A shiver went over her set face
like a breath of wind over tall grass,
and she seemed to come back from an
infinite distance to place and moment.
Between the curtains a white butter
fly lowered an instant, and in the yard
she heard the sound of some winged
thing fiuttering. The thought darted
TO her thu. it was the sound of her
own dead heart awaking. She looked
at the key and all at once put a hand
to her mouth as though to still words
clamoring there.
Judith" he said TREMENDOUSLY, be-
tween short struggles for breath, ''all
these years, after l found there was
no chance for me, l reckon I've
prayed only one prayer. God, let it
be Sassoon that she loved!' And I've
prayed that mighty near every day
The thought that maybe it was Valiant
has haunted me like a ghost. You
never told-and / never dared ask you.
Judith"
Her face was still averted, and when
she did not speak he turned his head
from Ter on the pillow, with a breath
that almost a moan. She started,
IookiI t him an instant in piteous
hesitation, then swiftly kissed the lit
tie key and closed her hand tight upon
it. Truth? She saw only the pillow
and the grazing face upon it, She
threw herself on her knees by the

the Dome, in the deserted cabin from
which on a snowy night six years ago,
Shirley had rescued her. She had fed
there in her shabbiest dress, her toys
and trinkets left behind, taking with
her only a string Of blue glass beads
that had been Shirley's last Christmas
present.
Let me stay!" she had walled. I'm
not fit to live down there! It's all my
fault that it happened. 7 vas a coward.
l ought to stay here in Eell's-Half-Acre

ried her back in his arms down the
mountain-she had been too spent to
walk.

or loneliness that udu SCI ulm apart
and made him, in a way, a stranger to
those who should have known him
best. Thus her mind had come to
hold a double image: The grave man
these Swallowed forth, and the man
she had loved, whose youthful face was
in the locket she wore always on her
breast. II was this face that was
printed on her heart, and when John
Valiant had stood before her on the
porch at Rosewood, it had seemed to
have risen, instinct, from that old
grave.
He had not kept silence! He had
writteni 1t pealed through her brain
like a muffled bell. But Beauty Vail
ant was gone with her youth; in the
room nea by lay that old companion
who would never speak to her again,
the lifelong friend-who had really
failed her thirty years ago! :.

Valiant sat beside the couch, the major

She was sitting on the porch just
outside the open window, and when
she entered, tears were on her face.
The doctor drew back silently; but
when Valiant would have done so, the
major called him nearer.

out of my head that it's Beauty Vail
ant and Judith that I'm really talking
TO. Foolish-isn't it," But the idea
seemed to master him, and presently
he began to call Shirley by her moth
er's name. An odd youthfulness crept
into his eyes; a subtle paradoxical
~boyishness. His cheek tinged with
color. The deep lines about his mouth
smoothed miraculously out.

his mind seeming to slip farther and
farther away. Beauty" he gasped,

turned to Shirley's and closed. Tim

The doctor went swiftly to the door
and beckoned to Jereboam. Come in

quickly"
The old negro fell on his knees by
the couch. Mars Monty!" he cried.
"Is you gwine away en- leabe OF Jer-

The cracked but loving voice struck
across the void of the failing sense.
For a last time the major opened his
misting eyes.

whispered, and Shirley felt his head
grow heavier on her arm, Il reckon it's
about time-to me going-home!"

REMEDY FOR RADlSH WORMS
crispness and Flavor Of Vegetable I'm
prove by Use of Soot-lnsects
Are Kept Away.

A very successful truck gardener re-
Gently confessed that he made more
money out of radishes than anything
else. When asked II he was not great
ly troubled with radish worms, he re-
vealed his secret,
After the ground has been fitted up,
he makes drill marks OF the proper
depth for radish seeds, sprinkles o
little SCOT the whole length of them
and puts in the seeds and covers
them. The crispness and favor Of the
radishes seem to be greatly improved
by this treatment, while the worms
keep at q respectful distance. The
SCOT has such great forcing quail
ties that, IL the weather is not too
dry nor too cold, the radishes are
ready for market in Is days from plant
ing. the root being large In proportion
to the top. He thus has the advantage
of harvesting crop after crop from the
same ground in one season. He de-
clares that by using SCOT he can raise
good radishes on ordinary piastering
sand. provided IT is we'll drained and
warm.
Wood SCOT is preferable to coal
SCOT, although the latter may be used
profitably. He has even used a little
coal ashes in lieu Of s0ot, but of course
they are not nearly rs good.

FEEDING ROOTS TO CATTLE
English Stoekmen Feed Enormous
Quantities of Turnlps and Beets-
Best Methods Of Feeding.

Turnips and beets are grown and
fed In enormous quantities by English
stockmen and farmers. They do not
have silage because Of climatic condi-
lions unfavorable to corn. American
farmers who use roots to some extent
can wisely profit by English experience
in feeding them.
An authority advises that they
should always be cut or pulped, and
never fed whole to cattle. When fed
whole there is greater danger Of chok-
ing, especially with the last piece. and
also greater loss or waste by tram
ping under foot
The best method of feeding is to cut
or pulp the nIots and mix them with
cut hay. straw or chaff, allowing the
pile to heat for few hours before
feeding. This has the merit Of warm
ing up the roots, which are generally
a cold feed. and Of making low-grade
roughage more palatable. Cattle fed
In this manner through the winter
come out in much better condition
than il given the same amount of feed
uncut and not mixed

ONIONS RAISED FROM SEED
Industry Is Profitable II Proper Meth.
DDS Are used-Dlffieult to Keep
Clean of Weeds.

Seed onions are Of better flavor
and keep longer and are more profit
able to grow than sets, though some
fail to grow them in the home garden
because they are more difficult to keep
clean of weeds.
The best way to raise onions from
seed is by sowing the seed in a bed
or cold frame early in the season and
transplanting later to the row where
they are to grow.
A small section of the hotbed will
grow 1000 plants until they are the
size of quilts, or they can be crowded.
BY that time the ground will be warm
and all seed will have terminated so
that the plants may be set in clean
ground that has been worked over to
kill all the young weeds.
If one lacks for room in the hot
bed the seed may be sown in shell
tered place, an old brush heap, ash
bed or some place where the soil is
good.
If there is room to SOW the seeds in
drills six inches apart they may be
worked some to keep them growing
before they are transplanted.
When you are ready to transplant
them, wet the ground and pull the
plants and then cut off about half
the top and slightly tip the roots.
Set the plants from two to three
inches apart In the row and in rows
Of Is inches apart. If very dry use
water when transplanting and every
one will live.
If the soil has been we'll MANFRED
with stable manure or poultry drop.
pings and worked over several times
before the onions are transplanted
to the rows there will be but few
weeds to contend with and the plants
will not be checked in growth.
Onions should be pulled and placed
to dry in the shade when the tops be-
gin to turn yellow and drop over,
which is usually in August.

SELECTION OF POTATO SEED
One OF Most important Factors for
Success In Industry-No Waste
OF Plant Food.

One Of the essential and most i'm
portant factors for success In the 20
tato industry is the selection Of per-
feet seed stock from the hill, in much
the same way as seed corn is selected
In the field from the best individual
stalks.
There is no other way to get true
breed characteristics in potatoes ex.
cept by selecting seed from the per-
feet hill, and seed should be saved
only from hills producing a first-class
marketable potato In the growing of
which there is no waste Of plant food.
No manufacturer in this day Of
economy could stand the loss entailed
by methods of manufacture under
which he was compelled to Gull out
and throw in the scrap pile 20 per
cent Of his product as waste, and no
enc can expect the highest success in
potato culture who adopts methods re-
sulting in a loss of 20 to so per cent
of his crop in culls and unmarketable
potatoes. But this is what the potato
growers Of the United States are
many OF them, doing today.

is characteristic of good quality OF
lettuce. That good "heading-up"
characteristics are related to the size
of the seed haG been found by ex.
tensive and careful experiments car
ried on for several seasons. AS to the
results of these experiments, several
points are worthy of note in summar-
izing. Marked differences in favor Of
large seed appear in the seeding
stage, a point of little value In itself
were 1t not for the fact that an early
advantage influences later growth.
Large seeds start the plants off bet
ter; and great leaf surface area in
early life is Of permanent benefit.
Moreover heavier plants, better heads,
and greater uniformity at edible ma
turity are usually secured. In every
instance and at almost every stage of
growth it could be seen that the plants
grown from large seed we're much
more uniform in stature and In time
and manner of heading. Plants grown
from small seed we're very variable
in size and quality-some very good,
a few mediocre, and many very poor.
Some headed early, but most OF them
were tardy in forming the heart and
In firming the head.
It seems reasonable to conclude
that large sized seeder is factor in
producing head lettuce of good quality
and earliness of maturity. In the
writer's judgment the lack Of plant
uniformity commonly observed in
commercial lettuce culture is quite
apt to be due to the use Of seed which
is variable in size and consequently,
variable In value.
