He sailed from Cherbourg on the
first steamship calling there. Awake,
he thought of her; asleep, he dreamed
of Challls Wrandall. There was some
thing uncanny in the persistence with
which that ruthless despoiler OF peace
forced his way into his dreams, to the
absolute exclusion of all else. The voy-
age home was made horrid by these
nightly reminders OF a man he scarce
ly knew, yet dreaded. He became
more or less obsessed by the idea that
an evil spell had descended upon him
in the shape of ghostly influence.
The weeks passed slowly for Hetty.
There were no letters from Sara, but
an occasional line or so from Mr.. Car
roll. She had made Brandon Booth
promise that he would not write to
her, nor was he to expect anything
from her. If her intention was to cut
herself of entirely from her recent

knows), that Lord Murgatroyd's grand
niece was no longer the intimate of
that impossible person, Sara Gooch.
She couldn't think of Sara without
thinking of Gooch.
But at last Mrs. Rowe Martin depart
ed, much to Hetty's secret relief. but
not before she had INCREASED the girls
burthens by introducing her into a
cold.nosed cosmopolitan set from
which there we're but three ways of es-
cape. She refused to marry one of
them, denied another the privilege of
making love to her, and declined to
play auction bridge with all of them.
They were not long in dropping her, al
though 1t must be said there was real
regret among the men.
From Mrs. Rowe.Martin and others
she heard that Mrs Redmond Wran-
dali and Vivian were to be in Scotland
in October, for somebody-or-other's
christening, and that Leslie had been
doing some really wonderful flying at
Pau.

tin made 1t very clear that Sara was
a respectable person-but heavens!
The chill days of autumn came and
the crowd began to dwindle. Hetty
made preparations to Join in the ex-
odus. AS the days grew short and
bleak, she found herself thinking more
and more of the haDpy-hearted, sym
bolic dicky-bird on faraway window
ledge. His life was neither a travesty
nor tragedy; hers was both of these.
Something told her zoo that Brandon
Booth had wormed the truth out OF
Sara, and that she would never see
him again. 1t hurt her to think that
while Sara believed in her, the man
who loved her did not. 1t is a way
men have.

Tobacco Fools Bears.

angry bears, a veteran trapper recon-
mends tobacco in the pockets.
He ran into big cinnamon, COM
ing down the trail at full speed. The
bear struck him in. the pit of the stom.
ach with his head, hurting him into
the underbrush and sinking his teeth
into his thigh. The bears teeth were
setting deeper. and he had about given
up when the bear suddenly let go, sat
up on his launches and began to
strangle. much like dog with bone
in his throat He continued the per
Torrance for a few seconds, then rose
to his feet and started up the noun
tain as fast as he could travel.
The trapper discovered a plug OF
chewing tobacco in his pocket had
been ground to pulp and wet with
the animals saliva. The tobacco had
evidently made him SO sick that he
was glad to let go.

monotonous beat of the engines. Peo-

BELIEVE PIECEWoRK is BEST
Employers Of Labor Bring Strong Ar
ouments to Bear In Favor Of
That System.

The point is often made that the
trade union with its day-ra.e mini
mum assumes that all OF it's crafts
men are equally efficient and that
they should be paid accordingly. EN-
ployers are not likely to admit this al
legation, but sometimes they act as II
they also believed In a dad level
among workmen.
The president of large electrical
railway system is consistently opposed
to piecework or premium systems, not
because OF any fear OF labor troubles
or the special conditions OF electric
railway maintenance, but simply on
the assumption that no shopman can
possibly be worth more than 81 to
$3.50 day. The shop superintendent
OF this railway has been able TO
strengthen his argument for a piece
work system by making careful study
of practices In other shops, and he
has determined that a large increase
In the production of some jobs could
be brought about by some form OF pre-
MUM system. In fact, he has calcu-
lated that the abolition Of the day
rate would produce n net saving of
about twenty per cent. in labor cost.
He is also convinced that the piece
work system would actually result in
better workmanship because the pres
emit day rates are too low to appeal to
good Bhopmen.
This has been the result on most
roads where the piecework system has
been introduced. But It seems to take

world and its people, as she might
have done in another way by pursuing
the time-honored and rather cowardly
plan of entering a convent, she was
soon to discover that success in the
undertaking brought deeper sense OF
exile than she could have imagined
herself able to endure at the outset.
She found herself more utterly alone
and friendless than at any time In her
life. The chance companions she
formed at Interlaken-despite a we'll
meant reserve-served only to in
crease her feeling Of loneliness and de-
spair. The very natural attentions of
men, young and old, depressed her, in
stead Of encouraging that essentially
feminine thing called vanity. She
lived as one without An aim, without a
single purpose except to close one day
that she might begin the next,
After a time, she went on to Lu-
cerne. Here the life on the surface
was gayer, and she was reused from
her state Of lethargy in spite OF her
self. Once, from her little balcony in
the National, she saw two Of her old
acquaintances In the chorus at the
Gaiety. They were wearing many
pearls. Another time, she met them in
the street. She was rather quietly
dressed. They did not notice her. But
the prosperous Hebraic gentlemen who
attended them were not so careless.
One day card was brought to her
rooms. For the next two weeks she
had true and unavoidable friend in
Lucerne. II would appear that Mrs.
Rowe-Martin had not been appraised OF
the rift in the Wrandall lutte. She
had no reason to consider the exclu-
sive Miss Castleton as anything but
the most desirable of companions. Mrs.

CHAPTER xlv.-contInued.

When the night boat from Dover to
Calais slipped away from her moor
ings that evening, Hetty Castleton and
her maid were on board, with all their
bags and trunks, and Brandon Booth
was supposed to be completely at sea
in the heart of that glittering London
town.
The night was fog-laden and drip
ping, and the crossing promised to be
unpleasant Wrapped in a thick sea-
ulster Hetty sat huddled up In the lea
Of the deckhouse, sick at heart and
miserable. She reproached herself for
the scuryy trick she was playing on
him, reviIed herself and yet pitied her
self.
A tall man came stumbling down
the narrow space along the rail and
stopped directly In front of her She
started in alarm as he reached out his
hand to support himself against the
deckhouse. AS he leaned forward, he
laughed.

said the man.
For a long time she stared at him,
transfxed, and then, with a low moan,
covered her eyes with her hands.
