THROUGH THE DARK SHADOWS
- • .
Or The Sunlight of Love
CHAPTER XII.
But that night Adrien Leroy could
not sleep, Dismissing his valet, lie
threw himself into a chair, and began
to review the events of the day which
had affected him more deeply than he
would confess to. Then the mere
sight of Lady Constance with Lord
Standen had convinced him- that any
hope of ever winning her for his wife
was at an end. For so Many years
had he himself been wooed and sought
after, without response, that he was
as ignorant of the rules of the game
of love ae any child, Love! he had
sneered at it, ;jested at its power all
his life; but now he was beginning to
stiffer ;from its pangs himself. He
. rose hastily, and throwing open the
window of his dressing -room, stepped
out on the balcony,
it was an exquisite MOE; and the
stars shone like diamonds. Yet their
very distance and detachment from
all thiegs earthly only served to deep-
en Adrian's melancholy. Before him
stretched, in seemingly endless vista,
the woods and lends of his heritage.
As far as eye could read, the earth
and all within- it and upon it belonged
to. him; and yet he sighed for the love
bad devotion of one frail girl, which,
had he but known, were already his.
•
As he walked to and fro, he . was
again assailed by a. wholesome distaste
of, his present empty, aimless eXis-
tame, and a great longing came over
him to break away from it and start
afresh. Yes! he was very tired of it
all. The men and women,. with whom
he had up- to this spent his time, were ,
becoming 'abhorrent to hint. The '
thought of the soft lips awl glances
that hod hitherto beguiled him,. and;
lulled him into a state bordering upon
stspor, now filled hint with shame.
Love, that marvellous panacea, had
driven out the false, the impure vis-
ions of his heart as eutely and as1
thoroughly as ever Hercules cleansed
the Abgette stables, •
The blood of his race stirred within!
hint; he Would have liked to have
snatched Constance, and borne her
"away en his trusty steed, as his fore -1
fathers -would have done. But in I
stead he must stand aside, and ,ese her
martiet: to another. Nay, he himself E
would be asked to attend the tvedding,
perhaps even give hes away, to the
mau who was stirely no more worthy.,
of her than Achim' himself,
,Jasper Vermont had indeed done t
his work -well, No sooner had he
seen the light of love shining in his
f Hen d 's face, than he had set to work;
and, like the grim spider of evil he
resembled, had filled Adrien's mind
with the suggestion that Constance
loved—in fact, was secretly engaged
to, Lord Standen.
His reasons for this were twofold.
If Adrien married Constance, Ada
Legter would—whether with or with-
out cause—hold him responsible, arid
was more than capable of carrying out
her threat to unmask hint to hia
patron. Moreover, Jasper looked
upon Lady Constance with an appre-
ciative and covetous eye, and felt that
if he could eves ingratiate himself
with her sufficiently for her to Promise
Ito become his wife, the summit of his
ambition would be reached.
Adrian was easily deceived; for,
with all his faults he was not conceit.
ed. He did not guess that Constance's
very openly expressed pleasure in the
company .of Lord Standen was to -pre-
vent the discovery of her real and
passionate longing for that of her
cousin.
Henceforth, he told - himself, he
must do his best to hide the pain that
was gnawing at his heart, Hence-
forward, the pleasure of life would be
as Dead Sea fruit to hint. His hand
fell on the balustrade in his uncon-
scious despair; and at that moment,
another window farther down the long
balcony opened, and the figure of Lord
Barminster stepped out into the moon-
light.
Adrian was in no humor to meet
even his father; he was too weary in
spirit to confront the old man's satire
with his usual calmI
; so he shrank back
into the shadow Of the buttress against
which he leaned. But Lord Barmin-
ister's eyes ,wete (ipiek to perceive
him; and, striding forward, he laid his
hand on his Ben's shoulder.
"Well, Adrian," he commenced,
"what is wrong? Can't you sleep, or
are you given to spending the small
hours in star -gazing?"
drasv on my bank if you care to do so."
His son turned to him affectionately:
"No, no, sir,", he said gratefully.
"I don't suppose they are as bad as
all that. Jasper, will see to them.
The'werds were searcelyseut of his
mouth when he regretted theih. •llls
father's face darkened; his eYes grew
fierde: "
"Jasper! always Jasper," he snarl-
ed, even as Mortimer Shelton had
done. "It's a pity lie didn't break his
neck this morning, instead of his
miserable tool."
Adrien uttered a protesting excla-
mation; he would have sacrificed any-
thing sooner than have given his fath-
er this opportunity to revile his
friend.
"You must be blind, sir,"continued
Lord Barminister, now working him-
self up into a -rage; "Did riot you see
'and hear enough from that jockey
this morning to make you realise what
that Precious friend of yours had,
done? I tell you, Adrien, that Jasper
Vermont bribed that miserable man to
rope your horse. For him, you have
allowed your friends, my guests, to be
swindled out of their money."
, It was the first time in Adrien's
collection that the proud old, man had
'ever even hinted* that Barminister
Castle was .nitt entirely his son's yet,;
that the guests .were, those of his fath-
'er's choice as well as of his own.
Adrian's eyea blazed.
"Father," has aid in a voice :ow, but
as hard as steel, "I know You have
always hated' Mr. Vermont, but this
goes farther than hate. Forgive me
if I ask you, but surely you have some
proofs? Otherwise you would not
have -accused him of such villainy.
Give them to me, and I premise you to
punish him as severely as you your-
self could wish."
. "Proofs!" his father repeated stern-
ly with knitted brows. "What proofs
weuld such a clever scoundrel leave
about? This morning's work should
be sufficiently proof even to satisfy
you." .
Adrien drew himself up to his full
-height, and confronted his father with
a resolute am.
' "It is no 'use; sir," he said. "I can-
not take a drunken jockey's ramblings
as proof of such an awful thing as
that. jasper is my friend, and be-
sides, it is more to his interest to help
.me than to hate me."
Lord Barminister sighed deeply.
The experience of age had taught him
the impossibility of convincing youth
against its will.
"Well, my boy," he said, "have your
own way, but mark my words, you will
live ..to repent your folly! I have
Ino more proof, and to me, no mere is
needed. Men on their death -beds do
not lie, and I am as firmly convinced
1
,
that Jasper Vermont forced that man
to sell the rece, as though I had the
confession on paper, -Stile I will say
no more; you are young, and 'Youth
I knows All.' Find out for yourself the
man's character, I shall not warn you
again. You are placing your faith in
a thankless cur; • don't grumble when
be terns -round and bites the hand
that has helped him. As for me, I
will wait. Believe Me, I wo'uld far
rather know myself to be wrong than
deal you any further unhappiness, so
let us drop the subject for a time. I
did not mean to bring up the man's
-name. I want to speak to you of far
more important things."
His voice grew more grave, indeed
almost solemn,
"Adrian, I am an old man, nearing
the grave, and, as is only natural, my
thoughts turn to the future of our
race. You are the last of our line,
it is to you I look to carry it on, You
are no longer a boy, with a youth's
follies .21.H tastes; it is time you took
up your responsibilities." . '
Adrien made as if to speak, but his
father checked hint, with ei gesture of
his hand.
"Stay, hear me outs" he said. "When
I was your age, your mother was at
my side'I had given the House of
Leroy its son and heir.. I was mar-
ried, and had left the lighter loves of
the world for a more lasting and re-
sponsible one, You know I have
never intereated much with your life;
but though I am no longer of the gay
world, I yet hear something of its do-
ings. You 'live the pace,' they tell
me,(and are the idol of the smart set.
Sarminster Castle, Adsion, looks for
something higher' than that in its lord
and master. I repeat, sir, at your
age I was married."
"And loved," said Adrien softly,
"Yes, indeed," exclaimed Lord Bar-
minster, his face lighting tip at
hoeghb of the woman win= lie had
ost, and' 'Mourned so long.' "Your
'tether was that which ranks above
shies, a ;ie.:id and virtuous woman,
orthy of any man's love."
Adrian turned his pale face away,
as if to avoid scrutiny, then he said
gently:
1
"I might retort in kind, sir," re-
turned Adrien, pulling his scattered w
thoughts together, and smiling faint-
ly.
"Ahl I ant old," said his father.
'Age has its penalties as well as its
privileges; and the freedom to speak t
plainly is one of the latter. Come,
my boy, what is wrong? At your
ige I was happy enough; bat you scant -
to
have taken the troables of the
world on your shoulders. Are you
111?" •
"No, sir, I am well enough,' re-
urned Adrian quietIV a
"I' admit your right to speak like
his, sir, and if it rested with me I
vould obey you at once."
"It does rest with you, Adrien,"
'shined his father quickly. "Surely
ott are blind, not to see that Con -
tenor Tremaine loves you with her
whole heart,"
Adrien started up, his face alight
nd quivering- with excitement. e
"Impossilsile, air!" he exclaimed.
"Would to heaven it were true; for I
know no other woman to whom I
would so gladly devote my life."
The grini old face softened and re-
laxed. He had not expected such an
overwhelming victory.
"Why do you say it is impossible?"
he asked,
Adrian did not answer for a mom-
ent, then he said heatedly:
"She is already engaged to Lord
Stand en,"
An exclamation of astonishment
burst from the old man's lips. He
put out his hand in involuntary sym-
pathy, and the two so strangely alike,
yet so wide apart in years, clasped
hands. Then, as if ashamed of the
momentary emotion, the old man turn-
ed away, saying quietly:
"This is, of course, a surprise tome.
Zt's truth yet remains to be proved, a
t I should feel inclined to doubt it mused
yself." With which he went back 1,
his own apartments.
Left alone once more, Achien walk -
restlessly to and fro.
"If Constance really cared for ma," t
said to himself, "nothing else in the a

FRENCH DASH IN CHARGE.
Attributed to Fact That Men Leave
' Impedimenta Behind.
French elan ih attack is, of course,
an old theme, but never has the dash
of French soldiers been more con-
spicuously illustreted than in this
war. The speed and brilliancy of the
rush with which they captured Bou-
thavesnes 'and four miles of German
trenches between Combles 'and Pe-
ronne on September 12 emphasized
this characteristic, which has been
noted admiringly by their British al-
lies and compared with the slower
methods of the latter.
An Englishman back from the front
in London suggests an interesting ex-
planation. It is that the' French in-
fantry charge without impedimenta,
leaving kit and supplies to be brought
up later. There is, of course, the risk
of being cut off and compelled to sur-
render from lack of food. There is,
however, the great advantage of rap-
idity of movement. ,
The British soldier, on the other
hand, attacks carrying his full pack of
about sixty pounds and crosses No
Man's Land at a very Steady pace in
a special formation designed to keep
casualties to a minimum, The men,
once in firm possession of the objec-
,tive are mew independent of sup-
port'.
slt seems to be entirely a matter of
method deliberately adopted in each
case and perhaps alao in each case
based upon expelience of what best
suits the temperament of the men of
the respective races.
WHAT THE SOLDIERS EAT.
Food Varies According to Their
• Nationalities.
The principal meal of the Russian
soldier consists of steltee, something
between a gruel and a aoup, the chief
ingredients of which are cabbage, po-
tatoes,,oatmeal and fat meat—prefers
ably pork. These are boiled together,
with salt and other seasoning, the re-
sult being a thick, nourishing and by
no means unpalatable dish.
The Italian soldiers, who are splen-
did marchers, live largely on a farin-
aceous diet—macaroni, spaghetti, and
so on. They are also very partial to
fruit, which is issued, together with
wine and cigars, as part of their ra-
tions whenever possible.
No German soldier considers his
daily menu complete without a sau-
sage of some kind or other, and the
"stronger" its flavor the better. A.
nutritious pea soup is also a staple of
the army ration.
The mainstay of the French soldier
consists of his beloved "soup," as• he
calls it. If is really a thick, nourish-
ing stew, made of -meat, potatees and
various other vegetables.
The EngliSh "Tommy" is omnivor-
ous, but the things he loves above all
else are bacon and jam..
The Food of the Cod.
The cod has the reputation of being
as omnivoroes as the goat, whose ap-
petite for posters and eld tin cans is
the subject of frequent jests. The
varied nature of what the cod swal-
lows is not more remarkable than the
enormous quantity. According to a
writer in the Scotsmen, such articles
as silver brooches, clasp knives, books
and rubber balls have been found in
its stomach. One fisherman of Aber-
deen has a stone that weighs more
than a pound, taken from a cod that
had' swallowed it for the sea anem-
ones with which „it was covered. The
same fisherman has- also found speci-
mens of almost all the stalk -eyed
crustaceans that frequeet the north-
east coast of Scotland, and of every
kind of fish that a cod can master, iri;•
eluding its own young. Cod have been
known to swallow partridges, guille-
mots and hares.

Selected Recipes.
Flavoring Sauerkraut.—A delicious
flavor is imparted to sauerkraut by ad-
ding a cup 'of seedless raisins to about
two quarts of the kraut. If the boil-
er is placed in the oven to cook there
will be no odor through the house.
Rice Loaf.—Butter a bread pan and
line with rice, steamed and still warm,
about an inch thiek. Fill the center
with acrid boiled salmon moistened with
egg sauce (parsley may also be ad-
ded). Cover with rice, set in pan of
hot water, cover with buttered paper
and bake one hour. Turn on a hot
platter, pour an egg sauce around it
and' garnish with hard-boiled eggs.
COrn Muffins. --One cup flour, one-
haff Cup corruneal, three teaspoons
baking powder, one tablespoon sugar,
one-half teaspoon salt, 'one egg, one
cup milk; one tablespoon butter. Mix
and sift the drY ingredients together.
Beat the egg and add the milk to it,
then add this to the dry ingredients.
Add the melted' butter last, then beat'
well add turn into well -greased tins.
Bake in moderate ovee about thirty
minutes.
An "Unexpected Company" Dish.—
Break into small pieces sufficient mac-
arom or spaghetti to serve your guests
and boil until tender hi salt water.
When done, turn out on a deep platter
and make as many hollows or nests aa
there are persons to be served. Into
each of -these break an egg. Dot all
over with generous bits of butter, sea-
son and place in the oven until the
eggs have set, which should take only
a few minutes. ,Garnish with parsley.
A little grated cheese sprinkled over
the dith before baking adds to the
flavor.
Sage Tea.—Two ounces of garden
sage, two ounces of green tea, two
ounces of eau de cologne. Steep the
sage and the tea separately, each in
eight ounces of water, Allow the
liquids to simmer on the stove for sev-
eral hours until they are reduced to
two-thirds of the quantity. Strain
and combine the liquids, and whet\
cooled apply bo the hair. More than
one application will be required to see
cure the best results, Use a small
brash and distribute the dye evenly
over the hair.
Almond Cake.—One-cupful butter,
two cupfuls sugar, four eggs, one-half
cupful almonds, blanched by pouring
water on them until skins easily slip
off, and cut in fine shreds; one-half
teaspoonful extract bitter almonds,
one pint flour, one and one-half tea,.
spoonfuls baking powder, one glass
brandy, one.half cupful milk. Rub
butter and sugar to a smooth white
cream, add eggs one at a time, beat
Mg three or four minutes between
each. Sift flour and powder togeth-
er, add to the butter, etc., with
almonds, extract of bitter almonds,
brandy and milk; mix into a smooth
batter, and bake carefully in a rather
hot oven for twepty minutes.
Shoo -Fly Cake.—Have two' bowls
ready for the mixtures. First line
a deep poen with nice, flaky...pie
crust; then into the first bowl put two
eups of flour and one-half cup of sug-
ar, and work into this with the fingers
a good half cup of any preferred
shortening. I generally use half lard
arid half butter. Mix well and set
aside, Into the second bowl pub one-
half cup molasses and one-half cup
boiling water; mix one-half teaspoon-
ful baking soda with a little vinegar,
to dissolve it, add to the. mixture and
stir until it ceases to bubble. Pour
this into the pie crust, and then gently
drop the other mixture into it. Bake
in a moderate oven. It will taste as
good as it looks. First the crisp
under crust, then the dark cake and on
tem the nice, mellow crumbs of flour
and sugar. The directions sound long,
but they are very simple, and the
whole thing can be prepared quickly.
Sausage Suggestions.
As a wholesome addition to the win
ter diet there is much to be said in
favor of sausage. There are several
precautiona to observe, however. One
is that sausage is preserved meat, and
should not he fed to children, as they
cermet digest it properly. Sausage
casings should never be eaten. It ie
absolutely neCessOrY to Pere carefully
all the casings from all sausagea—
frankfurters, salami, bologna, etc.
The casings are simply cleaned- intes-
tines, have absolutely no food value,
and are highly, indigestible. Also it
is beat to broil or cook satisages be -
fere using. Never use them raw,.
Sausages combine excellently with
beans, nee, eggs, etc. Egg sausage
is a popular foreign breakfast, and is
made as follows:
Six eggs, two- sauseges, Sliced; elle
tablespoon of butter, four tablespoon-
fuls of milk, salt, pepper. The sau-
sages ellotild e sliced, heated and
drained of fat. Beat the eggs thee:
oa,ghly, add butter and egg; to the
eausages and the milk. Cook until
thick and smooth. While hot turn '
them on a platter and garnish with
parsley. This is a verY substantiel
and pelatable dish for a cold morning,
Sausages are baked by placing in a
dripping tin in a single layer and
caving in a maderate oYeti for abont
one and one4talf hours. Aa soon as
they are brown on one side they can
be turned over. When brown on both
sides drain and serve hot,
A quick way of preparing sau-
sages is to dip them in beaten egg
and bread crumbs, place in frying has-
ket and cook in boiling fat far ten min -
Mos. Serve on hot toast points.
