I nev«»r sleep on like this." Miss Varney laughed. "I am glad you have, my dear; you looked worn out last night; I told them not to disturb you. Have you had a good night?" Mary looked rueful. "Much too good, I'm afraid. I will get up at once." "They're bringing your breakfast up to you. The fire has been lit al- ready, you see; it shows how soundly you slept." "It seems impossible I" Mary had bce:i so sure that she would not b'.' able to sleep at all, and now for luarly twelve hours she had slept drcanilessly. A Mni ing maid brought her break- fast, and set it on a small table close to the (ire. It was all most daintily served; tho little teapot was silver; the tray cloth of line linen, embroid- ered with thL- Brttherton crest. Mary looked at everything with a sort of awe. She had been used to such plain homeliness all her life. There was somelhir.^r luxurious! and delightful in this new daintiness of surroundings. She enj(>yc'i her meal thoroughly; she felt n^w eneigy and anticipation thrilling licr a.s she dres.- •-•d. The duU- n'-'::s of yesterday had gone; the .sun was shining; sparrows twittered to each other in the ivy that covered the face of the old house. She went d.iwn thj wide staircase wondering what the day would bring forth. In the hall t-h- met David Hre'heil;in; he stoppid when he saw h<'r, and held out his hand. ".'VumI Florence tells me that you have broken the record for a long sleep," he said, smiling. "I hope you f-fl all the better for it." She flushed a little. "I am afraid y(iU must al! think me horribly lazy; I am always up so early, ns a rule. And on such, a fine morn- ing, loo!" "Would you like to go out? I am juvt tjoing round the gardens; will you come with me?" "I >.luiui(l love to." She was all eagerne.Hs to see the wcll-remenibered places; she would rather r<'-vihit them with |)avid than anyone, seeing that she could never walk theie again with his brolher. A momentary waxe of sadn 'ss swept through her heart as she went back upstairs for a hat and coat. It se«'ni- «d, somehow, a mockery to be gla<l that Ihe sun shone, and that she should be here at Red Orange, when one re- membered that lom'ly grave .some- where in France, and the horrors that were daily being enact<'d there. But one cannot lie altogether sad when the sun is shining, .-ind iK'fore she had gone far with David she found herself chatting and talking with liim .almost happily. "Aren't you very proud of your bi-Hiitiful horn*'? I think it niu.st be wonderful to know that you are one of a family who has iive<l hire for geiieratioiiB and gtmerations; that it all U'longs to you--" "I am proud of it, even though I shall probably be the last Bretherlon to live here." She look«'d up startled. "What do you mean?''

"It's not very probable; I'm not the sort of man women care for, even if I wished them to." He iinlled, looking down at her. "Oh, but you musn't think that," she told him impulsively. "It's only just that yqu haven't met tho right j wonvan yet ; some day she will come along, and then â€" " "Yes, and then?" he echoed. "Well, then, all the world will seem changed and different; you will woh- dcr how you ever managed to live without her." His gray eyes searched her face. "Is that how one feels when one i.s in love?" She looked up and <iuickly away afcain. "Oh, Iâ€"" She broke off. '1 ami afraid I have been talking nonsense," she said distressfully. They had reached the end of the jiath skirting the lawn, and David held open a little gate leading to a kitchen garden and paddock beyond. "If it is nonsense, it's very charm- ing nonsense." he said, smiling. "You make me feel that I have missed a great deal by iK'ing a bachelor." She shook her head. "I didn't mean that; it isn't all roses when you care for a person very much." "Not even when they care very much for ycu in return?" "But sometimes they don't," she told at all. I am Ju6.t deceiving you all along." She went to the door of the stables and stood looking across the sunny garden with ©yes that saw nothing. David came to stand beside her; there was a sort of compassion in his face. "I hope you will be happy here â€" vdth us," he said. "I hope you will believe that I am anxious to be your friend. If there is anything troubling you, I wish you would tell me, and let me help yoiu" His voice sounded kind and sincere; there was nothing but earnest sincer- ity in his eyes; for a moment she longed to take him at his word, and make a clean breast of the whole miserable story, but something pre- vented her; she even forced herself to laugh a little, though the tears rushed to her eye-s. "You are very kind; I will net for- get. But â€" but there isn't anything troubling me â€" there isn't anything at all." .^nd now she was no longer looking at him. She moved out into the yard again as if to'-prevent further conver- sation. (To l)e continued.) €ood ilr TO SUIT THE NEEDS OF THE SMALL BOY.

When desiring to stain lighi-coloi"e4 wood a good mahogany color, a meth- od that produces the best results, while at the same tim.e requiring only one coat of the stain is as follows: Before applying the stain, procure some permanganate of potash. Dis- solve this in enough water to make a good rich reddish brown shade, and apply it to the wood with a clean brush. When dry, apply mahogany stain or stain and varnish combined. If a very silky finish is desired, use botli stain and varnislvthen very gent- ly rub down the varnish with fine sand- paper or powdered pumice, afterward i'liplyiug a coat of litiuid wax as a Hiial finish. This use of the pennan- gaiuue of potash as a first coat furnish- es a good body color. Teacher- Hobby?" Bobby • les. .Miss."
