CHAPTER XXI. (contInued.)

"Oi" Just a gasp. you know; and
my jolly cheeks stung as from dash

knew about the pajamas. too!
half rose from my chair.
II assure you, sir" l began stiff
ly.
His fussy shrug checked me. mo,
no, we'll Just have to wait till Jack
gets up. The only thing I'm anxious
about is the scenery and the view
points; and l Just know If Francis
went with you. you would never see
any of it."
BY Jove, thought that quite likely
enough, but of course it was devilish
personal OF him to say SO. And dash

they could see her? was Just going
to suggest this. when he went on:
THE fact is" He hesitated, then
ficked his ashes with sigh. "Oh,
well, since I've said as much as |
have, / should go further. ! suppose.
It's only fair not to leave you in the
dark, especially as my daughter was
enthusiastically telling me Just now
-pufr-"that she already looks on
you as one of the family"
by Jove. did she though?"
hitched to the front OF the chair.
How dev-I mean how"
He nodded. And 80 / feel justified
in talking to you frankly-not that
want to prejudice you against Frau
els. you understand, but Just because"
n
won't dol" And he looked at me
steadily.
Something like a sharp pain struck
through me. Again-and this time
from her own father! just sat there
kind of frozen, you know. except that
I could feel the smile slowly loosen
ing in my face. He moved to a seat
nearer.
.I don't like to seem to be dis
paraging my own flesh and blood, Mr..
Lightnut," he proceeded graveiy. but
the truth is Francis is the only one
of my children that gives me any
anxiety"
"Oh!" felt myself shrink together,
my knees slanting away from him.
NY dashed monocle hung limp.
He angled closer. Jacks drinking
is bad-that l admit. but perhaps
h'm-he comes by 1t naturally; still
Jack has never forgotten that he is a
gentleman-the son of gentleman
and has never been what you would
call fast. but" His chest lifted under
a deep breath-"but Francis-whew!"
"Fast-Frances?" It faltered tremu-
lousIy from my lips; my cigar dropped
with a soft thud.
His eyes widened. "oh, yes-fright-
fully!" And he rendered me another
cigar. and ! had to light it-he made
me! "Of course. the mistake was In
ever sending Francis away to school
NOT always a wise thing, Mr.. Light
nut. especially when the home life
has been too cloistered. think the
reaction was too much for one so
green and inexperienced as Francis.
And cxtravagance-my!" He lifted

To Make Bordeaux Mixture.

To Make Bordeaux Mixture.
The Normal or 1.6 per cent Bor-
deaux mixture is made by dissolving
6 pounds of sulphate Of copper in 30
gallons of water. while in another yes
sci 4 pounds of lime is Stacked In 13
gallons of water; the two liquids are
then slowly mixed and the prepare
ton is ready for use.
1t is interesting as well as import
ant to known that while Bordeaux
mixture is our most valuable fungicide
1t also possesses a marked insecticid-
al value. as flea-beetles appear to be
most easily overcome or driven away
by this preparation.
No farm or garden, no matter how
| small, can be considered fully
equipped without supply of Bor-
deaux mixture and suitable apparatus
for applying it.-Illlnois Farmers In

Horse Market Rssumss.

Chicago, Jan 3-while trading in
horses was fair 1t was, nevertheless,
Disappointing. and the crowd attending
the auction was small. Considering the
fact that the market had been closed
for more than q week previous to Tues
day. dealers made only natural pre-
sumptions when they anticipated a
fairly active trade. There was fairly
good run in, tho it was considerably
lighter than year ago. and the per-
centage of medium and small horses
was liberal one. Buyers were disposed
to favor heavy drafters and large sized
chunks. and sellers were able to secure
good values on this kind. but on the
bulk Of the offerings there was strong
inclination on the part Of buyers to bid
low. and owners in numerous cases
shaded Il %
Sales in private way were also
draggy, and here. as in the regular
market, buyers showed unwiltngness
TO pay the prices asked. Receipts for
the two days this week. including to-
days estimate Of 100. are 546. wAich
compares with 157 for the same time
last week. and 1915 for two days last
