without the necessity of rising early
to fetch the morning milk, in the
village churchyard. 1t shone with
creditable artistry but without en-
thusiasm because it recognized that
its operations were irrefragably pre-

Then, remembering an engagement
in the Southern Hemisphere, it went
below the horizon.
To a pedestrian proceeding along
the road from Bishops Yaxley to
Yaxley Admiral the scene was not
without its beauty, or, since he was
in holy orders, its moral; and the
young Fellow and Chaplain of St.
Wilibalds - College, Oxenfording-
bridge, whistled with fervor that
was almost laical as he shifted his
rucksack from one shoulderblade to
the other. The Rev. Mark Over,
whose heavy chestnut beard was now
gemmed with the increasing dew of
evening, was of sanguine and
cheerful temperament, and when he
did not whistle he sang as he passed
between the thick hedgerows.
"Whcre are you going, my pref
t. maid?" he carolled in the old
Mid-Wessex catch, when to his
astonishment the answering an
tistrophe was waited to his ears
from behind the hedge in voice
that was indubitably feminine.
"Can you, my dear young lady"
he exclaimed, as the voice died away,
"can you direct me to Ranunculus
Cottage? l am bound for the hos
pitable roof of Farmer Buttons, but
such is the bewilderment of an un-
familiar vicinity that I am unable to
locate it with any degree of exacti-
tude."

out loud, an appraisement of the
object, brief and lucid, like that of
an expert at his testing table:
"Two thousand, eight hundred.
Three thousand, three hundred"
The figures, as she announced
them, conveyed no note of melan-
choly. They sounded no knell like
that which accompanies the depart

or marks the passage by way of the
auction block Of some cherished COL
lection. Nine. Serquet acted as if
she wero merely another's agent.
But he, crumplcd up in a chair,
suffered a distress which left him
speechless. Those jewels there
were they not the landmarks Of their
happiness? Didn't a shred Of their
past cling to each one? He looked
at them vaguely, occupied in recall

had presented them to her, thinking
of the anniversaries and the fates
which these giftS recalled. He was

without losing a detail Of her move

reporter, later contributing fcuille-

tfen he devoted himself wholly to writ

Early In his literary career he was
helped and encouraged by Gorky. In
1901 fame came to him almost over
night through q volume Of stories
dealing with Russian social problems.
This was followed by the enthusiast site
reception of his plays which were put
on for long runs at the theatres. His
books began to sell rapidly, and an
edition of $4,000 copies of "king Hun
ger" was bought up in one day.
Andreyeff turned his back on the
traditions Of the theatre Of Shake
speare, Sardou, Dumas and his own
compatriot, Ostrovsky. He believed
thought, not action, to be the hero
Of modern drama. In a preface to
