eide to vegetables, shrubbery, or
orchard trees. 1t is often possible to
secure the services Of a local trucker

no one should be deferred from pro-
tecting his garden when an atomlzer

less.
The powders may be shaken from
a muslin bag tied to stick, or various
forms of busters, bellows or blowers
may be bought.
Dry powders are best applied when
the leaves are wet with dew.
Mechanical Methods.
For garden insects there are several
control methods that do not require
the use Of insecticides, but too much
must not be expected from them. Of
these hand picking is useful for large,
comparatively inactive insects such as
the potato beetle, cutwOrms and other
caterpillars, and the squash bug. An
other method Is jarrlng or beating In,
sects from low plants Into large pans
of water on which thin scum Of kero.
sene, being on the surface, kills the in
sects with which it comes in contact.
Collecting nets are valuable for some
pests; for example, the tarnished
plant-bug. Brushing by different means
Is used to considerable extent and
consists in beating or brushing insects
from the plants with pine boughs or
similar brush. This method has proved
of great value in combating the pea
aphls. Covering with cloth Is of use
as a preventive for the striped cucum.

CHAPTER ~.
CalIers.

The house In which Lucie Ledanois
lived had been her mothers; the fur
niture and other things in 1t had been
her mothers; the two negro servants,
who spoke only the Creole French pa
tOis, had been her mothers. 1t was a
small house, but very beautiful inside
The exterior betrayed a lack of paint
or the money with which to have
painting done.
The LedanOis family, although dis
family connected with others such as
the Malllards, had sent forth its final
bud of fruitlon in the girl Lucie. Her
mother had died while she was vet an
infant, and through the years she had
COmpaniOned her father an Invalid,
during the latter days. He had never
been a man to count dollars or costs,
and to a large extent he had outwOrn
himself and the family fortunes In
vain search for health
With Lucie he had been in Europe
at the outbreak of war, and had come
home to America only to die shortly
afterward. Once deprived of his fine
recklessness, the girl had found her
affairs in bad tangle. Under the
guardianship of Mallard the tangle
had been somewhat resolved and sim
pliiied, but even Maillard would ap-
pear to have made mistakes, and Of
late Lucle had against her will sus-
pected something amiss in the matter
Of these mistakes.
1t was natural, then, that she should
take Jachin Fell into her confidence.
Maillard had been her guardian, but
it was to Fell that she had always
come with her glrlish cares and
troubles, during even the lifetime of
her father.
At precisely three o'clock of the
Sunday afternoon Jachin Fell rang
the doorbell and Lucie herself admit
ted him.
Tell me quickly, Uncle Jachlnl"
eagerly exclaimed the girl. did you

stairs and had robbed"
81 saw him, my dear" and the little
gray man smiled. There was more
warmth to his smile than usual just
now, Perhaps it was a reflection from
the eager vitality which so shone in
the eyes of Lucle. 81 saw him, yes"
A restful face was hers-not beau
tlful at first glance; little too strong
for beauty, one would say. The deep
gray eyes were level and quiet and
wide apart, and on most occasions
were quite inscrutable. They were
now filled with quick eagerness as
they rested upon Jachln Fell. Lucle
called him uncle, but not as she called
Joseph Mallard uncle; here was no
relationship, no formal affectation Of
relationship, but a purely abiding
trust and friendship.
Jachin Fell had done more for Lucie
than she herself knew or would know
without her knowledge he had quietly
taken care of her finances to an ap-
preciable extent. Between them lay
an affection that was very real. Lucle,
better than most, knew the extraOrdl-
nary capabilities of this little gray
man; yet not even Lucle guessed
tenth of the character that lay be-
meath his surface. To her he was
never reserved or secretive, NOnethe-
less, she touched sometimes an i'm
penetrable wall that seemed ever
present within him.

The command cracked out like a

with the protrudlng knob of the safe.
With one exception all eyes were fas-

The exception was Jachln Fell who,
suddenly alert and watchful had

the safe, keen speculation in his

what that steel vault would produce.
