The thrust was awkward.

she sighed.

Again he hesitated. "Unless-" He
broke off again.
Christine had some difficulty in keep
ing her nerves under control. When he
spoke again it was abruptly. as though
with wrench:
Il say. do you ever see Caylesham
now?"
A very slight. almost ifnperceptible,
start ran over her.
Lord Caylesham? Oh, I meet him
about sometimes. He's at the Ray

places, of course"

Very seldom; to a party now and

ent embarrassment, but her eyes were
very sharply on the watch; she was on
guard against the next blow.
He was a good chap, and very fond
of us. Lord, we had some fine old
times with Cayleshami", He rose now
and stood with his back to the fire.

said nothing.

"Grantley always likes to do the

before she put her question. And

He was ashamed, 1t was easy to see
that-ashamed to show her how deep
he was in the bog, how reckless he had
been. He finished his tea, and pottered
about, cutting and lighting a cigar,

Christine.

there's nothing more we can do on the

He sat down opposite to her, and
stared gloomily at the fire. Christine
rather wondered that he did not turn
to abuse of himself for having got into
the bog, but she supposed that the
Speculative temper, which acknowl-
edges only bad luck and never bad
judgment, saved him from that. He
looked at her covertly once or twice;
she saw, but pretended not to, and
waited to hear what was in his mind:

step to avoid what she feared. Hating
1t, she would sit shivering by the fire,
and wait for 1t all the same. She
knew this OF herself, and therefore
was even more sorry for John than on
her own account. This state of mind
made the amiability easier. 1t also
awoke her conscience from a long sleep
with regard to the way in which she
had treated John in the past. Against
this, however, she struggled not only
fiercely, but with conviction Of JUS
tice. Here conscience was OVERRIDING
its part, and passing from scrupulous-
ness to morbidity. The thing in ques-
ton, the thing conscience was worrying
about, belonged to the far past; 1t had
been finished off and written OFF, en-
1oyed and deplored, brooded over and
violently banished from thought. ever
so long ago. Hardly anybody knew
about it; 1t was utterly over. None the
less, the obstinate irrational digs which
conscience-awake again-gave her

gloomier.

1T doesn't make much difference,

He took a great gulp Of tea.
A faint spot of color came on Chris

A FUsIoNIST TRICK.

A few men who call themselves Repub-
licans but whose candidates for county
Office failed to secure the support Of their
party In their respective towns have
joined with the Democratic party in maxi
ing up county ticket To this ticket they
have given two separate names. One is
the so-called straight Democratic ticket,
the other party they call the License Local
Option party. On the official ballot which
will be given every voter next Tuesday
in the column headed License Local OPP
tion party will be printed the names Of
only the men which appear on the Demo-
cratic county ticket. All the state officers
must be filed In. Anyone who votes this
column by marking ii the square at the
head Of the column and does not write in
names for state officers will not vote for
state officers at all. It Is customary for
voters to mark their ballots by marking In
the large square Right here Is where the
trick Is. The Democratic party has placed
the names Of Republicans who failed to
secure the delegations Of their towns TO
the county convention with the under
standing that the License Local Option
party would make no nominations for
state officers, and ID this way cnt down
the vote Of the Republican party for gov
ernor by ballot trick.

PROHIBITI0NIST MISPEPRESENTA.
TI0NS.

In a communication from supporter of
the above party which appeared Ia last
nights issue Of the Telegram was state
ment that our eity's poor expenses have
doubled as result of the license local OPP
tion law. That this is false any one can
discover who will examine into the facts
of the case. For one year from the time
this law went into force the city Of Barre
had the same oveEseer Of the poor that
had served in that same capacity for the
two years previous. Uuder his manage
ment OF the department the expenses for
the support of the poor for the last year
under prohibition was larger than it was
under the first year under the license To-
cal option law. The city council last
April appointed different overseer of the
poor and at once the poor expenses donb-
led. This increase was not brought about
by the local option law but by change of
policy In regard TO the management of the
poor department. This is fair sample
Of the fallacious argument Of our prohibi.
tloulst friend. Like him the Republican
party Of Vermont stands for temperance
and only differ with him ia the way Of
getting at 1t.
