"'You will wake" He dashed
out Of the room and down the hall
In an instant he was across the
lawn, darling up Evelyn's step. A
maid met him at the door.
"Miss Vancilla's gone for a walk
she informed him. 81 think she
went"
But he didn't wait to hear where
A breath from the clover field
wandered down the road TO meet
him; it took him by the hand and
led him on little way; then it told
him to stop.
The bushes rustled beside him
Out of the darkness came something
white-something tall and 1.-THE and
white.
He sprang forward.
Evelyn! You can love me? You
can give up the world for--me?"
She threw back her head and sang
And again it was the song Of
ecstasy.

he was more than twice her age, and,
to her, merely the parish minister.
So he looked up and laughed as
she came whirling into his study,
with all the riot of autumn in her
hair, and told him he was a fat,
lazy old thing.
"Ccme, Rev. she said irrele-

"Tll be over TO mother good

lightly to the ground.
Rev watched her until she had dis

he turned and went home.
A great loneliness possessed him
as he entered his study. He sat
down and made a vigorous pretense
of searching for a sermon text, but,
before long, he was on his feet again.
wandering aimlessly about. He halt
ed before the mirror; his face stared
back at him, old and haggard. He
fastened on to the bookcase; a we'll
worn copy of Browning slipped into
his hand.
In another moment he was sitting
at "A table, his head on his arm. the
flowers Evelyn had given him scat
tered over the poem about the other
Evelyn.
And in still another moment he
was fast asleep.
1t was dark when he lifted his
head from the table and opened his
eyes. For long time he sat star
ing out into the night, thinking
about a foolish dream he had had-a
dream about Evelyn. ..-
Little silly" she had multered
TO herself in the glass. Little
silly! AS if a man with h~ain-with
vigor--with personality-could find
anything 10 love in a callow infant

Rev laughed at himself, at his
own conccit, as he went over the
dream. OF course, it had been
prompted by his own longings-not
by anything he lad seen in the
child's attitude toward him on the
drive.
To be sure. she had raised her face
tragically to his as she asked him if
he would not miss her youth and
freshness, almost implying that if he
needed il the world would have to
get along without it. Yet it was
absurd to attach q deeper signil-
canoe to her childish impulses.
The absurdity of it was proved
as he walked into the dining-room
and looked at the clock. She had
gone without even coming to say
good-by, as she had promised!
Her train had left long ago. To
make sure that it had he plodded out
into the kitchen and asked the cook.
Yes, it had been on time; it had
pulled noisily out of the village at
eight O'Clock.
He stepped to the door and
glanced over at Evelyn's house. All
the blinds were down.
With a great effort he went back
to the dining-room and sat down to
his evening meal. .A
II can write my sermon in peace"
he murmured sadly.
Nevertheless, the task seemed
blessing now; it would help him 10
get through the night.
His legs felt stiff and old as he
walked back to his study and wan
dered about, cropping for match.
But as he lighted the gas and his
eye fell on the table the stiffness was
forgotten; he lcaped toward the open

Because of the German sub
marine blockade of the British
Isles, about fifty mules, which
were brought to Henderson yes
terday to be sold TO the agent of
a st. Louis firm for the Allies,
were taken back and stabbed at
home. The agent received or
ders to buy no more mules altho
a sale had been advertised for
several weeks.
The st. Louis firm had con
tracted to furnish France, Eng
land and Russia with 10000
mules for army service and now
there are 1000 mules in the
stock yards at st. Louis which
cannot be sold, as a result of the
blockade.
The Allies had placed a num-
Der of contracts in the United
States and the contractors had
sub-let these contracts. Dangers
to shipping caused the Allies to
cancel all orders for mules on
this side. Henderson Cleaner.

No Full Moon.

Here is a hit about the moon
that is given out in time for ev-
cry body to keep tab on it. Feb
ruary, 1915, passed without hav-
ing a full moon, a thing that has
not happened since 1866 and
that will not happen again until
$500, 900 years from February.
The moon in January was full on
the LIST, and 30th. In March il
will be full the lst, and 3lst, and
that cuts off any possibility of
February having a full moon.
1t is an odd combination of cir
cumstances. If there is any
thing in signs. 1866 was a peace
year after a big war.
