The new school buildings at AnnaIy
have been completed and were handed over
to The School Board on tuesday, and the
children from Rose Hill school were re-
moved to Anualy School the next day.
The new buildings are situated on the road
from Annaly to Oxford, a short distance
S.W. of Annaly works, in a pleasant and
airy position. with a fine prospect i'll front.
They consist Of a school room about 80 feet
in length by 2G feet in breadth, aneat little
dwelling for the teacher, Il small stable,
tank etc. All the buildings are covered
with GALVANIZED Ron, and are neatly paint
ed in drab aud white on The outside. The
whole makes a very pleasant impression
as seen from the road, and has been con-
Strucled, we believe, a. a very moderate
cost, which in these days is a consideration
of no small importance.

He tcdtched the t,oo IN an agony Of dread.
and he knew Nell. and was desperately
afraid of them both In way. afraid of
them apart-and together well then his
fear amounted to agony-to agony.
But he could see. and he saw that his
wife and Mrs. Antrobus were sitting very
close together with their hats or bonnets,
or whatever they were, almost touching
one another. and he guessed by the oily
smile on Mrs. Antrobus' fat face and the
satisfied nodding Of her head and the out
spreading Of her broad fingers. that she
was fully set going on the subject Of
Polly's engagement! And oh! what sigh
he gave when his thoughts got thus far
sigh so big and full Of regret that Mrs.
Trafford said in her most tender and
sympathetic manner. as your knee very
painful. Lord Charterhouse?"
Not the least in the world now. he re-
turned, promptly. waking out of his re-

it's horrid nuisance, for being easy at
times forget to move it about as ought
to do"
Very cleverly fenced, but the explana-
ton did not take in Mrs. Trafford in the
very least.
Still Mrs. Antrobus and Lady Charter
house chatted confdentially on. the young
lady's attention becoming more and more
interested. and the old ladys mods getting
more and more pronounced And at last
Mrs. Tratford rose and went to join them.

CHAPTER VII.
A eWISs FAIR

Miss Earle was still q visitor at the
Deanery, and was to remain yet another
week in order that she might take part in
o bazaar. for which the ladies of every
age and grade in the neighborhood had
been working for many month past.
She had enjoyed her visit far more than
she usually enjoyed visits Of any kind,
and in spite Of the season Of real hard
grinding work under which every officer
and man in the garrison was then groan-
ing, she had seen good deal Of that lieu
tenant of the Bankshire regiment. who,
in common went by the name of Beautiful
Jim. The more she saw Of him the better
she liked him. while Beau iful Jim was
on his part, as he graphically put it. so
dead broke in the way Of spoons that he
could not possibly be any broker
This bazaar was to be an unusually
smart affair 1t was in aid OF the funds
of the City hospital and. as the dean was
president of the committee. was to be
held in the grounds at the back of the
Deanery and residence These were both
large and spacious gardens. divided only
by park railing and wicket gate.
Then not only was it to be bazaar but
also n mask OF flowers and a pastoral playi
The bazaar in the guise of Swiss fair.
was to be held in one garden and the mask
and pastoral was to bs given in the other,
Aud it was really wonderful how this
Deanery gar'!en had been transformed;
more than twenty chalets had sprung into
existence in various parts of it. a row with
open fronts beng the bazaar proper. and
others scattered here and there for such
purposes as fortune telling, refreshments,
flowers. art gallery and a cafe chantant
where almost all the amateur singers in
Blankhalnptou were to hold forth as
sirens who would charm shillings and half
crowns ont of the pockets of all Corners
for the benefit of those who were poor
and sick in the community.
There was a tish pond without any wa
ter and an Al t,ne dairy where the sweet
est and freshest OF milk was dispensed
for consideration by the sweetest and
prettiest of dairyraids: and there was Q
very smart little shop with the sign of the
red glove. next door to one in which pipes
and sticks of every size and shape aud
price might be bought.
The whole thing was wonderfully well
managed. Each chalet had its double set
of ladies'. one permanent saleswoman
whose name hung over the door, the rest
bright and as far as was possible beauteous
young damsels who divided their labors
between acting As assistant shopwomen
to their head for the time being and tax

adjoining garden,

WHEN TO USE THE FINGERS.

Celery is always taken from the dish
and carried to the mouth by the fingers.
If individual salts are not provided, it is
etiquette to use one half Of the butter
plate for salt
Those who are very particular hold the
large end of a spear of asparagus with q
fork. while with the tip end Of knife
they daintily separate the tender green
tops from the white end. which is then
put aside.
When corn is served on the cob it
must be taken in the fingers, only man-
aged very daintily. We have seen
pretty little doy lies for the purpose Of
holding it. but it is a question if that Is
not carrying table linen too far.
When slice of lemon is served with
fish or meat it is much more correct to
take the slice in the fingers. double the
ends together and gently squeeze the
juice over the article than to Use knife
for that purpose. as is sometimes done.
Watercress Is taken in the fingers. and
the prettiest way Of serving it is to oh.
