them corn. sunfiowers. artichokes and lima beans are prominent.
 A patch of corn is always enjoyed by the birds, but 1t does not provide the de- sired protection early In the season. Sun flowers may be planted early and they are of use before corn has made much growth. Artichokes grow tall and rank, and though they have no spreading branches, they form thickets, which af- ford snug and shady retreats. Further, when once established they come up year after year, demanding no further attention on the part of the poultryman.
 Lima beans make a tremendous growth Of vines, and are especially desirable for training over fences and arbors. They have thick foliage, and are of much use from midseason until late fall In this same class may be placed the various Eourds, which are ornamental and easy to grow. Also the plebian pumpkin and squashes of various kinds, which will run over any suitable support if given the right start.
 Trees and vines alike spell comfort for the fowls, purify the soil and are the source of additional income. No pro- g' 'essive poultryman will fail to use them to the fullest extent.

why will these two people do mean
little things TO make each other feel
bad? Why do they affect love for
others and an Indifference to each
other? why will they take a sort OF
savage delight in being able to make
each other feel the most terrible
mental anguish? Why do they act
this wayT
Why? Because they are in loye,
and love is a sort Of sweet insanity
in which its victims do such things
and say such things. that If the man
were to behave in a similar fashion
in business he would have to retire 10
private life in a week, and If a giR
were to treat her friends as she
treats her lover she would soon be
hopelessly friendless.
Love, like wine goes to the head
At time when its victims should be
as cool headed as if their lives de-
pended on being well balanced they
know neither sense nor judgment,
nor caution. nor sympathy nor un-

has confessed her love for man she

Fifty-second Chapter.

nj sooner had become aware
that I loved Martin Conrad,
than my conscience told me | had
no right to do so. I was married,
and to love another than my hus-
band was sin.
1t would be impossible TO say with
what terror this thought possessed
me. 1t took all the sunlight out of
my sky, which a moment before had
seemed SC bright. 1t came on me like
a storm of thunder and lightning
sweeping my happiness into the
abyss
All my religion, everything | had
been taught about the sacrament OF
marriage SCENE to rise up and ac-
cuse me. 1t was not that | was con
scious of any sin against my hus-
band. ! was thinking only OF my sin
against God.
The first effect was to make me
realize that It was no longer posi- .
BILE for me to speak TO Martin about
my husband and Alma. TO do this
now that ] knew | loved him would
| be decetful, mean, almost treacher-
Gus.
The next effect was to make me see
that all thought of a separation must
now be given up. How could | ac-
cuse my husband when ! was my
| self in the same position? If he
loved another woman, | loved another
man.
In my distress and fright l saw
| only one means of escape either from
| the filthy burden to which | was
| bound or the consciousness of sim
| full heart, and that was to cure my
| self of my passion. ! determined e
| do so. | determined to fight against
my love for Martin Conrad, to con-
quer it and to crush it.
My first attempt to do this was
! feeble enough. 1t was an effort to
| keep myself out of the reach OF
temptation by refusing to see Martin
alone
For three or four days l did my
best to carry out this purpose, MAX
| ing one poor excuse after another
when (as happened several times a
day. he came down to see me--that
! | was going QUOT or had just come in
or was tired or unwell.
1t was tearing my heart out to de-
ny myself so, but / think | coulc
have borne the pain II | had not
realized that ! was causing pain to
| him also.
My maid, whose head was always
running on Martin. would come bach
| to- my room, after delivering one OF
| my lying excuses, and say
"You should have seen his face
when told him YOU were III. II was
just as il ia driven knife into
him"
Everybody seemed to be in a con
spiracy to push me into Martins
arms-Alma above all others. Beine
a woman, she read my secret, and
| could see from the first that she
wished to Justify her own conduct

first chapter-continued,


Didn't l say the river air would do
you good, deaTest?" she said, and then
she added something else, which
would have been very sweet If it had
been meant sweetly, about there be-
ing no surer way to make a girl beau
tifu than to make her happy.
There was some talk of our dining
together that night. but l excused
myself, and taking leave of Martin,
who gave my hand gentle pressure,
l ran upstairs without waiting for
the lift, being anxious to get TO my
own room that l might be alone aid
go over everything In my mind.
! did so, ever so many times, re-
calling all that had been said and
done by the commander and his COM
rades, and even by Treacle. but
above all by Martin, and laughing
softly TO myself as I lived my day
ever again in a world of dream.
My maid came in once OF twice
with accounts of the gorgeous Derby
dinner that was going on downstairs,
but that did not matter to me in the
least. AMI as soon as l had swallowed
a little food ! went TO bed early
partly in order to get rid of Price,
that | might go over everything again
and yet again.
| must have done so far into the
night, and even when the wings of
my memory were weary of their nut
tering and / was dropping off at last,
/ thought l heard Martin calling
"shipmate' and | said Yes" quite
loud, as il he had been with me still
in that vague and beautiful shadow :
land which lies on the frontier of
sleep.
How mysterious, how magical, how
wonderful
Looking back l can not but think
it strange that even down to that mo-
ment | did not really know what was
happening to me. being only con-
scious OF great flood of joy. | can
not but think II strange that though
Nature had been Whispering to me for
months, did not know what it had
been saying. can not but think it
strange that, though / had been look
ing for love so long without finding
il. | did not recognize it Immediately
when it had come to me of itself.
But when / awoke early in the
morning. very early while the sun
rise was filling my bedroom with a
rosy flush, and the thought of Mar
tin was the first that was springing
from the mists OF sleep to my con-
scious mind. and l was asking myself
how it happened that l was feeling
so glad, while l had so many causes
for grief, then uddenly-sudden
as the sun streams through the cloud
scud over the seal knew that what
had long been predestined had hap
pened that the wondrous new birth,
the great revelation. the joyous mys-
terry which comes to every woman in
the world had come at last to me.

couldn't write anything TO save my
soul. Now, you could. I'm sure you
could. You cvuld write like Robinson
Crusoe. Whysshouldn't you write the
article, and I'll tell you what to put
into it,"
There was no resisting that. And
down at the -Sttom of my secret
heart l was glad of the excuse to my
conscience that could not any longer
run away from Martin because l was
necessary to help him.
So we sat together all day long, and
though Il was like shooting the rapids
TO follow Martins impetuous and
imaginative speech, I did my best to
translate his disconnected outbursts
into more connected words, and when
the article was written and read
aloud to him he was delighted.
Stunning! Didn't l say you could
write like Robinson Crusoe?"
In due course it was published and
made a deep impression, for wherever
went people were talking of II, and
though some said "F'udge!" and
others, like my husband. said
"Dreamsi" the practical result was
that the great newspaper started
