ir * The Will and the Way BY HERBERT L. VAHEY. PART II. From first to feat the object of their me? tin.; was not mnt : oned. He remembered this when he got homo, and heartily "cus-3o:l" himself for his remissiMxa 'brut, somehow, arse hadn't given him a chance. He couldn't very weS be bruwjue and: barge in witti 'his pr<.T>ca-l in tha middle of hr conversatiKdi. After all, it wasn't an easy job to start co!d-<bkxxtad bargaiTv- Injf with a giri 1 yoa, ami a very nice girl, too whom one has never seen before. Theory is eCA very ww!J; bast it wants a bit of doing. Next time, he to'd himself, he worM part rijrltt down to tou&ine*? and sttUe the whole r you see, it was purely a burri- I He sat down in a chair and lighted . Th* next time came next day. They had lunch at the "Oafe Alcazar," a motor ijr.n tJown to Hampton Court, and jyc<t hack in time for tea at tihe "Petit Sa!''e de Pari," but, somehow, Hie opportunity to fix thing's up did not arrive. They spent a nior=-t enjoy- able day, and arrHii^jed to meet on the following afternoon. Now, how long this sort of thirns? might have pone on, irt is impofgible to ay, had not Gwendoline biwught t-he mattes- up for imme lLata consideratkxn by a chance remark. "Yon see," said Derrick, uncomfort- Wy, after he had' explained tJve po- lit n. "my difficulty is that I am not mnrrying man - " "Oh!" responded Owends'ine, with Just the weeniest wupicion of incred- ulity in her modulated voice, "What A shame it is to force a man to marry against his will? All the same, it to very fortunate for me; you see, I am all alone in the world, and need money so badfy." Harwood cleared his throat. "Yes," he said, "I am glad for your ako." They didn't speak fr a long time; when they did it wasn't a-bout the iniquitous wiM. He found himself talk- ing about tigers * a r.d later about her. Having, got everything adjusted, at last, and the day for the strange cere- mony fixed., Derrick busind himself with preparations for a hoi Way in ItaKy. But he was not at ease; he had a feeling that something was wrong. The lure of mitishirve, bhie skies and Mmpid water was, somehow, not so potent as it had been a little time back. In a word, he couldn't enthuse over the project. Not once or twice., but many times, he took himaolf to tank: "Is it fair to ask a girl to bind her- nlf for life in a mock marriage? To tie a knot which phe could not und'? To forfeit forever the chance of we-d 1 - ded bHsB with some on whom she might 'yet meet and love devotedly for the sake of money?" He didn't like the idea a little bdt. But, after all, It was purely a busi- ness arrangement, a matter of mutual convenience. There was no compuuV- lon. Then 1w l..-tran to think in detail of Gwendoline. What wonderful eloquent eyes she bad and how full of mis- diief and merriment they were, when that peculiarly haunting, wistful look was absvnt. And what lovoly hair and tops contrasting so amazingly whh her woft creamy skin She had beautiful teeth, too tnd a figure that would have made a Prem-h sculptor rave idiotically. Very pretty * But the real charm w*s her temperament woh a dar, happy, tender, considerate, unselfish Uttle soul She "Hanff it all! What utterr ruM>ih Pm tanlkinjfl" he oxoJaimed realizing ttiat he had been soliloquizing'. He put her iTwtantly out of his rwind, and concentrated upon Baedeker's North- am Italy. Three minutes later the innumer- Wle fascinating qualities of Mi** Gwendoline Anklow were the focal point of his intractable thoughts. He was very anjrry a girl of wtoom he knerw nothing; whom he had only known a couple of weeks. "Ye, there was sometHunK about the way he used her lips when speak- ing * * * something rather * It w* no groo<l--ahe would float into hfa mind. TT recurrent vision an- noyed him exceedingly ; but in tho end he had to capitulate and suffer the "No dwbt about it, she was a n-.re girl, -in fact, very ndce girl! Bivt what of it? I'm not a marrying men and, if I wore, she's not in tho least ii/eir- ested in real matrimony? Why, s'he said so plainly, in her firs-t letter!" Raving re-ached this conclusion which was about as ch-e?<ry as coW mut- ton Derrick tried to get on with his hc'May packing. But he found Mm- *!f wondering Why Gwendoline dkln't want to marry that is to say, marry in the ordinary way. The thing wor- ried 1 him, until, in sheer desperation,! he had to go and ask her. "Oh, tout I have no prejudice against i mrjrriage!" she said, in answer tx> his ahrupt question. "When the man I love asks me to marry him I shall not hesita'e a moment." Derrick looked at her, puzzled. "So there is a man?" he queried, "Oh, yes, there is a man," she res-' sponded. in a very subdued voice. "In that case our engagement is at an end," declared H.-irwood, emphatic- j Ri'iy. "I cannot marry you when youj are in love with ano'hcr man. I "can-] not aiOow you to throw away your, chan-co of happiness in a mock cere- mony for the sake of money!" He gazed at her daterminedly; she looked at him from beneath half- lowered lids. "You said another, <'jHn't you?" she murmured, ever so feebly, panting a little. If Harwood- had suddenly been con- fronted by twenty-two ful^grown,! extra-hungry, man-eating tigers he couldn't have been mere dumbfounded, j His expression was a sort of compote ; of horror, amazemen-t, idiotic ecstasy,! incredulity and fanatical rapture, garnished with spasmodic smiles. "Gwendoline, you d-on't!" was all he said. Just the sort of hopele.-wly enig- matic thing a man of his type would say. But she understood. You see, Gwendoline was a pirl full of per- spicacity. They had hardly recovered from the shock of their real engagement, nnd certainly hadn't got over the wonder, 1 glory and beauty of it, when Harwood received a letter from his uncle's soM-tor, requesting him to call at his earliest convenience. Derrick hasten- ed to comply with the request, and waa xr-ihered into the cold presence of t'he white-faced, 'bewhiskered little mnn. "Mr. Harwood," he said, in a sepul- chral undertone, "I am afraid that I have a. communication to make to you which, In the Mght of your recent en- gagement to Miss Gwendoline Arklow, indicated 1 in your letter of the twenty- fourth, must necessarily be exceed- ingly disagreeable. I shall not weary you with introductory remarks; the plain fact of the matter is: Your uncle, Sir P<ter Harwood, left, It ap- pears, another will of considerably later date than the one you have al- ready seen " He Fsd and fiddled with his CANADA PRESERVES HISTORIC SITES History and romance surround the story of Fort Prince of Wales, at the mouth of the Churchill River, on Hudson's Bay.

Three French warships captured the fort in 1782. The picture shows an old gateway. Woman's Sphere Recipes For Holiday Times. Puffed rice balls, a wholesome candy for children, can be made by rolling puffed rice in a taffy that is made for pulling. To make the taffy use one cupful of water, two cupfuls of sugar, a lump of butter the size of a walnut and a teaspc/onful of vanilla. Boil the mixture until it spins a thread, then pour into a greased pan over puffed riee and allow it partly to cool before shaping into balls. Airy kimes are well named. They are made with two cupfuls of brown sugar, one tab!espt>onful of vinejrar, one teaspoonful of vanilla extract, one-half cupful of water, white of one egjt, one cupful of chopped nut meats (either pecans or walnuts). Boil Bujjar, water and vinegar together until the mixture forms a thread when a small quantity is dropped from a spoon. Beat the white of egg until stiff and pour the hot mixture into it, beabing all the time. When rather stiff, add the vanilla and the nuts. Drop from a spoon on waxed paper. Divinity fudge is also called "heav- enly bliss," either name is fitting. It requires two cupfuls of white sugar, one j half cupful of boiling water, one- half cupful of corn syrup, one cupful of chopped nut meats (almonds, fil- berts or walnuts), whites of two egg*, one teaspoonful of vanilla. Boil the sugar, water and syrup together until a drop of the mixture becomes crisp when dropped in cold water. Beat the whites of eggs until stiff, add the hot mixture, beating all the time. When fairly stiff, add nuts and vanilla, con- tinue beating until very stiff, then pour into a buttered tin, and when cool cut in squares. Rocks are easily made.

"But what ds the purport of lt?"i asked Derrick, a Qittle Impatiently, "You ay it will 'bo exceedingly dia- agreeaMo 4n what way?" The attorney wan not to be driven; the lepal profession does not permit hustle. He folded hia hands, blinkedi rapidly, and took up a document. "You will recall that by the terms of the former wMl," he raid, "a mim of 10,000 pounds waa left to you on condition that you married 1 " "Quite o," answered Harwood, "and I have taken fitap to comply with that provision," "Unfortunately," went on the law- yer, fanpwtUT'bably, "your uncle saw| fit to revoke the documenit in question, substituting the testament I now hold i in my hand. I will road you the main ckuse: 'Having t>y careful inquiry' ascertained that my nephew, the said Derrick Harwood, is exceedingly avers*"! to entering Into the matrimoni- i ul state, I heT*<by rescind al>l previous I wills, and direct that the sum of 10,- 000 pounds be paid to him out of my estate if he does not marry'." "If h does not marry!" exclaimed Deuriok, annoyed, "What does that! mwn? It might moan anything." | "Precisely," responded the lawyer, I Iwaming as though he detracted ex-' quisitir humor in the phrase. "Two interpretations can bis placed upon the sentence. It may mean I sy, 'may,' that you inherit 'even if you do not marry,' or it may actually he a prohibition!" Harwood looked utterly mystified. "I don't understand," he observed. "My uncle left me 10,000 pounds on condition that I got married. That was the first will. Now he leaves me tJhnt amount 'if I don't marry.' It is therefore quite clear that whether I marry or do not marry I get the legacy!" "Ah!" remarked the solicitor, dubi- ously. "That is the point an ex- ceedingly nice legal point, too, I may say. It may be that you forfeit if you marry. You see, the phrase is 'ten thousand pounds * * * if he dn><\* not marry!" That being an expressed con- dition." "And you are inclined to think that marriage la thereby interdicted," said Den-tak irritably. "On that point I express no opinion tit is a matter for legal judgment.

A radiant and irresistible vision of Gwendoline rose before Harwoonl's e.yes, and ho smiled in u manner that the soWcdtar regarded JI.H particularly idiotic.

Graham pudding would be a pleas- ' ing and wholesome substitute for the | plum pudding which is frequently ' served with the dinner. It requires lone cupful of molasses, one-quarter | cupful of shortening, one egg, beaten, * one and one-half cupfuls of sour milk, one cupful of graham flour, seven- ' : eighths of a cupful of white flour, two-thirds of a cupful of raisins, one teaspoonful of bicarbonate of soda, two teaspoonfuls of cinnamon, one- , i quarter teaspoonful of cloves, and a ' pinch of grated nutmeg. Combine the ingredients in the order given, dredging the raisins with flour. Pour the mixture into a greased mold OTJ can having a tightly fitting lid and ( steam for two and one-half hours.

Foamy sauce is mad with the' white of o>ne egg, one-half cupful of sugar or maple syrup, one-third of a cupful of boiling milk, one teaspoon- 1 I ful of lemon juice. Boat the white of the egg until it is foamy, but not dry. j Add the sweetening gradually, and ' beat the mixture until it is creamy. Add the boiling milk and th lemon-; ' juice and serve at once. A wholesome hard sauce is made thus: Put into a bowl one tablespoon-; ] ful of butter, one cupful of sugar, ' and one tablespoonful of sweet cream, i Stir until well creamed, addling a grat- ing of nutmeg or a few drops of any preferred flavoring. When creamed, 1 add the whipped white of one egg, ! stirring it in lightly. When this is! mixed add two more tablespoonf uls \ of cream, beat well, and pile on a glass dish. Most hard sauces are in- digestible and greasy, but this is per- fectly light, porous and wholesome. Cranberry relish requires three cup- fuls of cranberries, three oranges,' three cupfuls of brown sugar, three' cupfuls of seeded raisins, three-quar-l ters of a cupful of vinegar, one-half | teasipooivful of ground cloves and three-quarters of a teaapoonful of| grouna cinnamon.

Music can appeal to the highr as' well as to the lower in man. It may ] move to high resolve, it^may agitate, it may enlighten. But these effects | seem generally to be temporary in their nature. Except in those few cases where intellectual apprehension is secured, the effect of sound is not maintained for long, 'when- its action' upon the emotions has ceased. Troop| will be played right up to the firing line, the piper will skirl up to the very moment of the charge, for mem- ory does not seem able to perpetuate the message of the sound. ' It would therefore appear, as far, as moral control U concerned, that all music can achieve is to create an at- mosphere. Regular hearing of in- spiring music must have a good effect. Continual hearing of morbid music . must have an evil effect. But really] permanent moral consequences can' only be produced by acting upon the- mind along lines imxre purely Intel- ! lectual than emotional. There is nee- essarily an intellectual element in all music, but the general appeal is pre- eminently emotional. Like other forms of art, music can create condi- tions favorable to the encouragement of moral truth and of ideal righteous- ness. But a more purely mental method of appeal is essential if the. individual apprehension of the good is to be secured on a permanent basis.
