am not asking for him anything that
he would be afraid to ask for himself.
But he also has his pride. He will not

Steinmetz rose somewhat ponderous-
" and stood looking down at her. He
did not, however, succeed In meeting
her eyes.
"Mademoiselle," be said. 81 beg of
you most humbly-most respectfully
to come through the garden with me
toward the house, so that Paul may at
least know that you are here"
He moved away and stood for a mo-
ment with his back turned to her, look
ing toward the house. The crisp rustic
Of her dress came to him as she rose
to her feet.
Without looking round he walked
slowly on. The path through the trees
was narrow; two could not walk
abreast. After q few yards Steinmetz
emerged on to a large, sloping lawn
with flower beds and a long, low house
above it. On the covered terrace a
man sat writing at a table. He was
surrounded by papers, and the pen In
his large, firm hand moved rapidly
over the sheet before him.
I'VE still administer the estate" said
Steinmetz in a low voice. From our
exile we still SOW Dur seed"
They approached over the messy turf,
and presently Paul looked up, a strong
face, stern and self contained, the face
of a man who would always have a
purpose in life, who would eve be
petty in thought or deed.
For a moment he did not cen to rec
ognize them. Then he rose, and the
pen fell on the flags of the terrace.

and no other word was spoken.
Maggie walked on in a sort of uncon-
seriousness. She only knew that they
were all acting an inevitable part,
written for them in the great libretto
Of life. She never noticed that Stein
metz had left her side; that she was
Walking across the lawn alone.
Paul came to meet her and took her
hand in silence. There was SO much to
say that words seemed suddenly value
less; there was so little to say that they
were unnecessary.
For that which these two had to tell
each other cannot be told in inmates
nor yet in years. 1t cannot even be told
in a lifetime, for it is endless, and it
runs through eternity.

scarcely seemed to breathe.

Maggie glanced toward the canoe.

THE OBNOXIOUS THISTLE.

There is growing in some localities
in Lewistown what is said TO be the
genuine Canadian thistle, variety
which is difficult to exterminate and
which spreads rapidly if unmolested
In Great Falls, the city authorities,
experimenting the danger from the
rapid growth of thistles, have includ-
ed them along with the dandelion as
an obnoxious plant that demands ex-
termination. AT a recent meeting of
the common council of that city an
ordinance was passed which makes

that any person owning or having
control of any land or premises on
which any of them grow shall be
deemed guilty of supporting and
maintaining the nuisance, and upon
conviction shall be fined not exceed
ing $50 for each offense Provision
is made, as usual, for enforcing the
ordinance.
While it may not be deemed adj.
visable for the city to incur the ex-
pense of fighting these undesira
plants, or making it incumbent upon
property owners to do so. that neces-
slty, SO far as it relates to the this
ties, would not arise in the future if
prompt action We're taken now by all
concerned. 1t is said the roots of
the Canadian thistle extend to a con-
siderable depth in a few years and
are disposed of with great difficulty
the longer they remain undisturbed.
If the city authorities would keep
them out of the streets and property
owners exercise a little vigilance in
removing them from their premises
in their insipient growth the evil
could be disposed of with little la.
Dor and cost. Possibly gasoline
might prove an antidote for the this.

We have here to deal with an or.

it is true. be altered and deteriorated
by the mixture of other blood and un.

leads to the inevitable historical re.

finally leads but the shadow of ex-

The Modern Locomotive,

The great increase that has taken
place OF late years in the size, weight
ana power of fast passenger loco
motives, is to be ascribed mainly to
Two causes. First. the increased
weight of the trains. and second, the
demand on behalf of the public for
faster trains. OF these two causes
the former has been the most active
in influencing the design of the loco
motive; for while there has been a
decided increase in the speed of ex.
press trains. there has been a relative.
ly greater increase in their weight
some of the trains being of a weight
which. a few years ago, would have
been considered prohibitive.
ContempOraneOusly with the in
crease in weight and power OF express
locomotives, there has been a decided
change III type. Not many years ago
the term American locomotive" as
applied to those that hauled passen-
ser trains, was universally under
stood TO mean an eight-wheel engine
with forward truck. four coupled
wheels, and the cylinder driving the
leading axle. The call for greater
power and larger boiler then led TO
the introduction of a third pair of
driving wheels, giving us the six
coupled express engine, which. for
While, held undispute-l possession of
the field for the heavy fast passenger
trains. This, in turn was succeeded
by the celebrated Atlantic type. TO-
wheeled engine with forward truck
four coupled driving wheels, and a
pair of trailing wheels beneath the
trebox. the cylinder being connected
to the rear driving wheels-a type that
