I ll Kit a lone time tince the Muley low had jumped the pture fence. J'.y making hrr wear a poke (or Untie Farmer Green had taught her it behave liertclf. Hut there came " ftwtr Som.thiii4 kept the Muley Cow from WaDowtofl nothr mouthful day, finally, when the made up her mind that just one more jump wouldn't do any great harm. There had been a ttrong wind during the night, which had whipped a good many red apptrs off the tires. It ua when the Muley Cow smelted them that the decided that the would jump the fence. She wanted to get into the orchard before anybody could pick up the apples and take them to the cider null. So over the fence went the Muley Cow. And the had a pleasant time eating apples untii something hap pened to put an end to her feast. Something kept the Muley Cow from swallowing another mouthful. It was lucky that Johnnie Green felt hungry. He went to the orchard himself to fill his pocked witli ap ples, when he taw the Muley Cow his own Muley Cow acting in the strangest manner. She was stagger ing about among the tree and mak ing the queerest sounds. Johnnie Green ran quickly to the barn and called to his father. "There's something wrong with the Muley Cow!" "Where is she?" his father asked him. "In the orchard!" Johnnie said. Farmer Green caught up a whip a whip with a long lash and a lim ber stock. With, Johnnie follow ing him he ran nut of the barn, across the yard, and into the orchard. "Don't whip her for jumping the fence!" Johnnie pleaded. His father never said a word. "I wish I hadn't told hint." Johnnie Green panted. He was doing his best to keep up wijh his father. He thought he would rather lake a whiDDi'ne himself than have the 'Muley. Cow act one. But he didn't know how he could ever make his father feel the same way. He had noticed that his father reached for the whip as if he fully intended to use it. When Farmer Green reached the Muley Cow he did a queer thing. At least it seemed so to Johnnie. Instead of whipping the Muley Cow, his father ran the whip-stock down her throat! "What's the matter?" Johnnie asked. "Why do you do that?" "She's choked- over an apple," his father explained, "and I'm trying to shove it along." Well, it wasn't a great while be fore the Muley Cow seemed to be quite herself again. "Rough treatment!" Farmer Green remarked. "But it .certainly fixed her." s "Why did she choke?" Johnnie wanted to know. "She tried to swallow a whole ap ple," said his father. "Whenever you facd such things as apples or potatoes to a cow, you must always chop them into pieces. Now drive the old cow to the barn," he told Johnnie. "She'll have to wear her poke again. When the Muley Cow heard that she wondered if she hadn't been very foolish. v (Copyright,. 122.)

"Heavenly I" Netta taid. "We've been unlet and miles, and the coun try was lovely all the way out, and the woods full of bluebell." "It must be like that down in Dil bury now," Kliabeth taid wilfully, and for the nrt time for weekt the ihounht of Walter Sneath and won drred what he was doing. "Aren't you going to May to tea?" N'etta asked Roy, ton a he carried her upstairs. "Jt will he ready in a minute. Do tlay, Tat!" Tin afraid 1 mustn't, thaiikt, I've po: lettert to write, and an appoint ment this evening." He glanced at his watch. "It's later than I thought. I'll look in tomorrow." He turned to F.lizahcth. "You will not be going till the afternoon to morrow, 1 suppose?" he asked. Elizabeth flushed. "Madame taid she would call for me about J o'clock." "Then I won't tay good-bye now: I shall see you in the morning." "What appointment has he got, I wonder?" Netta asked fretfully. "I think he might have stayed to tea." Elizabeth felt terribly guilty. She made the tea, and did all she could to make Netta comforatblc; she listened to her accounts of the after noon with feigned interest, but all the time her nerves were jumping, and her heart beating fast. Sup posing Netta did not want to be left, what excuse could she make to get away? One moment she was hoping that something would happen to pre vent he, from meeting Royston, and the next it seemed the most tragic possibility on earth. Unconsciously Netta paved the way for her. Her foot was worse than ever, she complained the jolt ing of the car had done it no good. She wished she had not gone. "I'll go to bed," she said at last. "What's the use of sitting up with nobody to talk to." It was. half-past 7 then. Eliza beth dared not look at the clock. Her head ached with nervous excite ment, and at last her pallor struck Netta with some sort of remorse. In her own way she was fond of Eliza beth. "You poor chicken, why don't you box my ears for being such a snappy beast?" she said.. "Tuck me up and eo out for a walk. I shall be all right now I'm in bed, and it's quite a nice evening." If you like me to stay with you " Elizabeth faltered. . But Netta insisted, and at 10 min- uut rt 8 niibrtli ttole out of the hutue, feeling at if h had com muted a crime. It v,it quite light ttill. The day had been beautiful, and the tpnna evening wat mild, with toil breeic blowing. Elizabeth had walked half the y before he taw a tanicah, and it w nearer V o'clock than H before the reached the reUurant. "He won't have waited," the told hcrelf in panic, but he had, and wat at the door of the cab ahnott before it had ttopprd. "1 wa afraid you would havt gone," Elizabeth taid iiupuUivcly, and then flushed in confutiou, "No." taid Roytton quietly. He led the way to the tame table at which they had tat the night Elizabeth rait away from her auut't house. "Thit is where we tat before," the taid. meeting hit eyet. v " Yet it teetnt a long time ago, doesn't it?" Elizabeth did not antwer. "I've ordered dinner, Roytton went on. "I know you don't like be ing asked to choote."" She laughed. "I never know what to order, everything alwayt lookt to dreadfully expensive," the taid timply. "On Friday Mme. Senestit ordered everything and I am ture it nmt have cost pounds." Rovston frowned. "Of course, you lunched with Farmer. Well, how did you get. on?" "I don't like him; I knew I shouldn't. "Isn't that rather a sudden judg ment? Why don't you like him?" "I don't know; he was very kind. I think he tried to be nice to me: he gave me a lot of lovely flowers." ' "Flowers?". VYes. violets. I gave them to Netta as soon as I got home." "That was kind of you." "No, it wasn't. I just didn't want them." She looked at him with a little pucker between her browt, "Mr. Royston, aren't people differ ent?" "How do you mean?" "It't difficult to explain; perhaps you'll laugh at me, but, do you know, I hated shaking hands with him. and I've never felt like that about any one before." His eyes dwelt upon her consid erably. "I am afraid I prejudiced you against him," he said. "You must try and be fair to him, and forget what I said. Start again, as it were, and only remember how much he is going to do for you." Elizabeth picked up a fork and began tracing the pattern on the tablecloth. "I keep trying to remember," she said with a sigh, "and all the time I find myself wishing that it wasn't he who is doing it at all some one else." "You must try to look upon it purely as a business arrangement," he told her. "After all, that is what it is. He invests a certain amount of money in your future, and hopes to get a good return." "I know, but it makes me feel as if I don't belong to myself any more, but tQ him and Mme. Sen estis." - . ..' . ' V V '. , "That is sheer nonsense," Roy ston said roughly. "You might as well say that all these last weeks V"U Imeu'l belonged to yurflf, but to ine and and Netta.' h ad4 td hurtirdly. "That' ihuVrent. I didn't mind that." Elizabeth answered timply. Koytton't Uie termed la lighten with a pain beneath the innocence of Ehzabeth'i eye. "I don't tee why it thoulJ be dtf ftreut." he taid with n effort. And then, all at once, Elizabeth lie. It wat became the lotcd him; with every breath of her body, with every beat of her heart the loved hint. And to it made all the diflerence, and alwayt would to the end of hrr life and hit. The blood ruthed to her face in such a burning torrent that for a moment the had to cover it with hrr hands to hide from him, and the wmgt of tugedy beat very dote lo them both during the silence that followed. For, man of the world at he was, Roytton had read the answer to hit question in her eyet, and for a little while he could not trust hinuell to tpeak. (raallnord la Tha Ha Tamarraw.)
