the brawng river connecting the lakes,
Some of these factories had been aban-
doned, and were slowly becoming pic
turesque old European castle; 2
others still in going order. The
valley had once been prosperous but ASX
in an age of tremendous progress had lost
step, it were, with the procession
Lack of adequate railway connection with
the outside world was the alleged cause,
but the conservatism of the mill-owners,
who, in an age of combination, had
struggled individually to uphold the gos-
pei of letting well alone, had resulted i'll
their being left alone. Some of the mills
had been purchased by the Trusts, and
closed up. One or two still struggled on,
battling for indivdualism and independence,
everyone but themselves recognizing the result
foregone conclusion.
Yet, for man who wished to rest, and de-
sired, like the old-fashioned miers, to be left
alone this countryside was indeed charming.
Straneigh had the roads to himself, and with
out any thought Of his dsconsoate valet moping
in an unnecessarily large and well-furnshed
house, the selfish young breathed the exhila
rating air, and reveled in his freedom.
LIE passed young couple, evidently lovers, stand
ing on grassy KNOLL and gazing across blue
lake at the wooded banks of the other side, SEEM
ingly at fine old Colonial mansion which stood IN
a clearing of the timber, with wel-kept grounds
sloping gently down to the water.
A man driving motor has little opportunity for
admiring scenery, but Stranleigh caught feeting
glimpse of girl in whose expression there was
tinge of sadness which enhanced her lovelness; then
he past with the empty road before him. He
fell into reverie most dangerous state of mind
for chauffeur but it interrupted by shout,
quickly followed by another. He looked back over
his shoulder, and saw the young man running to-
wards him. Stranleigh applied his brakes and came
to standstill The young man, approaching said
breathlessly:
''You are the chauffeur of the Englishman in AL

"Are you going to meet himY
'No; am out for my pleasure"
'Ill give you a dollar if you will take my wife

Stranleigh smiled.
'My wife has sprained her ankle, and cannot
walk" urged the young
81 sorry to hear that" replied Lord Stran-
leigh. "Step in. We will go back to her."
The young man sprang into the ear, which the
amateur chauffeur turned very deftly, and in few
moments they at the grassy bank where the girl
was sitting Her husband lifted her to the back
seat, and the polite chauffeur, again expressing
gret at the accident, drove the car swiftly back
to Atonville, stopping at the office of the only
doctor.
The young man rang the bell, but before the door
was opened, he had carried the girl up the steps.
Presently he returned and found Straneigh still sit
ting in the chauffeur's seat. He thrust hand in

VIZ He was not overbearing the
hand, condescending on the other,
being essentially a shy, unassuming person, easily
sllenced by any conroversalist who uttered state
ments of sufficient emphasis. He never seemed to
be very about anything, although undoubtedly
he judge of wel-ftting Clothes and the tailor
ing of even the remoter parts of America rather
pleased him.
One thing that met his somewhat mild dsapproval
was undue publicity. He shrank from general no.
tice, and tried to eface himself when reporters got
his track. In ORDER then, to live the quiet and
simple life, his lordship modified stratagem he had
used a previous occasion with complete success.
He arranged that the obedent but unwilling Pom
derby should act the country gentleman of England,
bent enlarging his mind by residence in the
United States. Lord Stranleigh himself decided to
masquerade Ponderbys chauffeur role for
which he was wel-ftted, because of his love for
motoring, and expertness in the art He dressed
the character to perfection, being always particular
in the matter of clothes, and quite admirable in
raising his forefnger deferentialy to the edge Of
his cap, salute which oddly affected Ponderby.
Ponderby had been born servant and brought
up servant, with the result that posing gentle
man was little to his taste. He would do anything
Lord Straneigh commanded, and that without con-
sciousy showing disapproval, but the Earl shrank
from giving command, much he would have
disliked receiving He enough with
people in general but just little suave in
dealing with those dependent him.
UDONDERBY," said the Earl in broaching the
matter, 'Tve been thinking that we both need
change"
Eyes, my lord?"
"Ponderby,' pleaded Stranleigh, "please oblige
me by omitting the appelation"
"a change, sirF'
"Ah, that s better; but omit the sir in future,

bank of Altonville fifteen thousand dollars to your
credit. You cannot return to old England just yet,
but you may enjoy New England. | have taken a
furnished house for you: all | ask in return is that
/ may offciae as your chauffeur"
And so it was arranged. Lord Stranleigh at the
wheel saw much of charming country, sometimes
with Ponderby in the back seat but more often
without him, for the inestimabe servant quite
evidently i'll at in his role
One balmy day during the exceptionally beautiful
summer of that year, Straneigh left Altonville in
his MOTOR alone, and turned into road that led
ultimately to the Adirondack mountains, dimly
in the haze, far to the north. 1t was his favorite
drive. The road led along the uplands and gave
a fine view of group of crystal lakes with we'll
wooded banks on the opposite shore The dis
trict was practically untouched by commerce,
that here and there, in the valley, stood substantial
mills, built to take advantage of water power from

DUNG LORD STRANLEIGH always
proved a disappointment to a thor
ough-going Radical, for he differed
much from the conventional ideas of
what a heredity-proud peer should be.
He was not overbearing on the one
hand nor condescending on the other.

turned from Honolulu, yesterday on
the liner Wilhelmina,; would not even
talk music with her. fellow passen-
gers in the first cabin, but after din
ner on Monday she told Captain John
son that she would like to play. Five
minutes later all the cabin passengers
were gathered in the dining saloon.
Let the music begin" they said.
Bring the rest of the audience"
said Miss Powell!
By the rest, she explained. when
somebody protested that all were
present, she meant everybody on the
ship-steerage passengers and as
many of the crew as could be spared
from their work. She had her way,
and then, instead of playing few
pieces, she gave them a full concert.

WHEN WOMAN DtsPosEs.

An interesting case is recorded in
Kansas of young woman who made
a school primer which certain pub
fishers brought out successfully. Thus
far there is nothing to be astonished
at, but it is rather astonishing that
the publishers then on some techni-
cality refused the author a share of
the profits. The young woman then
went to work at law study. passed
her examinations, and bringing suit
against her recreant publishers won
it and her rights in her own book.
This is how the story is told; but it
is more than likely that the young
woman had talent for debate and
had prepared herself more or less
before her direct experience of the
need of handling legal arrangements
in the business world crystalized her
determination to enter the law as a
