After etipeer Jerry lied an hour be- fore he had to go on duty; he took his place in the sitting -room with the rest of the family and began to re- view his notes on Blackstone. His mother was busy with her knitting; the otlhers were studious as usual. Looking, up from his notes from time to time and trying to fix them in his memory, Jerry found Kate's altered appearance an obstacle to thought. Aftaoo She sat where the lght from th lamp fell full upon her hair, and un til this moment he had never app ciated what beautiful hair it wa : When it had been in a pigtail it ha never displayed the sheen, the varlet i of light and color that glanced an sparkled from it now. He had al ways thought of it as just brown hal and here he was discovering under th lamplight that it was red and gel ' and coppery as well, with waves an curls in it that he had never sus petted. And now that it was a rolled up above her neck he was dis covering for really the ldrst el,:n what a pretty neck she had. On th whole, he was discovering for the fir• time that she was,quite grown up. She had her head industriously ben while he watched her; she was writ ing with.pencil on a tablet held in he lap. Once she looked up as if to in yoke an idea and encountered Jerry' eyes. She blushed and smiled, a de precating smile that seerned to say "Don't think I'm any different, pleas , don't" Jerry's smile in respons must have been reassuring, for in an other moment het head was ben again and the pencil was travelin steadily back and forth across t pages. By nine o'clock Peter and Betty had been sent off to bed; Mrs. Donohue was yawning and dozing over he knitting, and it was time for Jerry t start on his patrol. On his Way to the police station Jerry met four persons marching abreast, with arms linked together The two on the flanks were young men of a tough and rakish type; the outside one gave piece to Jerry grudgingly and defiantly. Then companions were a young woman whose charaeter there could be no question, and 'another young woman whom in the moment of passing' Jerry recognized tie the older Arm- strong girl. In that moment the Lesbian salt:, with a caressing intonation,— "You're not going home yet, are you, dear??" Replying with a cackle of laughter, Clara Armstrong chanted in a vinous voice,—•.1, day, A bright new ribbon teetoftrl- ly-arranged upon her old hat, indeed transforming the old hat, ;fortified her confidence and Increased her courage.. At the end of the lesson he appear- ed in the doorway, bearing in his hand, net a pipe, but a bouquet of may- flowers, Ile presented them to Nora with a certain ponderous courtesy. "Oh"' said Nora. "Thank you, Arent they lovely!" She fe •tened them do her belt; belt; meanwhile, Maguire obeerved,— "S ru g They look epl'cor Y• Nice day, .don't you thick, for an auto mobile ride ?" "A l erfeotly wonder ul day for it." Nora agreed, hardly d iriug to think thio wait an invitation. "I've got n • new car; We to be. brought round in a few minut-. , You! might come out and try it with me." "Oh, I'd love to," -aid Nora. "Can I cone too, Uncle Pat?" ask- ed Laura, "Not to -day; your mother wants you upstairs,— Isere.-- wait," •— as Laura's expression became marc ominous --"look hero what I'm going to give you," He put his head in his pocket and drew forth some coins. "You can have 'ear if you don't matte a fuss,' And 1'1l take you out riding later to -day, maybe, if you're a good girl," Somewhat appeased by the twofold bride, Laura consented to go upstairs. The car was large and luxurious, Nora in all her life had never ridden in atrething so magnificent; she said so, and Maguire seemed pleased by the tribute. Neither had she ever been wrapped in such a costly fur u coat as that which Maguire borrowed from his sister for her consort, re_ When they had gone about fifteen miles from the city, they 'came to a park of woodland with an arched en- trance that bore the name "Silver Grove." "I always give a couple of picnics here every summer," said Maguire, 1 e."Want to come in and look round?" d• He ran the. car into the park and; d left it near the entrance. He and Nora walked along a woodsy path ti that led past a pavilion for dancing. "Great place for the young folks," - said Maguire, "Every picnic I egive I feel I'm helping along some young eouple. Gives 'em a chance firs time get acquainted. Many's the pair that's come here, you might say single, and gone away engaged." "It's a funny thing you've never r done it yourself, Mr. Maguire." -I "Well, I never seemed to meet up with any one that quite fell in with my ideas. I've always had tastes in advance, you might say, of them I was e likely to see.—This field here is where e they play baseball. Pretty soon now -.we'll see the river." rt.. "This is where the boys like to take bei "Theyhe girls get such asit," fine view. �fItgkind of makes them feel romantic, I guess." "It is a fine view," said Nora sed - r ately, yet full of wonderment, o; "We might sit down a few nhements on this bench," suggested Maguire. He Ied her to a bench between two pine trees. "I'm mighty sorry;" he said after NURSING: bo¢ne.rOB000klet tient arae ROYAL without 0 scif•NC1: 709 Ng S)e2,1e.Are., Swede. Cea.

France, so' far as food is cen0erned, is in a bad way; worse than in 1917-18, The total nutrition value for the 1915 crop of cereals, beans and pota- toes is below that of last year. The French Food Controller is authority for this statement and that the wheat crop is large and of better quality, but the maize, barley, oats, beans and potato crops are much smaller. The potato situation Is particularly grave for this year; the crop is not more than 7,500,000 long tons, as com- pared with an average for the last ten years of 12,000,000 long tons. Accord- ing to private estimates, the total wheat crop in France for 1918 will be about 180,000,000 bushels, an iucrease of about 25 per cent: over last year's production, For the throe years pre- ceding the war the average production was 324,187,000 bushels. In 1914 it was 282,680,000 bushels, while for the years 1917 and 1918 it dwindled to 144,- 149,000 bushels, It is seen that .France is "up against" it as regards the food situa. tion. ENGLAND'S DEBT TO RAIN Helps Solve the Problem of Supply- ing London lyith Water. The average rainfall for the Thames Valley in 1917 was 30.09 inches, or nearly two . inches above the average for the past 34 years, says a London newspaper, This is the sixth year in succession that the. average has been exceeded, and there was never before a se- quence of more than two years in succession with rainfall above the average since records were first taken. This freak of weather has been a stroke of luck for London. It has assured her water supply at a most difficult period, London's water sup- ply comes principally from two sour-. - ces—the Thames At Bampton, and the New River. The, water is taken from the Thames at two points about a quarter of a mile apart, All you see is a screen of cast iron bars about half an inch apart, let into a stone wall, yet through these openings pass tens of millions of gallons daily. no head of the New River is a pond between Hertford and -Ware, but the supply is increased by thirteen great wells. From these and the river nearly fifty million gallons of water pass daily into the great "ser- vice" reservoirs of North London, Since 1893 these wells have been failing. The Chadwell spring has ceased to flow. The rivers Darenth and Cray have drier} nes;! their orig- inal sources. The Orpington springs have vanished, the lialleybury Col- lege well has had to be deepened, During the next spell of dry years there is going to he a water shortage in London unless a good deal of money is anent to Prevent such a calamity. After the war one of the i:'reat works which will have to be seriously taken in had is the bringing of a new water supply from' Wales to Landon. It is said, by supporters of the ;scheme, that 168,000 per annum would be saved in soap alone, owing to the fact that the Welsh watet would ho soft and free frola,tlle chalie which London's present supply -con- tains in such quantity. Apart from this, too, the bringing of the water to London would llelil to solve the after -the -war labor problem. - The price of butter. in (fonstantie nople ranges (11001 $4.510 to $5 per alta (slightly less than 0 pounds).
