across the Atlantic, enhanced, if such
a thing were possible, the glorious
beauty of her face.
We chartered in a delightfully."- I'M
conventional way until luncheon was
over and then Mrs. Randolph tactfully
left us to ourselves to discuss business
matters in the sitting-room, while Miss
Weston. who was the very antithesis Of
Miss Carney by reason of her i'll
health and frail constitution, retired
for her usual afternoon nap.
The moment we were alone Miss
Carney's ievity and frivolity left her,
and, mouoning me to a seat by her
side, she plunged at once into the con-
sideration of a mass of details con-
"cerning CarneyCroft and it's affairs.
Suddenly she surprised me by asking
pointedly:
why did you remain at Carney.
Croft longer than you had first in
tended? Was it solely to superintend
the opening of the house or was it for
some other reason?"
This question, put to me so ingen.
uously, could be answered only with
the utmost frankness, and | said earn.
estly: There was another reason,
Miss Carney, and an important one"
Then / told her the whole story, as
far as it's practical features were con-
cerned, but avoided. as much as pos.
sible, the recital of any unnecessary
details.

CHAPTER XIV.
A New Victim.

Good morning, Mr.. Ware!" ex.
claimed Miss Carney, as l made a
somewhat tardy appearance at the
breakfast table not long after my ar
raival at Carney-Croft in acceptance
of Mrs. Randolph's invitation. What
report has the bold Nimrod to-day?
Are we to have game for dinner to.
morrow, sir?'
Not so much as the report of a
gun," replied, as l dropped into my
seat. Il only flushed one bird and he
few straight into foliage so dense that
| couldn't get ghost of sight on
him"
1--WE don't mind, so long as we don't
get a sight of a ghost some dark
night, do we, Nan?" laughed Miss
Carney. Besides. I've ordered some
partridges from town and we won't be
disappointed in our dinner, either!
You should be very grateful to me for
saving the day for you, sir"
You might save my reputation, too,
if you would only remark casually, as
the game is served, that l have been
out shooting every morning since
came" ! suggested with a smile. Il
believe you are to have guests to-
morrow"
Yes" she returned with provoking
gravity, "but it's to be the rector and
his wife. | would do a great deal for

Certified Milk.

Certified milk is as clean as it Is
possible to make it, it is free from
Objectionable bacteria in quantities
sufficient to do any harm and it is
of uniform quality. To produce certi-
fled milk the animals must be healthy
and clean, the premises must be clean
the utensils must be sterilized and
every one who works with the milk
must have clean hands and clean
clothes. All this costs extra money,
and the product must bring a higher
price to make 1t pay.

with her present situation and stop
her performances, If only for her own
sake"
But about their getting in and out
of the house whenever they want to?"
queried Miss Carney. Don't you think
it is rather dangerous to have any
such mysteriously hidden entrance en-
tirely unknown to us? Might they not
get in again, while we are there, and
take things or do something of that
sort?"
ooh, no." l replied, reassuringly,
You may be certain they won't do
that. If they had wanted to steal
they'd have done it long ago, when
they had the place to themselves. ]
think they had a key that opened one
of the doors, and I've had new locks
put all over the house. They couldn't
get in now if they tried"
What was said in the notes?" asked
Miss Carney. Il wish you had saved
them. L should have enjoyed seeing
them. l know"
"Oh, nothing of any consequence" l
replied, hastily Just a few words
warning me not to allow you to return
and expressed in regulation penny
dreadful style. The whole thing was
crudely and awkwardly done and l am
sure we have heard the last of it."
"I hope we have" she rejoined,
earnestly. Il am very. fond of Carney
Croft, and, while | don't believe In
ghosts, and shouldn't fear them if |
did, l cannot say that | fancy the idea
or having human providers about the
place. l know that we can get rid of
them sooner or later, but | trust they
won't cause us any annoyance at all"
81 said what | could to reassure her,
and, as ] was going away, she offered
her hand and held mine while she said
softly:
"You have been very thoughtful of
my interests and happiness, Mr..
Ware, and / appreciate it more than |
can tell YOU"
! The pressure of her fingers tighten
| ed for an instant and made the blood
course through my veins until my
whole body tingled and my breath
seemed TO catch in my throat. l mum

Would Take What They Had.

A gentleman purchased at a post
office large quantity of stamped en-
velopes, newspaper wrappers and 9TH
er postal requisites.
Finding them somewhat difficult to
carry, he asked one of the counter
clerks If he could supply him with a
small quantity of string.
I'VE are not permitted by the de-
partment to supply string" was the
reply.
Then give me bit OF red tape"
was the sarcastic retort.
The string was supplied.

you, as you know, but in such highly
moral company you are asking too
much!"
Speaking of ghosts, Mr. Ware"
said Miss Weston, whose assumption
of interest and good spirits was scarce
ly in keeping with her wanly glistening
eyes and the pale, emaciated, hectic ex-
preston of her face you seem to have
these Carney-Croft wraiths most de-
cidedly under your control You have
laid them, in a word, haven't you?"
There certainly have been no un-
canny doings since we've been here"
cried Miss Carney in bantering tone.
Il don't really believe that Mr.. Ware
ever laid a ghost in his life, my dear.
He has just been trying to tease us all
the time!"
Il think DR.. MacArdel had more to
do with it than l." l replied gravely.
"He engineered the whole campaign
against them and is entitled to all the
credit of putting an end to their per-
formances."
Did you say that woman was the
leading spirit in all this mysterious af-
fair?" asked Miss Weston, with inter-
est.
Yes" l returned "and most mild
hammered woman, too. You never
would imagine that she could be cap
able of originating such a startling
plot. 1t really was quite exciting while
| it lasted"
Il wonder if | saw her the other
day continued Miss Weston. WAS it
the gentle-faced, motherly old soul
who lives in the new house over by
the orchard?"
"The very one replied, laughing.
And this same motherly old soul, as
| you call her, can be as self-contained
and tragic as you please when occasion
requires. She ought to be on the stage,
| assure you"
'Why, what did she do that was so
tragic?" they exclaimed in breath,
and Miss Carney continued, reprovlpg-
! ly: You couldn't have told us the
whole story, I'm sure. Please give us
the tragic part of it at once, Mr..
! Ware"

MAKING TILE CEMENT.
1t Is Easy Work When the knack Has
Been Learned.

1t is surprising how fast one may
make tile when once the knack Is
learned. Make a half dozen little
troughs two feet long inside and three
inches deep If you are to make
three-inch tile, and four inches deep
for four-inch tile. These are quickly
nailed together and are begun like No.

DR.. Lees Lecture.

Prot. Guy Carleton Lee, of B,ltimo-e.
delivered lecture last Saturday night
in the Shepherd College auditorium on
the subject, When the People Awake >
There was large audience present,
and the criticism was varied. DR..
Lee has iectured here before and made
a most excellent impression. he did
not sustain his reputation Saturday
night-indeed, we feel bound to say
that he never would have acquired
fame if his previous Efforts had not
been greatly superior to this lecture
Delivered with thoughtful carefulness
and with full sense of responsibility,
it would doubtless have been much
more impressive, but even country
audiences cannot but feel offended
when they realize that a speaker is
not doing bis beat for them. We do
not see how Dr. Lee can afford to dis
appoint any fatty sppreciative gath
ering of people By hurrying his words
to the point Of unintelhgIbllity and
making Kaleidoscope of his thought
in order to catch train.

The Town Gets a Scare.

The people who live on Main street
between Church aud King had the
scare Of their lives last Saturday af-
ternoon. Cries of FIRE ATTACKED gen.
eral attention, and an appalling cloud
of dense black smoke was seen to en-
velop the houses in the vicirity. II
looked as if there was an awful con-
Asgration imminent. The engine was
gotten out, the FIRE alarm was rung,
and people ran to the scene from
every direction. Luckily there was
DO ere, after all. A chimney of the
house occupied by Mrs Mollis Folk
burnt out, and as it WAS exceedingly
foul it had created mighty smoke.
TIE roofs wer- covered with snow, &c
there was very little danger. even u
it was 80 threatening IN appearance.
