taken on recommendation OF the officers

was found that the low assessments
were not sufficient. A rise was followed
by vigorous protests. Another rise was
necessary two years ago and the com

This sort of goading was maddening.
Evelyn turned upon the offender. II

ness of voice and look.
The elder girl grasped the speakers

In the semi-darkness of the room. Her

saying. at would humble him 10 the

sister drew up chair and sat down
near Evelyn.
"Tell me how II came about" she
said.
For n moment Evelyn seemed drawn
out OF a stupor OF gloomy reflections.
"IIe had threatened 20 kill Ronald"
she began--"to kill him on sight--and
Ronald's brother gave him a."
"Oh, moan how did you ever hap

CHAPTER XIII.

When Evelyn reached home, after
leaving the message with Dave. she
found her sister waiting for her in the
garden. Caroline Hasbrooke said
nothing until the groom had led away
the pony, then, with a malicious
glance at Evelyn, she opened up:
81 guess you've heard about Ronald
Fanshaw."
Evelyn nodded; she could not trust
her voice to calm utterance just then;
besides, IL behooved her 10 dissemble.
"He has murdered Sydney Hart"
Evelyn drew a quick breath and re-
torted:
"He did IL in self-defense-absolute-
~ in self-defensei"
az don't believe a word of it,"
Evelyn bowed her head and passed
on up the steps. realizing that even IL
she could justify her lover in Caro-
lines eyes IL would not benefit his
cause in the slightest, and she had
heart for nothing that could not light
en- his woe. But Miss Hasbrooke was
not satisfied. Nagging was an amuse-
ment to which every brain-cell she
possessed was adapted. She followed
Evelyn into her room and closed the
door with significant care and soft
ness.
$50 you see what you escaped" This
was her first shot, and she coolly
ranged her guns again on Evelyn, who
stood at the dresser, removing her
gloves and hat.
II don't understand you," said Eve
lyn.
Caroline came step nearer, her sharp
eyes flashing.

The colonel had come in from tire
some ride across his domain and sat in
his study looking over some legal pa
pers. The soft light of n German stu
dent lamp brought his fine face out
strongly and clearly from the darkness
round him. He had spread the papers
on the top of his mahogany desk.
Only the day before he had insured his
life for another large amount, and he
was thinking of making will which
would divide his property equally be-
tween his two daughters. One of the
servants approached with card.
"Tell Capt. Winkle," said he, as he
glanced at the card, "that cannot see
him tonight, unless 1t is something of
Importance"
''He said it was very important. sub"
The old man fumbled his papers with
nervous fingers.

then see that we are not disturbed"
Col. Hasbrooke opened the door of
big iron safe and thrust into ii his pa
pers. He remained standing, his eyes
on the door. Capt. Wrinkle wore riding
boots and held his gloves and whip in
his hands as he entered.
II dropped in only for minute, colo
nell" That was his greeting, but it
was n cold one, unlike the young Off
GERS usual suavity. Indeed, his tone
seemed almost TO carry menace. The
colonel's perception was keen, and he
fell to wondering and drawing hasty de-
auctions.
"You are always welcome at earn
leigh, Capt. Wrinkle. Nebo, take the cap
tain's things. What will you drink,
sir?"
Wrinkle waved the servant away, and
stood watching him till he had gone,
then he leaned on the back of chair.

Among the lorely hills II lies.
Deep, dark. and still:
And mirrors back the changefui skies.
The sun, moon. stars, the bird that lilies,
The broad. brown-shouldered hiiL
The worlds wide voice Is silent here;
The cries Of men,
The sob, the laugh. the hope, the rear.
The things which make earth sad and dear.
Lie all beneath It's ken.
And only he who comes from far.
Seeking the deep
Communion sweet with sun ana star,
Knows OF the calm and JOY that are
In it's vast stirless sleep.
For here the eternal soul holds speech.
Yet makes no sound;
with naught but clouds which one might

The black food, the untrodden beach.
And hearkening space. around.

The path we trod
Ends with tho worlds end here. and

Can neither see nor dream OF aught
Save mans own heart and God.

INTEMPERANcE in EATING.
4 Common Failing That Is Harmful
and of which hut Little Notice
II Taken.

Volumes have been written and mill
lions OF words have been spoken
against overindnlgence, or any indul-
gence, indeed, in alcoholic beverages;
and whatever differences of opinion
there may be as to the harmfulness
of temperate use of wine or beer,
there is none whatever as to the dam
gers OF intempcrance In that direc-
ton. But how many persons ever
stop to think of the fatal effects OF In
temperance in eating? asks Youths
Companion.
Even insurance companies, which
would refuse to insure nm habitual
drunkard, make no inquiries, as n rule,
concerning the applicants habits
about eating; yet as regards the
shortening of life, many psychologists
assert that oyereating Is more de-
structiye than overwhelming.
The organs of the body are able to
sssimilate only certain amount OF
nutriment, which is proportioned to a
nicely 10 the daily loss of substance
in the different tissues.
III more food is taken than can be
utilized, the liver and the kidneys arc
called upon to get rid of the extra
amount. This they are perfectly able
to do once in awhile, espe-
cially in the young, and even
Christmas dinner n month later,
can be disposed of with ease IL
the organs are not habitually over
worked. But IL they have to dispose
of a Thanksgiving dinner and two
other heavy meals every day of the
year, they will rebel and finally give
up exhausted, long before the proper
time.
No adult leading the average life
needs three full meals n day; indeed,
three "solidr meals a day are, ii is
safe to say, absolutely hurtful TO nine
tenths of us.
IT is of course impossible to lay
down any hard and fast rule, as TO the
taking of food, which will apply to
everybody under all circumstances,
but IL Is pretty safe to advise almost
everybody to eat less.
The Roman Catholic church pre-
scribes certain rules as TO fasting dur
ing Lent, which all its members are
commanded to observe. According to
these directions, only one full meal
can be eaten in the day-either at
noon or In the evening. In the morn
ing nothing is allowed but a piece OF
bread with coffee, tea or chocolates;
for dinner, there may be served full
meal; then, for luncheon or tea, what
is called collation., that is to say,
q light repast, is permissible.
The hygienic excellence of these
rules is beyond dispute, and the only
quarrel the physician has with them
is that they are binding only upon the
members Of that church, and upon
them for only six weeks out of the SO.

AARON BURR'S FATE.
Just ms Success Returned the Crush
ing Sorrows OF His Life
Came.

"Aaron Burr was 60 years old when
he resolved once more to battle with
fortune" writes William Perfume of
"The Mysteries of the Century"
"Going quietly into New York, he
opened an office for the practice of
law, and in a fortnight had earned
$4,000 in fees. But hardly had he
written to his daughter about his
luck when there came from South
Carolina the news that her beautiful
boy, who had been the idol of the
ambitious statesman, was dead. But
there was in reserve for Burr n still
heavier blow. Toward the close Of
the year 1912 Theodosia Allston made
preparations TO visit her father in
New York. Passage was engaged on
the schooner The Patriot for Theo-
dosia, her physician and her maid,
and the lovely woman was radiant
with the expectation of meeting her
father within the next five or six
days. The Patriot sailed from
Charleston out into the ocean in
Christmas week, and not vestige
OF her was ever again seen and IL is
surmised-but nothing is known as
to her fate--that she foundered off
the coast of Hatteras. Day after day.
and long after all hope had been
abandoned, there might he seen on
the Battery at New York the lonely
and unhappy father, peering far
down the bay as II he were scanning
the sea for sail. OF his agony Aaron
Burr gave the world but little view;
he had schooled himself in the habit
of never exhibiting his emotions; but
in one, of his letters he declared that
he felt ms IL he had been severed from
the human race."-Ladies' Home
