Whether Geoffrey was right or wrong, 1 cannot pretend to say, but I must confess that I was glad of his choice, for since my parents' death I bad lived with him, and the work be preferred made us free of the countryside. Indeed, of the four year preceding the matters which I am to tell we bad not spent six months at his Iondon house, but had traveled winter and summer, at home and abroad. We visited many places and saw all manner of beauties that few men see, for often enough my cousin would paint at dawn, when the dew lay thick upon the meadows and the mountains stood up like a rood screen against the sky. Of such was my education, after I left my school, and though I might have done better to go to Oxford Instead, I learned to speak German and French with a pretty good grace and to shore with the peasants of Kurope their several hopes and fears. I was In as fine a condition as a man of two nml twenty may be, and my only care was the knowledge that very soon now the agreeable life I was leading must come to an end. This by my cousin's decree, for Geoffrey was trustee of my fortune, and though he was only some twelve years older than I, I had to a great extent to do as he nald. And at twenty three, he declared. I must take to work: "and from then," said he. "till you're thirty your allowance will be exactly as much as you earn. Earn five pounds a week, and I'll give you another five. You've got to make good. I was brooding on this one morningfor my birthday was the first of October, and June was very near out when I heard the sound of voices a little way off. This was unusual enough, for. save for the birds and beasts, an Austrian forest at dawn Is a lonely place: but what was strnnger still was that the voices were Kngllsh, and coarse at that. Geoffrey was painting a vista two furlongs away, and Barley, his man. was half a mile off with the Itolls. it was. therefore, plain that no one was talking with them, and I made my way quietly forward to see and hear whnt I could. Almost at once I saw hushes which seemed to me to be Screening the edge of some bluff. I could hear the sound of labor and the sob of a man as he wielded some heavy tool. Then a spout of oaths startled the Bllence. and two men were cursing e.ich other, the one alleging that the other would be his death, and the other Insisting that the one had got In his way. A third man spoke. "Suppose yon go on now," "But he'll do me In In 'a minute, lavln" about with that pick." "The world will be the cleaner." said the other, and stifled a yawn. "Till then, get on with vonr work. I say get on" that paper was ... a shoemaker'? me out from . . . complete with Its en velope bearing my name and address the address of the Inn at which Geoffrey and I were lodging some five miles off. I saw Dewdrop finger the letter and find It dry. Then he looked from his find to the spot at which it had lain. Then he lay down and drew him bill, which bad followed self forward, parting the bushes be fore hlra exactly as I had done. Plain ly, the man was no fool. Me wished to be sure how much John Spencer hart seen John Spencer, of The Three Kings, Lass. The next moment he was up and was whipping back to the dell. The murder was out. As we hurried back to the Bolls, I told my cousin my tale, and though he made no comment, I saw that lie was perturbed. Arrived at the car, I saw him take out a pistol and slip It Into his coat. Ten minutes later we slid into the yard of the inn at Lass. As we stepped out, my cousin turned to his man. "Put her away." he said. "Then take the other pistol and come to our rooms." As we entered the inn, I heard him order our breakfast to be served in a quarter of an hour. Our sitting room was directly above the archway which led to the yard, com mantled and its old the street below. My cousin strolled to the bay and stood looking out. "When Barley conies up," he said, "I want you to tell your story over again. Six eyes are better than four in a matter like this.' I was glad of his words, for Barley was a very good man and true as steel Temple Square RaUt $l.SO toSS.OO The Hotel Teaupla Squat has highly deairablH friendly atro phercYou will always find It Imanacw ulat. auneemsly eomforlable, thoroughly sarowbl, mi can teira for uaderslaad why thla botal tat ad RECOMMENDED also apptvelat whyi Tea IT a mark of at iatiscttoii te stop t thli kamt,tml ERNEST C ROSSITER.

Put Fate works in a curious way, and at the present moment I'm thinking much less of their lives than I'm thinking of yours. You do see the point, don't you? As long as you live and move, they go in danger of death: and they're four to three." ''Yes. I see that," said I. "If we were at home," said Geoffrey, "we should go straight to Scotland Yard.

Manure as Top Dressing on Wheat, Winter Barley One of the best ways of using bnrn-yar- d manure during the winter months is to apply It as a light on either wheat or winter barley, says 0. T. Coleman of the Missouri College Manure applied in tills of Agriculture. manner should be hauled preferably when the ground is frozen or tirm enough that It can be driven over without difficulty. Top dressing these crops during the winter months at the rate of from three to five tons per acre will greatly reduce the amount of winter killing on these crops, will give them an earlier start in the spring, and will materially Increase the chances of a stand of clover or grasses that may be seeded with the small grain. Where manure is applied as a top dressing on small grain,' It Is Important lhat it be spread eveuly. This can be done best with a manure spreader, but there is a possibility of doing a satisfactory job by hand. Where it is spread by hand, It would be well to run over the field with a harrow with the teeth set at about a 45 degree angle shortly after it Is spread, or sometime ueiore vigorous growth starts In the spring. Leaching from manure that Is applied in this way is much more apt to go directly Into the soil than when this leaching takes place from manure that Is piled or scattered about the feed lots or bam. xJA'Zil DORNFORD YATES CjK breathless, exciting Will C. Barnes, veteran soldier, cowboy and forest ranger, is the man. If we remember rightly, who saved the Texas longhorn from extinction, says the Country Home. Once the mainstay of the Southwestern cattle Industry, the longhorn had become too tough for the modern palate and too ornery for the modern cattleman, who prefers to punch cattle of gentler breeding. The longhorn had too much head, and his spread of horn was sometimes so great that It took a wide gate to let him through. Hut tracing back to early Spanish importations lie played his part in the winning of the West, and it is fitting that he be pre- served, like the buffalo, as n historical exhibit.

More curious than ever. I lay down on the ground and. wriggling cautiously forward Into the hushes which screened the men from my view. I fihn.ll never foreet the scene. Directly below me. in the midst of a sparkling dell, were five grown men Two, with pickaxe and shovel, were digging a hasty grave: the sods had been piled to one side, but a third man was taking the earth and casting It Into a brook. A fourth man was leaning against the trunk of a tree smoking a cigarette. And the fifth iHy Idead beside him. This spectacle shocked me so much that a moment or two went by before I had collected my wits: then I knew that the man had been murdered, for his gay. green, belted smock was heav ily stained with blood.
