torted why don't you tell me at
once that I'm wasting my timer"
81 could have done So" Bruce
said quietly, "if you had told me
at once what had brought you over.
I decided, long ago, that you and |
cannot be friends, Autumn. i"
She threw back her head in
proud gesture Il shall not ask you
the reason" she said, and turned to-
ward the door.
Before she was aware that there
had come any change in the i'm
mobility of his posture, he had
seized her wrist and turned her
about SO that she stood facing him.
IT should like you to know, just
the sane," he said.
AS he spoke, he drew her violent
ly to him. For an electrifying in
stant, she knew that all her resist
ance had crumpled within her and
that she was responding to his al
most brutal kiss with a fierce and
overwhelming joy. Then, with all
the strength of her arms, she beat
against him, striving to tear herself
away from his crushing embrace.
With low laugh, Bruce grasped
her shoulders and flung her from
him, so that she reeled backward
against the wall of the cabin. She
stood, gasping in rage and terror,
unable to speak, while he lighted
another cigarette and lounged indif-
ferently again on the tables edge.
''Now-you have the reason" he
said. "You had better not come here
again.
She looked across at him, unable
at first to give place to the terrify-
ing conviction that had come sud
denly upon her. She had done more
than cure him of his love for her
she had destroyed even his respect
for her.
In a moment she was out of the
door into the blindness of dying
sky, dying world, into a forlorr
space that was hollow with the moar
of death.

CHAPTER X

It was only ruse on the part of
the Laird to despatch Autumn to
town on business that he could have
attended to as well himself on his
next visit. He wanted the house to
himself. He would have contrived
some means of getting old Hannah
out of the way as well, but there
were limits, after all, beyond which
a man of self-respect will refuse to
90. For that matter, he would have
permitted Autumn to remain at
home had it not been that he feared
the hurt to her feelings which the
presence of young Landor in the
house would occasion.
For the Laird had asked Bruce to
come over and talk to him on mat
ters that could not be discussed with
any degree of satisfaction over the
telephone. Jarvis, of course, might
have gone to the Landor place and
talked with Bruce, but some instinct,
some sentiment, perhaps, forbade
that. Besides, young Landor had
not shown the slightest antipathy to
the suggestion that he should visit
the Laird in his own house.
And now as he sat and waited for
the boy, he was strangely moved.
In a few minutes he would be talk
ing face to face with the son of Geof-
frey Landor, talking as man to man,
though it was difficult to think that
Young Bruce had really come to
mans estate In all these years he
had never talked to Bruce more than
to exchange a greeting when they
met, or to make some polite enquiry
regarding his mothers health. In
that. he had often told himself, he
had not been wholly to blame. The
boy had been raised under the in
fiuence of Jane Landor, whose bit
terness had lasted until the day of
her death. Bruce had been quite as
aloof as he had been. At Jane Lam
doris funeral, Jarvis had been deep
" moved by the boys bereavement,
and had wished with al his heart
that he might have been able to
summon the courage to take him
aside and speak TO him. For in
spite OF ali that had kent them apart,
he he'd never been free Of desire to
play the part of father to Bruce
Landor.

The last herd or cattle in the
United States to be tested for tuber-
culosis contained 2S animals infected
with the disease. The testing, be-
gun in 1917, survived the opposition
of many people. All but six counties
in the United States now are modi-
fed accredited areas, which means
that tests have proved less than one
half of per cent of all cattle in ac-
credited counties have bovine tuber-
culosis. During the % years of test
ing, 3,750,000 cattle were condemned
and slaughtered.

Christ. Science

God The PreServer of Man" will be the subject of the lesson sermon.
 The Golden Text is from Psalms 36:6: "Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: o Lord, thou pre- servest man and beast"
 Bible readings include the follow ing: And we have known and be- lieved the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwell leth i'll love dwelleth in God, and God in him. ;. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear" q John 4:16).
 Selections from the Christian Science textbook. Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, include the following: Fear is the fountain of sickness, and you master fear and sin through divine Mind; hence it is through divine Mind that you overcome disease. Only while fear or sin remains can it bring forth death. To cure a bodily ailment. every broken moral law should be taken into account and the error be rebuked. Fear, which is an ele- ment of all disease, must be cast out to readjust the balance for God. Casting out evil and fear enables truth to outweigh error. The only course is to take antagonistic grounds against all that is opposed to the health, holiness, and har- mony of man, Gods image" (page 391 :32).
