Claud set his lips in the long, par- ticular curve which Judy had seen pretty often since he got to man's estate, and which she understood to mean both disapproval and some deep- rooted determination. "That will never happen, Judy, I am sure. I've got my way to make, you," she said with genuine pleasure. and I'm going to make it.

It was surprising how vivid and precise with both was every memory of these few poignant weeks in Ayr before the break-up of Stair., But Carlotta appeared unconvinced. "You say that to comfort me, I know, Judy; but we both know that I am right. Why do you suppose I entered the profession? What do you suppose I nave been working anddsav- ing for in the last two years? I haven't spent one ,unnecessary penny." "I know," said Judy, with a little mischievous smile. "They were talk- ing about it one day in the. drawing - roam, not knowing I bad anything -tot John Grumlie's wife came harne at do with you. And they were holding you up on the one hand to execration for stinginess, and on the other as an example to all the profession of how to husband the profits of a stage career." But Carlotta was not in the mood for smiling. "I have never felt that the money was mine, Judy. It belongs to Stair:' I have all I. want. My father and mother are simple people, and they have had all they wanted, and I have saved enough to make it unnecessary to let Stair again, if only you will be good and do what I want. Don't you see how the way has been cleared? Claud gets the Dublin post, and wants to marry. He no longer needs you; and the tenants want to go aut. It is the finger of Providence!" Into Judy's eyes crept the longing of the exile, but she continued to shake her head. "I can't do it, Carlotta 1 I can't!

"And have you anything else defi- nite in view'?" 'I can have at any moment; but I want a long summer at Stair. I was thinking of the Clock House. But this has happened opportunely, Judy, and I want you to fall in with my plans. I want you to go back to Stair, dear woman, and to make it your home." Judy's eyes widened. "But—darling—1 can't! Where is the money to come from?" • "The money? Oh, it is here!" She pressed her hand lightly to her heart, and her eyes shone. "Your money, Carlotta !" " Judy shook 'her head'. "Why not?" asked Carlotta fever- ishly. "Just think for a moment of all that happened through me., If Alan had never met me you might all have been at Stair yet.' Once more, and this time very,, em° phatically, Judy shook her head. "We could not have afforded to live there, dear. Alan had decided that,. even before he saw you on that fate - get proof that Asan will never come back." "We'll wait for that disastrous day, Judy, and meanwhile we have very good tenants in Stair. And old Rich- ardson seems quite satisfied with the present state of affairs. We are cer- tainly not doing much to lift the mort- gage, but so long as we pay our way and have a little margin left for you, well—I don't see that so much mat- ters." "I hate and loathe this life, Claud!" cried Judy with a sudden passion. "I'm just like a fly in a web. I'm per- fectly useless—the superfluous woman for whom the next .generation is not going to have any use." Claud smiled tenderly, concluding "It was, really you she wanted to that Judy was feeling a bit hipped by see, Judy, acrd probably she will call the thought of impending changes, on you this afternoon about four and in no way realizing that there ':o'clock.

Carlotta did not immediately ans- wer, but turned her head away. and he was not aware of some news which had come to his sister from Glasgow by fhat morning's post. It was scarcely noon when Judy reached Carlotta's house, and she was waylaid by Mrs. Carlyon for a mo• - ture like Judith Rankine's, and pour their incense at other and less worthy shrinesr "Carlotta's alone.

A Poem You Should Know. John Grumlie, The story .off the misfortunes that overtook the man who had to mind the house • is an old one, and appears in many forms. Here is an excellent form of the story in verse. John Grumlie swore by the light -of the moon And the green leaves on the tree, That he 'could do more work .in a day Than his wife couledo in. three. His wife rose up in the morning With cares and troubles enow; ",john Grumlie, bide at Name, John, And I'll gae baud the plow. "First ye maun dress four children fair, And put them a' in their gear; And ye maun turn the malt, John, Or else ye'll spoil the beer. And ye maun reel the tweel, John, That I• span yesterday; And ye maun ca' in the hens, John, Else they'll a' lay away." 0, John did dress his children fair, And put them a' in their gear; But he forgot to turn the malt, And so he spoiled the beer. And he sang aloud as, he reeled the tweel -That his wife epan yesterday; But he forgot to put up the hens, ,And the bens' a' laid away. Then Carlotta quite slowly rose to. her feet, and her face looked a little white and. strained. "Then I must tell you, Judy, if you won't go back to Stair, I will. Look here!" She undid the fastening of her bodice with a swift hand that did not tremble. About her neck was a gold chain so thin and fine that hardly was it visible against her skin. She drew it up with a quick, proud ges- ture, and held out to Judy what was suspended upon it—a wedding 'ring. "1 am Alan's wife, Judy," she said simply. "We were married that morn- ing he sailed. It was nay doing. So "You are more tired than usual you see all my money belongs to and things have been going wrong at Stairand I have the right to go the. theatre --is that it?" there, if I choose now, and wait for "They're all wrong, Judy, and 'his corning back."

In many part of rural England dur- ing late August and early September, one ntay hear a church bell being rung morning and evening at times when no services are being held. This Is the "gleaning bell," which was once sounded in practically' all villages and hamlets throughout the countryside at 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., as soon as the harvest was suficientiy advanced, to tell the villagers when they night begin gleaning and when "they must cease. The custom still lingers ,even though the modern machine -rake leaves loss wheat to be gleaned than did the .old hand -rake. Indeed, the high price of bread, in comparison, with what it was before the war, has ledsto a revival of glean- ing. In accordance with the old custom, wherever the gleaning bell is rung, a penny for the whole period is paid to the bell-ringer by each family in the parish that goes • gleaning. In telegrams, any number contain- ing up to five figures is counted as one word, and each additional five figures as further. words.
