He colored slightly, but his eyes t

Alas, that it was so short! Well, iet

And it went quickly, too quickly. War-
ing was shown everything about the
place by Uncle Sandy himself, who gener-
ally bestowed a degree of attention and
favor on his guest such as Mona had
never seen bestowed on any other vis-
itor, Then, in the evening, Waring seem-
ed never tired of her songs, excusing his
frequent demands on the score of his
speedy departure to a land where the
ditties of a cowboy, or the crack of bis
whip, were all the music he would hear.
'Then came the inevitable hour of part-
ing.
Waring bad still some business to set-
tle in Glasgow respecting the small stun
he had inherited, and after a few days
there he had to visit London, finally em-
barking at Liverpool,
Mona could hardly steady her voice to
bid him good-bye. It. seemed too cruel
that he should be expatriated merely for
a little—not a little --imprudence; and,
say what he might, Mona could not but
perceive that had she married him, lie
would never have committed the fables
and follies which had changed his life.
Waring himself was quite calm and
cheerful. He promised Uncle Sandy to
write occasionally, He begged Kenneth
to come and pay him a visit whenever it
could be managed; and he looked, for an
instant, kindly and gravely, into Mona's
eyes, holding her hand in a painfully
tight grasp; that he mounted the phae-
ton in wbieh Kenneth was seated, and
they drove off. 's
"Noo they are awa'," said Uncle Sandy
as he hobbled toward the library, follow-
ed by leis niece, "we'll have yesterday's
paper till the new ane comes. I read
varra little."
Mona made no reply; she would have
given anything for half an Hour's private
thought, and the relief of tears, but this
need must be concealed at any cost.

"I feel awfully ashamed of myself for
giving all this trouble," said Waring, his
eyes resting on Mona's for a moment
with a deprecating glance.
She, still silent and pale from the
shock she had received, went nameless-
ly and brought the wine by the time the
little procession had reached Warin,s
room, which the housemaid had. not yet
dismantled.
She poured out a glassful, and placed
it in his left hand, which, as she saw
it trembled very much, she steadied with
her own.
"I fear you are suffering," she said
oftly.
"t)h, of course, I am in pain, but
there is nothing serious the matter; on-
ly I fear I must be a nuisance for some
tune"
'It canna' be helpit noo, my laddie,"
said Uncle Sandy, with unusual tender-
ness, "and you are right welcome to my
hoose "
"He must get to bed" cried Kenneth,
with authority. "That's the doctor's or-
ders. He must be kept ferry quiet, to
avoid fever, Mona, will you sec that

and the letters, Mona."
This done, there was nothing for it
but to wait till Kenneth was at liberty
to explain the cause of the accident.
Meantime she found a letter front
Mary, evidently written in high glee, ac-
cepting Mr. Craig's invitation, and pro-
mising
roraising to be with her friends the follow-
ing week.
Noo, tell us a aboot it, Kenneth!"
cried Uncle Sandy, when they et length
returned to the dining -room, after sea
ing Waring made comfortable.
"Well, you see, we were in plenty of
time, and when we found the ticket -clerk
was not there, we went into the yard to
look at some horses that were waiting
for a boa that was coming from G1ies-
gow--for Waring is very keen abort

squealing. There was a decent -like wo-
man and bairn standing by, and the bairn
had got in the way. There was a scream
that it would be killed, Waring made p.
dash for the child, and just threw it
to the mother; but somehow in doing so
he fell, and got a kick from the mare on
the shoulder, while the wheel went over
his arm. Ile was insensible for a few
minutes. Then we got a bench and car-
ried him to the doctor's, who, by good
luck, was at home. He was some while
setting it, for it's a bad break; but he
says it was a mercy he was so far from
the beast's hoof, or the shoulder would
have been smashed, which would be a
much more serious matter. As it is, it's
a nasty bruise. Waring seemed chiefly-

"It was verra unlucky," said Uncle
Sandy.
"And there's his dream come out,"
observed Kenneth.
"Ach t hold yer havers about dreams,
an' sic Iike fule-task!" cried Uncle San-
dy, contemptuously.
Weil, may be it is; but I heard him
mutter to himself something about `his
fate,' and he is not a superstitious Hie-
Iender."
"Doctor Donaldson did not think his
injuries dangerous?" asked Mona.
"Oh, no! Specially if be did not get
feverish. He's doming over to see him
this evening. I'll just have the big easy
chair in his room to -night, and doze a
bit in it, in case he wants anything."
"Ay, 'twill be better so! If he could
get a dude Tang sleep, it would be the
making o' him,'
It was a curious, disturbed, uneasy
day. Uncle Sandy was especially rest-
less, and time went at once quickly and
• slowly. Mona felt she could not settle
to anything, and all waited eagerly for
the doctor, who was later than they ex-
pected.
He pronounced the patient to be doing
well;. but much depended on his getting
rest; and he finally sat down cheerfully
to supper, and enjoyed a long "crack"
with Uncle Sandy afterward.
The next few days were each a repeti-
tion of the other. Mona `felt herself
very useless. All she could do was to
ilighten the labors of the cook by in-
structing the housemaid to do a good
deal in the kitchen.

was quite devoted to the sufferer when
he was indoors,ora At lengthth

"Is it nae? Ah, Mona, I eould not amuse

much an invalid increases the work
about a house; and I shall be very grate-
ful to you if you ear, do some of the

The first time that Waring left hoe
own room for the drawing -room was a
great event,
ile looked pale .and languid, and his
eyes seemed unusually large. Mona and
Mary had placed cushions and plaids on

Ball Player's. Finish,
(I3rocton Enterprise.)
The ending of a ball player's career
has in it much the same tragedy that
accompanies the loss of voice by the
singer. itt one fell swoop the player and
` Iris family drop from comparative lux-
ury, ease and ability- to have all the
ordinary pleasures of life and fall to
something like actual poverty. Often-
times poverty is encountered before the
end of the struggle is reached. The still
young 'couple, after several years of
good living, travelling, seeing the world,
enjoying all the fun in sight, suddenly
come with a splash to the icy water of
poor living, poor clothes, inability to pay
for theatre tickets and trips about, sand
inability perhaps to much more than
pay the rent of a small flat—for the
ball player who has never done anything

his money is against a hard proposition

her go in just before he reached the

small brother.
"Jimmy, I'd like to see your sister,"
the determined young mttn said.
"She, ain't at home," Jimmy said, sur-

"But I just saw her come in," the
youth protested.
"Can't help that. Toll you what I11

The Cuban Riess.
(Mail and Empire.) .
The eime was when our neighbors
worried over the Spanish oppression
of which the islanders were the victims,
and longed for an excuse to hasten to the
reseue of those unfortunates. An etpe•
dition to drive out Spain would be a new
and humanitarian crusade.
When the Maine exploded the oppor-
tunity presented itself. It stood to rot -
son that the Spaniards, knowing the
attitude of the United States towards
them, and fearing intervention, would
blow up a warship visiting their port
and thus play into the hands of the other
side! War followed. The rescue of the
Cubans began; and was sueccnsfnlly ac-
eoniplielted. There can be no doubt that
to -clay well-informed opinion in the Un-
ited States regrets that Cuba, was ever
saved from Spain. If the revolt should
not be brought to en esti; tho ted
States will be in the place whieh Spain
formerly occupied, and the eivilized world
will be shouting "Yankee barbarity."
Preposterous.

HAY HUNG OUT TO DRY.
NERVOUS DEBXLIITIC
One of Norway's Peculiar Sights During
Harvest Season.
One of the most peculiar harvest
scenes in the world is to be witnessed in
some parts of Norway. Those are dis-
tricts in which the rainfall is excessive,
a common boast of the country folk
there being: "We are sure to have one
dry day in a year."
When the hay is cut, to leave it upon
the ground to dry would, instead, mean
that it moult rot and be rendered value-
less, says Caseell's Saturday Journal,
Therefore, long fences are built in
rows reaching right across wide fields,
and to these the grass is brought in
carts. In the daytime the hay is tossed
about on the ground, but toward even-
ing it is ail carefully hung upon the
fences to dry. In very damp weather
it remains all clay en the fences. The
peasants say, "Our women and men do
the same work, only while the women
hang out clothes, the men hang out hay
to dry."
