She alarmed the neighbors who were soon oo the scene, but were unable to save any of the furniture Mr. Cain was confined to the house with Alness, and he was hurried to the Soldiers’ Memorial Hospital where he now remains for treatment Mrs. Cain and babe Were given shelter at the home of Mr. A.

The town council >-as in a generous mood at its inaugural meeting, and some of the town‘officials were given boosts to their salaries. Generally speaking public officers are not any too well paid for the work they are obliged to do. and in this case verv little fault can be found with the increases. Town Clerk Raynes is now entering upon his fortieth year of ser­ vice. and for the past year has only been receiving $700 00 of a salary. This year it was increased to $90000, which, for the amount of work involv­ ed and the responsibilities connected with the office, docs not bring it up to a princely amount, to say the least, in the case of Chief Carter, his salary has been increased to $1500.00. and he is to provide h»' own uniform. This is also a responsible office, with long hour* of duty, and the increase does not bring his salary to an extravagant amount. He is an efficient officerrand a* such should receive at least a liv­ able salary. —Boys' fine wool sweaters with three-button, V neck and roll collar, navy, sand, brown, grey.

He did, however, wish to ex­ press is sinccee thanks to the electors for the magnificent vote they had given'him at the recent election. He looked upon it a* an expression of ap­ proval of hi* work of the past two years. He welcomed the member* of the old councA as well a* those newly elected, and expressed the hope that they would have a profitable and pleas­ ant year. He was of the opinion that the assessment of the town should be revised. There were many inequalities that should be righted, the assessment of the past year* having been made in a more or les* haphazard manner. This matter should be given serious consid­ eration. If property was assessed at its full value more money would be re­ceived and the tax rate lowered. He also advocated economy in permwient improvements, and the keeping down of expenses, in order to maintain alow rate of taxation. He was of the opin­ ion that curb gas pump* should be taxed, which he did not think would be objected to by the owner*. The town treasurer reported that in hi* statement for 1928 there was an overdraft at the bank to the amount of $352.13. and an outstanding cheque of $30.80. making a total overdraft of $29213 The Hydro-Electric Commis­ sion faDeS to make payment of deben­ture loan on by-law No 650. due each K.r on Dec. 31. amounting to $481.40. ducting from this the overdraft of $29213 gives the council a surplus of $18927 with which to commence the business of 1929.The town treasurer asked the coun­cil to consider an-advancc in his salary to the amount of $50 a month.

Superintendent of Algonquin Park, which, to my notion, is one of the most insulting articles I ever read. I say this chiefly because he calls the riling generation of Ontario sportsmen two-legged wolves and rocs on to say that "he will prove it." and to me he proved nothing. Mr. Millar started his article in the following way: “Hold on. sportsmen, hold on I Don't get the buck fever because the pessim­ists and would-be naturalists are por­ traying drcams that the wolves have killed all the deer in the Province. That is ' so If you would know the truth, it .» the “were wolves." arm­ ed with automatic and repealing rifles, who are the real exterminators and it is my purpose to prove it." Now. to begin with.

Bless our advancing education, for. if a man were to advocate such cold-blooded murder today, he would be hissed out of the country. But don’t any of you accused wolves worry—see what Mr Millar says about one man. Yes. I am the very man who says that 90 or 95 [»er cent of the deer born in Ontario Have been eaten up by wolves. In the same article I also said that my chil­ dren’s children are going to see more deer in Ontario than I have ever seen And lielieve me. dear reader.

Just wouldn't that make one laugh! The most successful demonstration of bringing back our game we have in America is in the State of Pennsyl­ vania. where in 1904 there was practi­ cally nothing only the breeding stock. These wise game propagators had lib­ erated and in 1907 they killed 200 bucks, and in 1926 they killed nearly 13,000, and in 1927 they killed over 14,000, and this year, as their flock has increased from 2,51X1 in 1907 to over 700,000, they arc compelled to go in and shoot the does. They have Increas­ ed to this great number, shooting being allowed each year. But, remember, there are no wolves in Pennsylvania. These men. knowing bear wouldn’t decrease the deer, wisely liberated bear same time as the deer were liberated and they be.amc so thick that there were six hundred hear killed in Pennsl- vania in 1926. Thus this is absolute proof that bear don't decrease the deer It is the wolf, because, as I deserve to be called "howling calam­ ity?" Now. if you figure it out. you will find that man was not in the woods hunting seventy-five hours all told, while the devilish timber wolf is hunt­ ing twenty-four hours a day for three hundred and sixty-five days in the year. Our deputy minister, Mr. Mc­ Donald. kindly supplied me with the following deer license quotation, and here they are: “In 1927 our department issued 22,179 deer licenses.” Now, Mr. Millar. I have got two more statements for you tn analyse: First, if these 22.000 licensed hunters were armed with machine guns and hunted in our vast Ontario wilds from October 1st to January 1st, they alone could not keep the deer from increas­ing. Why? Because each one has over fifteen and possibly twenty square miles of the best deer breeding grounds in America to control Re­member the little insignificant piece of wilds where the deer are partly settled, that lies between Toronto. North Bay and Sudbury, is not ten per cent, of our Wall Street heritage that is prae- AN OVERCOAT OPPORTUNITY WINTRY BLASTS COINCIDE WITH OUR ANNUAL JANUARY CLEARANCE OF MEN’S AND BOYS* OVERCOATS.

Remember, deer are only native Amer­ ican sheep and the wolf is the native sheep dog and ha* the same killing effect on these wild sheep as the do­ mestic sheep dog has on our domestic sheep.Mr Millar states that in "1865 in Vermont, which was settled one hun­dred yeai* bcfoic Ontario, thc deer were gone and deer were imported and liberated and they multiplied in this thickly (topulafed and settled state, so that, during the last twenty years there hav been lawfully killed 50) to 4.000 deer ” All I have to say is that this is prosit to my argument—that it is not humanity reducing the deer so fast, but the wolf, because in Vermont there are no wolves But this is another joke, taking ut back to 1865 Why. ble** ysxir dear life, that is the year I was born' Who in thc name of Rip Van Winkle wants to stand on a runway sixty-three year* to get a *hot at a deer?

If Algon­ quin Park contains 50u) square miles, how many deer should it produce? But bear in mind Algonquin Park at this rate, is not one-sixtieth part of the vast deer grounds of our Ontario. From Ottawa to Manitoba boundary line, the Canadian Pacific Railway gives us over 1200 miles, and from Toronto the Canadian National Rail­ way gives us 450 miles north to Coch­ rane Then it is still 200 mile* to James Bay Now. who will deny but what we have over 350,000 square mile* of wild territory, and I know from per­ sonal knowledge that twenty-five years ago it was partly stocked with deer right from the Quebec boundary line to Fort William, and in 1921 I saw deer along thc Canadian National Railway between Cochrane and Hearst, and the encouraging fact of it all is that On­tario is the most healthy adaptable •leer country in North America. In Florida it is quite a large buck that weighs 125 pounds; in Pennsylvania the adult buck* only average 130 pounds, but in Northern' Ontario I have seen several that weighed over 250 pounds. Now. Mr Millar, you caD us hunters “calamity howlers.’’ but remember we arc only howling with our voices and pen-points, but the same government that employs you is howling in action, for ten years ago they permitted'us to MT two deer for two dollar*, one dol­lar each, but n«>w they chatve u» four dollars to •hoot one deer That is pro- aiding you see this one deer to shout But plea<e charge your mefoory with thn fact especially when you have a loaded rifle m your hands You arc received a number of letters requesting that I advocate salary paid wolf hunt­ ers to kill the wolves in Ontario So far I have refrained from answering such requests, but now when the luper- intendent of our largest provincial park comes right out and calls our rising generation of Canadian-born manhood “howling calamity," this remove! the barriers and breaks the chains from my conscience and gives tne perfect liberty to say that the total failure to control the wolves in Algonquin Park by hiring men by day, week, month or year system speaks for itself. Now 1 am not saying the other fellow is not as honest as I am. but men are few and far between that will work and study as hard fur the government as they will for themselves Moreover, what suc­cessful business nun will hire work done by thc month when he can have the same work done by the piece ' The bounty system pays a man lor wba: he MEN’S BLUE ULSTERS In a smart loose back model so popular this season —only 5 left.

As relief by this procedure cannot be expected for several years the Department has been working upon treatments of the crop that offer hope in controlling rust. The bulletin shows an aeroplane in operation spreading sulphur across a wheat field as a means of defeating the rust attack in its destructive work. This bulletin, which is available at the Publications Branch of the Depart­ ment of Agriculture, Ottawa. rec­ ommends to those who find that they can no longer grow some of the older varieties of wheat with profit because of rust, to make a trial of some earlier varieties that may be recoenmended to them by their nearest Experimental Farm or Agricultural College.

The price of furs started soarin in ItOt and kept on go­ ing right up. Think of it! Mink that sold for one dollar going up to ten and twenty dollars. Fisher* that sold for three or four going to as high as one hundred and twenty-five dollars. in fact, all fur-bearing animals soared in proportion and thc wolf -hunter* let thc wolf go because they could make ten dollar* to one hunting fur*.

Algonquin Park is the I only park I ever heard of where wolves I are allowed to roam at large, and H i* the least successful of any park I know of I Is there any just reason why Algon­ quin Park should not produce an over­flow of ten deer to the square mile, the same as Rondeau Paik is doing’ In the State of Pennsylvania there are 9.000.000 people on less than 45.000 square miles—over three times On­tario's population, on less than one- tenth of .Ontario's territory In 1907 Pennsylvania had 2,500 deer, in 1928 it has over 700.000 and shooting allowed each year. Of course there are no wolves in Pennsylvania and deer have become so extremely abundant that this year they have got to kill the bucks and does alike in order to reduce their herd In 1907 they shut 20 bucks and ha«e been killing deer every fall since Now I ask all readers to please do your own thinking while you look at these figures, which arc the ex­ act quotation from Rondeau Park in Ontario and the Government figures for the State of Pennsylvania Neither has a fence around same, any more than Algonquin Park has The following is the list of number of deer killed in Rondeau Park from 1916 to 1927 inclusive: 3916—deer killed 1917— deer killed1918— decr'killcd 1919— deer 1920— deer 1921— deer1922— deer 1923— deer 1924— deer killed 1925— deer killed 1926— deer killed1927— deer killed As I have said, there are only eight square miles at Rondeau park, 15% Off All Stanfield*. ander* wwar, combination or two-piece.

The result of the efforts has been set forth in a lengthy report, which say* in part: "The method consists of double inoculation. The first inoc­ ulation is made with a vacine which is, tn fact, the inactivated virus of dis­temper. The second is made, after an ntcrval of about 10 days, with an at­ tempted strain of living viru* The dose of the living viru* is a hundred­fold that which would infect a dog not ircviously treated with the vaccine, but as a rule it is followed by nothing more than a trivial and transient dis­turbance of the health; often no de­ parture from the normal can be de­tected. Dog* which have undergone thi* double inoculation have proven completely resistant to the disease thereafter, whether exposed to infec­tion by being placed in dose contact with animal* suffering from the disease or by the administration of infective material."Although the serum used has not xen manufactured in large quantities, iccauic, of necessity, great care mint be taken in its manufacture, the dis­ coverer* have offered the process free to any reliable chemical laboratory for reasonable exploitation.

As a help in going onward, we have available the staff of God’s promises, including such a promise as this:" I will go before thee and make the crooked places straight."

Councillor Crandall introduced a by­law to remunerate members of the council for attendance at regular meet- 7.70 20 52 200 5.04 Health Service of the Canadian Medi­cal Association At the beginning of each year, it is customary, in many fields of human endeavor, to review the twelve months which have passed to take stock, as it were, and to consider whether or not the year has been a profitable one It is upon the successes and failures of the past years we base our plans for the future. It is.therelore, rather an appropriate time for us to review the health con­ ditions of our families as they were during the past year. First of all. we should consider whether or not we have taken those steps which would protect us from certain diseases. Vac­ cination does prevent smallpox. Have you allowed yourself or your children to be exposed to this disease through failure to use vaccination as a means of protection? Diphtheria can be pre­ vented by diphtheria immunization. Have you allowed this disease to con­tinue as a menace to the very lives of your children by your failure to have them immunised? .Safe water and pure milk are funda­ mental needs. Contaminated water and dirty milk are still the cause of much sickness and many deaths.

AXE AND SAW HANDLES SAW SETS AXE STONES, ETC. Councillor Crandall, in introducing the bylaw, said that he would not have been in favor of such a bylaw until after the municipal elections when they found it difficult to get candidates for the council. He thought that if some inducement were offered it would not be difficult to get men to fill the position.Deputy-Reeve Lambdcn agreed that the councillors should be paid for tbeir services, but inasmuch as it would not affect the situation this year he thought the bylaw should be laid over for the present and the proposition (discussed at the nomination meeting and give the ratepayers an opportunity of expressing their views.Reeve Eyre said that if he had not been elected this year he would have agitated for payment for councillors services Ingersoll is taking the mat ter up at their inaugural meeting, in­troduced by an ex-member of the I council. . i Councillors Young. Darrow. Friend land Pr.ddle expressed themselves as favorable to the bylaw, and believed that if it passed it would have the I effect of bringing out good men for the positions.Councillor Gibson wanted more time to consider the question before giving his decision.Mayor Weston also wished to re­ serve his decision till later. The intro- I duction of the bylaw does not commit the council to anything.The bylaw was introduced and given its first and second readings and coun­cil went into committee of the whole Mayor Weston expressed his strong opposition to the bylaw. Had he con­templated such g^move he would have said so at the nomination meeting. He did not agree with the previous speak­ ers that remuneration would bring for­ward better candidates. The reason that men do not come forward u.that they do not like to be criticised. How­ ever, he believed that, though there was more or less criticism the public appreciated the work of the council­lors. He would hesitate to sign such a bylaw unless compelled by statute to do sa.Councillor Gibson was also opposed to the bylaw. He would prefer to sit in the council without remuneration.The blank in the by-law was filled in with the sum of $SJ» for each regular meeting attended, and the committee rose and reported accordingly.The motion for its third reading was with the dangers of impure water and milk hanging over you?Have you given attention to your home ? Are your windows screened I to keep out flies?.Do the windows I open to allow for proper ventilation? Doc* the sunshine get into your rooths?

Ex-Commissioner Pitcher caused old troubles to break out again At the inaugural meeting, the newly elected board undid much that last year's commission had done. The by­law which was passed last year ap­ pointing a new superintendent and secretary was rescinded at once bv the new commisioners, together with an agreement, effective for two years, which had been made with these two new employees.The attempt to collect light accounts (ion, who had been given free light in return for their services, a practice declared illegal by the Ontario Com­ mission. was dropped by the new com­mission, Ex-Commissioners Fitchcr and Scarls were ordered reimbursed for the accounts which they had paid in 1927 This action, however, will have to be ratified by the provincial body, and it was decided that the whole commission will go to Toronto to take the matter up with the Hydro- Electric Power Commissions.Reeve Arden Cameron was elected chairman for the year 1929.

Algonquin Park pro­ducing deer, where there are wcjvet. expect big enc _ and remember men by the kind thing* they do and My. Mr. Millar, you said one of the kindest thing. I ever mw fa print, and I want to remember you by it. You said, "We need a Mose* to lead us." I agree with you and will back you up fa every syllable of that loving statement. But, let me add that we already have . our Moses in our I Charlie McCrae, and if the sportsmed of Ontario will get behind him in the Mme manner as the men interested fa development of mineral wealth did, we can have Ontario perfectly alive with game in ten years and an unlimited amount of money rolling in on rubber tire*.Mr. Millar, it is not a case of what we can have, but a case of what will we have. There is absolutely no reason why the srilds of Ontario should not produce an overflow from five to ten deer persquarc mifa. Therefore, I My to the sportsmen of Ontario, as I have said before, let us all get together in one harmonious body and cease fishing on the ^Tong'side of the boat and cast our nets to the right, and as soon as the appointed chairman has called the meeting to order, kt the first order of business-be that all stand with bowed head* while aome reverend gentleman ask* the blessing and assistance of God Almighty.The kadfag couscrvauon association of the United States today to the Isaak Walton League, They have kindly respected my grey hair* by mak- fag me a oatsosuf director of th« league, a* well as an honorary member it i. to ours. The government officials of Minnesota tell me that their lakes bring them more money per square mile than their cultivated soil does. What about our more superior and greater lakes in Ontario? Moreover. I can assure you from personal knowl­edge that the sportsmen's eyes of eastern North America arc focussed on the vast playgrounds of Ontario, and if we can only get our government officials to see the real value, com­ mercial value of the above-mentioned grounds, then I know there would be something doing. Oh. if we could odly persuade them to put a wolf and deer proof fence around two plots, My of five square miles each, then liberate ten doe* and five bocks in each plot and liberate one pair of wolves In on^ plot and none in the other and watch results. Mr. Millar, a. far as I am concerned, our trifling friction is a thing of the past, and if you will come to my home th< last week of this March we will have an hour’s heart to heart vi.it. I I will introduce you to our four-legged deer, and if you can put a piece of candy fa your outside pocket where Beauty cannot find it, 1 will give you five dollars -of my first wife*, money. Tnen I will drive you down to Ron­deau Park where there are no wolves and they are killing an overflow of ten deer per square mile each year. Then I will give you a letter of intro­duction to some of the leading con­ servation official* of Pennsylvania— and it ia only one night's run on the Pennsylvania railroad from my home to Pittsburg, where these big-hearted deer and bear living harmoniously to­ gether, even drinking out of the Mme stream within twenty feet of each other. And vou will hear the wild turkeys gobbling. pheaMnts crowing, big squirrels barking, partridge drum- msng and ifobwhitc quail calling. Surely you will say to yourself, if this can be done in a little state of 9300,000 Sula t ion and only 45.000 square a of territory, what can we have in our lovely Ontario where we only have one-third of the people and ovet nine times the territory—yes, .fifty times the wild territory. Then you will see plainly why Jack Miner to .o anx­ ious that tnc sportsmen of Ontario get together in one great narmonfaus or­ganizing meet and itait raising deer, not wolves, because the government alone cannot do it without the cooper­ ation of the sportsmen. are Michigan.

The breach between them seemed to have widened and deepen­ed. Sometimes Manie would not men­ tion her name foe days or even weeks at a time, discouraged by bis sullen receipt of her confidence.

Harry- Wilde rose fromtable, too indignant to defend either herself or her friend. the Day, wtien "Grandma" formed a very prominent feature in thc entertain­ ment. ' The dowager had had a second son, who went out to Australia as a lad, married the daughter of an English officer whom he met out there made a fortune, and settled somewhere on the Murrumbridge. where he was now a man of consequences. He had two sons aud a daughter. The daughter, whose name was Manie. married Harry Wilde, and was left a widow at nineteen Her father had beer her feeling*, if she had any, on the subject, appear on the surface. She listened .to Mr*. Harry with her. targe bright pastioplcs* brown eyes fixed on her face. and. whether she cared about it or not. she Evidently compre­hended both thc new* and the motive which had actuated the retaining of it- She asked no questions however, good or bad. but very toon afterward made thc remark that her mother wanted her home early, and went away— which made Mrs. Harry hope that her salutary lesson had taken some effect.She had no opportunity of remov­ ing whatever impression the had made on Adam’s mind by her insinuation, as the left Wildewood for Scarborough early on the following morniqg to­gether with old-Mr. Wilde and the children. It grieved her to leave Adam in such bad spirits—one had only to look at his face to tee how he •uffered—but there was no help for it. She almost wished that he would take it into hi* head to go to Beudesert and tee Maud; but that he would have scorned to do. Maud had treated him too badly—or to he imagined—to make is possible for him to do such a thing a* that. The last hit sister-in-law saw of him was as he ttood on the hall­door tteps at Wildewood. bare-headed, with hi* dog* about him, the early summer sunshine showing all the care­ worn line* about hi* face. ”Oh. Mr. Wilde, have you heard the new* about Maud Kent?" Old Mr*. Lloyd had just shaken hands with him in the middle of the village street.“No.” Adam answered, looking down her gray cork-screw curls and purple bonnet strings. ’’What news?”“Why, she is going to be married to Mr. Fairfax of Vale Royal" "Who told you?" Adam asked, abso­ lutely stunned for a moment “ Why. the whole parish knows it! There it nothing else talked about from one end of it to the other I Poor dear Maud Kent! it is a grand match for her. and I’m sure I’m sincerely glad of it—sincerely glad." Adam still looked from her withered face to her gray curls in a dared way, like a person who had been suddenly wakened out of his sleep. “I* it true?” he asked. "Are you quit sure it is true?""Quite sure Bertie Norcott had a letter from her this morning, telling her* all about t" Adam would have been surprised at her writing to Bertie Norcott first if Manic were at home. But perhaps Manic had also had a letter from her by the same morning’s post. She doubtless knew that Manie started for Scarborough two days previosly. "It's too bad we shan't have the wed­ ding here!" old Mrs. Lloyd said, nod­ ding and smiling as she passed on. And Adam raised his hat in the same bewildered, half-dared manner. and walked up the street to the Norcott*' house, swinging his racket idly in his hand.Bertie was waiting for him on the little tennis-ground at the back of the house. The drawing-room windows opened on to it, long French windows, with cheap cretonne curtains. All the window* opening on the village street were closed with Venetian blinds— Bertie hated the village, and kept out the view of it as well as the could. The house was a shabby old house, shabbily furnished; Bertie hated it al­ most as much as she hated the village, and told her mother so half a doxen times a day She was sick of trying to make the best of the old chairs and table* in the drawing room, of the cheap ornaments, of thc faded carpet, on which the furniture had to be plac­ ed in certain positions so as to hide the most threadbare places. She was sick of trying to dress on the meager allowance which was all that her mother could afford her. of their plain inexpensive dinners, of their life of "genteel poverty" altogether. And Mrs. Norcott was sick of hearing her grumble, though she could do a good deal in that way herself to her various friends and acquaintances in the vill­ age and neighborhood generally, who looked upon Mrs. Norcott'* visit* as an infliction which it was unfortunately impossible to escape, as it wa* imposs- ble to always out when she called But Bertie looked as if no such minor details ar shabby furniture and cold mutton had ever troubled her. as *h stood in the sunshine on the tennis­ ground. idly throwing a ball into the air and catching it again, her checks as softly.ruddv as a ripe peach, her dark hair curling over her forehead, her face looking more childish than ever under a quaint Normandy gather­ ed bonnet lined with crimson and tied under her dimpled chin with crimson •tring*.

It might have been ten years, so long did it seem to her since that »nowy twenty-third of De­ cember. when Adam Wilde had walk- ed in to the dining-room at Wildewood while she and Manie were drinking tea by the light of the fire. She wa* thinking of that evening now, a* the sat over the fire at Bcaudesert. lean­ ing back in her demoiselle chair, and looking with sorrowful gray eye* into the great bank of red coal* behind the polished steel bars of the grate It seemed so long ago, and she had pitifully grown io *ad and old since then, so pitifully old and sober! Could she be the Maud who had rid­ den kbout on her gray pony at Fief Oaks, who had played tennis, who had been mistress of that fine old place a unis forget that there were such things as cold and want and hunger in the world.This was what lay outside the closed door of thc dowager Lady Vigor’s sitting-room. Within, all was peace ant quietness. The dowager dosed in her great velvet armchair near the fire, her companion sal oppontc. as still as if she too were fast asleep; nothing broke the silence of the shadowy room but the crackling of the bright coal-fire and the monotonous ticking of the little French clock on the man- tlepiecc. under its glass shade.Bcaudesert was a very large house quite large enough to accommodate thc two distinct establishment* which might be said to inhabit it. All this west wing was given up to the dowager, none of Sir George's guc»t* intruding into it except by special in­ vitation Even young Lady Vigors me­ ed some ceremony in her daily visit*, aiway* lending a page to announce her if for any rea»on »hc failed to come at the Hated hour* when the do- wager wa* "at home.” Only the chil- raise her head ind listen, a* if *hc dren were privileged to come and go hoped to hear some voice »hc knew a* they pleased, "grandma” being al- 1 Perhaps she did hope to hear a voice ways at home to them.

Young Lady Vigors did not envy her mother-in- law's companion; she thought she mutt have a hard time of it, trying to make the old lady hear, humoring her whim* and caprices, and listening to long- winded description* of people and things which could not possibly inter­ est her. anecdotes of dead-and-gone relatives, of her own girlhood, and of the childhood of her children—the do­wager had a wonderful memory, and— unfortunately, Flossie Vigors thought —delighted in giving other people the benefit of it- For her own part, young Lady Vigors gave her mother- in-law as wide a berth as she could with decency, and thought Kent earn­ ed her hundred and twenty pounds a year very hard. But thc dowager wa* not so bad but that the might have been worse. She wa* not more capricious than mo*t other oH women, and she was not a* selfish at many. Flossie worried her Talking about the nurse* and the chil­ dren, and petting tliat horrid little dog of hers, she was always glad when her duty-visit* were over, almost as glad as Flossie herself. They did not pull weU together—or they - would not have much together But here at Beau- desert their interests never clashed. The dowager had her own carriage and horses, her own coachman, her own lady's-maid She was not obliged to consult her daughter-in-law as to when >he should dine, when she should drive when she should get up or go to bed. If she felt inclined, she could go down to the great drawing­ room, she could join thc family at din­ner—but the dowager seldom felt in- clned She was troubled with weak And its flavour la the finest in the world.

"They hooked him into it!" she wrote—Maud remembered every word of the letter—every sentence seemed to have burnt itself in to her brain."You know Adam—how ridiculously chivalrou* he is; and what did Mrs Norcott do but allow that girl to go to Wildewood while we were all at Scar­ borough—of course Adam a*ked her body in the neighborhood? Only a year ago. and it teemed like a century! She had suffered enough in that one year to have made her old. The firelight rose and fell, flicker­ing on the soft white rug. on the carv­ ed furni urc. oet the statuettes and 1 pictures, on the warm carpet, and on the velvet curtain*, which hung in i dusky crimson folds from floor to ceiling, darkening alt one *idc of thc spacious room Now and then *ome voice, dearer or louder than thc rest, would make itself heard in lhe dist­ ance. or a merry peal of laughter from , the children would echo through thc | silent room; and then Maud would i you know, and it seemed the only thing for him to do.

She had not seen him since he came back from Australia, and the supposed she should find him changed—Australia changed a man’s appearance very much, she had always heard, but Adam Wilde never was a handsome fellow—he had not much to lose. So the dowager had rambled on. and Maud had listened, sick at heart "He married some pretty little girl the other day—I forget her name Not much of a match, they tell me. but remarkably pretty—quite a belle, in fact. Manie told me he was in love with some young lady near Wildewood —I forget her name, but Manie knew her But that was before he went to the colonies. And he was seven years in the colonic*—quite long enough to, forget the nicest girl in the world!" Maud had amwered nothing to the dowager’s cynicism—lhe dowager sel­ dom required an answer to her rambl­ ing talk up to see me for a few minutes after dinner, before he goes back to the other ladies," the dowager went on. toasting her velvet slipper* on the bright polished Heel bar of the fender. “Not hi* wife, you know—I don't know her. and 1 can wait for the pleasure ot her acquaintance.

Thu man, talking pleasantly and unconcern­ edly to her by the light of the fire.Maud drew a deep breath, thinking of the day she got that letter—the darkest, blackest, most miserable day that had ever dawned for her, or could ever dawn again. How she had gone through it she could hardly tell to this hour; but, however Idng and dreary the day maybe, "at length it time ago. Adami wedding-day had come and gone, his honeymoon was over, and now she was going to meet him to-night just as if they had never been anything in the world to each other. The dowager was a heavy sleeper, when once she had really fallen asleep She seldom roused before the lea-tray that fire would be itself to-morrow morning, when the housemaid came to take the few cold blackened cinders from behind the bars. Her ladyship woke up presently, and joined in the conversation—monopoliz­ ed it, in fact. And Adam looked at his old love, and hi! old love looked at him. and. if either of them thought of the old days, they said.nothing'about it; nor did thty sigh at all. or look in the smalletl degree distraught. He thought that she had forgotten him long since, and she thought that he had forgotten her when he married another wom«n,' so that neither felt embarrassed by the idea of what the other's feelngs might be—whatever they were by their own. A servant carried in lighted candles presently, and immediately afterward eyes now when the door opened quietly and was as quietly closed again, and Adam Wilde, in plain evening­dress, with a camellia in his button­ hole, came forward into the full light of the blazing fire. "Miss Kent,” he said, holding out his hand. "It was only five minutes ago that I heard from Sir George' Vigors that you were in the house." He looked quite pleasant and cheer­ ful. handsome even, m the flattering "I thought >ou knew Maud said. living at Bcaudcsert! But we heard you had gone away for the Christmas bolidys—to the Black Forest. or somewhere. I did not expect to have the pleasure of meeting you here to-night." He spoke pleasantly and cheerfully, standing before her on the rug. looking down into her fire-lit face Who were to the table, and busied herself with the tea. and Adam looked at her. and wondered if it was the black dress she wory, which made her look so thin and pale. Old too, he thought she looked, and haggard; the sweet pure outline of cheek and brow and chin was more sharply defined than he remembered it; the gray eyes were moe< sunken, the sweet lips had a more sorrowful curve Perhaps it was because he had grown accuitoosed to a nxxe Hebe beauty, to round cheeks with the downy bloom of a peach upon them, to ripe lips that curved upward at the corners to meet the dimples in the cheeks.“May 1 give you some tea?” Mand asked, looking up suddenly. "If you please," Adam answered, as suddenly turning bis eyes away. He came to the table for it. and to dear old thing!" she exclaimed, with her hands on Maud's shoulders and her bewitching face raised to hers with the pretty petulent smile of a child, "it's so nice to see a face one knows in this great houseful of strangers. I thought you were in the Schwartz- wald or somewhere, somebody told me you had gone to spend the Christmas holidays near your little sisters." "No." Maud said, feeling chilled, yet not wishing to speak churlishly; ”1 did not a»k for any holidays. I knew Lady Vigors woulld not like to spare me; and, besides." she added honestly. "O holiday would cost more money than 1 should care to spend upon my­ self." "You dear old miser I How do you like my dress. Maud? It was one of my trousseau, you know, but I had it altered in Paris.

So »he rattled on, standing ia the middle of the room, in the full light of the wax-candtes. The dowager stared hard at her, with her gold glasses perched on her nose. Adam looked at her ai he leaned on the back of the dowager’s chair; Maud looked at her. absolutely dazzled by She looked scarcely more than a child yet, though her defeat? dress of Blest pink satin, tied batk with ihionabfc rigueur in front, swept in artistic folds into the long train at the back, sheeny pink as the petals of a curled over the white forehead, her complexion was like the complexion of a chiM m exquisitely soft in its pearl white damask red The splendid dark brawn eyes with their thick curl­ ed toshes, the laughing rose-red mouth, the whole outline and .coloring of the exquisite- efiild’s face, the white neck with the string of pearls round the slender throat, made a picture the like of which even the dowager with her seventy years of experience had never seen before. if you allow all oar fun to fall through because you won’t exert yourself a little.” Miss Lisle Adam Wilde pert childish went .on- again, Mrs. chiming in in a rather ..... ______ voice, which however suited her part better than Miss Lisle's lazy drawl suited hers. The other ladies listened, lounging about the fire and the great octagonal ottoman just befire the fire. It was a windy blust­ ering December afternoon, and the glow of the woodfire was pleasant, and the sight of it pleasanter than the leaden skies and bare woods and mel­ ancholy swirl of dead leaves, which was all that could be seen from the win­ dows. Somebody had raised the ques­ tion as to how the afternoon was to be spent, and Lady Vigors had sug­ gested a Shakespearean reading The suggestion had given rise to a great deal of animated discussion. and to an amusing distribution of characters, it being unanimously resolved that the reading this afternoon was to be only a rehearsal for a much more finished performance in which the various gentlemen staying in the house—but now out hunting— were to take part. The arrangement of the programme had been the cause of so much amuse­ ment to her guests that Lady Vigors was quite pleased with herself for hav­ ing offered the suggestion, jt being rather difficult to find diversion for seven or eight feminine visitors when confined to the house for a whole af­ ternoon. especially such a dull depress­ ing afternoon as this. So the reading went on. while the flame of the burning wood leaped and sparkled and danced, and Mrs. Van- defeur stitched away at her crewel­work. and old Lady Scott and the do wager tried to talk to each other—for the dowager had condescended to join the partv on old Lady Scott's account, who had been a friend and contemp­ orary of her own: and Jhe winter wind Mustered and bent the bare trees out of doors, and howled dismally round the great substantial old-fash­ ioned house.
