works very hard at home"
But the Manor is called after
them"
"And II ought to be theirs, only II
Isn't" She went on to give Beryl
the full and particular story OF Nina
Dynovor's infatuaton for Eustace
hndon, and the wrong II had led to,
Beryl only kept silent by an effort,
II was terrible to listen to the re-
proach of her own parents and say
nothing; but deep down In her own
heart the girl felt her gentle mother
had never done the wrong ascrlbed to
her No, the will which left the
Manor away from the DynevoTs had
been extorted from her weakness, not
made of her own free viii.
II hope l have not tired you out,
concluded Mrs, Grey, you are lopking
very pale"
u am generally pale, thanks"
The general stood on the steps OF
the Manor to welcome them He looked
a little astonlshed as Mrs. Grey In
troduced her companlon-the girl was
30 unlike what he had expected but
he soon led the way to the huge mar
quee which had been erected In the
grounds for the Ave stalls held by
the elite OF Easthill.
A smaller tent was devoted to flow
ers, yet another held refreshments, q
ladies' orchestra-fro Brighton, be
II lspered-discourse sweet music
In third, Mrs, Grey and Beryl has
tened to their places, while the gem
eral went back to await the advent OF
the great lady who was to formally de-
clare the fete open.
II looked TO Beryl like falryland
and when few minutes later things
were In full swing, and the people be-
gan to flock In. she proved herself
quite an expert saleswoman. Many OF
the visitors thought Mrs. Grey's as
sistant the prettiest girl present.
Harold" whispered Kitty Dynevor
to her brother, when he made his ap-
pearance "your fair traveller is here"
What do you mean?' He asked,
bewildered.
Don't you remember asking II there
were a school at Easthil-on-Sea, be-
cause a girl was making her way to It
at the station one day? Well, the girl
Is just here at Mrs. Grey's stall; but
she doesn't look like a school teacher,
does she?"
She did not, II flashed on Harold
that he had never seen sweeter face,
He thought the shadow on the grey
eyes was lighter, and he wondered II
she had ceased to worry over the hun
dred pounds reward offered for her re-
covery, She did not look In the least
like a fugitive or a runaway.
Mrs Grey's voice broke on his medl-
tations
Mr.. Dynevor, do take Miss Lendon
to the house to have some tea Mrs.
Craven has some in the dining room
specially for our benefit; the tent is
only for outsiders, you know, who pay
as they go, have been there long
ago; but couldn't find any one to
send with Miss Lendon, and, as she
has never been inside the Manor, she
does not like to go alone"
81 shall be only too pleased" said
Harold; and the two left the marquee
together,
1t was not far, only few hundred
yards as distance went; but 1t seemed
miles to Beryl because all the way she
was trying to decide a question. One
glance had told her that Mr., Dynevor
had been at Easthill station when she
arrived, therefore 1t must be he who
sent her the advertisement and words
of kindly warning, Should she allude
to 1t or not?
1t was only when she was in sight
Of the old Manor house that she made
up her mind.

Badness is not only unslghtly, but
the unprotected head is much more
susceptible to draughts, atmospheric
conditions, colds, neuralgia, headaches,

Cattle In Lee, Washington and Fay
ette counties, Texas, have been dying
of an unknown disease, which IL
thought to be tetanus or lockjaw.
Mr.. Marcus Daly's interests In the
trotter were ten times greater than in
runners, and he died the owner of by
far the greatest collection of trotting
brood mares ever gotten together.
According to an Oshkosh farmer very
few cattle will be wintered In that part
Of Wisconsin this year. It is all ow-
ing to the scarcity OF feed, which has
already commenced to be felt.
Notwithstanding its splendid equip
ment and fine shipping facilities, the
big packing plant at New Brighton,
Mimi, Is closed, except the feeding
pens used by cattle shippers.
Fire recently swept over the ranches
In Sherman and adjoining Texas coun-
ties. A score or more were burned
over and all feed consumed. The
burned area is estimated to be forty
miles long and six wide. Most OF the
cattle were saved, but will have to be
transferred to new feeding grounds.

OF value to the reputation OF the eggs

A writer says that hens do not lay
well on one kind of food, no matter
what their other conditions are, This
Is without doubt true, Most animals
like variety of food, and II Is econo-
my to give II to them The food of
fowls is naturally varied In their wild
state they have an almost endless va
rety OF animal and vegetable food,
Take insects for instance, There 10
doubtless as much difference In the
taste of different insects as there Is to
us In the taste of pork, beef, mutton
and fish, The insects themselves thus
give fowls great variety, Then there
is great difference In the taste of diff
ferent weed seeds, Just as there is a
difference TO us In the taste OF rice,
wheat and oats The fowls having all
kinds OF weed seeds upon which to
feed, are supplied with variety In
that line, Then come the grasses and
other green foods In endless variety,
all of which are eaten by birds, Thus
wo see that the fowl 10 very omnlver-

suits when we follow the hint that ma
ture has given, 1t Is therefore rea-
sonable to suppose that the hen will
do her best only when given a wide

Poultry Briefs,

Foul poultry yards are a menace to
the flock at all times, even in winter,
when we frequently have days so warm
that everything is melting. Such yards
should be spaded up whenever the
ground Is in shape to do the work
properly. 1t Is far better not to permit
the yards to get foul.
In using incubators 1t is always best
to have them placed where there will
be slight variation in the tempera-
ture that surrounds them; the less the
better For this reason the cellar has
been found to be a good place for the
location of the incubators. The eel
lar itself can be regulated as to its
temperature with comparative ease, es-
pecially If it be deep cellar that sell
dom or never freezes.
Where a man is carrying on the
poultry business on considerable
scale, 1t will be found advisable to

The horse business Is certainly on
the up grade. AS an indication of this
we may point to horse sale recently
held in New York at which 702 head
of horses were sold. The total sum

OF Interest to Horssmsn.

Queen Victoria has given an order
that none of her horses shall hereafter
be docked, and the Prince Of Wales
has taken the same stand. This Is said
to be the result OF agitatlons carried
ON In England by those that consider
docking cruel Now that royalty has
taken a firm stand in the matter, 1t is
expected that the custom will become
obsolete,
Some recent estimates on tho horse
supplies In the United States and some
European countries are as followH:
United States, 14,O0O,OO0; England, L.
$4,000; Scotland, $4,000; Wales.
$4,000, making about 100000 for
Great Britain. Ireland has about 4SO,-
900 horses. These statistics are said
to cover only the animals on the farms
and do not include the number In tho
cities.
Those that patronize stations should
see to 1t that the pedigrees are cor
rect, II they are paying for the serv-
Ice Of pedigreed stations. We notice
in recent exchange an expose of one
of the tricks that is said to be ex-
tenslvelY worked In the West, Tho
owner Of some unpedigreed stallion
gets out a pedigree with high-sounding
names and prints 1t In circular to
the farmers around him. They, not
being experts in such matters, are
readily taken In and patronize the stall
lion. The practice Is very injurious
to the orse-breeding interests, for It
fills the locality with almost worthless

The Australaslan, published at Mel
bourne, Australia, In a recent issue,
said During last week no less than
SSS tons OF butter were exported by the
agricultural department, representing
value OF about RSS,O00. The r. M, s.
ophir took away GAS tons and the s, s.
MoraVian 235 tons for London" This
shows how earnestly and persistently
the Australians are pushing for the
English butter market, We call atten-
tion also to the fact that this shipment
OF more than 100000 pounds, was by
the department OF agriculture of Au-
stralia, This Is not n new move but
Is q practice that has been followed for
some years, All butter for export is by
the makers shipped to the cold-storage
houses Of the department of agrlcul-
ture, There the butter Is graded and
sorted and Is held TIL time Of ship
ment under the best condition. The
conslgnments that are sent to England
reach that country with sort of gov
ernmental approval upon them, and
thus find ready acceptance by English
buyers. This feature governmental su-
pervison) is quite noticeable in the
buffers that are now contending for a
place In the British market.
False branding OF cheese and butter
is carried on to q very great extent In
this and other countries. Efforts have
been made to check this tendency and
laws have been passed in some of the
states against 1t. New York especially
has made determined effort to pre-
vent the imitation Of her cheese prod
ucts. Laws have been passed there
granting a number to each factory and
providing for the stenciling Of the
number Of the factory on each pack
age. Unhappily this protection ceases
at the state borders. In the South and
to some extent In the West the New
York brands have been initiated very
extensively. Retailers are said to keep
in reserve large number Of stencils,
and New York cheese" is created at
will, by the aid Of stencil. The rem
edy does not seem plain. National and
state laws are good as far as they go.
The difficulty is to enforce them, This
would require an army Of men acting

much as II conditions would not be

wonderful scenery has been always there. Man only brought something out of natures laboratory. A secret was revealed to the world. The same thing applies to man. The savage is Niagara enrapt up in It's silence, it's power all unused. The savage lets a great deal of good power go to waste in mere brute force. He fellS trees ard kills bears, but his intellectual and spiritual nature is sleeping. The civ ilized man, better,, the all-round Christian is Niagara still possessed of
 it's beauty, still holding it's power, but it's beauty giving pleasure to others and it's power serving the wants of man.

 Yes, there are good many things to see at Buffalo besides the big at traction. One side thing is Buffalo itself. 1t is a fair city, not, indeed, like Washington; aIcity of magnificent distances, but a city of parks and shaded streets and homes.l One of it's fair residents told me that she knew of no other city where we could live so we'll on a moderate income, and from the looks of most of the streets l should say that was true. There are some pretentiouS mansions, of course, but the most of the pretty homes be- long to the great middle class, the noble Well-tO-dO. So many of the streets are so beautifully shaded that it seems no great change to you when you find yourself at last within the detached, have just enough ground space about them to afford breathing space, so that every man can imagine he is sitting under his own vine and fig tree. Buffalo, like every great city, has it's Slums, where the other half lives. l remember once to have read about mission work carried on in them, but the visitor who spends the two or three days of busy sight seeing in Buff falo, does not see these. They are hidden away in some lonely quarter out of sight. If we could only thus hide our imperfectiOnS, our dark spots, and let our friends see us only on the bright side. A pleasant trip, too, if you are not on that five days excur- sion from New York, and are seeing if the minister told the truth when he said the trip could be brought within the compass of twenty-five dollars, is across Lake Ontario to Toronto. You know you are out of the United States at once when you set foot in Canada. People do no get in a hurry over there. I remember market day in Toronto, how the queer looking carts from the country loaded with all sorts of pro- duce, lined up around the square. utes' bargaining, went home triumph antly with half sheep thrown over her shoulder.

TROLLEY CAR CONDUCTOR DIES FROM

 One of the conductors on the trolley road, s. w. Stillwell, while collecting fare last Sunday afternoon on an open car, was struck by an iron trolley pole and badly injured. He was taken over to Derby, and died shortly afterward, the skull having been crushed by the blow. The running board was filled with passengers, and it is supposed than in trying to get around them he was out so far that he was hit by the pole, which is only about fouFfeet from the rail. Of course on the other side of the car there was plenty of room and no danger in this respect.

4 BAR AFFRAf..

A bad affray took place about midnight. It arose out of the Farrel Foundry strike in Ansonia. One of the workmen was approaching the factory in that place, when several of the strikers met him and persuaded him to return to Bridgeport, whence he came. Arriving in Derby they were too late for the trolley, and two of them accompanied him down Howe in a lonely place they were attacked by the man, who slashed them around their faces with a razor. Doctors were called, and they found several bad cuts, and after dressing the wounds the men were sent to AnsOnia. The one who did the cutting gave his name as Sulli- van. He was soon afterWard arrested by an officer and placed in the lookup. On Monday he was arraigned before the court, but the two men whom he assaulted were so badly injured they could not appear, and Sullivan was let out on bonds of 1000.
