Yes, dazzling light in the midst OF
which I bad been put down. sprang
to my feet. l was in the middle OF a
drawing-room that seemed to me to
be decorated, adorned and furnished
with nothing but flowers, flowers both
magnificent and stupid, because of the
silk ribbons that tied them to baskets,
like those which they sell in the
shops on the boulevards. They were
much too civilized flowers, like those
which / used to find in my dressing
room after first night. And, in the
midst of all these flowers, stood the
black shape of the man in the mask,
with arms crossed, and he said: Don't
be afraid, Christine; you are IN no
danger 1t was the voice!
MY anger equaled my amazement.
I rushed at the mask and tried to
snatch it away. so as to see the face
of the voice. The man said, You are
in no danger, so long as you do not
touch the mask And, taking me
gently by the wrists, he forced me
into a chair and then went down on
his knees before me and said nothing
more! His humility gave me back
some Of my courage, and the light re-
stored me to the realities Of life. How
ever extraordinary the adventure
might be, was now surrounded by
mortal, visible, tangible things. The
furniture, the hangings, the candles,
the vases and the very flowers In their
baskets, of which could almost have

cost, were bound to confine my lmag-

which | had recognized under the
mask, was on its knees before me,
was a man! And began to cry. {.

In this way, they reached the root.
Christine tripped over it as lightly
as a swallow. Their eyes swept the
empty space between the three domes
and the triangular pediment. She
breathed freely over Paris, the whole
valley of which was seen at work be-
low. She called Raoul to come quite
close to her and they walked side by
side along the zinc streets, In the

twin shapes in the huge tanks, full OF

bronze gesture. lifted his huge Tyre
to the heart of a crimson sky.
1t was gorgeous spring evening.
Clouds. which had just received their
gossamer robe of gold and purple from
the setting sun, drifted slowly by;
and Christine said to Raoul:
"Soon we shall 60 farther and fast
er than the clouds. to the end Of the
world. and then you will leave me.
Raoul But, If, when the moment
comes for you to take me away, re-
fuse to go with you-well you must
carry me off by force!"
"Are you afraid that you will
change your mind, Christine?"
Il don't know" she said. shaking
her head in an odd fashion. HE Is a
demon!" And she shivered and nes-
tied in his arms with a moan. Il
am afraid now Of going back to live
with him in the ground!"
".What compels you to go back.
Christine?"
IF do not 60 back to him, terrible
misfortunes may happen! But
l can't do 1t, can't do 1t! l

pie who live underground. {.
But he is too horrible! And yet the

will drag me with him, underground,
and go on his knees befor. me. with
his deaths head. And he will tell me
that he loves me! And he will cry!
oh, those tears, Raoul, those tears IN
the two black eye-sockets OF the
deaths head! cannot see those
tears flow again!"
She wrung her hands in anguish,
while Raoul pressed her to his heart
mo, no, you shall never again hear
him tell you that he loves you! You
shall not see his tears! Let us fly,
Christine, let us fly at once!"
And he tried to drag her away
then and there. But she stopped him.

head sadly. Not now! 1t

CANADIAN FIELD PEA
AS A FORAGE CR0P.
By H. D. Hughes, Iowa Agricultural
Experiment Station.

AS an annual leguminous forage
crop, the Canadian pea probably has
no equal. 1t has been very exten-
sively grown in Canada, but has not
received as much attention in the
United States as it deserves. In
Wisconsin and Michigan it has been
cultivated to a considerable extent,
but not so largely elsewhere. 1t is
we'll adapted to Iowa climatic condi-
tions and should be grown success
fully almost anywhere in the state.
That cannot be said of the cow pea,
another valuable forage crop, which
does we'll in Iowa only IN the ex-
IRENE southern sections.
The Canadian pea may be grown
either for seed or for hay, but it is
usually grown for hay, of which it
will yield from one to three tons per
acre. The seed yield is from twenty
bushels upward per acre. The hay
contains large percentage of pro-
TEN and the seed contains larger
percentage of this nutrient than
wheat, oats or corn.
When sowed for hay, Canadian
peas are usually put in with oats, a
mixture of one and one-half bushels
Of oats to one and one-half bushels
of peas being most desirable. This
combination is satisfactory because
the seeding time of both is about the
same, both give the best results UNI
der the same climatic conditions and
both are ready for cutting for best
results about the same time.
When Canadian peas are seeded
alone they tend to lodge very badly,
making it impossible to cut the hay
satisfactorily. The oats aid in hold
ing the peas erect.
The mixture of oats and peas
should be seeded as early in the
spring as the condition of the ground
will allow and should preferably be
