"If only i could tell them all I But how can 1, in spite of all their goodness?" She felt a little nervous when, after her arrival at the hotel, she entered the silting -room Lady Cruse had engaged and Cline face to face with lord Cruse. Though he had always been kind to her she still felt shy with him, nnd wonder- ed if his devotion to his wife would mnke lam, despite himself, really believe her innocent. For it was commonly said tent Lord Cruse believed, and did every- thing, that his wife wished. But as he took `sunbeam's hand and mulled into her face with his eyes full of kind sympathy, she knew that in his heart of hearts he ill not doubt her, end gained courage from the fact. "Poor Sunbeam, op you have been made lure scapegoat, hnvc you?" he said wetly, "well, we'll stand by you and help you through—every cloud has a sil- ver lining, you know, and even sun- beams get overclouded sometimes, don't they?"

"what else could I do?" exclaimed the girl in passionate tunes, her heart filling with despair as she read Duncan's stern face. "Your pearls were missing --they 1•.ad to be reoove,ed---" "I would rather have thrown them to Iho bottom of rho self than resew:• them al such a cost," interposed Lady (:ruse bitterly.

"To effluent," replied Eileen, naming tee c)iIIty town live miles off. She looked up at hire as she spoke, it world of appeal in her eyes; but he turned aside with an angry murmur, and moved over to the open window through which i.ady Caruso had nlneudy passed in starch of her hltcbnnd. "Adele, do you think me wrong?" im- pek.red Eileen, turning a pleading face to 1_ndy Larkin. "Not quite, dear," replied Adele, sooth- ingly. "Rut perhaps hasty. i can hardly believe Sunbeam could do such a thing. If only you had wailed until wo re- turned ! 1f only—" "Ah, but in n case like this you nnusl be prompt. lady (:ruse will realize that when her pearls are found. Now, of course. she thinks more of Sunbeam. And yet all along I guessed the girl was n sneak. You all believed in her too gt.ickly," She swept from the room as she spoke. She felt that rho anger and dis- appointment struggling within her would betray her if she remained with tier guests any longer. For, although she had dreaded Dancan's behaviour on hearing of Sunbeam's arrest, she had •expected more open support than sho had receival. "And that is all the thanks i get for wain° their things at nay own discom- fort !" she stormed as she pushed open the library door. Iiulf-way across the room she slopped. Tot at ono of the writing lables sat Dun- can, his face white and stern, his eyes intent on the work before him. "Duncan," she said, almost ul1ron- SCk)lLal)', "I .lid not know you were here, Ile raised his head and locked at her. She shivered. His eyes were so cold, they cut like steel. "I run going now," he replied stiffly. "1 have been writing to Sir George Cade, in ens° 1 c est see him, and—" "Sir GeoCe Cade I" she exclaimed, %vitt► n thrill of anger.

The color ebbed from her face, and her eyes widened with anger. "You are leaving Hinckley?" she ask- ed tier voice sounded weak and low_ above the tumult In her brain. "Yes. You see we fart that some one o'ght to be near Sunbeam—you have 1 been very cruel to her—she must see that we three, at all events, believe in her,," "But your--y'ou, you are nothing to her, why should you go ?" she detnond d quaveringly, her .light fierur swaying to and fro with the violence of the mo- tion that shook her.

When Lady Cruse's maid had burst Mkt Sunleuties 100111, folk,w'cd by Eileen and the vdingo policeman, and demanded the missing peach, Suubenni realized that after alt her father had suc- ceeded in his quest to some extent, and that the task she had set herself was to to harder than she had imagined. Iler horror and d:siress were mistaken at once for fearfte guilt as she listened in silence to the servant's excited accusa- tion, unable to defend herself in any way, and determined mere than ever to shield her father. But she did not expect such sudden measures lo be taken, and chew back with 11 cry as the policeman explained be, intention of taking her away at once. 'Then, reading hostility in Eileen's white face, she realized that her friends here absent end that resistance would be In vain. Su she allowed hits to take her away vitloi t a murmur, and passed through the hell lined with whispering, shocked servants, like a young queen walking to the scaffold, her head erect, her lips set in proud resignation. "As told as brass," was Iho niur'tnur lhnt swept towards her. But as she entered the closed carriage, the teals she had struggled so hard to keep back gushed forth, and she wept unresfraln- e(lly, ill spite of the constable's presence. "Cr yin' niu'L a bit of good:" he 'ut- tered. "You fork out them pearls, or fay what you've done with them, and temps they -ll la you off lightly as it's your Oral offence.' The words had the effect of restoring het self-control, and. remembering that it was wi.ser to keep silent. she turned het face to the window, checking the eegc r word: she long.d b utter. "Your first offence," the inan had said in w1iut he meant to be a concilia- tory lone, his eyes resting admiringly on her libilbled face. She shivered ns she recalled Them. Would every one say that? Knowing who and what she was, would not the whole world cam bee that she had merely done ,(chat et ery one expected. and That she would probably commit the like again very shortly? \\hat would Lady Cruse say? And Mr. Sinclair? It wns inmpos- t:Hee that they plena.' agree with a fol ..1 unkind Ignorant people they at Ietot would act differently !

ENEMY OF THE ORCHARD. Professor C. J. S. Bethune, M.A.. I1.C.L., of Department of Entomology in Ontario Agriculture College, Guelph, re- plying to a letter of inquiry from Mr. V. Eynon Pollard, 13owinanville, writes : The oyster -shell bark loose is not a vary dillicult insect to keep in control. \\'.• find the best remedy is to spray the trees thoroughly on any mild day at this lime of year with a welsh made of a pound and a hallo( lime. quickly slaked, lu a gallon of water. This k the pre- perlion, and as large a quantity may be made as you find necessary. The wash should be so thoroughly applied that every bit of the free from top to bottom shows while. Where a tree is at all badly affected it will be well to repeat the operation just before the buds open in spring. 1f wet weather should set in immediately after spraying, you may find that the lime has been washed off ; le that case it would be well to repent the operation, but if n few days go by without rain, the application will be satLsfaclory. The oyster -shell scalp spends the win - 10i in the egg stage, which are deposited by the female underneath the scale which covers her own body. The effect of the Ihno is partly to carry away the scales when it flakes off from the tree, mei thus removing the eggs. Where the lithe remains on the tree it prevent-, the eggs from hatching out. in the spring of the year, after the blossoms bravo fallen from the trees, if you watch any In- fested twigs.
