New Ennland Pie.

Some poor dweller in the benight-
ed beyond Of Chicago asks what real
New England pie is like. It probably
will not help him to be told, but If
he means apple, it is like an essay by
Emerson iquefied with the music Of
Massenet and spiced with the cyni-
cism of Shaw; If he means pumpkin,
1t is like some of Gounod's music
heard in a landscape all sun and flow
ers. It is too early yet to describe
the mince pies of 1909, but last years

the pariah, rubbing his hands, while

Darlington deliberated for a space.
He was hard put. He did not want to
refuse this peace-offering, but nothing
would make him accept it.
This is very fine of you. Two
years ago l should have jumped at the
chance. But my agreement with my
partner makes 1t impossible. l can
not honestly break my contract with

storm to burst, for Cavenaugh was not

Are you mad?" whispered Kate. A
flush of anger swept over her at the
thought of Carrington's lightly casting
aside this evident olive branch.
Would you have me accept it?" he

might be perfectly guileless; but Car
