about it; he pointed out on the map
how close land could be purchased or
settled upon, some within IL miles OF
Littleton, some within 20 or 30 miles
of Denver and others near Byers and
all kinds of hailroad land on the Union
Pacific Mr. Brown of Deertrail was
there as one witness of the IS fami-

SYNOPSIS.

Archibald Terhune, a popular and In
dolent young bachelor of London. re-
ceives news that he has been made heir
TO the estate Of his Aunt Georgiana, with
IN income of $4,000 year, on condition
that he becomes engaged to be married
within ten days. Failing to do SO the
legacy will go to third cousin in Amer
lea. The story opens at Castle Wyckof,
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 girlhood
rhums. 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-
ceives 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 Vincents. Later they
see Agatha First picking flowers with a
strange man. The Vincents discuss
Agatha's seeming duplicity. The follow
ing day the party visits the ruins of an
old convent. Terhune continues his at
tentions to Agatha Sixth. Then suddenly
he transfers his attentions to Agatha
First. Vincent scores him for his appar-
ent f1ckleness

STORE ROOTS OVER WINTER
Careful Treatment Is Needed to In
sure Beauty Of Plants Next Sea-
son-Some Suggestions.

When frost has cut down the glory
Of the flaming Gamma, has withered
the late blooming dahlia, has scared
the huge leaves of caladiums, and has
left scarcely memory of the rich
coloring of gloxinias, it is time to
think of their winter welfare.
The roots of all these plants need
careful treatment If they are to give
of their beauty next season.
Remove the tops of the roots that
are to be saved, especially If they
have been badly nipped with frost, as
the decay may spread to the bulbs
These may be left to ripen in the
earth for a few days and should be
dug on a bright, sunny day.
Dry in the sun for several days, or
II the weather be cold, spread on the
floor of a sunny room and cover at
night with blankets to protect from
frost. When dry, shake off the loose
earth and pack in boxes of sand, pa
per bags, or on the shelves of frost
proof cellars, according to the nature
of the roots.
Caladium bulbs can be easily win
tered in dry, frost-proof cellar. The
chief danger is decay of the center
shoot. Keep sharp watch for this
and, if it is noticed, pull off the de
cayed parts down to where it is
sound. Store in -four bags or in boxes
of sand.

A SPARKLING Novelist.

A New York editor, at the Century
club, told a story about Robert w.
Chambers, the well-known young nov
elist.
Chambers went one summer" he
said, ito Sunapee with his brother. AT
the Ben Mere Inn the aristicratic old
ladies' in rocking chairs, seated on the
cool piazza that overlooks the lake.
were very much stirred UP by Mr..
Chambers arrival. Whenever he ap.
peared they gathered about him and
talked books.
"Chambers was always ready for
them. He had always on his lips some
witty saying to double them up.
"tOh, Mr. Chambers cried an old
lady one day, admire Lorraine" 80
much! I've read it eight times!'
Madam answered Chambers. with
a bow, I would rather hear you say
you'd bought eight copies"

CHAPTER TX.

It was the very last evening of the
time that had been allotted Terhune
in which to select a wife. The fol-
lowing day was to see Solicitor Barnes
at luncheon with us at one o'clock
precisely, Dearest having invited him
in accordance with Mrs. James re-
quest that he should be the referee
present at the house when the last
minute of Terhune's ten days of grace
should expire, and his expected pres
ence at the meal brought 1t home to
us what a decisive one 1t must of
necessity be. Decisive was indeed the
right word to use in connection with
that meal! For If old Arch was still
free and unbalanced when he sat down
to 1t, he might as we'll never have
been nephew of his aunt as far as in.
heriting that aunt's property was con-
cerned.
Dearest was inclined, being optimis-
tic enough to hope for a consumma
ton of his engagement to Agatha
Sixth before that time-to make of the
luncheon a sort Of marriage-feast in
honor of that event, and was already
planning famous ices and cakes of n
hymeneal nature. But Arch seemed
not to view the approach of the cru
cial day with such a light heart. His
thoughts at dinner that night were so
absent, in fact, as to force one to con-
clude that the spectre of his aunt's
third cousin seated upon the veranda
of the house in Australia with pos
sessive feet on the railing had be-
come his familiar spirit
1t was this apparent anxiety Of his
and his feverish devotion to Agatha
Sixth that utterly unprepared me for
the unfortunate denouement later.
The evening had ended at last and
Dearest and l had succeeded in start
ing a general move toward retiring
for the night. We had been playing
bridge-that is, the two Agathas had
with Terhune and the inevitable
Freer, while ms wife and l stood by

Burglars nothing!" answered.
ITS one of the dogs, say. Besides,
if it were burglar that's all the
more reason why you should go back!"
"And leave you to be killed all
alone? Never!"
Sometimes, l admit it with sort of
fond regret, my wife is unreasonable.
1T wouldn't help any If you were

you'll catch cold. It's chilly down
here. and 1 want you to go back"
She caught the tone Of authority in
my voice, tone l seldom use toward
her, and fell to pleading with me.
20 Freddy, can't stay?" she
begged. Its so exciting! See! I've
brought you pistol and here's an UNI.
brella for mel" She came close up to
me as she spoke and the CLEAN Of
starlight from ire hall windows fell
upon her supplicating face and the
old blunderbuss she had taken down
from some wall and carried In her
right hand, and the other weapon Of
defense she had mentioned in the
other.
I laughed, If one may be said to
laugh in whisper, and Rugged her
for her spirit. armament and all. Then
we turned to the folding doors again.
Beneath them and through the crack
between a faint light showed.
Making himself pretty much at
home for a burglar to light the lamp"
I remember thinking. And l slowly
and cautiously widened the aforesaid
crack until space of some two or
three inches wide was obtained, the
doors rolling back softly on each side
without any noise at all. Then we
looked in, my wife making 1t possible
for us to do this at one and the same
time by kneeiing on the floor at my
side, and thus obtaining chink to
look through all to herself.
It was lucky she was so near the
floor, l thought afterward, or she
would certainly have fallen upon it
with surprise when she beheld the
thing our eyes asked of us to believe.
For there at the far end of the draw
ing room dimly distinguishable by the
light of lamp on the table, turned
low, was Agatha First. We recog.
nized her even in that light without
fail, dressed as she had been that eve
ming for dinner, and standing with
his back toward us and his arm around
her was a man in an attitude unmis-
takably lover-like and possessive. And
through the hush of that. late hour
the low murmur of their absorbed
voices penetrated the Utmost recess of
our staggered consciousness. Agatha
First and a man meeting in secret at
that hour!,
What could 1t mean? Who could it
he? The surprise of my discovery in
the woods the day of our trip to North
bury was as nothing to this! But
alaaI We knew only too well this
tins who the man was, and without
requiring any further proof such as
we had had on the other occasion
when we had waited until the discov-
cry of the checked coat before we felt
sure. In this instance we neither of
us doubted for moment the identity
of Miss Endicott's companion in her
equivocal position.
Freer had said good night and gone
on down to the village at ten o'clock
when the party had broken up. 1t
could not be he. Then it must OF
necessity be Terhune. Indeed, what
other man would have the opportu-
nifty for such a meeting? Who else
was staying at the castle?

GOOD ROADS ARE beneficial
Comprehensive System Would Great
Iy Lessen Cost of Transportation
Of Products.
fBy JAMES q. HARR1soN.)

(By JAMES q. HARRISON)
A comprehensive system OF GOOD
roads would confer many substantial
benefits upon the farmers OF the
United States. Better roads would
greatly lessen the cost Of transporting
produce to market, and as soon as
the farmers learn how to make good
roads, and make them, the greater
will be their profits.
When farmers learn that on each
mile Of highway, three rods wide, ap-
proximately $4,000 tons Of water fall
annually, they will begin to appre-
ciate the necessity Of highway drain
age, and learn that hard road can
not be made out of mud. No plan Of
road work, no amount Of labor and
machinery, will make good dirt road
that will stay good until some plan is
adopted to get rid of the water.
1t has been satisfactorily demon
strated that fairly gratifying road
for hauling heavy loads should be
rounded up in the center, so that
water may quickly flow into bitches
at the side and be carried off through
properly constructed channels. Gull
verts should be provided to conduct
water under the roadway and thus
prevent outlying the roadway with
running water.
Nothing will give farmers better
ideas of how good road should be
built, or show them the losses they
are sustaining travelling to market
over poor roads, than Farmers Bull
letin No. IS, which may be had free
Of cost by writing a postal card to
the department of agriculture, Wash
ington, D. c., and asking for it. 1t is
one of the most practical helps
farmer can have in solving the trans
portation question in the country.
Good roads help both the farmers
and the city people. Therefore any
proposition which looks to endowing
the country with good roads is en-
titled, if not to acceptance, at all
events to a respectful hearing.
