in all obedience, loyalty and affection;
but"
Love, Gertrudew he cried out, with
burst of impatlence. by St George,
l do not think you know what love
means!'
At this Gertrude leaned back In one
corner of the vehicle, her heart full OF
disappointment and sorrow.
She was reproducing herself for the
deceItful part she had played towards
the ever-indulgent old man who had
reared her from tenderest infancy and
was regretting that she had placed any
reliance on the promises of Sir Basil
Dovetree. Gertrude had been educated
to revere the truth, of which she enter
tanned the highest possible regard. Sir
Basils dereliction from the truth had
shaken her faith in him, and, for the
time being, had somewhat weakened
the warmth of her attachment for him.
During the space Of Il whole half hour
Sir Basil and Gertrude exchanged not
word with each other.
Presently she aroused herself. The
carriage had stopped before pair of
large iron gates, which being flung open
on the instant Gertrude saw before her
only a long dark avenue of old elm
trees, the branches of which seemed to
wave to her sad and mysterious well
come.
"You cannot see Eagle Tower just
yet" observed the baronet, perceiving
his companion casting wistful glances
through the carriage windows. BY
and-by it will burst into sight"
Gertrude made no reply, save by a
slight inclination of her head; and the
equipage proceeded onward under the
shadow of the waving trees.
Sir Basil was i'll at ease-he had much
| cause to be so, you will say-he was
longing to make his peace with Ger
tru6e, Tut was at loss how to set
about the matter. He had 10 intention
of yielding to her wishes with respect
to that which he had promised her
| No, no! The Tower was ready to receive
her, and under the roof Of Eagle Tower
| Gertrude must henceforth learn to con-
| tent herself.
Sir BaSiIs heart was aSSuredly not
| growing any gentler or kinder; on the
contrary, it was gradually closing itself
| against nearly every charitable feeling.
Yet, mid all, his passion-I will not
| call it affection-'m all, repeat, his
| passion for Gertrude abated not an
atom of it's warmth. He had bought
her at a fearful, sinful price, and he
| cared for her beyond his very soul. He
would have laid his body at her feet,
and kissed the earth she trod On-he
would have strewed her path with gold
and gems-he would have done this,
and hundred times as much more, in
these the first hours of his whirling,
headlong, frenzied feeling,
Presently Eagle Tower became visible
to the occupants of the vehicle, and
| Gertrude once more looked through the
carriage window.
Its a fine old place, isn't it, Ger
| trudeY' asked the baronet.
''It looks like a PRISON. she shud-
dered.

agreed Sir Basil. But it's goodly

Esg-Eating by Fowls.

Egg-eating hens are often the result
of habit formed by having access to
broken eggs, though In other cases
the habit comes from an mate hunger
born of the lack of proper food ele-
ments containg the nitrogen and the
phosphate aud eat the eggs TO obtain
them
The Poultry Yard says: The habit
CT egg-eatIng by the hen Is, at times,
a very serious one with which to deal,
though / never have been troubled with
1t but once, and then for short time
only. As | breed no fowls but Part
ridge-Cochins, / presume / am not
troubled as much as those who breed
the smaller kinds of fowls, for / think
the Asiatics are not so apt to acquire
the habit In question as are the smaller
breeds, for the former are generally
possessed of a quiet disposition, while
the latter, especially the Leghorns, are
very active.
AS preventives are better than cure,
will suggest a few which / practice
According to my judgement the habit
Of egg-eating is oftenest formed by hay
ing soft or thfn-shelled eggs laid in the
nest. These are almost sure to be brok-
en- by the hen while on the nest, and
she will be very apt to eat the broken
egg. Then, first, feed your hens shells,
meats and such variety Of food that
all the eggs will be likely to have
hard shells.
Occasionally there is hen that never
lays other than soft-shelled eggs, and
she will soon acquire the habit of eat
ing eggs. The best remedy for such an
egg-eater is to give your hens plenty
of work, especially the smaller breeds,
for Satin finds some mischief still for
idle hands to do" Strew thicllly over
the hen house floor, or small yards,
leaves from the woods, or chaff from
the hay loft, in which scatter wheat,
oats, screenings or the coarser parts of
cracked corn. To find the food thus
scattered, and partly hidden, will give
the hens capital employment during
the close confinement Of the winter
time and is most excellent to keep them
out Of mischief

one of the advertisements which prom

money was to be made by the sale of

to advertise for agents, to whom she
would furnish the goods. She actually
expended $50 for the first installment

LUCY STONES MARRIAGE. a
A Singular Document, Which Clearly De.

A singular Document, Which Clearly De-
fined Her Personal Rights.
Just before their marriage Lucy
Stone and H. B. Blackwell drew up
and signed the following document:
While acknowledging our mutual
affection by publicly assuming the
relationship of husband and wife,
yet in justice to ourselves and a
great principle, we deem it our duty
to declare that this act on our part
implies no sanction Of nor promise of
voluntary obedience to such of the
present laws of marriage as refuse to
recognize the wife as an independent,
rational being, while they confer
upon the husband an injurious and
unnatural superiority, investing him
with legal powers which no honorable
man would exercise and which no
man should possess. We protest
especially against the laws which
give to the husband:
l. The custody of the wife's person.
2. The exclusive control and
guardianship of their children.
3. The sole ownership of her per-
sonal and use of her real estate, I'M
less previously settled upon her or
placed in the hands of trustees, as
in the case of minors, idiots and
lunatics.
4. The absolute right to the pro-
duct of her industry.
5. Also against laws which give to
the widower so much larger and
permanent an interest in the proper
ty of his deceased wife than they
give to the widow in that of her de-
ceased husband.
6. Finally, against the whole sys-
tenn by which ''the legal existence of
the wife is suspended during mar
riage," so that, in most states, she
neither has a legal part in the
choice of her residence nor can she
make a will, nor sue or be sued in
her own name, nor inherit property.
We believe that personal independ-
ence and equal human rights can
never be forfeited, except for crime
that marriage should be an equal
and permanent partnership, and so
recognized by law; that until it is so
recognized married parties should
provide against this radical injustice
of present laws by every means in
their power.
We believe that where domestic diff
iculties arise no appeal should be
made to legal tribunals under exist
ing laws, but that all difficulties
should be submitted to the equitable
adjustment of arbitrators mutually
chosen.
Thus, reverencing law, we enter
our protest against rules and customs
which are unworthy of the name,
since they violate justice, the essence
Of the law.

When we have a revival Of any fash

ment on the old, and the revival of
fancy work done on canvas with crew
els silks and woods is no exception. In
the first place, better designs are used,
and instead of an attempt at natural
flowers and animals, conventional
forms are used, worked in the softest

hint of what the kernel is like, for 1t Is
