There is a tree in the West Indies that
the natives say ''grows dishesp 1t looks
like an apple tree. They call it the Gala
bash.
1t bears very queer leaves and large
white blossoms that grow right from the
trunk and larger branches. After the
flower comes the fruit, just as our apples
or peaches do. But this fruit is in the
shape of gourd, only stronger and
much larger, sometimes foot in diam
eter.
Now, see what use the people of that
country make of this fruit. The shell is
so hard that all sorts of big and little
dishes and drinking cups can be carved
out of it. Even pots and kettles are
made and used over the fire, but of
course they cannot last as long as our
iron ones. Is not this serviceable tree?
No wonder the natives are proud of it..

CHAPTER III.
BREAKING THE ICE.

The cottage from the window of which
the Misses Williams had looked out
stands, and has stood for many a year, il
that pleasant suburban district which
lies beween Norwood, Anerley and For
est Hill. Long before there had been q
thought of township there, when the
metropolis was still quite distant thing,
old Mr.. Williams had inhabited "The
Brambles," as the little house was called,
and had owned all the fields about it.
Six or eight such cottages scattered over
rolling countryside were all the houses
to be found there in the days when the
century was young. From afar, when
the breeze came from the north, the dull.
low roar of the great city might be heard
like the breaking of the tide of life, while
along the horizon might be seen the dim
curtain of smoke, the grim spray which
that tide threw up.
Gradually, however, as the years
passed, the city had thrown out long
brick feeler here and there, curving, ex-
tending and coalescing, until at last the
little cottages had been gripped round by
these red tentacles and had been ab-
sorbed to make room for the modern vii
la. Field by field the estate of old Mr..
Williams had been sold to the specula-
tive builder and had borne rich crops of
snug suburban dwellings arranged in
curving crescents and tree lined avenues.
The father had passed away before his
cottage was entirely bricked round, but
his two daughters, to whom the property
had descended, lived to see the last YES
tlge of country taken from them.
For years they had clung to the one
field which faced their windows, and it
was only after much argument and
many heartburnings that they had at
last consented that it should share the
fate of the others. A broad road was
driven through their quiet domain, the
quarter was renamed 1.-THE Wilderness"
and three square, staring, uncompromis-
ing villas began to sprout up on the 9TH
er side. With sore hearts the two shy
little old maids watched their steady
progress and speculated as to what fash
ion of neighbors chance would bring into
the little nook which had always been
their own.
And at last they were all three finished.
Wooden balconies and overhanging caves
had been added to them, so that, in the
language of the advertisement, there
were vacant three eligible Swiss built
villas, with 16 rooms, no basement, elec-
trio bells, hot and cold water and every
modern convenience, including a com
mon tennis lawn, to be let at e100 a year
or 81 800 purchase. So tempting an offer
did not long remain open. Within few
weeks the card had vanished from No.
/, and it was known that Admiral Hay
Denver, V, c., G. B., with Mrs. Hay
Denver and their only son, was about
to move into it. The news brought peace
to the hearts of the Williams sisters.
They had lived with a settled conviction
that some wild, impossible colony, some
singing family of madcaps,
would break in upon their peace. This
at least was irreproacha-

"Oh, let us get away, BerthaI" cried
Monica, with her thin black gloved hands

'And you live, as understand over

nice of you to call so early. don't sup
pose that we shall get on, but still the
intention is equally good" She crossed
her legs and leaned her back against the
marble mantelpiece.

be of some assistance" said Bertha tim
idly. eff there is anything which we
could do to make you feel more at
home"-
"Oh, thank you; am too old trav-
eler to feel anything but at home wher-
ever go. I've just come back from a
few months in the Marquesas islands,
where | had very pleasant visit. That
was where l got Eliza. In many re-
spects the Marquesas islands now lead
the world"
Dear mel" calculated Miss Williams
''In what respect?"
"In the relation of the sexes. Thev
have worked out the great problem upon
their own lines, and their isolated geo.
graphical position has helped them to
come to conclusion of their own. The
woman there is, as she should be, In ey-
cry way the absolute equal of the male.
Come in, Charles, and sit down. Is Eliza
all right?"
"All right, aunt"
"These are our neighbors, the Misses
Williams. Perhaps they will have some
stout. You might bring in couple of
bottles, Charles"
mo, no, thank youl None for usl"
cried her two visitors earnestly.
