CHAPTER XVI.

Thus it happened, that although Mrs.
Bregy and her husband hal been parted
for upwards OF tw nty years, he still
held the same power over her which he
possessed in the past and could control
her as easily as ho had done when he
first made love to her on the benches in
Washington Park
With his wltc Alphonse Dregy's Sc
cret was quite safe. Known as Mr..
limerick he was free to 60 and come as
he pleased without tho world being any
the wiser regarding his identity.
Yet ho was about to play desperate
game, and it would tax his deceptive re-
sources and daring spirit to tho utmost
to carry it through to successful issue.
The world must learn at once that Mrs.
Eregy had made mistake in his idcn-
tty, but the rest must transpire grad
ually. No suspicious must be raised.
One Of the first whom Mrs. Breezy
spoke to after telling her son Of her d )

THE DAIRY.

A cows milk and butter record for

than study Of her escutchcon. -Massa-
chusetts Plowman.
The conditions which are unfavorar
bic in keeping milk affect the cream
first. hence the need of great care In
managing cream.
Study the COW. says an exchange.
That is first rate advice. but some COW
owners would take big step forward II
they would study themselves little.
The experience ef the best dairy
men has demonstrated that the plain,
ordinary, half-breed American cattle
are the best for dairy purposes. both as
regards the quality and the quantity Of
the milk.-Farm. Field and Stockman.
Grain is threshed once, and gives its
yield then. The cow. If threshed, will
not yield milk, but if fed on grain and
good plants, and well cared for and
sheltered. she will yield paying return
twice q day for many days each year.
If you have q good COW and IN in
fcrior one. suppose you keep their milk
separate month or two and compare
the results. Then if you will estimate
from that what the difference will be
for several months. we think you will
get rid Of the inferior cow.-Western
Rural.
Mich cows require special care and
feeding as winter progresses. Liberal
feeding. regular sailing, pure water and
If slightly warmed the better; and card
ing daily. are items that pay in the case
of cows. especially if you are engaged
in winter dairying-a business which
may be made profitable in many local
tics il properly managed.

he picked quarrel with Dan. q
grandfatherly old cat who had oc-
cupied a place in the household long be-

liberties taken with him by this spoiled
pet. and with good intentions. no doubt,
dealt him a smart cuff on the ear. This
SO enraged Bonnie that he flew ut his
would-he instructor in manners. and
very lively battle ensued. Pussy heard
the tumult. and thinking from Bonnie's
angry squeals that the old gentleman
was unduly severe. rushed to the spot
and defended her willful and rebclious
child. Such behavior on her part caused
rupture in the family. which. am sor-
ry to say. never healed. And from that
time. as long as Bonnie remained there,
Dan never entered the house without

ECONOMY IN FEEDING.
How to Obtain the Hest Results fro
EAnd.

How to Obtain the Hest Results from
Food.
1t is as important to feed the cattle in
a suitable place as it is to supply them
with food at the proper time. Clean
managers and comfortable stables have
much TO do in determining the degree of
Cattle that have to eat in open yards,
where they are exposed to cold and
winds and storms, can not utilize their
fool to the best advantage, and the
cast is still worse when the yards are
muddy or the hay is thrown on manure
heap in an open shed. Too many cattle,
even in the East where barns are al
ways supposed to be provided, have
very poor places in which to eat. They
waste great deal Of food, which, if
given under better conditions, they
would be able to utilize.
The proper choice of the kind of food
to be supplied also has much to do with
economy in feeding. The lowest priced
foods are not always the cheapest in
the end, and the use of any article to
the exclusion of others is sure to be
followed by unsatisfactory results. A
variety of food is necessary to the pres
ervation Of health and the profitable
production of flesh or milk, and the
man who attempts to cheat nature by
feeding only the cheapest or the most
convenient material will find that his
labor is in vain. The varying prices OF
different kinds of food may justify using
them in varying proportions at different
times, but no change in the cost of ma
terials will make it possible to secure
j the best results from animals which for
long period are allowed no change OF
diet.-American Dairyman.

4 Reporter Treated to an Exhibition Of

The reporter followed the electrician
down the stairs. An underground
