years, and one which has created a s7nSa-
lion in society for weeks past was con-
Guided to-day when Presiding Justice Sir
Francis June ordered Lady Granville TO de-
liver up the child to Eric Gordon. who is
held by the court to be the father of the
child
The history of this case ia a remarkable
one Eric Gordon obtained a divorce from
his wife on account OF her misconduct with
his cousin. Lord Granville Gordon, whom
she afterwards married.
Lard Granville Gordon, in her effort TO
secure possession of the child. brought the
present suit TO have a previous order giving
her to die father annuled.
she swore that Lord Granville Gordon
was really the father Uf the child, and that
she had been intimate with him while she
was Eric CiOrdon'S wife. She also said that
Eric Gordon was cognzdnt of this state OF
affairs
BY making these statements in an effort
TO hold the child. Lady Granville Gordon
lost all standing in society and her right

freedom as himself.

THE TIME TO MAKE LOVE.

The time to make love to woman,
If you want her to listen, my lad.
Is when she's little bit weary,
Aud just little bit sad.
Don't try when she's flushed with sue
cesses,
And eager for action and strife,
When she stands with her hand on the
throttle.
OF the painting engine of life.
But wait till she's tasted of failure
At the going down of the sun.
When she finds that universe-changine ne
Is not so easily done;
When she faces her own mutations,
And looks at them square in the eyes
And finds she is only woman
With powers of moderate size.
Alone In the twilight then seek her,
And tell her with tenderest smile,
That worrying over vexed questions
Is far from being worth while.
Such things without doubts are mosi
proper
For spiDsters whose charms are bu,
few,
But what she, divinely, was made for
Was just to be loved by you.
She will change career for caresses,
Nor find the alternative bad,
If you WOO her when she Is weary
And itrot littia hsk 81
