Evert at toot late season. of the year --it wes December, though not advanced beyoed a few days—the garden at Caldera. was rieli in color and prat= in greenery. And the weather evas so fair end wa.rm, there were euch balmy breaths from the ' eea and,soft airs from the bilis, such sweet mornings Of SUUSlittio and sucei Mellow afternoons, that the little househOld of the Queen spent but short indoors. Tho Queeu herself loved the open peter the tedious years of mephitic Bloomsbury (where as Todman says, "there is more 'burythan 'bloom' "); she loved to gaze at the rugged outline of the hills, to watoli tho tidos of tinted shadow that Rowed over them as the sun swung up and then down; she loved to drink in the mere senso of freedom that lives in a wide pros- pect, and to feel the cool, pure breath of her own lend. Nonr the foot of the garden was on aehour of (Rorie de Dijon roses, and there Maddalena passed most of her waking hours, the fairest. rose of her pleasaunce. At a tiny table she transacted much State business with Don Augustin; received mes- sengers with lists of dead and wounded, or of the siege of Palm City; gave a ready ear to tbis or that petitioner who believed that the Queen could set all things right; or signed documents signifying to Don A. that her Majesty desired to do such and such, to Senor B. that her Majesty commanded him to do as he had been bid on pain of her displeasure. . To every one that saw thus thron- ed among the roses the same thought came—that the Queen was very beautiful; that she was young, that she was indeed a Queen, but &as 1 that she looked so sad. Not that she did not snxilo on her people, for sho was happy in seeing them; but over the smile flitted a shadow of sorrow indefinable that made the smile strangely sweeter, and in her voice was a subtle tone that found in every heart a responsive chord, and inacie the hearer wonder if it was in such wise tho angels sang when Paradise was lost. "Ali !- said they, "she will be no longer sad when the Hispanialcm is driven out of Palmetto—She will sing aiie1 dance With the best of us thee.,Only Don Augustin knew that whatever good hap came to the Isle of Palms this silver thread of sorrow would - string alaeldalena's jewels for ever. Tho change in her did not escape the observant eye of the Orange Kine as he came down the path es - coined by Don Augustin, radiant with delight. To Bravo tbe return of Thomas Smith seemed an augury that the happy end was near. Maddalena rose with outstretched hands. "Mr. Smith 1 You have taken us by surprise 1" "Better I than Stampa, your Ma- jesty," he laughed. "The fact is I couldn't stay away any longer. I want to see for myself if my orange monopoly is to bold good." "Ah 1 you put it in that way.. Well —you shall sc:e, you shall see. But come: I an just going to breakfast under the roses. You must join. nee." "I have already breakfasted, ittae dame." "At eight o'clock ?" eyes." "OfT bacon and eggs ?" "What a. Briton 1" she lnughed. "But if you have come from Espole- to—have you?" "Front Espoloto, madame." • "Then you are ready for luncheon. Como, eft down, sir. You will join us, Don Augustin." "You are cut off from the world hero, madame, so I darosay I ant the first to bring you a certain piece of nows—g,00d noes. Tho Free State have thrashed Hispaniola." "That is indeed good news. 'When.? How ?" "When? Twelve days ago. And how ? I3y blowing them out of the water. But there is bettor news to ;lame." ,A merry twinkle lurked in the corner of the Orange King's eye, as he paused and helped himself to olives, "What do you think, med- itate, of the Free States', combined navies crossing the (neap to 13orn- bard. the principel ports of Hispan- iola ?" "Is it possible ?" cried Maddalena, while Dou Augustin, startled afresh out of his precision calm, stared at Mr. Smith with a htuadred eyes and a gaping mouth. "Does it not make your prospects brighter, Madalne ?" "It will certainly lower Hispanio- la's prestige." "More than that, madame, more than that." And again Mr; Smith Paused with that twinkle. "Tell .mef, tell mo," cried Maddale "Well, as Inc as their knowledge goes, the commanders of the Free States fleet regard 'Palmetto as His- paniolan territory. On their way 10 bl o eh ade, bombard, pulverize Sarralona, 'Perez, Almeduna, Pam- parivos, theY will naturally call at Paha City and demand its surren- der," Don Augustin's face clouded. Ho saw the fair island slip from Mad- do.lena's hands into those of task- masters as harsh as Hispaniola. Some such thought flashed into the Queen's mind, too, but her oyes Were on the Orange King's face, and. she saw nothing there but uncon- cern and anutsernent. • "Palm City," wont on Mi. Smith, surrender. It cannot resist attack by twelve battleships eand gunboats and torpedo destroyers." But if wo could take it first," cried Bravo. "It would be at the great °sponse ray friend," said Mr. Smith drily. "There is a mita cheaper wiiy than that." "And that Is "I am hero this rimming to lay my plan before your Majesty. May I explain it in my own way ?" "Surely, sir, surely." "The moment try agent at Rio cabled to me that the fleet had set out, I started for Palmetto. I cal- culate that the ships will bo off Para City on the morning of the day after to -morrow, or porbaps in the evening. Poehaps they- will come in at night with lights out, and make my friend Stampa rub his oyes When bo wakes in the morning. Anyway, and whatever the inten- tions of the Free States admiral, I want you to allow: rae- to intercept him before ho sights Palmetto." "Yes, yes," cried Maddalena, all impatience. "e want you, madame, to entrust me with a letter for hirne in which you explain your position, Ash for big co-operation, and promise pay- ment for his assistance—rather tho assistance of his governments. Goo.d Ele will accept or he will reject. If he rejects, he will win—temporarily: for Europe will not allow the Free States of South America to depart from- their adherence to the Monroe doctrine, and if the worst comes to tho worst Palmetto is still laispan- Iola's, and the struggle goes on from where it now stands. If he accepts, you will have to pay a million, per- haps two. And you can leave that to me." liteddalena rose to her feet, carried out of hereelf by the suggested speedy end of the fight, her face flusbed and her hands pressed to- gether. "0 1 if it might only be l if it might only be 1" "It may well be, madame, if you write the letter I spoke ofeeand—" ho. paused and laughed—"nrake it a nice one." She turned swiftly and looked at "11 the admiral Agrees to your prepesal, madame, in -four days there won't be a Hispaniolan eold- ler on. the island," • "There are eight thousand here acne," grumbled Bravo. "Mow do you propose to get rid of.them e Dump them in the pee ?" ' "Send them back to Hispaniola," said Smith shortly. "In balloons ? There aro no ships," "There will be ships when they no wanted," eame tho answer, still more shortly. "I see you have your plan, Mr, Smith," said Maddalena, with a frown at Don Augustia. "You will mo?"tell Smith' waved a hand of resigns. tion to the inevitablo. "A plan ? A very little one. Like the Free States, I also have a fleet. Twelve steamers of mine are now throe days north of Palmetto. They are ostensibly bound for tho West Coast of Africa for cargo. They wore under -coaled at Liverpool. They put ante Palm City for supplies, I'm no man of business if they. reach the West Coast this trip. I ra.ther think they will touch at Hispardoltin ports and lend more valeable eargo than rubber.

I should like to see Grant, if Don Augustin will direct me whore to find him." • 'As he uttered Hector's °area Mr. Thomas Smith geve one swift side glonce at Maddalena, and satisfied his suspicion. ' "I should. like to help yeti, Mr, Smith. 1 do not know What to say." "Madame, I cannot help you in this. Write as your honrt dictates.

A good many times farmers kceP their cows. in the barn until the grass in the pasture is rank, and then turn them rigbt out to get their living, dropping- at tlint time all hay and ground feed. This it a bad practice. The COWS, shut Up se long .away froni green feed, gorge themselves with the freSli grass, . Which tastes wonderfully good to them, with. the result that their i bowels are suddenly relaxed and a consequent weakening of the entire system folios* The cows suffer ,a marked loss of strength and vitality. s The best -way to get the cows ac- , customed to the change of- diet in springtime is to let the.m. Out a lite tle while :each day for a week: say. allowing them to get enough grass to partly satisfy their appetites. and them get thorn back to the yard. Every day during the 'time this pro- cess oing 'On lots of nice bright bay should bo given, together with it good ration of grotind feed pees ferably wheat bran and cornmeal. In this way the strength of the cow will be kept up, and her condition gradually enact° ready for the time when she will be sent to graze all day in the pasture. Almost every farmer has noticed that for a few days after the: cows are turned to pasture, especially 11 treated according to the plan men- eioned above of turning tbe cows suddenly out to grass, the cows will drop off in the amount of milk they give. This is undoubtedly due to the sharp turn in tbe method of feeding, and the tendency with most cows to roam all over the fields for a while when first released frean their long iraprlsonment. • • —the try of 'emu sold her, you sold her ?"
