All, we'll. The sky above was filled
with pale, pure stars; the almond trees
filled the air with delicate perfume;
the nightingales were singing in the
distant trees; great floods of silver
moonlight fell over the grounds, IN
which the lilies CLEANED palely white,
and the roses hung their heavy heads.

through his arm How did it come
about? All, who shall tell? Perhaps
the wind whispered it, perhaps the
nightingales sung about it, perhaps
something in he great white lily
leaves suggested it, perhaps the pale,
pure stars looked disapproval; but it
happened that the white hand felt the
arm, and was clasped in a warm,
strong hand-a clasp such as only love
gives.
Who shall say how it happened? She
raised her fair face to his in the soft,
pure moonlight, and said to him:
Must you really go pack TO EnSldnu,
Lord Chand0s?"
The voice was sweet as music-the
face, so fair, so pure, so proud.
''Must you," she added, really go?"

answered slowly.
"Need it foe yet?' she said. II know
you must go, but the journey through
Spain will be SO pleasant, and we
might make a compromise. I will

your return
And before he left the almond grove
Lord Chandos had promised to do SO,
and as he made the promise he bent
down and kissed the white hand lying
in his.

ATLANTA, Oct. 3O.-The commercial
valuo and neSotiability of life insurance
policies were the subjects Saturday Of
decisions in the supreme court of the
state.
In one case it was decided that, "while

lawfully be taken on the life of another
by one who has no insurable interest
therein. yet. as one has an insurable in.
terest in his own life, he may lawfully
procure insurance thereon for the bene.
ut of any other person whose interest he
desires to promote. A contract SO en-
tered into is in no senso speculative
one. "
In another case in which the assign
ment OF an insurance policy was at
stake, the supreme court held that
creditor cf 4 person having his life in.
sured, who takes an assignment OF the
policy to secure his debt, is only enti-
tied to retain. after oilecting the policy.
