"It will give them a less love opirrun than if they had found it out for them- selves, as they were bound to.

And besides," added Albert, ,as he dipped his oars more vigorously, "you mustn't forget 'that Lady Atterton herself is risen 'from the , ranks—or very nearly so. If'she doesn't think lowly of .herself, she won't think lowly of us." There was a silence, during which Fenella turned back in spirit to the luxuriously furnished room, the daint- ily set -out tea -table, lately left, and hovered delightedly round the fescin ating vision. "Where did you get that cap, Fen- ella ? enella? Fenella, awaking from her vision, became aware of her .brother's eyes fixed upon .her with a radiantly ap- proving proving gaze. "This cap? From Oban." "It suits you splendidly:, down to the ground. But don't you think it's, time for a new frock?" "Julia told me she can't afford one, just now." "She'll afford one fast enough when I've—given her my views. You shall have that new frock, Fenella. You've earned it this afternoon." "By eating so many 'cakes?" laugh- ed Fenella: "No; by looking your bestrvhile you ate them.'

If he had decided 'for engineering, it was because in this machine -made age it seemed to offer the most possibili- ties.' The Glasgow University 'which, to the father, had been a prison -house, was to the 'son a palace of delights— but of purely intellectual delights, since he was far too prudent, as well as far too. determined; to waste pre- cious hours upon the orthodox,folhes.. Time enough for that later on -when he had `"arrived," There he ' had drunk with rapture the- creeds of the age, which threw open the world to energy and intellect, and; put up bar- riers only to the stupid and lady. From thence he emerged a socialist in theory, contemptuously intolerant of the tyranny of class distinctions, and yet calmly prepared in practice to profit by them, should they happen to serve his: purpose. -They were ridiculous, of course; but so.. were many things in the world.

I'd be half inclined to offer him the situation of a piper, but I suppose he doesn't pipe, since he toldme he's an engineer. Yes; they're quite amusing, and the girl is quite pretty." "Pretty?" repeated Ronald, tearing open his eyes in a manner that was positively disconcerting. "Surely she's —she's—" he stopped short under- his cousin's surprised gaze rather red in the face. "I see,' Mabel was sa �in ^ in the mild accnts of genuine amusement• "I suppose it's here that the adjective `adorable' would have better come in. Cheer up, Ronnie," and she lightly touched his sleeve with her fan: "you'll have your opportunities,. since I mean to cultivate the aborigines. I'm not narrow in my views, you know; only mind you don't turn the native head too completely!" Whereupon the confidences were cut short in precisely the same fashion as those of yesterday. CHAPTER VIII. The loch -end had this much resem- hlance to the world's end•that it seem- ed difficult'to get beyond it. The steeply rising hill, up to whose rocky feet the water crept, stood here like a rampart, its forbidding solitude broken, until a few months back, by nothing but the gulls, or the big grey herons, flaping lazily between the oak -trees which, from the borders of - precipices, bent as though to catch their own reflections in the . shifting mirror below. At low tide the; base of the rampart revealed itself aetwist- ed into heavy columns, draped with tons of gleaming, yellow-brown sea- weed- -a whole submarine colonnade,' into and out of whose entrances the water sucked tirelessly,` with hollow, sounds which set one dreaming of end"- less nd= less eaves, and dreamingly—and may- be shudderingly—wonder what pos- sible secrets they held. But upon the virginal beauty of they wilderness human hands had been violently laid—the spell of solitude broken, the rampart stormed. Al -1 ready the roughly -cut road, tanning, like a shelf round the base of the; mountain, spoke of future communica-J tions,. undreamt of by a former genera -1 tion. Within a primitive hut, close to -the] new track, Albert M'Donneli was oc-i copied m stuffing' a couple of shirts; a tooth -brush and a ,few ether neces- saries of • life into a bag. It „night have been ,the prospect of the week- end holide that was causing him to smile to himself as he packed, but more likely it was somethiag else. His working quarters were comfortie'ss, and the usual reeourres.of the loch - end consist :d of tl'ro;pr esence b.frough worl•:nian,, and '�rlie;periodical insp•ect- i mg, visit of some higher engineering i ti nr ity; but none of these things nett .,eco to Albert, 50 long as they :,,,i reed his end. • • paration of `the various grains for the market , are also'' oine - of the `deter- mining features. Cereals ma' be eoarsel-round an Y y d contain a large amount- of the otfter coat of the grain, or they may be fine- ly milled, with the outer covering re' moved. Corn, wheat and oats contain large proportions of fats; rice, contains very little. Oats is the richest cereal in protein and fats; 'wheat r les, sec- ond to oats and corn -comes` next. Cooking. Long, slow,continuous cooking is necessary to thoroughly soften ,and render the cellulose easy to digest. The starch, which is'°"present in the grain, is enclosed in a cell-like struc- ture,'therefore long cooking. is neces- sary to soften this cellulose, so that the digestive;. juices niay act upon the cooked starch, Following is a table of -proportions to be used in prepar- ing breakfast cereals: Cereal water Salt Time' cupful cupful teaspfl- Cream of wheat } 1 a 50 min.

Capt.Georgey Gu neriler, the fawiiou s French aviator, who- isy , supposed ,to ,..have lost his life inea ,contest with the enemy on September 17th, is .credited in aviation records. with having shot down fifty-three German airplanes -in- side tha German lines and with having destroyed at least twenty-five more that were une9unted. He was one -of -the youngest men of his „rank in the French ai"my, having been promoted by President Poinca ze in February last at the age of twenty-two. At the- beginning -of the war Guynemer was under age. -le tried five times unsuccessfully to get into the army and finally had ..to literally break jis way into the Aviation Corps'.. The in• - fantry refused him because he. was under weight for his height and; the Flying Corps; rejected himbecause the, examining surgeon considered that he was too nervous. Finally, ,through. the influence of a friend of his family who was in charge of an aviation school he was allowed to learn to fly. He astonished his instructors by his rapid progress and.cooiness and won a flying license, after which the Avia- tion Carp's accepted him. An "Ace" Last Year. Guynemer became an "ace" in the French Aviation Corps in August, 191G,' and soon thereafter surpassed the record of Sub -Lieutenant Jean Navarre, who tip to that -time led with placing the cookies on -it to bake, twelve German machines to ,his cre- dit.- In the meantime •Guynemer had • a brine of water and salt that'will; float an egg, bring to boiling point and add one 'ounce of'mustard seed, three ounces of -horseradish root,' cut in Small < pieces, two ounces of ginger, cut, in pieces, one-half ounce of black received two bullets in the arm at -Ver- dun.

ORIGIN OP HALOS Painters Used Them, Long Before the Birth of Christ. Saints, in pictures, are usually rep-, resented with halos. Angels like- wise. -. Why? Ask the r.ext man you meet, land you will findleim guessing atth"e reason. ! Most people suppose that halos were not worn until within the last 1900 'years or so. But that isn't true, Roman emperors and even consuls were pictured with halo's long before the birth of Christ. And; if histol; tells of thein truly, they were neither saints nor angels The halo was originally a pagan symbol of,power. -,'Thus it'ie net so very spi'prising id find Satan secures- ented, in 'medieval paintings,. with a halo,,, . - In that period it was customary CO' depict • living personages of great' au- thority with, square halos.
