If he did him that wrong, he was quickly undeceived --for the very next day Hugh Wall- raven, the father, called at the hut of the poor day-laborer, and asked the hand of his young daughter, Ellen Dale, for his son and heir; and the poor man, with a blush of indignation, refused it!" You astonish me!" bid "Hugh Wallraven then offered to settle fifty thousand dollars on the maiden, if her father would permit the match; and the pauper father refused!' : "You astound me! You positive- ly do! What could have been the poor man's motive--enmpity?"- - "No! the poor creature wept bit- terly while refusing his daughter to the son of his best friend and pat- ron---and such was Hugh Wallraven to Thomas Dale.'"' . "Perhaps this Constant Wall- raven was. a love-child, and. the pcor but honest and sternly correct father of a family upon that ac- count despised and rejected the alliance !" "Did I not say Hugh Wallraven} had never been charged or even suspected of crime or vice ! No! Constant was the son of his marri- smell of dried herbs, and agreeab- ly warmed by a bright and cheer- ful fire. Soon as we had bathed and changed our clothes, Mary- came and conducted us down to supper in one of those comfortable and agreeable rooms that young and tasteful housekeepers are so fond of perfecting. A. coal fire glowed | redly through the polished steel bars of a large grate, the bright light of a solar lamp, standing up- on the tea-table, flashed down up- on an elegant tea-service of chased silver and white china arrayed up- on a snowy damask cloth.

We are near Cedar Cliffs now. In a few. minutes we shall reach the house." It was dusk. There is something mysteriously me in approaching in the dusk of the evening a strange country house, in which I expect pleasing to to stay awhile. As the carriage stopped before the house about to become our tem- porary home, we looked out with vague interest and curicsity in the blackness of the night; but we could diseover but indistinct and shadowy shapes, suggestive of a massive dwelling-house, without buildings, and trees and. hills, and a back-ground of lofty mountains, | looming dark, darker, and darkest, into the murky sky. There was such an absorbing obscurity swallowing up everything. There was such a shadowy interest--such .a stimulus to curiosity--such a field for imag- ination in all so vague and unde- fined. It is the charm of the un- known--the glamor of the terra in- cognita, that attract us. It seems like dream-land ~ like childhood come back. And _ tnen there is the cheerful anticipation of exploring the new scenes, by day- light, to-morrow, after breakfast, of which we think now, and of which we shall dream to-night. We are just agreeably chilly, hungry, and tired enough to anticipate thorough enjoyment from the glow- ing fire, the hot supper, and the soft bed that shortly awaits us; and curious enough to wonder in, de- tail what each will be like. At the end of a long journey, com- mend me to an arrival at a country house at dark, where every sort of comfort will be enhanced by the most affectionate welcome. Gently picasing fancies and feelings, like these, half forgotten childish emo- tions of wonder and curiosity about small things, possessed my mind, chasing from it completely all dark and weird imaginings awakened by the Phantom House in the Vale of Solitude. Almost immediately after the car- riage stopped, we saw a fight glance ing behind the closed Venetian blinds of the house, and immeédi- - ately the front door opened, and & -Jantern emerged and came to mect :, followed long, dark sha- that flitted, fantastically, hi-. nd thither, behind it..

It seemed too deep, too great to leave him a thought of. strugg ing against it, or concealing rt. y habitual politeness, feelings of } pitality or benevolence, made him very kindly attentive to me; and I saw anything so sad, so moy- as his smile. Indeed, beginning to be pain fully, strongly interested in this young gentleman--more than I like to be in man, woman, erechild, over whose destiny I can exert no control for their happi ness. et Uy Os never jing to tears, I was already Mary, at the head of the table, of 1 fui face, so full of health, intel li- gence, and cheerful bonhommie, must exercise a wholesome if an un- seen, influence upon her companion. An accident that occurred that evening, further excited my wonder and interest. We ha left the sup- per-table, which was cleared away, and gathered around the fire, which had been replenished, and glowed brightly, when 4 knock at the front-door was heard, and soon af- ter the parlor-door was and an old man stood within it. He was very shouldered; but stooping, with sorrow or infirmity. He heavily while with his hand leaned gold-headed cane, right hand he tremblingly lifted from his venerable head his hat, which he held in his hand, reveal- ing by the action a brow, plowed deep by sorrow or remorse, and hair white as the driven There was an air of deep humilia- ltion, of piteous deprecation, in his lwhole "manner and appearance, lmest painful to witness in "one so biand: | $0 venerable.

Will you come?' repeated the old man, as he tremb- led over his staff. 'Will you come ?"' '"'Agsuredly. Mary, love, order the carriage. Dying at last. Thank God." Mary had hastily left the room, and soon returned with his cloak and hat. : Fairfield quickly donned them, and, accompanied by the old man, left the house. After they had gone, Mary Fair- field walked about in a state of half-suppressed excitement such as IT had never seen her betray. She seemed to have forgotten me al- together, for which I could not blame her. Presently, suddenly stopping, she asked, "Dear, are you tired?' : 'Feeling myself and somewhat de Veg et Se Rae fries "J will attend you to your room," she said, and taking up a candle} 'that she herself had left burning on the side-table, when she came ak, she : to. really fatigued trop, answered ire | Mrs. He wes of medium] immediately. left \then, "I can 1, | dear," We then took our places at the | It was impossible, however, | ot | sorrow upoi} tenance of this young man. | yemnant of cheerfulness by the | strongly | And when I turned from his| wan, spiritual countenance, to that thought that her happy, youth- | suffering opened, | tall, very broad-! either | was! clothed in deep mourning--his left | on a stout, | snow. and, in every other respect, | Wallray- | "Thank God!' fervently exclaim- | 'needs lots of clean water.

This made excellent fuel, though some people might ob- | ject to the odor. Canadians, and these of other nationalities, to whom the idea was strange, were inclined to smile at the rude fur- nace, while they could not but ad- mit the shrewd economy of using straw where it was burned anyway. Time works its revenges. The Minnonites are vindicated. There is now on the Western market a sheet-metal straw heater, for which it is claimed that it saves work, costs nothing for fuel, and needs to be filled only twice a day. The di- rections read: Simply remove the detachable cylinder, fill it with straw, place it again in position, and it will burn twelve hours with- out attention.--Farmer's Advocate. | | ; LIVE STOCK NOTES.

The sum of $200,000 was added to the rest account, bringing the total up to $2,200,000, and $102,448.40 was placed to the credit of profit and loss account. There has been a very satisfactory growth, in de- posits; these show an increase of $4,420,000, or 17.44 per cent. over the increase of the preceding year, the present year beginning with a total of $29,813,194. The circula- tion also showed a large increase, the average being about $2,500,000, though during the year it reached the highest figures in the history of the bank--namely, $3,543,000. There is a very large increase in the assets of the bank as compar- ed with the previous year. The increase in this respect was $5,- 104,000, as against 'an increase in 1908 of $1,139,000. .
