Yes. it's a wonder. when you come to think of it, that she can smile and laugh and be as cheerful as she is. I often hear her singing when she's riding through the dale or along the road here. Miss Ida's wonderfully liked by all the motile, sir; in fact, you might say that they worsltip_her." . .-.. .. .._ - , "i can understand it," maid Stafford. almost to himself. "It must have been Kreut chantte. to her." continued the landlord, "coming down here from London to such a wild, out-ot-the-way place: many young ladies would have lost heart and Dined and fretted: but she's a true Heron. is Miss Ida. and Hue faced the thin: fairly and buckled to. as you may say.

Mr. Groves: it's a case of the children paying for the pins of their mthers." “That's it, sir." nsnented the landlord. “it takes ages to build up a house and a family like the Herons: but one maul can knock it down. so to speak.

Izosldua. he was thlnkinx of Ida. Heron, the girl whoso- strante history he had Just been Han-ulna to. There was silent-e for a minute or two. and while they stood leaning: against the doorway two men camp out of an- otbu‘ door in the inn and stood tulklnl.

"Seen that plat-e of Sir Stl-vhen‘ Orme's on the hill? Splendacious. isn't it? Must have cost a small fortune. I wonder what the old man's game is." The other man shook his head. and lauxhed. "Of course he's up to some game. He wouldn't lay out all that money for no- thing. millionaire as he is. He's always Rot something up his sleeve. Perhaps he's going to entertain some big swell he wants to get into his net. or some of the foreign urinces he's hand-in-llove with.

Stafford and Howard had heard every word: but Staf- ford looked straight before him. and made no Sign. and Howard Mutual as if he had not heard a syrilablt'. "Ho you raise nnv objection to my Ro- lng to my little bed, Stafford?” he ask- ed. "I suppose. having done nothing more than clamor about a tIver.

When Howard had gone Stafford ex-l, changed hits drew-coat for a uhnutinK-l Jacket. and with the little wullet in his pocket and his pipe in his mouth, he strode up the road As he mud. he did not feel tired--it was difficult for Staf- ford, with his athletic frame and ver- fect muscular system. to get tired un- drr any civcutmstancetr--the night wan one of the loveliest he had ever seen. and it seemed wicked to waste " by trointt to bed; so he walked on. all unconscious- lv twink in the direction of Heron Hall. The remarks about his father which had fallen from the bumnun. tstuck to him for a time like a burr'. " isn't pleasant to hear your father dotwribod as a kind of "haNatau and trickster. and Stafford would have liked to have collared the man and Rnocked an apology out of him; but there are certain disadvantages at- tm-hed to the position of gentlemen. and one of them is that you hun- to pretend to be deaf to speech”: that were not itv. tended, for your ears: so Stafford could not bash the hnzmnn for having spoken dirererrncctrully of the err-at Sir Stephen Otutte. .. _ .

Of course the grease which it produces must be carefully removed but the flavor remains. Dried pea and bean soup. for instance, are deliciously flavored if bacon is cooked with the peas or beans. l Any roasting meat can be flavored “lib slices of bacon laid over it, while it is cooking. Broiled bacon with fish or with heefsteak is appe- tiling. A slice or two of bacon cooked with string beans or peas i gives them an unusual flavor. Bacon iinvariably improves egg dishes. A llittle chopped broiled bacon can be iadvantagUustv added to any meat isalad and to some of vegetables. Ciiiiifiii] And, nowadays. you know ttttUTY doctors recommend bacon. boiled dry without burning, for small babies that have hardly imgun t,0 eat solids. But this reeommetula- tion had better come from the dot- tor that knows the baby. The way to cut bacon to advan- tage is to place it on a board with the rind down. Slice it with i. very" sharp knife down to the rind, in thin slices, but do not out through the rind, Then run the knife along the rind, loosening the slices. The rind can he used to grease griddles with. Cut in this way the slices are even and thin. Broiled bacon is probably the best from a dietetic point of view. And many persons think it the best from the point of taste. Bacon can he fried so that it is almost as crisp as broiled bacon in this way. Grease an iron pan with bacon rind and heat it to the smoking point. Then put in the slices of bacon. Tip the pan trt a sharp angle. so that the fat will run down, and with a fork keep the pieces of bacon from dropping into the fat. Turn them two or three times until they are crisp and dry and golden brown. - Broiled or fried in the way de- scribed, and served with eggs, bacon makes a dainty breakfast dish fur spring mornings.
