could have recognized in the hand­ some. bearded man the ex-convict. Stephen Hurst. He took a large house, furnished it magnificently, and made his way into society. He was warmly welcomed there, and no one in London gave better bachelor dinner* or kept a more hospitable house. He had but one trouble: the wife he had learned to hate discovered him: had met him in the public streets, and had cried out his name. To his relief, some months afterward, there came a letter from her. addressed to him in his newly assumed name, bidding him farewell, a* she had not many days longer to live. He had then supposed she was dead, and troubled himself about her no more. He was free now to retrieve his mistakes, to make for himself another life, for the past was buried. He thought sometime* with a dull wonder of his child, half curious to know if it were living or dead. One thing was necessary to secure his posi­ tion, and that was a good marriage. He did not want money, but connec­ tion. He must marry someone who could establish him securely in good society, and secure for him one entree into circles that, at present, were clo*ed to him. So when he hard of Lady Grahame he knew he had found what he wanted, and set himself to woo and win the pleasant self-in­ dulgent widow. 'I have been impatiently awaiting the time when you gave me permission to call, l-ady Grahame," said Mr. Ful­ ton. “I never found a day and night so long before." Lady Grahame blushed and smiled. Cool, elegant woman of the world as she was. she did not feel at her case in the presence of this handsome stranger. He had brought the wonder­ ful opal, and there was plenty of dis­ cussion over it. He did not say how it came into his possession, but it had been taken from the treasure gems of some great Indian rajah. He showed the wondrous gleaming colors. the ever-changing tints, the hidden fire that seemed at times to flash ruby-red from it* depth*. "It should be set in pure, pale gold.’ said Lady Grahame, admiringly. "I have seen many jewels, but none like this." "1 hope to have it made into a ring." *aid Mr. Fulton, "if ever good fortune should favor my wishes and I should marry ; for that jewel will show*, to perfection on a fair white hand." Lady Grahame involuntarily glanced at her own a* he spoke, then blushed as she found his eyes bent upon her. There wa* so much to be said about the wonderful opal that it wa* luncheon-time before the visit wa* half ended, and Mr. Fulton accepted l-ady Grahame's invitation to join them. He was beginning to fall in love with his own scheme, and the more he saw of the lady the more sure he felt that she above all others was best suited for him. During the course of conversation Mr. Fulton found that Lady Grahame seemed to know every one, and go cverwhcrc, and the circles he sighed in vain to enter were open to her. "You have been years, I presume?" said Lady Gra­ hame. "Yes," said Mr. adopted any plan which would have enhanced her value more in his eyes. He gratified her vanity by seeking her advice; he told her how much he wished to be of »crvice to hi* country; that he wanted to do some­ thing which would make him more worhty of winning a gloriuo* prize. He wanted to purchase an estate that would give him some standing and in­ fluence in the country. It so happened that just at that time Squire Grcnholme, of Grcnhohne Park, near Oulston, died, and the greater part of his property, consisting of land* and houses in Oulston, was for sale. Mr. Fulton'* solicitor told him of it. The Hall would not be sold until the death of the squire’s widow, mow old and infirm, but the other property was to be had at a great bargain. In the course of a few years, when the frail life ended, he could purchase the Hall, and would become, as Squire of Grcnholme, a man of position and eminence. The opporunity was too tempting to be lost . The purchase was concluded, and Mr. Fulton found himself a large andowner, and possessor of numerous houses in the pretty town of Oulston; and when all was arranged he went triumphantly to Lady Grahame, to tell her what he had done. * "You have acted vedy wisely." shu said; ‘‘money is very well, but nothing give* one such a good standing as the possession of property. Did you say Oulston? Lord Bayncham's estate is omewhere near, i* it not?" “Yes," replied Mr. Fulton, who had arefully ascertained all the “bear­ ings" of hi* new acquisition. “Bayne- ham Castle is about six miles from the own. It is the chief place in the neighborhood, I believe.” * “1 should imagine so," said Lady Grahame, indifferently; “and .if ever you should purchase the Hall, Mr. Fulton, and become Squire of Gren- holmc, you will find them charming neighbors. The Dowager Lady Bayne- J:am is one of my dearest friend*. Her pon is abroad Just now." “ You have so many friends. Lady Grahame I sighed her admirer. “I, the young earl married?" "Yes." replied her ladyship; "he married last year one ofc tthe Itfvliest girls in England; they are in Italy now, I believe. The young Lady Bayneham will be one of our brightest »tars. I never met any one so exquis- tley lovely, graceful and refined."

His task lay straight before him; he had but to win Lady Grahame and his life would be one long success. wish very quite CHAPTER XXI Considering his naturally ease-loving nature. Mr. Fulton certainly gave him­ self some trouble in attaining his object. He spared no pain*. If Lady Grahame went to the opera, he wa* sure to be seen in her box. Whatever ball or party she attended, he was in­ variably present. People began to say, “If you ask Lady Grahame, you must not forget Mr. Fulton; he is her shadow." Rare and magnificent bouquets found their way to her table, and Mis* Lowe’s office became a mere sinecure; but Mr. Fulton could not tell if he were making much progress. Lady Grahame was always pleased to see him, and smiled over his bouquets, and enjoyed hi* conversation; but she gave him na reason to hope that she would ever Income his wife. Innately prudent now that there was a lover to whom no one could raise any objections she began to ask her­ self seriously whether a husband would not sadly interfere with her love of comfort. She could not hope to be the first object of attention in the house if she were married. A husband requires much waiting upon, much patience. Was it worth her while to give up her freedom, and take upon herself new chains? These thought* made her pause before accepting Mr. Fulton, or even allowing him to appear as her lover; but it did not dartip hi* ardor. It wa* something new and not unpleasing to him to meet with ojfcoiition.

NEW ROAD Sunday BY traveling 5,000 miles in 4,751 con- 1 secutive minutes, the Studebaker Dictator has established a record un­ equaled by any stock car in the same price class — comparable to the existing worltL. record of5,000 miles in 4,559 minutes made* by the Studebaker Commander last fall. And not one, but two Dictator Road­ sters, fully equipped, each traveled 5,000 miles in less than that number of minutes. The run was made at the Atlantic City Speedway, April 20-23, under the super­ vision of the Contest Board of the Amer­ ican Automobile Association. Before and after the run, the cars were checked by the Technical Committee and were pro­ nounced strictly stock models. CLAIMS rj. FACTS Automobile advertising is full of extrav­ agant claims of performance. But Stude­baker offers you definite FACTS supported by the certificate of the highest motoring Authority. Under A. A. A. supervision The Commander has made a record never approached by any other car on earth (25,000 miles in less than 23,000 minutes). The Erskine and The Dictator have made records unequaled by any other stock cars at or near their prices. The high quality of materials, the pre­ cision workmanship, the rigid inspections and the engineering genius in the Stude­ baker Dictator are provedriot only by its ability to travel 5,000 miles in less than 4,800 consecutive minutes, but also by the fact that any Dictator can be driven 40 miles per hour as soon as it leaves the assembly line at the factory. Backed by Studebaker’s 76-year repu­ tation for quality and value, The Dictator offers champion performance at a low One-Profit price.
