The draw for soft baU game* took place at 10 a.ra. Four team* were entered, Goshen, Norwich, Massey-Harris and All Stars of Till­ sonburg. The feature event of the day was the three mile marathon swimming race, open to all. Percy Heyd of Till­ sonburg. well known swimmer, who was disqualified at jbe 1927 Wrigley swim. Toronto, (or assisting an ex­ hausted swimmer, and an entrant for the 1929 race, was responsible for bringing to Tillsonburg three other Wrigley contestant*. Promptly at 3 o'clock Mayor Dr. R. E. Weston aad R. CrandaU launched a motor boat and the mayor announced tbe contestants for the race. There were twelve in all. Percy Heyd, Stan­ ley Hodgkinson (schoolmaster swim­ mer). Mis* Jewel Cheatwood and Misr Lilly Dibble, all training in Toronto (or the exhibit on marathon, and eight Tillsonburg youths.

Pete Miller and Bob Howse.The amateur swimmer* were given a three minute start over ihe profes­ sional*. Intense interest prevailed a* the swimmers stroek out into the deep water, several of the juniors leaving the water before the completion of the first lap. The off shore breeze wa* decidedly cold; but the water was body temperature, between 68 and 69 de­ grees. It was quite evident before the first lap sra* completed that Mis* Cheatwood wa* t he most likely comnetitor. She is 19 rear* of age and had a powerful hand stroke, swimming with apparent case and beautifully rhythm* movement. She wa* leading In all four laps of tbe three mile course and received enthu­ siastic applause a* she passed the starting buoy. She completed the race In 1 hour and 3 minute*, smiling and looking extremely “fit." Mis* Cheat­ wood ha* been training all *ea*on with Johnny Walker, and is a very likely contestant foe the honor* of the 1929 Wrigley marathon. She competed in the 1927 event, remaining in the water ten hours, and in 1928 she wa* able to finish the ten mile course With experience and additional training her chances look good for victory thi* rear. TiHtonburg citzen* were de­ lighted with her exhibition. The second prize wa* captured by Percy Heyd. in 1 hour and 9 minute*, and Stanley Hodgkinson finished third, one minute later, both powerful iwim- mers. They kept together during the rotire course, and it is doubtful that they exerted all their ability: at all events they were fresh and very game when they finished. Gerald Elder, a Tillsonburg high school student, re­ ceived much applause when he finished fourth, within the hour and a half. Ijlly Dibble, also a marathon entrant, followed closely after Elder. She also is a powerful swimmer and ha* only been taking Intensive training for the past week, attending business until one week ago She is training srith J.

I X-Ray, Electrical and Optical Equip- Community singing itself, in so far as there has been a genuine impulse behind it. has been one sign of the wider appeal which music is making in this country today. It has come in the wake of the general dissemination of music by broadcasting, and it has car­ ried a step farther the spread of choral singing which competition festivals have stimulated. The desire of all and sundry to lift up their voices in song has become so general that it has raised a problem similar to that ex­ perienced by the cwnpctrtson festivals —the need for competent conductors in all localities. To meet this need the various summer courses in music teaching, such as those organised by the Federation of British Music Indus­ tries, are now including in their syl­ labuses lectures on commutiny singing. In the discussion of its place in the services of the Church an anxiety has i>een manifested on both sides, which corresponds to an old, not to say a permanent, controversy in the realm of Church music. Community singing is ■ot a new idea, since its use in church s as old as religious observance, and outside the church by developing pan passu the practical and contemplative sides of the art in his congregation. There is a good deal to be said foe music done badly, provided one docs it oneself and no one else is compelled to listen, but the community singer will not rest content with a crude standard if as a listener he already has a high one in his mind. Community singing, uofcover, nuy txconic * recruiting ground for choral singing. Byrd, who did more than any other'man to make England musical in the days of Eliza­ beth. wished that all men should learn to sing, and to that end published songs "for all companies and voyces, whereof some are easie and plaine to sing, others more hard and difficult." But in his later works he asked his public to be "careful to hear them well expressed" and demanded that repeat­ ed hearings should be given to them in order that their qualities should be properly appreciated. Everyman in his music should be both a performer, good if he can but bad if he cannot help it, and a good listener.—The London Times. GaMrnl Throughout the Prairie Province* a conlinugnce of hot, dry'weather ha» earned further damage to crop*, and rain is urgently needed. Wheat x>n summerfauow and new breaking ha* withstood the drought condition* com- poor. Coarse grains .re very short. In Quebec, crop prospects continue promised, although in most districts rain is now required. In Ontario, light rains have beenfited al) crop*. In the Maritime Province*, while the hay crop is below average, other crop*, particularly apple*, promise well In British Columbia, rain is needed in many districts, but crop* are not suf­ fering seriously as yet.

In he nature of things, there is no neces­ sary antagonism between a high stan­ dard of musical performance on the pan of the organist and his choir on the one hand, and the heartiest singing •y the congregation on the other. The two things should be complementary, but in actual practice they are too often mutually exclusive and it is this dis­ couraging fact that Prebendary Car- ile has in mind when he asks that the efforts of Church musicians should be directed "to the fostering of Church congregational singing rather than to the finer points of Church music" The same suspicion is latent in all discussions on the value of populariz- ng music, whether by broadcasting or by community singing; discrimination and a wide appeal are incompatible*. It is not. of course, of the smallest value, as seemed at one stage to be assumed, for any concourse of unmusi­ cal persons to roar the baanlity of the moment. Harmoniousness as well as merriment is necessary, and there is no reason why music should be prostituted as a mere channel of gregarious high spirits. Similarly, In the case of listen- ng to music, the lack of discrimination shown by many'"owners of wireless sets, who turn as their taps.at nooc and leave them running tS midnight, is pernicious. In fact it must be accept­ ed as axiomatic that any kind of inter­ est in rnuasc. whether it is consumption by a listener or artfoc partxopouoo. does not remain stationary, but grows through an evcr-incrcaaing discrimina­ tion. But listening to aaf per farming music are two different activities, and Health Service of the Canadian Medical Assoc. Rabk. There are certain diseases which, al­ though they are comparatively rare and are responsible for but few deaths, attract attention because of the suf- ability to cure them. For example, we think of rabies with horror, not be­ cause it is a common disease or be­ cause it causes many deaths, but for find ourselves helpless. The reason why we refer to this par­ ticular disease is not in order to cause a thrill of horror, but to remind our readers that rabies can be prevented. The time between the occurrence of the bite and the development of symptoms — the incubation period — varies a good deal; the average in man is about forty days. If the dis­ ease is to be prevented, it is necessary that the treatment, which by the new Semple method takes fourteen days, be completed, and that fifteen days be allowed toe the full development of the protection which the treatment gradually produces. In order to secure the necessary twenty-nine days before the symptoms develop, it is essential that treatment be started at the earli­ est possible moment Persons who arc bitten by animals should immediately consult their phy­ sician in regard to treatment.

His reasons are, practical: "To preserve the health of Man," "to strengthen ail the parts of the brest," to procure a perfect pronunciation" Byrd does, however, mention as a desirable thing the expression of Nae lure by Art.

Large areas of this country are occupied by recent arrivals from Europe—49 per cent, of the population of Saskatche­ wan and 48 per cent, of that of rural Manitoba in 1921 was non-Anglo- Saxon. and infiltration of Anglo-Saxon communities by Europeans is steadily proceeding. During the calendar year 1927. the immigrants to Canada num­ bered 158.936 of whom 52.941 came from the British Isle*. 23.818 from the United State*, and 82,177 from other countrie*. Inasmuch as all but 681 ol the latter arc from continental Europe, it is manifest that from thence came more than half of all the immigrant* arriving that year from all quarter* of the earth. Though there was a slight increase in 1927. as compared with 1926. the proportion of Britijh was practi­ cally the *ame. and thi* notwithstand­ ing the pressure on the department from all parts of the Dominion to spare no effort to increase those of British origin. There is reason to expect that European* will outnumber all other* coming to Canada for many year* to eome, and since, generally speaking, only those willing to go on the land are encouraged to migrate to this country they must inevitably exercise a pro­ found influence upon Canadian rural It is dear that if Canada must have immigrants who may be described as "rurally minded" and with some experi­ ence of actually working on the soil, they must be sought elsewhere than in elsewhere and are migrating in increat- ing number* from the soil of over­ crowded Europe to the spacious acre* of this country and if the numbers com­ing in 1927 give an indication of what may be expected in the year* to come, rixty per cent, will be of Eastern and Southern European origin. The pressure of population in these sections of Europe which formerly en­ joyed easy relief by overflowing into the United States. mu*t seek an outlet elsewhere, and nowhere more obviously than through the comparatively un­ impeded channel* into thi* country, and inasmuch at there are great numbers of peasant farmers in Eastern and Southern Europe, and this country needs first of all a farming population, it may be anticipated that a large num­ ber of immigrants will find their way from that part of the world into rural You will find some of the best values to be found any­ where, in our tailoring department, and the prices are within reach of everyone.

EXHIBITION £UM-Garnl Yourfood doom IfroittotM By W. J. W. Lennox. Dominion Seed Branch, Toronto. It is difficult to control and prevent the spread of weed*, such a* Field Bindweed, Perer.n^ Sow Think and Couch Grass, which spread rapidly by underground ecu or root stalks ,* con­ sequently. land not infested with these weed, should be inspected frequently, aad plant, of these found growing thereon should be dug up completely and burned. However these weed* are propagated by seed* at well, which as a matter of fact i* the way in which most weeds are introduced to land and over farms, localities This being he case the *rcatest progress in the eradication of weed* can be made by preventing seeds from weed seeds to the land in the seed sown, in the manure applied, or other­ wise. The control of weqd* on many farm* is made more difficult at ■ re­sult of thete being allowed to produce seeds on roadsides, in lane*, pastures, waste place*, and along fence* and ditches. In many cases the true value of clean seed is underestimated. It is impos­ sible to control and eradicate weed* if the teed sown it contaminated with weed seeds; therefore clean seed h es­ sential in any system of weed control. Many serious infestations of weed* are known to have been started as a result of the weed seed* in the *ccd sown. Weed* which are allowed to ripen and remain in the crop will be har­ vested and threshed, and unk*» pro­ vision is made to segregate the weed seeds, these will pass out of the separ­ ator with grain, or be carried out with the chaff and straw. Weed seeds earned with ths grain represent part of the dockage (too often the greater part of it), and if the teed* be of a kind which cannot be re­ moved, the value per lb. or per bu»hel of the product will be reduced much below the market value of cicart seed Some kinds of weed* and weed seeds are bitter and distasteful, some in­ jurious to the health of live stock when fed in certain quantities, and ail are undesirable in grain used for manufac­ turing or seeding purpose*. If grain containing weed seed* be fed to live stock without being ground sufficiently to destroy the vitality of the seeds, many will be distributed on the land in the manure, still capable of producing plants and infesting new crop*. There­ fore. it is advisable that all grain used as feed be cleaned to remove the small weed seeds, and that these be burned to prevent their being carried back to the land.Those which pas* oct of the separ­ ator with the chaff and straw will be retusped to the land so that any which are vital will germinate and produce weed* to infest the next crop. It is advisable that a* many as pos­ sible of the weed seeds be separated at the time of threshing from.the gram and the chaff and straw. This may be accomplished by the proper use of screens in the separator.For years, separators have been pro­ vided with a screen in the lower part of the shoe to remove small seed* frocn the grain just before it 1* delivered from the machine. Recently there has been used in the machine, a screen in the deck back of the concave, to re­ move small weei seeds from the gram, chaff and straw, immediately following the process of shelling. The use of this screen is to be commended. As a result of the proper use of the two screens mentioned above, there 1* on the ground or on the floor under the machine, an accumulation of fine weed seed and inert matter. In most case* these are useless and harmful if allow­ed to spread, and should be destroyed, preferably by burning.Unless the separator 1* well cleaned after threshing, weed seed* may be car, ried from one farm to another and be distributed along roads and in lane*. Sufficient time should be taken to clean the separator well txHore it is moved. The matter of separating weed seeds from the grain, chaff and straw, at the time of threshing and thc~*leanmg of the machine is one for co-operation be­ tween the thresher and the farmer. This service is available to growers. It is the general desire of separator oper- toes to meet the demands of farmer* in this respect. The cleaning of the separator before being brought to the farm may save many dollars and much hard work. According to statistics millions of dollars are lost annually a* a result of the weed scourge. Weed* should not be allowed to steal farm profit*. f Economy Di»he» S S bZ3T“ Simceic, mcXoeid and .p«~^da7 the DonuX Barren oi sL7i.t£ pnd Mrs. R.

THE Highway Traffic Act requires that every person operating a motor vehicle shall secure an operator’s or chauffeur license and shall at all times while driving carry same. A penalty is provided for failure to produce such licenses when demanded by an officer. It is necessary, owing to the number of motor­ ists who persist in driving without licenses, that the police be instructed to require the production of these licenses from time to time. This law has been passed in the interests of safe driving and to prevent incompetent persons from operating motor vehicles. The production of a license is the only proof of ownership of one.

MEDITATION Psalm 110:7: "He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall he life up the head." The brook in the way has often proved to be the salva­ tion of man and beast. Oppressed with weariness and fainting with thirst, they found renewed strength in the sparkling water of the brook m the way. God in His infinite goodness has made available many brooks in the way of life. Parched and drooping souls have but to drink of these brooks to find refreshment and in­ spiration. The Bible is a brook in the way. Prayer is another. The public worship of God is also such a brook. There are many children of God. friendship with whom may prove to be a veritable brook in the way. Life may appear to be a dry and thirsty land, but God's brooks of water are to l»e found in the way. and those who drink of them sliall lift up their heads with courage >*4* revived.

Preparations have been made on a larger scale than any previous, and no expense or effort has been spared, where it would make for greater enjoy­ ment by the Public who have evidenced their faith in this project fey growmg attendance records for several past yean. , .The grounds have been carefully gone over and improvements made whenever necessary. At great cost, a new Poultry Building has just been erected, of brick and steel construction, which affords advanced facilities for exhibitors. . The race track will be more in favor than ever, as it has been entirely re­ surfaced, and now is considered the finest track of its kind in Ontario An enjoyable time at the Midway is assured when it is known that the attractions this year will consist of the pre-eminent Rubin and Cherry Shows, and this Midway is that same which attracts such gigantic crowds at the Canadian National Exhibition. Toronto, which, in itself, is an endorse­ ment of the finest kind for any amuse­ ment enti The pert------------ -----------------stand promises to equal, if not eclipse, anything yet seen on this program. In almost every branch of industry, the year 1929 has seen tremendous developments. These will all reflect in thr exhibits shown in the Manufac­ turers' Building, where a most inter­ esting range of products will be dis­ played. Of not the least interest will be several new cars which have been announced during the past few months. The Art Exhibit will be of the usual fine standard. The Live Stock display, at Western Ontario's Own Exhibition are justly famous throughout the Province and all indications are that this year will see this department at its finest, housed entirely in new buildings and equipped with every moderu con­ venience of handling and judging. Altogether, the 1929 Western Fair appears to be the greatest yet. and the Directors are confident that the at­ tendance will be such as to warrant further enlargements yearly. Ixmdon hotels will make special arrangements to care for Fair-Weck visitors, and traffic arrangements will be altered to provide for the large in­ flux of visiting motorists. erformance be lore the Grand- 30,000 Attend Radio Company Picnic Chicago.

Why did you pass yiurself off a* a common person like "’"NitTTack!" implored Cyril. "Why did you allow me to believe that you were just a hard up artist, and permit me to make a friend of vou? I’m not proud------"Oh, aren’t you? Oh, no, muttered C"But I’m not over fond of lords at the best of times, and I—well, I repeat it; you have played it considerably low down upon me. and his face flushed angrily. “Now Im on the candid line, I may as. well continue and speak my whole mind, and at the risk of offending your lordship, I beg to state that I think that .for an out- at-elbows artist to pass himself off for a lord is not much meaner than for a lord to pass himself off as a struggling artist. But I hope you have found it amming,’ and he nodded almost sav- ag“Look here." said CyriL desperately, “what's the use of getting furious like this. Jack? I am a struggling artist, though I am Viscount Santleigh. “Indeedl" commented Jack, caustic­ally, as he deliberately knocked the ashes out of hi* pipe. "Ye*. Listen to me. Jack. 1—I didn’t mean to tell you; you forced it otft of me""It’s rather a pity that I didn t force it out of you earicr," remarked Jack Wesley, grimly. “Well, perhaps it is. But Im not such a bad lot m the w>y of deception a* you make," retorted •Cyril. "Jack, and he let hi* hand fall upon hi* friend's shoulder in the old, familiar way, "you haven’t gone through what I have; you’d understand------“ “Perhaps not," growled Jack; "I cer­ tainly don't understand." “Let me make it plain for you------ “It’s plain enough, not to say ugly, as it is. . “My father,” went on Cyril, paying no attention to the ill-humored inter­ ruption. and still looking earnestly at Jack, "my father died while I was at Oxford. I was twenty-two then, and I- started life a viscoq.pt, the nephew of an earl, with my mother’* money and no end of good spirit*. I thought life was going to be all beer and skittles, and so it was—for a time, I didn't know anything of the world. I didn't know anything about money, and 1 went the old road like the young fool I was, without thinking of anything but the pleasure of a moment. That wa* for a time, and not a very long time, either. Before I’d got through my money—yes. Jack, even before that —I saw through the hollowne** of the game. I saw that peopc round me were pleasant and smooth just because I was Viscount Santlcigh, and heir to the title and estates. I was young and fcreen, but verdant as I wa*. I soon discovered that it wa* for the good thing* of the world that were to fall to my share that people made up to me. I didn't suspect it at first. I thought that it was because I wa* a rather pleasant kind of fellow that the women with .daughters—yes, and the Is themselves— were so amiable and :ndly. But I got my eyes open at last, and I—well, I didn’t like it.’’ "That's strange I" remarked Jack, caustically. "I got suspicious," resumed Cyril, taking no notice, “suspicious of every­ body I met. When a pretty girl was more than usually pleasant and amia­ ble. I said to myself, ’It's not you your­ self she care* for,’ and the thought wa* just torture. I had an idea that I'd cut the whole thing, and go off and bury myself in America, Australia, any­ where out of the beastly world where every girl is taught to fi*h for a man because he happens to be able to make a countess and a rich woman of her. While I was thinking of this, and seri- ouslv meaning it, the crash came. Give me some more *bacca. Jack." Jack threw him the pouch without a word. "I’d been going the pace ever since I came into my mother’s money, and I'd spent ever)' penny of it. Worse, I’d borrowed; and the nice little bit* of paper were coming in like pigeons to roost. Then I woke up thoroughly, and I swore that I wouldn't be a mere tailor’s dummy clothed in a title any longer. I swore 1 would cut the old life, the sporting clubs and the rest of it, and—and—well, I made up my mind to try and prove myself a man.” Jack puffed at his pipe, leaning his head upon his hand, but looking almo*t as grim and surly as before. “I’d got a knack of drawing and painting," went on Cyril, “and I thought that I’d try and earn my living at that. If that failed, I determined I'd try something else, I didn’t care what. I'd drive a cab—I could do that —or become a tram car conductor, or keep a bookstall at a railway station, or enlist in the guard* — anything — anything in the world rather than go back to the old useless life, of which I was utterly sick and tired, and ashamed.” He paused, and Jack Wesley glanced at him a little les* savagely.“I had a hard time of it.

"But now to business. If you mean all you say, the sooner you see Lord Newall'* man and arrange about this picture, the better." "Yes." assented Cyril, promptly, "I'll look him up at once, and then— and then I'll start for Brittany. But I must run down to Santleigh first, old man; I’ve got to get my trap* and —and," he blushed ingenuously. Jack Wesley laughed. “Oh, I understand, and to say ’good- by.’"“Oh, and I’ve promised to go at a flare-up at a great friend of Norah’s," said Cyril, remembering Lady Fern­ dale’s invitation for Wednesday week. “All right," said Jack, “off with you now, then. I’ve wasted quite enough time upon you thi* morning." Cyril laughingly made for the door, when a knock came, and Jack, already bending over his paper*, called out, “Come ini" Cyril stepped aiidc, the door opened, and a man entered. Cyril had never seen him before, and he looked at him with some curiosity. He was an elder­ ly man, with a weather-beaten face and iron-gray hair, thick set and muscular; and his figure and the old and patched pcajacket he wore gave him the ap- Erance of a sea captain down on luck, or a bargee, or perhaps a discharged coastguardsman. Cyril—artist like—thought he would make a capital model for a figure in a “ship piece,” when the man, glancing at him from under a pair of shaggy brows, stopped short. "Beg pardon," he said, in a rough voice. "Didn’t know you weren't alone.” "All right. Furlong." said Jack. "A friend of mine, Mr. Cyril Burne. Wait a moment CyriL before you go. he added. Cyril walked to the window and looked out at the quiet thoroughfare, and the elderly man in the peajacket took a roll of paper from hi* pocket and laid it on the table. Jack opened it and looked it over. “Atk right, Furlong," he said, with a nod, and he took out some silver coin* and handed them to the man. who took them and gruffly growled his thanks. “Any more?" he asked. "Yes,” said Jack, and he took some papers from his desk and gave them to him. “Get them done a* soon as you can. Can you let me have them back tomorrow?" Furlong examined the papers. “The day after,” he said shortly. Jack nodded. -“Very well, the day after, then. Did Cfind anything very wrong in the lot ?" “No. There arc no leopards in that part of the world.” Cyril stared, and Jack laughed. “Oh, I didn’t know. I'll be more careful in my zoology another time.” "You can’t know everything." re­ marked the man, curtly."I beg your pardon, Furlong, re­ torted Jack, ^gravely, "an author doe* know everything. He's bound to; once he admit* he doesn't, he can throw up the *ponge.”The man smiled, glanced rouqd the room, and at Cyril, and with a nod walked out. ,“What on earth wa* that. Jack? asked CyriL “An old fellow I picked up the other dav." replied Jack Wesley “He says hi* name is Furlong, and that he ha* been a mate on board a trading ship, a planter'* foreman in Ceylon, a fur trader in Hudson’s Bay Territory, and several other things of a like or unlike character; I found him sitting on the doorstep the other night, and a* he seemed hard up. I hunted out some work for him. Poor beggar, he was regularly stranded, but. with a cyni­ cal smile, "he will probaby turn out a duke in disguise." Cyril laughed. "That's one . for me, old man, I »up- Cse. Poor old chap. But what doe* do for you?

"Yes, curious, isn'ft it?" assented Jack, "but appearance* arc deceitful. Who. for instance, would suppose that Mr. Cyril Burne was------” "Now.

Do you think he’d mind ting to me as a model?" “I should say he wouldnt have slightest objection," said Jack, earning money in that or any other way, honest or diihonest. Oh, yes, he’d sit for a model well. You might call him ’The Returned Convict.' "What," said Cyril, "do you think—” "No, no," said Jack, quickly. I don't know anything about him, and have no reason to suppose that he was ever in Botany Bay. As I say, he will probably turn out to be a duke in­stead of a ticket-of-leavc man." "The old fellow ha* a furtive way of looking about him," said Cyril, upon whom Mr. Furlong seemed to have made an impression.“I dare say. So would you if you bad gone through half he say* he ha*, remarked Jack. "But about NewalL You won’t leave London until you have seen him and settled something defin­ ite? He is a slippciy cu»tomer, and is worth sticking to." “All right,” assented Cyril. "I mean business, Jack, and will stick to his lordship like wax." Jack grinned.“How surprised he would look if you sent in your card—your proper one, I mean?" he said. Cyril laughed and then frowned. "That'* a secret which I have only shared with you. Jack," he said, rather ^“Confound you, yes. and I wish you'd kept it to yourself," growled Jack. “There, be off now. What with you and that old ruffian, my mornings nearly gone.”Cyril went off laughing, and strode up the Strand with a light step and a lighter heart, thinking of his picture and of his sweetheart What was she doing now? he wondered.

But man proposes, and Providence dis­ pose*. and the hours that stretched between him and Norah were many, instead of few.He did not return to Winchester street until night, and Jack noticed that hi* step was not nearly so light as when he had started. Jack was eating his supper of chops and baked potatoes, accompanied by bottled stout, which has a great charm for such men. when Cyril entered the room they shared m com­ mon. and flung his hat on the sofa and himself into a chair. “Well?" "ueried Jack. "Well? It'* not well, but bad, re­ sponded Cyril, impatiently. I meant io be down to Santleigh tonight. *n"Here you are instead. That’s not very complimentary io' me; but not matter. And what is the matter? “It’s that confounded old fool, »aid ^"Meaning my Lord Newall ?

And found the mail just gone; in fact, I saw the tail of it, confound it I Well, then I made up my mind that I’d catch my train to Santlcigh, but when I got to Padding­ ton I remembered what I’d promised you, and went back to Moses." "There’s hope for you yet, young un," remarked Jack “You are reveal­ ing the hitherto unsuspected existence o$ a conscience.

You must stop and catch him. Well?" “I tramped back to the house—it won't run to more than two cabs a day!—and left word that I’d meet hi* lordship anywhere, any time, he liked to appoint, and then I came home." "Good boy. More stout?" said Jack. "For Heaven’, sake, don’t look so miserable. What are you afraid of?"“Afraid of!" echoed Cyril, with a sigh. "You don’t understand! I left Santleigh thi* morning without a word to—to her that I wa* going, and I can't write to her and tell her why I have come away, and where I am! What do you think she thinks?” "That you have thought over your bargain and have repented of it." Cyril set down his glass with an ex­ clamation. ’’Ah, Jack, if you only knew her!""All women are alike from Eve downward," »aid Jack, cynically. “She will htink that you have got over your love fit.” Cyril pushed his plate away and sprang to his feet. "Don't say that. Jack, I—I can't bear to hear you. Chaff me about anything cite and I don't mind, but Norah is sacred!" Jack understood, and lapsed into silence for a time, but presently suggested a stroll, and the two men tallied out. a* they had often done be­ fore. and went to a place of amuse­ ment much patronized by their kind: but all through the music, and the dancing and the songs, which were all good and first-rate in their way, Cyril thought of his beautiful sweetheart, and saw her face aglow with the light of love and trust and devotion, and he wa* very poor company for hard-worked Jack Wesley. The next day he went to interview Moses, the dealer, and from him re­ paired to Harlcv street in search of Lord Newall. But hi* lordship had not returned, and did not return, and the day* passed swiftly and noiseless­ ly, and Cyril’ heart «» rent in twain between hi* longing to see hi* sweet­ heart, and hi* desire to carry out hi. plan and learn all about the picture he was to paint for the rambling nobleman. zAnd Norah? All that fir.t day when Cyril was dashing from pillar to post, from Mose*' office to Harley street, and from Harley itreet to Channg Cross Railway Station, she spent in thinking of him.She walked through the park to the glade—the happy glade—where .he had twice met him. but he wa. not there. And there came no message, no letter, from him. If she wa. not down- scarcely .peak a word. Cyril oc- copied her whole mind to the exclu­ sion of anything else, and the next day fresh people called—people who had heard her praise* chanted by Lady Ferndale, and who, coming prepared to be charmed, were charmed up to the hilt.She had as many invitation* to luncheon* and tennis parties as she could well accept, and for the next two or three days she went to one place and another, and found herself quite the queen and heroine. A* Lady Ferndale had said, she was “a success."And a success means *o much. For a girl it mean* being surrounded by all the admiring men and being made much of by all the enviou* women. The former declared fcef ,o be perfect and altogether lovely; the latter found fault with her nose, and her manner of speaking, and her style generally. Norah ought to have been happy, for there is nothing more delightful to the female breast, as we know, than to be admired by men and envied by. women; but somehow she was not She missed Cyril, with hi* hand*ome face, and hi* frank, honest eye*. Where had he gone? Why had he not sent one word to her? All the county wa* running over in rhapsody about Lord Arrowdale s daughter. Lady Norah, declaring her to be the mo*t beautiful and most charming woman this season or any other season had produed. and Norah herself wa* thinking only of the poor artist who had won her heart and stolen her troth, and then disappeared. Lady Ferndale was delighted with Norah's popularity. “I told you she would be a success, she remarked, triumphantly to the earl "You men don't know what that mean*, btft we women do. She may. and probably wilL marry a duke, and whoever he is, Norah will be too good for him." , ,And Lord Arrowdale had bowed and smiled, and waved hi* white, scented handkerchief complacently. It seemed to him only right and natural that a daughter of hi* should bear away the palm from the daughter* of all other men. He wa* pleased, but not sur­ prised. The day of the festivities at Ferndale Park drew near and still Norah had heard nothing of Cyril All day she thought of him. and at night she looked from her window at the stars and seemed to ask them what had become of him. For many a night »he lay slecj trying to account for his absence silence, but she could not solve Clem.
