CHAPTEK XXXIX.-(Cont'd) Whether Sigrid at all guessed at the state of affairs and arranged accordingly, or whether it was a mere chance, it so happened that , for the greater part of that day as they traveled through the beauti- * ful Komsdal, Frithiof and Cecil were together. They dined merrily on salmon, . wild strawberries, and cream, and then a walk was proposed. Cecil, however, excused herself, saying that she had letters to write home, and so it chanced that Frithiof and i Sigrid had what did not often fall to their lot in those days, the . chance of a quiet talk. "What is wrong with you, dear t old boy?" she said; for since they had left Horgheim she could not but notice that he had grown grave and absorbed. "Nothing," he said, -with rather V ( a forced laugh. ; "Let us rest here in the shade," she said, settling herself comfort- ably under a silver birch. "Roy and Swanhild walk at such a pace ' that I think we will let them have /the first view of the Mongefos." He threw himself down on the . grass beside her, and for a time there was silence. "You did not sleep last night," she said, presently. "How do you know that 7" he said, his color rising u, little. "Oh, I know it by your forehead. You were worrying over something. Come, confess." "I want to ask you a question," he said. "Do you think a man has any business to offer to a woman a love which is not his first passion?" "At one time I thought not," said Sigrid. "But as I grew older and understood things moro it seemed to me different." "And if I were to tell Cecil that I loved her, do you think she would at any rate listen to me?" "I am not going to say 'yes' or 'no' to that question," said Sigrid, suddenly bending forward and giv- ing him a kiss a salute almost un- known between a Norwegian bro- ther and sister. "But 1 will say instead 'Go and try.' ' "You think then " She sprung to her feet. "I don't think at all," she said, laughingly. "Good-bye. I am go- ing to meet the others at the Mon- gefos, and you you are going back to Horgheim. Adjo." Presently he got up and began to retrace his steps along the valley. who are always sitting alone to- gether in corners. Ah, well, there is clearly nothing for me but, as they say in Italy, to stay home arid nurse the cat. very convenient. It will be really We shall not lose Frithiof at all ; he will only have to move across to Rowan Tree House." And ultimately that was how matters arranged themselves, so that the house which had sheltered Frithiof in his time of trouble be- came his home in this time of his prosperity. As Swanhild had prophesied, they were by no means selfish lovers, and, far from spoiling the tour, their happiness did much to add to its success. Cecil," said again into her Frithiof, looking sweet, grave eyes "Do you think I really could help?" she said, wistfully. "I do not know," he said gravely. "It depends on whether, you could love me whether you will let me speak of my love for you." "There must never be any sec- rets between us," she said, speak- ing quite simply and directly. "I have loved you ever since you first came to us years ago." It was nothing to Frithiof that they were standing at the side of the king's highway he had lost all sense of time and place the world only contained for him the woman who loved him the woman who let him clasp her in his Strong arms- let him press her sweet face to his. "With you I shall have courage to begin life afresh," he said, after Lar * Three-Storey Dwelling So "who would have thought that the Linnaea gathered all those years ago should prove the first link in the chain that was to bind us to- gether forever 1" "It was strange," she replied, with a smile, as she gathered one of the long trails growing close by and looked at the lovely little white bells with their pink veins. He took it from her, and began to twine it in her hair. "I didn't expect to find it here," he said, "and brought a fine plant of it from Nord fjord. We must take it home with us that you may have some for your bridal wreath." She made a little exclamation of doubt. "Why. Frithiof? How long do you think it will go on flowering'!" "For another month," he said, taking her glowing face between his hands and stooping to kiss her. "Only a month!" she faltered. "Surely that will be long enough to read the bans'f" he said with a smile. "And you really ought not to keep the Linnaea waiting a day longer." THE END. MOVED HOUSE LX PARTS. a time. "To have the right to love you to be always with you that will be everything to me." And then, as he thought of her true-hearted confession, he tried to understand a little better the un- seen ordering of his life, and he loved to think that those weary years had been wasted neither on him nor on Cecil herself. "I shall have a postscript to add to my letter," said Cecil, presently. "What a very feminine one it will be ! \V say, you know, in England, that a woman's postscript is the most important part of her letter." "Will your father and mother ever spare you to me!" said Frith- iof. "They will certainly welcome you as their son," she replied. "And Mr. and Mrs. Burner?" suggested Frithiof, mischievously. "Never mind," she said, "they Transported a Mile. One of the most singular ideas CHAPTER XL. The afternoon was not so clear as the morning had been, yet it had a beauty of its own which appealed to Frithiof very strongly. Suddenly he perceived a little further along the road a slim ligurc leaning against the fence, tho folds of a blue dress, the gleam of light-brown hair under a sealskin traveling-cap. His heart began to beat fast, he strode on more quickly, and Cecil, hearing footsteps, looked up. "1 had finished my letter and thought I would come out to ex- plore a little," she said, as-, he joined her. ''You have come tick I" "Yes,'.' he said. "I have cyme back to you, Cecil. Do you remem- ber what you said years ago about men who worked hard to make their fortune and then retired and were miserable because they had nothing to do?" "Oh, yes," she said, "I remem- ber it very well, and have often een instances of it." "I am like that now," he con- tinued. "My work seems over, and I stand at the threshold of a new life. It was you who saved me from ruin in my old life will you be my helper now?" ever involved in the moving of houses was recently put into prac- tice in West Somerville, Mass., when a large three-storey dwelling was cut in two and moved from an eminence ten feet above the street level and set'up a mile distant from its former resting place. It was found impossible to move the house in its entirety. The cut was made squarely through the centre, and as the house was built in a very sym- metrical manner each half was an exact counterpart of the other. After bracing the house, first one sectioa and then another was moved to the new location with jockscrews and rollers. On bringing the two re-uriited divorced portions to- gether they dovetailed in such a perfect fit that it was impossible to discern the separating cut. As TRELA WHET'S TICKLE. As an illustration of the kindness "f his nature and willingness to help a friend, Sir Henry Lucy, in "More Passages by the Way," tells a story of Lord Charles Beresford which had a somewhat amusing se- quel. An old acquaintance, retired from the navy, called upon him one day and said that he had invented a new sauce which would make a fortune for them both. Lord Charles, however, declined to en- ter the sauce trade, but said "if a specimen of the product were sent to him he would taste it, and if it were found agreeable would write the inventor a letter of approval. The sauce duly arrived, and was not bnd. Lord Charles wrote a let- ter of moderate tone, stating that he had tried the sauce and found it very good. "The inventor had hit upon what he regarded as rather a striking Lord Charles Bcresford. title, and proceeded to advertise it. Presently 'Trelawnay's Tickle' ap- peared prominently in the -adver- tisement sheets of the papers, ac- companied by the following note, purporting to be addressed to the proprietor: 'Sir, I have tried your sauce, and find it excels all others with which I am acquainted. I may say that a spoonful of Trelaw- nay's Tickle made my stomach laugh. Yours faithfully, Charles Beresford.' " "Did you punish your son for throwing a lump of coal at Willie Smiggs?" asked the careful mo- ther.. "I did," replied the busy father. "I don't care so much for the Smiggs boy, but I can't have anybody in this family throwing coal around like that." . . | .

Swanhild caught his hand in hers. "You don't mean ' she began. "Oh, yes," said Frithiof, "but I do mean it very much indeed. Come,'' and he hurried her down the grassy slope to the river. "I shall tell Cecil every word you have been saying." Then, as she rose to meet them, he said, with a laugh. "This selfish child thinks we might have put it off till the end of the tour for her special benefit." "No, no," cried Swanhild, flying toward Cecil with outstretched arms.

Albania, whose future is now in question, has been compared to the highlands of Scotland La the Six- teenth century, when all the clans were in constant feud with one an- other. "Many a time," says Foster Eraser, "I have thought of similari- ties between Albania and Scotland. There arc; parts of the country re- miniscent of the highlands. The passionate lovo of country is char- acteristic of both peoples. The alertness of the Scotch highlander to resent insult is only equalled by tho quickness of the Albanian to shoot any one who may disagree with him. The quilted petticoat of the Albanian is similar to the hih- lander's kilt. And if you hear the wail of Albanian, music in tho hills you can without much stretch of imagination fancy you are listening to tho skirl of the bagpipes." Tho blood feud is the best known of Albanian institutions, but there are fraternities as well in which blood also figures. Two young Al- banians will take a vow to stand by each other through life, and the re-, lat'on established is so sacred thatj the children of the two may not! marry. Among the Mirdites youngi men who take this vow first receive the communion together and then drink wine with which a few drops of the blood of both have been min-i gled. Two such vowed friends, the story, goes, once discovered that they: were in love with the same wo man, j a Turk. Their solution of the diffi-^ culty was peaceful from their own, point of view. For they drove their! daggers together into her heart. OUR COURSE IN GENERAL OBSTETRICAL MASSAUE ELECTRO OR SCHOOL NURSINd Qualifier you (or the IK-SI position!. Study at home or attend the School.

ABROAD statement Yet literally true. The aim of man from the beginning has been to make his building materials as nearly like nat- ural tone as possible. The great labor required to quarry stone led him to seek various manufactured substitutes. The only reason he ever used wood was that it was easiest to get and most convenient to use. Wood is no longer easy to get. Like most building material, its cost is in- creasing at an alaHniug rate. The cost of concrete is decreasing. So, from the standpoint of either ser- vice or economy. Concrete is the best building material. Canada's farmer* are using more concrete, in proportion to their numbers, than the farmers of any other country. Why ? Because they are being supplied with Canada Cement a cement of the highest possible quality, which in- sures the success of their concrete work. The secret of concrete's popularity in Canada lies in the fact that while we have been advertising the use of concrete, we have also been producing^ by scien- tific methods, a cement so uniformly high in quality that the concrete made with it gives the complete satisfaction our advertisement* promised. Concrete would not have been in such universal use today, had an inferior grade of cement been supplied. Insist upon getting Canada Cement.
