I'm the end it was arranged as Tur-
ner had suggested, though not without
many tears from the mother, ana
many signs from the father For, in
spite of Turner's assurances it did
seem as if they were selling their
child.
For some time all went well and
the interest was paid regularly. Then
another little Larkson appeared upon
the scene, typhoid fever attacked the
two oldest children, and finally two
years had elapsed since any interest
had been paid on the strange mort
gage.
Roy was Z years old when Turner
foreclosed and took the boy to live
with him. BY this time the Larksons
had become accustomed to the idea,
they saw they never could pay their
debt in any other way and knew,
moreover, that it was doubtless a for
tunate thing for the boy to have won
the love of this man who could do so
much for him. And really, it was not
so very hard to bear, after adj. Roy
was at home as much as ever, the only
difference being that at meal times
and at night he went across the road
His mother cared for his clothes as
usual, but Turner insisted on paying
her for it.
"A change had geen gradually com
ing over Hold Turner The child's love
seemed to have made another man Of
him and he was now as genial as he
had formerly been gruff. He lived in
the boy, made plans for his future
and spoke of him as his son. As for
Roy, he was quite contented and hap
Ply with the new order of things.
"One night the climax of the Lark
sons troubles came. There was cry
or fire. that awoke Turner and Roy
across the road How the fire had
started no one knew, but before it was
discovered it gained such Roadway
that there was barely time for all the
family to escape when, amid walls of
grief and dismay, the roof fell. Not a
thing was saved.
Then Hold Turner gave proof of the
change wrought in his character. He
opened wide his big house and took
in the homeless family, to stay until
they could find some other home.
Mr.. Larkson at once sought anoth-
er farm to rent, without success. AS
the weeks went on, Turner found that
the merry family of children bright
ened up his gloomy house amazingly.
Mrs. Larkson's cooking was better
than his own, and Larkson had more
practical ideas of farming than his
foreman had, and so-well, as the vii
lage wag put it. Turner might as
well have had mortgage on the whole
family

some indefinable change of feeling, Mr..

one was surprised to find Roy, little

The sun was setting, the shirt was
mended, the story was told and 1t was
supper time. Aunt Martha paused a
moment when she had folded her work
and am sure heard her murmur.

Hm-Valet is to Be Tried.

London, Aug. IA strange story of
impersonation, with a tragic sequel,
has just been unfolded in the law
courts of Rome. Count Adriance Ben
iculli, an eccentric nobleman, charges
his valet, Antonoro Paolo, with having
caused the death of Countess Benz
culli. Taking advantage of the extra
ordinary resemblance between him
self and the valet, the count employed
his valet to impersonate him at vari-
Gus social functions in Rome and else
where, while he himself devoted his
time to his hobby of collecting and re-
pairing ancient locks.
Paolo, provided with money and
good clothes, moved in the best soci-
ETY. and was everywhere received as

iculli at ball the valet paid her as
siduous attention. The countess was
