"Yes, I know," said Leonora„ "Poor Delia always called me his little girl, and if he had lived. until I was sit old woman it would have been the same.

"Welcome to England, my dear child," Site said. "I shall love you dearly, I am sure. Sit down, de, in this chair. while I take your. things?'

Then she glanced around and saw that Captain Lancaster had gone. Are you disappointed because I tem not a little girl, Aunt West?" she inquired, as she removed her hat and smoothed her rough trecees .with her email, white hands. I I don't .know yet," said the good wo- man; "I am so teetered by the surprise, and -and -I wonder what Lady Lancaster will say?" • "Wlta,t hus.Lad3 Lauoaeter to do with ane?" demanded plias West. in her pretty, abrupt way, axing her targe eyes wonder- ingly on her auuft's face. Oh. nothing!" answered Mrs. West, ra- ther vaguely. "I should think not, indeed," said Leo- nora, en a very decided tone. "Are you tired, my dear? Should you none to go to your one and rest?" in- quired'the housekeeper, changing the sub- ject. -No, I am not, tired, thank you, aunt; but I will go to my room, if you please," Leonora answered. There was a little dis- appointment in her tone. The young face Ioohed sober. This way, then, my dear," said Mr;. West. She led the girl through her own neat bedroom, into a prettier one, small, but furnished with a white bed, a blue carpet, and some blue chairs -these lat- ter ilea the spoils of the garret, but, look- ing very well after the furbishing Mrs. West had given them. Leonora cue t a rapid, comprehensive glance around her, then went over to the about her husband? Shes a ewer and bathed her face and hands. The old. Lord Lauoaster has been dead thesee two years. Of course I meant the young heir." "The old lady's on?" asked Leonora, ir- reverently. Her nephew, my dear. You know I told you just now that she never had a: - child.' Oh, yes, I was pardon. So then less o forget thee that. Ibeg y her nephew who has been abroad?" "Pee, or rather her husband's nephew," replied Mrs. West. "Where has he been, aunt?" continued the girl, carelessly. Mrs. West looked as if she thought Leo- nora had parted with her senses, if ever she had possessed any. "Why, he has been to America, of course. Didn't he:fetch you to England, Leonora? `And hasn't -he• but Birt gone out of the room? Are you making fan of your old aunty. dear?" Leonora stood still, looking -at her rale tive with a pale, startled face. "Why, that was captain Lancaster;" She said, faintly, after a minute. '0f course," answered Mrs. West. "He's an officer in the army, but he is Lord Lanoaster, of Lancaster Park, too. Dear me, dear me, didn't you really know that much, Leonora?" "N -no; I didn't. I thought he was noth- ing but a soldier. He -he told me that he was as poor as -as a church -mouse!" fal- tered Leonora, as red as a rose, anti with a lump. in her throat. She was„just on the point of breaking down and crying with vexation. flow had he dared chaff her so? Well, so be is poor -not as a church - mouse, of course, for he has Lancaster Park and five thousend acres of wood- land; but then he has no money -it was all squandered by the dead -and -gone lords of Lancaster. So Captaiu Clive Lancas- ter never left the army -when he came into the title. He could not support it pro- perly, and so my lady lives on here, and some day, if he marries to please 'tier, she will give him all her money," said etre. Weet, volubly. Leonora went over to the window, and stood looking out et the fair, peaceful, English landscape in silence. Her readi- ness eadiness of speech seemed to have deserted her. The pretty face was pale with sur- prise dear. You see,. nay lady is an old woman. She is eighty years old, and she has never had any children. So of course (she vvoulai not like to be bothered with other Deo- ple's. She its very all -natured, and very pet either, but perhaps when she finds out you a.re a young lady she will not. care !t you go out into the grounds some. " "And to Otho house, Aunt Weal am X not to go over that? Papa line told me so muoh about these grand old English homes. I should like to go over one so much," said the girl, "I will take you over the house myself, some day. You shrill see it, never fear, child, but not for some time yet. You see the place is full of grand company now." "Lady Laneaeter's company?" asked Leonora. Why yes. at course," said Mrs. West; "She has twenty guestct--sae. fashionable people from Louden, and they are all very gay indeed. You shall sec them all at dinner this everting. I will find you n, peerehole. It will be a fine eight for you. ' I dare say,' said Leonora, speaking ra- ther indistinetly, becati_e she hail two oPinher e in and a ettinei collar around hernek "How coolly she takes things! I sup- pose that is the American way," thought ldrs, Weet. "But then of course shecan have no idea what e, brave sight it is to see the English nobility dining ata great country house. She will be quite -dazzled by the black coats and shining jewels and beautiful dresses. I don't elegem° they have anything like it in her country" mused the good woman, whose ideas of America were so vague that she did not suppose it had advanced very fax from the condition in which Columbus discover- ed it. "I should not think," eaid her niece, breaking in upon these silent cogitations, "that Lady Lancaster, being so old -'one foot in the grave and the other on the brink,' as they say -would care about all that gay company around her. . Docs she lead such a life always?" "Oh, no. It is only now and, then she is so dissipated. But she lama keep up the dignity of the Hall, yon know, for the sake of Lord Lancaster. Al11 thispre- sent gayety is in honor of his return. "Has Lord Lancaster been .abroad then?" Leonora asked, earelessl9• Why, my love, what a strange ques- tion!" said her aunt, staring. "What is there strange about it, Aunt West?' asked the girl. "Why. that you should ask me if Lord Lancaster has been abroad-ae if any one should know better than yourself." "I, Aunt West? Why, what should I know of Lady Lancaster's husband?" ex claimed Leonora, wondering if her aunt's brain were not just a little turned. "Wile. my dear girl, who seed anything -'I hope your room suits you, Leonora. said Mss. West' lingering, and half abaele ed. Something about the fair. self-posses- sed girl seemed to vaguely suggest bettter thiugs. Beside her grace and beauty the room looked poor anal mean. "Oh, ye , thank you, aunt," Leonora re- turned, quietly. She had taken her combs and brushes out of her dressing•'bag now, and airs. Wert saw that they were an ex- peessive set, pearl and silver+backed, as elegant aa Lady Lancaster's own. "My dear, could your papa afford hand- some things like these?" she said. Leonora flnshed rose red. "Not always," she said. "But he was very extravagant whenever he had money Re made a great pet 'of me, and some- times -when he had good luck he bought the loveliest things for me. Perhaps,.. if he had taken more care of his money, you n,err.irot•have'been'burdened with the - tent `of his orphan daughter =low." There was a dejected tone in her voice that . went straight to the housekeeper's womenly heart. "Oh, you poor Patherleee child!" i she cried. "Do you think I could mind divid- ing ing my eavings with Dick West's child? Be was a. bonny lad, was Dick! I always Sovea him, although he was no real kin to me, and only my husband's.brother." Leonora it eyes shone very brightt now through the tears that filled them. "Oh, Aunt West, you will love me too a cried, andn-for poor Mrs. w st answered, weith sud- den warmth and tenderness: "Indeed I will, dear. You shall be like my own daughter to me." A moment later she added, ruefully: "I'm sorry I could not have a nicer room for you, Leonora. But, you see, I thought this would do very well for a child." "Oh, indeed., it does not matter in the 1ott t. I (shall not stay in it much, I shall be out-of'doers nearly and the time. Hot Baths by Cllr for Wounded. and Unwounded British Soldiers.

In early spring while the insects are able to crawl they are very sluggish in their movements. This habit makes them very vulnerable to trea'bm.ent and the grower should take full advantaige of it by so spraying that none of bb.e insects be allowed to escape. It is essen- tial to 'wet thoroughly all portions of the trees and especial care should be taken to force the liquid under the loose bark and into all the .cracks and crevices in the bark.
