Silver col- The entire community was shocked on Monday afternoon Utt, when it be­ came'known that death had suddenly overtaken Dr. W. H. Bennett at his home, Ridout street, from an attack of heart trouble. He had been in poor health (or some time past, but was able to attend to his professional duties until a day or two before his death. The late Dr. Bennett, who was in his 58lh year, was born in St. Marys, and had been practising his profession in Tillsonburg for thirty years. He was a successful medical man and skillful surgeon, and had won an enviable reputation throughout the medical profession. At various times he was interviewed regarding a clinic in a larger centre, but preferred to remain in Tillsonburg, where he began his medical career. For over twenty years he maintained the only hospital, "The Emergency," in Tillson­ burg. and throughout the years had served his fellow-men with a devo­ tion which nothing could deter. The late Dr. Bennett took a keen interest in the industrial welfare of the community, being influential in bringing several industries to the town. He was a coroner for the pro­ vince. consulting surgeon for the Michigan Centrall. Caandian National and Wabash railways, and was a mem­ ber of the I.O.O.F. and Canadian Order of Foresters, being Chief Ran­ger of Court Lisgar at the time of his death. Surviving are his wife: one son. Russell, at home; his aged mother, who resides at St. Marys, and one brother, Benjamin, of Vassar. Mich. The funeral was held on Wcdensday afternoon and was very largely attend­ ed. The service was conducted by Rev. E. E. Long, assisted by Rev. W. H. Dunbar and Rev. Robert Bruce. The pall-bearers were Messrs. F.^ I. Tor­ rens. E. V. Tillson. L. R. Blackwood, C. W. Conn. W. S. McDonald, C. V. Thomson. W. C. Brown and V. H. Tillson. Interment was made in the Tillsonburg cemetery. Many beautiful floral offerings were received, testify­ ing to the high esteem in which he was held throughout the community.

Fisher started a batting rally in the fourth innings, and four runs had crossed the plate before Walters was replaced by Fraud, and in the sixth innings Fraud was replaced by K. Har­ ris. whose pitching was punished for five more runs in the seventh innings. At the close of the seventh innings the visitors left the field in disgust, but were reminded that any team leav­ ing the diamond before the game was completed forfeited the remaining games of the season, so the game was completed.

The tent to be used for the perform­ ance is the largest tent ever construct­ ed in the province of Ontario, and covers a space of 80 ft. x 130 ft., with ample seating capacity for 800, and it is hoped that the town and surround­ ing country will get behind this com­mittee and support it, as the proceeds, after all expenses are met, will be turned over to the Soldiers’ Memorial Fund.

Frank Fulkerson r The Board pointed out that when the liquor question was injected into poli­ tics. it was the mission of the church to ■ attempt to persuade the members to exercise their citizenship in a manner worthy of the Gospel. Hut this is something far different from dictating : what they should It it very ques- ' tionablc if dictation accomplishes any j thing. Men, at a rule, do not like to be dictated to. Sometime, they have to submit, but thi. i. only when their livelihood is at stake. They like to re­ gard themselves a. free moral agent., and resent being dictated to. Persuasion, on the other hand, is an effective weapon, if it is kindly and convincingly wielded. We think that moral suasion was the strongest ally that the eau.e of temperance has ever had. Greater use should be made of it by prohibition advocates it they would succeed. Only the .hort-.ighted will insist on dictating, since it gets the dic­ tator. nowhere and oftentimes turn, neutral, into real opponents. Never should it be employed by a church en­ gaged in a crusade. The church that leads in moral issue., rather than the church that dictates, is the one that will make the most kiting progress. To u* it seem, unseemly that a church should be mixed up in partisan politics. It fa not it. duty to help or hinder any political party. It fa not it* duty to solicit support tor any partic­ ular candidate. It is its duty to help nuke it* member, good citixen, of the country and to prepare them for erti- xen.hip in the life to come. If this duty it properly discharged. the church should have no worry. It can safely lease politics to the politician.

Next year the Safety Convention of the Industrial Accident Prevention Association, will be held on the 24th and 25th of April at the Royal York Hotel Toronto. In giving out this In­ formation. R. B. Morley, gentral man­ ager of the Associations, states that about 1800 delegates are expected to attend the convention from all parts of Ontario. The figures covering the re­ ports by industry in Ontario for April to the Workmen’s Compensation Board arc now available. During that month there were 7,290 accidents reported to the Compensation Board of which 37 were fatal. This .hows an increase of over 1,000 accidents reported by all classes of industry in Ontario. Fatali­ ties in April were slightly lower than in March. The total benefits awarded by the Compensation Board in the month of April amounted to $802065 33. of which $124.45174 wa> for medical aid. The pay-roll in the past year shows the highest in the history of the Compensation Board in Ontario and thi. increased activity account* in part for the greatly increased number of accidents. Certain classes of industry that arc not organized for accident prevention purposu. arc considering the desirability of taking up this phase of industrial activity and Mr. Morley reports that good result, should come rom thi*.

May 28—Although at the age of sixteen he has gained re­ nown as a world traveller and as an author, Dick Douglas, boy scout from Green«boro, North Carolina, who is on his way to Kodiac Island, Alaska, gated on snow in plenitude for the first time in his life. When in the heart of the Rocky Mountains he called him­ self enthralled more by the great field, of snow which crown all the mountains, than by anything else. From the mo­ ment he stepped off the “Continental Limited' of the Canadian National Railways, he was about the busiest boy in Canada, He was greeted by Super­ intendent R. H. Knight, of the Park, Fred. Brewster, well-known mountain the Inspector and Sergeant of the Mounted Police. In their company he visited Jasper Park Lodge, where he secured a number of close view* of deer graving on the golf course, went to Maligne Canyon and from there on horse back to Pyramid l-ake^t the foot of the mountain of the lame name where he had lunch in a real Indian tepee. The afternoon he spent near I Pocahontas, where he saw a moose and a large number of mountain goats and sheep. In the evening, with the boy scout* of Jasper, he inspected a bear den down by the Athabasca River. “Africa isn't in it with thi. country.” said Dick who was one of three Ameri­ can boy .couts chosen to accompany Martin Johnson to Africa last year, 'and I’m certainly coming back here. Thi* is the finest air in the world and I want to get up to my knee* in some of that snow .” Dick also spent a day j at Mount RolsMin, the highest peak in the Canadian Rockies, where be was initiated into more of the ways of the Northland by Roy Hargreaves, another noted Rocky Mountain guide. A National Problem “A death in child-bed is almost a •ubject for an inquest It is nothing •hort of a calamity which it is right we •hould know about, in order to avoid it in the future." These words of Flor­ ence Nightingale apply to our present times a* truly as they did to her gen­ eration. We should indeed search for the reason why each year 1JOO Can­ adian women lose their lives as a direct result of their bringing new lives into the world The reasons have been sought for, and the re.ults of such investiga­ tions, particularly the one made by tho Federal Department of Health, have shown why these mothers die. What it of the utmost importance is that we should know how to prevent most of these deaths. We know how to do so in the sense that we arc aware of cer­ tain things which can be done, and which, if they are done, will save many mothers' live*. Most of these deaths, which are such a tragedy to the home and such a loss to the nation, and which, fre­ quently, are the cause- of many social problems, arc due to the absence of ante-natal care and to the lack of ade- Kite medical and nursing care at con­ tinents. It has been proven beyond question of dohbt that when ante-natal and confinement care are provided, most of these maternal deaths can be, and actually are. prevented. There are two main reasons why women do not receive such care! The first one is that comparatively few­ women realize that their own health— indeed, their lives—and the life and . health of their expected baby depend ) upon ante-natal care. Both men and women should know that the expectant mother needs to be under medical supervision from the beginning of her the physician detecting the first signs of an abnormal condition, promptly deals with this condition and so averts a catastrophe. The second reason i> lack of facilities, distance from the doctor. Thi. is a problem which every part of our com­ munity should face and which all of us should do our utmost to solve. Ade­ quate ante natal and confinement ser­ vice for all should be a national policy.

Even with this ad­ ditional space and equipment, it has re­ quired the best of concentrated effort to keep pace with demand, so fast has the popularity of Durant cars spread throughout the Dominion.

Given a free hand to turn to his own way, nothing but trouble can ensue, for his own way is quite frequently the wrong way. This is equally true in the ex­ perience- of the child of God. At the beginning of the Christian life is con­ version, which is in effect the submis­ sion of the will to God. Growth jn the Christian life demands a, its con­ dition continuous submission to God’s will. We mnit turn from our own way to God’s way. This is not easy for any of us, and for the more self- willed of us it demands constant strug­ gle.

Hi, description of hi* work on the farm ha, not been lost on the folks at home. Listen to this in hi, latest article: "My wife handed me a hot one the other day, which took all the romance out of mv month’s farm experience We can bluff the public and kid them, too, but you can't kid your wife, can you? At least, I can’t, for she knows Smove I make and sometime* I »hc even know, what is run­ ning through my head, by just looking at me. Well, at the dinner table m Sunday, she up, and says: .’You might have held off thia farm stunt of yours for, a while. I had to hire a man for a couple of days this week to rake up the lawn, take off the stonn window, and dig the the garden while you wpre away. There are fifteen cord* of four-foot hardwood in the back yard out there, and from the great love and admiration you are showing for real hard work in the columns of the Echo, I know you’ll be crazy to take the bucksaw atra put a couple of cuts through just as soon as you get back home/ I didn't know what to uy, for 1 didn't’want to discuss the sub­ ject, so I turned the conversation by asking her who those strangers were in the seat in front of us at church this morning. Even at that, while she gave me the much desired informa­ tion. I’m dead sure 1 wasn’t putting anything over her. There is always a rift in the lute, isn't there?" British Boy* for Manitoba Farms MCCALL ,WrWA More than 100 boys will be placed on farm, in Manitoba during the coming sumnfer, under the auspices of the Manitoba Government, in accordance with the joint Federal-Provincial scheme to promote juvenile immigra­ tion, states Prof. Clarke Hopper, in charge of this work for the Manitoba Government, who visited Montreal. Prof. Hopper was on hi* way to Hal­ ifax to meet the first party of juveniles for his government, numbering 35, who arrived on the >-»- "Cedric.” Discuss­ ing the plan of his government, with the National Railways Colonization officials. Prof. Hopper stated that 100 boy, had been placed last year, and that practically all of them were doing well. They are not given any advance training, but are placed out among the farmers as inexperienced help, and thus far had proved most satisfactory. It was possible that in view of their ex­ perience the activities would be further extended during the coming years. The boys are recruited from all parts of the British Isles, under the auspice, of the Federal Immigration Organization. On arriving at Winnipeg the boy, arc quartered at the Manitoba Agricul­ tural College for a day or two prior to being forwarded to the farm,. For the most part the boya arc staying on the farms with a view to entering farming for themselves later on.

Eichenberg Tillsonburg, Ontario Tfci TBeaabwrt News The Earl’s Heir —BY------ CHARLES GARVICE CHAPTER I The Dread Messenger. In the front room of a cottage perched on a Devonshire cliff lay a woman waiting tor that messengei who comes to all of us sooner or later. The rays of the setting sun, which dyed the scarcely rippling sea a brill­ iant .crimson, fell upon her face and upon that of a young girl who knelt beside the bed and held the dying woman’s hand. The face of the woman was softened by the approaching cli- nux, and but for a strange restlessness and uncertainty in her eyes, it would have been wholly at peace. She had been silent for some time, watching the reflection of the sun­ light on the wall, and the young girl had been watching her, jilently, too, with tear-dimmed eyes. At last the woman turned her head and looked at the lovely,face, and forced a smile."What time is it. Miss Norah?" she asked, in a faint voice. The girl took out her watch. "Nearly eight, Catherine, dear," she replied. The woman sighed. “I shall sink with the sun." she said, not complainingly, but with the listless apathy of one who is waiting and longing for peace. The girl’, tears fell, but she cried quietly and unobtrusively, and even endeavored to conceal them from her companion, who saw them, never the- "Don’t cry, dear," she said. "Don’t be—unhappy. 'I should not be if— if 1 were not leaving you alone—al) alone *" ."Don’t think of me, Catherine, dear, said the girl, forcing back her tears. “Oh, if there were anything I could dorThe woman shook her head. "There is nothing," she said feebly. "I am quite willing to go, but—but for the thought of leaving you. Norah, “Oh; Catherine I” T have tried since your mother died, to be a—a mother to you 1” The girl put her arm round her and kbsed her. “You have been all that a mother could be to me—all, Catherine I” re­ sponded the girl, sobbingly. A strange look came into the dying woman's face, and she raised her hand and laid it lovingly, wistfully on the girl's head. > "And you have loved me as if—as if I had been your mother, dear?" she asked, with a sudden intensity. “Yes. yes, you knowjhat dear," as­ sented Norah, fervently. "Why, 1 scarcely remember any other mother than you. You have been------" 'She could not get any further. Catherine Haves' eyes closed, and a look of ineffable happiness and peace stole like the sunlight across her face. ‘‘Yes, I know,” she murmured. “It has been the only thing that has made it possible. If you had not loved me, Norah-----" She stopped, and was sil­ ent a moment or tWo. Then she said, "Norah, have you thought of what you will .do when I am gone?" Norah shook her head gently. “No, dear. How could I think anything but you? You must not unhappy or anxious about me.” The woman sighed. “You—you will stay here, Norah,’ of be she said, and her vofce had grown more feeble, "till—till—for a time. The peo­ ple will look after you as long as you stay. They are fond of you. and kind, and there is money. You have the last quarter’s allowance."Norah trie$ to soothe her gently. “Don’t trouble about me, Catherine, dear." The woman smiled wilt fully. “There is nothing else that troubles me, only you—only you, , dear.” The restless, hesitating look came into her eyes, and she moved her head to and fro on the pillow. “Have I done wise- Eshe murmured, more to herself the girl. "God knows I I have done it for the best; but—ah, Norah, if I were only sure 1" she gasped. Norah raised her until her head rested on the soft young bosom. “It is all so dark, so troubled I" con­ tinued the woman. “If I could only tell you—but I cannot. I dare not. Not now! It is too latel" And she sighed.“What-is it that worries yon, Cath­ erine, delr? Is it anything you want to teH me, anything you wish me to do?" The woman looked at her long and^ wistfully, with a tenderness which could not have been deeper in a moth­ er's eyes; then she sighed again. "No,” she murmured, as if she had decided. "It is nothing, Norah—nothing I can tell you; but there Is something you must do." “What is it?" asked the girl. "I will do anything, everything you tell me” “There is a letter under the pillow," said the dying woman, faintly. Norah put her hand under the pil­ low. and drew out a closed envelope.“Read—read the address," said Cath­ erine Hayes. Hastily wiping the tears from eyes, Norah read it: The Earl of Arrowdale, The Court, Santlcigh, Berks. At another time she might have ex­ pressed her surprise, but now there was no room for emotion but grief. "The Earl of Arrowdale; yes," said the woman, slowly, "you will post it— with your, own hand—when—when I am gone; tonight Norah dear?" “Yes, Catherine," said Norah, simp­ ly. . •The woman looked at her question- don’t ask me what it is, Miss Norah?"The girl shook her head gently. "Not unless you care to tell me dear. “No, I will not tell you; you will know soon. I—I " she struggled, as if with some strong emotion, and for the first time her eyes filled with tears. "I can’t tell you Norah, and yet it is so hard—so hard I" and the tears rolled down the wan checks. “Norah, say once more, ‘Catherine, I love you! 1 will never think bad of you, what­ ever may happen—whatever I may hear. Whatever people say of you, I will love you I"Norah bent over, fighting hard with her sobs. "Catherine, dear, dear Catherine, you know I have loved you, and that I shall always love you, whatever may happen! What can happen to make me so wicked and ungrateful as to for­ get you, or think of you in any way but as my second mother?" her Catherine Hayes opened her eyes, and fixed them on the girl’s faca with inexpressible Underness; then with a sigh, they closed to open no more on this mystery which we call Life. Norah uttered one cry, and, as if she had been waiting for it as a sig­ nal, an old lady opened the door, and came gently to her side."Come away, Mbs Norah," she said, in a hushed voice. "Come away, dear." The girl kbsed the white face, and stood looking do*n at it for a min­ ute through her blinding tears, then aUowed the old lady to lead her from the room.When the first shock of grief had subsided, she became conscious of the letter which she still held in her band. She got up, put on her hat, and walked down to the post office in the village. She might have sent it, but she had prombed to post it, and she would obey the one and last request which had been made by the woman 'who, though a servant, had been, as she said, a mother to her. A week later an old gentleman in a frock coat and a white hat climbed the narrow path that led to the cot­ tage, and knocked at the little green door.He was very warm, for the month was June, and the sun blaring in the fost gallant fashion, and as he took off hb white hat and wiped his bald forehead, he puffed and gasped, al­ though he was by no means fat. "Mrt. Jordan, I believe, ma’am," he said to the old lady who answered the knock The old lady bowed and smiled. "I am Mrs. Jordan, sir," she replied. "And thb, of course, is Cliff Cot­ tage?" he said, raising his hat and fix­ ing his gold eyeglasses. "My name b Petherick, Petherick, of Gray’s Inn, ma’am, and I wish to see Miss Norah Frere." Mrs. Jordan bowed. “Walk io, if you please, sir,” she said, opening the door of a neat little Klor. “Mbs Frere is out at present, I am expecting her every mo­ ment"Mr. Petherick walked in, and looked round the small room with keen, but not unkindly glance. It was the best room in the cottage, and it was not without a certain refinement. Two or three modern poets lay'on the table, and some etchings of the best masters hung on the walb. There was some­ thing about the room that was not only cosy, but tasteful, and with that indefinable tone which b felt, though it cannot be described. “Miss Frere has gone for a walk on the cliffs," said Mrs. Jordan, as Mr. Petherick seated himself. “It b so much better for her to be out ; indeed she almost lives in the open air." “Very healthy, ma’am,” said Mr. Petherick, nodding approvingly, “noth­ ing like the fresh air for young people, and old ones too. But, to tell you thp truth, I am rather glad to see Mbs Frere b out, for, though I have come to see her. I am glad of an opportunity for a little talk with you in her ab­ sence." He coughed a little dry cough be­ hind hb hand, and hb keen eyes scan­ ned Mrs. Jordan's face. It did not need a very strict scrutiny, for it was perfectly honest and genuine, and, but for its kindliness of expression, commonplace. Mr. Petherick’s gaxc relaxed into a persuasive smile."Let me see, my dear lady," he said. “I think Mbs Frefe has lived here with you for some years?" “Yes sir," said Mrs. Jordan, “nearly sixteen. She was only four years old when she came, and she b now nearly twenty. Time passes very quickly, sir." “Yes, ma’am, it does,” assented the lawyer. "Nearly sixteen years.” He looked round the room. "Let me sec— I’ve a bad head for dates, ma'am, al­though I am a lawyer—her mother, Mrs. Frere, died------?" he waited. ‘‘Little more than a twelvemonth after they came to lodge here.” re­ plied Mrs. Jordan. "Yes, yes," he murmured, making rapid calculation; “and since her moth­ er’s death the young lady has been liv- ALMOST FRANTIC .WITH HEADACHE Kidney Tronble and Weakness Relieved by ‘Trnit-a-tives” MRS.

"N-o, sir," she replied; “I think not. "Not once eh? Not jus: mentioned the name? Petherick & Gregson, of Gray’s Inn?"Mrs. Jordan shook her head. “I never heard your name mentioned sir," she said. He pondered a moment. "Does Miss Frere sec much company ma’am?

And now," he glanced through the open window, “1 wonder how long Miss Frere will be?"It was evident that he had asked all the questions and got all the in­ formation he wanted, and, lawyer-like was anxious to get through with the remainder of his business. Mrs. Jordan rose. .“Not long, I hope, sir, she said. "Meanwhile I will get you some tea— or perhaps a glass of wine?” Mr. Petherick, whose cellar was a somewhat famous me, shuddered slightly at the vision of a cheap sherry or a blacking-hued port, and replied briskly:“Oh, tea, ma’am, tea, thank you very much,” and Mrs. Jordan went m search of the single servant.At that moment a slim figure in a white dress was coming with a quick springing step up the path on the edge of the cuff. She was dressed in a white frock, simply and plainly made, with a black sash and a little knot of black on the shoulder, and wore a straw hat that, plain though it was, sat upon her head gracefully as the dress sat upon her figure.Within a couple of hundred yards of the cottage she stopped, leaning up­ on the rafl on the very verge of the cliff, looked out to the sea. as she had done times out of number, at that very spot, for sixteen years. The face was thoughtful rather than sad, for grief and youth are soon di­ vorced, and once or twice a smile, she was thinking of the dead woman who had been so devoted a servant, so ten­ der a second mother to her, and think­ ing also of her own lonely lot. Think­ ing, too, of the letter which she post­ ed/, and wondering who the Earl of Arrow dale might be, and why Cath­ erine had written to him. The dying woman' had hinted, in broken sent­ ences, of something which she might tell Norah; had this something any connection with the earl? The question rose in a vague form o<dy. and with little of earnestness in ft, for her life had been so unevent­ ful, so changeless, that she was not on the lookout for surprises or mysteries, as persons with more active lives are wont to be. For sixteen years she had lived in the little cottage on the cliff, content with her quiet life, happy in the beauty of the place, serene in the protection of the devoted Catherine, and for her­ self in “maiden meditation fancy-free" I Ufe was still a sealed book to her, land she was scarcely even curious (about it. | After a time she left the gulls, and I Caching the cottage, passed through (the tiny haU and entered the parlor. as she entered, exclamation of sweeping lashes, the wealth of auburn —red gold—hair, and the slim girlish figure with its graceful outlines, in speechless astonbhment. A faint blush rose to Norah's face, though the dark eyes rested on him with “maiden serenity," and she was the first to speak. "I beg your pardon," she said. And “Great Heaven, what a sweet voice I" flashed through the old man’s mind."I did not know anyone was here, and she turned to go.“Stop—I beg " he said, with a lit­ tle flurried bow, wherdas she was per­ fectly calm and self-possessed. "You are Miss—Frere?" "Yes," assented Norah, with a faint hesitation. '“I—I thought so.’ he said, struggling bravely to suppress all further signs of surprise. “Yesl My name is Pether­ ick—Petherick & Gregson, of Gray’s Inn, and I-er—in fact Mbs Frere, I have come down to see you.” 'To see me?" said Norah, and the beautiful eyes grew larger. "Yes—ahem," he drew a chair for­ ward for her. "Will you not sit down? On business.” Norah sat down, and, with her hands clasped loosely on her lap, looked at him with grave patience. "It’s—it’s nothing lo be alarmed at," he hastened to remark, for the sweet gravity rather decomposed him. "1 am not alarmed,” said Norah, a faint smile sweeping over her face like sunlight, causing mutter: “Heaven I The urel" ’’I’m—I’m glad . aloud. "Ladies, voung ladies especially, are generally frightened at the very sound of the word," and he laughed un- “Yes?" she said thoughtfully. "But I know nothing of business, and so—” “Just so, just so,” he broke in, with a little cough, hb eyes still seeming dazz­ led by her beauty and her serenity. “You have never heard of me, Miss Frere?" “I am afraid not," said Norah, after a moment's pause. He coughed again. "I thought perhaps that you might have done so, that Mrs. Hayes------ " Norah’s lips quivered, and her eyes were veiled for a moment, and her slight wince upset Mr. Petherick ter- •'b— I beg your pardon I’’ He glanced at the white dress and black sash.

Most devoted to you. Mrs.—Mrs. Jordan tells me. Sad loss, very, very I” Norah waited in silence as he finbh- ed his condolence. "And she never mentioned me to you?" “No," said Norah, quietly. “And—ahem," he coughed again. It was evident that he experienced some difficulty in proceeding to the business he had alluded to. "And she did not tell you anything else?" “Anything else?" repeated Norah, gently. “1 don’t understand------" Mr. Petherick wiped his forehead with a perplexed and embarrassed air. “I thought that she might have made some communication to you before she—died." he suggested. Norah shook her head. "No,” she said; then as she recalled —ah how vividly I—the dead woman’s last words, she added, "No, she told me nothing. 1 think------” she paused for a moment— “I think that she wished to tell me something, and that she tried, but she did not.""Dear me; yes, yes," said Mr. Peth- erick. “And a message now? Did she give you any message to deliver to— say any one?" "No," replied Norah. “She asked me to post a letter which she had written, that was all." "A letter, yes," he said, seizing the opening thus afforded, and bending forward with a little less embarrass­ ment. “A letter to------“ "To the Earl of Arrowdale,’ Norah, seeing that he waited. "Ex—actly,” he murmured. “Now t have you any knowledge, any idea of the contents of that letter?" < Norah shook her head. I “No. no Idea at all."..............................i “Hem," he commented. "I think I | ought to tell you at once that 1 am , Lord Arrowdale's solicitor, Mbs Frere." . _ “Yes?” said Norah, quite simply. She was only faintly curious. “Yes.” He paused a moment, then went on as i( he had done with the subject. "And may I ask. Miss Frere, if you had formed any plans for the future?" ’ . .“Any plans?” repeated Norah, and her dark brows almost met over the lovely eyes as she looked at him with faint trouble and surprise. "No. I have formed no plans; I—I did not know that any were necessary. I thought that I should go on living here as I have done, and------" She stopped. He nodded.“You are quite happy here? he ■sited,“Oh, yes, yes," she assented, with a little sigh. "Quite happy." "Mrs. Jordan is kind and—ahem— all that?”"Yes,” said Norah; “I have always lived here since I was a child.” “I see; and have grown attached to the place. It b very quiet.” “Yes, and very beautiful," she said, more to herself than to him, and her eyes wandered to the open window. 7"I see ; attached to Mrs. Jordan and fond of the place.

In fact—ahem; you have no other name than Norah- Norah Frere, I believe?” A vague suspicion began to assail Norah that her strange vbitor was slightly demented. She shook her head. “Did you ever hear your mother speak of your father, Miss Frere?" he asked. "No" said Norah in a low voice; "I think he is dead." “Now we arc coming to it," he mutt­ ered. “My dear yonng lady, your father b not dead; in fact—ahem—he is very much alive. I thought it likely that you may have learned that he and your mother were separated—from no fault of your mother’s," he added, as the beautiful face grew suddenly pale, and the dark eyes became moist; "no fault of hers whatever.

"Why does he wish to see me now?" asked Norah, in a low voice, her lip quivering. “Well, his lordship having become aware, by the letter of your nurse, Mrs. Hayes, of your lonely condition, has decided that you sliould go and live with him." Norah flushed. “Go and live with him," she Mid, slowly.“Yes.

I think the arrangement the earl proposes is only the natural and proper one, and I—er—trust you will find it a happy one." But though Mr. Petherick smiled and nodded, his cough and a certain compression of the lips were scarcely encouraging. "My father wishes it?" said Norah, her brows drawn in a straight line. "You may be sure of that. Lady Nor­ ah. I can assure you that the earl never did anything he didn't wish to—" He stopped awkwardly. Oh, yes certainly." "Where does he live?” asked Norah. “At present, indeed for a greater part of the year, at Santleigh Gourt, a most beautiful place, oh. beautiful I and—er—" he took out his old-fash­ ioned watch, "I think, if it is not hurry­ ing you too much, we must think of starting, say, in an hour."

The earl's glance rested upon the dark face and carefully attired figure with a momentary approval, and there was a touch of cordiality and familiar­ ity in his voice as he spoke to him which had been absent when he ad­ dressed his other guests. "Ah, Guildford. We were lauding your punctuality. The air is somewhat cooler this evening I trust?""Yes," Mid Guildford Berton. "But I walked slowly. 1 hope 1 have not kept you waiting." There was a foreign accent in his speech, and he seemed to utter every word carefully, as if he weighed it and watched it as it passed. -No," said the earl, "we are waiting now for Lady Norah."Lord Ferndale, who was standing near, regarding the young n*n with a not altogether approving counten­ ance, turned to the carl with surprise. "Lady—Norah I" he said. • It was a bachelor’s party, and the announcement of a guest of the other sex startled him. The rector and Mr. Parfleet stopped suddenly in the mid­ dle of their gojsip, and also turned to­ ward the earl He stood bland and smiling at them, one white hand touching caressingly the flower in his buttonhole, the other hanging gracefully at his side, and only the black eyes of Guildford Ber­ ton were acute enough to detect some­ thing malicious and self-torturng be­neath the smile and the veneered ease. "I beg your pardon,” he Mid, "I ought to have Mid ?my daughter, Lady Norah.” Lord Ferndale started, and the rec­ tor and Mr. Parfleet exchanged glanc­ es. They remembered the earl's mar­ riage, and the quickly following sep­ aration, but they had known nothing of the daughter. The earl seemed, in a courteous fashion, to enjoy their surprise.

It may serve as a warning to you, my dear Guildford. We will not go into details; suffice it that the foolish youth and the unsophisticated girl speedily discovered that the gold Love is more mortal and less tasting than poor humanity, and—they parted. Really I think it was the wisest thing they could do. You agree with me, rector?" The rector bowed and colored, and the earl, after delicately wiping his lips with his exquisitely fine handkerchief, went on in the same bland, smooth voice.’They parted. It was very Md, and very—diMppointing. But—what would you have? Life is too short to per­ mit of two persons spending it in quarreling.” He shuddered palpably. "But—but your daughter?

"Thank you. In the library?" The earl turned aside and entered the oak-paneled library, and held out his white and delicately-shaped hand. "Ah, Petherick." he said with a smile, the smile to be used when greeting the family lawyer; "a safe journey, I trust. You will be in time for dinner. We do not dine until a quarter past, and I have a few friends. The heat has subsided a little, has it not? I fear you must have suffered much inconven­ ience from it." Mr. Petherick coughed. "Ttank you, my lord; yes, it has been hot. I have returned my lord, and—and Lady Norah has accompanied me." The earl raised his eyebrows slightly. "Norah.

"I do not think we have had the name in the family before.

Lady Norah------" The earl glanced at his watch. "Pardon me,” he said, interrupting him. "Would you kindly ring the bell?" Mr. Petherick did so, and a footman entered. "My compliments to Lady Norah, and I shall be gratified if she will ’ dine with me at a quarter past eight" Mr. Petherick grew red.

If he felt dny curiosity respecting this daughter upon whom his eyes were to rest for the first time, cer­ tainly no trace of it was to be seen in his face as he took up an orchid from a vase and examined it with as pleased and devoted attention as if his mind were entirely free from any more pressing matter. Presently some of the guests ar­ rived. The footman announced Lord Fern­ dale, whose estate joined # Shntlcigh, an old and genial man with a loud voice, which made Lord Arrowdale’s sound the sweeter and softer by con­ trast; Mr. Parfleet, a neighboring squire; and the rector. Lord Arrow­ dale always attended church every Sunday morning, subscribed to all the local charities, and, as he would have The ful to______,-------------- .. ............... .. and as highly polished as the Kor-i- noot*. He had been known for years as the modern Chesterfield, and society was proud of him, as an instance of what noble rank and high breeding can produce. f *• He was tall, and thin, with a face in which every feature was as clearly and cleanly cut as if it had been done by a Grecian sculptor, and on which a beard or mustache had never been allowed even to suggest itself.At this period his hair was nearly white, but otherwise the face was al­ most without a wrinkle, and the figure was so well preserved that it was at once the admiration and astonishment of all who were privileged to gaze up­ on it. In speech, Howard; Lord of Arrow­ dale, was, so it was said, a model of grace and eloquence tor the degener­ ate times; his voice soft, and yet dis­ tinct, and capable ol any modulation. In manners—but the pen falters in its endeavors to convey an idea of Lord Arrowdale’s manners. Lord Palmer­ ston, who had employed him in for­ eign service, had been heard to de­ clare that Arrowdale's would melt a Red Indian, and his manners move a Tartar. No one had ever seen him in that vulgar frame of mind known as "a temper." When angry—and even he had been angry at some periods of his polished existence—his voice us­ ually grew softer and his smile sweet­ er. Once, when a young man, a woman had struck him across the face—with or without cause, probably with—and m the presence of others, they had watted to see what he would do, and were moved with admiration when he caught the hand that had struck him, and raising it to his lips, murmured, with a smile: "Rather a blow from you than a kiss from another;" and in their admiration the onlookers prob- I ably considered that his exquisite man- ners had more than atoned. ' As a young man, the noble earl had been wild and reckless, with a so­ ciety polished wildness; but of late years he had subsided into the middle- •8«d ever youthful man of re­ tired habits and studious tastes. And he was still the model to which parents pointed when they wished to impress upon their sous a type ol what a man should be who was made by manners. It is true that there were ribald in­ dividuals who had been known to jeer ?!Jh“?'

"Ah, weD, he is always punctual," said the rector, with the chuckle which accompanied nearly every resnark; and, indeed, as he spoke, the door opened and the footman announced the man alluded to. He was a tall, thin young man, with a salldw face, and hair and eve. of a darkness seldom found in an Englishman.

There was a painful silence, broker, bv the entrance of Mr. Petherick. The earl looked at the clock "We will not wait," he said, suavely. Mr. Petherick coughed. "I expect Lady Norah is too tired," he stammered. The earl smiled upon him and mo­ tioned Lord Ferndale to lead the way. They entered the dining-room, and the earl walked straight to the bot­ tom of the table, waved his guests to their seats, and the rector said grace. He had scarcely resumed his seat, when the two footmen ranged them­ selves on either side of the door, and Norah entered. She wore the soft, white dress with the black sash and shoulder ribbon, in which Mr. Petherick had first seen her; her face was pale, but that and the faintest quiver of the beautiful lips were the only signs that she felt the ordeal which her exquisite father had compelled her to undergo. The men started, and rose, looking at her in breathless silence. The earl was the first to gain his feet, and he, too, stared for a moment, as silent as the rest. He had expected to see a shy, tim­ id, underbred girl, half dairy maid, half—he scarcely knew what. At jtn> rate, something that would try all his self-possession and immovable seren­ ity. Instead------1 For a moment a faint color rose to his face, and all his boasted impassive­ ness broke down before this graceful young creature with the lovely face and wealth of red-gold hair, who stood wailing like a princess for homage. ■ Then he left the table, and taking her hand with a bow, turned to his dun- founded guests.

For a moment or two Norah felt giddy and almost faint. Surely no girl had ever before been placed in so ex­ traordinary and trying a situation. Op­ posite her sat the father she had-never seen before; the guests were all strangers to her. The magnificicnt room, with its air of mingled grand­eur and refinement would have been alone sufficient to overawe a young girl accustomed hitherto to the small and simple rooms of a " But Norah possessed easily cowed. Somehow divined that the stately, patrician old man at the bottom of the table, ex­ pected her to display some confus­ ion and shyness, and shfe resolved that he should be—well, disappointed. So, though the room seemed to spin round, and she saw the faces of the guests and the footmen through a kind of hare, she made no sign of the emotions that swept across her young heart. The gentlemen, with true delicacy, carefully avoided looking at her for some minutes, and talked together with the kind of vivacity which is so palpably forced; and it was evident that though they talked of the coming hay harvest and of current politics, they were one and all thinking of the girl who had been introduced thus suddenly and strangely to her father and her home. The footman brought her some soup the butler filled her glass with wine, with countenances as expressionless as if they had been in the habit cf waiting on her for the last twenty years: and Norah got through her soup and sipped the costly wine in sil­ ence. She knew that they were all think­ ing of her. and she felt the keen, gray eyes at the end of the table glance toward her now and again; but though her heart beat tumultuously, and her face was pale, her hands did not trem­ ble nor her lips quiver. An Indian at the stake could not have behaved better. Presently Lord Ferndale, who sat next to her, turned to her. “I hope you had a pleasant journ­ ey, Lady Norah?" he said, in as or­ dinary a tone as he could command, but which was gentle, and. as she felt, almost pitying. She raised her dark eyes, and the peer, who had seen many beautiful women in his time, experienced the thrill which Mr. Petherick had felt when she had first looked at him."Yes. thank you.” she said. "It seem­ ed rather long, but it was pleasant." "Let me see," he said, as he thought, "A lovely young creature, with a swe-.-t voice!”—"You came from------" "Norton, in Devonshire," said Norah "Ah. yes; a very pretty place. I hope you will like Santleigh. I sup­ pose I ought not to say that it is as nrefty; but of course I think so. My wife will be pleased to show you all our lions."“Thank vou," said Norah, simply. \ "I am one of your father’s oldest friends," he went on, “and I am sure you and Lady Ferndale will get on together." "Arc you fond of riding. Lady Nor­ ah?” asked Squire Parflect. in his bluff good-natured voice, wishing to »ay something to the lovely young cteat- ure in her trying position. “I have never ridden," she replied; "but I think I should like it."“Of course, of course!" he assented, genially. "I must find a nice horse for you; ch, Arrowdale?" The old earl bowed and smiled. '/You are very good, souire," he an­ swered, in his courtly fashion. "One can always rely on your judgment in horesflesh.* The rector gave a little cough; it was his turn now. "I’m afraid you'll mist the Devon­ shire ferns. Lady Norah." he said. “We have a few. or none, in Santleigh but we must hope that our roses will make it up to you. I think you will say that there are some fine ones here at the Court—and a few at the rect­ ory." he added, with due humility. "There are roses in Devonshire." murmured Mr. Petherick; are there not. Lady Norah?" Norah smiled at fiim as at one whom she knew better than the rest, and also liked. One person only had not spoken to her—Guilford Berton, and she chanced to glance at him. The dark, penetrat­ ing eyes happened to be fixed on her, and their gaxe met.

She ought, by all ordinary rules, to have been attracted by the young man’s handsome face, but there was something in it which jarred upon her. though she could not have told what it was. For a space in which one could have counted twenty they looked into each other’s eyes; then Guildford Berton withdrew his gaxe and returned to his plate, without uttering a word. The dinner proceeded. To Norah the courses seemed endless. She had gone to one or two small dinners at the clergyman’s at Norton, but the mag­ nificence of this, her first meal in her father’s house, as far surpassed them as a corporation feast surpasses a two-and-sixpenny ordinary. But through it all she made no mistake. If the earl had expected to see her cat with her knife, or commit some similar vulgarity, he was disappointed —or relieved. If she had presided at the lordly table for years, instead of for the first time, her martner could not have been more perfect. Every now and then Lord Ferndale or the rector spoke to her, and her sweet, *ow “oicc made instant reply. The costly dessert appeared, and after she had eaten them, she knew that she could make her escape. The butler entered, carrying a cob­ webby bottle m a wicker cradle, cud Norah rose.

"I thought you were going to say that she reminded you of one of the family, squire," he said, slowly, “and I was curious to hear whom you thought she resembled." He looked at some family portraits which hung round the room. “I must confess that I see no likeness to any of them." All eyes turned to the portraits in­ quiringly. "For my part, I don't see one of them—begging your pardon. Arrow­ dale—half so beautiful as your daught­ er," exclaimed Lord Ferndale.“No?" The earl lifted his delicate- to the had ly-marked eyebrows. “There isn't one with such beautiful hair,” remarked the squire. “Nor such eyes." said the rector. “They are very lovely and so full of expression.’ The earl looked from one other. "None 6f the Arrowdales have hair of that shade," he said. “A bronxe gold," murmured the rec­ tor. "Not one," repeated the earl, slowly. “We are, generally speaking a dark race. No, ahe sas not the Arrowdale face." "Perhaps Lady Norah takes after her mother," said the rector. The remark had slipped out una­ wares, and as the remembrance of the separation flashed across him, he reddened to the roots of his hair. But the earl turned to him with a perfectly serene and placid smile, though his thin, clean-cut lips were slightly compressed. "A very natural suggestion,” he said, smoothly; "but Lady Norah is quite unlike her mother." “WeB," said Lord Ferndale, hastily, “at any rate your family possesses a new type, of which it should be proud. Arrowdale." . . ' The' carl inclined his head. "You all make me very happy," he said, with a forced courtliness. “I had feared——" He stopped. Lord Ferndale pushed his glass with a movement of half impatience, half indignant. “Gad I" he said, “we must all try and make her happy. I’m sure she dc- serves to be? She must feel strange and—lonely." He, too, stopped, feeling that he had gone far enough in re­ buking the earl for his coldness. "She’ll make your life worth living. Arrowdale," he wound up with. The earl smiled. “My life has always seemed to me worth living, Ferndale," he retorted, if anything so sweetly and suavely spoken could be called a retort. Then he turned to Guildford Berton. "Did you go to the Swallow Farm to-day, Guildford?" he asked, and thre was a peculiar tone in his voice. The young man had been sitting perfectly still and silent, his eyes trac­ ing the pattern of the tablecloth, and he raised them with something like a start. “Yes sir,’ he replied. " and saw Farmer Goodman.

May 26—There is more than mere habit behind the practice of making up sleeping car berths so that the occupant sleeps with his head to­ wards the engine and the direction which the tram is moving, according Walter Pratt.

But because of its practice ever since the beginning of railroading on the to tom. he says, which has taken on un­due importance in the public eye. There is more than one case on record in the Canadian National Railways where an entire sleeping car has had to be made over to satisfy the whims of travellers in thia regard. When the first sleeping car was put in service on this side of the water, the company had to decide the very ele­ mentary question of which way the Gordon account a most Kaar—Bowerman An unexpected surprise was render­ ed when the four geenrations of the Wm. Kaar family came from Dctroti to witness his wedding to Mrs. Annie Bowerman of Tillsonburg.* Mrs. Lil­ lian Crossett of Detroit was maid of honor, and Mr. Earl Pelton, also from Detroit, was the best man. The wedding was attended by his grand­ daughter and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Earl Pelton of Detroit, and their son, Earl Pelton. Jr., also Mrs. Lillian Crossett, his daughter, Mrs. Sadie Marseilles, his daughter; his grandson. Mr. Gerald Crossett, and Mr. Harold Davies, all of whom are from Detroit.

After having been the sole proprietor of Windham Mills for half a century, Mr. William Sutton last week an­ nounced that he has leased the mill and adjoining property to Mr. ^oung of Aylmer with option to purchase.

For eight innings it was a very even game with Springfield outhitting Burwell, but fielding poorly just when errors meant runs. Burwell did not earn one of their first six runs. The side should have been retired in the third before Sutherland uncorked his long two- bagger, clearing the bases, and but for a juicy error of an easy pop fly in the fifth the side would have been retired scoreless in that inning. Springfield earned all their runs except the one in the fourth Young George Lindsays long drive in the sixth accounted lor operate the mill in partnership.

Tillsonburg is anticipating a return game al Norwich in the next few weeks. The game lasted for the nine innings with the following score of Mrs. Edgar Sapdnam on Wcdncs-' day, June 5th. We had a very unique sarvice on Sunday at our little church here. All the gentlemen of the congregation formed the choir for "father and sons' day,” leaving the ladies in the body of the church. Under these circumstan­ ces. no wonder, with such a body­ guard, our minister. Rev. S. Franc, was able to so beautifully put before us alt that wonderful and lasting sub­ ject of the Fatherhood of God. Your correspondent once heard a gentleman who. though no singer himself, say. 'I do love singing, but when I sing it is only like a crow,” and when asked not to sing until the rest knew the tunc he would say. in his Yorkshire dia- Hutch- i. Moe- Father madb the crow as well as the nightingale.” The readers can be as- Agent;that’s all right. I'm sell- passenger would sleep, with liis head or with hit feet pointing forward. Thr former attitude was chosen because it was felt that any backward rush of blood which might be ocrasioned by the movement of the train would be less sensible if directed towardt the feet rather than towards the head.While it may be problematical whether any surh rush of blood is brought about by the easy movement of railways as they exist today, details such as this are the basis of many well formed human habits. Mr. Pratt con- g!e car. or “chambrettc" car as em­ ployed on the Canadian National in which the sleeper's body is carried at right angles to the motion of the train, is not apt to interfere with popular prejudice in this connection, as, in this instance, there can be no question of the flow of blood being encouraged to any one portion of the body by the progress of the car. "It just happened," In the opinion of John Melville, of the same organira- lion, who contends that when human beings become accuitontcd to one posi­ tion they resent being forced into an­ other. The fact that a train's move- ment may cause the blood to flow easier backward than forward he ad­ mits may have been the basis for the beginning of the practice, but he feels that an equally plausible reason would have been found for making up the berths any other way.Mr. Melville tells of one happening in his railroad cateer back in 1909 when the facilities for travel from Toronto to Chicago were not as adequate as of­ fered at the present. Then it was necessary to take a sleeping car out of the Queen City and switch it onto the Chicago train at Hamilton, less than forty miles distant. This night the sleeping car had left Toronto for Hamilton going backwards the way the berths were made up. The passengers were so upset at the situ­ ation that to satisfy them, it was neces­ sary to remake ail the beds before the tram reached Hamilton. There the car was reversed again, and had the berths remained untouched out of Toronto, would have proceeded to Chicago made up according to accepted standards. As it was, Mr. Melville remarks, the passengers spent a good night, quite oblivious of their movement towards the United States feet first. It is only habit, he says, much the same as that favored by some campers of always sleeping with their heads pointing northward. One man once explained that this was to allow for the curve of the earth’s surface.- When a man had his head directed north­ ward, in Canada he could be assured that it had the benefit of elevation, however slight over his feet. Closer to the equator, the same individual was at pain, to point out. in order to suit local and west, as there the bulge of the earth was not so apparent. Dost thou love life?

Mrs. Safford ha* been convener of the floral committee for six years, and during that long term has been very' faithful in discharging her duties. Perhaps no other one ot u* could have done as well, certainly none better. Hundred* have been the bouquets and potted plants distributed by her and her helper*, bringing cheer to each tick room in the community. Our heartfelt thanks are surely due to this worthy lady for dier long and tireless work, and we sincerely hope her successor jnay do as well. While Mr* Holbrook has not held her position so long, she, too, has been very conscien­ tious and faithful in performing her tasks during three year* as president. We. who have never occupied this dif­ ficult office, can scarcely realize ju»t how many and varied are the call* upon one's strength, both physical and mental. At any rate, we know that Mrs. Holbrook ha* done her best and. at all times, made an able presi­ dent whom we were proud to have as head of oqr branch of the Institute. We thank her most sincerely and hope she will enjoy the rest from the strain, for a time, at least. Perhaps, some day, we may need her for the same position again. Now, we felt that our gratitude could but he expressed if we would present to you some • slight token of our appreciation.
