was doing; he did his best to help her.
A wonderful change was coming over
the earl. Not that he was beginning
even in the least to love his wife-that
d had not yet occurred to him; but
he was beginning to treat her with
great respect, to recognize the fact that
she was a ~high-souled woman.
But, although the idea Of love had
not occurred to him, their relations to-
ward each other were fast changing.
The beautiful, gifted wife was fast TAX
ing her place in every respect and In
every way, except in her husbands
heart.
Lady Caraven lost no time when her
husband had once given her permits
sion to act. He affected to laugh and
feel amused at her zeal and her en-
thusiasm-in reality it shamed him.
He asked her what her first reform was
to be; and she told him all the labor
ers' cottages were to be pulled down,
and fresh houses built for them
houses where the first laws Of health
could be regarded. She wanted good
fresh air, dry walls, pure water, plenty
OF room. She did not rest until the
workmen were busy in removing what
she called the "fever-acres."
She was to have her own way, yet
she showed the sweetest submission to
her husband. When the architect and
builder waited upon her with plans for
the model cottages, she took them at
once to him. He looked up laughing
ly.
You pay me a compliment, Hill
dred," he said, "but it is your affair
entirely, not NINE"
Il shall find no pleasure in it unless
I have your approval" she replied. Il
am your head steward, not your guide
Look over these with me-"
They discussed them in full detail,
and that conversation had something
SO interesting, so piquant in it, that the
earl was deeply interested.
Thank you," said Mildred, looking
up with a charming smile-"I am
grateful to you for relieving me in my
perplexity."
1.-THE pleasure has been all on my
SIDE" he answered; and that was tho
most gallant speech, that the earl had
yet made to his wife.
So time passed on, and the beautiful
summer days were filed with schemes
and plans for the benefit of others.
1t seemed to the earl that he was
really waking up from a long sleep.
The world was wearing a different as
pect for him. He had never even given
a thought to politics. With the arbi-
trary insolence of youth he had pro-
nounced them nonsense-and that was
one of the things that Sir Raoul most
deplored. Hildred, too, al sorry for
it. She had been SO successful in other
matters that she ventured at last upon
this. 1t was by a series Of well-direct-
ed questions that she first aroused his
attention. In trying to answer them
he grew interested himself. IF l could
vote" Hildred had a fashion of saying,
81 should try to urge that measure"
At last Lord Caraven awoke to tho
consciousness that in the government
of Britain's mighty empire he, too,
ought to have voice.

WOMEN As HORSE JOCKEYS.

Not 3 Few of Our English Cousins Have
Won Trophies on the Turf.
In England more than on this side
of the Atlantic women are taking a
lively interest in horse-racing. But
four or five generations ago it was far
o common than it is to-day to see
members of the fair sex taking a con-
spicuous part in the races. One hum
dred and seventy-five years ago wo-
men were among the riders at race
meetings. In an English paper of Aug.
%, 1925, appears the following adver-
tisement: ITO be run for. The usual
four-mile course on Rippon common,
in the county of York. On Tuesday,
Sept. Is, the Lady's plate Of ELS value
by any horse. Women to be the riders:
each to pay a guinea entrance, three
heats, and thrice about the common
for heat" But even this is still some
distance behind the newness of the
early Georgian ladies, who did not con.
fine their physical exercises to horse
racing. In 1888 four women ran a race
in Pail Mall at 3 o'clock in the after.
noon before a large and fashionable
audience. Public opinion, however.
was not really in favor Of women's
sports, and owing to the protest made
at the time such races were forbidden
in future. Probably the recent admis.
sion OF women into the acting profess
sion had suggested this later venture
into other manly fields Of action. For
until Charles lis time all the women's
parts had been played by boys, which
was also the case on the Japanese stage
until the tradition was broken "a

SUSTAINING POPULATION.

Belgium had in 1897 a population OF
579 per square mile, with 1857 miles
Of railway, 5,743 miles of public roads.
and 1870 miles of navigable waters
and canals. The area Is less than that
of Maryland, but the population sus-
tanned is six times as great. Neither
lands in 1898 had a population OF 4O1
per square mile, with about 1000
miles of railway, 5000 miles OF navi-
gable water, exclusive of canals, and
1907 miles of canals, in an area
equal to that Of Massachusetts and
Connecticut combined, but a popula-
ton so per cent greater than that OF
those densely populated states. Eng
land and Wales had in 1891 a popula-
ton of 498 per square mile, with 49,
900 miles of railway, 2,2O8 miles OF
canals, and an admirable highway
systematic area being about equal to
that of the state Of Georgia, and the
present population twelve times as
great. Porto Rico, which Is looked
upon as having an extremely n
population, has only about 225 inhabi-
tants per square mile, with very little
development in railways and roads,
and General Roy Stone, who has spent
much time in that island since Ameri-
can occupation, stated, in a recent ad-
dress before the American Academy
Of Political and Social Science, that In
his opinion the island, which now sus-
tains less than 1000, 900 Inhabitants,
can well support fully 5000, 900 people,
since not NOR than one-fourth Of the
soil is now under cultivation. BY
properly developing its producing pow
ers and exchanging these products for
foodstuffs from other parts of the
world, it would probably be able to
sustain more than five times it's pres
ent population or more than 1000 per
square mile. Barbados, one of the
British West Indies, has a population
Of more than LOO per square mile,
yet it is locked on as a prosperous
community. The two most prosperous
countries in the world, aside from the
United States, are England and Ger
many; yet they now sustain, on a COM
bined area less than that of Texas, a
population greater than that Of the
entire United States, and twenty-five
times as great as that which Texas
now supports. With a great railway
system stretching from Patagonia to
Alaska, and connecting across Behring
strait, with an Asiatic railway system;
with wireless ~telegraphy, enabling in
staneous communication from city to
city, and telephone so developed that
man may speak from continent to
continent, with the art of ocean navi-
CATION much more highly developed,
and perhaps the navigation of the air
as completely mastered as that of the
ocean is today. the United States with
its power to interchange it's products,
will be in touch with those Of other
lands, and its power to sustain a popu-
lation of 500, 900, 0O0-yes, ever a bill
%lion--Will be greater than that by
which the prosperous nations of Eu-
rope sustain their present population.
