Whilst I was talking I was con-
scious that the new tenant of Cloom-
ber Hall was peering at me very
closely through the darkness. As I
coneluded•he stretched out a long
tremulous arm and turned the gig -
lamp in such a way as to throw a
flood of light upon my face.
"Geed gracious, McNeil!" he
cried in the same frightened voice
as before, "the fellow's as brown as
chocolate ! He's not an English -
Man. Yeu're not an Englishman—
you, sir ?" •
"I'm a Seotehman, born and
bred," said I. with an inclination
to laugh which was: only checked by
my new acquaintance's obviens ter -
legs . •
"A. Scotehman, eh?" said he with
a sigh of relief, "It's all one now -
a -days. You must excuse me, Mr.
—Mr. West. I'm nervous,infernal-
ly nervous. Come along, Mo -
Neil; we must be back in Wigtown
in less than an hour, Good night,
gentlemen, good night!" The two
clambered into their places; the fac-
tor cracked his whip, and the high
dog -cart clattered away through
the darkness, casting a brilliant
tunnel of yellow light on either
side of it, until the rumble of its
wheels died away in the distance.
"Whet do you think of our new
neighbor, Jamieson 1" I asked after
a long silence,
"Deed, Mr. West, he seems, as
he says himself, to be vera nervous.

''His liver, more likely," said. I.
"He. looks as if he had tried his

chill, Seth, my lad, and it's time
both of us were indoors." I bade
my companion good night, and
struck across the moors for the
cheery rudy light which marked the
parlor windows of Branksome.
CHAPTER III. •
There was, as may well be imag-
ined, much stir among our small
community at the „pews that the
Hall was -to be inhabited once more,
and ounsiderable speculation as to
the new tenants and their objects in
choosing this particular part of the
country for their residence. It
speedily became apparent that,
whatever their motives might be,
they had definitely determined up-
on a lengthy stay ; for relays of
plumbers and of joiners came down
from Wigtown and there was ham

timely visitor must either have used
eonsiderable violence in order to
force his way in, or he must have
obtained possession of the keys.
Piqued by the little mystery, I
pulled for the beach, with the de-
termination to see for yourself who'
the intruder might be, and what
were his intentions. Leaving my
sister at Branksome, and aummoe-
ing Seth Jamieson, an old man -o -
war's -man, and one ell the stoutest
of the fishermen, I set off across the
moor with him through the gather-
ing darkness.
It hasna got a quid name after
dark, yon hoose,"remarked my
corapanion, slackening his pace per-
ceptibly as I explained to him the
nature of our errand. "It's no Inc
naething that him wha owns it \mi-
na gang within a Scotch mile o't."
"Well, Seth, there is some one
who has no fears about going into
it," said I, pointing to the great
white bull -cling which fliekered up in
front of us through. the gloom. The
light which I had observed from the
sea was moving backward and for-
ward past the lower floor windows,
the shutters of which had been re-
moved. eould now see that a see-
oncl fainter light followed a few
paces behind the other. Evidently
two individuals, the one with a
lamp and the other with a candle
er rushlight, were making a care-
ful examination of the building.
"Let ilka man blaw his ain 13B1.-
•
ritch," said Seth Jamieson dogged-
ly, coming to a dead stop. "What
is it tae us if a wraith or a bugle
chooses tae tak' a fancy the Cloom-
ber 1 It's no canny tae meddle wi'
such things.''
"Why, man," I cried, "you don't
suppose a wraith came here in a
gig! What are those lights away
yonder by the avenue gates?"
"The lamps o' a gig, sure
enough!" exclaimed my companion
in a less lugubrious veice. 'Let's
steer for it, Master West; and speer
where she hails frac."
By this time night had closed in
save for a single long, narrow slit
in the westward. Stumbling across
the moor together, we made our
way into the Wigtown Road, at the
point where the high stone pillars
mark the entrance to the Cloomber
avenue. A tall deg-eart stood in
front of the gateway, the horse
browsing upon the thin border of
grass which skirted the road.
'It's a' richt said Jamieson,
taking a, close look at the deserted
vehicle. "I ken it well. It be-

"It doesn't mention there whe-

his white head with a keen :appeem-
atiois of his own. hum -or, "It doesn't

'daring actions—though it very well
might, my dear, it very well
might."
All our :deubts, however, upon
this head were very soon set at
rest, for on the very day that the
repairing and the furnishing had
been completed I had oceesien to
ride into Wigtown, and I met upon
the way a carriage which was bear-
ing General Heatherstone and his
family to their new home. An eld-
erly lady, worn and sickly looking,
was by his side, and opposite him
sat a young fellow about my own
age and a girl who appeared to be
a couple of years younger. 1 raised
my hat, and was about to pass
them, when the general shouted to
his coachman to pull up, and held
out his hand to me. I could see
now in the daylight that his face,
although harsh and stern, was ca-
pable of assuming a not unkindly
expression.
"Hew are you, Mr. Fothergill
West?" he cried. "I must apolo-
gize to you If 1 was a little brusque
the other night—you will excuse an
old soldier who has spent the best
part of his life in harness. All the
same you must cunfess that you are
rather dark-skinned for a Scotch -
man."
"We have a Spanish strain in our
blood," said I, wondering at his re-
currence to the topic.:
"That would, of ceurse, account
for it," he remarked. "My dear," •
to his wife, "allow me to introduce
Mr. Fothergill West to you. This is
my son and my daughter. We have
come here in search of rest, Mr.

Feeding for Milk Production,
There are two factors which
largely eontrol the eeenomioal pro-
duction of milk. One is the adap-
tebility of the cow used for this pur-
pose and depends ellen her indi-
vidual breed characteristics. The
other is the amount and kind of
food eaten. The problem confront-
ing the dairyman is the production
of the largest amount of lank and
butter at the least expense. In or-
der -that this eria,y be realized, both
the important factors mentioned
must receive careful attention,
writes Mr. 0. H. Eckles.
In most cases the largest direct
expense is for feed. liveryone fa-
miliar with the prevailing condi-
tions knows that a large amount of
feed is used without producing the
results it should. It would be safe
to say that the average yearly milk
production per cow ,could be in-
creased by one-half or three-fourths
by following better methods of feed-
ing.
Every owner of a cow welcomes
the time when the animal can lie
turned out to pa,sture, Not only
is the labor and expense connected
with winter 'feeding done away
with, but each cow is expected to
give the best results of the year on
grass. In changing from dry feed
to grass, it is best to go somewhat
slowly, especially with heavy milk-
ing cows. The young, immature
grass of early spring contains n
large amount of water and a small
amount of dry matter, and it is al-
most impossible for a heavy milk-
ing cow to eat enough of such feed
to supply the necessary amount of
nutrients.
Wheat and Rye Pastures
are of the same nature. Another
reason for putting cattle on pasture
gradually rather than suddenly is
the effect on the taste of the milk.
When a cosy is changed at once from
a grain ration to grass a very mark-
ed taste is developed in the milk,
while if this change in feed is made
gradually and not suddenly the
change in the taste of the milk is
scarcely noticed.
Soon after the cows are on pas-
ture they reach the maximum pro-
duction of milk for the year. This
suggests -what the dairyman must
do in order that', the production of
milk may be the largest. It is to
imitate these •stimmer,coaditions as
far as possible throughout the re-
mainder of the year, This is what
the careful dairyman and skilled
feeder does, and the results corre-
spond closely to the success with
which these summer conditions are
maintained. The summer condi-
tions which bring about the maxi-
mum production and which are to
be maintained as far as possible
throughout the year, are described
in the following statement:
First—An abundance of palatable
food.
Second—A balanced ration.
Third—Succulent feed.
Fourth—Moderate temperature.
Fifth—Comfortable surroundings.
There is some difference of opin-
ion. regarding grain feeding while
on pasture from the viewpoint of
economy.,
There is no question but that a
Dow will produce more , milk if fed
grain while on pasture, and if a
large yield is of more importance
than economy of production, grain

should certainly be fed. The cow
that gives a small average quantity
of milk will produce but little more
if fed grain while on pasture. Hoer-
ever, with the heavy producing cow
the ease is quite different and it is
necessary that she be fed grain or
she will not continue on the high
level of production long. The ne-
cessity of feeding grain to the high
producing cow arises from the, fact
that she cannot secure a sufficient
amount of nutrients from the grass
alone, and must have some concen-
trated feed in the form of grain in
order to continue to produce
Largo Quantifies of Milk.
As long as fresh pasture grasses
abundant, the ordinary cow is
period, often of several weeks, oc-
curs during the middle or latter
part of summer and the pastures
become short and insufficient to
maintain a full flow -of milk, This
season is often the critical time of
the year for the dairy eow. It is
probable that as much loss occurs
one year with another by lack of
feed at this time as occurs from int
proper feeding during the winter
season.When the season of dry
feeding. arrives, the farmer expects
to feed his stock and is prepared
for it. On the other hand, as long
as the cattle are on pasture and the
field work is pressing, tho tendency
is to let the cows get along the best
way they can.

T4) a great many people the one
inperdonable sin a men can come
lit is to marry beneath him. Yet
le who selects a life partner from
he ranks of domestic eervants, for
nstance, has nothing to be ashamed
if, says London Answers.
Many groat men have married de-
estits, and it can be truthfully
aid that they have been more, con-
sisted with their lob than a largo
amber of their fellows who have
nada what are termed "good
etches."
In a word, the domestic servant,
earns how to keep a house in oe-
er. And she has just as much
room for the softer feelings which.
upply so mach of the poetry of life,
s the young lady who site at home,
nd plays the piano.
Married and Below Stairs.
Mr. Arthur Joseph Munby, a bar -
dater and a litterateur, left a will
which revealed the fact that since.
1873 he had been happily married to
his servant, Hannah Oullwick. -Mr.
unby referred to this romance in
the following statements in his will:
"Whereas, Hannah Cullwick, ser-
vant, has been for 45 years and up -
yards beloved by me with a pure
and honorable love, and not other-
wise, and she, the said Hannah, has
using all that time been as faith-
ful and loving and devoted to me
as ever woman was to man, and
whereas, after vainly trying to ex-
plain this state of things to my
father, I married the said Hannah
—she being then in my service—
publicly, in the presence of all her
kindred who could be got together,
at the parish church of Clerken-
well, in the county of 1Vliddlesex,
on the l4th day of January, 1873.
And Whereas, the said Hannah has
always Defused, and still refuses, to,
have the position which as my wife
the might and mild have had, and
has always iasisted, and still
'nets, on being my servant as well:
as my wife, her one grievance be-
ingsthat she cannot be my only ser-
vant, and whereas, awing chiefly to
this noble and unselfish resolve of
hers, I have never been able to,
make 'known my said marriage to
my.family, or to the world at large,
andlhat the same is known only to
her kindred and three of my most
intimate friends."
Training `Chat Tolls.
That the girl who has been train-
ed as a servant has an excellent
chance of marrying well, can. be.
gathered from the following case:
Mr. Edward Langenbach, a wealthy'
inhabitant of Canton, Ohie, reeent-
ly led to the altar a poor Norwe-
gian cook named Rem Jansen. Mr.
Langenbach engaged Miss Jansen,
as cook in hib household. and pro-
posed to her after she had prepared'
his first dinner.
It must not be forgotten that Sir
1 Henry Parkes, thrice Premier of
;New South Wales, chose his wif e-
1 rom his household. After becom-
ing susceptible to the charms of his
cook, he finally led her to the altar.
As Lady Parkes, the ex -cook was
never known to commit even one of
the small Social blunders that so-
ciety W•0111C11 are always looking out
for. She stood well in everyone's
eyes, and Sir Henry's married life
