birthright. Those who can understand | It need no telling or explaining; others can no more understand it than those ! born without eyes can see. It is a quality opposed to no other: it can exist with any. It can co-exfst with fighting. with song. with commerce. It makes no change in other powers or qualities of the children of Adam. Those who possess it can be good or
 bad. clever or silly. heroic or mean. It
 can add force to imagination. under
 stand nature. give quiet delight or
 spiritual pain. And the bulk of those
 know it: or if they do. hardly ever speak of it.
 Athlyne had his full share of it. Be-
 ing young and strong and of a class in
 life which seldom lacks amusement he
 had not been given to self-analysis.
 But all the same. though he did not
 think of it. the force was there. In
 his present emotional crisis it brought
 the lover In him up to the Celtic ideal
 An ideal so strangely saturated with love that his whole being. his aims and ambitions, his hopes and fears. his pleasures and pains yielded place to it and for the time became merged in it. To him the whole world seemed to re- volve round Joy pivotal point. Nothing could be of any use or interest
 which did not have touch of her or lead to her. So. he wanted to know beyond the mere measure of intelllec- tual belief if Joy loved him or was on the way to doing so. When he was satisfied as to this he would be free to act; but not before.
 On the journey he had allowed the chauffeur to drive, as he wanted to think over the whole matter without fear of interruption. He had sat in the tOnneau and made from time to time notes in his pocket-book. He had now made up his mind that he would write a letter to Colonel Ogilvie telling him the whole circumstances. This he would keep in his pocket so that at the first moment when he was satis- fieG as to Joys views he could post it, In case he could not have the oppor- tunity of a personal explanation. After dinner the second night of the journey ard then in his bedroom he sat up writing the letter and then copying it out on his own note paper of which he had for the purpose brought a supply with him. When it was completed it left nothing that he could think of open to doubt. When he had got this off his mind sleep came to him.
 Next day he took the wheel himself; and that day when there was fitting opportunity the car hun1ned along merrily al top speed. Before sunset they had arrived at Bowness. There he left the car in charge of the chauf- feur. on whom he again impressed the necessity for absolute silence. The man was naturally discreet, and he saw that he was in a good situation. was satisfied on leaving him that his orders would be thoroughly carried out.
 In the forenoon of the next day he took the steamer which plies along the Ambleside. His heart beat quickly now and his eyes searched keenly all around him as he moved. He would not miss chance of seeing Joy.

The Investigation All Right.

THE HERALD at first did not think
much of the Investigation of the pri-
mary campaign for United States sena-
tor, because, while we suspected that
great sums of money had been spent by
the candidates, we did not think that
the money was corruptly used And
the investigation has not brought out
anything to the contrary. But the in
vestigation has shown the rottenness of
the game warden bureau Game War
den Stone has admitted on the witness
stand that he received great sums of the
Stephenson money, which he distributed
among some of the deputies.
The game warden bureau needs over
hauling. The people of Wisconsin pay
annually nearly a hundred thousand
dollars into that fund besides THEIR REG
ULAR TAXES and are entitled, as a mat
ter of justice, to their exclusive time and
labor in the enforcement of the game
laws
This idea of the wardens taking part
in politics is getting to be stencil, and
we hope that Governor Davidson will
take cognizance of the testimony given
by Mr. Stone and have genuine house
cleaning. If the government does not
the legislature should do something
Atany rate it is high time to do some
thing by somebody--Mer Herald,

Sierra Leone Looks Attractive in Spite

Sierra Leone-known to fame as
THE White Mans Grave"-viewed

AS to climate, the soubriquet White

daily regimental orders ran thus: Flu

and it was seldom indeed that the pa
rade was dismissed for lack of a vic

tons. Indeed, so arduous became the

was customary in the beginning for
the entire regiment and band 10 at

later on.

LESSON FOR SOUVENIR FlEND.
Captains Remarkable Action Designed
''to Avoid Scandal"

ION the slow and cheap ships" said
a purser, "the souvenir thief does no
harm; but on a famous liner like the
Ruritania, where records are broken
and tip-top prices abound, the amount
of stuff that disappears is shocking. :.
"Only things with the boats name
on go-champagne glasses, inkwells,
curling tongs, buttonhooks and so
forth. And what are we to do about
It?
I'VE had an American peeress aboard
last voyage. The day we reached New
York stewardess came to me and
said:
oh, Mr.. Meet, just seen Lady
Blanks cabin trunk, and she's taken
two of our finest silver inkwells.'
Here was a quandary, EN-? the cap

matter in the unsatisfactory way such
things are usually settled.
