His •shrunken, crippled limbs ached. His head sank on his breast. He droop- ed and slept forgetfully. The School- master strode the length of the kit- chen.. The fire smouldered low. He threw' some wood on it The crackling flames flashed and played freakishly across the room. He wondered if Conal would come—where he was. The hours passed. There was no sound or sign of late riders from the Wirree. He opened the door of the hut. The night was very still. Only a mopoke called plaintively in the distance, There was a stir in the room in which Davey was sleeping. Farrel heard Steve's voice in startled and sleepy protest. The door opened, Davey stood on the threshold, his eyes with a delirious brightness in them. "What have you done about those calves?" he asked, his voice quick and clear. "We are going to let 'em go," Steve gasped. "You go back and lie down' now, Davey." "You can't do that with the new brands on them," Davey brushed him , aside, irritably. "I'm all right now. I can take them to the Valley. It's a bit of luck M'Laughlin hasn't turned up yet. P'raps I upset his calculations , —hie and McNab's. He's not so fond' of getthn' a move on, Johnny Mac. Might eve guessed I'd got a notion he was going to be busy when I went round asking for Conal: Thought we'd give him the slip anyway and he'd save himself the trouble of coming!" He laughed a little unsteadily. I'll get the calves along to the Valley, He fell back from her hands. She 'threw herself across him, sob- biegbrokenly. Pressing her faceclose to his, she leant over him, murmuring and trying to revive'him with ith a breathless agony of grief and tender nese. "Oh, come back to mel Oh, you will not die. You willnot die and :leave me," she moaned "Deirxlre, that loves you. Your sweetheart, Davey!" Tho cry died away. • In her .frenzy she had not heard th door open.

"He's dead—and it's you that hay killed him, Coned," she said, at length "You—love—him, Deirdre?" Cone asked•. So slow and dreary their voices were that they see ed'to be talldin in their sleep. "Yee," she said, "and it's niy hear that's dead with him." Inc "I didn't know you felt like that—' S about him, Deirdre," Conal said, 1 humble, awkward air about liim.

The stock -yards which Conal ha put up at the end of Narrow Valle were invisible to any but those wh knew the winding track that led ove the brow of the hill and through th heavy timber on the spur, to the of hut at the foot of it. Teddy was pul the rails of the outer -yard in place and Deirdre was going toward the hut, Soaks at her heels, his kid' over her arm, when a horseman rod out of the opening into the valley, b which they had come. She recognized the red horse, but did not know that it was Davey rrdin till he was almost level, and droppin to his feet. He swayed against th horse's side, clutching hisereins. "It's a shame .. no one to brin the brutes but you," he said weakly I came—soon as I knew."

She drew the horses by their reins behind them, keeping her eyes on him. Theground rocked under his feet. "We're just there—another minute and it'll be all right," she said, and tailed Teddy. He had seen Davey Cameron's red horse coining into the clearing, and ran up to her. chattering with fright "Put the horses up in the shed— eave the saddles on," she said quickly. 'You go back, tell boss—cows all right—Davey very sick man , here." Although an hour earlier nothing would have induced the boy to brave the darkness alone, it was not many moments before he was up on his weedy, half -wild nag and streaking away towards the cover of the trees and the thread -dike track which wound uphill along the spur. Deirdre opened the door of the hut Davey took a step or two into it and fell orward. She set the brushwood en the hearthalight, and threw some broken branches over it to make a laze. There was no stir in Davey hen she knelt beside him, and a pool of blood lay on the floor where he.had (alien. She ran out of doers for water.

Tips to Canna Growers. My canvas make much more beau- tiful plants if I start them early. The bulbs do best if they are growing well before being, set out. They are heat lovers, and wild not grow to amount to anything if planted while the soil is cold. If started in pots or flats and allowed to get •a geed start they will make blooming plants just that much sooner. A canna clump is increasing in size all the tine while growing. Each flowering stalk sends out two side shoots, with eyes at their end, as soon as the parent shoot is well launched on its way, so this increase in size is pretty rapid.The more of these side shoots I can get tb bloom- ing size the more flowers I have. The plant wilt keep on sending up bloom- ing stalks and forming new eyes until frost stops it. It follows that even a little start ahead of the time you can get the billies to grow outside, which is not earlier than you plant the started plants, will make your donnas niucli more eil.'ective during the whole blooming season. It is not that it makes then a little earlier, but that It makes them correspondingly more beautiful for the whole summer after they begin blooming. Cannes are so hardy and so easy to start and transplant that you do not have to pamper them any.

The Real Robin Hood. Some of you will, pei'hapa.l1ave visit • - ed Kirkless Hall, near 'Duooaster, where that famous hero oe.pantomime, Robin-Ifood, is said to have been bled to death by a faithless nun,and near by you will, perhaps, have 0,een the :grave where, according to tradition, the,famous, outlaw is buried, The exact spot woe, oI .course, chosen by an arrow shot from the near by Hall when Robin'' realized that he was dying. There are people, how- ever, . who scoff, ami •say an arrow could net posibly haye been shot so great a distance, but, nevertheless, the matter has been never properly set- tled either way. As an epitaph form- erly on the grave said:— "Here underneath this little stone Lies Robert, Marl of Huntington, No archer was as lie so good, And people called him Robin Hood." Another famous pantomime hero la. Robinson Crusoe, and Perhaps his talo is as closely founded on fact as. any of the Christmas stage stories. The original Crusoe was named Alexander Selkirk, and it was whilst, serving as a sailing master, that he, committed some breach of the ship's regulations, for which the captain put him ashore on the island of Juan Fer- nandez, off the Chilian ,coast, and left him to. his ,tats, There he remained five years, until be was rescued by. a Captain. Rogers and brought back to• England. "Mother Goose" is another panto- mime with a good deal of truth be- hind it. There once lived in Boston a widow who had six children. In time she married Isaac Goose,,a,man with ten children. With: so many children; she, of course, "didn't know what to do," hence the rhyme and the well- knownantomim T e. "Jack Korner' Is reputed to have lived in the reign of Henuy VIII, At that time a certain abbot wished •to send the title deeds of some property to the Ring. As in those days, however, the roads 33 ere infested with robbers, the deeds were hidden In a huge pie, which Ives entrusted to John Horner: But, des, pita this care, the deeds never reached the Ring, for, as . you know, Jack Horner: • — "Put In a thumb 7 And pulled out a plumb (the title deeds•), • And said, What a good boy am I.' " In support of thie story it is inter• estiazg to know that the estate' to which the stolen title doede were said to refer is still owned by it family • called. Horner. iinfortunately, how- ever, they say that their estate was bought from Henry VIII., and that there never was such a pie as dos- cribed.in the story. So what are we to believe? Watch Your Lips.

Tips to Canna Growers. My canvas make much more beau- tiful plants if I start them early. The bulbs do best if they are growing well before being, set out. They are heat lovers, and wild not grow to amount to anything if planted while the soil is cold. If started in pots or flats and allowed to get •a geed start they will make blooming plants just that much sooner. A canna clump is increasing in size all the tine while growing. Each flowering stalk sends out two side shoots, with eyes at their end, as soon as the parent shoot is well launched on its way, so this increase in size is pretty rapid.The more of these side shoots I can get tb bloom- ing size the more flowers I have. The plant wilt keep on sending up bloom- ing stalks and forming new eyes until frost stops it. It follows that even a little start ahead of the time you can get the billies to grow outside, which is not earlier than you plant the started plants, will make your donnas niucli more eil.'ective during the whole blooming season. It is not that it makes then a little earlier, but that It makes them correspondingly more beautiful for the whole summer after they begin blooming. Cannes are so hardy and so easy to start and transplant that you do not have to pamper them any.

The Real Robin Hood. Some of you will, pei'hapa.l1ave visit • - ed Kirkless Hall, near 'Duooaster, where that famous hero oe.pantomime, Robin-Ifood, is said to have been bled to death by a faithless nun,and near by you will, perhaps, have 0,een the :grave where, according to tradition, the,famous, outlaw is buried, The exact spot woe, oI .course, chosen by an arrow shot from the near by Hall when Robin'' realized that he was dying. There are people, how- ever, . who scoff, ami •say an arrow could net posibly haye been shot so great a distance, but, nevertheless, the matter has been never properly set- tled either way. As an epitaph form- erly on the grave said:— "Here underneath this little stone Lies Robert, Marl of Huntington, No archer was as lie so good, And people called him Robin Hood." Another famous pantomime hero la. Robinson Crusoe, and Perhaps his talo is as closely founded on fact as. any of the Christmas stage stories. The original Crusoe was named Alexander Selkirk, and it was whilst, serving as a sailing master, that he, committed some breach of the ship's regulations, for which the captain put him ashore on the island of Juan Fer- nandez, off the Chilian ,coast, and left him to. his ,tats, There he remained five years, until be was rescued by. a Captain. Rogers and brought back to• England. "Mother Goose" is another panto- mime with a good deal of truth be- hind it. There once lived in Boston a widow who had six children. In time she married Isaac Goose,,a,man with ten children. With: so many children; she, of course, "didn't know what to do," hence the rhyme and the well- knownantomim T e. "Jack Korner' Is reputed to have lived in the reign of Henuy VIII, At that time a certain abbot wished •to send the title deeds of some property to the Ring. As in those days, however, the roads 33 ere infested with robbers, the deeds were hidden In a huge pie, which Ives entrusted to John Horner: But, des, pita this care, the deeds never reached the Ring, for, as . you know, Jack Horner: • — "Put In a thumb 7 And pulled out a plumb (the title deeds•), • And said, What a good boy am I.' " In support of thie story it is inter• estiazg to know that the estate' to which the stolen title doede were said to refer is still owned by it family • called. Horner. iinfortunately, how- ever, they say that their estate was bought from Henry VIII., and that there never was such a pie as dos- cribed.in the story. So what are we to believe? Watch Your Lips.
