Episode.

EPiSCOiC.
Fortune had Immediately returned
from the bazaars. And a kind OF tor
por blanketed her mind, usually so
fertile and active. For time the
process Of the evolution of thought
was denied her; she tried to think, but
there was an appalling lack of continu-
ity, of broken threads. 1t was like one
of those circumferential railways; she
travelled, but did not get anywhere.
Ryanne had told her too much for his
own sake, but too little for hers. She
sat back in the carriage. inert and
listless, and indeterminedly likened
her condition to driftwood in the ebb
and flow of beach-waves. The color
and commotion of the streets were
no longer absorbed; it was as if she
were riding through emptiness,
through the unreality Of dream. She
was oppressed and stifed, too; harb-
niger of storms.
Mechanically she dismissed the car
riage at the hotel, mechanically she
went to her room, and in this semi
conscious mood sat down in a chair,
and there Georges wish found her,
futilely. Oh, there was one thing
clear, clear as the sky outside. All

beating. What had the love-lorn fool
said to the child?
He said that he was not good
man, and that you tolerated him be-
cause he ran errands for you. What
kind of errands?"
Mrs. Chedsoye did not know wheth-
er to laugh or take the child by the
shoulders and shake her soundly. HE
was laughing when he said that. Err
rands? One would scarcely call 1t
that"
why did you renew the acquaint-
ance with Mr.. Jones, when you knew
that you never intended paying back
that loan?"
Here was question, Mrs. Chedsoye
realized, from the look Of the child,
that would not bear evasion.
What makes you think never In
tended to repay him."
Fortune laughed 1t did not sound
grateful in the mothers ears.
Mother, this is crisis; it can not
be met by counter-questions nor by
flippancy. You know that you did
not intend to pay him. What 1 de-
mand to know is, why you spoke to
him again, SO affably, why you seemed
so eager to enter into his good graces
once more. Answer that"
Her mother pondered. For once she
was really att loss. The unexpected
ness of this phase caught her off her
balance. She saw one thing wildly,
regretfully: she had missed valuable
point in the game by not adjusting
her play to the growth Of the child,
who had, with the phenomenal sud
denness which still battles the psy-
biologists, stepped out OF girlhood
into womanhood, all in day. What
fool she had been not to have left
the child at Mentone!
Il am waiting" said Fortune. There
are more questions; but l want this
one answered first"
This is pure insolence!"
'Insolence Of a kind, yes"
and refuse to answer have
some authority still"
Not so much, mother, as you had
yesterday. You refuse to explain?"
Absolutely"
Then | shall judge you without
mercy" Fortune rose, her eyes blaz-
ing passionately. She caught her
mother by the wrist, and she was the
stronger of the two. Cant you I'M

"Not till | have done. Out of the
patchwork, squares have been formed.
What of the men who used to come
to the villa and play cards with Uncle
George, the men who went away and
never came back? What Of your long

and upon another you came back? Did
you think that ! was a fool that
had no time to wonder over these
things? You have never tried to
make a friend of me; you have al
ways done your best to antagoniZe me.
Did you hate my father so much that,
when his death put him out of range,
you had to concentrate 1t upon me?
My father!" Fortune roughly flung
aside the arm who knows about
him, who he was, what he was, what
he looked like? AS child, l used to
ask you, but never would you speak.
All l know about him nurse told me.
This much has always burned my
mind: you married him for wealth
that he did not have. What do you
mean by this simple young man across
the CORRIDOR"
Mrs. Chedsoye was pale, and the ar
tistic touch of rouge upon her cheeks
did not disguise the pallor. The true
evidence lay in the whiteness Of her
nose. Never in her varied life had
she felt more helpless, more impotent.
To be wild with rage, and yet to be
o1nrfn0SC ~
that mental buoyancy, which had al
ways given her the power to return
a volley in kind, had deserted her.
Moreover, she was distinctly alarmed.
This little fool, with a turn of her
hand, might send lettering into ruins
the skillful planning of months.
Are you in love with him?" aiming
to gain time to regather her scattered
thoughts.
"Love?" bitterly. 81 am in fine
mood to love any one My question,

toni"
81 refuse absolutely to answer you!"
Anger was first to reorganize its
forces; and Mrs. Chedsoye felt the
heat of 1t run through her veins. But,
oddly enough, it was anger directed
less toward the child than toward her
own palpable folly and oversight.
Then l shall leave you. l will go
out into the world and earn my own

emily, ''if you had but given me little
kindness, you do not know how loyal

down upon 1t with his two hands. A

all rot, he perfectly knew, this wish

sun-warmed, sun-gilded space an ar
dent wish, sent it speeding round the
fast as light it travelled, for no sooner
had it sprung from his mind than it
entered the window of a room across
the corridor. Whether the window was
open or shut was Of no Importance
whatever. Such wishes penetrated and
went through all obstacles. And this
one touched Fortunes eyes, her hair,
her lips; it caressed her in a thousand
happy ways. But, alas! such wishes
are without temporal power
Fortune never knew. She sat in a
chair, her fingers locked tensely, her
eyes large and set in gaze, her lips
compressed, her whole attitude one of
impotent despair.

WHAT 1T COST ONE MAN TO
SHUN THE STORES AT HOME
When He Ran For Office the Local
Merchants Banded Together
and Defeated Him.

A citizen Of means in town in the
west. more independent than tactful,
often boosted to his neighbors OF his
"shrewdness" IN purchasing the ncces-
saries Of life. Ills plan was to Have
supplies shipped from 3 nearby city's
stores that Advertised the merchandise
in common demand ar unusually low
prices. There came time VIXEN this
independent ana thrifty @ citizen as
PRED to political Office, and, urged on
by the i'll advice of his friends. he an
nounced himself as candidate.
The storekeepers of his town had
never seen cent of his money, and
yet their support was sought by this
ambitious citizen. Had he mended his
ways then and there and begun buying
at home the result might have been
different. But his failure to do this
was his great mistake. He kept on
patronizing out Of town merchants.
When the votes were counted the
candidate was swamped by his oppo-
nent. Was the victor disciple Of home
trade? Isn't that an unnecessary ques-
ton? Did the fact that he practiced
the principle of home trade weigh in
his favor as a candidate? Another I'M
necessary question.

day be counting the votes Of your fell

A bulletin of the Connecticut State
college emphasizes the danger OF the
introduction of weeds by the use OF
feeds made up in part or in whole OF
grain screenings and similar materials,
which, as a rule, contain large
amount Of weed seeds. These screen
ings vary good deal In quality. Thus
an analysis recently made OF wheat
screenings showed about SO per cent
of flax and shrunken cereal, 10 per
cent OF foxtail, 8 per cent of bindwced
and pigweed, Is per cent Of weed seeds
of other species and p per cent OF
dust broken seed and sand.
Even such q mixture is much better
than many others which often contain
very little if any wheat or fax. Ex-
aminations of Il large number of feeds
in which such materials We're used
showed that every pound of each Of
these mixtures brings to the farm from
5000 to $4,000 seeds. of which in some
cases 100, in other more than $1,000,
are alive"
Among the weeds of which seeds
We're found in the feeds were false fox
tails or bottle grasses, pigweed or

TOO MUCH OF ONE THING
INJURIOUS TO THE GARDEN
Many Patches Fail Because Same Crops
Are Planted Year After Year-Ro-
tation Tends to Even UP Soil.

Many gardens fail because the same
crops are planted year after year. The
soil will not prosper under this treat
ment. Certain elements used by the
plants grown become almost extinct
This calls for expensive fertilizers to
keep up the production or the soil must
be used for something else. This may
be prevented by proper rotation OF
crops, gardeners at the Kansas Agri-
cultural college say.
The land is treated differently under
rota ton, the faults of one year beng
corrected by good management in an
other year. BY this method no one
element Of plant food is exhausted.
Rotation tends to even up the soil.
One crop leaves the land in good phys
zeal condition for another. 1t gives it
humus, which all crops must have. In
some years green crops will be turned
under. This gives the soil almost inn
mediate available plant food and u
larger supply of nitrogen.
The gardener should have a plan Of
rotation mapped out which will repeat
every nine, eleven. thirteen or any 9th
or certain number Of years according
to the extent Of the field and the time
desired. In doing this the same
amount Of all vegetables may be
grown one year with another. The
one requirement Of this plan would be
to have the plots Of ground the same
size.
AS an example Of rotation, potatoes
may be followed by beans, peas or
cabbage. In general, one crop should
be followed by another of different ma
ture. 1t is not necessary to change
the plots every year. Put one plot in
sweet corn, say, for two years, follow
ed by two years of peas. This should
be followed by two years of potatoes.
In this manner the weeds that become
so obnoxious under same cultivation
will be checked or destroyed.
