Lady Caraven decided to ollow the
advice of her friend Sir Re out, and
forgive her husband. She received
him in the pretty little boudoir in
which the few months of her girlish
life at home had been spent. it was
o pretty room, octagon shaped, with
a large bay -window that looked
across the lawn to the river—a. room
that seemed fitted for a young lady's

silk and •white lace, profusion of
flowers, and a few pretty water -col-

She was standing by the window
when he entered. Ells step was so

deep thought.
"Iiildredi" he called, and at the
sound of his voice a crimson flush
seemed to burn her neck and face.
She was quite silent for a minute,
and then she turned to him and held
out her hand.
"Can you — do you really forgive
me?" he asked. "I hardly dare to

Mr. Id, D. Edgerton. One or both
of these are absolutely necessary to
the highest success. Out clover
steamed and fed as a warm mash,
together with a ground feed of bran,
middlings, corn and eats, is unex-
celled. Bone meal of some descrip-
tion is also necessary. I bevel had
excellent euceess with a grain and
clover ration as above mentioned,
scalded with a broth made from
boiling scraps obtained at, the meat
shops.
Green feed of some deecription is
desirable, although clover will, te
quite an extent at least, take the
place of this, Mangols or beets
hung upon nails will supply this
want of the fowls, and furnish them
with quite a little exercise as well.
A few sheave's of grain stored away
at harvest time and one given them
occasionally to stretch and pick
over, is vary good. The grata ration
should be varied as much as pos-
sible, using oats, wheat, buckwheat,
millet and corn. These should be
fed either in the head or ear, or
thrown upon the litter in the
scratelling shed, as an inducement
for the bicaliee to exereise. During
tile whitey months, corn for the
whole grain ration should madonna -
