BUTT Coen** Broadway aad Oxford Stroots The parade of the Tillsonburg Just • Kids Safety Club was held in Washing ton Grand Avenue Park on Saturday afternoon at 4:30 p.m., with Councillor W. E Lambden acting as chairnun. Captain E. W. Court of the Salvation ' Army, introduced the chairman and j thanked all those who had assembled to give the new movement a boost in Till sonburg. Following the singing of ' "Tlie Maple Leaf," led by the fine sil- i ver band of the Brantford Salvation . Army corps, the chairman congratulat- ' cd The Globe for fostering such a ' splendid movement in the province. Mayor Weston delivered a short, im pressive address, stating it was always a pleasure to speak to the children, but he believed the adults needed the most talking to in the present "Just Kids'' movement to save lives on the street. He urged the children to be very care ful in stepping off the curb and to cross the streets at the proper intersections. He warned the children that it took any motorist a few feet to stop a car and that many accidents were avoid able on a little more care on the part of the children and motorists combined, concluding with the statement that one child's life was worth more than all the motorists in Tillsonburg. At this juncture Alvirus Gleason, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. O. Gleason, Brock street, was introduced to the crowd asi the first member enrolled in The Globe's "Just Kids" Safety Club in town. i Chief of Police Carter was very pleased to accept the invitation of Captain Court to be present and thought it was one of the finest move ments ever inaugurated and gave lhe credit to “Officer Branncr.” He re ferred to another character in the movement, the girl “Marjory," who was always in the background taking care of the younger folks, and he wished there were more such Marjories in this district. He urged the children to do more than wear the buttons and remember their pledge to "look up and down before crossing the street." In closing, Chief Carter stated there were several local motorists who could not even Sec a stop sign. Rev. A. W. Hone, who has been a very active promoter of the club, stated he had come well prepared for a long speech and carried a large reference book of personal records. Mr. Hone gave some very touching accounts of what carelessness costs, referring to the killing of two young lads in To ronto by motor cars in 1914 and 1916. The cost was the loss of two lives dur ing the war, when all lives were needed and Canada lost two potential future citizens. Statistics showed there had been fewer accidents since the "Just Kids" club was started, and Mr. Hone congratulated The Globe on the success attained. He has over one hundred members of St. Pauls Sunday school enrolled.George McCullough, special service representative of The Globe, thanked the local citizens for their kind invita tion to visit the town. He congratu lated the local town officials that the founder of such a beautiful town had the foresight to build such a fine wide street for a Broadway, and knew that Toronto and several other large cities envied Tillsonburg along this line. He gave credit for the record enrolment in the •dub to the children themselves, the total now being over 180.000. The Globe had considered it a great com pliment when the Salvation Army had taken such an interest in the local club, and he thanked Rev. Home and Capt. Court for their efforts. The buttons were a symbol of the promise the chil dren had made and were, worn to re mind the wearers of their pledge and slogan. He referred to the great gath ering in Sarnia a week ago where he spoke to an assemblage of 5000 adults and children with A. C. Trusslcr, for merly of Tillsonburg. as one of the moving spirits in the organization. He assured the kiddies they could still be members of the club, regardless of what newspaper they read in the home. He urged the club members to send new safety slogans and short letters to their own page in The Globe. Chairman Lambden in clpsing the program, urged the children to get a lot more members and remember their slogan, as traffic dangers were increasing in Tillsonburg. Several excellent selections were given by the band, and after the National An them a parade was held down Broad way, featured by banners bearing the slogan of the club, and dismissed at the Army hall.

Jupiter Pluvius is sure unkind to the local baseball crew, stopping yester day's game just when it was getting real interesting, after Smith lhe local moundsman had struck out the first two men in the first of the sixth. Smith had six strikeouts, while Brown of Sparta had four to his credit. The only error of the game was Sparta's second baseman's muff of Fisher's infield fly. Fisher's double play unassisted was the titbit of the locals' fielding. Gilbert of Sparta scored both runs, one in the first and the other in the third, on some very pretty base running. That boy sure knows how to steal bases. Tillsonburg lost two splendid oppor tunities to score—had the bases loaded twice with only one down, but lacked the necessary punch to score. Just here a little friendly criticism might not be amiss. There are times in base ball when a bunt or a sacrifice is more effective than endeavoring to break the cover off the ball.

They had finish ed lunch and were travelling along at a good speed when the motor started 1 missing fire. Bronson, who had for merly conducted a garage at Port Stanley, was in garage clothes and climbed over into the cockpit, where he drained some gasoline from the carbu retor into his hand, remarking as he .• did so that it was "no wonder, she would not run on water: I will let some I of it cut. ' He then let some of it run into the bottom oi the boat and almost instantly the gasoline burst into flames | ■ which enveloped Bronson, who im-, mediately jumped overboard. Attempt Rescue Lute* shut eff the motor switch, but, the boat was 150 yard* from Bronson j bei-re it lost headway. The latter.; after being in the water some time while the others were fighting the fire , called out that he was "getting tired.". The men in the '>-at then tried to reach life belts which were in the cock-' pit. but when they were about to toss ■ one to Bronson he had sunk. Fletcher wa» badly burned about the1 hands in fighting the fire, which was :. t subdued until nearly an hour later and not until the men had partially un-< dres-ed in expectation o: having to; rump into the water themselves as the blaze stubbornly resisted their efforts to extinguish it. The three survivors then paddled to shore, a distance oi a mile. The boat was badly burned. The wive* of the, t.ur tr.cn had motored from Port Stan ley to Turkey Point, where they had Search Commenced The boat was beached about two mile* east ci the Government road at Long Point, a little travelled area, but fishermen of the district soon learned of the tragedy and a search commenced, although those experienced in the sec-' tion of the lake say the drift will make ■ it extremely difficult to locate the body.' No trace of it was reported tonight. Russell Bronson was a son of Free man Bronson, merchant, at Walsing- ham Centre. He leaves a wife and son. Murray, aged eight years. Recently he sold hi. garage business in Port Stan ley and was understood to intend start- 1 ing immediately into the boat-building business. The first all-steel tug built there, the Clara B.. was made by him and was recently delivered to purchas- j ers at Pon Dover. Mr. Bronson was- ar. exoert welder and found much work along that line.

You- and. your Neighbor YOU and your neighbor have common interests—comfortable homes—daily necessities of life—children’s education—a fair amount of pleasures and some luxuries—all of which depend on the big item of INCOME. By this time you should be—and per haps are—in a position to realize how you can increase your income by becom ing a profit sharing partner in Cities Service, the public service organization which supplies hundreds of thousands of people in ONTARIO and in all parts of the United States with service and pro ducts essentia] to the progress of civili zation—GAS, electricity, water, ice. light, heat, irasoline and oils. Over 35U.UUU people have money invest ed in secunties of the Cities Service or ganization. Perhaps you are among them. It is likely that there are several Cities Sen-ice security owners right in your own neighborhood. They are AL MOST EVERYWHERE — right here in ONTARIO—in the United States and in thirty-six other foreign countries. Cities Sendee is now the second largest organization, in the country in number of security holders—because so many people like you and your neighbor have faith and confidence that their money working for Cities Service is well pro tected and brings a good return, and if they need cash they can readily sell their securities. Keeping Up With Your Neighbor While you and your neighbor are now on a co-operative basis, yet you still compete—in a friendly way—in "get ting” on in the world." Remember that your neighbor who has formed the h^bit of buying Cities Service Preferred Stock,'and f/\ i who is steadilv building his income y thereby, is getting on. Are you keeping up with him? YOU can buy Cities Service Preferred even if you have only a small amount to invest The monthly payment plan will help you get started. The employees of the local Cities Ser vice company will be authorized, for a ten-day period, to take your order for Cities Service Preferred Stock. They win be able to give you, before you in vest, all the essential information you may want about Cities Service Company and its securities. You Have Four Good Reasons The main reasons why an investment in Cities Service Preferred Stock is a good one for you and your neighbor are— 1. Your money and your dividends are well protected. For every 81 you invest In Cities Service Preferred the company has asset* of 82.50. For every 81 needed to pay divi dends on Preferred Stock over J4.00 Is be ing earned. 2. You get a yield of nearly 6%. 8. Your dividends a.-e payable monthly by cheques mailed to your home on the first of every month. 4. If you should need your money there is a ready market for your stock. Talk over thia Investment opportunity with your neighbor—preferably one who now owns Cities Service securities—and be ready to aak cur employee, when he calls on you. further'Information you may want.

A special musical program was provided by the choir, ably assisted by Mr. C. Jackson, soloist, of Hamil ton. by the male quartette and Mis* L. Durnford at the organ in the absence of Miss Cameron, who was ill. The pastor, in the morning, made mention of the many special days in the Jewish religious calendar and ot their special anniversaries. He explained the Feast of Dedication, the Feast of Jubilee, the Feast of the New Moon, the Feast of Purin and the Feast of Penticost. "Not only arc we celebrating today the birth day of the Christian church on this very day of Penticost. but incidentally celebrating the birth of this local church, born 109 years ago.” the speak er said. Comparing and contrasting the church born on Penticost and the local Baptist church, the pMtor re marked. "Penticost when fully come, supplemented the cold legal letter ol the Law received on Penticost at Mt. Sinai. For it was 50 days later, after leaving Egypt, that Law was Riven and 50 day* after the Resurrection tnat Penticost came. So in our churches we must have the Spirit rather than the law only. A* to place, we are not sure what kind of a building it was. but it did not matter, the fact remains they were all together in one place—that place may be a barn, a tent, a church or out in an open air. Not this moun tain or that is alone sufficient. ' They are all of one accord." unity, harmony, marked the birth of the pioneer church, and while I am quite deaf and hear very little. I shall be glad to announce today if any member can recall a single friction or unkind word in any of our business meetings on this field since I came here as pastor. I am willing to advertise the nature and number of times we have had a single instance of back-biting or friction ” In closing, he said: “While called the Baptist church we arc really a Catholic church—that is, a universal church. And I wish we were better Methodist* for we have need* of better method* alway*. We are still of course Baptists when it comes to scriptural baptism, and would too that we were a real Pcnticostal church as far as the fullness of the Spirit is concerned, and we ought to be Free Methodist* for “He whom the Son set* free is free indeed. We are a United Church and a Union Church, thus all can see we do not mind being called Brethren, for the Lord himself said "I am not ashamed to call you Brethren." But above all thing* let us not waste time on sectarian names but let u* exalt Hi* name together." In the evening the pastor referred to the idolatry of the people of today, the lusts of the people, their worship of wealth, position, power, etc., forgetting entirely thing* spiritual. The speaker also referred to the sacrifice* of the Christian martyrs, who endeavored to carry the Word to the whole world. Especial reference was made to the speaker’s recent visit to the palace of the Arab pirate prince in Algiers, the like of which he had never seen else where- The ancient city contained many places of interest to the visitor, but it remained for the luxurious ex travagance of that ancient prince’s palace to show to the world something of the life led by those pirates. Also while there he was told the story of one of the martyrs who in an effort to carry the Word to these people, met a horrible death on account of refusing to embrace the Mohammedan belief, and as a result was tide hand and foot and cast alive into a block of cement and baked, the block later becoming a section of the great wall which was un der construction at that time. The Baptiam A large congregation assembled at Memorial Park on Sunday to witness the baptism of six adults in the water* of Lake Erie. The day was cold and so was the lake, but all of the candi dates seemed to delight themselves in obeying this ordinance, for all returned with a very happy smile and uttering expressions of their joy. Baseball New. Port Burwell baseball club officially opened their new ball diamond on Thursday afternoon, May ?4th, when Tillsonburg won a very closely con tested game in the Oxford-Elgin League by a score of 5-4 in a game that went an extra innings to decide the winners. Tillsonburg fans certainly support their home team and accom panied the Pan Dried* in large num bers, leaving for home at the end of the game wearing the Pan Dried smile that won’t come off. ...The first five innings were a pitcher s duel between Smith and Travis with Cloe* of Tillsonburg in the right field making some remarkable catches. Till sonburg secured the first run of the game in the third innings and added three more in the sixth when Cloes drove out a double, scoring Burnett and Corbett and later scored himself on Smith’s grounder. Port Burwell broke into the scoring column in the sixth under peculiar circumstances that netted them three runs when Todd hit a long drive into left field and the ball lodged in the crotch of a tree, al lowing Todd to get a home run. In the seventh inning Port Burwell forced another run across, tying up the score 4-4. In the eighth innings Wood re placed Smith and Sutherland replaced Travis. In the 10th innings Manager Smith of Tillsonburg introduced some clever strategy that incidentally won the game. Eichcnburg was the first batter up for Tillsonburg and got to first base on four balls. Eichenburg stole second and advanced to third on a sacrifice grounder from Burnett's bat and scored a minute later on a smashing grounder to short stop by Corbett. Port Burwell came verjr close to again evening up the score in the tenth innings- Travis struck out and Todd reached first on a hard dnye. Sutherland advanced Todd to third base on a hit grounder. It looked like another run for Burwell and Todd took a long lead from the base and was caught in a double play when Howey flied to left field ending the game. TiU- sonburg has always been a big crowd producer at all local games and this was no exception. The lineup:—Tillsonburg—Cloes, D. Smith, Alex ander, Bartram. Stilwell, Eichenburg, Burnett, Corbett.

Following the investiture of S. M. Argue, Assist. S. M. Bodsworth, T. L. Delhi, they in turn invested their Patrol Leaders, Eric Fee and T. Argue. The local Troop of Scouts were only organized in February last and have a membership of 16, all of whom have passed the tenderfoot stage, four hav ing passed the 2nd class test and all of whom have secured their uniforms. There is also in connection with the Scuots the Wolf Pack, boys of eight to twelve years of age and four teen in number. These Cubs have also practically all secured their uniforms and all hope to have done so by the last of this month. Much credit is due S. M. Argue for his successful organization and man agement of this Troop of boys, and the work of promoting the future of the Troop deserves the support and en couragement of the parents and those citizen* interested in this excellent form of training for boys, and S. M. Argue wishes to thank all who have in any way lent assistance and given en couragement. Mr. Argue has had pre vious experienco in the Scout Move ment, and is a true friend of the young boys, and it was due to this interest in their welfare that the 1st Port Burwell Troop of Boy Scouts was organized. Twenty visitors were present at the meeting from St. Thomas, representing the five St. Thoma* Troop* of Boy Scouts and their leader, S. M. Williams and several friends were also present representing the Slraffordville Troop. Following the investiture ceremony a program of speeches was enjoyed and a splendid lunch served by the local boys. An invitation was received by the Port Burwell and Straffordville Troops to take part in the scouting games program, being given by the St. Thoma* Troops on May 24th and which was accepted and where several of the Port Burwell Troop will be in vested by their Scout Master.

At 2 JO p.m.. the pupils of the three school* as sembled on the school lawn, the pro cession being formed according to the class standing, by the public school principal, H. C. Marshall The procession was headed by the 1st Port Bur well Boy Scouts, all of whom were in uniform, and the Wolf Cub Pack also in uniform, and who were in charge of the Troop Leader L. Deihl Leaving the school lawn the procession marched up Wellington to Main street, turning south, a* far as Pitt street, where they again turned march ing as far as the Pitt-Strachan street intersection leading to the Memorial Park and stopping at the flag pole at the park entrance. While the whole procession of scholar* and teachers stood at attention the Boy Scouts sal uted the flag, and directly following the salutation the scholars sang "The Union Jack” or "The Red, White and Blue.” At the conclusion of the singing the procession marched to he Memo rial Monument, where the scouts and Cubs formed a aisle through which the scholars passed, laying a bouquet of flowers on the steps of the monument as they passed, many of the flowers be ing wood violets. Following the deco ration ceremony the school sang "O Canada.” Dorothy Forsythe then recited "England's Death," and the sing ing of “The Maple Leaf Forever” completed this part of the ceremony.Rev. L. W. Deihl was then called up on to give the address of the afternoon. The speaker delivered an inspiring ad dress to the men and women of to morrow, choosing "Empire Day” as hi* subject. Mr. Deihl proceeded to ex plain the origin of the day. the vast ness of the British Empire of which we are a part, and the reason for the an nual commemoration of the birthday of the late beloved Queen Victoria. The speaker suggested that the scholars re member the splendid example set by that late Queen and to keep ever before them the Boy Scout motto: “Be Pre pared." Also to keep loyal and proud of the Empire to which we belong, ever keeping its welfare at heart and never to forget the price paid by those to whom the monument, which they had so recently decorated, had been dedicated. A word of appreciation was Sven to the teachers for arranging the rcoration ceremony and a few words to the visitor* completed the address. It was regretted that so few citizens availed themselves of the opportunity to witness this impressive ceremony, Ahich had been provided by the pupil*. Much credit is due the teacher* who so painstakingly trained and led the boys and girl* in this demonstration. The training of today will make the citizens of tomorrow, and every en couragement should be given to the teacher* who remember the*e day* and use their influence in impressing the significance of the day upon the youth ful minds, keeping in mind the spirit of the day, which sets it apart as being of more importance than an ordinary holiday. The ceremony closed with the sing ing of the National Anthem. STRAFFORDVILLE Mr. and Mrs. Jacobs and several friends of Hamilton and Winona spent a few days with their friends. Mr. and. Mr*. L.

Lady Hilda hastily pot on a large dark which shrouded her figure, and Jent out to the Lady's Walk. She could reach it by the staircase which from her own fgivate suite of room*. In the distance she saw the taU figure of Mr. Fulton coming quickly toward her. -|t is sorely against my will that I am here," she began; "but you ask me to come tor my mother’s sak. Tell me what you have to say.” -.Much, he replied, "that can not be hastily uttered. Lady Hilda, do not fear me. Look at my face. Have I the appearance of a man who sought thi* interview for any foolish, vain reason of his own?" She looked at him; there was a faint gleam of light coming from the moon- |t sky, and by it she saw that the handw-me face, usually so careless and pv. was sad and full of deep emotion. Her calm eyes dwelt upon it. but they read nothing their. "You mutt trust me. he said: "you ciaht trust me with your life. Let u* walk down the path; you will be {C!<! if you remain standing." They then yent down the broad path together. "My time is precious.” said Lady Hilda, coldly. "I run great risks by remaining here.' "1 know it he replied. “I ask you to come, for your mother’s sake. Do you know who she was, and what was her story?" "I know it all." said the young girl, sadly. "My mother's fate has clouded my life." Thank Heaven, I am spared that long explanation,” he replied. "I half feared >ou might still believe you were Lady Hutton’s daughter." "I never thought that,” she replied; "and one must not ever so lightly blame the dead; but I wish I had been left to share my mother's fate, I should have brightened her life, and have been saved all the sorrow and slame of feeling myself half an im- It was done for the best.” he said. “I suppose so." she replied; "but this i> not what you, wanted me for.

My father's name brings no music to my ears. Per haps before now he has met my mother and rendered her justice." She raised her fair, calm face to the night skies as she spoke, and Paul Fulton stood abashed and humble be fore the serene innocence and dignity of his child. “Hilda." he said, "has it never struck she replied, bitterly.

But we must not linger. What more have you to say?" . "Nothing," he replied. "You know I leave her eearly in the morning. I shall never return, Hilda. We must remain as strangers, and do not forget lhat you hold my life in your hands. I shall avoid you—it will be less pain ful than seeing you, and not daring to claim you as my child. Are wou will ing?" "Yes." she replied, in the same hope less tone, "it will be best so; only promise me one thing—if I die first, you will tell the whole truth to my husband; he will never betray you." He promised without the least in tention of ever keeping his word, and the yturned toward the house."Hilda,” said Paul Fulton, “you are my own child. Let me hear my name once. Say ‘God b(e*s you, father,' before we part.” She turned her Kir, sad face to him, and he never forgot it as he saw it then. The breath of the summer wind was not more sweet and faint than the voice that said, "God bless you. father! Good-bye!" "If I had kept htr with me," said Paul Fulton, as through the mist of warm tears he watched Lady Hilda enter the house, "I should have been a different man." That night, while darkness and silence fell upon the old castle, there was one beneath its roof who seemed to die a living death. That night a fair young face lost its radiance and youth; a pure, loving heart rebelled wildly against dark, stern fate; a golden head tossed wearily to and fro; and in the darkness there came to her agan htosc solemn, terrible words. "1 visit the sins of the fathers upon the children.” softening touched i The young, beautiful, and beloved false, sentimental Fulton. more her dying mother had predicted and feared had come to her. *?Vc 1 done?" »he “'<1. wildly, looking up to the still serene heavens.

Lady .................................- - - - - Bayneham could not sleep, for she was thinking. She knew the world well; its strange ways were old legends to her. She had heard many stories where a hand some. accomplished man of the world prided himself upon winning the liking of a beautiful young wife. The whole artillery of flirtation was a well-known business to Lady Bayneham. Her son's wife was very lovely, and no fairer face had ever shone in those old halls; she was also very young and child like; often enough had the countess smiled-at her naive remarks, for the world was a scaled book to her. She was innocent guileless and unsuspic ious as a child. Mr. Fulton was a man of the world; handsome and fascinat ing; old, it is true, but with a charm and grace of manner more winning even than the freshness of youth. She suspected nothing serious. He dared not attempt to make love to her son s wife under her son's roof; but, in all probability he had a mused himsel: by trying to get up a sentimental friend ship with her. How else account for those notes? And she was so young and so inexperienced, it was imposs ible to guess what she would do. If a note had been clandestinely slipp ed into Lady Bayneham’* hand, she would calmly and quietly have torn it to pieces before the writer’s face, without the trouble of words. She had seen how Hilda blushed and trembled when she received the note; and brilliant, experienced woman of the world felt something like pity for the young novice."1 have no doubht,” said Lady Bayneham to herself, "that she is dreadfully puxried what to do about the matter.

"A gentleman!" repeated his un happy daughter, with an infliction of corn in her voice that she could not ontrol. "Do gentlemen usually trample pon the heart that loves them best, nd jo about the world under a false- panic—a living lie?" He bit his lips, listening to her in- ignant words. "Hilda.” he said, "do not rouse alt hat is bad in me. I wronged your pother; I rejaid her love with ingrati- udc; I spurned her from my door, and roke her heart.

She had never thought of him until the day he touched her golden head with his bps. and looked so sadly upon her.

She turned and looked at Irirqi; coldly and calmly her eyes rest ed on his agitated face, and by the faint light of the moonbeams she re- seblcd a spirit more than any living being.

Mr. Ful ton. in accordance with his arrange ments on the previous evening, left while the morning was still dawning. Barbara Earle had taken breakfast, and gone out into the grounds. Lady Hilda was in her room. Hence the countess had a clear field; and when her son entered, she went into action at once. Whh her second cup of tea she commenced a preamble. "I think you know me too well. Claude, ever to suspect that 1 could be capable of any impertenance or in terference; is it not so?" The earl assured his mother that she possessed all the cardinal virtures, and had no faults. continued the lady. "I have a sincere liking affection for your beautiful wife; but she is very young, and knows noth ing of the world. She is innocent and simple that I mention to you a circumstance I have observed, which in another would not have excited my attention.” "What has Hilda been doing?” ask ed Lord Bayneham, with a smile; 'has she broken some terrible severe law of ctiuucttc?” "No," replied the countess; "Lady Hilda's manner is perfect. It is not that, but our late visitor, Mr. Fulton, was a very handsome man, and one who could fascinate where he chose." "Well and what can that possibly have to do with Hilda's shortcomings?" demanded Lord Bayneham. quickly. "If you win allow me time, Claude. I can explain," said the countess, with dignity. "On the first evening of his arrival we all remarked how much he seemed struck with Hilda. Mind. I insinuate nothing against him; he’is only a man of the world; but I believe he has been trying to get up a sentimental friend ship with her.” What makes you think so?” asked the young carl, indifferently,” for he saw nothing remarkable in anyone ad miring his wife.“I notice a little circumstance that struck me rather unpleasantly, replied Lady Bayneham. "1 saw him in two occasions slip a note in her hand." “You must have been mistaken, mother." said her son, quickly, his face flushing hotly. "My wife would never receive a letter from anyone." "It is true," continued tlje countess; "I do qot say there was anything in them; for, knowing Hilda to be one of the purest as she is one of the loveliest ol women. I am sure there could be nothing wrong about it. I would speak to her myself, but it is a delicate matter to interfere with; but with a few well-chosen words you can put her on her guard; she is very young and inexperienced.” "You arc very kind, mother," said laird Bayneham, rising hastily; "but I can not understand how a note could have nothing in it. I must see Hilda and ask her about it.” "Do not be rash or foolish. Claude," said his mother; "there is no neces sity for any scenes or any emotion. Speak to your wife quietly for perhaps there is nothing in it. Hilda never ever secs any one but you. Do not 10 CENTS force me to regret that I have treated you like a sensible man." “I must have it explained." Lord Bayneham, quietly but firmly; "1 aust sec those notes, or know what hey were about. None shall cither in sult or act impertinently to my wife.” “I do not think any one will ever try,” said lady Bayneham; "be prud ent and sensible, Claude. Suppose, after all, there was nothing on the paper but the name of a book or a song?” "Tell me how .they were given and." he said, 'and 1 can judge for myself." Lady Bayneham. who began to re pent of her undertaking, then told him of the two little scenes she had witnscssed. and his face grew dark. “If that man dared write nonsense to my wife, I would follow him to London and thrash him I" he cried. "I can see how it is Hilda did not tell me; she was afraid I should quarrel with said "Nothing of the kind." said Lady Bayneham. trying to allay the tempest she had aroused. "She very likely never thought of naming it at all; she can not run to you every time any one either speaks or writes to her.” "Then why have you named it?" asked Lord Bayneham, impatiently. "If there is nothing wrong, extraor dinary, impro|»cr, wonderful, or any thing else in it. why did you come to " Claude. I quite despair of you." said the countcss, haughtily. " I have explained my motives. \oir wife is young, beautiful and untrained in the world's ways; it is your place to warn her, and sec that her very innocence «nd simplicity do not cause her to act imprudently." Lord Bayneham sighed; he was not quite clear as to what hi* mother really meant—He saw one thing plainly: she was not actuated by any unkind feei ng toward Hilda; but. before he had time to reply, Barbara entered, her face glowing with exercise, and her hands filled with choice fern leaves. "See. aunt," she said, touching Lady Bayneham'* face with her fresh red ips. "I have found all these treasures? they will make your collection com plete. Good-morning. Claude; you ook—well, not one half as bright as the morning." For the first time she noticed the un easy expression of both faces. “I am sorry to here Hilda is not well this morning." she continued. "Pauline tells me she has not left her room; so I will go and see her." "If you are not otherwise engaged.. Claude," said Lady Bayneham. as Misa Earle quitted the room, "perhaps you would go with me around the shrub bery. I should like a short walk before the heat of the day comes on." “I am quite at your service, mother," he replied, listlessly, longing to be with Hilda, and read, for his own satisfac tion, the truth in her beautiful eyes. Lady Bayneham wished sometime to elapse before her son saw his wife, re solving to give a change thoughts and that morning fatal. “Let u» go down the Lady's Walk.' she said, taking her son’* arm. like the quiet shade."

These are the performance quali ties assured by the new, larger, high compression engine of the new Oldsmobile. Thia great new power plant repre sents yeara of work and over a million miles of testing on the part of Oldsmobile engineers. They introduced a cylindei special General Motors Research design that permits high compres sion with, ordinary fuels. They ribbed the crankcase and cylinder block horizontally and Grarrtf Uttrf hftml A’ra . vertically to prevent distortion and maintain accurate bearing alignment. They added such feature, of ad vanced engineering a, crankcase ventilation, controlled cooling, pressure lubrication, oil filter, air cleaner, fuel pump, full automatic spark and thermostatic charging control. Then to provide fine car perform ance to an even more marked degree, they devised a new method of rubber mounting for the engine — new method, of silencing the chassis and the interiors of the smart new Fisher bodies.

The morning air was soft and clear, the birds sang sweetly, the flowers bloomed, and all nature was smiling and gay. As they drew near the end of lhe walk Lord Bayneham saw something shining and glittering in the long thick grass. “What have we here?" he said, stooping.for the shining prize. He nearly dropped it again, in. uncontroll able astonishment. It was his wife’s bracelet, the one he had seen upon her arm the night before, and had spoken to his mother about: it was the very same; there were the costly pearls and the pale pure gold, with his ini tials and those of his wife’s entwined. “Hilda’s bracelet I" cried Lady Bayneham. in sheer wonder; “why. how did that come here ? How careless to drop,a valuable piece of jewelry like that! Is it injured?" she continu ed, for her son did not speak. “How strange hat it should be here I" she said, taking it from his hand. “Why, Claude, Hilda wore his last evening; 1 saw it on her arm when you bade her good-night. How came it here?" No reply came from the young earl; but a strange dark look gathered over his handsome face, marring its beauty with passion. “She must have been out this corn ing." said Lady Bayneham; “yet Paul ine said she had not quitted her room. Can their have been robbery, Claude?” “We must inquire,’’ said Lord Baneham sternly. “This bracelet was on my wife’s arm when I bade her good-night; this morning I find it here; who has dropped it?" For a moment the mother and son looked steadily at each other; then Lord Bayneham turned to re-enter the house. In the hall they met Lady Hilda's maid—pretty, smiling Pauline —who dropped her most coquettish courtesy before the young earl. "Is Lady Hilda down yet?” asked the countess. "My lady has been indisposed all morning,” replied the maid; “she has not vet left her room.” "Has she not been in the park?" asked Lady Bayneham. quickly. "My lady is ill," said Pauline again, with a look of astonishment, “and has not yet left her room.” "Hush, mother," said the earl, when the maid had passed on. "Ask no questions from servants. Hilda will explain it, and we shall find no mys tery after all. If she is dressed we will go to her room.” “Perhaps you had better go alone,” said Lady Bayneham; “if there has been no robbery it is all right Since Lady Rushe's jwel robbery I have always been nervous."“I prefer your accompanying me. mother, if you will." said Lord Bayneham; "in your eyes I read a half doubt pf my wife. Come with me, that I may show you how groundless it is." They went toether up the broad staircase and through the corridor to the door of Lady Hilda's room. A sweet, low voice, that expressed both pain and fatigue, bade them enter. Lidy Hilda had risen and was sitting in her little boudoir, the untasted breakfast on a table by her side. Lord Bayneham forgot even his errand when he saw her pale face and dim Constipated ? Tired Out ?

Do you want me for anything?" she asked." or is this a morning call?" She tried to smile, but Lord Baync- ham saw her pale lips tremble; then he remembered his errand. "We have been puzzled," he re plied. with a smile. I have been for a walk with my mother this morning— quite a good boy you, you see. Last night, when I left you. you wore this bracelet; it was fastened on your arm. and this morning I found it in the Lady’s Walk, and you have not quit ted your room. How came it there, Hilda?” He held it out as he spoke, and a long low cry came from her lips. ’’Look I" cried Lady Bayneham, and Claude, springing forward, caught his wife as she was falling, pale and sense less. to the ground “There is your answer," said the dig nified countess, as she rang the bell. “Take care, Claude. It seems to me that there is a dark shadow hanging over our house. Why should she faint?" There was nothing so alarm ing in your words." CHAPTER XXVIII_______ When Lady Hilda opened her eyes and saw her husband * bending over her, a cry of fear and terror escaped her lips. The face that she had never seen stern or angry before, was both now; there was no smile on his lips, such as he was wont to greet her with. Anxiety and sorrow, mingled with impatience, darkened his brow. Her illness alarmed him; he could not un derstand it. “Did I frighten you, Hilda?" he whispered, gently. "How your hands tremble! Surely, you are not afraid of me. I have never been angry with you love; only—I don't understand." She tried to answer him, but her overwrought nerves gave way, and she wept passionately, bitterly, as one who had no hope. He soothed her with gente words, such as one used to a grieved child. Lady Bayneham quitt ed the room; tears and caresss were not in her line. “You shall not be teased any more, just now." cried Lord Bayneham. "You have not strength to tell me any thing. Lie down again, and try to sleep; it grieves me sorely to see that face.” Her passionate weeping was abated; she lay passive and still, listening to his voice with a sick feeling of despair. Lord Bayneham gave Pauline Strick injunctions that her lady was not to be disturbed: he then left her, hoping .he would sleep. His mother anxiously awaited him. and asked, hastily. “What is it, Claude? Why was Hilda so frighten- cd ? ' "She is very ill," he replied, sadly, "and nervous, not frightened, mother. What can she have to fear? I was too abrupt." "Did she tell you how the bracelet caine to be lying In the Lady's Walk?” asked the countess. “No," replied her son; "she seem ed so ill and unlike herself that I did not mention it. I am sure it is all rqfht, mother." he continued, seeing the expression of her face; "we shall find it no mystery after all. My wife can make >H clear in a few words." Despite his assertion, the morning wore on heavily for Lord Bayneham. Two things weighed upon his inind— the notes he had heard his wife re ceived. and the fact of finding her bracelet in the Lady's Walk. It might be all nonsense—the notes nothing more than a memorandum; but the bracelet. There he paused: their were but two solutions to the mystery cither she. his sweet and gentle young wife, had been there— for what motive he could not imagine—or some one had carried from the room. Either alternative he felt to be unpleasant. StiU he was far from being of a sus picious nature, and would have rested perfectly satisfied with one word of excuse but for the deadly fear which blanched his wife’s face when she saw the bracelet in his hand. There was no explanation for that; to feel fear she must be conscious of wrong; yet what wrong could he imanginc her cap able of—that gentle, guileless girl, whose mind and soul was as pure as an unstained lily? He tried to make himself feel sure that Hilda would clear away all the unpleasant mystery by a few simple words. Twice he went to the door of her room, and heard with half impatient satisfaction that she was still slept; and it was long after mid day when Pauline told him her lady was awake, but seemed very ill. He looked with unutterable astonishment upon the change in the fair young face, wrought in those few hours. Could it be merely illness or fatigue that had blanched even the lips, and darkened the violet eyes with so deep a shadow? Was it illness that caused her to clasp her hands when she saw him, as one does who prays in mortal agony? “Hilda." he said, "you-look as though you suffered terribly. What is it? No trouble can have come to you with out my knowing it. What makes you ill? Why do you look so strangely at me? What has come between us?” He waited, but she spoke not a word “You would never keep a secret from me, I know," he continued, "or I should fancy that something terrible weighed upon your mind. Do not look so sad. Raise your eyes to mine, love, and if aught troubles you tell me—let me share it." He clasped one arm around her, and drew her golden head close to him. “Has any one insulted or annoyed you?” he asked, gently. “No," she replied—“what could make you think of such a thing?" “Are you sure. Hilda." he asked, "that you have not been subject to annoyance from any of our guests?" “No." she said, again; but he saw her face flush with pain. “Why do you ask me so strange a question, Claude?""My mother thought that on two occasions Mr. Fulton had annoyed Eby slipping nonsensical little notes . your hand." he repeated. “Is it true. Hilda?" He saw her pause before replying to his question. "It is true he gave me two little notes." she said, in a faltering voice, "but they did not cause me any an noyance, Claude.” "May I see them?" be asked. "They are destroyed." she answered, in the same low, constrainted voice. “Will you tell me their contents?" he asked again. "I can not!" she gasped. He knew not what to say; never once had the eyes wherein truth and love shone so brightly been raised to his. The long dark lashes drooped on the white cheek, and she spoke as one under compulsion. “Perhaps," he said, "it was nothing that concerned you—some little affair of his own. Was it so?" She answered not a word, and Lord Bayneham continued. "I am no jealous husband, Hilda, in terfering and prying into your con cerns. Since we have been married I have never sought to know anything of your letters. I have trusted you implicitly in all things, as real and loyal men do trust. 1 should not in- GOOD ADVICE FROM MOTHER OF SEVEN Recommends Lydia E.

We should have but one mind and one heart between us. You have no right to withhold anything from me. My idea of married life is one of perfect confidence, trust, and unity. 1 can not imagine separate interests." He saw a look of intense pain steal over the gentle face, but she made no effort to answer him. T suppose it is useless for me to repeat my wish," he added. ”1 can not force your confidence, if you will not give it to me. I must be content to know there are depths in my wife’s heart hidden from me." Lady Hilda shuddered as she re membered what those depths were. He noted her gesture, and said. "I am not angry. Hilda; I am grieved, wounded, more deeply than I can tell you. What secret can my little wife keeping from me?She made some slight movement though longing to throw herself hts feet and Uli him. On her lips lhe words trembled, am an impostor—a convict’s daughter. I have no right to be here—send me away." Once she began them, but the sound of her own voice frightened her. and she stopped—with a scared, wild look on her pale face that grieved and amazed her husband. Lord Bayneham sat for some minutes in silence, gazing wistfully at the beautiful trembling girl by hi* side. He was sadly grieved. His young wifa had ever seemed to him pure, gentle, and truthful as a child. Now. with a woman's sorrow on her brow, with her averted eyes and trembling words, she was like a stran ger to him; and it was with a deep sigh at the unpleasant task before him, that he recommenced his inquiries. dl»mJ»«d* that subject, then Hilda—the first secret ever kept between us," said he. “Now explain tor me this mystery—how came your bracelet, the one you should have valu- ’ ,h' Then the calm of that sorrowful young face was broken; a quiver of P*m passed over each feature; a look of despair shadowed the violet eyes; but Lady Hilda allowed the anxious, eager man to repeat his question be fore she seemed to understand it Sparc me. Claude," she said, holding out her hands to him. “Spare you. Hilda he cried, “what can you mean?—spare you! What have I ever done that you should speak so to me? Would I not spare you every sorrow if I could? I only ask to shield you from all care, to make you happy, and make you love me as I love you. What am I to spare you?" "Any questions." she replied, weep ing bitterly, "I can not answer them, and they torture me." ~^ou can not think they are pleasaat for me he said. "Hilda, my mother was with me when I found that brace let. I read a doubht of you in her eyes; it made me indignant. I can not explain it.

Am I not quite right in saying that you wore that bracelet on your arm when I bade you good-night last evening? It was there, was it not?" "Yes," she cried despairingly, "it was there.” “And the first thing this morning I found it in the Lady's Walk.” he continued; “yet you have never left your room.

"More mysteries I" he said, bitterly. • ou acknowledge, then, you could explain it if you would, but will not.” Lady Hilda bowed her head, and he turned from the sight of that white, despairing face. "Are you trying to shield any one who has robbed you?" he asked, his eyes growing bright at the thought. No, she replied, “no one has tried to rob me. “Did you drop the bracelet your self?" he inquired. Do not ask me.

Hi-1 could not. in his wildest dreams imagine her capable of even an im prudence; and he wondered. until wonder became pain, what she was keeping from him. He did not see how it was possible for luidy Hilda to have any secrets; the simple story oi her life was an open book in which he had read every charming, innocent page. r\s for any’ love nonsense, he would have sooner suspected a bright winged angel of mercy than his pure, loving gentle wife. He would have dismissed the whole affair as nonsense, but for her own words—her ouiNad- mission, that she had a secret whtth she could not share with him. He stood in the library; a ma*» of paper* lay in'a confused heap upon the table, all waiting hi* attention, but he had none to spare for them.
