Sir Beachcroft stated recent-
ly at the 8:via1 Welfare Association of
London, of which he is President, that
what wita needed for dealing with
the vagabond class was not
money "but eoncerted action and a bet-
ter education of public opinion on the
evils of indiscriminate alms -giving." It
wee proposed to establish registers div-
iding the vagrant class into those who
imposed on the charity of the public, and
those who needed help, and to deal dmrsi
timely with vagabonds.

ruled 2,850 33. C. The evidence was un.

Joan was very thoughtful daring the
journey.
She was gotng back to Deereomlie-
to Deeroombe, in which she had spent
so many sad, and, a few -very few -
happy days.
What would the Olivers say when
they saw her and heard the news?
Her brain grew confused and bewild-
ered as she tried to realize her altered
position.
She who had been tbe drudge e,nd
the dependent of the Olivers, she who
had .fled from their tyranny, was re-
turning as the mistroaa of the Wield,
and. the atelier of all the A.rroudield pro-
perty.
Rut she thought little of this; every
mile that lessened the distance between
her and the place -drew her thoughta to-
wards Stuart Villiers.
It seemed at out' moment an age since
elm had walked on' the cliffs with elm
and listened to his impassioned plead-
ings.
At the next it was as if dnly a week
or twe had paned and all, that had oc-
curred since their parting was the base-
less fabric of a dream.
Where was he novr, she woudered,
and should she ever see him again?
They reached the station in the early
morning, and found a clos,...d carriage
awaiting them.
So secretly had Miss Efazurkt, matared
her pianos that not a soul in the plaza
knew that the visitors for whom tne,
Wold had been ptepseed had actually
arrived; and as,. the young lady, es she
passed from the ,tilatforie to the car-
riage, wore a thick veil, the porters clid
not recognize Miss joan Ormsby.
In eilence and suppressed excieement
the three were driven up the etately ave-
nue, and the carriage. stopped et the
great door.
Old Craddock came out and, with a
Hilda look at Miss Mazurka, -received
tb.eut with fent:leg why' Ity. ,
No servants wore drawn up, but a
footman and a maid condected the Iod-
ic& to the drawing -room.
Joan lift•ed ler veil and Tooker, very
proud, with a seine of unrealny and de

"I sent for them. I'll pet go and .see

'stood surveying the group sardonically.

SINGING SANDS.
The attention of the public has recent-
ly been directed to those curious freaks
nature. "staging earwig," says The Engi-
neer,' When a small quantity of this
sand is clapped between the bands, It is
mile to give forth a sound so shrill as
actually to resemble a hoot. Put Into a
bag and viotently shaken, the sand emits
a noise etrangely like the bark of it dog.
The most notable of ,these sands are
those of the Hawaiian islands of leenseri,
8indiar sands aIso ,oeeur In the Colorado
deeerrt, where are' to he found those
curious moving sands ;that conunualle
thatel hither end thither over the vast
plain of clay. Their ruevements ere in-
duced by the winds, and when a etrong
breeze is blowing the partleles of whieh
they are ceppoeee give out an audible
bumming or hinging. tinder the raleros-
cope these sande show an ahnost perfect-
ly spheeical form, oo that they roll on
each other at the slightest impulse, a
cireumstance thealso accounts for the
rapidity with which the sands travel over
the desert. One 'Cheery advanced with
respect to the "ainging" of these sands
Is that it Is due to an exceedingly thin
film of gas that eovers the grains. Gath-
ered and removed .from the desert, the
sands lose their vocal properties.
