was full of the perfect beauty of the
place and of longing to have this tittle
garden for her own. It was just such
a spot of peace and loveliness as she
had often dreamed of—an old-world
garden, remote from the rush of mo-
dern life, where she could think her
own thoughts and go her own way un-
touched by the greed and ugliness of
the ceaseless race for wealth outside.
"I want HI". she said, looking at the
elan who owned it.

all ready in the sutnner-house."
They sat down of the rustic table;
Maggie still preoccupied by the amaz-
ing loveliness of tine scene around her.
Little waves lapped on the sand almost
at her feet, washing away the fallen
petals of the roses that dipped their
heads over the low- stone wall. Lord
Rossford insisted that she should eat.
lie was hungry as a hunter, he declared.
With a little sigh she withdrew her
thoughts from the dream they wan-
dered in and came back to the subject
of luncheon. They laughed and talk-
ed as they ate. Maggie praised his
cook, and was told that everything had
been done by Wililam. They ate
strawberries and drank delicious coffee
that Rossford made over a spirit -lamp.
Wiser the steal was ended they sat
outside on a little wooden bench, under
the shade of a tangled honeysuckle.
"My aunt comes tomorrow," he said
at length, "She is bringing a troup
of English servants, and Is goliig to
entertain her friends here for a week
or so."
"That will Make It gay for you,"
"I don't want her. I would rather

though no ranger had penetrated the
depths for many a year; the undergrow

dead or dying for want of room. It
hurt her to think that this was her
companion's property, and that the neg
leet must distress him as much as or
more than it did herself,

she asked,
"Like it? Why :1 would be work' for
all the hien for 'miles round, and no

earn their bread."
"You should marry a very wealthy
woman," said Maggie.
"Rubbishl" replied Rossfat'it almost
rudely. That would not amend matt-
ers. '1 have thought out a far better
plan than that. i will tell you about it
later. When 1 marry 1 will marry the
woman who will help me to live. I will
sacrifice a good deal for the estate, but

They were now approaching the
house, through wide fields of butter-
cups dotted with stately trees. Maggie
said truefully.
Rossford began to talk of his boy-
hood and they sat there on the sand for
an hour or more while he told her all
the adventures of his youth. .
"Now will you tell me something
about your early days?" he asked at
length.
"They were all dull," replied Maggie,
"You forgot that 1 left Ireland when 1

Castoria is a harmless substitute for Castor Oil, Paregoric,
Drops and Soothing Syrups. It is pleasant. It contains
neither Opium, Morphine nor other narcotic substance. Its
age is its guarantee. For more than thirty years it has
been in constant use for the relief of Constipation, Flatulency,
Wind Colic and Diarrhoea; allaying Feverishness arising
therefrom, and by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, aids
the assimilation of Food; giving healthy and natural sleep.
