We roust all bear our lot cheerfully, whatever it may be. I sympathize tvith you deeply, deeply; It must be so trying to .be an earl with ever so many thou- sands a year; but you must bear your heavy trouble like a man, you know, And here's the hansom at last." Cyril hurried to the door as if he were going to catch a train and hadn't a minute to lose. Then he stopped short and thrust Ms hand into the breast pixkat of itis beautifully -fitting truck coat, "What's the matter? Palpitation of the heart?" demanded Jack. "No," said Cyril, gravely pulling out a long blue envelope. "I was wondering whether I had forgotten this," and he tapped it significantly. "Oh, that's all right. \Vhat you'll for- get will be the ring—" "No, I cha'n't," retorted Cyril, and he took it out gingerly front his waistcoat pocket. "Come along, conte alone "Certainly, but allow me to look the door. Are you afraid the church Rill run away,( or lh(,1 Miss Norah may change her mind?" The church was atilt standing in its secluded corner, and Norah had not changed her mind, for aper Cyril had been pacing up and down the small ves- try toe ten minutes, while Jack had been chatting with the clergyman—a young curate, who really did seem to enjoy the fun of this strange marriage—Lord and Lady Ferndale arrived with the bride. Cyril—and perhaps Jack, too—drought she had never looked more lovely than she dill in her simple dress of quiet gray, her glorious eyes duwneast, her lips just parted by the quick breaths of mingled joy and shyness. For herself she still felt as If she were moving in sutue strange, delicious dream, and it was with a star! she heard the young curate murmur softly "Are we rowdy:" Then Cyril and ?ark walked up to the altar. and Lord Ferndale drew her arm wither his and feliowud, There 11rr0 no outer witnesses than thes,s door and tried friends, except the imitable pew -opener. Norah felt as 1f tine throbbing of her heart could be heard ail over the Mlle church. In bis soft, suave voice the curate per- forated the eirauliny; she felt Cyril's deer hand 0109 hers as he slipped tate "Mein ring of gold" upon her finger, then. leaning upon his argot, they led the way back to tate vestry.

"I have dispensed witlt my clerk's ser- vices this morning," he said, making a great fuss with the blotting paper. •Now--er—Mr. Burne, will yeti sign, please?" Cyril wrote his name, \Villrid Avon Cyril, Earl of Arrow - dale," and the curate covered it quickly with the ibollMg paper as he turned to Norah, "Here, if you please, my lady,' he, said, then sttunmered ens turned red. But Nornit did not notice his confusion, or, if she had done so, would have attn. buted it to his having addressed her by the title she lutd borne, and, bending down, wrote her own name. The curate folded the certificate two or three times. "Will you—or--" he snid, addressing Norah., but looking at Cyril. "Give it to me," he said, quietly, but with downcast eyes. "I have some pa- pers of importance here; I'll pin it with them. It will be sure not to be lost the," and he took the envelope from his pocket, inclosed the certificate, and fastened the envelope securely. As he chid so he drew a breath of re- lief, and glaned at Jack, who smiled sigrdlicanlly, and softly clapped his ,hands. Then they went hack lo the carriage, and wore rattled oft to Grosvenor Square, where what Lacey Ferndale called "an apology" for a wedding breakfast awaited item.

You'll be wanting to get back to work, eh?" And Cyril had, w.,e a marked increase of color, murmured something inaudible, and hurried Norah out of the room. She and Lady Ferndale disappeared to- gether for half un hour, and then they came down, Norah attired to a travelling dress and a set of sables which Lady Ferndale lead produced at the last mo- ment, Both women were rather red about the eyes, and Norah clung to her friend until rho last moment, when Cyril standing beside the cab door, held Jack's and Lord l+erndale's hands and whispered : "Eietnember!

"ICs very mysterious," said Lady Fern- dale. with perfect gravity, "But, at any rate, whether the missing young man puts in an appenrance or not, I hope the dinner will be all right, for these young people must be terribly hungry.

They need comfort• able quarters in winter, protection from the sun in summer, clean pens at all sensOns, regular feeding, a clean place to eat, food properly prepared and some space in which to root, with no rings in thole noses. Death cones to many hogs because we deprive them of that inborn desire to root, find his medicine and re- store himself to health when sick. Tho hog knows why ho roots, but we do not. Careful expeelments have shown that each bushel of corn fed hogs will produce on the average about ten pounds pork. When I nal ready to fat- ten I divide my hogs into lots of 20 or 25 each. Too many hogs together will most certainly invite, contagion, 1 keep my hogs at all seasons in good growing condition, and it never takes me over 40 clays to have my legs round and plump and ready for the highest mar- ket. There, is no trouble, in putting fat of a well -kept hog. When I am ready to fatten I hitch any horses to my feed grinder and crush and grind 50 bushels porn, cob and all, into coarse steal. I put this corn and cob meal in th dry place in barrel. I fill three or four ex- tra barrels about half full of this corn and cob meal. I pour boiling water in- to these barrels until they are about puree -fourths full, this water may in - elude litillc and other slops from the kitchen. I stir this mixture ,and let 1l stanch IWO or three days till it begins to ferment. This process will soon fill the err is to overflowing. Feeding begins, spermgly at first, till the hogs got used to it, then I give thorn till they will eat three Lines a clay. This pre• prelim 1 of soft, mtasir makes an excel. lent laxative diet, alloys the tendency to a feverish condition of the hogs' bowels, hastens digestion, gives the hog a good appetite, pr'oaotes health and puts on fat and flesh with exceeding rapidity. I let my tattooers run on grass 1111 the, snow 11115, then 1 house, them end bed with the sweet elgver hay. 1 find 111 lieessory to renew the bed every two or throe days 0s the hogs eat the bid when they cant gel, grass from the pns- iure, They ere wiry food of 510011 coo. vet' hay. .There Is nn waste n of hey, for clover is n muscie trrotluree end pro. modes the hnnllh of the hogs, The soft mush produced by scalding the corn and cob meal, I feed in long troughs 011 it floor, as t0 keepthe 1' rl lla l` feeding0 s0 C f 100(clean. This is very important, i keep a trough in one corner of the feed- ing eeding floor filled with chm'cett] and snit far the hogs to eat just when they wart cholera it,' TIP 1S a fine preventive of rn andur res the bowels of impurities. In n i, 40 days from the lino 1 begin this soci- etal fooling my hogs ,are ready to sell and I find I have used eight bushels corn for each hog, and each hog gained on an average 100 pounds 111 the 40 days. Now let us count the profit; 50 hogs gabled 5,000 pounds, at 5 cents per pound is $400; 400 bushels corn 45 cents per bushel is 5180, leavhig a net gain of $220. To these figures add 7,000 pounds, the weight before fattening, and you will have the 10101 valuation. I make six sales of this kind a year. With 15 brood sows and ono mato I cleared last year $2,270 on my hogs and don't call myself nn extensive hog rais- er. I did this last year and bought 2,400 bushels of corn to fatten the hogs. I find that, I fatten in about half tiro time and with about half the feed of my neighbors. This Is actual experience and not theory. 1 always keep on hand plenty of pigs and sltoles to servo my purpose. This necessitates the keeping of About 15 breed sows and a good vig- orolts male. Whenever I am over- stocked with pigs I easily dispose of them at wreaniug time at $1 each, I never sell en ear of corn; I feed all to the hogs and other stock.
