something was wrong. He had of late
always drank claret at dinner, and now
he drank it more freely than ever.
These fresh rotations loosened his
tongue in an unwonted way and set
him talking with hot vehemence of
Rothsay's insolent behavior.
He declared to Adela that his plans
were fully formed. Matthew and him
self were to take turns in keeping
guard over the vegetable garden all
night for the next three weeks. Either
of them would be armed with a pistol,
and the first head of cattle that showed
itself on the Amory ground should re-
ceive bullet in it's brain.
Adela silently shivered as she heard
of this resolve. In her weak and over
tionable for Frank to speak as he
did. Still, he was no doubt guiltless of
the least really unkind intention. And
yet apart from alarming Adela, his con-
duct wounded her to the core. After
dinner he lit cigar and left her, APP
parently quite oblivious that she had
seated herself on the little piazza, ac-
cording to custom, and was waiting for
his presence there at her side. Adela
strove to console herself with the
thought that after all it was not half SO
bad as it might be. True, Frank had
evidently drank during the day, and
those subsequent glasses of claret had
not by any means cleared his brain.
But now, thank heaven, he was here at
/ D. and not in New York This even.
ing she would try and persuade him to
go to bed early. Then tomorrow
morning he would be a changed man,
dreadfully sorry and contrite as he al.
ways was after similar follies.
So Adela sat there, building her
little castle of hope, when Frank sud.
denly appeared and demolished it as
though it had been child's house OF
cards.

/ little WHILE" he said.

'Oh, Frank! You'd better mott"
He looked at her somewhat annoyed

He walked away, putting his cigar
while Adela watched him with quick
throbbing heart. He had never LEFT
her like this before. Once or twice sht
was on the verge of flying after him t.
the gate, but something restrained her
1t was not pique, for of that she wa'
incapable-at least toward him.
That evening was exquisite, and sh'
sat on the piazza until the heavens haC
become whitley thronged with stars
BY degrees she grew more and NOR,
concerned about frank. Nine o'elocl
changed into ten, and yet he did not re
turn. Finally she decided to visit thu
hotel grounds herself: thew were onll
very short distance off. Night breeze
were whispering in the boughs of chest
nuts and locusts as Adela stole along
the lawn of the hotel. Presently sh,

truth had to be told you, and yet there
seemed such brutality in telling it!''
Frank had begun to realize just how
hideous that truth was. He soon
stopped down and clasped the child to
his heart, while tears of unspeakable
remorse chol1ed him.
Fate had been merciless. There con-
tinued no change for the better. Frank
perpetually saw in the blighted little
being Adela had borne stern and i'm
placable reproach. The child remained
an apparent semi-idiot and preserved
that same unique aspect of rebuke and
reminder. He made his father VOW
never to taste wine again, and keep his
oath. In this way Franks affection
was fraught with certain agency of
blessing. But Frank often told him
self that his punishment had been unde-
servedly bitter. And perhaps he was
right. Still, it would be hard to state
what worse clouds of calamity might
have drifted over the fortunes of Adela
and her husband if even this darksome
visitation had not occurred. Nature
sometimes proves Nemesis to us; but
by no means always In a certain way
Frank defeated her seeming sternness
of revenge; for the love which grew up
in his heart toward his little unfortu-
nate son took the form of gentle con-
ISOLATION. He became so passiOnately
attached to the child that it's infirmities
no longer shocked him. And yet, one
day, when he heard of a famous ply
stefan who had wrought wonderful
cures of nervous diseases, he eagerly
sought what helpful change science
might effect.
The physician at first seemed doubt
full of his own curative powers. But
later he consented to attempt course
of treatment which proved drastic and
yet was crowned, after three good years,
with perfect success.
In this was Franks bitter punish
ment turned out to be a more lenient
one than he had dreamed of believing
it. His boy is now a strong, healthy
and clear-minded lad, whose parents
never gaze upon him except with either
conscious or instructive gratitude. And
yet, Adela's thankfulness has always
been keener than Franks. This may
scarcely be wondered at. A mothers
love is always the harder, as it is al
ways the holier.

'How sadly you seem to speak of him,
Adela! l hope he's we'll You don't
mean that he's feeble or sickly, do
you?"
mo" And then Adela burst into a
passionate flood of tears, clasping her
husbands neck with both arms and be-
wildering Frank by what appeared to
him the most causeless emotion.
1t was a lovely spring day when
Frank came home to the cottage at
D. For some time he and Adela
talked together in the old familiar sit
ting-room downstairs. Then suddenly
Frank remembered the child.
"Adelar' he exclaimed, Sin nv hap
piness at being near you again I've for
gotten him."
Him. FRANKIE"
"Yes-little Frank-our son. Where
is he? Can't see him? l want to see
him so much"
Adela slowly rose from her husbands
side. Frank rose, too, and stared at
her wonderingly, because she had
grown of sudden so unaccountably
pale.
Nldl SdiCls Ji1C I1uloGs lS-lS Will llG-
tleFrank now" stammered Adela. 81
l will find her and-and tell her TOTO

AS his wife left the room, Frank
asked himself what her agitation could
possibly be caused by She did not re-
main away long. On her return he saw
that she was trembling and that her
eyes glittered with unshed tears
"Adela!' he exclaimed, and caught
her in his arms. you're suffering
my dear, and l think / can guess
why"
She let her head droop against his
breast. mo, Frank, no. I'm sure you
cannot guess"
''Our little one, Adela -"
She lifted her head and stared into his
eager eyes.
"Yes--well-wha of him?-what o.
little FRANKIE"
He is deformed-or blind, perhaps.
mot blind" she said, biting her lips
"Not blind--no."
"Deformed, them"
AS those words were spoken, a ster
sounded in one of the doorways. Franz

nurse, Margaret, with her charge. Abel;
at once dismissed her, taking littl,
Franks hand and leading him toward
his father.
"My God" faltered Frank, sinking
into a chair and gazing at the chill,
with Mortified eyes, "That-that stag
gering walk-Adela, what does i
mean?"
The child in his movements of body
limbs and head, suggested an almos
imbecile state of drunkenness. Hi
face was not misshapen, but it's expires
sion seemed completely bereft of intel

of vigil there on the hotel grounds ha
dealt to Adela so frightful a shock tina
it's results had manifested themselve
thus grotesquely and piteously whe
her child was born.
''Oh, | have suffered sol" she sobbeC

insufficiently, that would by no means
remove from me the right to make my
complaint"
Rothsay shrugged his solid shoulders
and scowled a little. "Oh, it wouldn't?"
he muttered. Making complaint and
having it listened to are not exactly the
same"
"They are the same in matter of
this sort among gentlemen-always,"
returned Frank, feeling his nerves tin
gle, as he spoke.
"Poh," said his host, with toss of his
unkempt head, sudden thrusting of
both hands into his pockets, its the
opinion of my man, Peter, that your
man, Matthew, weakens his repairs at
night just so that, sooner or later, I'll
have to put up new fence"
"Your man Peter wouldn't dare say
such a thing to mel" cried Frank.
Matthews as decent and honest a
fellow as ever breathed."
At this Rothsay showed a set of some
what dingy teeth in an almost sardonic
smile. "I've a good deal of confidence,
myself" he drawled tantalizingly, sin
the moral principle of Peter"
what a rowdy I've got to deal with, ~
silently reflected Frank. But aloud he
said, with terseness, and no little self
restraint: sit all comes to this, think,
Mr.. Rothsay; the fence is yours, and
your cattle break through it. In order
to prevent such proceedings either
proper repairs should be made or else a

these two things are you willing to do?''

Notice.

10 whom it may concern: At the
recent meeting of the Federal Labor
union, No. IT'S, of Kalispell, Montana,
1t was unanimously resolved that on
and after April 1, the wage for all
common labor shall be $3.50 per day,
and so cents per hour for all over
time and Sunday work; and nine
hours shall constitute a days work,
to be paid weekly. All those inter
ested in this matter will please gov
ern themselves accordingly.

union, No. IT'S, Kalispell, Montana.

glowered and had the mein of one about
to strike. Frank stood defiant, and the
words that his wife heard ring out from
his lips were packed with insult. The
next instant he appeared in the broad
lit doorway, followed by the man whom
he had just so holly addressed.
Rothsay caught Frank by the Shout
der. Adela gasped as she saw the two
men now front each other, And then
great horror took hold Of her, for she
perceived that her husbands assailant
bore pistol. Frank was reeling; he
envisaged Rothsay, and his hands were
clenched. His condition was pitiable;
he could hardly stand. He shook off
the hand of Rothsay, however, and
glared fierce challenge. 1t was evident
that his opponent had also been drink
/ ing.
"Oh, my Cod" thought Adela; twill
poor Frank be mad enough to face that
pistols"
| Then a report sounded. and Frank
fell. Adela gave wild shrek, rushing
j. forward. People hurried from the bar
room. They gathered about her while
ing head in her lap.
Frank fingered between life and
death for several weeks. They strove
to keep Adela from bis bedside, but
without effect. She insisted upon nurs-
! ing him. Rothsay was arrested, and
only permitted to leave prison when it
was decided that Frank would undOubt-
/ edly recover. He had been i'll a month
when Adela's child was born At first
his immediate recovery had been
thought certain; but afterward it was
found that Rothsay's malevolent bullet
had plowed deeper than the physicians
had supposed Frank became the vic
TIM of cerebral trouble that threat
ened his reason and Frustrated him for
many weary months Poor Adela was
too sick herself to know the exact time
at which his Wall-street friends bore
him from the cottage in D and
placed him under the care of specialists.
For many months Frank fingered at
the sanitarinm whittier he had been
brought. Adela suffered tortures of
suspense and yearning, but it was not
deemed admissible for her to meet him.
His malady was of that peculiar and
delicate kind which the least emotional
furry would have increased, and per-
haps with results promptly fatal. AT
last, however, his recovery became a
matter of complete certainty. The sen.
sitive organism of the brain had finally
yielded to medical and surgical treat
ment. Frank felt like one who was
awakened from long, drowsy dream
He had never been really insane; a kind
of stupor had yelled actualities for him
and through the disparting mist of this
prepossession his new interest and joy
in life burned out with ardent intensity
To see Adela again was delicious
experience. They met at the santa
rum, just before his sanctioned depar
ture. Adela could scarcely speak fol
her tears. But she found voice enough
to answer few of Franks questions.
