"Here is the spot you Mean," she

set vigorously to work to prepare his
rod and ohoose his 'choicest fly, a

ing to it, "if I stood there I could see
you better and be nearer to you.' I
"That would ba an advantage to me,'
he remarked, calmly, witleout rem)ov-
ing his eyes fiora his flybook ; "in a

your hand, I can spring there easily,"
said she.
"1 deuht it; it is further than yon,

"No, I need not give you all that

"It would not give me any trouble. '
he said; "on the contrary, it would
be a pleas,ure, And if you were to
jump short, and get wet, I should
never forgive myself. Besides, think
of the dreadful scolding I should re-
ceive from Mr. Blount."
"I don t think you would," remarked
Katherine, dryly. "Come, how long

"When you speak to me in that

persuasively.
"No, thank yon. I would not let you
imagine me so helpless."
"The risk be on your head!' cried
; and springing to the rocky stone
in question, he stretched out his hand
to her.
It was a considerable distance, but
Miss Blount cleared it successfully,
and landed high and dry beside him.
"Now go beck to the bank and try
your luck" she said.
"Is one ever lucky when overlooked
by a waraan ?" asked. Warrenne, rue-
fully. "I feel as if the eyes of Eur-
ope were upon me, and know I shall
sink forever in your estimation as a
distinguished pupil of Isaak Walton."
"Don't be shy." said .Katherine, "or

empty-handed. Indeed, I think I
would rether the poor pretty little
things should escape.'
ri knew a man who went oat nine
times with two girls of his acquaint-
ance, fishing -very pretty girls, they
were too -and not one fish did he
catch during the entire time. On the
tenth day he went alone, and caught
three dozen; and of course they didn t
believe it, and said he bought them.
They used to chaff him; awfully about
it, and tell every one in an innocent
way that they adored going fishing
with Captain Browne, because he never
hurt their feelings by killing, any-
thing, If I am equally unfortunat-e to-
day, yon must promise no,t to laugh
at me. If you do I will never forgive
you.'

"I will make no rash promises.
When the ninth day eomes I shall de-
cide on my conduct,"
"Do you mean that you will come
risking with me for nine days? In
thought that I fancy I should order
a new suit. I am not sure, but I
think I should."
"I would not encourage extravag-
ance for the world. But I don't mind
going fishing with yen now and then."
She had to call out, to hixia pretty
loudly now, as he had deserted his
eirst position and had gone further
down the stream to tree his luck else-
where.
The sluic,e of the mill stream had
grown old and rotten. It had been
tretrabling to its fall for some tirae
past. The heavy rains of the previ-
cue day had given the finishing touch,
and with a sudden craeli, a dull rattl-
ing, it gave way, anddown came the
water with a rush. Onward it came
to where Katherine stood, half fright-
ened, yet hardly understanding -not
the danger, certainty, because there
was Itttle„ but --the discomfort of her
position, until the water, covering
the stone and rising to her feet, skew-
ed it to her.
"Sir Mark I' she cried, eagerly.

totally impraeticable. .

for a considerable way through, the
meadows searcely heeding their wet

in their yeung veins.
"1 don't think you will corae fishing

they stopped to recover breath. "When
we started this morning, yom little

Katherine, with a comical smile.

At the manor they 'always dined,
early -that is, about five o'clock ;
after wlaich, between, eight and nine,
there was regularly laid cavil a certain
meal called tea, -the most delightful-
ly unceremonious, agreeable'meal any
one could Possibly conceive. All
formality was expressly forbidden,
ererybady took care of himself, and
tea and coffee, fruit, cold meat, a-nd
steaming tea cakes were blended to-
gether in the happiest contusion.
During the summer months it was well
known throughout the neighborhood
that at this particular hour the
Mounts were more pleased than at any
other time to see their visitors, and
many were the merry meetings that
took place at the oldi manor while the
warm weather lasted.
Sir Mark, being
only too glad of an
opportunity thatbrought him to Miss
Biount s side, was in the habit of com-
ing over at least fowl nights in every
week from Warrenne Hall to receive
a cup of coffee and twatalt Kather-
ine s delicate hands as they passed
merrily here und there among the
gilded china. The sunanaer had been
renaarkably wet and cold -so mnohl so
that the following season, .as though
ashamed of its comrades churlishness,
had shone out with unusual'splendor,
and though •it -was now, the middle of
September, the welather was sq warm
and bright and sunny that one could
easily imagine July to have; gone as-
• tray from its natural. placeand turn-
ed up again in the heart of brown -
tinged autumn.
Warreearee.,--who had arrived at that
unsatis2actory stage of his tore af-
fairs when a man feels restless and
generally uneasy if debarred from a
sight of his divinity for a whole day-
bed strolled over this evening from
his own plaee, a walk of about two
miles and a half, throulgh the sur-
rounding , woods and intermediate
fields, to see Miss Blount. At her gar-
den gate he met her just setting out
for a distant padd,ock to criticise a
certain colt, which she fondly hoped
might prove "after her own heart."
Now Katherine was at all times
slightly peculiar in the point of dress
-a peculiarity that at intervals might
almost be called oad, not to say fan-
tastical; and to -night, about an hour
before Sir Mark's arrival, feeling tired
and listless with nothing to do -Black-
wood having gone out after dinner to it
fteighboring farm upon some buziness
of his uncle s - she had gone up stairs
to an old lumber' more, when, ;poking
here and there in a vague, unthinking
manner, she had come suddenly upon
a rich, black satin dress of her moth-
er's fresh and good, certainly, but
extremely old-fashioned--whieh had at
once taken her girlish fan*. ,
She tried it on, it fitted to perfece
tion, almost as though it had been
made expressly for her, and, having
been originally intended fax full dress,
leaving the arms and neck quite, bare,
seemed. the very thing for such it
warm, enareating evening ad the pre-
sent. '
She would go down: stairs and see
what Ellaekwood would say to her

"You aro looking only too

over to her side and speaking( in a

• After which gracious permission on
the part of the majestic little lady,
they sauntered along together through
the soft velvet grass,
one side of them t rose a tall
quick -set hedge, which effectually
shielded from their view a narrow
graveled path that< wound its secluded
way directly to the house, and from
which, about a hundred yards further
on, one had access by a rustio stile in
a breach in the hedge into ;the field
where they now were. When they
had come to within about fifty paces of
this stele, Miss Blount stopped sudden-
ly, and glanced up at her companion
with a half -amused smile.
"What is it?" he asked.
"My shoe," she answered; "it has
come undone; the string is loose, and if
I go another step it will certainly
come off altogether."' •
"Let nee fasten it for you," Sir Mark
proposed, gravely, and Miss Blount
having marmured that he was "very
good," he forthwith went abwri Oris his
knees and took her beautiful little foot
almost reverently in his hand.
It so happened ,' that just at this
moment, as ill luck would have it,
Blackwood Craven was returning by
the graveled path from,. seeing after
his uncle's business, and as he stepped
on the stile, preparatory to entering
the field, with the fond hope in ,tis
heart, poor fellowi that he should
somewhere near the garden meet hia
cousin Katherine, the following tab-
leau met his eyes.
Sir Mark Warrenne was kneeling on
the grass, his fair handsome head bent
over 1Vliss Blount's foot as it rested. on
his knee, while she was steadying her-
self comfortably by leaning her hands
on the stooping baronet's shoulder.
The shoe took a very long -in fact,
a remarkably long-time to fasten;
either Sir Mark was unused to such
tasks - as most probably he was -
and therefore was awkward in accom-
plishing it, or else he found his occupa-
tion the most agreeable he had ever
undertaken, and wished to linger over
it. Who shall decide?
Certain, it is, however, that twa
whole minutes elapsed before, it was
considered safe for , Miss Blount to
place her foot upon the ground once
more, and when at length it was pro-
nounced ready, Sir Mark, as though
unwilling to part with it without ren-
dering it homage, bent down and pres-
sed his lips most . fervently to the
dainty stocking that covered the
high -arched instep.
Miss Blount first frowned at this lite
tle act on the young man's part, after
which she smiled and murmured a de-
mure little "Thank youl" and then
Blackwood Craven, with a groan that
was half a: curse dropped down from
the stile -whereon he had been sitting
quite unobserved by the other two, -
and advanced rapidly to meet them.
The passionate pride of his nature
stood him in good stead here( blanch-
ing, his whole face certainly, but leav-
ing his smile as unembarrassed and
pleasant as usual,
"Gclod-evening, Warrenne,"elis said,
carelessly, holding out hie hand. "1
faneied somehow all day that you
would ba down this evening. I want
to speak to you; by and by about that
pointer of yours. Going to -see the Duke,'
Katherine? I hurried back quick as
I could to accompany you, but tOW
you have Sir Mark it doesn't matter,
and it happene very well, as I have
some litters to write. But" --e with a
smile -"do not be longer than you can
help, dear, as I want my coffee badly,
and, besides, the dew is beginning to
fall heavily,"
With which little brotherly 6 peech,
and a parting kimily touch upon her
shoulder, he wont on his way, ,to all
outward seeming perfeetly composed.
Perhaps he inaposed upon Sir Mark
--future eveots proved that he did,
more or less -but on his eousin he cer-
tainly dia. not. She had known him
too long not to understand by this
time, what alone, could whiten his

TIM SAN JUSE SCALE,
COMMISSIONERS REPORT vim
AlE OVERESTIMATED.

Money.
That the damage to fruit tree/4 lI
the Provinee of Ontario by reason of
the ravages of the San Jose scale hits
been somewhat eveeestimated was one
of the salient points brought oue by
the commiseion appointed by the Ong
tario Government to investigate the
matter. The report was received by
the Minister of Agriculture P. few
days ago, and recommended that fur-
ther operations be carried on to ex-
ternaluate the pest if possible. The
commissioners appointed were Dr,
James Mills, Chairman, President of
tb)e Agricultural College at Guelph;
Prof. John Dearness of London, and
W. 11. Bunting of St. Catharines. ,
The questions touching the opera-
tion of the San Jose scale were, brief-
ly ; The localities iia which it existed
outside of the Niagara section and
sex and Kent; if it was confined
those sections, and whether the de-
struction of the infested trees would
check . the further spread; if it was
predicable to combat it by the means
before adopted with hope of Suceess;
as to the danger through the scale be-
ing carried from the United States
side of the Niagara River, and the
means that might be teken to combat
this; whether opposition to the pro-
visions of the scale act was unanimous
or whether adversity. of opinion exist -
tad, in the infested areas and in the
• aninfested areas; what changes might
be made in the mode ofprocedure; how
the work of inspeetion had been per-
formed ; that the commissioners make
any suggestions to lead to a complete
suppression of the pest.
OPENING OF THE INQUIRY.
The inquiry, was started on June 20,
and ended July 14, the commissioners
visiting the Counties of Lincoln, Wel-
land, Wentworth, Elgin, Kent and Es-
sex, in Ontario, also the 'New York
side of the Niagara River, and Cataw-
ba Island in Ohio. One hundred and
sixty-eigeht .witnesses were examined
altogether.
As to the extent of the infestation,
the greatest is in one corner of Nia-
gara Township, near Niagara -on -the -
Lake, and in the Township of Barwick,
Kent County, in the neighborhood of
Gould's Postoffice.- Tlaere is limited
infestation at Kingsville, and small-
er ones at St. Catharines, Winona, Bur-
lington and near Chatham. In 91
other cases trees planted within the
last two years were found infested.
These were all destroyed, a‘nd this
year's inspection failed to discover
scale in any but 13 out of the 91 places.
scale was found in five nurseries, but
the infested stock was destroyed.
While the worst areas of infestation
were not large they were in good fruit
districts, and the inspector estimated
it would be necessary to destroy 156,290
trees to be reasonably sure of extrem-
inating the scale.
DESTRUCTION NOT A REMEDY.
The commissioners are in doubt as
to the possibility of checking the fur-
ther spread of the scale and eventually
exterminating it by the destruction of
the trees as provided, by the San Jose
scale act. While the inspector thinks
the scale can he exterminated by
prompt and vigorous enforcement of
the act the commissioners incline to
the opposite opinion, and they are sat-
isfied the result ca.n be secured only
by a very large expenditure of money
and something like a guarantee that
the work will be done promptly and
the object undoubtedly accomplished.
There is not much ground for alarm
as to danger of reinfestation from the
United States side of the Niagara River
the commissiouers believe
The opposition to the provisions
of the scale act, the commissioners
state, Is not unanimous. The major-
ity of those whose orchards are , in-
fested or in immediate danger of in-
festation are strongly opposed to the
enforcement of the act on the present
lines, because the compensation is
very much less than it should be, and
because the owners are not coneulted
in any way), either as to the variety,
age, condition or value of the tree to
be taken out. Many of them also add
as a third reason for their conviction
that the extermination of the scale is
impossible. Nearly all these main-
tain that they should be allowed the
option of treating their trees. Nine -
tenths of the witnesses whose orch-
ards are not supposed to be in immedi-
ate danger are in favor of the act, but
advises an 'amendment which would
provide for larger compensation, not
less than 59 per cent. 'of the value of

DAMAGE OVERESTIMATED.
Who Icommissioners have been un-
able to form a definite and relieble
judgment as to the vitality of the scale
and the injury likely, to be clone it by
the Canadian climate. They were
forced to the conclusion, howeyer, that
the damage in Ontario has been some-
what overestionated. In regard to
complaints about inspection, the com-
missioners find that they have arisen
in most cases from owners and on-
lookers, not knowing the instructions
under which the inspectors were work-
ing. While with exceptional instan-
ces the work of inspection has been
faithfully done, still a good deal of ir-
ritation and ill -feeling has been caus-
ed by inspectors entering orchards
without informing the -owners, and by
the severe blazing of trees with axe
and spade. They tbink that in future
a less offensive manner of marking
trees should, be adopted, and they ex-
press the opinion that in the past there
has sonaetim.es been an apparent lack
of due regard for the feelings and na-
tural rights of owners.
The comniissioners recommend that
the work of inspe6tion be continued for
some time in a modified way; that
none but certified and approved men
be elmployed, that the imApector be
authorized to destroy at qnce all
shrubs and trees which show signs of
serious injury from the scale or have
their trunks and principal branches
injured by the softie; single infested
trees and shrubs of unprofitable varie-
ties or in an unhealthy condition, even
though they may not be very much
injured by th escade; single infested
branches or limb e on trees which op -
pear to be otherwise free from infec-
tion; that all infested trees and shrubs
exceptthe above and all exposed trees
be - treated according to the
MOST APPROVED METHOD,
that large discretionary powers be giv-
en to the inspector in dealing with iso-
lated infestations in districts which are
otherwise free, or supposed, to be free,
from the scale. This work should be
done by the Government, but the own-
er of the trees should pay for the me-
terial and board the men and horses
during the time of treatment. Owners
of trees not so badly infested should
be required to treat them by a pre-
scribed method once a week, at least
from the time of.. notice till the 15th
of October... Owners of trees should
he paid one-goalie:ea.of their value
without -discount, tha fruit on the tree
to he regarded as part of its value. The
method of valuation should be modi-
fied, so that the owner may be repre-
sented in some ,way. The fumigation
of nursery stoak should be done under
official supervision, and nurserymen
required to attach to every parcel of
stock sold a certificate of fumigation,
The suggestions of the comtniesion-
ers are: -
That the utmost care be taken to
prevent the scale froxn. spreading,
That valuable trees be not destroyed
when it may seem possible to save
them without serious risk of infesting
neighboring orchards.
That the owners of orchards, especi-
ally those who are directly interested
by• infestation or exposure, be enlist-
ed as far as ,possible by and with the
official. workers in the effort, to exter-
minate the scale.
That a brief circular et instruction
in regf.rd to the most important facts
in the life history of scale -insects, and
of the San Rise scale in particular, and
the dpprovecl •methods of treatment be
prepared at once anch sent to eieey or-
chardist; in the infested areas.
That a; plan, something like that
submitted herewith, be Cdonted, to en-
cotarage 0 -Very Owner of an orchard in;
the Province to make a -careful itspec-
tion of hisserehara next winter, With
a view to (hoover whether er not
the -re is any San, Jose scale, in it.
