' "In about three weeks, I should Pi 'think. But wait your full time, and do not go without the credentials of your position.

I All that I have Is yours, George. ij And you can write to this dear girl ' -%Tery day In the interim. Go now and tell her what I say. I had other dreams for you, as you know--they Me over now--I have awakened." ."Dear Annie!" ejacul&ted George, sf' ,v --:>M]>ear Annie!" replied the Earl with « sigh. "She is one of the daughters God, I am not worthy to call her ains, but I have sat at her feet, and learned how to love, and how to for­ give, and how to bear disappoint­ ment. I will tell you, that when Col. Baye Insulted me last year and I felt tor my sword and would have sent him a letter on Its point--Annie «stepped before him. 'Forget, and go oil, dear uncle,' she said, and I did so With a proud, sore heart at first, but quite cheerfully in a week or two; •nd at the last Hunt dinner he came to me with open hand and we ate and drank together, and are now firm friends. Yet, but for Annie, one of us "* Bight be dead, and the other flying like Cain exiled and miserable. Think «( these things, George. The good of feeing a son is to be able to profit from ; , four father's mistakes." They parted with a handclasp that Went to both hearts and as Hyde passed his mother's room, he went la, and told her all that happened to felm. She listened with a smile and • heartache. She knew now that the time had come to say "farewell" to the boy who had made her life for twenty-seven years. "He must mar­ ty like the rest of the world, and go •way from her," and only mothers know what supreme self-sacrifice a pleasant acquiescence in this event Implies. But she bravely put down •ill the clamoring selfishness of her Ieng. sweet care and affection, and Maid cheerfully: "Very much to my liking is Oor- Sella Moran. A loving wife and noble tother she will make, and if I must lose thee, my Joris, there Is no girl In America that I like better to have "Never will you lose me, mother." "Ah then! that Is what all sons •ay. The common lot; I look for Bo thing better. But see npw, I give fhee up cheerfully. If God please, I Sfhall see thy sons and daughters; and thy father has been anxious about the Hydes. He would not have a Stranger here--nor would L Our hope Is in thee and thy sweet wife, and Very glad am I that thy wife Is to be HCornelia Moran." And even after Joris had left her •he smiled, though the tears dropped down upon her work. She thought •fc the ptftgjftpta she would send her Visits from his London tailor. daughter, and she told herself that Cornelia was an American, and that j$he had made for her, with her own fiands and brain, a lovely home Wherein her memory must always " dwell. Indeed she let her thoughts go far forward to see, and to listen to t.luv happy boys and girls who _ might run and shout gleefully . through the fair large rooms, and the • sweet shady gardens her skill and, taste had ordered and planted. Thus | s .her generosity made her a partakor ' «f her children's happiness, and who- " ' ever partakes' of a pleasure has his share of it, and comes into oontact-- . not only with the happiness--but with Che other partakers of that hap­ piness--a divine kind of interest for generous deeds, which we may all :; appropriate. .1 Tho next morning Mary Damer called. She knew that a letter from . Cornelia was possible, and she knew . also that It would really be as fate- r foi to herself as to Hyde. If, as she . jsuspected, it was Rem Van Arlens who had detained the misdirected letter, there was only one conceivable . result as regarded herself. She, an t upright, honorable English girl, lov- ' leg truth with all her heart, and des- ' plslng whatever was underhand and disloyal, had out one course to take-- , she must break off her engagement with a man so far below her standard e< simple morality. So she looked anxiously at Annie as shs entered, and Annie would not her in suspense. "There was a from Miss Moran last night," sfcs said. "She loves George yet. She few lute the unfortunate letter, and tMs time it found its owner. I ttinit fee has it next his heart af thls very *"I think you ' now, Mary." $'•* "Yon mean Mr. Van Ariens ?*v.-r "Yes." "Then there is no more to be said. I shall write to him as soon as pos­ sible." "I am sorry ** ^ » "No, np! Be content/Annie^ The right must always come right. Neith­ er you nor I could desire any other end, even to our own love story." "But you must suffer." • "Not much. None of us weep if we loee what is of no value. And t have noticed that the happiness of any one is always conditioned by the unhappi- ness of some one else. Your cousin and Cornelia will be happy, but there are others that must suffer, that they may be so. I will go now, Annie, be­ cause until I have written to Mr. Van Ariens X shall not feel free. And also, I do not wish him to come here, and in his last letter he spoke of such an intention." So the two letters--that of Hyde to Cornelia, and that of Mary Damer to Van Ariens, left England for America in the same packet .. •• The tone of the Manor House was now set to a key of the highest Joy and expectation. Hyde unconsciously struck the note, for he was happily busy from morning to night about affairs relating either to his marriage or to his future as the head of a great household. All his old exigent, extravagant liking for rich clothing returned to him. He had constant visits from his London tailor, who brought with him a profusion of rich cloth, silk and satin, and who firmly believed that the tailor made the man There were also endless inter­ views with the family lawyer, endless readings of law papers, and endless consultations about rights and suc­ cessions, which Hyde was glad and grateful to leave very much to his father's wisdom and generosity. Some of the last days were occu­ pied in selecting jewels for Cornelia, with webs of gold and silver tissues, and Spitalflelds silks so rich and' heavy, that no mortal woman might hope to outwear them. To these An­ nie added from her own store of lace, many very valuable pieces, and the happy bridegroom was proud to see that love was going to send him away J with both arms full for the beloved, i The best gift, however, came last, and It was from the Earl. It was not gold or land, though he gave gener­ ously of both these, but one which Hyde felt made his way straight be­ fore him, and which he knew must have cost his father much self-abne- gation. It was the following letter to Dr. John Moran: "My Dear Sir: "It seems then, that our dear children love each other so well, that it is beyond our right, even as par­ ents, to forbid their marriage. I ask from you, for my son, who is an hum­ ble and ardent suitor for Miss Mo- ran's hand, all the favor his sincere devotion to her deserves. We have both been young, we have both loved, accept then his affection as some atonement for any grievance or injus­ tice you remember against myself. Had we known each other better, we should doubtless have loved each other better; but now that marriage will make us kin, I offer you my hand, with all it implies of regret for the past, and of respect for the future. Your servant to command, "RICHARD HYDE." "It is the greatest proof of my love I can give you, George," said the Earl, when the letter had been read; "and it 1b Annie you must thank for It" "Have you noticed, father, how small and fragile-looking she Is? Can she really be slowly dying?" "No, she Is not dying; she is only going a little further away--a little further away, every hour. Some hour she will be called, and she will an­ swer, and we shall see her no more-- here. But I do not call that dying, and if it be dying, Annie will go as calmly and sUnply. as if she were ful­ filling some religious rite or duty. She loves God, and she will go to Him." The next morning Hyde left his father's home forever. It was impos­ sible that such a parting should be happy. No hopes, no dreams of fu­ ture Joy, could make him forget the wealth of love he was leaving. Nor did he wish to forget. And woe to the man or woman who would buy com­ posure and contentment by forgetting --by really forfeiting a portion of their existence--by being a suicide of their own moral nature. The day was a black winter day, with a monotonous rain and a dark sky troubled by a ghostly wind. In­ side the house the silence fell on the heart like a weight. The Earl and Countess watched their son's carriage tarn from the door, and then looked silently into each other's face. The Earl's lips were firmly set, and his eyes full of tears; the Countess was Weeping bitterly. He went with her to her room, and with all his old charm and tenderness comforted her At that moment Annie was forgot­ ten, yet no one was suffering more than she was. Hyde had knelt by her sofa, and taken her in his arms, and covered her face with tears and kisses, and she had not been able to oppose a parting so heart-breaking and so final. The last tears she was ever to shed dropped from her closed eyes, as she listened to his departing steps; and the roll of the carriage carrying him away forever, seemed to roll over her shrinking heart. 8he cried out feebly--a pitiful little shrill cry, that she hushed with a sob still more full of anguish. Then she be­ gan to cast over her suffering soul the balm of prayer, and prostrate with closed eyes, and hands feebly hang­ ing down. Doctor Roslyn found her. He did not need to ask a question, he had long known the brave self-sacrifice that was consecrating the child-heart suffering so sharply that day; and he •"We are made perfect fering, Annie." "This Is the last sorrow that am come to iftSb father." "And my dear Annie, yon would have been a loser without it Every grief has its meaning, and the web, of life could not be better woven. If only love touched it" "I have been praying, father." "Nay, but God Himself prayed In you, while your soul waited in deep resignation. God gave you both til* resignation and the answer." "My heart failed me at the last- then I prayed as well as I could." "And then, visited by the not your­ self in you, your bead was lifted up." Do not be frightened at what you want Strive for it little by little. All that is bitter in outward things, or In interior things, all that befalls you in the course of a day, is your daily bread if you will take it from His hand." Then she was silent and quite still, and he sat and watched the gradual lifting of the spirit's cloud--watched, until the pallor of her face grew lu­ minous with the Inner light, and her wide open eyes saw, as in a vision, things invisible to mortal sight; but open to the spirit on that dazzling line where mortal and immortal verge. And as ho went home, stepping slow­ ly through the misty world, he him­ self hardly knew whether he was in the body or out of it He felt not the dripping rain, he was not conscious of the encompassing earthly vapors, Hyde had knelt by her sofa. he had passed within the velL And his feet stumbled not nor was he aware of anything around, until the Earl met him at the park gates and touah- lng him said reverently-- Father, you are close to. the high­ way. Have you seen Annief* "I have Just left her." "She Is further from us than ever." "Richard Hyde," he answered, "she Is on her way to God, and she can rest nothing short of that" (To be continued.) TALE8 OF PRECIOU8 STONE8. US Dlsmonds Were Not Known to Until the Discovery of India. Not until India was discovered were diamonds known to the Western world. The Indians called rock crys­ tal an "unripe diamond," and up to the eighteenth century India was sup­ posed to be the only country where that precious stone could be found. Yet as far back as 500 B. C. a "didactic history" of precious stones was writ­ ten, and in Pliny's time the supply must have been plentiful, as he wrote: We drink out of a mass of gems and our drinking vessels are formed of emeralds." It Is difficult to determine whence all the gems came, as discoverers took care to leave no record. The nations which traded In them were afraid of their whereabouts, being known, and even the most ancient merchants would not disclose any definite locale. "Dlamon" was the name given to a youth who was turned into the hard­ est and most brilliant of substance to preserve him from "the ills that flesh is heir to." Amethyst was a beautiful nymph beloved by Bacchus, but saved from him by Diana, who changed Amethyst Into a gem, whereupon Bacchus turned the gem into wine col­ or and endowed the wearer with the gift of preservation from intoxication. The pearl was thought to be a dew- drop the shell had opened to receive. Amber was said to be honey melted by the sun, dropped into the sea and congealed. NEED OF.R£LIGIOU8 EDUCATION. Plea tiaint and <2urious Gathered Here and There A RELIC OF ROMAN GREATNESS Aqueduct Which Still Endures after the Flight of Many Centuries. Scattered about in various parts of Europe, wherever Romans, once held sway, are the remains of aqueducts once huge and massive and even yet picturesque in their shattered great­ ness; their waterless channels mutely suggestive of % «more glorious past. Among these the tacst celebrated is the great aqueduct of Pont du Gard, near Nismes, in the south of France, which was designed to conyey to that town the waters of the fountain of Aure. It crosses the beautiful valley from rrfru™ Roman Aqueduct of Pont Du Gard. point to point of the high -hills on either side, spanning the river Gardon in its course. As may be seen by the illustration it consists of t£ree tiers of arches, the lower of which are of 80-foot span. The smaller arches sup­ port the trunk of the aqueduct, which was four feet wide by five feet in depth, and at an elevation of 150 feet above the river's bed. This was lined with a coating of cement and red clay, but otherwise the massive'stone work was built without mortar of any kind. Except for the dilapidation of the extremities this splendid structure is yet in a very good state of preserva- BIRDS TO FIQHT CODLIN MOTH. Department of Agriculture Will Ex­ periment In California Orchards. Now it is the birds that are to help in the destruction of the codlin moth --that little insect that is doing so much harm td the apple orchards of California. ' At WatsonvIlFe the ornithological department of the United States de­ partment of agriculture is working in conjunction with the university of Ca'ffopjcla to exterminate the moth, and fust how /hey are installing a lot of bird cages as part of the work. These cages', of which there are to • be twelve, will be large enough to envelop a fruit tree. Into thein it is purposed to put thirty variety of Cal­ ifornia birds, including canaries, blue- jays and linnets, and then to watch them closely to discover, upon which they feast most. At certain times the birds will be killed and their stomachs scrutinized by the ornithologists. In this way it can be determined accurately what the proportion of fruit the birds eat is to the insects they consume. And then from this it will be determined what birds are most destructive to the codlin moth and thp other de­ stroyers of plant life. If the experimenters are lucky enough to find a bird that makes the codlin moth its prey, that species will be propagated in large numbers and distributed over the state.

For startling innovations, especially in the woman's sphere of activity, Russia runs America very hard. The latest move in this direction is chron­ icled in the St. Petersburg. Press. The daring innovator is the widow of a chimney sweep who died recently, leaving half a dozen olive branches, all of them girls. Necessity, which is the mother of invention, has now In­ spired this thoughtful woman to take to her husband's calling, and in order to do the thing thoroughly while she is about it, she means to form a whole guild of female sweeps, if thq police grant the needed permission. By way of assistants, or, as Lamb termed them, "unfledged practitioners," she professees to train up girls between the ages of 8 and 12, while the full blown members of the guild would in­ clude girls and women from 14 to 35. The first appearance of these novel sweeps is fixed for August 1.--London Dally Telegraph.

In the accompanying picture Is shown a curious device for catching flies, which has Just been invented and which is said to work admirably by those who have tested It Its principal part is a vessel, which is intended to hold paste and the sides of which are provided with longitudinal slots. Over the open part of the vessel Is a cover and through the slots a cord runs. The open ends of the slots can also be covered, and attached to the vessel Is a flexible wire, which is bent In such a man­ ner that it holds the cover firmly in place. The cord, when not in use can be wrapped around the outside of the vessel, and thus in winter, when it is not needed, the trap oc­ cupies very little room. Flies, when they get near the paste in this vessel, are in a sore predica­ ment; indeed, so many are the ob­ stacles in their way, it is difficult to see how any of them can. escape.-- New York Herald. A Remarkable Lake. There Is a lake on Kildin island, near the coast of Russian Lapland, which Is composed of both salt and tresh water. The island is a palaeo­ zoic rock, separated from the granite continent by an arm of the sea, and Upon It Is a lake which seems to be entirely shut off from the sea by a Strip of land; but there must be some .Subterranean communication, for the tides of the sea are noticed in the lake, though in much diminished ef­ fect. The lake contains three different kinds of water. On the surface it is fresh water, coming from a few brooks and from the rainfall; lower down it is salt water, and at the bot­ tom seawater mixed with sulphur­ ous hydrogen gas. The liake contains fresh water flsh on and near the sur­ face, and salt water fish beneath. Dog Smokes Corncob Pipe. H.
