GENERAL REMARKS. ~
When doubt exists as to whether
ones condition or circumstances
allow exemption from the precept OF
fast and abstinence, counsel should be
asked from confessors or pastors, who
are the authoritative Interpreters of the
law, and who are even empowered. IN
special cases, for good and sufficient
reasons, indicated IN Catholic theology,
to commute the precept of fast ana
abstinence to other penitential work.
In enjoining upon the faithful fast
!, and abstinence, Holy Church makes a
practical application Of the evangelical
law of self.denial, of which. the
Savior ana his apostles were, by ex-
ample and by word. such eminent
teachers. Without sell. denial there is
no Christianity. Indeed, without self
denial there is no natural morality.
The man who has not acquired by
habit the power of selt-restraint will
not be victorious over. sin, amid the
) storms and temptations OF life which
| all men must encounter. =
The observance of the fast and
abstinence prescribed by the Church

SYNOPSIS.

Archibald Terhune, a popular and In
dolent young bachelor of London, re-
ceives news that he has been made heir
an income Of $4,000 a year, on condition
that he becomes engaged to be married
within ten days Failing to do so the
legacy will go to n third cousin in Amer
lea. The story opens at Castle Wyckoff,
where Lord Vincent and his wife, friends
of Terhune, are discussing plans to find
him wife within the prescribed time. 1t
seems that Lady Vincent is one of seven
persons named Agatha, all close glrlhood
chums. She decides to invite two Of them
to the castle and have Archie there as
one of the guests. Agatha Sixth strikes
Archie as a handpainted beauty. Agatha
First Is a breezy American girl. Lady
Vincent tells her husband that Agatha
Sixth already cares for Archie. He gains
from Agatha Sixth the admission that
she cares for him, but will require a
months time fully to make up her mind.
Agatha First, neglected by Terhune, re-
celves attentions from Leslie Freer. Four
days of the precious time have passed
when Terhune is called to London on
business. Agatha First. on the plea of
sickness, excuses herself from a motor
trip planned by the Vncents. Later they
zee Agatha First picking flowers with a
strange man. The Vincents discuss
Agatha's seeming dupliclty. The follow
Ing day the party visits the ruins OF an
old convent Terhune continues his at
tentions to Agatha Sixth.

CHAPTER VIII.

1t was on the return trip to the cas-
tie that found an opportunity to talk
confidentially with Terhune. He and
l were walking home, as seven was
rather a crowd in the machine and we
wanted the exercise.
What in thunder do you mean by
it?" / demanded when | had finished
setting his erratic and inconsiderate
conduct before him in It's true light
excepting, of course, the details of
the incident of the automobile in the
wood, and our later discovery of the
ence to this little episode and the
suspicious of Dearest and myself in
regard to his connection with 1t, |
had felt obliged to omit. We had de-
cided not to mention the subject to
him as we had after all only circum.
stantial evidence upon which to base
our belief that Terhune had been
Agatha First's companion that day.
For, after all, the checked coat we
found In his closet might only have
resembled the one saw In the car,
and he might easily have owned one
of the kind without our ever having
seen 1t. Our friendship with Arch
was too dearly priced by US to risk
falsely accusing him. And then
couldn't help feeling that after all
had rather surprised them when ] had
come upon them in the woods, and in
seeing what was not meant to have
seen, had rather played the spy. how
ever inadvertently It might have been
done. And 1 did not relish making
use Of information so obtained. 1t
was better, much fairer to Arch, we
decided, to act simply as II my dis
covery had never been.
Here you've gone and asked us to
help you." / went on, "in the matter
Of getting a fortune, not to mention a
wife, and when it's made as plain as
It could well be that Agatha Sixth is
the girl for you and you admit fancy.

A Chinese WEDDING.

A Chinese marriage is all ceremony
no talk, no levity, and much crying.
The solemnity Of a funeral prevails.
After the exchange of presents the
bride is dressed with much care. A
feast Is spread upon a table, to which
the blushing bride ia led by five Of
her best female friends. They are
seated at the table, but no one eats.
The utmost silence prevails. when
finally the mother leads off in a cry,
the maids follow and the bride echoes
in the chorus. Then all the brides
maids leave the table, and the discon.
solate mother takes a seat beside the
chair Of state. where the bride sits.
The bridegroom now enters, with
four of his best men. The men pick
up the Throne on which the bride sits
and, preceded by the bridegroom, form
in procession and walk around the
room or into an adjoining parlor, sig
nifying that he is carrying her away
to his own home The guests then
throw rice at the happy couple.

love with the marplot, and so far as
she could see-and this in spite of her
best efforts-the poor girl was des-
tined to lose him after all! o, it
was really too bad. Terhune was
too, too trying! l must really speak
to him and find out what he meant
by playing fast and loose like that! I
give you my word I've seldom heard
her go on so about anything. She
really felt distressed by the unaccount-
able and rather mysterious color our
matrimonial project had assumed, and
was much concerned for Agatha
Sixth's happiness. The other Agatha
we did not seem to be as interested
In somehow. as she had neither hus-
band or fortune at stake with which
to enlist our special sympathies.
After all, Wilfred," she said, heav-
ing deep sigh, "the course of true
love never did run smooth"
Nor yet the course of true match
making!" l answered and we strolled
down the side of the little hill where
the picnic had been to go and look
for wild flowers ourselves.

what thought of him then and there,
Miss Lawrence looked so forlorn and
wretched as she watched them disap-
pear into the woods together.
"The beast!" / began, "he ought
to be" But Dearest interrupted me,
and realized 1t was because the
young lady was still standing within
earshot. Don't. Wilfred!" she said.
Agatha doesn't mind bit-do you,
dear?" And she smiled confidently
and encouragingly into the other
womans face. 1t was the required
tonic evidently, for Miss Agatha Law
rence-sometimes called Agatha
Sixth-at once controlled her CULVER
ing lip with a display of self-com-
mand upon which inwardly compli-
lean girl, think, that fine self-con-
troll, and something that l admire
greatly in my wife.
"Of course not" she replied stead
ly, and turning upon the bewildered
Freer. who was standing by, with the
sweetest possible smile, asked him
If he would mind hunting wild flow
erS with her. The invitation, |
need not say, was accepted with
servie gratitude by that undis-
and impressionable young
man. Like the little dog under the
table, Freer was never too proud to
partake of the crumbs.
My wife and left alone she broke
at once into lamentation Her plans
were all going astray, she declared.
Matchmaking was perfectly horrid
and she would never, no, never, I'M
dertake 1t again. AS for Archibald,
she gave him up. She couldn't under
stand 1t, at all. Why couldn't he
make up his mind which girl he |
wanted and stick to It? A man who
only had ten days in which to choose
l wife had no business to go on as
ne did. Why, she'd never get him
married, and he'd lose his fortune!
But that wasn't the most important
point to be considered by any means.
What bothered her most was that |
Door Agatha Lawrence had fallen in
