"Uncle." she said. 81 cannot hear II

"Uncle," she said, II cannot bear It
any longer, must do something"
"But, my DEAR" he asked, looking
down upon her with infinite affection,
what can you do? We are here upon
an immovable island, and your father
Is Sailing upon the sea, nobody knows
where

said Kate, "and this is what I will do.
will go to the governor; will tell
him all about my father. I do not
think it will be wrong even to tell him
why think his mind has become un-
settled, for if that woman in Bridge
town has behaved wickedly, her wick
edness should be known Then will
ask him to give me written authority
to take my father wherever I may find
him, and to bring him here, where it
shall be decided what shall be dona
with him; and am sure the decision
will be that he must be treated as a
man whose mind is not right, and who
should be put somewhere where he can
have nothing to do with ships"
This was quite childish to Mr. Della
plaine, but, for Kate's dear sake, he
treated her scheme seriously.
"But tell me, my DEAR" said he,
chow are you going to find your father,
and in what way can you bring him
back here with you?"
"The first thing to do," said Kate, "is
to hire ship; l know that my little
property will yield me money enough
for that. AS for bringing him back,
that's for me to do. With my arms
around his neck he cannot be a pirata
captain. And think OF it, uncle! If my
arms are not soon around his neck, it
may be the hangman's rope which will
be there"
Mr.. Delaplaine was troubled fal
more than he had yet been. His sor
rowing niece believed that there was
something which might be done for hel
father, but he, her practical uncle, did
not believe that anything could be
done. And, even if this were possible,
he did not wish to do it. If, by some
unheard-of miracle, his niece should be
enabled to carry out her scheme, she
could not 60 alone, and thoughts OF
sailing upon the sea, and the dangers
from pirates, storms, and wrecks, were
very terrible to the quiet merchant. He
could not encourage this night-born
scheme of his niece.
But there is one thing l can do"
cried Kate, "and must do it this very
day. I must go up to the governors
house, and l pray you, uncle, that you
will 60 with me-"
1t was not half an hour after that
Kate and her uncle entered the grounds
of the governors mansion.

WHEN SPRAYING ORCHARDS
Have Everything Ready and Then
Conduct the Work Without
the Least Delay.

Success with any method of treatment
often depends upon adequate and early
preparation, so that the treatment may
be administered at just the right time.
Writing in Wallaces Farmer on the
Importance of preparation for success
full spraying, Prof. Little says:
Where large orchard is to be
sprayed, the mixture should be made
up in large quantities, so that there
will be no delay at spraying time. 1t
is somewhat difficult to estimate the
amount of material needed on a GER
tain number of trees, but safe basis
of calculation for trees of moderate
size is SO gallons of mixture to so
trees, or one gallon to each tree. After
an approximate amount required has
been determined upon the mixture
should be prepared. A quantity of so
gallons is most easily made up, as a
common barrel will hold this amount
Prepare stock solution of Bordeaux,
the common mixture, by placing so
pounds of copper sulphate in a gunny
sack and suspending it in a barrel
holding so gallons of water. Cold
water will dissolve it, providing the
Jumps have been crushed; if not, it will
be necessary to use hot water The
SO pounds of lime should be carefully
Stacked in large box, and when it has
assumed a creamy condition place it
in barrel holding so gallons, and
stir thoroughly. Now you have a stock
solution of Bordeaux mixture. When
ready to use, stir the contents of both
barrels. Take five gallons of the lime
mixture and place it in the spray bar
rel; add rs gallons of water, then
add five gallons of copper sulphate
solution, filling the barrel with wa
ter. Stir thoroughly and apply. For
spraying plums and cherries this should
be diluted more, using only four gal
Ions of each mixture. Never mix the
| copper sulphate and lime mixtures TO-
gether, but put each in the spray barrel
separately and dilute with water"

Use Heavy Parchment Paper.

J
When parchment paper is to be
used in the packing of butter only the
best kind and quality should be used.
The cost is a small matter for any
one package of butter, and it is not
safe to use an inferior quality though
there is much of such stuff on the
market. In the battle to secure trade,
low priced articles are always being
put on the market, and this is as true
of parchment paper as of anything
else. Generally the very thin paper
does not afford the protection that
the butter packer supposes he is get
ting. The very light paper is some
of it 50 loosely made that the spores
of mold once in it find abundant op-
portunity to grow. The cheap paper
often proves to be very expensive in
the end.-Farmers' Review.

Value Of the Busy Bee.

The value of the bee in the work of
fertilizing plants by carrying pollen
from one plant to another is greater
than it's use in producing honey, says
an exchange. In fact, without the aid
of bees many crops would be complete
failures. Darwin found that in 100
heads of purple clover protected from the
visitation of bees not a seed was pro-
duced, while 100 heads visited by bees
produced nearly 5000 seeds. When two
varieties of certain plants are grown in
the same neighborhood there is likeli-
hood Of cross-fertilization, as bees for
age over large territory. twill, there
fore, pay the farmer or fruit grower to
keep at least one hive of bees or en-
courage his neighbor to do so.

Selecting the Garden Site.

In making selection of an appropri-
ate situation for a garden, one should
be chosen which will receive throughout
the day, but more especially in the morn
ing, the full benefit of the sun. A gen.
tie slope to the south and east is always
preferable. The close proximity to
large trees should be avoided, as their
ever greedy roots would absorb the nu-
triment which the vegetables require.
and their shade deprive them of light
and heat Vegetables can never be
brought to maturity in a retired OF shady
spot A garden should be as near the
dwelling as possible

ure than the art of storytelling, unless
it may be the art of singing song. But
even the simplest song sounds better
when accompanied on musical instru-
ment, and that is not always to be had.
The story needs only the audience, says
Youths Companion. 1t is no respecter
of persons. The effective story-teller
has a welcome by the camp fire, at the
dinner table, in the lawyers office; at
the sick bed, in the school room and at
the kitchen door.
Women have not excelled in conversa-
tional storytelling. Perhaps their fail
ure is partly because they find it hard
to be brief. Women do not always know
what to say. Of all the rules which gov
ern the story-teller, the most imperative
is that which cuts away the superfluous.
Nobody but yourself knows what good
things you leave out" is the only con-
ISOLATION for the merciless pruning of the
successful story-teller.
One woman will spend 20 minutes in
recounting her misfortunes in a single
morning, and her audience will suppress
a yawn and be glad when the long
drawn-out tale is over. Another will
crowd into two minutes rapid sketch
OF street-crossing adventure, and
every sentence will carry delight be-
cause of its humorous, vital, sympathet-
ic touch.
1t is difficult to teach the beguiling art
of telling a story: but one NAV hear al
most any day examples of how not to do
it-and an occasional rare illustration
of how to do it. But a woman who will
teach herself skill in the accomplish
ment will never lack a welcome, for the
world Is hungry for innocent pleasure.

CHAPTER XIV.
THE GOVERNOR OF JAMAICA.

S& HE governor of Jamaics
&ES Z was interested in the Wis.
Is4<lla11 it of Kate Bonnet, whom
he saw alone in room adjoining the
public apartments. He had met he1
there two or three times before, and had
been forced to admit that the young girls
of Barbados must be pretty and
piquant in an extraordinary degree.
But now she was different. Her sor-
row had given her dignity and had added
to her beauty. She quickly told her tale,
and he started upright in his chair as he
heard it..
"Do you mean," he exclaimed, that
that pirate is your father? 1t amazes
me! The similarity of names did not
strike me; never imagined any con-
nection between you and the captain OF
that pirate ship"
Now Kate was weeping. The gov
ernor did not attempt to console her.
Her sorrow was natural, and it was her
right.
When she looked up again she spoke
about what she had come to ask him for; :;
the authority to bring back her father
wherever she might find him, and to
defend him from the attacks of all per-
sons, whoever they might be, until she
reached Jamaica. And then she told
him how she would seek for her father
on every sea.
The governor sat and pondered. The
father of such a girl should be saved
from the terrible fate awaiting him, ii
the thing could possibly be done. And
yet, what difficult, almost hopeless
thing it was to do. To find a pirate, q
fierce and bloody pirate, and bring him
back unharmed to his daughters arms
and to reasonable restraint.
He spoke earnestly. What you pro-
pose," he said, ''you cannot do. 1t would
beimpossible for you to find your father;
and if you did, no matter who might be
with you, and no matter how successful
you might be with him, his crew would
not let him go. But there is one thing
which might be done. His majestys
war vessels report at different stations.
I might send a dispatch to his majesty 4
naval officers, ordering them not to harm
your father, but to take him prisoner
and to bring him here to be dealt with.
Kate sprang to her feet.
"An order!" she exclaimed, ian order
to withhold the hand of the law from
my father? All, sir, your goodness IL
great, this is far more than had dared
to expect!"
II beg you to be seated" said the gov.
ernor, "and let me assure you, that in
Offering to send this order, do not in the
least expect you to take it,
From my heart thank you, SIR
cried Kate, 'give me the orders and ]
will take them, or I will"
NAY, nay" said the governor, "such
offices are not for you, but will give the
matter my present attention. Rely on
me, my dear young lady, my order shall
go by the very earliest opportunity"
Kate rose and thanked him warmly
"This is much to do, your excellency, fo1
one poor girl." she said.
1T is but little to do," said the gov.
ernor, "and that girl be yourself"
With that he rose, offered Kate his
arm, and conducted her to her uncle.
