A Change of Plans.

Paris, Oct. 24-The officials of the French Westinghouse Company declare that the abandonment of the proposed $S00.000 loan which was designed ex- clusively for the development of the French business, will necessitate a change of plans, if funds are not ob- tainable in some other manner.
 Nevertheless they expect the fac tories at Havre and Freinville will continue operations. They add that the majority of the stock of the French company is owned by the two Ameri- can companies for which receivers have been appointed.

T WAS but a few weeks
after the death of her hus-
band that Mrs. Lornen
heard, through a real es-
tate agent, of a home out
West obtainable on such
reasonable terms that she
concluded to make the pur-
chase. She argued that with
two boys and a girl to rear
she might fare better with
the spacious surroundings
of a new country, than in
the crowded quarters of her
eastern home. Her advisers
agreed with her. Maybe
they thought they would
rather have her far off
where her poverty could
be hid than near them,
where it would be a glar-
ing reminder to both them
and their friends of their
Indifference to her needs.
Be that as it may, she was
encouraged to make the
trial. But when h ey

when she was accosted by the driver OF the
wagonette who had climbed out and came to meet
her, whip in hand. "Ain't you Mrs Lornen an the
three children?" he asked; "for eff you air I've
come for YOU"
He was evidently a farmer, practical farmer.
His horny hands bespoke this, and his dress,
which though clean, was made regardless OF pre-
vailing fashions. His coat and vest were big and
comfortable, his collar after thought, but
part of the shirt ITSELF turned down over black
cravat, which eravat was tied in knot so hard
that it looked if it would take for its undo
ing Alexander with his sword; and his hair
and beard far nearer gray than black, were

tinued, "an' I've come to take you out to it,
"Then you are Mr.. Smith, suppose?"
you've sopposed right. That's what I'm
named Come pile in, you little shavers." He
relieved with hand Mrs. Lornen of her hand
bags and with the other lifted little threeyear-
old Eddie into the wagonette.
For all the children had ridden so many hun
dreds of miles this little journey from the station
seemed all too short. They would fain have had

and later good, warm supper.
"My wife made good cook out of Klem my
hired boy" Mr.. Smith said in response to the COM

various dishes before them, "she used to say she
didn't see why boy couldn't learn to cook same

Mrs. Lornen, "but found it was only ignorance

I did, and it is no longer drudgery."
''Well, KLEIN can help you

little party that of her advisers Cher brother

N THANKSGIVING DAY

for Hattie had taken in travelling cold so
severe that it seemed almost pneumonia During
this time KLEIN continued to be called chef and
Mr.. Smith to attend to the farm If it had not
passed out of his possession Henry helping him
in all seriousness, and Eddie often traipsing at
his heels asking world of questions.
At the end of that time one evening as they
all sat on the gallery, after supper, Mr.. Smith
said to Mrs. Lornen that he would move now to
his farm across the road that it was being
worked by tenants, but the house was unoccupied
and he would go there himself to live.
"And what will do?" asked Henry, looking
at him in open-eyed wonder.
Mrs. Lornen thought the same for she had
come to realize how little she knew about farm
ing and how much with Mr.. Smith gone, she
would be afraid of tramps during the day and of
burglars at night
ooh, don't go, Mr. Smith," she faltered.
Eddie, as he took in the situation,
climbed up into his lap and burst into tears
"Mr. Miff's goin' off; Mr.. Miffs goin off way
across de road an leave us here for bears an
elfunts to get!"
Hattie, whose cheeks were still white from her
recent illness, crept up close to him. and putting
around his neck, looked straight into his
face.
"Are you going, Mr.. Smith," she asked.
well, this don't look like was" he answered;
and for some reason or other, he drew his coat
sleeve his eyes. "It don't look like 1 was
much. I'll have TO think bout it."
Hush, Eddie, hush," said Hattie, "Mr Smith
isn't gOlng-Mr. Smltn 1Snt going: ne says
so."
Eddie Immediately contracted his cry to a
whimper and later on all of a sudden, turned it
into of delight. 'Mr. Milf aint gon-
Mr.. Milf aint goin'! Go off old bears-go off

Lornen, after the children had quieted down into
a sweet content" "Il just stay on here an

like I'm used to an that KLEIN does his work
"But-but l can't pay Klem-anyway right
now,' replied Mrs. Lornen, VINO in her mind
was contemplating selling some pieces of family
plate for a settlement later on.
"Oh, III pay KLEIN an get whuts necessary
round here an put it on the other notes." said
Mr.. Smith. "You needn't worry about that"
And Mrs. Lornen didn't worry. Although not
such ignoramus the man who thought his
note settled his debt yet she sufficiently con-
fused by the note as to think her business was
all a different basis from what it was

There is only one monument in the
whole British colony of the Bermudas
and it is erected to the memory of
an American. This fact may seem
bit strange until one has heard the
story, which is really story of the
Bermuda lily, and of the man who
made it possible.
Many years ago-dnring President
Hayes administration, in fact-Gen,
Russell Hastings who had made for
himself a brilliant record during the
civil war, was married in the White
House at Washington. He and his
bride went to Bermuda on their we'd
ding trip, and were so charmed with
the beauty of the place that they re-
solved then and there to return, and,
If possible, to make it their perma-
nent abode. The climate, too appeal
ed to them. (The general had been
seriously wounded in the war, and
was far from well.)
A little later the two came again.
Not as tourists this time, but as home
seekers In those days the now-exist-
ing law that none but English citizens
can own land in English colonies was
not in force. So General Hastings had
no difficulty in acquiring a large es-
tate. He chose picturesque site in the
little city of Hamilton, surrounding a
land-locked bay. Here he built his
home, "Sonci.' which stands to-day
among tropical trees and luxuriant
flowers.
Not only did General Hastings at
once become deeply interested in the
place, and in the possibilities for its
development, but he was genuinely
distressed at the poverty of the island
ers, says writer in the Detroit Free
Press. Setting about to improve mat
tiers, he studied the climatic condi-
lions, experimental again and again,
and at length his efforts were crowned
with success. 1t was found that our
