CHAPTER IN
DICK AT HOME

1t will now be necessary for us to di-
gress, in order TO follow the movements
of Mr.. Richard Hargrave. Jr, from
the time that he and Tom left the mill.
The four-mile drive to Hillsboro was
quickly made. Little talking was done, for
Dick was communing with himself. His
heart and thoughts were centered on that
cottage in the wilderness, and he was Won
dering how the time would pass until he
could visit Philadelphia. He scarcely no.
tees the little village as they drive through
and stop at the station, and, ere he is aware,
Tom has the baggage checked, and they are
aboard the train steaming along the valley
toward Pittsburg.
Tom, with his usual eye for comfort, has
secured two seats in the smoker, facing
each other, and, stretching themselves out
and lighting their cigars, they proceed to
enjoy themselves as much as the circum-
stances will permit. Many a stranger turns
TO glance a second time at these two hand
some, strongly built travellers, who show
evidence of sojourn in the woods, but
they are too much occupied with themselves
to notice this.

or some other uneXplored region. That
confounded wagon liked to have shaken
my teeth out, he exclaims, with a sublime
disregard for grammar.
Dick mutters something under his breath,
which might be construed into anything or
nothing, and Tom continued:
THE only ching L regret. Dick, is that
we have no game TO take home to show the
boys. Now, if we had brought home dead

placed IN the museum, we would be the
hons of Pittsburgh, so to speak. Imagine,
for instance, a huge stuffed dromedary
standing in the Exposition Building with
the inscription tackled TO its back bone,
This animal was captured and killed by
Mr.. Thomas Warner, after terrific and
deadly encounter Now, that would sound
nice, and give fellow prestige; but here
we are going home without even a chip
hunks tail to show as a trophy of our skill
and valor.' And Tom ratified on in this
way, unaware Of the fact that Dick was not
needing a word he said.
The journey to Pittsburgh was finally
completed. and shortly after noon they
alighted in the smoky city, where, securing
carriage, they We're driven rapidly up
Penn avenue.
As Tom alighted before the paternal resi-
dence, he said, "Good-by, old boy. | sup

the next hour I've got an engagement with
the governors dinner table. I'm half

CANT home, and impatiently rang the bell.

BOnnets and Gowns,

Dress bonnets for evening wear in the
theater, or for reception given in the
afternoon, are seen In white velvet OF
course this is only the foundation; the
brlm Is usually bound with velvet in almost
any of the darker shades popular at present,
Heliotrope or "Judic" looks well in this
connection; plstache green, dark blue, or
salammbo may also be found very pretty
and harmonious. The punishment con-
slsts usually of ostrich plumes, which
should be of the same color as the velvet
which is used to cover the brim. On some
OF these bonnets, the crown is covered with
silk net, on which are worked delicate de-
signs IN neutrality-suspicious. being fire.

effect. Beads, by the way, form one of
the most popular garnishments of the sea-
son; they are used not only in the form of
p6ss6-nenterle, but strung, without the silk
backing, on evening and reception toilets
Garnet Is the tint chiefly chosen, and the
beads are In some instances very large.
The simmer or CLEAN which this stvle of
dress decoration adds to the fabric upop
which the beads are laid produces an
effect which is always pleasing and beauti-
ful. jet passementerle IS also used very
extensively. Plush nantes, unless they
be IN the short visite forms, are unfinished
ulhCoo dAuioSt SHtiItlg covered with paSSe-
mentere designs, and these are shown in
the most beautiful and elaborate figures,
with pendants of jet along the lower edges
The wells worn at present reach usually
to the chin, and are always of plain net,
scalloped at the edges. Black and garnet
are the eolors worn, pearl gray being some
times seen.
Boas are seen again in fashion. and seem
to have taken firmer hold than ever upon
the popular fancy. They are now worn
very long, and the end hangs over the
shoulder. Three yards and a half is the
fashionable length for boa, although this
IS not at all invariable, some ladies wear
ing them shorter and others longer than
this. Huge fur collars are likewise much
IN vogue, but the old-time tippet is net now
favored.
For general wear, the ordinary velvet
capote is seen on all hands Nothing is
more useful or at all times more respect
able IN appearance, and the trimming, be-
SIDES, is so entirely matter of taste to the
Tearer. Beaver and felt hats and bonpets
seem to be well liked by the tickle dame,
Fashion, this season, and are IN extensive
use, particularly for young ladies'. They
are very convenient, as a single ostrich
plume or keot Of satin ribbon is sufficient
20 trim them. and they always look peat
and launty.

out: "Oh. Missy Claude! Missy Claudie,

Slowly the evelids raise, hutter, then
close again, as little sign escapes her lips.
Carefully old Chloe gathers her up IN her
strong arms, the arms that carried her so
often in her baby days, and softly lays her
down upon the couch; then, running TO the
dressing case, she brings camphor and
cologne, bathes her head tenderly, caress-

with loving solieitude.

Alarmed, Chloe now calls To her, begs her

dark and furowed cheeks, but no answer
comes from those mute lips. She looks
about in vague and puzzled manner, max
ing no effort to move. In terror, Chloe
now flies to the door, rings the little call
bell. and cries loudly for help, and. in
moment, the house Is in commotion. Aunt
Helen comes flying up the stairs as fast as

who has Just arrived, follows closely, and
the servants come quickly from different
directions.

great drops of perspiration stand out upon
his forehead. Aunt Helen, trembling vio-

tries to call forth some sign of recognition,
but without avail. She lies before them
passively, but they are strangers to her
now-she understands nothing. Their
Claudie, their darling, lies before them
simply in form. Her reason has departed.
Her mind has fled.

A GOOD way to kill out sorrel is to

They grow very large, often reaching

THERE is no reason why the wire
fences OF poultry yards and around
the field should not be used for grape
vines. Quite large amount of such
fruit could thus be economically
grown, and the fence would not be in

1t was sorrowful household at Philip
Raymond's that evening.
The servants moved quietly about, speak
inc in whispers Each one felt a genuine
grief. for Claudio was beloved by all.
They asked no questions, and they were
simply told that she had tainted, and was
i'll.
Old Chloe watched continually by her
side, and Aunt Helen scarcely left the
room. Raymond had told her as much as
he deemed necessary, and had now retired
TO his room, leaving orders to be called at
once should she be worse. The lights were
burning low. They had hoped that she
might sleep, and would awaken in her right
mind; but as the night grew ON she became
more restless, tossing her arms about, and
talking incoherently of a little lake, of
flowers, trees, and of the little cottage in
the woods. 1t was evident ere morning
dawned that she was growing worse; her
face was flushed, and high fever had
set in.
When the Doctor arrived again he looked
serious, and shook his head grayely. Il
think you had better secure the services of
a professional nurse, Raymond" he said;
and if you have no objections / will send
one to you. Claude will be i'll some time,
and viii need great care"
"Do whatever You think best, Featherly, s"
Raymond replied, mo matter what the ex-
pense may be.
And so that evening professional nurse
was installed in the sick-room, a young
woman of pleasant manners, who moved
about quietly, doing many little things to
relieve the sufferer.
The days wore slowly on. At times she
appeared quite easy, the light of reason
shining in her eyes; but it did not last
long. and the delirium returned with all its
herceness.
1t was on the fourth day of Claudie's i'll
ness. Mr.. Raymond and his sister were
seated in the drawing-room She was
somewhat better, day, and their counte-
nances looked more cheerful than they had
during the four days. a servant entered,
bearing note which she said messenger
boy had brought, and was waiting a reply.
Tearing open the envelope, Raymond read:
LYNN House, PHILADELPHIA,

rived in the city. May [ call. Respect

Raymond arose, and, going TO his desk,
took sheet of paper and wrote:

Then, sealing it, handed it to the waiting
girl.

The reason why manure is more

that they are more porous than CLAW

TINS action OF oxygen upon any mate
