Mrs Slulr, came up from the saloon with
many ordinations of relief at the conclu-
sion of her voyage. She wss the wife Of
a clergyman in Dundee, and an English
woman.
Stella" she said, 'there's your dear
papa. Don't you see his head in the
crowd over there by the gangwayY'
Stella did see, and made an impulsive
movement forward. Harrington waited
silently until Stella and her father ap-
preached them. Mr.. Raeburn spoke to
Mrs. Muir, thanking her for the care
Of his daughter. and then Mr.. Hanning-
ems Introduction took place. The man.
ufacturer gave the young man a pleas
ant greeting, and stood for few minutes
on deck, talking to him; while Stella, with
her hand in her fathers arm, and Q
slight, unconscious smile on her sweet
face, listened to the conversation, and
shyly thought that she had never seen
any one SO handsome and distinguished
looking as Mr.. John Harrington.
I'VE will be glad to see you. sir. If you
should find your way to Thornbank," Mr..
Raeburn said courteously to the younger
man. ANY friend of my daughter-or
of Mrs. Muir. either-will aye be well
come. You'll come and take your dinner
with US one day, may be. if you are to
stay long in Dundee, and have the time
to spare"
Il shall be delighted to come" Han
nington answered quickly. ANY day
that suits you, sir-or that Miss Raeburn
likes to fix. You will allow me the pleas
ura of calling to-morrow-tO inquire after
Miss Raeburn-and then, perhaps"
ANY day." said Mr.. Raeburn, "just
any time you please, you will be well
come" He gave stiff little nod, as IL
to show that the conversation was at an
end. I'VE must be moving off, should
think, Stella, my dear. The carriage is
here to meet US, and your aunt has got
u fine tea ready for you at the other end"
Stella. with her hand resting on her
fathers arm, gave gentle little smile to
Ia Ia RHiIgt6n. She TOOK her hand from his
arm and gave it first to Mrs. Muir and
then to Mr.. Harrington. He held II in
his own for moment longer than IL
usual under such circumstances; and
then, as her fathers back was turned. |
and the lights around them were but dim. |
he bowed mis- head over it and raised II to |
his lips.
Stella drew it away, coloring violently.
and as she did so her eyes met those Of Q |
gentleman who must have been q specta.
tor of the scene. 1t was "Nloncrieff of |,
as Harrington had named !
him to her; and the keen. cold face was !
set in lines of a gravity that was almost |
stern. Stella felt as if he had condemned |
her for this act of John Harrington, and
she was conscious of an emotion of shame |
and distress, quickly succeeded By some !
thing very like resentment. What right !
had this stranger to look at her with
those critical eyes? Stella's nature was
very gentle, but she was not without her
share of pride, which was little wound
ed by his gaze.

Open Air Exercise.

Mr.. Sargent, of England, has pub
iished some remarkable facts showing
the influence of outdoor occupations
and exercise in lessening the rate OF
mortality, and that of all indoor occu.
pations, If long continued, in raising the
rate of mortality among the classes fol.
lowing them. The greatest longevity
Of persons living in the country ap-
pears to be almost wholly due to the
f'ct that the greater portion of time Is
spent out of doors. Though occasional
iy exposed to all sorts of inclement
weather, these ruralists attain a much
greater average of longevity than any
class Of professional men, tradesmen.
shopkeepers or mechanics who spend
the greater portion of their days work
ing or sitting in confined atmosphere.
1t is even shown by Mr.. Sargent's splen-
did array of statistics that the city scay-
Lngers and sewer men, who are daily
exposed to all kinds of foul odors, are
ionger-lived than the tradesmen and
professional people, owing, no doubt,
to the vital influence of the open air In
which they spend most of their time.

Let us not be pessimistic nor blank
facts. Just because the tariff on
prunes is changed from 20 per cent ad
yalorem to cents a pound specific
duty is no reason why prune raising
is going to be a bonanza. Don't blink
the facts. The conditions of the older
countries are fast becoming the con-
ditions here. Where nature makes a
concession the corresponding penalty
follows. The growth Of our fine soil
and climate has to compete with a
similar soil and climate in France,
italy and Asia Minor. Our prunes
have to compete, in New York with
the countries named. The protection
of the tariff is very little il anything,
as the cost of transportation by rail
is nearly equal To freight by water
and tariff added. The Frenchman
will prosper on 500 francs year as
prune grower, while the American
will starye at the corresponding $50
a year. But Americans may as we'll
accept the conditions If they intend
to continue in the business. We do
not say this to discourage American
prune grows in Oregon, but rather to
warn them against big expectations
as a result of change In tariff. Gil
mates, geography and peoples are not
changed so quickly as tariff. Cali
fornia is full of Chinese, japanese and
Italians, who will produce prunes on
the basis of European prices and be
satisfied with the European scale of
wages and European living. Well
managed prune orchards can be made
to pay in Oregon, but no Que should
be deceived into expecting enormous,
or even big profits, from prunes, be-
cause of a tariff.
