I3tit the gnl's brow darkened as she watched hiin, and her under lip fell as if she would like to say. �I "If you go on laughing," she said, *r I'll run straight back home, and never come here no more." Well, I'll try to keep my counten- ance, but the idea, ie very funny. Really. now? Thm't you see it in that light, yourself?" Certainly Matt did not, to judge from the expression of her face. Shp turned her head away, and Brinkley saw to his surprise that a tear was rolling (limn her cheeks. " Come, Matt," he Said, liilldly, " yo& mustn't take this so seriously, Tell me all al;out it—there's a good girl." "1 will* -if you won't laugh." " I won't then, there." . " Well, when I was lying in my bed this morning I heard William Jones .a -talking to someone. He thought I woes .asleep, but I got up and listened, and I -heard Mr. Monk's voice; and he said, aayshe, `She's over sixteen years old, ,and I'll marry her;' and William Jones said, • Lord, Mr. Monk; what can you be a -talking about? Matt ain't old enough, and what's more, she ain't fit • to be the wife of a fine gentleman.' Then Mr, Monk he stamped his foot, like he does when he's in a passion, and he said, says ho, ' My mind's made up, William Jones, and I'm going to marry her before the year's ant; and I don't care how soon. Then I heard them moving about, and I crept back to my bed and pretended to be fast asleep." The young man's astonishmontincreas- ed, There could bo no doubt of the veracity and sincerity of the speaker; and the story she told was certainly puzzling. Brinkley made up his mind, without much reflection, that if Mr, Monk wanted to go through the marri- age ceremony with that child he had some special and mysterious reason for so doing, unless—which was scarraly possible—he was of a sentil'tental ais- ,position, and, in the manner of many men advanced towards middle ago, was +enamored of Matt's youth and inoxperi- enoe. "Tell me, Matt," said Brinkley, after pondering the matter for some minutes; "'tell ane hew long you have !mown this Mr. Monk?" "yyEver since I came ashore," was tyle �pHnmph!—is he well -to•do?--rich?" Matt nodded emphatically. All Aberglyn belongs to him," she *aid, " and the woods up there, and the farms, and the horses up at the big house, and—everything." "And though he. is such a great per- son, he is very friendly with William Jones?" " Oh, yes," answered Matt; " and I think William Jones if afraid of bill i— something; but he gives William ,Tones •moray for keeping me." Oh, indeed! Ire gives him money, does he? That's ra;.eer land of him, you know." At this Matt shook her head with great decision, but said nothing. Great- ly guzzled. the young man looked at her, and mused, It was clear that there 'was a mystery somewhere, and lie was getting interested. Presently he in- vited Matt to sit down on the steps of the Caravan, and he placed himself at her side. He was too abyorbed in specula- tion to notice how the girl color at and brightened as they sat there toget:ier. "You have often told mo that you came ashore," he said, after a long pause. "I should like to know some- thing of how it hap, eased. I don't ex- actly know 'Athat this 'conning ashore' means, Can you explain?" ;'I don't.reanember," she replied.; "but I know there was a ship, and it went to pieces, and I come to shorn in a boat, or sumanat." "I see—and William Jones found you?" "Mr, Monk, he found ane, and gave the to William Jones to keep." "I begin to understand. Of course, you were very little—a baby in fact." "William Jones says I could just talk some words, and that when ho took me home I caall'ed him `Papa." "What was the name of the ship? Have you ever heard?" • "No," said Matt. "Did you come ashore all alone? It is scarcely possible!" "I come ashore by myself. All the rest was drowned." "Was there no clue towho you were? Did nothing coque ashore besides to show them who you were or where you came from?" Matt shook her head again. Once more the young yuan was lost in medi- tation. Doubtless it was owing to his abstraction of mind that he quietly p�l1laced his arm rrlund Matt's waist, and kept it there. At first Matt went very red; then she glanced up at his face, and saw that his eyes were faxed thought- fully on the distant sand•hills. Seeing he still kept silence, she moved a little doses to him, and said very quietly: "I didn't tell William Jones that you --kisser! nle I" Brinkley started from his abstraction, and looked at the girl's blushing face. "Eh? What did you say?" "I didn't tell William Jones that you kissed ane!" These words seemed to rcinind the t young man of the position of his arm, for he hastily withdrew it, Then the absurdity of the Whole situation ap- peared )-aeared to return upon hire, and he broke auto a burst of boyish laughter — at, which his companion's face fell once more, It was clear that she took life seriously and dreaded sarcasm, " Matt," he said, " this won't do 1 This 'Won't do at all.

Sold at Chisholm's Cerner Drug Store, Wingham, The EfFoct of Salt an Spit given to cowa has some effect on the quality of the milk. This is necessarily so as the salt aida very much in the digestion of the food, and it is the quantity of the food digested that regulates the quantity. and quality of the milk. Salt is in- dispensible to the health of any animal that feeds 'on vegetable matter, and the milk is effected greatly by the health or opposite condition of a, cow. When salt is given to excess, it is injurious and and causes an imense thirst, .but this does not necessarily make the milk more watery than is customary,. there is no reason to believe that this excess of water dilutes the milk. The milk is not made in any such way as would snake this possible. It , is produced by the breaking down of the grandular tissue of the udder and this never contains more than a. normal quantity of water. The kidneys are charged with • the re- moval of any excess of waterfrom the blood, and this drain, or outlet, if in good working condition, will always attend to • its own business, and if it does not, or cannot, for any, reason, the intik glands cannot; perform this function, but the cow becomes diseased at knee. Bat this is a question that the careful farmer will never Have to consider, . because he will always take care that such a supposed mistake will never happen. It is only the careless farmer who runs risk of giving his cows, or per- mitting them to get; too much sait. A Commissioner in. N. B.

In these'eases, the Callas were not set in the borders summers, but were given a six -months rest, a vacation that they bad well earned, A great deal depends on having the soil properly firmed about the roots when the planting is done. But it will need some care afterwards. The effect of frost is to loosen the soil, and also to lift it up with the roots which it encloses. It is quite common to see trees that have been set out in the fall, tilted and twisted by winds in'the early spring, the top of the tree being used as a lever. Sometimes props are put against the tree to hold it against the wind. But the frosts lifts the props as well as the tree, and by spring both are ready to fall over together. The best way to guard against this is by put- ting more earth around all sides of. the trunk, so as to prevent the soil from freezing so deeply. Tlie garden is always better for being fall plowed, and it can often be done with best advantage when the surface soil .is frozen an inch or so in depth: This will not interfere with the plowing. The frozen soil, turned to the bottom of the furrow latein the season, will often remain in that condition all winter. This will insure more thorough pulveriza- tion of the soil than can be got in any other way. ' Of. course after plowing the garden the surface should be left as rough as possible. Dragging will compact it too much, and make the freezing less effective. There is some waste of fertility in fall plowing, but gardens are usually very rich, and can afford to lose some fertility if what remains is put in more available condition as plant food In transplanting trees, or in plant- ing young trees directly from the nursery, either for shade or orna- ment, the trees themselves should be carefully selected, and the greatest possible care should be taken in re- moving them to preserve the largest possible quantity of living roots, and especially of the small fibrous root- lets on the sides and ends of the larger ones, for these furnish the true root mouths by whieh the tree is to be fed. It seems scarcely necessary to add that these rootlets should be kept .moist and as far as possible in the dark until they are again put into the ground. Very few trees that have been exposed after lifting to the sun and the wind for days or even under some circum- stances for hours, . are worth the trouble of planting and this is espec- ially true of shade trees.
