tleved that Miss Carney loved me,
bad soon argued myself into an oppo-
site way of thinking on the ground,
as | have said before, that her feel
ings toward me were Influenced and
magnified by her present anxiety and
distress. Now, however, after consid-
ering the matter through the long
hours of the night until my brain
fairly reeled and l was sick at heart
at the thought of my brutal behavior,
| was at last able to see things in
right light
Miss Carney had given me every
evidence of her regard that she
could give and still preserve her dig
ninty and womanliness. She had
doubtless realized the difficulties of
my position, and she had taken into
account that her brothers absence
served as an added reason for my
silence, and so she had met me more
than half way and yet had remained
silent
She had even permitted me to kiss
her hand, and then, on the first occa-
sion that offered, she had given me
an opportunity to say the words that
| owed to her if she would preserve
her self-respect and not consider that
l had trified with her in a most
cruel and unmanly way. And still
had remained silent, in an egotis-
tical belief that my attitude was chiv-
alrous and commendable when, in
fact, it was only Quixotic and brutal
ly unkind
Now, she could only think that
did not love her, for surely she could
not conceive that sane man would
have acted the part did on the ver-
anda unless he regarded her almost
with Indifference.
l rose and paced the floor until my
head throbbed hating myself and try
ing to smother my emotions until the
morning came and l could go to her
and beg her forgiveness.

gray light spread itself over the fields,

SCIENCE AND FARMING,
The Wisdom of Making Nature Fight
the Insect Foes.

Scientists are now realizing that the
abundance of insect pests which the
farmer of today has to battle with is
due largely, if not entirely, to the up
setting of natures laws.
Before man placed the woods and
prairies under cultivation, excessive
increase of any insect species was
perhaps unknown, or, at most, very
rare.
Nature has always provided forces
which operate against each other, as
it were, and with insects, as with
other creatures, balance between the
numbers of different species has been
maintained.
Modern methods Of farming have
often decreased the natural enemies
of injurious insects, says Coleman s
Rural World, and in other cases have
afforded conditions favoring the rapid
multiplication of insects not formerly
present in dangerous numbers.
The practical entomologist of to-
day, while not discounting the value
of poisons and sprays as implements
of war against the six-footed host,
recognizes that really satisfactory
control is to be brought about by a
partial or total restoration of the con-
ditions under which nature formerly
prevented the different species from
becoming too numerous. The ento-
mologist accordingly studies parasitic
enemies and diseases which destroy
the injurious insects, and oftentimes
he is enabled to encourage the para
sites to such' an extent that they
largely or entirely control the injuri-
Gus forms.

into play in case of an accident. BY
experience we have found that acci-
dents generally happen in the worst
possible place, where it is difficult to
help ourselves. Sometimes the losing
of nut or bolt may be the means of
throwing out half days work, rem
dering it impossible to continue until
the damage has been repaired. While
a great many of our farmers may
think it is unnecessary and that it is
always best to have everything snug
and shipshape before going to the field
or setting out on a journey, accidents
will happen, no matter how much
care is taken.
A wagon box such as is described
here, says The Farmer, will frequent
ly come into use and be the means of
saving a considerable outlay that
would otherwise be necessary for re-
pairs. This box can be made about 18
inches long and 16 inches wide and
five or six inches deep. 1t should be
provided with several compartments
for nuts and bolts of various sizes. 1t

staples, bolts, nuts, screws, screw
driver, hammer, cold chisel, wood

per riyets, some open links, hatchet, a
few wrought nails and such other
things as experience may prove to be
convenient to have. The shape of the
box is shown in the illustration. The
middle of the top is nailed fast, while
on each side is hinged lid, fastened
with a hasp and staple for lock, if
necessary. This box can be suspended
from the guide pole directly beneath
the center of the wagon box by two
strong leather straps with buckles.
Such box would not be in the way
and would be easily accessible if any
thing was wanted.

LIFE INSURANCE ACTIVITY.
The New York Life's Business Nearly
Up to the Legal Limit.

The New York Life Insurance Com.
pany announces that it's new paid
business during the half year just end
ed was over seventy million dollars.
AS the new law allows no life COM
pany to write over one hundred and
fifty millions per year, it would ap-
pear that this company is working
nearly up to the limit. The New
York Life gained such headway be-
fore the law was passed and suffered
so little, comparatively, from the Arm
strong investigation, that the question
with it's management has been how to
keep business down to the limit, rath-
er than how to reach it. No other
company is writing nearly as much
as the law allows. The New York
Life has evidently become a pre-
ferred company.
The company's payments TO policy
holders during the six months end
ing June 80 were $21 ,660,761. 1t is
interesting to note that this amount
was almost equally divided between
payments under policies maturing by
death and payments made to living
policy holders. Thus, while death
claims were s11,1S0,626, the amount
paid for matured endowments, annu-
tiles, trust fund installments, for pur-
chased policies and for dividends was
S10,480,135. Modern life insurance, as
practiced by the best companies, en-
braces wide field, and covers many
contingencies. 1t is money saved for
the aged, as well as money provided
for the families Of those who die pre-
maturely.

Modesty of True Greatness.

Abou Ben Adhem had just found
out that his name led all the rest.
STILL" he observed, with a modesty
as rare as it was charming, "the sea-
son is young yet. I've made a few
lucky hits, it's true, but just as likely
as not / shall be at the bottom of the
percentage column in batting before
the season ends" Smilingly accept
ing the bouquet Of cut flowers sent to
him by an admirer in the grandstand,
he stepped up to the plate, struck
out, lodged lemon thrown at him
by a disgusted bleacherite, and went
and took his seat on the bench.

for he waved his hand pleasantly as
he left her and she returned his sal
utation by throwing him a kiss as
coyly as schoolgirl.
The first thing the woman did after
entering the house was to extinguish
the lights, no longer necessary, as the
rays of the sun began to touch the hill
tops, and | was just lowering my glass

ner of the building and disappearing

for him to show himself again, but
he did not, and finally, | turned and

ing all possible haste, lest l should
lose it when the frost disappeared.
The foot prints led me up on the
hill and around to the side away
from the house and, at length, be-
came lost in a grove of hemlOcks un-
der which there was no tell-tale frost.
For time it seemed that my eff
forts were to prove OF no avail, and
that ! might as well return home,
but the more l thought of the mat
ter the more l was convinced that
these people had been out for no
good purpose, and that it was my
duty to learn, if possible, what mis-
chief they had been contriving at
this early hour and where they had
been.
In fact, l suddenly realized that |
had not taken a proper interest in
the mysterious happenings at Carney
Croft and that while it had seemed
quite enough to bring them to a stand
still, as far as outward appearances
were concerned, they were, in reality,
of far too great Importance to let
pass so easily.
Miss Weston's connection with the
affair gave new aspect to it, of
course, and while l was bound by my
word to respect her secret there was

vent me from using every legitimate

pouring and whose windows were
brightly lighted as If something of

rapidly down the road and the woman
reentered the house.

MEAT OR CEREALS.
A Question of Interest to All Care
full Persons.

Arguments on food are interesting.
Many persons adopt vegetarian diet
on the ground that they do not like to
feel that life has been taken to feed
them, nor do they fancy the thought
Of eating dead meat.
On the other hand, too great con-
sumption of partly cooked starchy
oats and wheat or white bread, pastry,
ETC., produces serious bowel troubles,
because the bowel digestive organs
(where starch is digested), are over
taxed and the food ferments, produc-
ing gas, and microbes generate in the
decayed food, frequently bringing on
peritonitis and appendicitis.
Starchy food is absolutely essential
to the human body. Its best form is
shown in the food "Grape-Nuts," where
the starch Is changed into form of
sugar during the process of its manu-
facture. In this way, the required
food is presented to the system in a
pre-digested form and is Immediately
made into blood and tissue, without
taxing the digestive organs.
A remarkable result in nourishment
is obtained; the person using Grape
Nuts gains quickly in physical and
mental strength. Why in mental?
Because the food contains delicate
particles of Phosphate of Potash OBJ
tanned from the grains, and this unites
with the albumen of all food and the
combination is what nature uses to re-
build worn out cells in the brain.
This is scientific fact that can be
easily proven by ten days use OF

on my own account and make use of
such knowledge as l might ac-
quire in any way that would best
serve my purposes without reacting
on her
I wandered about, more or less aim
lessly, in the grove until, as was on
the point of leaving in chagrin, again
discovered the tracks in the frost lead
ing across little open space from an
other and denser grove near by. l
plunged at once into this and had no
trouble in directing my steps through
the underbrush, which was broken
and bent in many places and showed
plainly the course taken by the man
and woman but short time be-
fore.
After going on in this way for some
little distance l suddenly found my
self in small clearing under the
branches of the overtowering trees,
and saw, to my horror, an oblong
space of newly turned earth which
bore every resemblance in size and
general appearance to grave.
For several minutes I stood spell
bound with fear and dread and then,
summoning up all my courage and
with cold sweat standing out on
my body, l began to dig down in the
soft brown earth, using stick that
was lying near by, and even my
hands, to remove the stones and
larger clumps of soil.
About a foot below the surface I
came upon bundle wrapped in cloths
of the same kind In every way as
those found by MacArdel and myself
on the night when we first saw the
ghosts and shot at jerks.

ment, and quaking visibly. l rose
from the ground and leaned against
a tree for support. Then, for the
first time, saw that there were many
other little mounds surrounding the
