"Now, let us go and astonish the natives. t There was a mild Autter of eyelids as she sat down beside Warrington and began to chatter to him in Italian. He made a brave show of following her, but became hopelessly lost after a few minutes. Elsa spoke Auently; twelve years had elapsed since his last visit to Italy. He admitted his confusion, and thereafter it was only occasionally that she brought the tongue Into the conversation. This diversion, which she employed mainly to aunoy her neighbors, was, tn truth, the very worst thing she could have done. They no longer conjectured; they assumed. Warrington waa too strongly daisied by her beauty tonight to be mentally keen or to be observing as was bis habit He never spoke to bis neighbor; be had eyes for none but Elsa, unde- - whose spell he knew that be would remain while he lived. He was nothing to her; be readily unden stood. She waa restless and lonely, and he amused her. So be it He believed that there could not be an more unfortunate man than bimself. To have been betrayed by the one he bad loved, second to but one, and to have this knowledge thrust upon him after all these years, was evil enough; but the nadir of hta misfortunes bad been reached by the appearance of tbia unreadable young woman. "You aro not listening to a word I am saying!" But I warned "I beg your pardon! you that my Italian waa rusty." He pulled himself together.

Knew me? Warrington echoed. The moment he had been dreading had come. Someone who knew him! He turned his head slowly, and Elsa, who had not dropped her band, could feel the muscles of his arm stiffen under the sleeve. He held the strangers eye defiantly for a space. The latter laughed insolently If silently. It was more for Elsas sake than for his own that Warrington allowed the other to stare him down. The flame passed, leaving him aa cold as ashes. I shall tell you who he Is later; not hdre. For the second time since that night on the Irrawaddy, Elsa recorded a disagreeable sensation. It proved to be transitory, but at the time It served to establish a stronger doubt In regard to her .Independence, so justifiable In her. own eyes.

She did not wish to hurt him. She wee not a coquette After dinner be did not suggest the usual promenade Instead, he excused himself and went below. They arrived at Penang early Monday morning.

She experienced a shiver of dread aa she observed that he stepped on board the tender. She even heard him call back to his friend to expect him in from Singapore during the second week In March. But the dread went away, and pride and apger grew Instead. All the way back to the ship she held her chin In the air, and from time to time her nostrils dilated. That look! If she had been nearer she was certain that she would have struck him across the face. There will be no one up In the bow, said Warrington. "Will you go up there with me?. After a moment's hesitation, she nodded. A moment after she felt the old familiar throb under her feet, and the ship moved slowly out of the bay. Do you know that that man came aboard ?"

Well stir him up a little and have some fun. They found Warrington up In the stern, sitting on the deck, surrounded by squatting Lascars, some Chinamen and a solitary white man, the chief engineer's assistant. The center of Interest was Rajah, who was performing his tricks. Among these was one that the bird rarely could be made to perform, the threading of beads. He despised this act, as It entailed the putting of a blunt needle In his beak. He flung It aside each time Warrington handed It to him. But ever his master patiently returned It. At length, recognizing that the affair might be prolonged Indefinitely, Rajah put two beads on the thread and tossed It aside. The Lascars jabbered, the Chinamen grinned, and the chief engineer's assistant swore approvingly. The parrot shrlffed and waddled back to his cage. Fine business for a whole man!" Warrington looked up to meet the cynical eyes of Mallow. He took out bis cutty and fired It Otherwise be did not move nor let his gaze swerve. Mallow, towering above him, could scarcely resist the temptation to stir his enemy with the toe of his boot His hatred for Warrington was not wholly due to his brutal treatment of him Mallow always took pleasure in dominating those under him by fear. Warrington had done his work well. He had always recognized Mallow as his employer, but In no other capacity; he had never offered to smoke a pipe with him, or to take a hand at cards or split a bottle, it had not been done offensively; but In this attitude Mai. low had recognized his managers disapproval of him, an inner consciousness of superiority in birth and education. He had with supreme satisfaction ordered him off the plantation that memorable night Weak as the man had been in body, there had been no indication of weakness in spirit. , Occultly Warrington read the desire In the other's eyes, I shouldnt do it I shouldnt.

It winters from our southern border as far north as the District of Columbia, southern Illinois, and occasionally Iowa. The western form winters somewhat farther north.

(By I. E. NEWSOM, Colorado tural College.) Agricul- The average person does not seem to realize how many good cattle die from foreign bodies such as natjs and pieces of wire that pass from the in the second stomach forward heart sac. More cattle, particularly those which are kept up around the cities, pick up foreign bodies in their food and these are nearly always deposited in the second stomach. This stomach lies just back of the diaphragm, whereas the heart lies just In front and on the opposite side of this partition. Consequently, if one of these sharp bodies starts forward, owing to the movements of the stomach, it is very apt to pierce the heart sac. This carries infection and the heart sac fills with pus; finally after some weeks or even months the animal shows symptoms of disease and dies, even without the owner knowing the real cause of the difficulty. Prevention is not easy, but more care should be taken to see that the cattle do not eat out of the mangers or in feed lots where there are many nails and pieces of wire.

If one has a hoist attached to an engine, the work can be done faster than when a horse is used, and it is not necessary to have a horse standing around in the flies. Power can be employed very profitably in this way. An ordinary farm engine can be used for the power. The hoists come in several sizes, and the lighter kinds that are suitable for haying are not expensive. This equipment is being used in haying quite a good deal on the larger farms.
