Aylmer. steadily.
He looked so handsome and so de-
seermined that possibly in another mo-

tho mischief would have been out, but
fortunately at that moment Esther
Brand came in.
ooh! is that you, Lord Aylmer?" she
Said pleasantly.
Lord Aylmer dropped Dorothy's
hands with an inward curse; but he
turned to greet Miss Brand with his
solandest smile and most amicable
voice. So the opportunity was lost for
that day.

along Kensington Gore, young man
who was walking with lady and a
little girl recognized Lord Aylmer, and
Afted his hat. Lord Aylmer looked
annoyed, but he had no other choice
than to raise his hat in return.
''Who is that?" asked Esther.
"Oh, some young man or other-I
really cannot tell you," he answered.
And Dorothy sat back in the carriage
not feeling sorry that the young man

horticultural Notes.

The Entertaining property Of seeds
is influenced to a very great extent
by the degrees of temperature and
moisture to which they are exposed.
Stored seeds should be guarded against
both heat and moisture previous to the
time of planting them; and the spring
time is the season when they are most
likely to experience conditions that
excite termination. The seed that has
started to terminate and has been
checked is probably Of less value than
the seed whose termination has been
held back till it is put into. the warm,
moist ground. 5si. ;sa RI
Strong seeds only should be planted
If large crops are to be expected, and
the vitality Of the seeds may be as
certained by testing them by any Of
the ordinary methods. There are vari-
| GUS methods for doing this. Some use
an incubator, as in that way the tenn
liperaLure can, be kept under perfect
control. The mere sprouting OF seeds
does not indicate their ability to grow,
as some seeds that sprout are 50 weak
that they are about wort less. Then,
lstoo, some seeds that will sprout in a
warm room will not do well out Of
doors. For this reason II lis desirable
to sprout seeds under varying condi-
tons. 5s,s rs i 81 ss4 IS 81 Be

OPEN
NEW HALL
A Brilliant Party
Gathers at House
Warming.

With one OF the prettiest of dancing
receptions the Elks opened their new
hall and club rooms at Miller and Bere-
tania streets last evening The occasion
was one entirely for antler wearers and
the ladies. as the cozy rooms are only
large enough to accommodate a small
gathering.
The company which numbered about
100 persons was gay one and after the
completion of a programme of sfngs
and specialties there was dancing until
the day passed into new division of
time. unheeded by the merry makers.
There was a quintette club which added
its strains to those of the piano. and
amid forest of palm leaves and be-
meath flashing lights there was forget
fuIness of all but the hours pleasures.
The programme was opened by
selection by the Elks orchestra. Secre-
tary Couzens then introduced Exalted
Ruler c. B. Cooper, who in felicitous
phrases welcomed the members of the
order TO the new hall and club. 1t was
a pleasure, he said, to greet his fellow
members of the order in the home
which they had built to shelter them
selves, fitted for their own uses and
which would ever be a rallying place for
the Elks of the city and all visiting
brothers. He congratulated the mem
bers-praised the officials who had made
possible the contamination of the hopes
of all DR.. Cooper was frequently inter
rupted by applause and was given
most hearty and enthusiastic reception.
The Elks quartette sang the Bridge"
with Down, Down, Down." as an en-
core, after which Mrs. AnniS Montague
Turner sang Rosary" which was so
well received that she responded with
second number. a cello solo by
Brother Tobriner, accompanied on the
piano by Mrs. Luning had to be re-
peated. Mrs. DR.. Mcdonald sang with
effect StrelesIi's Day Dream the
piano accompaniment being by Mrs. DR.
Cooper and the violin obligato by Prof
Aimee and again the audience would
not be content until given a second
selection. Guy Livingstone sang The
Turnkey and THE Deep
a most pleasant vary to the musical
numbers was a story told by Mr.. Mac
Vicar of the Neill company in in
imitable style. Mr.. Couzens recited
Casey at the Bat" and there was
music by Prof. Berger and others until
it was time for refreshments, accom-
panied by the now famous Elks Punch,
collation. with ices being served by
Hart.
The II o'clock toast ITO our absent
brothers" was, made most impressive
by the mulling of the punch in a dark
room and every one standing in honor
of the missing ones.

WILL MOVE THE HOUSE.
MyrtIes Decide to Send Their Pres-
emit CHARTERS Travelling.

While the Healanis were holding their
annual meeting last night and listening
TO reports of what had been done, their
cousins, the Myrtles, across the plank
walk. were earnestly discussing plans for
the future About thirty members were
present and President Robertson occu-
pied the rocker.
Plans and specifications for the propos-
ed new club house We're exhibited, and
after considerable discussion as to the
cost, it was decided not to build new
headquarters, but to move the old boat
house to the new site. The building Will
be considerably altered and improved,
and Il road built from the sea-wall TO the
boat house, which will be situated 40 feet
from the sea-wall and about $50 feet
makai of the Quarantine wharf.
The club authorized the board of di-
rectors to proceed Immediately with the
work of moving the boat-house. and to
make the necessary changes and i'm
-provements. Operations will commence
in a day or so. Cotton Bros. have been
engaged 10 drive the piles for the founda-
ton, and the work of moving the boat
house viii probably be undertaken by
them.
1t is estimated that in fifteen days the
site now occupied by the historic Myrtle
club headquarters Will be vacant The
first of the year will probably see the
1iAIUtS comfortably euSCOnced IN their
new home. When all is ready, a house
warming Will take place which it is said
Will eclipse all previous records for that
class of entertainments
The idea of the Improvements in the
old quarters Will be to provide more
space. New quarters for the janitor will
also be provided. The reason that the
proposition to erect entirely new
building was turned down is the tremen-
dous expense involved. The thing could
not be done under $4,000, including the
road from the sea-wall.
The club has succeeded in collecting
over $4,000 for the boat-house fund. There
is yet more to come in which Will raise
the amount to $500. All this has been
subscribed by the members of the club,
and no outside help has been solicited
At the meeting last night the following
committee was appointed:
W. b. Mclean, W. II. Soper, c. Fra
zier, a. F. Judd, and E. Ross.
1t is probable that should more money
be needed an entertainment will be held
for the purpose of further swelling the
clubs treasury.
