Joel moved impatiently, for he
had little exrected that the Earl
would take up this position.
"Have you thought? Have you

Joel led the way to the smoking -
room, and they found that Lord
Wolverholme had not yet gone to

The three men were alone.
Harecastle was acutely feeling his
position. His father looked so
happy and contented, and little
dreamt of what was awaiting him.

yawn,

that he did so, for the Earl required

"I will do my best, but I cannot

"Perhaps the Earl will be able
to persuade Rebekah. He has
every reason to use the persuasive
powers for which he is famed,"
Joel said threateningly.
"What does it all mean'" the
Earl asked of his son. "Is it a
joke' If so, it is in very bad
taste.,,
"It is grim earnest, Lord Wol-
verholme. You may as well under-
stand that we all know of that lit-
tle affair at St. Petersburg."
'Make up your minds," he said
sharply. "If you so desire it, I
will make the announcement to
our guests in the morning, that
the marriage is postponed."
"And you will say nothing'" Re-
bekah asked eagerly.
"I shall speak, and to the point,"
he said sharply. "Have you dle-
cided' You are a pair of simple-
tons. Run along and play and
let's have no more of this non-
sense. I am really very fond of
you both if you will only be sen-
sible."
It was more than Rebekah could
bear, and she burst forth into pas-
sionate tears. But on Joel it had
not the slightest effect.

"You need not think that tears
will hnake me alter my mind," he
began in an even, cold voice. "Per-

night's rest may enable you to

can come by prolonging this

"Yes, Your father will stiffer,

On the Farm
FARM NOTES,
Hoofs, horns, woolens, every
kind, and even old leather may be
converted into manure instead of
burning the material and filling the
whole neighborhood with their of-
fensive odor.
There aro thousands of farmers
who find the winter a most profit-
able season, and morn and more
Antecomingbe the
winter activity is to

s Y
growth of agriculture into a web -
regulated business, as exact in me-
thods and as: certain in results as
merchandizing and manufacturing.
In 2,000 quarts of milk sold—or
4,300 pounds—twenty pounds of
nitrogen, eleven pounds of potash
and nine pounds of phosphoric acid
are removed from the farm. But
the cow that produces this amount
of milk returns nearly as much
plant food to the farm in the shape
ee manure, if it is properly saved.
So that, in reality, milk farming is
by no 'means exhaustive.
It is astonishing how in some
00508, a change of locality increases
the vigor and strength of a plant,
sometimes also changing its habits.
It is a well-known fact that,
amongst our weed and insect pests,
some of those imported from other
countries, are our worst enemies,
and that these, while in their' na-
tive country, frequently caused "lit-
tle trouble. Although a change of

results.
LIVE STOCK NOTES.
Among men of judgment a breed-
er is rated more by the quality of
what he sells than by the,prices
which he receives. His animals are
a standing advertisement.
When lambs are being dropped
you should see the sheep the last
thing before going to bed and the
first thing in the morning. If you
find a sheep that you are sure will
am a ore you see her again, put
her in one of the pens,eand gener-
ally no harm will result.
Complaint is sometimes made
that the finer bred pigs are less
hardy, either against cold or ill
usage than the coarser kinds.' It
is true that this is the feet, but
ie is no objection. No farmer has
a. right to expect the combination
of incompatible qualities in the
same animal. The wildhog is un-
doubtedly most hardy, because re-

Chickens, and especially fowls,

Give them corn and cornbread
mixed with milk, also vegetables
of different kinds. After ten days,
they should be sold if intended for

a show they should be let run for
two or three days, when they can
again be cooped up, but for no
longer than about seven days. This
kind of treatment for a month,
with a variety of grain, keeping
corn for the principal food, will
make a wonderful change in the
birds. For market poultry, ten
days is sufficient, but exhibition
stock cannot be handled too much.

HEALTH
FIGHTING TUBERCULOSIS.
It has always been recognized
that in warfare a knowledge of the
enemy's weak points confers im-
mense tactical advantage. This
was never truer than in the tre-
mendous crusadethat mankind is
banding together to wage against
that dread foe, tuberculosis.
A few decades ago this particular
enemy of the human rade was not
believed to have any vulnerable
spots. It was thought by all to .be
invincible, and that its mere touch
meant death. Then it was gradu-
ally discovered that, after all, cer-
tain weapons were at hand by
means of which mankind could give
fight; that before sunlight, fresh
air and proper food this foe would
recoil like Mephistopheles before
the crucifix.
Then, little bylittle the fight
ttl g
was begun. By example and.pre-
cept people were taught not to lie
down and die, but to standup and
battle for themselves.
The good news was taken to the
tenements and crowded parts of
great cities, where sunshine Mad
fresh air aresecured without
not s o a x
a struggle, but wherethey are just
as efficacious as in the haunts of
wealth.
The great free exhibitsgiven by
the International Tuberculosis Ex-
hibition are of immense Value in
this educational crusade, and the
charity that takes the form of pay-
ing car fares in order that the poor
of the tenements may not miss this
invaluable object -lesson is a very
real one. Here the mother who is
trying to save her stricken child
in two small rooms in a tenement
district is shown those two rooms as
they probably are and as they may
be. In the first instance dirty,
cluttered up with useless rubbish,
with every crack through which air

HOT AND COLD BATHS.
Cold and hot water face baths
combined are much more effective
than either one alone, for it takes
the hot bath to cleanse the skin
and the cold one to invigorate and
stimulate it. The English are de-
voted to the cold water bath for
the whole body as well as the face,
and the ,English men as well as the
women are famous for the beauty
of their complexion. The cold bath
snakes the skin look clean, but it
does not cleanse it. The face should

water and should be rinsed in water
of the same eemperetui'e. This
should always be followed by dash-
ing cold water on the face, neck
and throat until the skin tingles
and glows. The only time when
the face should not be rinsed in
cold water is after the eveningbath,
when the pores must be left open

One evening they made believe
that the lawn was a desert, and
that Johnny was an ancient Arab
sleeping in his tent, "But where
is my fiery steed1" asked the little
boy..
"Ah, I guess you'll have to take
the great Camelopard—made of

he hasn't swung round there by

steers by. Orion, the mighty hun-
ter, will peep in on the southwest.
