CHAPTER XIV.
AN OUTRAGE ON WHITAKER

Carruthers, when Horace and Herbert
went forth at the call of duty, had asked
that Baatrice's letter might be left with him.
AS he had fully proved his right to be
admitted to the family council his request
was readily granted. With the letter in his
hand he went into the library and pondered
what had happened. The question he had
to solve was what motive could have been
strong enough to force Beatrice to take such
step!
He had heard from Horace all about the
claim made upon the child, and this had ex-
planned matter which had for some days
been troubling him greatly, namely, Bea-
trice's abrupt departure from London. But
here he could see no strong motive, The
claim was abandoned, OF at least lay quies-
cent Besides, Beatrice, as be judged her,
was far more likely to fight than to fly.
He dismissed anything to do with the boy,
OF at least put it aside to be inquired into
collateraily.
Herbert, too, had limited his idea about an
attachment. Frank having ascertained
that no shadow Of suspicion of such thing
hung over Beatrice, sternly put it out Of
sight. Besides, there were one or two recel-
lections which he carried always with him
and which rendered such vulgar, unworthy
explanation something not far short of
sacrilege
He reckoned Beatrice a woman of superior
abilities, logical and perfectly able to foresee
consequences. He felt that she would not
have acted as she had acted without care
fully considering what it entailed No TO
mantle, girlish impulse had hurried her
away; no eccentricity of character had led
her to shape such a course. The reason,
whatever it might be, was to her mind am
ply sufficient
She was unhappy. Her own words said

CHAPTER XIV.
ANOTHER PAINFUL TASK

The dinner that night at Hazlewood House
was dreary affair. Frank did not see his
hosts until the gong sounded. Their calls
had kept them so long that they were obliged
to dress in undue haste to avoid unpunctual-
ity in their own persons, a thing which would
have amounted to kind of moral suicide.
The conversation whilst Whitaker was in
the room was naturally forced. Frank could
indeed tell them of the contemplated change
in his life, but as all the while he was think
ing how Beatrice would have received the
news, his communication was made with
none of his usual vivacity. Horace and Her
bert were mildly astonished. They trusted
in that way which implies doubt-that it
would be for the best. Togive up certainty
for an uncertainty seemed pity; but of
course Frank knew his own business best. A
remark with which Mr.. Carruthers mentally
agreed.
1t seemed quite in order with the misfor-
tunes of the house that the bottle of 1858

Certainly not" said Frank, pleasantly
"You stand higher than I do; you must
weigh two stone heavier; you look in perfect
condition. Oh, no, shall merely send round
to the stables and have the dogs loosed, or I
may even send as far as the village and fetch
the constable I shall not interfere further
than that"
Hervey muttered what Frank knew was
an oath. He turned away as if about to take
Franks warning. Suddenly he changed his
mind and came back
docs Mr.. Talbert know his niece's adj
dress?" he asked.
For second Frank felt almost sick. His
interrogation had tried to ask the question as
If 1t bore no hidden meaning, but he had
failed. As by inspiration Frank knew that
this man, whoever he might be, was aware
that Beatrice had fled. No." he said, look
ing him straight in the face, ''Mr. Talbert

Approaching the fact that money is scarce, the
wheat crop in our section short, and prices of

Did you ever hear ov a mans re-

No atheist, with all hiz boasted
bravery, haz ever yet dared to ad-
vertize hiz unbeleaf on biz tune

1t is a statistical fakt that the

If an infidel could not komprehend

and anxious to prove their unbeleaf,
that I hav thought they might be just

ask you to prove that the food did

TABLES TURNED ON BEECHER

Zaon's Herald tells the following
story which was related at the Rev.
Henry Ward Beecher's expense: In
one of his lectures he referred, as he
is accustomed to do, to domestic
scene which occurred when he was a
boy in Litchfeld, Conn. His father
was one day visiting a parishioner,
and noticed in his pasture particu-
larly fine-looking calf. Referring to
the excellent qualities, the farmer,
knowing the animal, said, CDR.
Beecher, you can have that calf if
you can catch him." The minister
at once accepted the challenge, and
when Lyman Beecher set for himself
a task he usually accomplished it.
Without much reference to ministeri-
al dignity, he succeeded in running
the calf down. Tying his legs he
carried him home in his wagon and
placed him securely in the barn.
Telling the family of the adventure,
Henry started for the barn to see the
frisky animal. With the usual care
lessness of boy, he permitted the
calf to escape from the barn. His
father, seeing from the house the
condition of things, started hatless
on race for the fugitive calf. Here
Henry Ward stopped a moment to
recover the application he proposed
to make, when person arose in the
audience and said, with a startling
voice, sHenry Ward Beecher, that
is just what you have always been
doing-letting loose what your father
and wisely kept shut up!"
This was an unexpected but apt ap-
plication, greatly appreciated by the
audience.

A PRETTY LITTLE STORY.-I once
heard wealthy farmer telling of his
experience in hiring boy. He said
while working in his barn one morn
ing boy of about fifteen years came
to him inquiring for work He was
much in need of a boy, and liked this
ones appearance, but being an entire
stranger he was in doubt about hir-
ing him. He said what he wanted
to know most was if the boy was
faithful in the little duties. The
farmer showed him through his large,
commodious barn, leaving him to
pass last through the doors. He
stopped and carefully closed every
door after him. Two or three tools.
that some one had carelessly left on
the barn floor, the boy picked up and
laid to one side. The farmer said
that unconscious as the boy was that
he was doing anything in his favor,
these little acts decided the question
of doubt in his mind. The boy was
hired. He proved to be careful,
faithful workman, which fact was so
appreciated by his employer that he
assisted the boy in obtaining an ed
ucation, and remembered him substan-
TALLY when he started in life.
