He glanced swiftly around the quiet
room, bringing his eyes again to her
calm face. He felt welcomed, warmed
his heart lighter. This beautiful home
was like his own, ample, refined; and
its genius stood on pedestal beside
the memory of his mother.

CHAPTER XIII.
The Promise Kent.

Alfred came downstairs TO Mrs. Har-
mons spacious parlor. 1t lacked some
minutes of the dinner hour, and he
hoped for cozy chat before the Judge
came In. At least he felt sure of the
few minutes it took the Judge TO
scramble, grumbling, into his detested
evening clothes.
Mrs. Harmon entered, a stately,
white-haired woman in creamy, SHIN
mering satin, whose merry eyes be,
lied the somewhat stern mouth.
Alfred" She was beside him in
front OF the fire before he was aware
OF her presence. How good II is TO

She looked him over critically, yet in
breath. You have acquired tan. a

troduced TO the other guests when
through the hall archway Miss An
thony appeared. He stopped In the.
middle OF a speech and stared open
mouthed 1t was Stella!
He took a quick step forward, but
halted This was not his Stella. She
dwelt only in memory, in the far, fra
grant mountains. His long, fruitless
search for her flashed upon him, his
months, years of longing. Surely she
had not wished to be found. He looked
again at the stately woman before him.
No, no. this was not his Stella.
Esther's entrance had Immediately
focused attention. Alfred was glad
that his perturbation had thus gone
unnoticed He took shelter behind a
pillar and covertly followed her move
ments.
She was taller than before, he
thought; and she carried herself regal
ly. Her gown was white; and save
the crimson rose droop,hg from her
hair, the rich dress was relieved only
by string of priceless pearls, the
most beautiful Alfred had ever seen.
Guests went forward to meet her,
till she was encircled. Turning this
way and that to make her replies. AL
fred fancied she sent a fleeting glance
his way. But before there was time
for further speculation, dinner was
announced; and in the slight confusion
of finding partners, Esther, passing,
looked at him without recognition.

hope was dying.

NO, Of course not 1t would take

How to Fight the Rose
Chafer.

The Rose Chafer beetle issues
from the ground in June and with
in two or three weeks lays its eggs
in the earth from one to four
inches beneath the surface, usual
ly in waste land, particularly If it
be of light sandy character. The
grubs, which much resemble the
we'll known white grubs of sod
land, except for their smaller size,
feed on the roots of grasses and
various plants. They descend be-
low the reach of frost on the ap-
proach of winter and in May
ascend nearer to the surface and
pulpate. Where practicable, bad
ly infested sod may be plowed in
late May, thereby destroying many
Of the pupae by breaking their
cells, thus preventing the emerg-
ence of the same number of beetles.
After the beetles appear, there is
no reliable remedy, except fencing
them away from valuable plants
and hand-picking. Sometimes
they will not attack plants spray
ed with Bordeaux mixture, again
they pay no heed to any kind of
spray. While they are killed by
strong arsenicals, so many recruits
are always ready to take the
places of the destroyed beetles
that the results of poisonous sprays
are almost imperceptible. Special
y valuable plants, such as grape
vines, small fruit trees, etc., may
be enclosed in mosquito netting
for two or three weeks during the
period of swarming of the beetles,
but this method of protection is
obviously impracticable on large
scale. Newly set clusters of
grages may be made safe by en-
closing them in paper sacks. The
most practical device for use On a
fair sized scale is an umbrella
shaped collector made of cloth,
having a hole in the bottom. Be-
meath the opening in the umbrella
or funnel should be placed a pail
containing water with kerosene
floating on top. If the beetles
above the collector are sharply
disturbed by iarring, they quickly
loosen their hold and are precipi-
tated into the kerosence. 1t may
be necessary to jar three times per
day through period of ten days
or two weeks to get crop of
grapes. With IA sufficiently large
collector one should be able to Jar
rod of heavy grape row In less
than five minutes. Some prefer
collector made by tacking cloth
strips to long rectangle frames
which are laid on the ground be-
meath the grape rows. When
ready for use, the cloth is painted
with Kerosene or coal tar and jar
ring is performed by beating or
shaking the vines.
