heard your conversation in the vene-
tian chamber. Had you gone away
with her, it is terrible to think of
the position in which you might have
been placed"
As listened to his words, my blood
froze in my veins.
"How can / know whether you
are telling me the truth?" I asked,
still suspicious of the stranger.
"You cannot TELL" he replied, "un-
til you are given proofs. We are go
ing to drive to the police-station,
where you will find the real Mrs.
Shepperton, who has been recalled to
intrigue"
I began to tremble violently, but
still kept fast hold on the check, de-
termined to give it to no one but the
real Mrs. Shepperton herself.
81 don't wonder you believed In
that evil woman" continued the
stranger. "She has completely de-
ceived her confding old mistress.
Presently when we bring them face
to face with each other on the rail-
way station, there will be little or
no doubt in Mrs. Shepperton's mind"
I could hardly bear the suspense
till the carriage drew up in front of
the police station, and I followed
the tall man through the gateway.
In little room I espied a palaL
trembling figure. An old lady in
costly array, with exquisite furs and
and dainty laces, eyed me curiously
as I entered. For moment stared
at her open-mouthed- white side
curls, the arched eyebrows, were all
so like the Mrs. Shepperton with
whom I had conversed not an hour
ago.
Until I had arrived, she had still
hoped there might be some mistake;
but my amazement at seeing her
proved the truth of the detectives
story.
"Why do you look at me so strange
ly?" she asked. Perhaps you have
seen somebody like me?"
She placed her shaking hand on
my arm, and I noticed tear rolling
down her withered cheek. 1 spread
out the check on the table before
her, and she peered at it curiously
through her glasses. In as few
words as possible I explained what
had occurred.
''Then it is true?" she gasped, in
a broken voice. "And I would have
trusted her with my life!"
She staggered to the door.
"We have to go to the railroad
station" she said. cit will be an aw-
full moment indeed"
I turned to the inspector pleading
ly.
"May Mrs. Shepperton not return
to Stanley House without seeing that
wicked woman again?" I begged.
Surely you and your men can ar
rest this imposter without giving
this poor lady the pain of an en-
counter?'
She threw me a grateful glance as
I made the suggestion.
"Of course, if Mrs. Shepperton pre-
fers it," said the inspector, some
what aggrieved that she should wish
to forgo the excitement of catching
the thief red-handed.
ST am very grateful to you," said
the tremulous old voice, as, Selling
our reprieve, we were drawn slowly
back up the long, steep hill. 81 feel
you have had a great disappoint-
ment; but, remember, at the same
time you have been mercifully de-
livered from very grave things"
I bowed my head at the solemn
words. My heart was too full at
that moment to speak.
A restful sensation come over me
as we turned in at the old stone
gateway. 1t was to be duty, not
pleasure, and 1 began to think per-
haps duty was the better after ALL

The sneciaI Crop Idea.

The need of adapting special crops
to special localities and of determin-
ing the fitness of the soil for their
successful culture is becoming daily
more and more evident. For instance,
the soil and climatic conditions in the
vicinity of Dorr, Allegan county, in
southwestern Michigan, are such that
400 acres of land are devoted to the
raising of cucumbers for picking pur-
poses. Fifty cents bushel is the pre-
vailing price this season. The stor-
age rooms are of sufficient capacity
to store $4,000 bushels.

The Wrong Woman.
AM quite young girl, and lady.
By Winifred Graham.

7 AM quite young girl, and lady
/ librarian by profession.
While travelling to various coun-
try houses, 1 have met with many
strange adventures, though indexing
musty old libraries sounds dry as
dust to the casual ear.
Being one of large family, I
revel in the relaxation of work, by
which I escape ''the trivial round, the
common task" though often 1 pine
for riches, ease, and chiffon.
One bright sunny morning I met
an old friend of my father's-Mr.
Jessop-who often recommends me
to book-collecting friends.
''My DEAR" he said, give little job
for you, if you like to take it on"
My eyes glistened, for at the mo-
ment 1 was "out of work.
II have mentioned you to delight
full old lady," he continued, Giving
in beautiful country house. She
is anxious to have her splendid Ii
brary catalogued by q professional.
/ warn you she is eccentric, but in a
very nice way-so good and kind to
everybody, and especially fond of
girls
I thanked him heartily, declaring I
loved eccentric people.
"Then l will ask her to write to
you," he said.
Sure enough, few days later re-
ceived a request to visit Stanley

it sense of disappointment, for Mrs.
Shepperton informed me she was GO
ing for a short tour abroad, SO I
could not see her.
"I have very nice housekeeper,"
she wrote, "who will look after your
comfort. 1 hope you will make your
self quite at home. The carriage
shall meet you at the station"
On my arrival 1 was greeted with
a pleasurable surprise. A lady in
purple velvet, with a beautiful lace
mantilla swathing her white hair,
came across the hall to greet me.
She had quaint side curls, and be-
nign expression. One or two ex-
quisite jewels glittered in her laces.
''My DEAR" she said, drawing me
to the fire, 81 never expected to have
the pleasure of seeing you, but /
have had great trouble with my SER
wants the last day or two. My house
keeper, upon whom 1 absolutely rely,
has been called away to the bedside
of dying friend; and, owing to an
unfortunate disagreement amongst
the domestics, find myself very
shorthanded. 1 have therefore put
off my visit until tomorrow, wher
my housekeeper returns. I felt il

tried to be very sympathetic, fol
the old lady attracted me.
She looked at me very admiringly
now and again dropping a compli

my cheeks.

Never in the history of medicine has
the demand for one particular remedy
for female diseases equalled that at

during the lifetime of this wonderful
medicine has the demand for it been
so great as it is to-day.

you are quite right not to give it up
suppose you are unaware that you
are being made the victim of a very
cruel trick? I saw you arrive yes
terday, and judged by your looks you
were not an accomplice, though the
accomplices are many of the Mrs
Shepperton, you know. One has
played her false, and a very large
scheme is about to end in failure.
''The old lady who received you sc
affectionately last evening, and
tempted you to accept her invitation
of foreign travel, was, strange to re
late, the housekeeper, who should
have received you according to Mrs
Shepperton's orders. This intriguing
woman has effected a most startling
disguise, not only annexing her mis-
tress' clothes, but making her ap
pearance absolutely similar. Having
cleared the house of every honest
servant, she had arranged to leave
England under Mrs. Shepperton's
name, taking with her large guam
tity of jewelry and plate of immense
value.

ROANOKE. VA. October l.-(speciai)-
| In great game played before an enthu-
sastic crowd the University of North
Carolina football eleven this afternoon
defeated the eleven o: the Virginia Mill
tary Institute by q score Of IL to TO- after
brilliantly played, stubbornly- fought
struggle.
Twenty five minute halves were played.
/ virgtnia's team was slightly the heavier.
but the Carolinians made UP in agGres-
sivcncss and team play any difference In
weight the two elevens being very evenly
matched. In the first half Virginia Mill
tary Institute made two touch6ownS to
one by their opponents. the score at the
call of time being 10 TO 6 in the Institute
favor. In the second half. however. the
Carolinians. by a succession Of mass
plays and brilliant runs. worked the bali
down the field for touchdown and
kicked the goal. making the score II to
10 in North Carolina's favor. Later the
Carolinians got in striking distance OF the
Virginia Military Institutes goal ana
landed a field goal, making their total
score II to the Cadets 10. 1t was the IN
stitute's ball on their own 45-yard line
when time was called and the struggle
ended.
During the first half the Institute had
the ball the greater part OF the tme.
Soon after the kickoff North Carolina
after having run back the punt very pref
tily. advanced the ball steadily, and Il
nally carried ii over for touchdown
Jones kicked the goal.
The Institute then kicked off. sending
the ball to Cardinals 20-yard line. where
it was caught and run back twenty yards
Carolina soon afterwards lost the ball and
the Cadets rushed il back down the held,
finally making a tnirty-five YARD rrn TOR
a touchdown. The try for goal failed.
When Carolina kicked off. the Institute
by pretty interference and lodging ran
the ball back forty yards. After that II
was steadily and rapidly advanced in a
series of pretty ruslles and runs and
scored their second touchdown. Again the
try for goal failed.
