" We cma't do that, Fred." said. he. "It would be au affront to your sister-" "Well, then, and else aliews -my friend - her guest -to be intuited I" he exclaimed. "And all because no one dere speak out! But I've had enough of it. This last is too mach -this shows you what the neighbor. hood, is ; and it is all to be winked at ! As I say, I've had enough. rm off.. You can stay if you choese -" • You knew I can't stay here if you go," said Meredyth, in the same grave way:; in- deed, he did riot at all like this position in which he found himself. And then he said, "Come, Fred, don't make too much of a trifie-" "Do you call that a trifle?" the other demanded. "It is an indication of the spirit of the whole place; and more than that, it shows you the mieerable; ueder- haod enmity of this very fellow who has been pretending to make hien& with my sister. It is not on my acesount-it is on your account -that I am indignant. I ask- ed you to come here. This is pretty treat- ment, is it not ?-and. a pieasant intiination of what we May expect alL the way throngh if we stay on-" "Of cour.e we must stay on," said Mere- dyth. "1 would not for anything have your sister vexed. I would not . even tell her of what has just happened. Why should you ? Neither you nor I care so much for tbe fishing-" "That is inot the point, Frank," said young Stanley. "Reel up -and we will go back to the house. I want Mamie to un- derstand what all her pampering Of this place has resulted in -miserable underhand smite and enmity. And if we do stop on, do you think I'd be frightened away from the tishiog ? Not if I had to get water bailiffs up from Inverness and give them each a double-barrelled breech loader and a hiding -place in the woods. Pitching stoma into salmon pools and then running away is a very pretty amusement, but that skulking and poaching thief would sing another tune if he were brought down by a charge of .No. 6 shot !" And he was in the same indignant mood when they got back to Lecbgarra House. He went straight to his sister. He told her the story -and in silence, awaited her ans- wer. What was it to be ?-an excuse ?-an apology ?-a promise of inquiry and stricter government ? But for a second of two Mary Stunley-was thoroughly alarmed. She recalled with a stertling distinctneeg her own experience -es her wandering up the side of the river-bor coining upon the altdoeti invisible poucher in the mysterious dusk of the twiFght-the strange and vivid circhs of the blue -white fire on the dark surface of the stream when- ever he moved -then his noiseless escape in- to the opposite avcode, and she recalled, too, her ownsudden suspicions as to who that ghostly fisherman was. Since then she had seen a good deal of Domild Roam'and she had gradually ceased to couneet himin any way with that illegal haunting of the salmon ttream ; but this_ new incident - following upon her brother'e protests iand remonstrances -frightened her for one bieathless moment. Then :she etrove. to re. assure herself. The young man Who had eat by her side at dinner ea few evenings ago -proud, reserved and. self postessed and , yet timidly respectful towards herself and grateful for the attention she paid hire -was not the kind of person to go spitefully throwing otonee into a selmon pool in order to destroy a stranger's fishing. It was ab- surd to think so ! "1 am very sorry, Mr. Meredyth," she said, "that such a thing- should have hap- pened. It is a vexatious annoyance-" " Oh, don't consider me, Mies Stenley !" said he, at once. "I assure you I don't mind en the least. I did not even wish to have it mentioned." "It is annoying, though -very," she said. " It seems a pity that any one should have such ill -will-" - "But what are you going to do ?" her brother demanded. "Sit tamely down and submit to this tyranny? And what will be the next thing ?-trampling the fleets in the spring, I suppose'eo that there won't be one single grouse left on the whole moor. Then why shouldn't they help themselves to a sheep or two, when they want mutton for dinner, or go into the Glen Orme foreeti for a stag, if they prefer venition?" , Mary rang the bell; Barbara came. " Barbara," said she, " send a message to Hector that I want to see him," "When the tall and bronze -complexioned keeper made his appearance -looking sortie - what concerned at this unusual summons - she briefly related to him what had occur- red, and her tong implied that he was re- sponsible for this petty outrage. "I was offering," said Hector, in his seri- ous and guarded way, " to go down to the ruvver with the chentlemen-" "Yes, that is true ennugh," Fred Stanley broke in. " Hector did offer to go down 'with us. But surely it is a monstrous thing that we shouldhat be able to stroll along to a pool and have a cast by ourselves without being interfered with in this way. Come, now, Hector, you !mutt know who was likely to do a thing like that ?" Hector paused for a mement, and then an- swered. , "Indeed, sir, I could not seh. ' " Who is it who thinks the fishing in the Garra belongs to him, and is deitertnined no one else shall have it? Isn't there any one about with that idea in his head ?" The question was put pointedly ; it was clear what Fred Stanley meant, but there was no definite reply. "There's some of the young lade they are fond of mischief," Hector said; am- biguously. " And there's others nowadays that will be saying everybody has the right to fish." "And perhaps that is your opinion, too," said Fred Stanley, regardiug him. " Oh, no, sir, not that at ahl," the keeper answered, [limply enough. "lint such things get into their heads, and aornetitnes they will be reading it from a newepaper, and the one talking to the other about what the Land League was saying at the meetings. The young lads they speak about new things nowadays among them- selves...," f "Ad I suppose they want to have the shooting, too ?" Fred Stanley continued ; "and if we don't ' give them the shooting they will go up the iiII in the spring and trainple the eggs ?" f " Oh, no, sir, the ehepherds are friendly with us," said Heetbr. Mary interposed, for this badgering seemed to lead to nothing. "Couldn't you get some old man to act us water -bailiff, Hector ?-some old man to whom a small weekly wage would be a con- sideration ?" "Oh, yes, mem, I , could do that," eaid the keeper. "And if there are any of those mischiev- ous lads about, whg' if he were to catch one of them, a little trip across to Dingwall might frighten the others, would'nt it 9" " Just that mem." " There is old John at the inn -he seem to do nothing -does he know anything abcut the river ?" "Oh yes, indeed, he was many a day a gillie," Hector made answer. "Very well; see what wages he -wants, and tell him when he suspects there'si any poaching going on, or any miechief of any kind, you and Hugh will give him a hand in .the watching." "Very well, mem." And so tbe tall, bushy -bearded Hector was going away, but Fred Stanley stopped. him. The young man's sombre suspicious TAKE HEART, if you're a suffering woman.

"1 could not sell, sir," Hector repeated. "You don't happen to have seen or heard atlything of him of late?'

A Scotch Joke. _ A farmer's wife, not a hundred miles from Dingwell, has a great deal of trouble with her tervanta The other day one of them came to her to say: " Madam, I fear I shall not be able to work much longer. I think I am going blind." "Why, how is that? You seem to get along pretty well with your work." " Yes, but I can no longer see any meat on my plate at dinner." The farmer's wife understood, and the next day the servants were served with very large and very thin pieces of meat. "How nice !" the girl exclaimed ; " my sight has come back. J can see better than ever." " How is that, Bella ?" " Why, at this moment," replied Bella, "1 can see the plate through the meat." - Dundee News. Fighting a Scotch Farmer. Lord D , a noted athlete, once took a journey from London on purpose to fight a Scotch farmer famed as a wrestler, whom he found workbag in an inclosure a little distsnce from hia Douse, His lordship tied his horse to a tree, and then addressed the farm,er : " Friend, 1 have heard marvellous reports of _your skill, and I have come a long way to see which of us is the better wrestler." - The Scotchinan, without answering, seized the nobleman, pitched him over his head and then went on with his work. The nobleman slowly pieked himself up. " said the farmer, " have you any thing more to say to me 9" " replied his lordship, " but per- haps you would be good enough to throw me my horse."

Thete is a great dealsaid in these days about the wearing of tight shoes, and many writers try to give the impression that all women are anxious to wear a shoe at least one size too small for them. I have for a coneiderable time doubted this assertion and in order to test my position on this ques- tion visited a number of the leading retail stores and interviewed the salesmen. My investigation confirms my opinion that the majority -a very large majority of women - cannot be induced to take a pair of shoes that are too small or do not fit well, and thie is a very important point, to fit well._ A shoe may be plenty large enough, yet if it does not fit the foot it will never be com- fortable, in fact there is far less harm to the foot and discomfort to the wearer in a well fitting tight shoe than there is in a loose but ill fitting shoe, so thmt manufacturers at the present day find it absolutely necessary to produce a good fitting shoe or in a short time lose their trade. Besides the discom- fort of a shce that is too ernall most women know that even a large foot looks better en- cased in a good fitting, comfortable shoe, than in one that cramps the foot out of pro- portion. No, it is very evident that the day of tight shoes is a thing of the past ot- oept in very few cases. As a matter of fact I believe that there are more men at the present time wearing tight, shoes, than there are women, and I believe retail shoe sales- men will bear me out in thin assertion. It is a mistaken notion that only women are vaiu. , News Noteti: -Hamilton has $3,338,600 wot th oi property exempt frem tsxation. -The 22,000 pound cheese manufactured in Canada for the World's Fair cost $3,089. -On Sunday eight, SOth ult., at Edmon- ton, Northwest Territory, the thermometer registered 40 below zero. -John C.
