''Mary," said George, "it is no longer
possible to leave you in this house. Your
uncle has deliberately set himself to rob
YOU. Come with me, dear; my mother
will take care Of you till we are mar
ried." Mary hesitsted. "GO, Mary, put
on your hat and come with me. As for
you, Daniel Leighan"-he waited till
Mary had left the room-'we leave you
alone Nothing worse can happen to you.
When you have no longer Mary to pro-
vide beforehand all your wants-when
you are alone all the day and all the
evening, you win remember what you
have thrown away. Oh, you are seventy
years Of age, and you are rich already
and you rob your sisters daughter in or
der for year or two to call yourself
richer stilll'
The old man crouched among his pill
lows and made no answer. Mary was
leaving him. But if she stayed he must
give his consent, and then he would lose
theleland. Ten minutes later Mary-re
turned, carrying a small bag in her hand.
Il have come to say good-by, uncle. "
Her eyes were full of tears. II knew
that l must choose between George and
you. / knew that you would refuse, be-
cause George could save his land if he
had my money, and knew that your
heart was set upon getting his land. But

IT IS suPERELuous NOISE.
A Warranted British Criticism of Ou

"A warranted BRUSH CRITICISM OF Our
Tendency to "WhOop."
National idiosyncrasies are reflected
not only in serious pursuits, but in ma
tional games, says the Philadelphia
Ledger. Baseball is not likely to be-
come an international sport in which
there is any real rivalry, unless the
nations become endowed with Ameri-
can zest in the rapid game. The Lon
don Outlook regrets that Britons and
Americans cannot play baseball on
something like equal terms and comes
to the conclusion that the American
tagonistic to the British at every point.
Englishmen take their pleasures rather
tardy, but the Outlook is not alto
gether astray when it arraigns the
American ball game as extensively
noisy. 1t generously admits that base
ball is "a really fine game" in essence,
but the fielders are allowed Ito yell At
the man with the club in order to rat
tie him." the spectators are permitted
to make "a dlabolical din" for the same
reason; the umpire's decisions, instead
of being submitted to without a muir

1t must be confessed that there ii
much force in the arraignment. Noise
has become an inseparable incident Of
our national game and 1t may as wei
be confessed that public interest IL
the sport would lapse at once If pro
ceedings were conducted in perfect
ly tranquil, self-compOsed and ladylik'
manner
Seriously speaking, the cutlery o
our British contemporary against mer
noise as a public grievance deserves
some attention. Noise is easily mis-
interpreted as a sign Of vigorous en-
terprise in all lines of human activity
There is a hustle of trade which n
one could suppress. The lOudest shout

CHATTER XIV.

When the harvest was over and the
grain was ingathered, and the work Of
the year completed George began to
make his arrangements. He had receiv-
ed the formal notice and a six months
grace in which to find the money. There
was no longer any doubt possible that
he must leave SidcOte. He had now
made It all out in his own mind. There
would be enough money from the harvest
to nav the half-years' interest; the land
would be foreclOsed. And the sale Of his
farm Implements, furniture and every
thing would leave him with few hum
dred to begin the world again. He would

small farm and live upon the fruit OF
his own labor.
LET us" said Mary, make one last
appeal to my uncle. We will go togeth-
err. George. Perhaps he may relent even
at the last"
They made that appeal at an unfor-
tunate time. To begin with, it was in the
morning, when David was still with his
uncle; and in the second place, it was
a morning when David had been abusing
bis position. The redemption value of
the coupons, in fact, was at preposter-
GUS figure, and the poor old man, torn Dy

By rage at the terrible ransom imposed
upon 1t, was rapidly arriving at the con-
dition in which his nephew loved to see
him, when he lost his self-cOmmand, and
In turns groveled, wept, protested, I'M

When they opened the door they found
the old man trembling and shaking with
the passions Of impotence and rage. Hl
face, livid and distorted, with haggarC
eyes was turned upward in an agony o.
entreaty, to meet DaYid's. There was
no passion In that fact, nor any emotion
except a calm and sober satisfaction
which might even have been holy graft
tude, for David's heavy face was hare
to read. He stood over his uncle's chair
dominating him, with bundle OF paper
in his hand, regardless alike of prayer
or imprecatiOns.
''Walt minute, George" he said
