He rallied at the sound Of that be-

She knelt at his head.
Forgotten you?" Still looking at
her, he lifted his hand with an effort,
and laid it on Frank. Should I have
been strong enough to save him, If
could have forgotten you?" He waited
moment, and turned his face feebly
toward Crawford. "Stay" he said.
Some one was here and spoke to me. "
A faint light of recognition glimmered
in his eyes. "Ah, Crayford!. I recol-

A faint smile trembled on his lips. 1t

the face-the stiffness of Death.
Crayford's voice was heard in the
silence.
"The loss is ours" he said. "The gain

A Marvellous Needle.

Among the many treasures owned by
the queen is a wonderful needle made
for her in Buckinghamshire. The
needle is a miniature of the Roman
column OF Tgajan, but instead of the
exploits of Roman emperors, scenes in
the life of Her Majesty are depicted.
One shows the queen when a young
girl at Tunbridge Wells, another
scene is the coronation at Westminster.
while third shows the royal marriage
with the prince consort. The figures
in all these scenes can only be made
out plainly by the aid Of magnifying
glass. The needle can also be opened,
and it contains several others, all Of
the same form, and all are adorned
with miniature figures in relief.

THE END.
ENGLAND'S GARDEN.


called the garden of England, has one
of the highest ladies of the land as its
governor, inasmuch as Princess Beat
rice, daughter of the Queen of England,
is the resident governor and takes as
much interest in the affairs of the
tiny domain as any man ever has
who occupied the same position.
Women rule in the land. The sta
ton is kept by woman-Whipping-
ham station-and it is the boast of the
capable elderly stationmistress that no
man helps her sell. tickets or care for
the tiny and picturesque station. From
the station a charming country road
winds along mile to the royal viii
lage OF Whippingham which is rustic
but well-kept and within the Osborne
domain. The postoffice is very quaint
with its matched Gothic roof and
whatever letters are waiting to be
called for are shown in the window
like merchandise. A woman presides
over this and to another woman is in
trusted the care of the village church.
The chapel contains royal pew, for
when the queen is at Osborne she al
ways attends church. Opposite her
pew is the marble memorial to Prin-
cess Beatrice's husband. Whipping
ham enjoys the distinction of being the
only parish church at which the mar
riage of child of the reigning mon
arch has taken place.
Very interesting are the queens
almshouses, long row of cottages,
connected into a rambling building
covered with ivy, picturesque and pref
ty. Here live the widows of the Os-
borne estate and several old couples
whose days of toll are ended. One
particularly bright couple are Mr.. and
Mrs. Jackman-he having driven a
plow before the estate was purchased
by the queen and having passed into
her service along with the property.

the unseat!ng Of that representative by
a partisan vote in March last, thus dis
