This is part- ly due to the clear sun«)iine on a higli mountain side, partly to the more invigor- ating air, partly to the more frequent rain- fall and perfect drainage. The largest and roughest leaf grown at an elevation of 7000 feet is much superior in flavour to the tiniest tip grown only 2000 feet above isea* level. All teas used in the *'SALADA'* blends are grown from 4000 feet to 7,500 feet ele« vation. The Irademark "SALADA" is a guarantee of quality.

Mhor here entered, shouting that the car was waiting to take them to the station to meet the Macdonalds,' and Jean hurried away. An hour later the whole party metj round the dinner-table. Mhor had been allowed to ait up. Other nights he consumed milk and bread and but- ter and eggs at 5.30, and went to bed an hour later, leaving Jock to change his clothes and descend to dinner and the play, an arrangentent that caused a good deal of friction. But to-night all bitterness was forgotten, andldhor J beamed on every one. n Mrs. Macdonald was in great form. I She had come away, she told them, leaving the spring cleaning half done.

It's only ten days since you left Priorsford, and to-morrow you're to be married. I think it was the War that taught us such hurried ways. â- . ." She sighed, and then went on briskly: "I went to see Mrs. M'Cosh before 1 left.

I see the two of you reforming the world, losing all your money, probably, and ending up at Laverlaw with Lewis and me. I don't! She was wonderfully calm about it, and said that when people went away want to know what you talked about, my dear, but whatever it was it has his sister in a letter, when face to face with her he would have been dumb. Pamela, on hearing the news, rush- ed down from London to congratulate Jean and her Biddy in person. She was looking what Jean called "fear- fully London," and seemed in high spirits. "Of course I'm in high spirit*," she told Jean. "The very nicest thing in the world has come to pass. I didn't think there was a girl Jiving that I could give Biddy to without a grudge to England you might expect to hear ^, anything.

"IjOta of girls would have married Biddy, but I wanted him to haVe the best, and when I found it for him he had the Bense to recognize it. Weil, it's all rather like a fairy-tale. And I have Ijewis!

The old vicar left his garden and offered to show them its beauties, and Jean fell in love with the simplicity and the feeling of home- liness that was about it. "Biddy," she whispered, "what a delicious church to be married in. You could hardly h*lp being happy ever after if you were married here." Later in the day, when they were alone, he reminded het* of heKwords. "Why shouldn't we, Penny-plain? Why shouldn't we?
