And all this sae ambition tum- bles down before the wooden shoes of a pretty goose girl." "Now, Mr. Carmichael, wbat is your interest in Gretchenr asked the king tartly, Carmichael trembled with joy. Here was an opening for a double shot. "My intereat in her is better than yours, for 1 have not asked her to beeome a king's mistress." His royal highness bit his lip. "Uncle!" cried the king, horrified at this revelatlob. "Mr. Carmichael evidently has ap. plied his ear to some keyhole," Herr Ludwig replied, recollecting well the day when he suggested to the beauti- ful young girl how easily and quickly she could secure the riches, the pretty things and the advantages she desired,. It occurred in the tan room of the tavern the day be had the, mysterious Interview with the aged clockmaker, Yes, well did Herr Ludwig remember how he had told Gretcben that elm eould win the gowns, the carriages ana the jewels her girl's heart craved sole- ly through her beauty, "by the supreme right of her beauty alone."

You were determined to make a fotilef yourself. But rest easy. She is ignorant where thIS offer came from, aud, moreovero she spurned- it, as Mr. Carmichael's clerk will affirm. Oh, Gretchen is a fine little woman, and I would to God she was of your station!" And the mask fell from the regent's face, leav- ing it bitter and careworn. "Our pres- ence is known in Dreiberg; It has been known for three days at least. And in coming up here I had another errand. Oh, I haven't forgottea it. In the street there are at least ten soldiers under the subchief of the police. Rath- er a curious conjunction." The king. turned white. Carmichael ran to the rear window. 13e shrugged.

'I am Indebted to You twice for my life, little as it amounts to. And in neY kingdom you will always be welcome. Will you ac- cept tny hand as one man to another?" "With happiness, your majesty. .And I ask tha-yoU pardon my own hasty words." "Thank you." "He is „enly young," sighed Ludwig. The king emptied the drawer, put the contents in hie pack, tied the strings and put it udder his arm. "What are you going to do?" asked Um uncle, vaguely perturbed. "I am going down to the soldiers. I am no longer a vintner; I am a king!" And he said this in a manner truly royal. "Gottl" burst from the.prince regent. "Thte boy has marrow in his bones, after all. But the incarceration will hot be long. There are 10,000 troops on the other side of the passes." "Ten thousand? ' Well, they shall ttay there," said the king determined- ly.

And from that moment Carmichael's heart warmed toward the young man, whose sorrow was greater than his owe, for the king was giving up the woman who loved him, while Carmi- chael was only giving up the woman he loved,vslIch is a distinction. "Come, uncle," said the young king; "let us see what is going on down- stairs." ' Carmichael fo?lowed them down. "There they are, men!" cried the sulachief. "You are under arrest!"

There are three points of manage- ment in regard to the winter care of the flock which must be rigidly en- forced if the sheep raiser desires to at- tain the best results, writes George Harold in Country Gentleman. In the first place the breeding animals must be maintained lu the best condition for service and should by no means be fattened, but rather, should be given Only a healthy maintenance ra- tion. Furthermore, they should be housed in dry, sheltered quarters, well ventilated and well lighted and pro- tected against penetrating drafts, whose Injurious -effects have caused so • Much sickness and death. The third pssentlal is that the sheep shall have plenty of opportunity for their daily exercise, and In cage they try to Shirk It, either in the open air or inside their pens, they should be forced to exercise by scattering their food about Itt sueh a manner that they *will have to work to appease their hunger, The breeding ewes especially should be compelled to exeicise, for it not only promotes their own good health, but Insures plenty of vitality and vigor In their lambs. It is preferable not to supply the breeding ewes with 'Mach grain during the winter period. They should be in fine breeding condition atter their summer and fall on the rauge, and this may be easily main- tained by a succulent and at the same time nutritious ration relatively free from fattening ingredients, A gener- ous supply of alfalfa and clover hay, supplemented with corn silage and such root crops as rutabagas, with an occasional -feed of cabbages, will put the sheep in good condition for lamb - lag time. 'All such heating feeds as • The Cotswold is the oldest breed • of sheep of which there is any sat- isfactory record. It Is one of the hardiest of all breeds and 10 the next hugest sheep to the Lincoln. It Is a good mutton sheep and has a good fleece of rather coarse wool, valuable for heavy goods. The flesh Is not so fine as that of the Down breeds, but is of excellent quality. The Cotswold ram shoWn was a champion at the Iowa state fair. oilmeal, corn, .rye, barley and cotton seed meal should be avoided, for thei extensive use in the ration usually re Su1t8 in undersized lambs possessing low vitality. Just 'about a month be. fore lambing tine a little grain may be furnished to the ewes in order to induce milk flow. A mixture of one and a. half parts of oats and one part of bran is excellent for this' purpose. Of course if necessary .a .little grate. may be fed throughout' the winter II the ewes are not in the best condition but, as a rule, it is better to omit the cot100lltra tes., . Too much succulett feed is just' as bad for the 'ewes as too much grain, since it will in the majority of casea lead to the production of paunchy, flab. • by lambs.
