"Yes, sir," said William. "Go at once to Smith the iron- monger, and order him to send some one round to fix a .spring bell on a till, Do you understand ?" "Quite, sir," replied William. Frithiof went on arranging some music which had just arrived, but he flushed deeply, and Mr. Horner, glad: to have found a vulnerable point of attack, did not scruple to make the most of his opportunity. "Why should 1 mind this vulgar brute ?" thought Frithiof,; as he forced himself to go on with his work with the airof quiet determin- ation which Mr. Horner _detested- i The miserable hours dragged on somehow, and at last, late in the afternoon, Foster eame up to him with a message. "Mr. Horner wishes to .speak to you," he said; "I will take your place here." Then, lowering his voice cautiously, "It's my opinion, Mr. Falek, that he is trying to goad you into resigning, or into an im- pertinent answer which would be sufficient to cause your dismissal." "Thank you for the warning," said Frithiof, gratefully. Mr. Horner replied to his knock, but did not glance round as he en- tered the room. r "You wished to speak to me, sir?" asked Frithiof. "Yes, when I have finished this letter, You can wait," aaid Mr. Horner, ungraciously. Mr. Korner signed his name with a flourish characteristic of his opin- ion sof himself, then swung round his chair and glanced at Frithiof: "Mr. Boniface lelit no instruc- tions as to whether. you were to at- tend as usual at St. James's Hall to -night," he began. "But sines no one else is used to the work I suppose there is no help for it." He paused, apparently expecting some rejoinder., but Frithiof merely stood there politely attentive. "Since you know the work, and are used to it, you had better at- ; tend as usual, for I should be vexed if any hitch should occur in the ar- ran geenents. But understand, pray, that';I etan ly disapprove of your „ _;... remaining ' in. our employ at'- all, and ' e' employ t ,at it is only out of necessity that y 5 sub to it, for I co nsidea .yoii , mix with respectable poo - ever the NNorvregiu,nz tele, `he frightened icer; nd harassed. ill have time for setae sup sited, pleadingly. id, passing Iter gams not huzigry, and gnus clothes and be i,ght faeney tome coffee," k1 to taersel .

Physical exhaustion had dulled the glow a inner comfort that had come to him onthe previous day. His oldhatred against thoee who succeeded once more filled his heart and .thought at one time he had felt curious to see Donate, and had heard all that Cecil had said in favor of the Italian's courage and unselfishness, yet now, in his bit- terness of soul, he began to hate the man merely because of his po- pularity. The architects ` of most English music -halls have scant regard for the comfort of the artistes. Here, sitting •face to faee on hard benches, were ranged 'to -night many of the first singers of the day. There was Sordoni, the good-natured English tenor and composer. There was Mme. Sardoni-Borelli, with her noirle and striking face and man- ner; besides a host of other cele- brities. But Carlo Donati haci not yet arrived, and Mr. Horner kept, glancing anxiously through the glass doors on to the staircase in hopes of catching sight of the great barytone. Frithiof lived through it all like a man in a dream. Mr. Horner turned to Frithiof at that moment. "Go and see whether Signor Do- nati has come," he said. "Itis song is next on the programme " Frithiof made his way to the cloak roera, and, as he walked through. the narrow room leading to it, he could distinctly hear the words of some one within. The voice seemed familiar to, him, "Badly received Well, you only failed +because of nervousness. In your second song you will he more used to things, and, you will see, it will go much better." "But you surely can never have had the same difficulty to struggle with?" said the young tenor, who, witli a very downcast fact,' stood talking to the newly arrived bary- tone. 'eNever N' exclaimed the other, with a laugh which rang through the room, "Ask Sardoni 1 He'll tell you of nay first appearance." Then, as Frithiof gave his mes- sage, the speaker turneclround and revealed to the -i orvv egiaaa. that face which had fascinated him so strangely hist before his illness—a face not only beautiful in outline and coloring, but full of rn unde- fined chasm, which made all theor- ies as to the conceit and objection- abiene's of successful. men fall to the +- round ''Thank: yon,'' he eat bowing in eply ; "1 win carne down at once," All went smeothly nutil, early in J, Pifitl'il 'i' 3101ttii\, The Great American Financier. the second part, the Italian: bury- tone was to .sang a sang with vtolira oblig at e, By some unlucloy aec$ dent Frithiof: forgot to place the ic-stand for the violinist;, and reeiving this as soon as they ,„ywore the ,�i�ntforn, Dona ti bi aselt lit it forward and put it in on It was but as trifinlg, oe- urrence, but quite sut.eient to rouse Mr, Horner, When the ,sine - ger returned he ologiz€ pro- fuaely, and turned upon Frithiof with a rebuke, the tone of which amide Donati'a eyes lash. "Pray do not make ,so mti<sh of it,"° he said, with a touch of dig. nay in his ,manner. Then return- iazg again ,from one of his journeys tin the platform, and noticing the expression of Frithiof's face, he paused to speak to him for a sno- nue n 't before returning to give the encore that was emphatically dei minded. It was not ,so much wh;a hesaid as his manner of eaying s" that caused Frithlee face brighten, and brought a frown Jarnmes Horner's brow. CHAPTER XXVI. Carlo Donuti had considerable ght into character; not only been born with this gift, but his wandering life had brought him in- fo contact with all sorts and condi tions of men, and had been an ex- cellent education to one who had always known how to observe, He was, moreover, of so sympathetic atemperament that he ca ld gen- erally tell in a moment when trou- ble was in the air, and the ridiou Iously trivial affair about the music- stand, which could not have dwelt in his mind for ,a minute on its own aocouut, opened his oyes to the re- lations existing between Mr. .ilor- net and the Norwegian. That something was wrong 'with the lat- ter be .had perceived when Frithiof' had first spoken Whits in the cloak- room, and now, having inadvertent- ly beenthe cause of bringing upon him 'a severe rebuke,, he was deter- mined to snake what aa'nends. Iay in his power, He cut short Mr. Horner's flatter- ing remarks and reiterated apolo- gies as to the slight contretemps. "It is of no consequence at ell," he said. `By the bye, what is the nationality of that young fellow? I like his faee." "He is Norwegian," replied Mr. Horner, glancing at Frithiof, who was arranging the platform for Mme. Gauthier, the pianiste. "You think, no doubt, that I spoke foo severely to him just now, but you do not realize what a, worthless fel- low he is. My partner retains 'him. merely out of charity, but he has been proved to be unprincipled and dishonest." The last few words reached Fri- thiof distinctly as he came down the steps; he turned ghastly pale, his very lips grew white; it was as though some one had stabbed him a;s he re-entered the little room, and the eyes that turned straight to the eyes of the Italian were full of a dumb anguish which Donati never forgot. Indignant with the utter want of kindness and tact which Mr. Horner had shown, he turned abruptly away without making the slightest comment on the words, but often through the evening, when Frithiof was engrossed in other things, Donati quietly watch- ed him, and the more he saw of hen the less he was able to believe the truth of the ` accustetion. Mean- time he was waiting for his oppor 4n the Tar voitsitssetsso,stsqs,itieessaso. The Round Dairy Barn. The -round barn bits a special ad- vantage in the work of distributing' silage to the cows. Feeding corn- menses at the chute where it as thrown down and continued around the cirele ending with the silage cart at chute again ready for the next ;feeding; The same is true: in feeding hay and ,grain, writes Mr. Wo 3. Fraser. Another great advantage is the $a,rge, unobstructed haymow. With the self-supporting roof there .are no timbers whatever obstructing the mow, which meat<is no dragging hay around or over posts or gird- ers. The hay carrier runs on a sir-' cular track around the meow, mid- way between the silo and the out- side wall and drops the hay at any desired point, which means the eabv- stag of 'ouch labor. The cirotalar construction is the strongest, because it takes advant- age of the lineal: instead of the breaking strength of the lumber, Each row of hoards rationing around the barn formas a hoop that holds the barn together. Any pieee of timber is ''airy times stronger onn a lineal pull than ou a breaking ,stress, - a ll e :posed surfaces of a round barn are circular, as both the sides and roof are arched, which is the strongest form of construction to resist wind pressure. Besides, the wind in striking it glances off, an< can get no direct hold on the walls or reef as it eau on the flat side or gable ab endsa to u- t, e of square or res ns$ lar structure. If the lumber is properly ,pleaed n a round barn rnueb of it wall per- +vo or mare functions, Every nw of siding; boards running round the building serves also as ice Band the same is true, of the rds and the arched rafters siding is put on vertically roof built dome shape, no ling is required inside or These are points of economy n the round eonstruction. Another item of economy in the circular barn is less framing Iaam- ber. This form has the :strongest possible construction' with the least lumber in the frame and the least bracing, not a single timber larger than a two by six being required. abovethe sill. It 1 The arched circular roof requires no support and no scaffolding: is needed inside during its construction. In, comparing tie 60 -foot round barn with a rectangu- lar barn of the sante area, the two barns should afford the cows the same amount of space on the plat- form. Allowing each cow in rho GO - foot ,round barn three feet six leach-. es in width at the rear of the plat- form, it will accommodate 40 cows and leave space for two passage- ways. But, in a rectangular barn only three feet four inches plat- form space need be allowed for each cow and the 7834 -foot barn, with two three-foot passageways across it for convenience in feed- ing, will accommodate 42 cows. While the rectangular barn has stall room for two or more cows, the round barn contains space the centre for a silo eighteen foot in diameter. The complete bilis for materials for these barns show the exact eav- ing in lumber on the 60 -foot round barn over the plank" and mortise frame 'rectangular barns, 36x73% feet. The lumber bills of the rectangu- lar barn show an increase in cost of 28 per cent. for the plank frame and 54 per cent, for the mortise frame. The round barn 60 feet in diameter, contains 118%, and the rectangular barn 225 lineal feet of wall, The 90 -foot round barn would hold 100 cows in two rows, headed together, 65 of which would: be in the outer circle and have three feet six inches each in width at the gut- ter. This leaves sufficient room for. feed alleys and walks and two pis- sageways, one three feet and the other seven feet wide for the ma- nure and feed carrier. All of this is outside of the central space for a silo twenty feet in diameter and 71 feet high, with a capacity of 620 tons of silageand in the mow there would still be an excess above the capacity of the rectangular horn of 33,000 cubic feet, which would hold 66 tons of hay or as much as, the entire mow of a barn 32x36 feet with twenty -foot posts.
