CHAPTER VI. Continued.
"Sir I'eter," Baiil Lady llawkshaw,
In the sanio awful voice, "1 unexpect
edly entered this room n few nionieutfc
ngo, nnd the Kllit that mot my ryes
was Arabella Htruggling in 1 1 o nuns
of this young nillliin, Itlcliai'd tllyn,
who wiih kissing her with the greatest
fury imaginable."
Sir Peter looked nt ine very hard,
nnd nftor u moment said:
"Hnve you nothing to say for your
self, young gentleman?"
"Sir," 1 replied, trying to nssumci
firm toni "1 will only nay that Uuiy
Arabella, meaning to treat me Hle her
lap-doe;, Mused ine on the iui as she
docs that beast of hersvjiiiil as an
ofllcer nnd a gentlemanl fell, called
upon pay lier bady iiml for every
smnck she pave me,fiii my nose, I pave
her two liiielt In 'flic mouth, to nhow
her thnt an o'ffcer in his majesty's
Ken service Is n man, nnd not a lap
don." "Ilo you hear. Sir Peter?" asked
Lady llavk.shaw, with terrible earnest
ness, "ile does not. deny his guilt.
Whnt think you of his conduct?"
"Tiilnk, ma'am!" shouted Sir TVter,
"I think if he had done anything else.
would have heen clean against the
r articles of war, and 1 myself would
have neon that he was kicked out of
his ina.losty'8 service. I shall send
for my solicitor tomorrow morning to
put a codicil to my will, giving Hichanl
Olyn 1,0(10 nt my decease."
At this the gentlemen roared, and
Lady Arahella, seizing (he lap-dog, hid
her face in his low? hair, while even
liaphno spilled and blushed. As for
Lady llawkshaw, for once she was (lis
concerted nnd walked out, glaring over
her Rhoitlder at Sir I'eter.
There was much laughter, Sir I'eter
Joining I"-, hut after a while tho gen
tlcmen left, nnd Sir I'eter went out,
nnd Daphne, who I saw was disgusted
with my conduct, walked haughtily
away, In spile of Ludy Arabella's play
ful protests that she was afraid to re
mnin nlono In the room with inc.
One thing had pu..led me extreme
ly, nml that was her calmness, and
oven gayely when she had no means
of knowing how Overton had come off
In the meeting, nnd 1 said to her:
"How did you know, or do you know,
whether 1'hillp Overton and Ciles Ver
non are nllve nt tills moment?"
"My your face, Dicky," she answered,
trying to give me a llllip on the nose,
which I successfully resisted. "I was
in ngony until 1 saw your face. Then
I gave one great breath of joy and re
lief, ami my play with my lap-dog,
which had been torture to me, became
delight. Mut tell me the particulars."
"No, madam," said I; "l tell you
nothing."
This angered her, and she said, aft
er a moment:
"I presume you will take an early
opportunity of telling Sir I'eter and
l-ndy llawkshaw that I saw l'lilllp
Overton alone In this house, nt. live
o'clock yesterday morning?"
"I am rpilie unaware, madam," re
plied I, 'stung by tills, "of anything in
my chnriictcr or conduct which could
induce you to think such a thing
of me."
"You made niu no promise not to
tell." she said.
"Certainly not. Mut some tliingR are
considered universally binding among
gentlemen, nml one Is to tell nothing
to the disadvantage of a woman. I
neither made, nor will make, a prom
ise about that affair; but If It Is ever
known It. will lie you or Overton who
tells it. not I."
And I walked out nf the room.
I speedily found, nfter that, my life
In Merkcley Square uncomfortable. I
felt constrained before Lady Arahella,
nnd, what seemed strange to me, little
Daphne, who had hitherto treated me
Willi greatest kindness, seemed to
take Kpllo ut me, ami her gibes and
cuu wert Id'd to bea
Nwilhor Sir
l'eir nor Lady llawkshaw notd these
tilings, but they were strong enough
to impel ine to ask Sir Meter to look
out for a ship for mo at the ad
miralty. I saw (Hies Vernon every day, nnd
he continued to come, with unabated
assurance, to Merkcley Square. We
were not anxious that the fact of the
din l should leak out, and Overton was
especially desirous to keep it quiet.
Of course, h came no more to Merkc
ley Square, ami withdrew more and
more from his former associates. lie
began to consort much with persons
of t In John Wesley persuasion, spend
ing much of his time, when not on
duty, at Oxford, where the Wesleynns
were numerous nt. the time. 1 noticed
that Lady Arabella treated Giles, and
me, also, with more civility than she
had hitherto shown. I could not think
It sincere, but attributed It to a natur
al desire to conciliate those who knew
so much to her disadvantage. Mut that
she made no effort to overcome her In
fatuation for Overton, I very soon had
proof. Sir Thomas Vernon, soon after
this, had the assurance to present him
self in llcrkeley Square, and rare sport
it was. Ludy llawkshaw, Lady Ara
bella, Daphne, myself, anil one or two
other persons were in tho Chlnoso
drawing room when ho. was ush
ered in.
Lady llawkshaw nnd Sir Thomas
were old acquaintances, nnd had been
at feud for nioro than .TO years, neith
er side asking or glvlw? quarter. Sir
Thomas had a shrewd wit of his own,
and was more nearly a match for
Lady Uawkshaw than nny one I had
yet seen. He opened the hall by re
marking on Lady Hawkshaw's Im
proved appearance, partly due, he
thought, to her tilumph In getting the
K. ('. M. for Sir Meter. This nettled
Lady llawkshaw extremely, and she
retaliated by telling Sir Thomas that
he looked younger than he did when
she llrst knew him 30 years ago. As
Sir Thomas haled any allusion to his
age, this shot told.
"And nllow me to congratulate you,
Sir ThonuH," added Lady llawkshaw,
"upon your very promising cousin,
"That's a Pity," Said Lady Hawkshaw.
Mr. Giles Vernon. Sir Meter has the
highest opinion of him, nnd he has
won the favor of the bong -tone to an
extraordinary degree."
"He may have won the favor of the
boiig-tong," replied Sir Thomas, im
pudently mimicking Lady Hawkshaw's
French, "but he has not yet succeeded
In winning my favor."
"That's a pity," said Lady llawk
shaw; "but It doesn't signify, 1 dare
say. It will not keep you alive a day
longer. And there Is your other
cousin Capt. Overton of the Guards,
lie Is what so few of our young men
are, pious and God fearing."
"And a sniveling, John Wesley
Methodist besides." snarled Sir Thom
as, much exasperated.
"Mless me, Sir Thomas," cried Lady
llawkshaw, "don't be so hard on these
worthy people, the Methodists."
I own this surprised me. for if there
was anything on earth upon which
Lady llawkshaw was uncompromising,
It was chinch ami state; and, excel
lent woman though she was, I believe
she would have been rather glad to
make one big bonllre of all the dis
senters in Kiiglaml.
Sir Thomas was far from Insensible
to Lady Arabella's charms, nnd, after
a further exchange of hostilities with
Lady llawkshaw, turned to Arabella,
She smiled upon him. nnd seemed anx
ious to conciliate him; and in a little
while 1 caught enough of their conver
sation to know that she was telling
him of the meeting between Giles and
Overton, and represent in;? that It had
been forced upon Overton by the in
sults of Giles Vernon. Sir Thomas'
response to her tale was that he did
not give a damn for either of them,
and if both had bit the dust he .should
not have been sorry.
When Sir Thomas left. Lady llawk
shaw called the tall footman.
".lennies," she said, "when that
person calls again, the ladles are not
at home. Do you understand?"
James understood perfectly, In spite
of Uuly Arabella's scowls.
It is not to be supposed that a young
man of Giles Vernon's spirit had not
been able to go throtmh with his prize
money nnd run pretty com.ideia.bly In
debt in live or six weeks in London,
and one morning, some days nfter this,
when I went to see Giles nt his lodg
ings, I found the bailiffs in possession,
titles, however, was as merry ns a
crig. because that very morning ho
had got an appointment to the Melvl
dera frigate.
it was not much after having served
In the Ajax, but It meant having that
uncertain and trying element, dry land,
for another element on which Giles
I v. us much more ut home, tg-wit, thu
St9 M
blue sea. So he sent out for a pot of
porter, and he and I, together with the
bailiffs, drank to the Melvldera; and 1
swore, then and there, that j?o with
him I would. For, In the excess of my
affection for Giles, I would have taken
almost any service to be with him.
The frigates, too, wcro more in the
way of activity, as the enemy was wary
of meeting our ships of the line, but
the frigates could go hunting after
him. So, when I returned to Merkcley
Square that day I begged Sir Peter to
get me a berth in the Melvldera. He
was pleased with my spirit, and the
very next day he went to tho admiral
ty for me. The complement was full,
but, luckily for me, one of the Juniors
got a billet more to his liking, and Sir
Meter, being on tho spot, got me tho
vacancy, nml I was ordered to report
nt once at Mly mouth.
It took me hut a day or two to get
my outfit nnd make ready to stat.
Lady llawkshaw showed me great
kindness then, and actually allowed
me to have a considerable sum of my
own money. Lady Arahella treated
mo wiih her usual Indifference, and,
on t ne day l was to go, hade nie a
careless adieu.
When the post-chnlse was at the
door nnd I went to the Chinese draw
Ing room to tell Lady llawkshaw nnd
Sir Meter good-by, Daphne was there
with them, nnd she looked ns if she
had been weeping. Sir Meter gave mo
a letter to my new captain, Vere, nnd
some words of encouragement. Lady
llawkshaw delivered a homily to me
on my duty, which I received out of
respect for her real excellence of
heart, and thanked her in a manner
which made Sir Meter my friend for
life. Daphne said not a word when
I took her hniid, but handing me a lit-
tl parcel ran out of the room. I after
ward found it to lie a littlo housewife-
ninde by her own hands.
I wen-', down to tho chaise, puzzled
at her conduct, but, looking up for
the last time to tho windows, I saw
her peering from behind a curtain. I
raised tho parcel to my lips, and, as
she saw It, a sniilo broko over her
face. My last glimpse of her was llko
an April day she was nil smiles and
tears and It was destined to remain
in my memory.
Giles Vernon was waiting for mo at
the corner of tho street. Wo were to
make tho Journey to Plymouth to
gether.
"Well, he cried, when wo found
ourselves rolling along to meet the
coach, "I have had my cake and
eaten It."
"How I envy you!" I said, bitterly.
"I have not had my cake. Kvery shil
ling of my prize money is In hank, ex
cept, about 200."
"Moor chap!" answered Giles, feel
ingly. "How much more of life have
I seen in Iindon than you! I have
seen everything, including that, queen
of hearts, Lady Arabella Stonnnnt.
She has treated mo cruelly,-the Jade!
nut I win tiring her to my hand nt
last, that I swear to you."
I longed that he might know of thnt
episode with Overton in Sir Peter
Hawkshaw's cubby hole at five o'clock
In the morning.

For Your Health.
Conquer your moods; don't let your
moods conquer you. People who give
way to moods never amount to much.
because they aro never masters of
themselves. They never know In tho
morning w hether they are going to do
a good day's work or not, whether
they are going to be a cheering or a
depressing influence on the people
around them. If they feel like being
good-tempered, they will be; If (hoy
feel like 'snapping at everybody,
they will snap.
Meople kh.i suffer from "moods'
should be careful about their habits.
They should bo regular about meals,
sleep, exercise and work. Tho condi
tion of tho health has much to do with
moods, and there is nothing that con
tributes so much to health as abso
lute regularity.
His Position.
Dean Hamsny once told of n young
Fngllshnian who had taken a Scottish
shooting, nnd thought himself quite
nationalized. Next year ho met a
genuine Scot of tho old school nt a
German watering place, nnd proceed
ed to pose as ono himself, talking of
Scotland nnd haggis and sheep's hend
and whisky, boasting of Mannockburn,
professing devotion to (jueen Marv,
and extolling Scott nnd Murns over all
Knglish writers. On taking leavo of
bis friend ho said: "Well, sir, next
time wo meet, I hope you will receive
me ns a real countryman." "Wcel,'

A Little Girl's Feat.
Little Miss F.velyn Albeo of Alna
Center may deservedly bo called a
heroine. A few days ago, while play
ing near an open well, she accidentally
stepped In. Tho Well was IS feet deep,
wiih six feet of waier. Her playniato
heard the splash, but was too fright
ened to call for assistance. Miss Fve-
lyn, who Is not six years old yet, was
equal to tho occasion nnd clambered
to the top, unaided and unharmed.
"How did she do It?" is tho general
question asked, but no one but the
lady herself knows, nnd sho wishes to
forget it. Thnt sho wasn't hurt In
some way was truly remarkable

"Our son, two years old, was afflicted

Englishman's Withering Reply.
The best of us sometimes forget the
beam in our own eyes whilo we search
for a mote In another's. An American
traveling abroad met an Englishman
with the rather remarkable name of
I'thorne, which was pronounced
Thorne.
"What's the good of the 'P?'" the
American queried; "you don't pro
nounce it, do you?"
Tho Knglishman gazed at him with
the manner of one who, whilo he
pities, is bored.
"What's the good of 'h' in 'orse?" Le
questioned, convincingly. Spare Mo
menta. Obedience.
Prompt nnd unquestioning obedi
ence la the corner stone of the foun
dation of succes in life. No man can
give orders properly who has not
learned to take them, nnd "save he
serve, no man may rule." It will b
found that the men who have won
their way to positions of power and
responsibility hnve invariably been
the men who did not reason or argue
or even "respectfully represent," but
who promptly did as they were com
manded without questioning. It is
the large man, not tho littlo man, who
recognizes a superior authority.
MAKING SUNSHINE
It Is Often Found in Pure Food.
Tho improper selection of food
drives many a healthy person into tho
depths of despairing illness. Indeed,
much sickness comes from wrong food
and just so surely ns that is the ense
right food will ninko tho sun shino
once more.
An old veteran of Newburyport,
Mass., says: "In October, I was taken
sick nnd went to bed, losing 47 pounds
in about GO days. I. had doctor after
doctor, food hurt me and I had to live
almost entirely on magnesia nnd soda.
All solid food distressed me so that
water would run out of my mouth In
little streams.
"I had terrible night sweats, nnd my
doctor finally said I had consumption
and must die. My good wife gave up
all hope. Wo were nt Old Orchard,
Me., nt that time nnd my wife saw
Grape-Nuts in a grocery there. She
bought some nnd persuaded me to
try It.
"I had no faith in it, but took it to
plense her. To my surprise it did not
distress mo as all other food hnd done
and before I had taken the fifth pack
age I was well on the mend. The pains
left my head, my mind became clearer
and I gained weight rapidly.
"I Went back to my work ngain nnd
now after six weeks' uso of the food
tun better nnd stronger than ever bo
fore In my life. Grape-Nuts surelv
oaved my life and made mo a strong
hearty mnn, 15 pounds heavier than
before I was taken 111.

IS DECLARED Ii
LIVE STOCK LAW UPHELD BY
SUPREME COURT.
ROADS MUST HANDLE RAPIDLY
Judgment Is Against the Burlington,
Which Must Pay Shipper Within
Thirty Days.
Lincoln. The supreme court holds
constitutional tho law of 1905 requir
ing railroads to carry live stock at
not less than eighteen miles an hour
on main lines nnd twelve miles an
hour on branch lines between the
Initial point of receiving to the point
of feeding or destination.
A Judgment for $1 ,R40 In favor ol
Wilbur L. Friend ngainst tho Burling
ton railroad for delay in live stock
shipment is affirmed by the court, prO'
iding the plaintiff files a remmittitur
of JM0 in thirty days, each to pay his
own cost3. The opinion of tho court
was written by Judge Root, concurred
in by Judge Fawcett in a separate
opinion, and Judge Harncs dissenting.
Tho shipments in question were
from Murwell to South Omaha during
July, August, September and October,
1'JiMi. The delays complained 01
were from one to fifty two hours. The
penalty provided in the law I R10 per
hour per enr for each hour Consumed
Deyonu tne time limit, even it no
damages nre caused by the delay.
The judgment for $210 ordered re
mltted was for delay in shipping one
car from Murwell to South Omaha
the delay being caused by stopping
and feeding nt Lincoln. If tho ship
ment had continued without delay
tlic stock would have arrived at South
Omaha Sunday. Deducting the delay
nt Lincoln, there wns a delay of only
one hour on the shipment. The court
gives tho railroad company tho
benefit of tho statute relating to the
running of trains on Sunday and holds
that the plaintiff was not entitled to
recover on this cruse of action.
Judgment on nil olh.r causes of nc
Hon is afllrmed.
The court finds that tho defendant'
failed to prove nny affirmative de
fense save that as to its delay in feed
Ing nnd caring for stock nnd It did so
in deference to the statute prohibit
Ing tho operation of trains on Sunday.
The defendant, having been given
the benefit of this defense, it is nnnes'
sossary to determine whether tho
statute precluded nny other defense.
The legislature may provide by
general law that a shipper of live
stock may recover liquidated damages
from a public carrier. The constitu
tion does not prohibit the legislature
from Increasing the common law
liabilities of common carriers, nnd
courts will not declare the statutes
void on complaint of a carrier because
In some hypothetical case the law if
applied might Work a hardship.
The stntute does not interfere with
or regulate Interstate commerce.
Where a delay occasioned by unload
ing stock to feed, water nnd rest nnd
to hnve continued the shipment prob
ably would have compelled the ear
ner io nave operated its trains on
Minuay and liave resulted in the
delivery of live stock on tho Sabbath
a Judgment based on said count will
be reversed.
1...1 i, , .
.inline uarnes, in (lessenting, says
ttie statute is unconstitutional for sev
eral reasons. Me asserts that the
opinion holding the railroad company
not liable for delay which occurred
on Sunday at feeding yards is nn
nmendincnt to the law nnd nmounts to
judicial legislation.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get tho
desired stiffness, it is usually neces
sary to use so much starch that tho
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys tho
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou
ble can bo entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly becnuso of Its great
cr strength than other makes.
