| pllances that Rose couldn't guess the
uses or the names Of. Mrs. Ruston,
Of course, was master Of them all,
and Doris flew about to do her bid
ding, under q watchful eye.
Rose surveyed this scene, just as
she would have surveyed a laboratory,
or factory where they make some
thing complicated, like watches.
That's what 1t was, really. Those two
pink little objects, In their two severe
ly sanitary baskets. were factory prod
ucts. At precise and unalterable in
tervals, a highly scientific compound
Of fats and proteids was put into
them. They were inspected, weighed,
submitted to routine Of other proc
esses. And In all the routine, there
was nothing that their mother, now
they were fairly born. was wanted for.
Rose kept those ideas to herself
and kept an eye on young Doris, lis
tened TO the orders she got, and stud
led alertly what she did in the execu-
ton of them.
Rodney had a lovely time watching
the twins bathed. He stood about in
everybody's way. made what he con-
ceived to be allurlng noises, and finally
turned suddenly to his wife and said {:
Don't you want to-hold them, Rose?"
A stab of pain went through her
and tears came up into her eyes. "Yes,
give them to me-" she started to say.
But Mrs. ,Ruston spoke before she
could frame the words. 1t was their
feeding hour, a bad time for them
to be excited. and the bottles were
heated exactly right.
BY that time Roses idea had flow
cred into resolution. But she mustn't
jeopardlze the success Of her plan by
trying to put 1t into effect too soon.
She waited patiently, reasonably,
for another fortnight. Harriet, by that
time, had gone off to Washington on
visit, taking Rodney's heartfelt
thanks with her. Rose expressed hers
just as warmly, and felt ashamed
that they were so unreal. She simply
mustn't let herself get to resentlng

night, the doctor made his final visit.
Rose had especially asked Rodney to
be on hand TO hear his report when
the examination was over.

CHAPTER XIV.
The Only Remedy.

She was In the grip Of an appalling
realization. This moment-this actu-
ally present moment that was going
to last only until she should speak for
the next time-was the critical mo-
ment of her life.
"Roddy :" she said.
He was slumped down In big easy
chair at the other side of the table,
swinging q restless foot; drumming
now and then with his fingers. Some
sort Of scene was inevitable, he knew.
And he sat there waiting for 1t.
He thought he was ready for any
thing. But just the way she spoke his
name startled-almost frightened him,
she said it so quietly, sO-tenderly.
"Roddy," she said, II want you to
come over here and kiss me, and then
go back and sit down In that chair
again."
He went a little pale at that. The
swing Of his foot was arrested sud-
denly. But, for moment, he made no
move-just looked wonderingly into
her great, grave eyes.
Something's going to happen" she
went on, "and before it's over, I'm
afraid It's going to hurt you terribly
and me. And want the kiss for us
to remember. SO that Wen always
know, whatever happens afterward,
that we loved each other" She held
out her arms to him. wont you

He came-a man bewildered, bent
down over her, and found her lips; but
almost absently, out Of q daze.
mo, not like that" she murmured.
'In the old way"
There was q long embrace.
II don't believe I'd have the courage
to do It." she said, "if 1t were just me.
But there's someone else-Ive made
someone q promise. can't tell you
about that. Now please go back and
sit over there where ysu were, where
we can talk quietly. Oh, Roddy, love

And-and light your pipe. Oh, don't
tremble like thatl It isn't tragedy.
It's-for us, It's the greatest hope in

lighted his pipe as she asked him to,
and waited as steadily as he could for
her to begin.

NORMAL ATHLETES
Performing TO-DAY
Inter-Class Track and Field
Meet in Going
On.

An inter-class track meet In which
the four classes of the Normal school
compete was arranged for this after
noon, to begin at $3.50 o'clock. This
is manual event in the school and
the Normal track team is selected from
those who compete in the iner-class
meet, so the men have an added in
ducement to exert themselves aside
from the desire to win honors for their
class and the meet is sure to prove
an interesting one.
This meet will also serve as pre-
liminsIy to and a preparation for the
big track meet on the seventeenth
Of this month in which the Y. NJ. g. A.
the Normal and representative team
from the First Regiment will compete.
A track meet between the State Nor
nal and Salem college is scheduled
for May 81, at Salem, and on Decoro'
ton day q big meet will be staged here
between the Normal and Chenille
Normal. Later it is hoped to have a
meet with Wesleyan college but no
definite arrangements have as yet
been made.

BY A GARDENER.

Garden beets are easily grown on
any good soil, but rich, sandy loan
will give the best results. II your soil
is clayey, work in sand or sifted ashes,
and spade deeply.
The early beets should be thinned
out to 4 or inches apart in rows about
a foot apart The seed should be sown
about one inch deep for the early crop
and about half an inch deeper for the
late crop.
For a succession during the summer
paintings should be made every three
or four weeks during the spring
months
The main crop should be sown the
last half of May or the first OF june
For winter use the late sown beets ara
better than the early. Not having COM
pleted their growth they are more ten
der and OF better quality.
Beets are harvested by pulling ana
topping. Be careful not to cut the root
as His incites bleeding and may cause
decay. After cutting off the tops store
the beets in boxes or bins in cool
cellar, covering them with sand TO pre-
vent drying and shriyeling.
Beets, being root crop. need deep
soil That is, the spading must be
deeper than for such crops as iet'uce'
