One evening while' Pamela sat stitching at her embroidery in the lit- tie parlor at Hillview her brother laid down the book he was reading. lit a cigarette. and said suddenly. "What of the Politician. Pun?" Pamela drew the thread in and out several times before she answered. "The Politician is safe so far as pm concerned. Only last week I wrote and explained matters to him. He wrote a very nice letter in reply. I Why, Lord Bidborough had been at David's own eollege--that done we: recommendation enough.

DOUGLAS “Lewis is a relation as well as a very old friend. Naturally he is irw terested. I should think it could easily be managed. The boys will go to school. Mrs. M'Cosh will stay on at The Rigs, Jean will see something of the world. Imagine the joy of taking Jean about! She will make every- thing worth while. I don't in the least lexpeet her to be what is known as I i'suceesa.' I can picture her at a ball Ithinking of her latter end! Up-to. Mate revues she will hate, and I can't see her indulging in whatever is the latest vrtistic craze of the moment. She is a very select little person, Jean. "Oh, I don't know," she 'lairDq don't know. Of course it can't go on indefinitely, but I do hate the thought of going away and leaving it all. I love the place. It has given me a new feeling about life; it has taught me contentment: I have found peace here. " I go back to the old rest ess, hectic life I shall be, I'm afraid, just as rest- less and feverishly anxious to be happy as I used to be. And yet, I suppose, I must go back. I've almost had the three months I promised my- self. But I'm going to try and take Jean with me. Lewis Elliot and I mean to arrange things so that Jean can have her c ance." "Why should Lewis Elliot have any- thing to do with it?" Lord Bidborough regarded his sister with an amused smile. "I alwags did regard the Politician as a fa ulous monster. But tell me, Pam, how long is this to continue? Are you so enamored of the simple life that you can go on indefinitely living in Miss Btstheate's parlor and eating stewed steak and duek's eggs?" Her brother's tone brought a sur- 'Tiled l.ook. into Pyp.ela's eyes.” think. on the whole, he is much re. lieved, though he expressed polite re- gret. It must be rather a bore at sixty to become possessed of . wife, own though she might be able to en- tertain well and manage people. . . . It was a ridiculous idea always; I see that now." Pamela dropped her embroidery frame, looked at her brother with a puykd trosyn:an.d trave a_long trftth., E] In Persia, in the old days, the baker who profiteered in bread was baked in his own oven as punishment.

Mr. NBwlywed-"Thia lettuce tastes torN1. Md you wash it?" . . You realize, of course, that Jean is an uncompromising little Puritan? Mercy is as plain as bread and honor ‘is as hard as stone to Jean-but she lhas a wide tolerance for sinners. I lean imagine it won't always be easy to be Jean's husband. She is so full of compassion that she will want to help every unfortunate, and fill the house with the broken and the unsuc- cessful. But she won't be a weari- some wife. She won't pail. She will always be full of surprises, and an in- finite variety, nnd find such numbers of things to laugh about. . . . You know how she mothers those boys-- can't you see Jean with babies of her own? . . . To me she is like a well of spring-water, a continual refreshment for; weary souls.", Pamela' stopped.

Sometimes the smallest chip will spoil the jar for another season of cold-pack canning. If you have plenty of time put the jar upside down in a pan, pour in enough cold water to cover the rubber ring and put the pan over the fire, leaving it there until the water is hot, but not boiling. This loosens the seal, and the cover slips off easily. To prevent chipping the glass cover or edge of the jar when opening cold- packed fruit or vegetables, try slip- ping the edge of the knife under the rubber ring rather than between the rubber and the cover. ment. Oh, I hope my Plans will work out. I do want Jean. ' "But, Pamela--) want Jean too." Lord 1)idborough had risen, and now stood before the fire, his hands in his pockets, his head thrown back, his eyes no longer lazy and amused, but keen and alert. This was the man who 1f2,'y'ted impossible thintpr-and did t em. "I would serve for her as Jacob served for Rachel, and not grudge one minute of the time, but the nuis- ance is I'm twelve years older than she is. I ean't affoad to wait. pm afraid she'll think me too old." "Nonsense, a boy would never do for Jean. Although she looks such a child, she is a woman, and a woman with a brain. Otherwise she would never do for you. You would tire of a doll in a week, no matter how curly the hair or_fiaw1ess the complexion. "She has never mentioned you to me," said Pamela, "and that's a good sign. I don't say you won't have to wait. I'm retty certain she won't accept you wgien you ask her. Even if she cares-and I don't think she real- izes yet that she does-her sense of duty to the boys, and other things, will hold her back, and your title and possessions will tell against you. Jean is the least mercenary of creatures. Ask her before you leave, and if she refuses you appear to accept her re- fusal. Don't say you will try again and that sort of thing: it gives a Irl, a caged feeling. Go away for a Uh": and make no sign. I know what I'm talking about, Biddy . . . and she is worth waiting for." "Ah, my dear"-Pame1s held out her hands to her brother--" ou musn't mind if just at first. . . . R') see, it’s a great while ago since the world be- gan, and we've been wonderful friends all the time, haven't we, Biddy?" They sat together silent for a minute, and then Pamela said, "And Pm actually crying, when the thing I most wanted has come to pass; what an idiot! Whenever I saw Jean I wanted her for you. But I didn't try to work it at all. It all just happened right, somehow. Jean's beauty isn't for the multitude, nor her charm, and I won- dered if she would appeal to you. You have seen so many prett girls, and have been almost surgeited with charm, and remained so calm that I wondered if you ever would fall in love. The ‘manoeuvring mamaws,’ as Bella Bathgate calls the ladies with daughters to marry, quite lost hope where you were concerned; you never seemed to see their manoeuvres, r clears. . . . And I was so thanm1, for I didn't want you to marry the modern type of girl. . . . But I hard- ly dared to hope you would come to Priorsford and love Jean at sight. It's alley! simple_as-a fairy-talt." 7 "Oh, is it? I very much doubt if Jean will look at me. I sometimes think she rather avoids me. She keeps out of my way, and hardly ever ad- dresses a remark to me." But all. will love the plays and pie- tures, and shops and lights. And she in W been ntrroad---pieture tint! Pamela, after one startled look at her brother, dragped her eyes and tried to go on th her embroidery, but her hand trembled, and she made stitches at random. l "Pam, dear, you don't mind? You don't think it an unfriendly act? You will always be Pam, "4 only sister; someone quite apart. he new love won't lessen the old." Then are world: of things ta Show her.

Knead and squeeze the blankets, and if rubbing be neces- sary let it be done lightly, For such large articles as blankets the hand- operated vacuum is excellent. They are best used with the tub placed upon the floor. If double-sized blankets are being washed one should be put in at a time, but two single blankets can be treated at once. Allow about a quhrter of an hour for washing each blanket, but longer if very soiled. When you wash a blanket take time to do it correctly, for lt is quite easy to impoverish blankets in the wash. If a washing machine is used a tub should be filled with hot water-about 110 degrees-in which plcnty of shav- ed soap or soap jelly is dissolved to form a good suds.

An old-fashioned and‘ effective remedy is made of a mixture: of one ounce of corrosive sublimate,; one pint of alcohol, one-quarter pint of turpentine. This is painted in the cracks of the beds and walls with a feather, In making yeast, for which I use my own starter, I have found it a good plan to measure into a crock or bowl a couple of tablespoonfuls of flour and the required quantity of salt and sugar for the batch of bread. Over this I pour the boiling potato water, adding the mashed potato. If there is not enough liquid to make the right quantity, I add water, pour the mixture back into the kettle and bring to a boil. After it has cooled to the lukewarm stage, I add my starter and proceed " usual. The woman from whom I got my start two years ago told me of this plan, and said she had not renewed her yeast in five years.
