She did not mean to have her privacy invaded even by this attractive lonely naw aOmer, "1 ani afraid that will not b=, poss- lei" she answered. "I shall not visit; I,'haye come here' to. be alone. "I understand. Stijl, we may meet. YOU may grow tired of your solitude. I. shall hope that Tallack will be just a' -shade too lonely for you, and that you'll descend from your mountain samagines to Ross, where 1 shall be alone and hating my loneliness. "You will have Mr. Crawford and the Miss Crawfords of "White I•louse"I said Maggie, prompted by a mischiev- us impulse. Rossford looked at her for a moment and then laughed, "1 shouldprefer loneliness, But how do you mean toavoid them?. They'll be up at : Tallack early to- morrow," "There j'ou are wro g, Lord Ross ford," replied Maggie. "The t✓raw- fords have a great respect for social dlsttnctions. They will leave me sev- erely alone. 1 ani a peasant, My uncle was a small farmer." She bowed and mentioned to the driver to go on, The car started, and Lord Rossford was left standing to the road, staring after her with a be-, wildered expression on his face, Half an hour's driving brought Mag-' gie to Tallack. The last half mile wound round the shores of a little mountain lake with reedy borders. How well she remembered it now! There was the farm house with Its hedge of red fuchsia against the low white wall that separated the garden from the potato field, the square gate- way so startingly white with limewash, the two round gray stones on top, the little -flower-harden under the parlour windows with Its pink monthly roses and bushes' of sonthernwood, Nothing bad changed. The windows shone with cleanliness, Prom one chimney the blue peat smoke went up, ;:and front the' doorway an old; woman with g plaid shawl on her shoulders looked' out expec'tantly.. Ah, this was home. indeed) The sweet air, the quiet peace, the simple beauty of this lonely fnrmhpsse—was not this what her heart had been 'wag- ering for unconsciously all; tjie'se years? "Who are,ye bringing' me, John? called a shrill voice frons the doOrway, And at the sound. Maggie, with a little reclamation of joy, leaped, from the car add ran forward eagerly. "Peggy -Jane) Peggy -Janet is it you after ail these years?" she cried 'tear- fully, roiling into the, old Woman's arms. "1 thought I should find nobody alive who knew me!" The old woman held her' from her and looked curiously at this tall stranger who had arrived•so unexpectedly. ' "Who are ye, at all?" slie" began, Then. her voice changed. "In the Hartle of goodness is it Maggie? Wee Maggie come home a:. last," "011, Peggy -Jane, 1 feel as• if'i'd•lieeu lost, for years and had just found myself again!" said Maggie, sobbing, "I carne back to see uncle Peter, but they told me in the train he was gone." 1"An' what's got yer father Thomas? asked Peggy -Jane quickly. "He died on the way out to America, and I was left. 7 suppose P was too young to think of writing home, to tell you. Besides, everything was so differ- ent after that," "But what come to you, dear, left a �v t! p,;' :.c tie For a a :.Dai tel JUHY don't you ride V IF your bicycle to school any; more; Bill?"

If you'll pitch in' at school and pass your. exams., I'11m get you one of those t. C, M. Bicycles. How does that strike you?" "Dad, I'd do almost anything for a C. C. M. You just watch me!" "That's the stuff! I've heard C. C. M. Bicycles well spoken of, and One should be a prize worth winning." "It sure is. C. C. M.'s look so snappy and rdo so easy. Pewee Boyrman has one of the,nevq models and 'it has the C. C. M. Triplex Crank Hanger. He loaned' it to me yes- terday for five minutes. Gee, it *as just like rid- ing on air!" "Why, what difference does the Triplet Hanger make?" "Well,' there's never any loose- ness or tightness . when you're pedalling. You feel that every sin- gle bit of weight you put on the pedals counts for speed: "And the C. C. M. doesn't tire a fellow out, either, Dad.

Aud•I'm`just now dying° for, a cup of tea." • Peggy -Jane led -the way, into the flag- ged kitchen,' where a turf 'fire was glow- ing on the hearth and a' griddle full of soda -bread hung from the crane over the red embers. Maggie stood and gaz- ed about her. Yes, she remembered it all—the deepest windows filled with geraniums, the white wood dresser with its blue plates and gishes, the sand - scoured table, the creepy stools,' the brown -painted staircase that went up behind the dresser. The parlour was on the other side of the passage, and there was a big bedroom through the parlor, and the dairy was at the back at the end of the passage beyond the par- lour, and upstairs there we're three rooms and a linen closet, Through that door at the other side of the fireplace there was another passage tht led down to a pantry and the rooms that were her uncle's when he was alive, "Now, then, dear, yer tea's ready," said Peggy -Jane at length, and Maggie followed her into the cool 'dim parlour. A round table by the window was spread just as it had been spread every evening fifteen yefers ago when uncle Peter came in thorn the fields and he and Maggie sat down together. "If there's anything ye want give a shout and P11 hear ye. I be to get them linen a cup of tea before they start back," said Peggy -Jane, and she'hurried off. Maggie lingered over her first meal in her old home. Gazing through the window at the orchard of red apple - trees she remembered how proud her uncle had been of those trees, and won- dered if the big gooseberry -bushes were still growing in the little sheltered gar- den at the other end of the house. Her thoughts were diverted to the room in which she sat—the black horsehair chairs and the stiff sofa with its spotless antimaea,ssar, the wide fireplace filled with; ferns, Thi• s would be her sitting -room now. What, a charming place she could snake of it, She would keep to whitewashed walls and bare scrubbed, floor, but the horse -hair furniture must go, and the white lace curtains and Most 'of those litefu'res.

She must not. introduce chan gen that were not in With •a small farm house•. She most in fact re- member her station. Peggy -Jane soon came to tell her that the car drivers 'were ready to go. Maggie want o}it to pay then. They had'ta'rried her luggage into' the 'narrow passage and into the kitchen. The place was almost blocked by it. Mag- gie paid • the, men so lavishly that they were obliged to protest. ' "Six shillin' is the fair, au' mebby an extra coin for the driver; but a gold sovereign Is oat of alt reason!" said Juin, "I don't come home every day!" re: plied Maggie gaily.

I was so bad I could hardly walk across the iioor and could not 'do a thing. My sister-in-law induced me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and it certainly has helped me wonderfully.

SHARON, Apple Free Point Farm, Burlington, Vt. In hospitals are many women who are there for surgical operations, and there is nothing a woman dreads more than the thought of an operation, and the long weary months of recovery and restoration to strength if it is successful. It ie very true that female troubles may through neglect reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but most or the commoner ailments of women are not the surgical ones ; they are not caused by serious displace- ' ments, tumors or growths, although the symptoms may appear the same.' When disturbing ailments first appear take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to relieve the present distress and prevent more serious troubles. In fact, many letters have been received from women who have been restored to health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound after operations have been advised by attending physicians. Lydia E.
