This was probably not the only

detectives, too, perhaps, hired hastily,
and all too ready to seize a suspect.
He marvelled that he could walk SO

with the pleasant fellow who walked
by his side, and answered his ques-
tions with very little idea Of what he
vas saying; making promises which
his heart would like to keep, but
which he now saw no way Of making
good.
Thus they entered the train and
came to the a where the bride and
her mother waited. There were tears
on the face Of the girl. and she turned
to the window to hide them. Cor

down through the double glass, un-
noticed by her absent gaze. he saw
the face OF the man who had follow

Realizing that his hat was a partial
disguise. he kept 1t on in spite Of the
presence of the ladies. The color rose
in his cheeks that he had to seem 80
discourteous, but. to cover his en-
~barrassment, he insisted that he be
allowed to take the elder lady to the
platform. as 1t really was almost time
for the Icin to start. and 50 he went
deliberately out to act the part of
bridegroom in the face of his recog-

For tho peasant boy or the s%ceptered king:

Gold can be gathered and hidden away
From the lives Of men and the light Of day.
But no one can hold for on moment neet
And claim all the fragrance of clover sweet.
And never a man has power to seize
AS his possession the cooling breeze,
No selfsh hand can take a fee e
For sharing the charms Of a kindly treA

And who can take to himse II and hide
The daisies decking the coun tryside.
Or keep for his cold and selfish ear
The song of the thrushes sin eing near?

On the life that throbs in q poppy seed.

That defss and mocks at a tyrant's might.
