and mother still believed that she
was visiting the friend at Fort
Tyson, and she would be married
long before they knew anything
about it.
0nly-well, Clarence had met
some cronies on the train, mem
bers of the company from which
he had resigned in order to be
married. Miss Dare could not
help smiling a little at that, for
the idea of an actor~throwing up
his position in the middle of a
tour to be married suddenly was
quantity amusing to her. But
when she looked at the girls face
she laughed no longer.
Yes, Clarence had met these
friends of his, and he had told
her to sit still and not to speak
to anyone, and she knew that she
was doing very wrong to disobey
him and talk as she was talking
now. But Clarence had some i'm
portant business affairs to settle
in the end car, he said. And when,
after an hours obedience, the girl
had gone timidly back to the end
car to look for Clarence, she had
found him drinking.
Yes, that was why she was
laughing and crying alternately.
Clarence had not seen her, but
she had seen him drinking, and
well, he was acting like a drunken |
tramp that had once come to the |
ranch house and frightened her
during her fathers absence.
Then Miss Dare found that |

years since he had crossed heTl
life. He must be forty now. She
would know him if they were to-
meet, but thank heaven, that had
been spared her. If she had metz
him she could not imagine what
she would have done. =
She took the girls hand bet
tween her own and began talking
to her. Was she sure that she
loved him and that Clarence low
ed her? And, was she sure that
he was a worthy man? Then. if
that were really so, why had He
not gone to see her father and
mother2
"But my father would neEer
let me marry an actor" excfainl-
ed the girl. "You know, we folks
have strange ideas out on the
ranches. And Clarence had
been the first to explain to her
the impossibility of that.
Then Miss. Dare began explain

scared look. that came in the girls
face; then she tried to console
her. And just then, happening to
look up, she saw somebody at the,

herself and hurried toward hims

Ancient Customs That Are Still kep,
Alive In England.
The city of Gloucester, In England
annually presents the king with pie
! Almost from time immemorial Glouces
ter until the year 1891 followed the
custom of expressing its loyalty to thu
throne by sending to the sovereign q
lamprey pie. In 1884 the custom was
suspended, but it was revived In 1893
and has since continued.
1t was felt that the year of the dia-
mond jubilee required some special eff
fort, and therefore the 1897 pie. which
was In May dispatched to Balmoral
upon a gold dish, was of more than
usually elaborate character. This pie
weighed twenty pounds and was
adorned with truffies. fine prawns Cd
gold skewers and aspic jelly. On the
top was a representation of the royal
crown and cushion. with scepter to
which We're attached streamers Of royal
blue. and at the base were four golden
lions.
