The tea dishes having hecn cleared
away, Yates got no more g.impses of
the girl through the open door. He
rose from his lowly seat and strolled
towards the gate with his hands in his
pockets He remembered that he had
forgotten something and cudgeled his
brains to make out what it was. He
gazed down the road at the house oi
the Howards, which naturally brought
to his recollection his meeting with
the young girl in the road. There was
n pang OF discontinue in this th5r .yht,
when he remembered the accomplish
ments attributed to her by Mrs. Bart
lett. He recalled his condcsccnding
tone to her, and recollected his anxiety
about the jug. The jug! That wa3 what
he had forgotten. He flashed glance
at old Hiram, and noted that the farm
er was looking at him with something
like rcpronch in his eyes. Yates moved
his head almost impcrccptibly to-
wards the barn, and the farmers eyes
dropped to the floor of the veranda.
The young man nonchalantly strolled
past the end Of the house.
II guess I'll go to look after the
horses" said the farmer, rising.
Here's looking ut you" said Yates,
strolling into the barn, tal;in., tclc-

clinIing it into receptive shape by a
jerk of the hand. He offered the now
elongated cup TO Hiram, who declined
any such modern improvement.
"Help yourself in that thing. The
jugs good enough for me-"
Three fingers" of the liquid gurgled
out into the patented vessel, and the
farmer took the jug after a furtive look
over his shoulder.
well, here's luck" And the news
paper man tossed on the potion with
the facility Of lcng experience, shut
ting up the dish with his thumb and
finger, as If it were q metallic opera
hat.
The farmer drank silently from the
Jug itself. Then he smote in the cork
with his open palm.
Better bury it in the wheat bin" he
said, moroscly. The boy might find it
il ye put it among the oats-feedin' the
horses, yc know"
Mighty good place" assented Yates,
as the golden grain flowed in a wave
over the submerged jar. II say, old
man. you know the spot; you've been

Bartlett's lowering countenance in
dicated resentment at the imputation,
but he neither affirmed nor denied.
Yates strolled out of the barn, while
