CHAPTER xxxvn-(continued.)

The argument between the two men
had lasted close on half an hour. Ii
was long past 10 o'clock when al last
Louisa saw them emerging through
the lighted doorway. The next mo-
lment they were seated in the cab with
chauffeur the address OF Lord Rad
clyffe's house in Grosvenor square.
The doctor tried to be bland n po-
lite, but he was not overly successful
IN this. He did not like being opposed,
nor hearing his pronouncements COM
bated. In this case he had been forced
to give way. somewhat against his
better judgment, and all h way in the
cab he was comforting himself with
keep women away from. his patient.
and that he would in any case cut the
interview very short, and demand its
abrupt cessation cry peremptorily.
He would then be backed up by two
nurses and we must do him the jus
tice to say that he was honestly anx-
tous about his patient.
Louisa took no notice of the fash
aonable doctors efforts at conversation.
She preferred to remain quite silent for
those few minutes which elapsed be-
tween the departure from Hartford
street and the arrival at the east side
OF GrOsvenOr square When she saw
her uncle coming down the steps OF
the DOCTORS house in company with
the doctor himself, she knew that the
second victory had been o tonight:
that Sir Thomas Ryder would be al
lowed to interview Lord Radcliffe. She
had, of course. nj suspicion OF DR..
Newington's condition to the interview,
but the victory gained was an import
ant one, and for the moment she was
content.

A MERE WOMAN FIGHTING FOR
THE THING SHE LOVED.

A MERE WOMAN FIGHTING FOR
THE THING SHE LOVED.
Louisa reached the landing slightly
out of breath. She knew her way
about the old house very we'll. Two
doors now were opposite to her. One
Of these had been left ajar-intention-
ally no doubt. 1t was tho one that
gave on a smaller morning ROOM. where
IN the olden days Lord Radcylffe used
to have his breakfast and write his
private letters; the library being given
over to Mr.. Warren and to official cor
respondcnce.
From this side Of the house and
right through the silence that hung
over 1t. Louisa could hear very family
rising from the servants quarters be-
chattering and giggling. The nurses
then had not returned to their post.
With the Indifference born Of long
usage they were enjoying every minute
OF the brief respite accorded them, con-
tent to wait for the doctors call II the
patient had Immediate need of them.
Through the chink Of the door, the
red glow of a shade lamp came as q
sharp crimson streak cutting the
surrounding gloom.
Louisa pushed open the door that
was ajar n tip-toed softly in,
The little room had been transformed
for present emergencies. The desk had
been pushed aside. and a small iron
bedstead fitted up for the night nurse.
A woman's paraphernalia was scatt-
cred about on the massive early Vic
torian furniture: a comb n brush.
q cap and apron neatly folded. a cou-
pie Of long pins. Uttered the table
which Used to look so revere with its
heavy inkstand M Arm blotting pad.
The piano had been relegated into q
corner. and the portrait Of Luke which
always hung over the mantelpiece had
been removed.
The door into the bedroom was wide
open. and without any hesitation
Louisa vent in. The bed was immedi-
ately In front of her. and between It
and the hanging lamp beyond a screen
had been placed. 30 that tho upper
part Of the sick mans figure was in
visible at first In the gloom. and the
light lay like a red patch right across
the quilt at the foot.
Louisa advanced noiselessly and then
halted beside the bed. The room was

Every trace of useful. Information

young child. A rattle, or at most a

1t grows older it is very slowly and

forms of the animal kingdom. OF the
mysteries Of numbers and of Ian.

Its constant questions are for the
most part answered "humorously"
and hence incorrectly, or they are not
answered at all. This eternal "hu-
NOR" is most CALLING OF all. Why
should a human infant be such an IT.
resistible Joke? The lower animals
take their young seriously and train
them from the start with: very def
mite purpose in view. Yet their pos
sibilities are: infinitesimal as com

And we sit calmly by and enjoy the
'humor" of childhood and insist, that
the child is enjoying itself also, even
though its little soul may be thirsting
for information which is laughingly

One important point which is quite
overlooked by the upholders. of the

GOOD TIME FOR KILLING WEEDS

The hot, dry days of the summer are
best for killing weeds, especially
those which. have persistent under
ground root-stalks and are perennial
by nature. As soon as the early crops
Of hay, barley and rye are removed,
operations should be started which
will lead to the eradication Of such
weeds as wild oats, mustard, .quack-
grass and thistles. After cutting the
grain crops, it is good plan to disk
the land SO as to cover the seeds that
have. shattered out. This is especially
useful treatment for land infested
with wild oats. The disking is for the
purpose of fastening termination.
Two or three weeks after disking, the
land may be plowed at the ordinary
depth and narrowed and disked fire.
quently. Hay land can be plowed
soon after the crop is removed, and if
Canada thistles or quack-grass are
present their growth will be seriously
interrupted. Following the blowing Of
the stubble or hay land, it becomes
essential to double-disk the land once
or twice per week, depending on the
growth made by weeds, so as to pre-
vent them from establishing new root
systems. The drinking should be kept
up until about the LIST of September.
It is difficult to give time for such
operations during the busy haying and
harvesting season, but anyone who
has a patch Of thistles or quack- grass
that he wishes to eradicate can make
much more progress during the hot
weather Of July and August than at
any other season Of the year. The
effort should be made to find time if
possible. The frequent disking and
cultivation, to September LIST, will
keep the quack-grass or thistles in
subsection. By September 10th to
18th, the field may be sown to rye.
The rye grows quickly and strong
and will take possession Of the land,
during the fall season. The rye starts
early in the spring also, before most
weeds, and keeps them in check dur
ing the early part of the next year.
Such treatment, persistently followed,
will lead to comparatively clean fields
in very short time. Those who are
following regular crop rotation, and
who: are providing such crops as bar.
ley, rye and clover, that will permit
blowing and cultivation during the hot
season, are experiencing very little
difficulty in completely cleaning their
fields Of the. noxious weeds.-Andrew
Boss, MINI. Experiment Station.
