"No; it will take day or two to work Tibby round to the idea; but I'm keen on it—for your sake. Mina; an' I'll step down to the oiace." Mina let him go -how could she atop Wm. without telling him everything? Sho returned to her practising: waiting through the notes for the atop which was to bong her happineee. Tibby came home to the midday meal; but Elieha said no- thing of his extravagant plane, and wink- ed cautiously to' Mina: Tibby was always in a hurry to get back to her .work, and: never in the beat of humors at dinner. time. "We'll tackle her after supper. Mina," said Elieha, with all the eetutenese of the diplomat, when Tibby had departed in the usual whirlwind. Mina was left alone in the afternoon; and she got out her books, and tried to ooncenerate her attention on them; but she was still waiting, listening. As the daylight .began to wane and dusk came, her heart began to sink. He had not come. She tried toreassure herself by in- venting all aorta of reasons, excuses. for his non-appearance: he was a great man, a member of Parliament; he had not been able to get away, had been detained by business. Beeidee, why should she die - quiet herself, seeing that he was sure to come in the evening? She waited and lis- tened to the clock etriking the hours; how fast they came now! Hope woe beginnin to die in her bosom. She listened all through supper -time, when she made a pretence of eating, but every morsel she put. in her mouth threatened to choke her, Not yet did she begin to doubt him; but her heart was heavy; it mail ed with long- ing. She was scarcely conscious of the presence of the other two, and she found herself absently listening to Elieha ae he etambled and faltered over the nropoeed outing, "Oh!" exclaimed Tibby, with fierce irony, "You only want to go to Margit or Barth. end; you're sure you don't want to go .to Brighton or Scarborough or one of them places in France where the other swelle fatherly Act if we nonsense a change! And ifwe did, what's the matter with the Zoo- logical Gardens or 'Ampetead 'Bath? Mar- git, indeed! An' jest beoos your swell friende 'ave given you a five-poun' note or two!

I don't want no change—'ceptin' out of a eovereiga—and. if Mina does, why take her down to Grtnnidgo for a blow ou a penny steamer. I'm sure she'd agree with me that it would do her more good than mak- ing hereelf 111 with shrimps at Margit or trapeeing on a pier at Sarthend—won't yer, Mina?" Yee, oh, .yea," said Mina absently. Elieha saidno more; but he winked at Min ,a. still hopefully. Mina remained up for some time after the others had gone to gybed; but though she had urged her ieseons as an excuse, she could not see the printed page, for her eyes were dim with unshed tears. She went to bedat last, and lay beside Tabby, very still, almost motionless, choking back the eobe that threatened to .burst from her lips, driving back the team; which Na-Drn-Co Laxatives are different in that they do not gripe, purge nor Cause nausea, nor does continued use lessen their effectiveness.

She made no remark, however, but Put ou her prepoeteroue headgear, and march- ed of to work. She -wee in the midst of a tussle with some children on the stains, when a tele. graph boy camedown the Bente at the proper pace, a mile an how• and, halting at the doorway, eyed Tibby with marked disapproval, and demanded to be inform- ed if a person by the name of Mina Bur- rell resided in that house. Ere, give it 'ere," said Tibby, and she snatched the telegram from hie hand. The boy, after Inquiring anxiously where she usually bought her bats, and adroitly dodging a box on the ears, slouched off, and Tibby went up the stairs again. But hall -way she stopped, pondered for a mo- ment, then, thrusting the telegram inher pocket, wont down again and into the street. When eke bad turned the oorner she opened the telegram and read it. It ran: • "I am unavoidably prevented from com- ing to you. I will write. I am quite well, but grieving at not being able to see you. —Clive." Tibby read the telegram through, count• lug the words and estimating the cost, then, with a savage nod of the head, she thrust the telegram into her pochet, mut- tering: Of course! Suet what might have been expected of the likes of him and hie clues. He'll write, will he? Not himl An' if he does, he's got me to tackle. Her mind's set on him"—she stifled a fierce sigh—"I can see that. It's lucky for 'er that she's got a sensible woman to protect her." That day Mina angered all the agonies of the efckness that comes from hope de- ferred, which precedes actual despair. Of course, he had been prevented from com• ing, but—but why had he not written? Just one line, one little lino, to tell her why he had not come to assure her that he had not ehanged his mind, now that he was well again? In after years Mina wee never able to look back upon that day or the two that followed it without a dull aching pain. The dark shadow of a vague trouble seemed to fall not only upon her, but on the other two. Tibby appeared suddenly to have lost her capacity for scolding, and was almost as silent as Mina, at whom she every now and then glanced with a strange pity and yearning in hor old. young eyes; and on the evening of the third day she said abruptly, and without any leading up to the ewbjeet; "What did you say that trip to Margit would coat, father?" Mina happened to be out of the room, or he would have winked at her triumphant- ly, but with every sign of meekness he went into detaile with Titeby. "Well, it's a ridickloue notion," she said at last, with an air of resignation; "but 1f you've set your mind en it I O'pose we shall be forced to go; for you'll worrit and worrit until we do, I know. An' 1f we're gain', we'd better go at once," she added. P'r'ape Mina won't care -to go now," re- marked Elisha, with an affectation of doubt. Oh, yes, she will—won't you, Mina?" said Tibby, Oe Mina, white and wan, en- tered the room. "Father's got thie foolish notion of goiu' away still running In his head. Got a oravin'for ooabanhin' and catohin' periwinkles—softenin' of the brain or old age, I s'pose. What do you nay, Mina?" Mina's; face flushed, and a feverieh eager - nese shone in hor eyes. "Yee, yea! Oh, yes!" she said, her usually clear voice dry and hoarse. "Let us; go; oh, let us gol Let us go at once, Tibby, dear) I—I Mut not well. I feel as if I were choking, as if there were no air. I want to go away—far away. Tilby sprang up and caught her just in time. CHAPTER 8VJ1f. Clive reached hie rooms in the state of mind which will be easily underetood by every man who has been in love, and le fortunate enough to be loved in return. Notwithstanding hie severance from his family, and his eolitary life, he had had happy moments: the moments immediate. ly following a successful speech; during a long burst with the bounds, a strong pull upstream, a tussle with a twenty - pound minim ; 1,11e happy moments which come to a - man when he is young and strong and kis pulse be bounding with health. But he had never known such happineee as ibis, which thrilled him through and through, and set hie being dancing to the mesio of joy. He knew the gravity of the step he was about to take, knew that the world, not only the world of Tile own class, but the larger ono, which was also interested in hie mevemenes, would declare that he was acting re tool's part, }vac ruining his car- eer by "marrying beneath him"; that everybody would laugh and sneer at what they would deem his folly, his infatuation for a girl who was ;to very far below him in social position. The everKbusy and ubiquitous reporter would rake up Mina's antecedents, and dilate upon her lowly, not to say vulgar, eurroundinge. In kis mind's eye he already saw the"spicy" paragraphs which would inevitably ap• pear in the daily and weekly ramie; he knew that his father and hie two brothers would be furious with him, and that he would be still .more of an outcast than he was at present, But all this c0110181 for nothing with Olive, compared with the fact of his Brent love for Mina and her love for him He CF N/IDL,AH KNIGHT DxsTmaigsrazt•EIEVICE OEDER, CCM, FRRANGE. 4 VS fit*tars , DAI4.1iCYGt,� o DUST CA$irM 41aft CAtNAOn RuSx uld d of her beoraautytion, only not , nate refinement, he vitae to be agnOratit of . -.,tat dim would be shy and fearful very likely unhappy if the were plangod, all unprepared or the change, into the sooioty to w,Moh he belonged, and in which he meet continue to move un - lees he abandoned hie career.

"First rate," he replied, "You look it," said Quilton. "You ap. pear to take a lot of killing, But I imag- ine you were very carefully nursed by those humble friends of yours." "I was indeed," said Clive with devout gratitude.- Yee." Quilton paused a moment, hie 1 colorless eyes fixed on a picture above Chive's shoulder. "One of the young ladies is rather eccentric, iou't she? But the other atones for her—sietet'e little pccu. Borates. A very beautiful girl: don't often see that peculiarly refined tette amonget her aloes." Olive colored and his oyes dropped, but Quilton did not appear eo notice it or the tone in which Clive acid: "She is as good as she is beautiful, Look here,. Quilton"—ho hesitated at ma• meat. "No; I won't tell you just yet" "There Isn't any need," said Quilton im- paeeively. "I am aware that when you have made up your mind that I am worthy of your confidence you wi.l tell mo that you are In love with her. Oh, my dear fellow, don't look so surprised—Fire me credit for the ordinary intelligence of a boiled owl. Besides, the young lady gave herself away tho day I went, to see you. I mentioned that you were excited and might need her, and she fluty past me with an expression on her face which might have been read by a blind man." Clive drew a long breath, nodded, and smiled. You've guessed it at once, Quilton," he said. "I am in love with her; and, please God, we are going to be married." Quite so!' said Quilton, as if he were assenting to a statement respecting the weather. Why not? She le not eonot.y of the class of Vero de Vere to wheh you belong; but that will not matter to 1011, who are so prominent a Democrat, who go in for the 'equality of man,' and have justly Darned the title of the Friend of the People.

I would marry the girl Plow: if her father were doing time' and her sis- ter danced in the ballet. Love levels all distinctions, you know." Quite. so. Good old copyabook wheeze. By the way," he said, as if suddenly re- collecting, "they aren't her father and sis- ter, are they? You said as much the other day, if I remember?" He putthe question in the meet casual and indiffer- ent way. That's so," replied Clive ae indiffer- ently. You don't know who she is—have 110 idea?" naked Quilton as indifferently as before. Not the slightest," replied Clive. Quilton nodded. "You are content to take her ae she ie—do not care anything about the myeteryl' She may be a princess, like the girls in the storybooks, Sou know." Clive laughed. She has a higher title than that, my dear fellow," he said with absolutely boyish ardor, "She is a queen, queen of my heart." Beautiful!" murmured Quilton. "You've got love's young dream as badly es they make it. And .this lack of curiosity on your part will continue, you think; You will not want to hunt up her origin, em• Ploy lve detectives, again 1 certainly shall not," he said. "It will be enough for mo that I have got the girl I love, that she is my wife—but why do you nth?" "Alt, why?" echoed Quilton. "I'm sure I don't know; just the journalist's inter- est In a little love romance." I see," said Olive. Is there any nowe?" he asked as he turned to hie lettere again. Yee," said Quilton; the Earl of Raf- borough has been taken 111, but no doubt those telegrams will tell you." Ho nodded to two or three telegrams in the pile; and Clive tore them open and sprang to hie feet. "My father fa very ill!" he said. "Why didn't you tell me at first?" "I was trying to break it to you," said Quilton; "abut I saw that you would come upon the telegram before I could do so. He was taken ill at hie place in- the country, Rafborough: you will want togo at once. Is there anything I can do fur you? Soo here, I'll help you pack while You look up a train.

He must be very ill—must want me badly. There are four telegrams. There be just time to catch a train.

Should a man look upon his bread earning as an unwelcome -task, to be hurried and done with confusion and at the risk of hie health, with the hope of reaching an early per- iod of retirement when he may do what he will' and really "enjoy lifer But suppose a man can hope to retire at an early period and live thereafter without gaining work, is he justified in regarding whatever rewpeotable occupation he has as a bore or se. merely a method of earning enough money to retire on? And, if he so regards it, is he likely to enjoy his retirement? He will make a very doubtful experi- ment. Whatever a man does dur- ing his active period ho ought to do with such orderliness and 'thor- oughness as to get from his daily and monthly and yearly labor the pleasure that comes from doing his task well and the additional plea - Sure of so doing it that he performs a real service. To do anything wholly for the money it brings is not to do it well enough. And those mon who contract the habit of working wholly for the money are likely thereby to unfit them- selves for the enjoyment of a period of retirement; far the right-minded man makes agreeable companion- ships in his daily work, he finds problems that call for all his brain and character—for endurance, for fair judgment, for just dealing, for doing as he would be done by; and all these are the very warp and woof of successful living.

Wick and carrier in one—makes rewicking easy and On the Farm ma ,a' 'anwss.e.esose-ao' Stopping Leaks in the Dairy. There is no denying the fact that, too lnany dairymen are parrying on their business et a loss and occa- sional instances of a marked .8 teaeol in the business appear to indicate that dairying can be put on a pay- ing basis, writes an experienced dairyman. There are many things that com- mend dairying to the farmer, among which may be named a cer- tainly of obtaining good prices fox the products of the farm, and the elimination of the speculative ale= ment which surrounds growing and marketing other preclude. To conduct a dairy farm at a pro. fit we must feed good cows. They should be good individuals and se- lected from the breed which is best adapted to the particular branch of dairying that is being made olio specialty and to the conditions of our farms. No one breed or type is adapted to all conditions, else there would be little need of so much diversity of size, conformation and quality of product. For the economical pro- duction of butter or creamor of very rich milk that is suitable for a fancy trade), it is best to keep Jerseys or Guernseys, that in pro- viding, of course, that we will give them care and treatment they arc accustomed to in their native Iand, Jersey and Guernsey cows pro- duce less milk solids other than fat thus enabling them to turn target proportions of their food and en• ergy into the production of the de. sired precinct, than cows of breed; which yield a larger quantity of milk deficient in butter fat. On certain farms whore the pas- ture is scant or where the land is rough and rolling, and where sum- mer dairying is practiced' the cow that is capable of doing the best work under such conditions would be the .best adapted to the economy of the dairy, For such a farm the man would best select the Ayrshire, or high grades of that breed. They have been bred and developed under similar environment until they have become accustomed to that, kind of treatment more than the refined and more delicately organized breeds of dairy cattle. On the other hand, the man who has rich and luxuriant pasture and keeps his herd up to very near their full capacity M all times obthe year, and who is producing milk for the general market, faces a different proposition and will find that the Holstein breed, or high grades of that breed, the best adapted to his dairy needs. Is is useless for me to continue to present evidence in favor of keeping better cows. But one thing worthy of note is the fact that the man who has built uta a profit- able herd is at all times alert to secure IP:Etter cows to increase his income. On the other hand the man with the unprofitable herd has but little ambition to inform himself in re- gard to his business or improve the quality of his cows. He doesn't be- lieve in dairy literature or that other cows might do better on his farm than his own. This class of man is doing more to discourage the dairy business than any other. One of the most severe oases con- nected with the dairy business is the foss that comes from discarding unprofitable cows. The Man who clean. Finished with blue enamel or plain steel depends upon buying cows to take drums. Stock at all chief points. .
