CHAPTER VI.

Now when the sun began to sink
toward the west, Namarah called to
her maidens, and arrayed herself in
garments richly wrought and beauti-
full, as one that keepeth a great feast.
Her robe was all of white, embroid-
cred with gold and the encrusted folds
fell heavily about the splendid curves
of her most noble figure. In her loos-
ened hair were twisted chains of gold
that wrapped it in and out, and made
a light and darkness beautiful to see.
About her shoulders, which her robe
left bare, she wrapped a scarf OF
golden tissue, through which her
cleaning neck and arms shone fair as
moonlight seen through sunbeams.
And when the maidens and all the
household of Jephthah wondered to see
her so adorned, she spake, and said
unto them:
81 go to meet my father Jephthah
and his host returning from victory.
And when they asked her:
How knowest thou that he hath
won the day, and is returning?"
She made answer, as the saying was:
"A little bird hath told me-"
And they knew not how true indeed
were the words she spake.
And as the sun sank lower and lower
and it began to draw toward evening
behold, there fell upon the ears of Ma
marah and her maidens the distant
sound of tramplng horses and anon
the notes of a trumpet.
"They be notes Of victory; even as
thou hast said," spake one of the maid
ems, while Namarah stood and listened
breathless and half troubled, like an
image of too perfect joy. And Mama
rah said
81 will even go forth to meet them.
Whereat her maidens wondered, fol-
it was her custom to await her father
within the house, feeling of timidity
ever preventing her from appearing
before the eyes of the soldiers. But
now there showed in all her bearing
a very noble pride, so that she looked
no longer a shy and trembling maiden
but a woman and the daughter of a
conqueror. There was a most rich
hue of roses on her cheeks, and heI
great eyes blazed and sparkled, so that
Namarah looked that day a being OF
such glorious beauty as none who
looked on her had ever seen before.

To Keep Glasses On.

Isn't it strange" said Mr.. Burton,
while in a reminiscent mood, "how dis
coveries are made? OF course, that
is a general statement. but to the case
in question. l wear glasses, as you
know, but l found great trouble in
keeping them on. They were contin-
ually following the laws of gravita-
ton and falling to the floor. The
trouble was that l did not have a
bridge of size, and l spent money and
time experimenting with different
kinds of springs and claps and nose
pieces, but all proved failures. Now,
the other night / had an idea Chats
all right, 1 am guilty of an idea once
in a while) that if / would put some
powdered rosin on my nose that would
hold 'em for a while, so l accordingly
hunted up my friend, the violinfst, and,
getting some rosin, made test. Was
IL a success? Why,I can turn hand
spring backward and those glasses are
still doing business at the old stand ;"

and avowed that l have found favor
In his eyes. The white bird will bear
to thee those tidings. and before set
of sun we shall be with thee. God
grant to me, o maiden, that thy heart
may reach forth to mine with the same
love wherewith l feel mine reach to
thee, as l write these lines, to be held
in thy dear hands beneath thy dear
eyes. THY ADlNA."
Now, as the maiden Namarah read
these words, there rose within her so
great a rapture that her very face did
glow and become radiant with joy.
For until her eyes had rested on the
young man Adina, she had known not
what it was to feel the mighty love
wherewith a tender virgin loyeth, with
her soul and heart at once, the youth
whose nobleness and virtue command
her worship and devotion, and the ex-
ceeding joy Of this moment wrapped
her soul in a great wave of ecstasy,
that make the shining of her eyes like
unto the light of stars. To feel that
Adina loved her, he who was unto her
eyes the very prince of men, and that
her well-beloved father looked with
favor on their union was a bliss so
great, that almost she felt as If her
heart within her must burst for very
joy. AS she sat in her chamber alone,
and read again and yet again the pre-
cious message that the bird had
brought, such visions as ever fill the
minds of maidens when love is come
in truth passed like pictures before
her. She saw herself meeting with
Adina without the need of concealment
and she felt again those arms about
her and those kisses on her lips, at the
mere memory of which she thrilled.
She saw the calm delight upon her be-
loved fathers face, as he blessed her
union with Adina, and gazing further
yet into the future, she saw herself
the happy wife and mother.

Dear Sir and Friend-We had a
lucky trip, made good connections and
got to Wetaskiwin Monday afternoon;
stayed there all night, bought pony
and saddle for the boy and hired a
three-seated rig for the balance of us,
and got home to dinner next day;
caught the boys cleaning up and get
ting ready to come after us. Wednes-
day the snow was all gone and we had
bare ground and bright sunshine for
a month, and it has been pleasant
weather ever since. The ground Is
frozen about two feet and about six
inches of snow-just enough for good
sleighlng. We had one cold spell in
December The thermometer went
down to 80 below zero, but We did not
suffer with the cold at all. We have
worked every day all winter, are all
we'll and feeling well; have built log
house 1Sx1S, two log stables 16x18, and
are now busy on a well. We have 10
cows, three other cattle and six head
of horses. The boys send their best
respects to Mr.. Huchison, and say they
will talk to him enough to pay for not
writing when he gets up here; will
write you again next spring and tell
you all about the winter. We all
unite in sending you and family our
best wishes and respects and hope this
will find you all well.
Yours very respectfully,
