crat There was no doubt of it. From the topmost tip of her white hair to the toe of her solid shoe she was an aristocrat.
 "One of your fellow countrymen, my dear," she said to Ethel. Your Amer fcans are really tool
 "Not my Americans, Lady Creechr' said Ethel spiritedly.
 "Not our, you know. One could hardly say that, nowr" reiterated Horace.
 Almeric entered, at once laughing and beating his boot with his crop. Almost exhausted with his mirth, he threw himself into a chair and burst out:
 "Oh, say, what a go! Motor car breaks down on the way here. One of the Johnnies, German chap, dis charges the chauffeur, and the other Johnny-one of your Yankee chaps,

"K ARGESSE. sweet Countess of
 Hawcastler' the woman cried.
 "Largesse! And au revoit!
 Adieu! I leave you with your dear brotheri''
 She ran quickly up the steps with a f1irt of her parasol, and Horace took his sisters hand with tears in his eyes. Dear old sis! Dear old paIr' he said, and she turned a radiant look upon him.
 Isn't it glorious, Hoddy?'' she said with exalted tone. "Lookv' and held up the book she carried. "It's Burke's 'Peerage.' And Froissarts 'Chroni- cles'-I've been reading it all over again. The St. Aubyns were at Crecy and Agincourt, and St. Aubyn will be my name"
 ''They want it to be your name soon, sis," he answered her.
 For moment she turned away and then looked at him straight in the eyes.
 You're fond of Almeric, aren't you, Hoddy? You admire him, don't you, dear?'
 Certainly. Why, think of all he represents, sisr'
 "Ah, yes. Hoddy! Crusaders blood flows in his veins. It is the nobility that must be within him that I have plighted my troth to. .I am ready to marry him when they wishv'
 Horace sighed.

Then keep him out of the way. That's simple enough he said. "None of them, except the solicitor, need see him."
 Almost in burst like an eruption there came an uproar outside the gates beyond the hotel-wild laughter, riot oUS cheering and the notes of the tar entella played by mandolins and gui- tar, then more shouts and cheers and cries of Bravo, Americana" and "Yanka Doodaw Horace ran to the gates, but they were closed, and the uproar continued. Ethel stood by one of the tables, amazement written on her features, and turned to her brother as he came back shaking his head.
 What is that?" she asked tremu- lously- Lady Creech, all in futter, entered from the hotel. At a glance one would set her down for an artsto-

 He laughed long and loudly.
 'I went up to this Yankee chap, l mean to say-he was pulling and tug ging along. you see-and I said, There you are, three of you in a row, aren't you?'' meaning him and the two don Keys, you see, Ethel, and all he could answer was that he picked the best company in sight No meaning to it.

''It will be as soon as the settlement is made and arranged. It will take about all your share of the estate, sis, but it's worth t-a hundred and fifty thousand pounds"

 She smiled at him fondly.
 "But isn't it good that the batter made his pile, as the Americans say, and let us come over here while we were young to find the nobler things, Hoddy-the nobler thingsT
 'The nobler things the nobler things! Why, sis, when old Hawcas- tie dies I'll be saying offhand, you know, My sister, the Countess of Flaw castle "-
 For a moment Ethel remained thoughtful and then turned to her brother.

 'WeIl, the governor himself was rather raw, you know This is prob ably harmless old chap, easy to han dle."
 'I wish I knew. I shouldn't like Al mertc's family to think we had queer connections of any sort, and he might turn out to be quite shockingly Amer ican. IT couldn't bear that, Hoddyr' ~ There was a note of genuine pathos in her voice, and her brother respond ed instantly:

 Horace las ghed cheerfully.-
 @T have doubt of it. If he has the slightest sense of duty toward my sister he'll be the first to welcome the alliance, won't heT'
 ''Then when he and my solicitor come they can have an evening together over lot of musty papers, and the thing will be done. Again, my boy, well come you to our family. God bless your
 He wrung Horace's hand again and turned away as if to hide his emotion, but really to wink at the countess. I'm overpowered, you know-real ly overpowered, you know" stammered Horace, flaming himself desperately with his hat.
 Come, Almeric," said the earl, and as the youthful heir to his house arose languidiy he sidled close to the count ess and whispered in her ear:
 "Let him know it's q hundred and fifty thousand"
 Then he and Almertc went up the steps into the hotel, leaving Horace and the countess gazing at each other delightedly. She crossed over to him impu1sfvely and, taking both his hands again, said My friend. I am happy for you" "Think of iti" said Horace joyously. Tn a fortnight at the most dear old Ethel will be the Hon. Mrs. St. Aubyn, future Countess of Hawcastler' Yes" replied the countess, with drawing her hands and picking up her paxasol, 'and there is but the little ar engagement. of the settlement between your advocate and Lord Hawcastle's. But you Americans-you laugh at such things. You are big, so big, like your countryr
 Horace followed her across the ter race to the wall
 '.Ah, believe me, dear countess" he said, 'sthe great world-your world, countess - has thoroughly alienated me-"
 Tho countess turned her shapely head and looked at him admiringly and with a touch of irony at the sur prise she was about to give him. "Ah, you retain one quality. You are careless, you are free" and she laid her right hand upon his arm, and Hor- ace thrilled at the intimate touch.
 
 those things I am American, but in others I fancy I should be thought something else, shouldn't I?' She laughed openly at him now, but earnestly withal, and said:
 You are a debonair man of the world, and yet you are still American in that you are abominably rich. The settlement-Such matter as that, over which a Frenchman, an Italian, might hesitate-you laugh. Such matter as f150, ,000-you set 1t aside, you laugh. You say, oh, yes; take itr" For . moment she feared that Hor- ace would fall over the low parapet, so white did his face become and then so flushed, but the boy was game all through. The generations of simple Indiana stock came to his rescue, and he steeled himself with an effort and replied quietly:
 "A hundred and fifty thousand pounds! Why, that's seven hundred | and fifty thous-I say, countess, she couldn't use the money to better ad- vantageT'
 There was real admiration in the Frenchwoman's glance this time, for she had lost none of the little bypIay, and she admired the courage of the youngster. So she said: My friend, how wise you arei' As she spoke she turned in time to see Ethel come down the steps of the hotel with book beneath her arm and ran to her, clasping her in her arms and kissing her.

The aggressive M. D. Of Brooten,
DR.. Stewart Leech, is doing some
effective work in combating the
sale of liquor to Indians in North
ern Minnesota, and also the shame
full traficking in Indian lands.
Uncle Sam is more sollcitious about
the welfare of his wards, the Red
Men, than he is about his own sons.
The federal laws are very strict in
regard to furnish ing them with
''fire water" The report is that
not only this prohibition is shame.
fully disregarded, but that a regu.
lar business has sprung up ir
traticking in Indian lands. The Rec
Man has been up against it since
the very first time that he touched
the pen snd signed away his right

The Trader has always been at hanc
to prey upon his necessities anc
drive hard bargains. The interior
Department should get busy ant
