THROUGH THE DARK SHADOWS
Or The- Sunlight of Lovc
CHAPTER XIII.
The morning following the disas-
trous steeplechase, Mr. Jasper Ver-
mont ordered his car, and then sat
down to write to Adrien. He told
him that he regretted having to leave
the Castle so suddenly, buturgent busi-
ness required his presence in London,
and that he avould return to Hamill-
ster as soon as possible. •
On the appearance of the motor, he
took his departure, travelling direct to
Jermyn Court, where he stayed to
lunch, waited on by the attentive Nor -
gate as though he had been Adrien
himself. Then, having filled his cig-
ar -case with his friend's choicest
Cabanas, he strolled through the fash-
ionable parts of the peek.
The loungers and idle men of fa-
shion who usually frequented it at that
time of the day knew him well, and
nodded With forced smiles of friend-
ship—it was clearly to their interest

"Oh!" remarked Mr. Vermont
simply; but his "oh" was full of
meaning and apparent sympathy for
the misfortunes of his friend.
,"Yes, that hard-hearted old skin-
flint, Harker—what a mean brute he
is! I should like to bury him, and
would attend his funeral gladly to be
certain I had seen the last of him. He
holds a pretty little tot -up in the way
of bills of mine, and I expected, na-
Weeny enough, when I called on the
firm, that they would renew them at
the usual Shylock rates, and I could
try elsewhere for something to go on
with."
"Yes," said Mr. Vermont, "of
course, that's the way you have done
for years."
Captain Beaumont nodded.
"Yes, that's so; but Harker only

"Why, of course, Harker or any-
body—who wouldn't?" asked the
Guardaman, as the cloud dispelled
from his face at hepe coming so quick-
ly from this unexpected quarter.
"Why, it's' as good at the Bank of
England. Harker bake it?—he'll
snap at it. Only try him and see his
greedy eyes glisten. What could
Harker get by selling me up ?—ab-
solutely nothing. Besides, it would
do him harm by letting others know
how harshly he served me. Oh no,
Harker will not sell me up if he can
find such an easy, safe way out of the
difficulty."
"True," said Jasper pleasantly.
"Well, I'll interview Leroy and see if
I can persuade him to assist you, as a
friend of mine; I believe I can do it
for you. Going to Lady Merivale's
to -night? Yes? Then we shall meet
again; fill then, au revoir."
So, with a shake of his fat, smooth
hand, the benevolent, unselfish Mr.
Vermont took his departure, still smil-
ing serenely, on the business which
had brought him that day to London.
Nobody knew Jasper's peivate ed-
thoegh, of course, all moneylenders
are rogues—and You're only a money-
lender, you know." He looked' up for
a moment to laugh at 'the logical joke,
"Who backs his paper? Lord Standen.
Oh, my lord is pretty deep in our books
already, isn't he? Where are his
statistics?"
"Here, sir," said Harker, taking one
of the papers from the heap.
Jasper Vermont glanced at it, and
laid it down again with an evil smile
on his face '
"Oh, he's, geod for more than that.

For Catarrhal Deafness
and Head Noises
I-Tere in AmeSIEE there is muck suffer-
ing from catarrh and head noises. Ameri-
can people would do well to consider the
method employed by the English to Com-
bat this insidious disease. Everyone
knows how damp the English etiolate is
and how dampness affects those suffer-
ing from catarrh. In Englarkel they treat
catarrhal deafnese and head noises as a
constitutiokal disease and use an inter-
nal remedy for It that is really very
efficacious,

desk stood a telenhone which com-

Whip cream in a pitcher instead of

The shortening for pie crust should

chopping knife.
If you have a. pair of new shoes to
brealc in, sprinkle them generously
with talcum powder.
Rickrack braid sewed on the edges
of the ruffles of children's undergar-
ments will save wear and tear,
When whipping cream, to keep it
from spattering out, place a piece of
stiff paper over the top of the bowl,
with a small slot in the center for the
beater.
Linen shades that have become too
soiled for use may be washed, bleach-
ed, ironed and utilized as 'a covering
for an armchair. The Linen is al-
ways cool and refreshing.
