Miss Trevanion, suddenly, kissing her
ssith rapid, =expected warmth.
After this they separated for the
night and got to bed, and dreamed
their several drams of joy or sorrow,
as the ease might be.
Sir George and his Wife, in their
rbone at about the same time as the
foregoing conversation had been held,
were having a few words together, on
the same subject.
"Well, Carry," said Sir George, "you
svere wrong, I think, my love; I don't
believe Denzil Younge ie as much
taken with Mabel as You gave me to
understand, eh?"
"No, but he is dreadfully in love
with Mildred," his wife said.
"Well, nothing could be better,"
"Nothing could be worse, you mean."
"Because lase will refuse him."
"In the name of patience, for
what?" demanded Sir George., explo-
sively. "Is it because he is rich, hand-
some and prosperous?"
"No; but simply because his father
has sold cotton."
'Paddle -de -dee" exclaimed Sir
George, with great exasperation, and
he strode up and down the room twice
with rapid, hasty footsteps. "Look
here, Carry," he then said, "something
must be done. My attain altogether
are in a very critical state. Bolton
told me so in as many Words the other
day. He said that I could not weather
the storm much longer—that I had
eot, in fact, a leg to stand on (these
were his own words, I assure you)—
that money must be got somehow and
so on. And where the deuce am I to
get ready money, do you zuppose?
Every method of procuring it that I
know of has been used up long ago.
I see nothing but absolute ruin star-
ing me in. the face. And here is this
wilful girl actually throwing away
fifty thoneand pounds a year—every
penny of of it, as sure as my name
is 'Trevanion!"
illy this time Sir George was greatly
excited, and was pacing up the carpet
and down again, with his arms crossed,
under the tails of his dress coat Lady
Caroline had • subsided into silent
weeping.
"Well, well, there is no use in an-
ticipating birils," continued her hus-
band, presently, who having isucceede'd
in raising the stormwas now equally
desirous of laying it; "perhaps—who
knows?—affairs haay brighten."
"If she would even encourage Load
Lyndon," said poor Lady Caroline,
dolefully, still weeping.
"Ay, just so," returned Sir George;
"but how she could throw over Younge
for such a heavy substitute as Lyndon
passes my comprehension. I declare I
should prefer 'Denzil with no ante-
cedents than that fellow with all his
aneestors. Besides, Lyndon's rent roll
is barely twenty thousand a year—not
even half the other's."
"Still, I think that would do very
aieelY," Put in lady Caroline, meekly,
"If she Could only be itideced to look
kindly tn. any one, I should be otitis -
tied."
"So should I, so long as the 'some
ern' had Denzil's money," observed
Sir George, and Went back to his
dressing -room to finish his prepara-
tions for bed -time, and think over the
incoesistent condeet ,of his daughter
Mildred.

"Yes," said Mabel, eagerly; "and

"That is where she is sirrilling it,

mischievously, turning her face co-
quettishly in his direction: "it will
be the right man in the right place

"Is that a thing to be wondered
at?" said Blount, laughing, "consid-
ering the heartless manner in which.
I have been snubbed'and contradict-

amiable would be more than human -
nature eould compass,"
At this moment there came a
thundering 'knock at the hall door.
Mildred. being in dreamland, was
rudely brouget back to earth,
"Oh, w.hat is that?" she was asked.
" 'Tis but a gentle tapping, tapping,
at our ehamber door," relied Eddie,
reassuringly.
"Who can it be?" said Mab, all
eager curiosity.
"Sir George, most likely,' answered
Denzil, smiling at her eagerness. "I

"No," said Mab; "he always comes
In by the kitchen way, or by his

The inner door opened and Frances
Sylverton came forward in full rid-

the chill evening air, her hair slight-

"What is it about? Nothing serious,
I hope, Frances?" asked Mildred,
anxiously.
"Turnips, I think," Said Frances,
glancing at the note she carried in
her hand.
"Turnips!" repeated Mildred, dis-
dainfully, "As if turnips could not

it was a matter of life or death! In-

DODO'S KIDNEY PILLS
CURED HIM.
and in Miller, in bronze and brass, and
copper, la ivory and in wood, perhaps
the wideet reaching results have ac-
crued from the arts and crafts stigma
ateci with ceramics, and while Egypt,
Greece and Italy all contributed large-
ly, it.is safe to sae' that be time Orient
belongs by far the greatest share.
Oteer undisputed facts in this con-
nection, supported by hiptory and tra-
dition, are these whioh fix -the initia-
tion and development of the various
branches of ancient ceramic art. with
the rulers of the several nations prac-
tising thena.
The nianufacture ef fine pottery
seems to have been a Royal preroga-
tive, So much so was this the casein
Oriental cities that even the color ot
tee -ware produced was under aissolate
control, and any infraction of the
standing order was punishable in the
most severe forms. Particularly was
this the case with the color known to
tho .Celestial as the "Yu-Yal," ',he
blue of the sky Been between the
clouds after rain," which was the ex-
clusive right of the Imperial house-
hold for use on its pottery. Illuei in
great variety have largely influenced
the artist in pottery throughout all
ages, but to China belong the credit
of having originated most of them.
As the "YusTao", is, among the very
earliest of which we have distinct
mention in.the history of Chinese por-
celain, it may be set clown as a pion-
eer of the mealy blues introdeced and
received with more or less favor dur-
ing later periods,* and possessing
names of- equally poetic derivation,
such as "moonlight blue," "liquid
dawn," and "the blue of the prune
skin," while the names of others, such
as "peacock," "periwinkle," "sap-
phire," "lapis" and. "steel" suggest
their own origin, and others possess-
ing distinctive features were the "alas
zarine" or "powder -blue," and the "Mo-
hammedan" blue.

before my eyes, and I had a dragging
sensation mess the loins. My limbs
-were helvy and I was always tired.

to say that two boxes made me well.

The "Stockholm system" of allowing
each citizen only a fixed quantity of
spirituous drink, which has inaugu-
rated just after the war started, has
now • been extended to thirty-one of
the hundred districts in Sweden. The
system which is now in operation was
devised by Dr. Ivan Brett. It allows
every citizen in good standing to buy
one liter and no more of spirituous
liquor every five days.
To make, this elan feasible each per-
son is provided with a small book re-
sembling a commutation railroad tick-
et, froxn which a coupon is torn every
time the consumer buys his liter of
whiskey, brandy, comma, punch,
schnapps or whatever kind of alcohol-
ic beverage he fancies. At tlie same
time his book is stamped with the date
of the purehase, so that it is clear to
the dealer when he made his lasts pur-
chase. Without showing his book no
citizen. of Stockholm has the remotest
chance of obtaining a bottle of liquor
anywhere in the city.
It is true that in some cases, how-
ever, exceptions are made. If one can
persuade the authorities that on acs
count of his social position and tho
demands of eenstant entertainment
one liter every five days is totally he
ndequete and if the authorities are
convinced that such a person can be
trusted with more liquor without abus-
ing the privilege conferred upon him
he is then given a special license to
perches° two, three or more liters, ac-
cording to the circumstances. On the
other hand, if the person is a drunk-
ard, has a police recerd or has in any
other Way incurred the displeasure of
the authorities he in alloWed no liquor
at all.

Careless Driving. '
As motorcars multiply in numbers
it is evident that increasingly careful
driving is called for. The driver, who
"hits her up" endangers not only his
own safety, but the safety of ether
driving is called for, The driver, who
fail to slacken speed when they come
to cross streets. There are drivers
who clash around corners or across
a boulevard at a high speed. It can-
not be too strongly emphasized that
the really competent driver always
has his car under condole that he als
ways drives .on the theory that every
other driver may be careless or may
lose his head. Caution marks the
competent driver. Recklessness be-
longs only to the jays—Kansas City

ONE IMPORTANT FACT.
(Ottawa Free Press)
ieut for one fact, whleh is important,
Sir Sam is quite justified in saying that
Allison is as much entitled to make
money out of the war orders as any Inv-
•veyur of "sausages, boots, or breeches,"
The minister has, however, himself an-
nounced on the floor of Parliament that
he chose Allison as his "guide and coun-
sellor" in the buying of war supplies,
and has held him up to our eyes as a
gentleman animated only by the sincer-
est patriotism without a tinge of cern-
inerciallism or personal selfishness.
