CHAPTER VII

When Jephthah, at her bidding stood
up, that Namarah might lift from him
the weight Of his heavy armor, he
turned and looked upon Adina, and a
great cry broke from him, and he sank
backward into his seat and covered
his face with his hands. But Namarah
bent above him and drew away his
hands. kneeling on her knees before
him.. and holding them in both her
own.
NAY. grieve thee not, my father" !"
she said. tenderly. Let 1t be done
to me according as thou has vowed"
Thy life is mine. and vowed to mel"
burst forth Adina, hotly. taking step
toward her, as II he would wrest her
from her father But the compelling
eyes Of the maiden Namarah arrested
him, and he turned, and began to pace
the apartment with the angry strides
Of Gagged beast
"Ah, woe, my daughter" Jephthah
spake, that thy father, who hath SO
loved thee. should bring thee now such
hurt. 1t had pleased me well that thou
shouldest wed Adina. 1t was but the
morning Of this day on which
dreamed these dreams, and to what are
they come? Alas, my daughter, why
camest thou forth to meet me, so con-
trary to thy wont and usage? Thou
vast ever affrighted before the soldiery
and held backward when they came
about the door"

marah and the young man Adina."
And when they had so done. behold
Jephthah rent his clothes, and said:
Alas! my daughter; thou hast
brought me very low; and thou art
one of them that trouble me; for I
have opened my mouth unto the Lord,
and cannot go back."
And Namarah said unto him:
MY father. II thou hast opened thy
mouth unto the Lord, do to me accord
ing to that which hath proceeded out
of thy mouth; forasmuch as the Lord
hath taken vengeance for thee Of thine
enemies. even the children of Ammon."
I So spake she. and her voice was firm
and clear. but her face went deadly
pale. even as the face OF the young
man Adina put on ghastly pallor:
and as he stood before her in his shin
ing armor great trembling seized
him, 30 that his armor shook and
sounded. And as she looked on him
and saw his grief, behold her heart bled
for him, and for all the visions Of her
happy love; and she turned to him
n.
And Adina clasped her to him, careful
not to hurt her tender body against his
mail-clad breast. and 1t seemed unto
them both that the barrier that had
come SO suddenly between their two
souls was even as this barrier between
their bodies-hard and cruel and i'm
passable. But there was no barrier be-
hn{r
touched and trembled on each other.
they knew not whether that moments
ecstasy was of pain or joy.
And Jephthah sat and gazed on them,
and as he looked he was no longer the
mighty man Of valor. but a creature
sore stricken, SO that his hands shook
for very weakness. and feeble and i'm
potent tears fell down upon his beard
and trickled to his armor, while his
face was changed and piteous to be-
hold, and he looked, all at once, an
aged man.
Turning her eyes toward him, and
seeing him in such unhappy case, Ma
marah slipped from her lovers arms,
and went and knelt beside her father.
circling his neck with her tender arms,
and calling him all manner of caress-
ing names, while she kissed him with
deep lovingness on his forehead, his
cheeks and his lips. Then did she
loosen his heavy armor. and remove
each piece in turn, beseeching him to
take comfort, and avowing toward him
an affection more fervent and dutiful
than ever she had shown him in the
past. But Adina spake no word either
with or against her. but stood where
she had left him. with his right hand
holding the elbow OF his left arm,
which was raised toward his face, his
chin sunk In his palm. He was still
in complete armor. only he had re-
moved his helmet. SO that his sunny
curls were uncovered. Right goodly to
look upon he was, In the majesty of
his stalwart youth, but his ruddy skin
was ashen white. and in the great blue
eyes, which had SO lately glowed with
SO luminous love-light, there was
now the shadow of great despair. And
ever his eyes were fixed upon the
maiden, following each movement that
she made, and the hunger OF his soul
was in them.

and 800 hogs daily. By the first of De-
cember every department will be in
working order and the first shipment
of hogs Will be received from Kansas
City about the last of Octobe:.
When asked if any steps would be
taken by the company toward raising
hogs in this country, Mr.. Morris said:
The country is too dry AMI raising
hogs here would be too expensive.
There will be no effort made upon our
part to encourage the raising Of hogs.
We Will, however, be in the market
buying cattle and sheep, both fat and
lean, from the first day of December"
Cattle will be fed all the year round
The company will not only supply

Everyday Love.

A group of little girls We're telling
OF the love each felt for her mother.
and as the testimony went on the
strength of the statements grew, each
child feeling obliged to surpass her
mates. Finally one said positively, Il
love my mother so much l would die
for her. The impressiveness of this
declaration subdued the circle. The
climax had been reached. a wholesome
turn was given to the situation by the
quiet observation of a lady sitting
near, 1t seems very strange to me
that a little girl who loves her mother
enough to die for her doesn't love her
enough to wash the dishes for her."-

The Timid Giraffe.

giraffe is very timid on hearing
slight sounds, but is Indifferent to loud
ones. A writer in The Leisure Hour
says:
Noisy sounds like q man walking by
with hobnail boots it does not notice,
but lady coming in with hardly more
sound than the rustling of her dress
makes it start with pricked ears and
eyes diStended.
We remember we'll after a terrible
explosion of gunpowder on a barge on
the canal asking the keeper of the gil
raffes that day how they had taken it.
and he said he was surprised how very
little notice they took They jumped
to their feet. but almost at once lay
down again when they found nothing
happened.
But he added, eff were at night
time to creep along that gallery in nv
socks they would be so scared that 1
believe they would dash themselves to
bits"
They fear the lurking foe, and a big
Dang scares them less than a faint, rus
Ting sound. They are in that respect
very deerlike.

Foraker's speech in which he argued
that the United States had Il perfect
right, under the constitution, to hold
and govern distant territories as
colonies or dependencies or provln
ces, without admitting their people
to the liberties and privileges Of
that constitution.

Daniel Webster knew as much about
the constitution as Mr. Foraker,
He was called the expounder ofthe
constitution, wasn't he?
Now, If Mr.. Foraker will turn tc
the great Daniels speech in the
