A LITTLE LESS THAN LOVED.

To be little less than loved;
 U, empty hearts the wide world over, Have you not often thought of this
 While waiting for the one true lover? To be little less than loved,
 To have all friendship and all honor, Yet miss that one kind, tender hand
 Which sets woman's crown upon her. To love little less than love-
 When one could make one heart the gladdest, Or be little less than loved
 Dear heart, know not which is saddest Marion Manvillo.

A Preservative of Wood.

Naphthaline is now largely used in Scot- land as a preservative of wood, it's action being to- destroy all albuminoid compounds in the wood, leaving it dry and clean to handle, and with only a faint aromatic smell. The naphthaline is melted ill Q vessel capa- ble of being tightly sealed, and in this the wood is ssaturated.-Chicago Times.

Onacitv of Clear Water.

Even the dearest water is perfectly opaque from certain point of view. This may be discovered by raising glass of water little above the level of the eye and attempting to see an object held just over the surface of the water The latter appears just like furnished mirror, and the eye eau see noth- ing beyond it. A glass of whisky, if raised to a level of the mouth an indefinite number of times, will prevent the eyes from seeing an object no matter where it is held.-Chi- capO News

make him sit down, or he'll be OVERRIDING IT.
These men never know any medium-in any
thing"
Contrary to Kate's expectation, FalkneI
returned earlier than usual, and, taking the
invalid's arm, supported him in more am
bilious walk along the terrace before the
house. They were apparently absorbed in
conversation, but the two women who OBJ
served them from the window could not help
noticing the almost feminine tenderness OF
Falkner's manner toward his wounded
friend and the thoughtful tenderness of his
ministering care
II wonder" said Mrs. Hale, following them
with softly appreciative eyes, "if women are
capable of es disinterested friendship as men!
never saw anything like the devotion OF
these two creatures. Look! if Mr.. Falkner
hasn't got his arm round Mr.. Lees waist,
and Lee with his own arm over Falkner's
neck, is looking up in his eyes. declare,
Kate, it almost seems an irdiscretion to look
at them"
Kate, however, to Mrs. Hale's Indignation,
threw her pretty head back and shifted the
air contemptuously. Il really don't see any
thing but some absurd sentimentalism OF
their own, OF some mannish wickedness
they're concocting by themselves. l am by
no means certain, Josephine, that Lees inAu
ence over that young man is the best thing
for him"
"On the contrary! Lees influence ms
the only thing that checks his waywardness, "
said Mrs Hale quickly. I'm sure, If any one
makes sacrifices it is Lee; shouldn't wonder
that even now he is making some concession
to Falkner, and all those caressing ways Of
yo ar friend are for a purpose They're not
much different from US, dear"
"Well, wouldn't stand there and let them
see me looking at them as if l couldn't bear
them out Of my sight for moment" said
Kate, wnisking herself out of the room,
They're conceited enough, heaven knows,
already"
That evening at dinner, however, the two
,ner exhibited no trace of the restraint or un-
eas:hess of the previous day. If they were
les impulsive and exuberant, they were still
frank and interested, and if the term could
be used in connection with men apparently
trained to neither self-control nor repose,
there was certain gentle dignity i'll their
manner which for the time had the effect of
lifting them little above the social level of
their entertainers. For even with all their
predisposition to the strangers, Kate and
Mrs. Hale had always retained a conscious
attitude of gentle condescension and superb
ority toward them-an attitude not incon-
sistent with a stronger feeling, nor altogether
unprovocative of it; yet this evening they

A morning of bright sunshine and soft,
warm air did not, however, bring any change
to their new and constrained relations. 1t
only seemed to offer a reason for Falkner to
leave the house very early for his daily
rounds, and gave Lee that occasion for un-
aided exercise with an extempore crutch on
the veranda which allowed Mrs. Hale topur-
sue her manifold duties without the necessity
of keeping him company. Kate also, as If to
avoid an accidental meeting with Falkner,
had remained at home with her sister. With
one exception, they did not make their guests
the subject of their usual playful comments,
nor, after the fashion of their sex, quote their
ideas and opinions. That exception was made
by Mrs. Hale.
"You have had no difference with Mr.
Falkner," she said, carelessly
ANo," said Kate, quickly. "Why%
u only thought he seemed rather put out
at dinner last night, and you didn't propose
to go and meet him to-day"
"He must be bored with my company at
times, dare say" said Kate, with an indif
ference quite inconsistent with her rising
color ~ shouldn't wonder if he was a lit
tie vexe1 with Mr.. Lees chatting him about
his sport yesterday, and probably intends te
go further to-day and bring home larger
game I think Mr.. Lee very amusing al
ways, but l sometimes fancy he lacks feel

stamping up and down the veranda. Per,
haps you'd better go and soothe him."
"Tm really so busy just now," said Mrs.
Hale, with sudden and inconsequent energy;

last week. You had better go, Kate, and

"But--is Mr.. FallSner oil that?'
@Nothing Of the kind, assure you'll" said
he demurely. "But that's the way a man in
love feels"
"Reallyl Mr.. Falkner should get you to
plead his cause with Kate" said Mrs. Hale
with faint laugh.
Il need all my persuasive powers in that
way for myself" said Lee boldly.
Mrs Hale rose. II think hear Kate COM

away at is Kate coming" she added hur-
riedly, stopping to pick up her work basket,
which had slipped with Lees hand from her
own.
1t was Kate, who at once flew to her sisters
assistance, Lee deploring from the sofa his
own utter inability to aid her. "It's all my
fault, too," he said to Kate, but looking at
Mrs Hale at seems have faculty of up

power Of improving them, or even putting
them back in their places What shall l do?
I am willing to hold any number of skeins or
rewind any quantity of spools. am even
willing to forgive Ned for spending the whole
day with you, and only bringing me the wing
of hawk for supper"
"That was all my folly, Mr.. Lee" said
Kate, with swift mendacity; "he was all the
time looking after something for you, when I
begged him to shoot bird to get feather
FOR my hat And that wing is so pretty"
at is pity that mere beauty is not edible"
said Lee, gravely, "and that if the worst
comes to the worst here you would probably
prefer me to Ned and his mustachios merely
because I've been tied by the leg to this sofa
and slowly fattened like Strasbourg goose.
Nevertheless his badinage failed somehow
to amuse Kate, and she presently excused
herself to rejoin her sister, who had already
slipped from the room. For the first time
during their enforced seclusion a sense of re-
straint and uneasiness affected Mrs. Hale, her
sister and Falkner at dinner. The latter ad-
dressed himself to Mrs Scott almost entirely.
Mrs. Hale was fain to bestow an exceptional
and marked tenderness on her little daughter
Minnie, who however, by some occult child
ish instinct, insisted on sharing it with Lee,
her great friend, to Mrs. Halos uneasy con-
sciousness. Nor was Lee slow to profit by the
childs suggestion, but responded with certain
vicarious caresses that increased the mothers
embarrassment. That evening they retired
early, but in the intervals of a restless night

the Opposite room, that the friends were

COUNTY COURT GUARDIANSHIP.

Who will be chairman of the new coun-
~ court from October till january
This is question that many members of

come agitated over, and purposely so, per-
haps.
The agitation has been conducted for the
most part by opponents Of Squire d. G.

election TO the Craftsmanship last January
wires had been set TO spring on the day
the Office was to he filled. These clever
workings Of the opposition were countered
by Squire Slaughter, and when the vote
was taken he went in with handsome
majority. His term OF Office was one year,
being 80 fixed by statute. Now that an

some eighteen former members, thOs, OPP

point about which confusion arose. Nari-
