Continued from Saturday,
The horses sprang into a canter
and then a gallop, and stretched their
legs and fiattened down into a sharp
run. The girl and the boy were flying
side by side through the mellow land
scape: the gray towers and red roofs
OF the chateau were in the distance;
the little Cheulte lay 20 the right, its
pools like a string Of quicksilver beads
spotted on the fields; the mountain OF
the Rose, calm and enormous and
dark, lifted out OF the country 70 the
left. Many a time in. the six years
TO come Francois saw that picture and
felt the vibrating air as they rushed
through II. He had strained his very
soul to talk at length as he had Of
his rival. Of his friend: he felt sick
and exhausted from the effort; now
he must tell her that he was going
tomorrow, and he must not let a word
or a look tell her that he loved her.
The horses raced merrily; Alike sat
close TO the saddle with the light
swinging seat. the delicate hand on
the bride, which were part OF her
perfect Workmanship. and over and
over as he watched her ride Francois
said 10 himself:
Il will give my happiness for the
seigneur's-I said IL. and / will. 1 will
be friend to Pietro always said

over and over the horses flying
feet pounded out that self -command,
and at length the music Of the multi
plying hoof beats grew slower. and
with tightening rein they drew in and
stopped under the big chestnut. Alike
was laughing. exhilarated. lovely.
Wasn't II good race? Didn't they
go deliciously?' she threw at him.
And then, I'VE will go around by the
Delesmontes road: IL is only three
miles farther, and IT is early in the
afternoon: there is nothing to do"
Francois spoke slowly. II am

NO" said Francois. "I have not
forgotten-no. indeed. But I am going
away tomorrow. Alike"
Going away?" Alike turned sharp
ly. and her deep blue glance searched
his eyes. What do you mean,
Francois?" And then. imperiously:
Don't tease me, Francois! 1 don't
like it,"
Francois steadied. hardened his face
very carefully and answered: II am
not teasing you. Alike. I did not tell
you before because" he stopped, for
his voice was going wrong-"because
I thought we would have our ride
just as usual today. I only knew
about it myself this morning. 1 am

No one ever knew. no one Will ever

aese quiet unassuming sisters have
done in South Bend.
They were at the call of those in
need of nurses care. tt didn't make
any difference whether the call came
from high or low. rich or poor; it
made no difference whether IL came
at dawn or midnight; 1t made no diff
ference whether the case was the
simplest or most difficult; whether
1t came from a family amply able to
pay for attention. or from one where
payment would be utterly out of the
question; II made no difference
whether the call came in balmy June
or the darkest most cherries stormy
night in December.
If people needed them, they went,
quietly. assuredly, efficiently to the
task.
They had done untold good in fam
lilies where a paid nurse was impos-
sible and where the matter OF trained
care meant life or death.
They were in very truth Little Sis
tiers Of the Poor. And the poor will
miss them.

child, lying in the room beyond in a
high fever. I'll with the disease with
which his brother had fallen. A
woman's soul might well be over

themselves. And now that the revolu-

Louis-the invalid lad in the room
beyond, was in imminent danger. He
was excepted from the general am

were closed, for the authorities of
Tuscany, and Switzerland had let her
know that the prince would not be
permitted in those territories. From
Rome two of her sons uncles Cardinal
Fesch and King Jerome, had sent
word that if he were taken by the
Austrians he was lost And at the
moment when HOrtense had decided
to carry her boy off to Turkey by way

SAVING The FORESTS

4 The board of agriculture and forestry, which
was given the proceeds from water licenses by
act OF the hast legislature, is beginning more
systematic campaign for the preservation of Ha-
waan forests from the attack of grazing ami
mails. In this connection, it is worthy of note
that experience on the mainland shows that de-
nuded forests can he restored by intelligent con-
sevation work. z# ~ ztS
The improved condition CT the national forest
range after regulated grazing is pointed to by
experts of the department of agriculture as q
demonstration that areas which have been severe
~ damaged through oyerstocking by sheep and
cattle can be brought back to their former carry
ing power through a system of sufficiently intel
ligent use
When the government took charge of the live
stock ranges within the national forests some Of
them were SO badly oyergrazed and otherwise in
iured from reckless handling of the stock that
their grazing value appeared to have been almost
entirely destroyed. Many Of these ranges, how
ever, have been restored and made as valuable as
ever. On several of the forests results have more
than justified the expectations and the range is
in better condition than it ever was
An example of this Improvement is cited in
the Nebo national forest, Utah. In 1908, when
that forest was created the ranges within the
forest boundaries were found to be badly over
grazed and trampled because there was lack Of
any control or supervision over the areas. One
of the areas was at that time estimated to be
capable Of carrying only 5000 head of cattle
Now, through conservative management and ju-
dieious distribution of the cattle over the ranges
and improvements in water conditions, the car
rying capacity of the range has been increased
until, in the present grazing season, nearly 5000
head of cattle are using this particular area, and
forest officers feel that few hundred head more
can be safely grazetl there without injury.

Professor William Alanson Bryan of the Col
lego of Hawaii has given Hawaii genuine sur
prise by his application fer the position of gov
ernort He has been active ina number of good
citizenship movements, but not in local partisan
politics Ia fact, when Honolulu discussed a
new city charter some months ago, he was, if
memery serves correctly, a vigorous supporter
Of non -partisanship in local government-which
does not, of course, disqualify him from Demo
cratic affiliations in national politics.
Professor Bryan, he informs the Star Bulle-
5 tin, campaigned on the stump for Candidate Will
liam Jennings Bryan in 1896 and took consider
able part in politics. He was then a resident of
Iowa He does not profess to have been partic-
ularly active in Hawaiian politics and claims no
precinct club membership Personally, he has
the qualifications of character, energy and sin
cerity of purpose As to his executive ability or
his grasp of the Notwithstanding duties
pertaining 10 the H0NefI0rSHlp, the community
is entirely at less. He has blown no trumpets
in his personal and modest campaign for the Of
flee, nor havestrumpets been blown for him.
1t is probable that had Professor Bryan's as
piraticns for the gcvernorship been locally an
pounced, he would have received considerable
non-partisan backing here on account Of many
admirable personal qualities and the belief that
he is of type that commands respect in office.
Under the present conditions, he can hardly be
regarded as likely to be. the choice Of President
. Wilson, if reports direct from Washington are at
all near the truth. Watson seems to he Wilson S
choice provided his health remains good.
Undoubtedly Professor Bryan was actuated
by motives of modesty and reticence in applying
for the governorship without making public an
nouncement of his intentions, hut his course hap
hardly been fair to Hawaii. We believe that a
seeker after officeof such deep importance to all
Hawaii as the goyernorship should take the peo-
pie into his confidence and give them an oppor-
tunity of starting on equal terms with him in ez-
pressing their opinion as to his fitness for the
position. The Sane statement applies to Mr. l..
E. Pinkham il the report that Pinkham is in
Washington and working for the goyernorship is
