The con- lies around to the west. "We have brought some luncheon." ex- plains Jeanne,. "Hal always guts so hungry." "28h? remarks Hal, "only me, of course.'" and we generally run into that little cove there." 7 - _ "All right." says Vane, turning to his sail, and presently, with a masterful sweep, Joanne brings the Nancy Bell ar- ound. and they pass swiftly into the sheltered nook. Hal hands out a suggestive-looking basket, and then Jeanne, standing on tip- toe, prepares to leap, but a strong hand is laid on her own. Vernon Vale lowers the sail. seizes the huwm-r. and Jumping mto the shallow water, draws :Z-eo bout onto the sand. "You will get your feet wet," says Vernon Vane; "and this is not the sum- mer time." __ "And he lifts her by the elbows onto the dry sand. - _ Then Ilal extracts from the square basket, first a packet of sandwiches, then more slowly, and with some import- aan. a tempting pie. "Which." he says. with a grin. "I found straying about the pantry. There's a bottle. of claret for you, Mr. Vane - Uncle John put it in with his compli- ments-and there's a lump of cake for me. which I shoulda't have got if aunt had guessed the pie was in the bottom of the hamper." Jeanne laughs as she spreads a. small cloth on the pebbles. "Hal apears to be trying his hand at the pirate and smuggling business in real earnest." said Vernon Vane. "Yes, I'll take some pie, though the re- ceiver is as bad as the thief." Jeanne ttNo vouehsrafeq to share Hal's spoils, and presently the seagulls look down wonderingly dt these three young people who can sit and eat their lunch- eon in the open air, as if it were really summer time. Hal is not the only one who is hungry, and a fashionable belle would have look-- ed at Jeanue's hearty lunch with won- der and envy. But there is no London belle here. Hal is too much occupied to pay any attention to anyone but him. self. and Vernon Vane is the only one to criticise JeanmG appetite. He. lying again» a. rock. does watch her covertly. watches her with enjoyment and admira, tion which are something more than ar- tistic. Upon him falls the spell of which he was conscious last night. Is it her beauty, that moves him so. or her inno- cence and unworldlinesas? Should he. if he were to go back to that world which he has toresworn, forget her'. As he asks himself the question, Hal lays down the knife and fork, and looks around at the Bea. "There’s a stiff breeze springing up," he an, "and it begins to. feel cold." .ii1 must be gang," 313's Jeanne. looking up at the sky, which has been gradually growing overcast by little “sen“??? . at_I ' A L -fiidprf iiriie, do not take long to pack, and in a few minutes the hamper u on board; but while they hare been 1tpteh- (min, In“. n nun.

It hag been easy work running, but thei have to tack now, and the sail flaps he wards end forwards an the wind catches her. Jeenne’s hands grasp the helm more firmly, end her eyes are gravely set upon the cliff. She does not once look toward Vernor Vane, until a sudden gust blows the sail straight against the mast, and nearly sweeps the boat to the water's edge; then she says, quietly: "Ttiere's going to be a storm.” Vernon Vane looks u at the suddenly darkening sky and Q,ll',." "You know the coast?” he says. "Yes," says Jeanne, gushing back her hat and grasping the helm; "onee we round the point we run before the wind}: There is no hesitation in her voice, and certainly no fear, though even while she has been speaking, the sea has grown lumpier and shows its foam-teeth, and the Nancy Bell heels over to the water's edge. "Now we shall see her got." exclajms Hal, excitedly. "Jeanne will Show Mr. Vane what the Nancy Bell can do!" The warning is not a1to.eether unneces- sary, for every moment "Iii,' wind grows pore fierce and the sky more threaten- mg. "Sit quiet," says Jeanne, "Mr. Vane does not want to swim back to the cliffs." Now, indeed, the Nancy Belle cleaves through the water, riding over the crest. ed wares and splitting the foam into two hissing. angry currents. Suddenly a big drop of rain falls into Vane's pipe; it is the commencement of the shower. With the rain comes darkness, and then both are swept away by a. sudden gust of wind, which reveals the cliffs frowning before them. “Take carey' says Jeanne, "shorten the trail.' "Ay-ye," says Vane, quietly, and then he rests his head on his arm and looks at her. He knows that they are now driving at a fetrful pace straight for the most dangerous coast in England. One false turn orthe helm, one falter of the little hands that grasp it so firm- ly, and over they go on to one of the jagged rocks over which the sea breaks nnceasingly. But Jeanne's eye does not quail, nor her hands falter. With her soft. red lip" set firmly, and her eyes all aglow with excitement, she sticks to her post. " "The channel must be narrow here," says Vane, crawling nearer to her. Jeanne nods. "I know it. I am Mooring for that point there." and we nods toward the cliff opening. But the next instant he calls tn Hal: "Look to the sail!” and lays his strong hand over hers. "We are drawing too near on," he says, "if that is the point. Let me help you." Joanen does not refuse, and shifts her hands. but his are still touching them, and his face is close to her heart. Once, as she stoops down, her hair, blown loosely by the wind, sweeps lightly against his cheek. and she feels his hand press more tightly on hers. She knows, too, that his eyes are fixed on hers, " though she docs not look toward him, and there is a strange throbbing at her heart which troubles and bewilders her, even in this intense moment, and she grows pale. , , , . c!’ _ I "JeaGe-Jeanno!" she hears whisper; "you are not afraid?” _ . _ - n. I .. I If "Afraid? no," she replies, half turning her face to him, with a wistful look. "No, not atraid." "What then?" he asks. Joanne looks around with dreamy eyes in which there is something of the startled expression of a wild animal when it first hears the cry of its hunt. ers, and feels that it will soon be at bay. "I do not know," she says. tremulou's- 1y. "1 cannot hold the helm." "Leave it to me. Jeanne." he says. and as he grasps the tiller with one strong hand, he draws her downward with the other. "Leave it to me, Jeanne." 7 _ .. ' "Make for the point," she murmurs, in his ear, then sits with lowered head that nearly touches his breast. Straight on her course rushes the Nancy Bell. watched by anxious eyes from the shore, which strive to get a glimpse at Jeanne, and marvel at mis- sing her from her place.

Is it fear? Jeanne cannot tell. Be- fore her the cliffs loom as if in a dream; all she feels is the warm, firm, yet ten- der grasp of the strong arm--all she hears above the wind is the musical "Jeanne-Jeanne'. " So she sits, drooping like a rose. bent by the storm, until the Nancy Bell, with one impetuous leap, rushes her keel upon the shore.

In this magnificent apartment are col- lected the Lambton family and their guests, to wit. the Honorable Mr. Fitz- james, Mr. Bell, Jeanne and Hal. and lastly, none other than Vernon Tame. How it has come to pass that he is here, leaning against a carved mantel piece and listening to Maud Lambton'a falsetto. he himself would have been pul- zled to explain. .. " . . u At a lime distance from him sits Georgina, listening to Mr. Fitljaniel lisping some story of fashionable life, and not very distant is Jeanne. Maud and Georgina are in full evening dress, looking very thin and very showy; Jeanne wears a. plain frock of some soft material. covered by a simple muslin, through which her white neck and round- lllluusu "lll‘ ll uxl I‘ n---. -u»..- ___- V ed arms gleam sandy. Maud and Gear. gina's hair are arranged in the latest Parisian fashion and frizzlet1 and Puff- ed; Jeanne’s soft, silken bands are tight- ly coiled. and as smooth as the natural ripple will permit. It is the same Jeanne, and yet not the same Jeanne, who crouched in the bow of the Nancy Bell, and quiver: ed beneath the touch and the whispered words of the fisher-clad man who now leans so stalwart and distinguished-look- ing. listening to the last new ballad as weakly sung by Miss Maud. Three weeks is not a lengthy period in one's life, and yet Jeanne is changed. She is more silent even than of old. and more dreamy. and the wistful. questioning eyea. which visited her face for the first time when Vernon Vane played that song without words, is upon it now. Made Sound and Strong by Dr. Williams Pink Pills. If your blood is weak, if it is poor and watery, a touch of cold and influ- enza will settle in your lungs and the apparently harmless cough of to-day will become the racking eonsumptive'st cough of to-morrow. Weak blood is an open invitation for consumption to lay upon you the hand of death. The only way to avoid consumption and to strengthen and brace the whole system is by enriching your blood and strengthening your lungs with Dr. Wil. liams' Pink Pills. They make new. rich, warm blood. They add resisting power to the lungs. They have saved scores from a consumptive’s graveuuot after the lungs are hopelessly diseased, but jwhcre taken when the cou h first attacks the onfeebled system. “are in iiiiiti7il proof. Mrs. Harry Stead, St. Catharines, (Ont., says: "A few years ago I was attacked with lung trouble, and the doc- tor, after treating me for a time, thought t was going into consumption. I grew pale and emaciated, had no appetite, was troubled with n hacking cough, and I felt that I was {not going towards the grave. Neither the doctor's medicine nor other medicine that I took seemed to help me. Then a good friend urwed me to take Dr. Williama' Pink Pills. is, the time I had used four boxes it was plain that they were helping me. I began to recover my appettie, and in other ways felt better. I took six boxes more, and was as well as ever. and had gained in weight. I believe Dr. Williams' Pink Pills saved me from a consumptive‘s grave. and I feel very grateful.? Now, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills build up the strength in just one way-they actually make new blood. That is all they do, but they do it well. They don't act on the bowels. They don't bother livith mere symptoms. They won't cure any disease that isn't caused by bad blood. But then nearly all common It" eases spring from that one 1n'ttts-tr--aT) aemia, indigestion. biliousness. lrsuir aches. sidcachcs. baekaehes, kidney tron-l hie. lumbngo. rheumatism, sciatica. neu- ralgia, nervousness, general weakness. and the special secret ailments that growing girls and women do not like to talk about even to their doctors. But you must get the genuine with the full name. "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People," on the wrapper around each box. If in doubt. send the price-50 cents a box or $2.50 for six boxes, to the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co.. Brockville, Ont., and get the pills by mail postpaid. Automobiles as Cares. In England medical men are beginning to look upon the automobiles as an ex. cellent aid in the cure of consumption. This is due mainly to the fact that per- sons riding in motors must do so in the open air, the additional advantage be- ing the exhilaration which goes with it. According to English physicians, per- sons suffering from tuberculosis would benefit greatly by sitting on the front seat of an automobile and riding " least a hundred miles daily. High speed is not so essential, fifteen miles an hour being ample. In such a journey the mouthfuls of fresh air inhaled by the sufferer would be very beneficial. Of coure, where the patient is weak, such a long journey should not be under- taken, but the distance travelled could Linen, uuv uh. _.._.-.-"' ee-ee-e--- "_"---"- be gradually increased u the patient grows stronger. _ -. .___, ___--_..._L:.._ -“ 'i.-. a Sufferers from consumption are taking to this treatment with much nlacrity and it is said that the benefits derived from these motor trips are soon npplrent.

The plan is to poison the worms with Paris Green or some other arsenic mixture be-) fore they enter the fruit. The trees; should be sprayed (1) a few days after the blossoms fall; and (2) about the middle of August. for the second brood of larvae. An additional spraying ten days or two weeks after the first will, in most eases be productive of much good. It is advisable. of course. to use the arsenic mixture along with Bordeaux to control the apple scab fungus at the same time that the eodling moth is be- ing threatened. For the scab two addi- tional sprayings are necessary-one be- fore blossoming and one in July. The Bordeaux-Paris green mixture is prepared according to the following for- muU Copper sulphate or blue stone ..4 lbs. Fresh lime ...... . .., ....... 4 lbs. Water ...... ... ... . . .. 40 gal.

The blue stone is dissolved in 15 to 20 lions of. unto; in a barrel, and in 'full' barrel the lime is slacked care-l fully and 10 to 15 gallons of water nrel added to make a mi k of lime. Then the/ contents of the two barrels are poured into the may barrel through a strainer. Finally the Paris green is made into a paste with water and(put into the bar- re along with the Bor eaux. It in very necessary that the agitator should work while pumping is going on so as to keep the Paris green well distributed through- out the mixture. Use a good spray pump and spay the trees carefully at the times mentioned above. The practice of banding trees is mm- mendable. but everything taken into pccount is more expensive than sprly- ing, and is moreover, actually harmtul unless the bands are examined Ind the. larvae destroyed every ten days or two weeks during the latter half of June and all of July.
