CHAPTER Y.

Babette's arms and back ached almost
beyond endurance, yet the brush con-
tinued to play over Pauline Malling's
hair as it hung in luxuriant profusion
down her back. Pauline was deep in
thought, for the Duke of Bennoir had
just sent her the exquisite bunch Of
roses she held in her hand, with the lit
tie note lying open on the table, and she
was making up her mind as to whether
she should accept or reject the offer she
knew he would make when he called by
and by.
Ibid / look really well last night,
Babette?" she asked.
"Mademoiselle is irresistible when she
chooses" murmured the French woman.
Miss Mailing again relapsed into deep
thought.
''If l could only be sure of the past
remaining the past, if l were only GER
tain that ugly facts would not turn up
unexpectedly to face me, / would marry
this poor creature with title--I would,
If only to save me from myself. Surely,
after six years of safety and prosperity,
am never going to be such an utter idiot
as to risk loss of everything, because this
| poor painter is good looking and charm
ingly candid. l hate myself for my
weakness. Only ten days ago l began
this Irritation for my own amusement
and to annoy that big-eyed, pale-faced
child, to give her a few unhappy hours
as set-off against the perpetual anxiety
her mere existence causes me, and, before
l am certain that either of these purposes
is accomplished. l wake up to the humil
l. thot ,trhf Y
own trap, that for the first time in my
life l have fallen in lovew
She burst into scornful laughter, Sc
startling Babette that the ivory-backeG
brush few out of her hand, and sh,
stood with round eyes and open moutl
regarding her mistress face in the glass
''What is the matter with you? VIII,
are you staring at me like that?"
BY an effort Babette recovered he

she murmured, alphabetically.
"Nonsensel Go on with your brush
ing, and do not take notice of what doe
not concern you"
"She is a very catr' Babette said, con
6dentially, to the brush. as she picked
up. II should like to know what wicked
ness she is plannig now"
Perhaps it is not to be wondered al

two pieces, B B, are of 1x2-inch stuff,
20 inches long, with holes about 2
inches apart, so the harrow can be ad-
justed to any desired width, from to
3 feet. The piece, G, to hitch to, Is
2x3 inches and IA feet long on top
side, firmly bolted to center piece of
frame. At D D there are two iron
plates Ax11hx5 inches, with three holes
in each; these hold A A A together.
Use as bolts Of proper length for all Of
the frame. The teeth should be Of 9s
steel, well sharpened. The handles
can be taken from some cultivator or
pillow and readily adjusted to the cul-
tivator. The two pieces, E r, should
be of Ax11a-inch stuff, and as long as
desired. All should be bolted firmly
together for best results.

Have you ever asked him?'
Papa! What an extraordinary ques-
ton that would be for me to ask him
l dare say his grandfather was as good
man as NINE
MY dear, your grandfather was one
of the oldest commoners in England. The
Mallings of Mallingford hold themselves
among the best people in Exbridgeshire"
Ethel looked at her father as if she
feared his reason had given way.
Il dare say you are very astonshed.
You have always known me as a hard
working drawing master, and of course
concluded / had never been anything
else My dear, that Mallingford Park,
of which Jack writes so enthusiastically,
is mine by all just laws of succession.
But my elder brother, the late owner, cut
me off with a shilling because l annoyed
him about a triting matter, and left the
whole property to my niece, your cousin,
Pauline Luton"
And | am eighteen, and this is the
first word l have ever heard of it!''

lect during the past week You are as
we'll born as this cousin of yours of
whom he raves and l will not allow him
to slight you in any way"
Daddy, will you let me manage this
matter myself? You have so surprised
me by what you have just said that
am almost bewildered, and can hardly
think of anything else. But l am sure
that l am too self-conceted to let Jack
really slight me. If l thought he want
| ed me to give him his freedom l would
do it at once. I think it would almost
break my heart, but l would do it.
would not bestow myself where l was
lightly thought Of"
Heaven bless my child! l can trust
you to support the family reputation
for self-respect; and, Ethel, if you are
writing to Jack to-day, don't touch on
that subject. | have reasonus for nor
wishing him to know anything about the
matter until | tell him myself"
Ethel looked disappointed. She hand
ed her father his hat and gloves, and
kissed her hand to him from tn window
| as he turned the corner of the street
and then went back to her letter. She
read it through more than once, her face
wearing a thoughtful expression. Then
she sat down with loosely clasped hands
thinking over the letter even when she
had returned it to her pocket
81 am sure of it-he loves this Miss
Mailing! Papa did not call her by that
name. | forget now what he called her
but it was not Mailing. l thought my
dislike to parting with Jack was all
nonsensical fancy at the time; but
know now it was a real forewarning OF
this sorrow. He will never come back
just the same as he went, even if he
gets over this fancy for her. Jack
dear old Jack-why-why did you SPEAK
of your love for me until you were quite
quite certain you could never care fol
any one else? Oh, Jack, l can't let yor

With a heart-broken little cry she
threw herself upon the cushion.

Il suppose you knew her at once by
her likeness to her mother?"
Strange to say we didn't, sir! To be
sure she was very ill, for her father had
been dead six months before she heard
word about being heiress to this prop
erty, and all that time, to keep herself
from starving, had been teaching in some
Spanish convent. But even as she re-
covered her looks we watched in vain for

they can be attached and suspended to
the side of the horses head. This does
not give the horse any freedom TO
move his head without moving the
bag also. A Philadelphia man has pat
ented an exceedingly simple feed bag
which overcomes this fault, an lllustra-
ton of which is shown here. The bot
tom and sides are made of canvas or
other flexible material, while the top
consists of circular frame divided
into two sections, which are connected
by small loops. Supporting the bag
are two metal rods, one on each side,
having hooks at the end which fit into
the loops in the frame In the center
and at the other end of the rods are
circular loops which are shaped to fit
over the shaft of the vehicle. 1t can
easily be seen how easily this could
be done, the bag always remaining In
position where the horse could con-
venienty reach the feed, at the same
time being able to move his head free
ly. This feed bag has the additional
i advantage that it can be folded IN
when not in use.

1t does not take either very much
money or very much time to keep the
porkers right.
1t is taken for granted that they get
enough to eat, because every farmer
knows what 1t means to feed right
but feeding is not the whole thing.
1t is, of course, the most important
factor in hog life, but very close to
1t comes the dry house and good, clean
bedding.
1t is too common a conclusion that
anything will do for the hogs and that
they will wax fat under any condi-
tons and with all sorts of feed.
Hogs, although apparently strong
are very susceptible to sudden changes
In the weather and once they take cold
fall easy victims to lung troubles
which often result fatally, and then
when hog meat means money there ar,
