He had no doubt as to the willingness of his tool. He took a bottle of brandy from a drawer and helped himself to a liberal dose. Wailer had expressly forbidden anything of the kind, but it was no time for nice medical Obedience. The grateful stimulant had its immediate effect. Then. Rea- son rang the bell, and after a time Williams appeared tardily, "You are to go down to Barnes and ask him to send a cab here as soon as possible," Henson said. "I have to go to London by the first train in the morning." Williams nodded, with his mouth "I sanest know. I tried to manipu- late it for him, but the instrurneut was out of order." ".1 know. I had a pretty shrewd idea what our cousin was going to do. You see, I was listening at the door. Not a `very ladylike • thing to do, but one must fight Henson with his own tools. When I heard him ask for the telephone directory I ran out and nipped ono of the wires by the bathroom, Prank, it wotitd have been far wiser if you hadn't came." Littimer nodded gloomily. There was something tike tears in his eyes. "1 know it-," he said. '`I hate the place and its dreadful associations. But I wanted to see Chris first. Did she say anything about me before— before---" "My dear boy, she loved you al- ways. She knew and understood, and was sorry.. And she never, never forgot the last time that you were wide open. He was astonished mid in the house." not a little alarmed at the ?strength Frank Littimer glanced across the and vitality of this man. And only room with a shudder. His eyes a few hours before Williams had learnt with deep satisfaction that Henson would be confined to his bed for some days. Henson dressed at length and pack- ed a small portmanteau. But he had to sit on his bed for some little tine° and sip a further dose of bran- dy before .he could move farther. Af- ter all there was no hurry. A full hour was sure to elapse before the Ieisurely Barnes brought the cab to the lodge -gates. Henson crept downstairs at length and trod his catlike way to the library. Once there he proceeded to make a minute iuspection of the telephone. He turned the handle just the fragment of an inch and a queer smile came over his face. Then dwelt with fascination on the over- turned table with its broken china and glass and wilted flowers in. the corner. "It is not the kind of thing to for- get," he said, hoarsely. • `I can see my father now—" "Don't,", Enid shuddered, "don't recall it. And your mother has nev- er been the stun since. I doubt if she will ever bo the same again. from that day to this nothing has ever been touched in the house. And FT'enson comes here when he can and makes our lives hideous to us." "I fancy I shook him up to -night," Littimer said, with subdued triumph. "He seemed to shudder when I told hini that I had found Van Sneck," Enid started from her chair. Her he crept as silently upstairs, opened eyes were shining with the sudden the window of the bathroom quint- brilliancy of unveiled stars. ly, and slipped on to the leads. There were a couple of insulators here, against the wire of one of which Henson tapped his knuckles "You have found Van Sneck!" she whispered. "Where?" "Why, in the Brighton Hospital. Do you mean to say that you don't gently. The wire gave back an an- know about it, that you don't know sweing.,.twang. The other jangled limp and loose. "One of the wires cut," Henson muttered. "I expected as much. Maclaine Enid is getting a deal too clever I suppose this is some sug- gestion of her very astute friend David Steel. Well, I have given Mr. Steel one lesson in minding his own business, and if he interferes further I shall have to give him another. He will be in gaol before long charged with attempted murder and robbery with violence, and so exit Steel. Af- ter that the girl will be perhaps chary of seeking outside assistance. And this will be the third I have had to get rid of. Heavens! How feeble I feel, how weak I am. And yet I must go through this thing now." He staggered into the house again and dropped into a chair. There was a loud buzzing in his ears, so that he could hardly hear the murmur of 'yokes in the 'drawing -room below. This was annoying, because Henson liked to hear everything that other folks said. Then he dropped off into a kind of dreamy state, coming back presently to the consciousness that he had fainted. Meanwhile Frank Littimer had joined Enid in the drawing xoom. The house was perfectly quiet and stili by this time; the dust -cloud hung on the air and caused the lamps to burn with a spitting blue game. End's face looked deadly pale against her black dress. • "So you have been seeing Regin- ald," tn- ald,, she said."Why—why did you do it?" "I didn't mean to," Frank mutter- ed. "I never intended him to know that I had been in the house at ail. But I was passing his room and he heard me. He seemed to know my footsteps.

Farmer George would rate him a jolly good fellow, and tell how he would sit in the kitchen over a mug of ale; whilst Farmer John swore at his landlord as a hard -fisted, grasping miser devoid of the bowels of compassion. At the end of an hour you would bo utterly bewildered, not knowing what to believe, and prepared to set the whole village down as a lot of gossips who seemed to mind every- thing but its own business. And, perhaps, Lord Littimer might come riding through on. his big black horse, small, lithe, brown as maho- gany, and with an eye piercing as a diamond drill. One day he looked almost boyishly young, there would be a smile on his tanned face. And then another day he would be bent in the saddle, huddled up, wizened, an old, old mail, crushed with the weight ofyears and sorrow.' In sooth he was a man of moods and contradictions, changeable as an April sky, and none the less quick- tempered and hard because ho knew that everybody was terribly afraid of him. And he had a tongue, too, a lashing, cutting tongue that burnt and blistered. Sometimes he would be quite meek and -angry under the reproaches of the vicar, and yet the same day history . records it that he got off his horse and administer- ed a sc:..nd trashing to the village poacher. Sometimes he got the best of the vicar, and sometimes that worthy man scored. They were good friends, these two, though the vicar never'swerved in his fealty to . Lady Littimer, whose cause he always championed. But nobody seemed to know anything about that dark scandal. They knew that there had been a dreadful scene at the - castle seven years before, and that Lady Littimer and her sou had left never to return. Lady Littimer was in a madhouse somewhere, they said, and the son was a wanderer on the face of the earth. And when Lord Littl met 'died every penny of the proper- ty, the castle included, would go . to her ladyship's nephew, Mr. Reginald 'Henson. In spite of the great cloud that hung over the family Lord Littimer did not seem to have changed. He was just a little more caustic than ever, his tongue a little sharper. The servants could have told a dif- ferent story, a story of dark moods anddays when the bitterness of the shadow of death lay on their mas- ter. Few men could carry their grief better, and because Littimer carried his grief so well he suffered the more. We shall see what the sorrow was in time. There are few more beautiful places in England than Littimer Castle. The house stood on a kind of natur- al plateau with many woods behind, a trout stream ran clean past the nig flight of steps leading to me hall, below were terrace after ter- race of hanging gardens, and to the left a sloping, ragged drop of 200 feet into the sea. To the right lay a magnificently-ti1nbered park, with a herd of real wild deer—perhaps the only herd of this kind in the coun- try. When the sun shone on the grey, walls they looked as if they had been painted by some cunning hand, so softly, were the greys and reds and blues blended. Inside the place was a veritable art gallery'. There were hunndreds of ' pictures and eugxavings 'there.` All round the grand staircase ran a long, deep corridor, filled with pic- tures, There were alcoves here fitted up as,sitting-roores, and in mostof them sonic gem or another washung.. When the full flood of electric light was turned on at night the effect was almost dazzling. There were few pictures in the, •gallery without a history. Lord Littilner had many hobbies, but .not one that interested him like this, There Were hiuidreds of rare birds shot by him in different parts of the world; the corridors and floors wore,coveied by steins the spoil of his rifle; here and there a stuned bear preeted startling; but the pictures and prinnts were the great anmeement Of his lordship's lonely life. 17e passed along the corridor now tering and excretory systems quid en- tirely rid the body of all poisonous waste matter: MR.

The feeder must watch his animals, and if too great a loose- ness of the bowels is observed, give less, first making sure that scour- ing is not caused by sour pails, cold mills or wet, unclean quarters. As soon as the milk pail is taken away, some clean, fine hay is placed before them, and they aro taught to eat, it, instead of sucking on some convenient object. After they corn mense eating hay, a daily allowance of grain, consisting of wheat, bran and middlings, is given at noon, be- ginning with less than a pint daily,. and increasing the hay and grain ration as the calf grows, seldom per- mitting the skintmilk to exceed three or 3y, quarts twice a day. As the amount of milk fed is, not sufficient to quench thirst, at six or eight. weeks old £ho calf will begin to take a little water which should be warmed slightly in cold weather.

An ingenious calculation in the English Registrar-General'e annual report for 1902, shows that as be- tween a e-tween'a bachelor and widower of the same age—whatever that age may be—it is mare likely that the w!dower will remarry than that the 'bachelor will marry. But as be- tween a bachelor and a widower eel» eeted without regard to age it is less likely that the widower will re- marry than that the bachelor will marry, because it is probable that the widower is several years the older. Of the 523,500 persons Who married in 1902, 419 were divorced persons, Forty sesta. per 7.,000 of the wives were under age, Of the men 91 per 1,000 were Widlowers, and 68' per 1,000 of the WolYtett were widows, An albatteoss has been known to fatless' it ship for two rnonuhat with- towards the great oriel windrow at out over- having bash seen to alight, SCROFULA Scrofula may be described as " scattered consumption.

Then again, there are often manj; little jobs of carpentry and tinker- ing on the farm which could easily be done by the farmer if he wouloi only try. In order to do this in the best manner possible, the amateur should provide himself with a good set of tools. Among the tools that should be kept in the workshop on every farm are the following : A brace and set of bite rip, crosscut and keyhole saws; a steel square; a pair of dividers; a tir-square; at least, two kinds of planes, gauge, level, square, oil, stone, drawing knife, a half dozen chisels of differ- ent size; hand ax; hanuners; hatchets and a grind -stone. Provide the workshop with' a • work bench and possibly an anvil. Such an outfit can be bought without any • great expenditure Of money and its price may be saved many times over dur- ing the year. Not only is .this say- ing due to the dollars•that it would cost to have the work done by a re- gular mechanic but in the saving of time required to take the work to the -nearest town daring m abus seas- on or at a time when the black- smith or the machinist is rushed with work.
