You don suppose for a moment, 1
hope, that a girl like Louisa would al
low her mind to dwell on such horrors.
Mysterious crimes in strange cities
and in London, too, for a matter of that
are, alas! of far too frequent occur
renee to be quite as startling as they
should be.
A day or two later, Louisa Harris
and her aunt, Lady Ryder, crossed over
to England. They had spent five weeks
in Italy and one in Brussels, not with
a view to dreaming over the beauties
treasures collected in the museums Of
Brussels, but because Lady Ryder had
had a bronchial catarrh which she could
not shake off and so her doctor had or
dered her a thorough change. Bellag-
gio was selected, and Louisa accompa-
MED her. They stayed at the best ho-
tells both In Bellaggio and in Brussels,
where Lady Ryder had several friends
whom she wished to visit before she
went home.
Nothing whatever happened that
should not have happened: everything
was orderly and well managed; the
courier n the maid saw to tickets and
to luggage. to hotel rooms and sleeping
compartments. It was obviously their
mission in life to see that nothing I'M
toward or unexpected happened, but
only the obvious.
IL was clearly not their fault that
Miss Harris had seen a cab in which
an unknown mar happened to have
been murdered.
Louisa, with a view to preventing her
aunt from going to sleep after dinner
and thereby spelling her nights rest,
had told her of the incident which she
had witnessed in the Boulevard Water
100, n Lady Ryder was genuinely
shocked. She vaguely felt that her
niece had done something u%nladylike
and odd. which was so unlike Louisa.

Title Wouldn't Save Him.
From the London

brOT1 ING LONDON Opinion.
A certain gentleman who had acquired
riches rather quickly purchased an estate
on the banks of the River Clyde which
adjoins those of Lord Blantyre and Sir
Charles Bine-Renshaw. Strolling through
his ;.ace one day he CHANGED to go too
far and was accosted by a burly Scotch
gane-keeper, who in language more
forcible than polite ordered him off the
grounds. Remonstrance only produced
more .~langwidge" from the burly one.

$4,000 AMERICANS GO
TO CANADA TN 1911.
THE YEAR 1912 WILL SHOW A
GREAT INCREASE.

In a report OF the House Committee
(Washington) appears the following:
Canada offers a three-year home
stead upon good land, easily reclaimed
and cultivated, with six months leave
OF absence each year and most lenient
regulations"
All or which is true n it is now
the part Of the careful reader to con
slider the opportunities that exist in
Western Canada which, in addition to
the above, are attractive features.
The evidence of these is found, in the
letters contributed by some Of the
settlers. For instance: A former Min
nesotan, writing from Warner, South
ern Alberta, speaks Of that district.
but what he says, applies generally to
all Of Southern Alberta. He says:
II have sex six crops, four OF them
were first class, n of them a very
good crop, and the other a poor crop.
Government statistics for the last if
teen years show that this country has
averaged about fifteen or sixteen
inches OF moisture. In 1910 there was
only seven inches, and in 1911 twenty
two inches. The 1909 crop was about
as good as I have seen in this coun-
try and we had about twelve inches Of
moisture, SO that I am thoroughly con-
vinced that with normal conditions,
that is, from twelve to fifteen inches
of moisture, and with the natural In
crease Of population and immigration,
that Southern Alberta will be one Of
the very best mixed farming districts
in the world. We have good soil, good
water, and a good climate, and alto
gether just as desirable a country to
liys in as Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, or
Wisconsin"
Hundreds of letters are on file from
former American settlers, which give
good aso why the Western Can.
ada lands are being settled SO rapidly.
Full particulars can be had of any Ca
madam Government Agent, who will
furnish literature and give low rate
certificates. Excursions are being run
daily.

Mhan Women Carved.

In George LIS reign it was the bound
en- duty Of the mistress Of country
house to carve for her guests. Ell
Quette demanded 1t of her. and no one
might relieve her of her arduous task.
not even the master To the latter was
only assigned the easy labor of passing
the bottle and looking on while each
joint was placed in turn before his
wife or daughter. as the case might be
and by her rapidly manipulated. Cary.
ing became one OF the branches of a
good feminine education, and there
were professional carving masters who
taught the young ladies. Lady Mary
Wortley Montagu took lessons in the
art three times a week and on her
fathers public days made a practice
OF having her own dinner an hour or
two beforehand. A guest who did not
receive his portion from his hostess
own fair hands would have consider
ed himself much aggrieved.-London

Strict German Discipline.

German discipline in the army is
the strictest Of any nation in the
world" said a man who has expo
rienced It Every German boy must
serve a definite period In the army.
He can buy his way out in six months
IL he has money. but the richest must
serve that period. The first thing told
a recruit when he enters the barracks
is that he does not know how to walk
That information startles him. because
naturally he believes he had learned
to walk years before. A drillmaster
gets him in a courtyard. and for a
week. often a month. the poor recruit
is drilled in walking alone Then he
gets another course. and the longest
practice marches OF regiment are al
most equal to the stress Of actual war.

he lives in constant danger Of rock salt

Of the watchdog around the corner as

frequent social phenomenon than the

stranger. who. however. smiled and
remarked GIVE it to the first beggar

Tissot, the Famous French Painter,
and His Critic.
An interesting story is told OF
Jacques Tissot, the great French paint
er. While in England he painted a
beautiful religious picture and. meet
ing countrywoman. asked her opinion
Of his work Its a chef d'oeuvre,"
she replied, giving a remarkably just
and detailed appreciation of the vari-
GUS merits Of the really splendid paint
ing.
Are you satisfed?" asked a friend
Tissot answered in the negative. He
entirely reprinted his picture. working
night and day.
When finished he sent again for his
fair critic, who pronounced 1t ad-
mirable and remained silently admir-
ing 1t with smiling criticism.
Are you satisiedT' asked the friend
again when the lady had departed.
NO" replied the artist. and he set to
work for the third time.
When the Parisienne saw the new
painting she gazed at 1t for some mo-
ments with evident emotion and then
without a word sank softly to her
knees and began to pray.
Are you satisfied now" whispered
the friend. and Tissot said Yes

Love may always be right, but II
can be SO influenced as to be seem
ingly a mistake. The marriage took
place and Fred Dillingham; was ostra-
cized. He was not kindly welcomed
in the other stratum. II there is gulf
between the rich man and the work
tngman the latter resents intrusion
as much as the former. There was
love, but after few months it was
Influenced from both sides. Both hus-
band and wife were made to fear that
a grave mistake had been made. They
fought away the idea and sought to
hold their love, but that brought irri-
tations and vexations and eliminated
in misunderstanding and quarrels.
After two years there was a separa-
tion. Neither really desired it. 1t
was what the gossips had predicted,
and what they strove to bring about.
There was more sorrow than anger
when the young husband turned his
back on wife and infant year old
and went out into the world as a
wanderer The wife went back to
her fathers cottage, but not to strug'
gle with poverty. The husband been
generous to her.
Five Ions years, and Fred Dilling'
ham had not been heard Of AS an
outlaw w.thout family, whom should
he write to and why? At three years
of age the child, who had been named
Patty, wondered in her childish way
why she hadn't papa. At five she
demanded to know. At six she stood
before the embarrassed mother in in
dignation and threatened to go out
and find one.
And at last the wanderer had re-
crossed the sea and headed for his
home. He was tired and weary and
lonely. Home? But he had none!
He had left it when he left wife and
baby. This struck him like a sudden
blow, though he had all along realized
1t in a general way. No home-no
wife-no child! That was why he
had left the train and taken lodgings.
He had no place to CO. With money
In his pockets, he was a tramp.
And to know that Christmas was at
hand, and to hear the jingle of sleigh
