I Connecticut farmers in the western
part of the state, who have spent
money in silo-building only to find that
certain buyers of milk object to en-
silage-made milk, are wondering if
silo-building was money well invested.
says the Connecticut Farmer. 1t
must be apparent on consideration that
the silo is a benefit rather than other
WISE and if there is objection on the
part of any of the companies, who
handle milk in the cities, it has been
claimed to be more for the sake of ad.

species of what may be termed bluff. $

why do you not tell him so?" said
/ Una. with a smile.
Mrs. Davenant shook her head nerv.
ously.
THAT would do no good, my DEAR"
she said. Il sometimes think he will
never marry"
And she glanced at Una with some
embarrassment. A dim suspicion had
had been free, Stephen might have
stood in Jacks place. She could not
help noticing Stephens close attend
ance on Una-a mothers eyes are
sharp to note such things.
If the old squire could have seen the
diningroom and the elaborate menu
that evening, he would have stared
and sworn. Stephen had engaged a
French cook; the appointments were
as perfect as they could be; the ser.
wants admirably trained and as to the
wines the Hurst cellar stood second to
none in the country.
1t almost seemed as If he were spar.
ing no pains to impress on Una all
that the wife of Stephen Davenant
would possess. And Una, more than
half the dinnertime, was thinking of
Jack, and fondly picturing the little
house they had so often talked of set
ting up when the commissionership
came home. Just at the same time,
Jack was leaning over Lady Bells
chair in the theater.
Stephen was in his best mood, and
exerted himself to the uttermost. He
described the neighborhood, planned
excursions and expeditions; told in
anecdotes of the village
folk, and played the host to perfec-
ton.
In thousand ways he showed his
anxiety for Una's comfort; and after
dinner he had the place lit up, and
went over it, asking her opinion on this
point and the other, and humbly beg
gng her to suggest alterations. SO
much so that Una began to grow shy
and reserved, and shrank closer to
Mrs, DaVenant; and Stephen, quick to
see when he was going too fast, left
them ana went to the library to write
letters.
Now, strange to say, Of all the rooms
in the house, this one room remained
unaltered He had not allowed it to
be touched indeed it was kept closely
locked, and the key never left him
night and day. Just as it had been on

1t eXCrted strange, weird influence

making no attempt to write letters.
