Bhe asked expectantly. "Dear," said her lover's voice, I'm sorry that 1 cannot come tonight. May I come tomorrow evening in stead?" , "Why not this evening?" pouted Helena. "Oh, becausol" he cried Rnyly. "I'll tell you another tlmo. It's a secret Just now." "Jack! Very well Come tomor row evening if you hnve nothing bet 4cr to do," and decidedly out of tem per Helena hung up tho receiver, cut ting off Jack Henshaw's words with clicking abruptness. Up in her own pretty room Helena locked the door and sank Into a big chair beside- the window. It was bad enough that Jack should have set aside her special Invitation for that evening It was her birthday and he did not know it. Her mother had asked Bridget to make a birthday cake, and it was to be brought In dur ing the evening decorated with spun sugar and candles. , Helena's married sister, Dorcas (Wade, and Frnuk Wade, her husband, were coming over and Frank hnd promised to bring his 'cello. Jack Hensliaw's violin occupied a per manent place now on Helena's piano and she hnd plnnned an Impromptu concert. This was all to be a sur prise to Jack. Now Jack had spoiled it nil by begging off from the Invltutiou. Helena felt positive that he was go ing off somewhere with that horrid Ned Spcedle, who had a little place down on Long Island where he main tained kennels of which he might well be proud, for they bore a na tional rcputntlon. Ned Specdle also owned a low, vicious-looking gray racing automobile In which ho waB won't to teur around the countryside. Helena Brooke was positive that Jack was going off on some mad ride with Ned Speedle. Why he should do this she could not understand, be cause Specdle was not at all to Jack's taste; but he had spoken of tho wild motorist several tlraeB lately and had expressed a desire to visit the ken nels at Dogwood. The birthday evening was not en tirely a successful occasion, although Helena herself was bright and gay. Dorcas and Frank camo and played and sang, but Helena sat mutely thoughtful while the music drifted through the rooms. Bridget's entrance with the cake was a welcome intrusion, and after they had eaten of the cake, the Wades went home, and Helena was free to seek her chamber and weep into her pillow. It waB not bo much his not being there, she told herself, it was the fact he had deliberately put another pleasure before the delight of being with her. The next day she nourished a bitter resentment toward Jack Henshaw until she believed that his Indiffer ences had killed her love. Late In the afternoon Bhe rum maged through her writing desk and gathered all of Jack Henshaw's pre cious letters Into a pocket One let ter she kept out that, In spite of ber Jealous anger, she decided to keep; she could burn It after one more perusal. .Its tender words would then reveal anew to her the perfidy of man and emphasize the fortunate escape she bad had from a man who preferred the dubious company of Ned Speedlo to that of the girl he was engaged tot So Helena tied the letters in a fresh sheet of pink tissue paper, tied the square package with a bit of pink ribbon, and tucked the letters away In a drawer in her desk ready to give to Jack Henshaw when ,he should come that night. She had al ready" written a brief note to him telling him to bring her letters with him when he came. Jack Henshaw obeyed her behest to come at eight o'clock, and his frank, handsome face waB puzzled when bis eyes met the coolness in hers. "What 1b the matter, Nell?" he asked bluntly. Helena tried to be calm, but her voice shook when she spoke. "I asked you to come last night you preferred to enjoy the company of" "How did you know that?" de manded Jack. "I knew," returned Helena with more assurance "I wanted you to come last night because It was my birthday and I wanted you" sho was obliged to stop or betray ber weakness. ' "Your birthday was yesterday?" he stammered. "Why I thought it was today and I" Helena was not listening to him. She was bracing herself to meet a tragic moment '"Jack Mr. Hen Bhaw I am sure we have made a great mistake I know I have, and I am sure that I shall never be happy with you I I am sorry, but" Helena's voice faltered and was still. A great silence fell upon tho room. Helena stared at the mass of glow ing coals In tho grate. Jack Hen shaw stared blankly Into space. "Very well, Helena," Jack said quietly, almost curtly. "It la my pleusure to make you happy; If I can best do It by giving you back your freedom I will do It at whatever cost to myself." Without a word Helena drew bis Pink Paper GORDON ring from her finger and laid it In the palm he outstretched to receive It at her gesture Then, her eyes still seeking tho fire, she spoke again. "I have Bomo letters I wish to re turn to you." Sho rang the bell and whon a servant appeared she said: "Nora, bring mo a package wrapped In pink paper from my desk; you will find It In tho second left hand drawer." Tho maid departed and Jack drew from his coat pocket a small box of whlto Ivory, From the box ho took a small alabastor urn, delicately carved with flowers In relief, while on tho lid there was poised a dovo with outstretched wings. "You asked mo to bring your letters with me," he said, quietly placing the vase in her hand. "They are Id that little vase." "I do not understand," faltered Helena, all her anger and Jealousy suddely dissolved In a great terror of losing him forever. 8he lifted the lid of the vase and saw within a pile of grayish-black ashes. "I do not un derstand," she repeated. Jack HeriBlinw turned his eyes away from tho delicate beauty of her face. "Your letters to me since we have been engaged In fact every word you have written to me were too prec ious to lcuvo carelessly around, but I wanted to keep them In some form and so I burned them. The ashes of your letters to mo arc In that little vnse. They are as dend as the asheB of your lovo seem to be." Before Helena could utter a word Nora returned with the package, Bomcwhnt breathless, but her honest face wearing a triumphant expres sion. In her .hand Bhe held a square package wrapped In pink tissue paper. "Give the package to Mr. Henshaw," said Helena. And as Jack took It he weighed it in his hand with a smile. "Bather light reading," ho com mented wryly. "I suppose you have no objection to -my putting them on the tire now?" Helena nodded assent and he tore off the pink paper, disclosing a white pasteboard box. In a trice tho lid was off and there, rippling over his fingers waB an alluring mass of au burn puffs and curls that exactly matched Helena's lovely hair. For an Instant they both started horrified at tho frivolous curls that had adorned Helena's head the winter before. "Nora has brought the wrong pack age I forgot this one was wrapped in pink paper also," faltered Helena, and then her violet eyes met Jack's doubting brown ones and saw a gleam of mirth In them. "It's the funniest thing that ever happened," laughed Helena. "How about the original pink pack age that Is yet unharmed?" asked Jack'practlcally. "I shall keep that after all," said Helena, "because oh, Jack, I am so wicked and Jealous and everything; Just to 'punish me you must never tell me about where you went and what you did last evening." Sho was safe in the shelter of his arms now. "I'll have to tell you can't get out of it I thought today waB your birthday, never mind how I figured i$ out and bo last night I went down to Dogwood kennels with Ned Speedle to bring home to you that price-winning French bulldog who hasn't a curly hair on his body, but whoso name la-1-" He paused for effect. "Not Curly r cried Helena, de lightedly. "That same but he's not wrapped in pink paper," grinned Jack as he opened the door to admit Helena's delayed birthday present Modest Marie. In November, 1875, writes Marie Daahklrtseff, "The great day of the opera, I- wbb nervous all day. I wore a white muslin Jupe unle (whatever that may be) with a wide frill at the bottom. Corsage Marie Stuart and coiffure in harmony with the gown. A very beautiful affair. Every one ad mired me. About the middle of the performance the feeling swept over me that I was beautiful to distraction. At tho close I made my way out be tween two lines of gentlemen who stare themselves blind, and their ver dict Is not an unfavorable one; one feels that Coming home I looked at myself In the glass. I was like a queen, like- a portrait that had stepped out of Its frame. What a misfortune It Is that Instead of theso pen scratches I cannot draw my portrait as I was then; my marvelous complex ion, my golden hair, my eyeB black like the night, my mouth, my figure." Extraordinary Bird. Tho capture of a specimen of the "takahe," or flightless rati, of Now Zealand, has ever been accounted an event In ornithology. So far as Is known, only four specimens of this bird haa been obtained. The takahe (Notornls hoenstettori) Is about equal In bIzo to a goose, but Its wings are very small, and, unlike all of his relatives In other lands, it cannot fly. Its breast Is of a rich blue color, and Its powerful beak Is described as a large equilateral tri angle of hard pink horn, apparently on excellent weapon, The first specimen of this bird was caught In 1840, the second In 1851, the third In 1879 sad the fourth In 1900. FARMN GARDEN &w$i FOR STACKING CORN FODDER Ventilation Is Necessary to Prevent Heating and Spoiling Two Meth ods Illustrated. Corn fodder can be stacked, but It requires cato, as ventilation of the stack Is necessary to prevent heating and spoiling. A cool way Is to make a chimney In tho center of tho stuck, by placing Bomo rnlls upright In n sort of oval round a tree chaining them to- 8tack Around a Tree. lether at tho top till the stack Is com pleted. Tho rails are so placed that an opening Is left on each Bide when tho stack is built, for tho wind to blow through freely, as shown In tho illustration. Arranged In this way, It 1b nearly Impossible for tho sown fod der to become Injured by heating, It the walls of the stack aro not much thicker than tho length of tho bundles. But It often happens that such trees of tho right height aro not at bond, Using Forked Sticks. and a much improved modification Is obtained by inserting two forked sticks in the ground, about ten feet up to the forks, nnd at a convenient distance apart and placing a horizontal polo on them. Tho length of this pole will determine their distance asunder. Thon set a number of rails nearly up right or slightly leaning, with the up per ends against tho horizontal pole. Against these vertical rails the oblong stack 1b built, open at the ends, which the wind freely blows. A se ries of forks will admit of the stock being made as long as may be desired for any amount of fodder. REASONS FOR SAVING STRAW Will Be Needed for Feed Owing to Shortness of Hay Crop Keeps Live 8tock In Comfort. Owing to the shortness of the hay crop, straw will be valuablo this win ter for feed. It should be put Into the barn after throBblng. If ricked In the barnyard make ono large, long, high rick. Keep tho middle full and well trodden down, and mako a good steep roof. After the rick settles, top out, rake off the loose straw from all sides, then wire down to prevent the top blowing off. The rick should be fenced In to prevent tho stock eating Into the sides. Oat straw, If It is not damaged by rain, makes a hotter fodder than wheat straw. Mules, young cattle and sheep can be carried through the win ter on oat straw and a small dally al lowance , of grain. We always give our cows a good forkful of clean dry strnw after they have eaten their mixed feed, bavo bad an hour's ex crrlso and been watered, says tho Baltimore American. A large portion or the straw will bo paten and what Is left is used for bed ding. A forkful of wheat straw Is given to each cow In the mornlng.and also In the evening. Cows, mules and young stock have all tho straw they want to eat and havo also a good, warm straw bed. Tho straw from 30 acres of wheat and 10 acres of oats Is thus used every season; tho stock Is kept In comfort, and a large quantity of rich manure Is made, which Is hauled out and Bpread over tho grass nn fast as mado. A thick coat of ma nure makes a rich sod, nnd sod makes the corn to feed tho stock. Sheep and Potato Vines. "If you want to get rid of the weeds In your potato field," said n central Illinois farmer the other day, "turn a flock of sheep In, and they wilt mnke a clean Job of It and not harm a slnglo vine." ThlB Is only ono of many advantages of keeping a flock of sheep on the farm. Heating the Whey.

BRACKETS FOR CELLAR SHELP Considerable Work Required In Mak Ing Framework If Not Done While Wall Is Being Built Tho erecting of shelves against a cement or stono wntl usually requires, considerable work In making thq framework; this could bo replaced oj placing three-elghths-tnch Iron rods In, the mortar of tho wall when It raj built, says tho Homestead.

Nine millions a year are spent on tho maintenance of roads In England. It Is encouraging to see how quickly the pastures respond to frequent rains. High, well-drained soil Is best, but the grape will grow on most any kind of soli and exposure. Tho 'general bay crop Ib short, and tho careful farmer will save every pos sible bit of corn fodder. A silo ten feet in diameter and 20 fcot deep will bold 40 tons silage, or enough to feed ten cows seven months.
