Brilliantly she entertained her guaru that night. She caught her husband's eyes as they gased at her in proed satisfaction, as he would look at hie horses, she thought, her lips curling scornfully. At last the guests left and sho sought her room. Excitemept flushed her face, her eyes flashed brilliantly. Seeing her reflection in the mirror she rejoiced that she was beautiful. Suddenly the door opened and she received a quick summons to Bessies room. "Miss Bessie is sick, ma'am. I have sent for the doctor. Sick; what is It? Esther pried. 'Croup, I am afraid," waa the answer. All night they worked over the little girl, but it was apparent to all but the distracted mother tthat she must go. The sweet eyes opened, a smile wreath ed the baby lips as the mother raise! her a sigh and all was over. "Bessie, oh, Bessie! Esther cried. A weight oppressed her, some awful coldness seemed to grip her throat. She opened her mouth to scream, hut no Bound came.

She had beauty, wealth, love, yet the look of inter desolation on her face was pitiable to see. All her friends nad said that Esther Waite had done well. She had everything she wanted. Why wasnt she happy? A little time before with a party o friends she had visited our northern lakes. One day she hail taken a row boat and growing weary had let it drift into a little inlet. She lay back against the seat. All nature seemed singing the glad aong of life and Esther, too, was glad. The heat and fatigue of rowing and the gentle dip of the boat gradually lulled her to sleep. Very beautiful she looked as she lay there, the sun shining on her golden head and her profile turned toward the shore. Thus Emerson Shore found her as he came down to the lake for some water.

In at least one respect this experiment has been an unqualified success; the people take a decided interest in it, arc benefited by It, and do their utmost to facilitate tbe work of tbe carriers. The farmers urge, and in some cases demand, the continuance of the service. The delivery is most easily and effectually performed by tbe aid of the bicycle. A wheelman, carrying in a'bag swung from his shoulder from thirty to forty pounds of mall, covers a route of about twenty-si- x mlleB in from three to four hours time. Two carriers are employed on such a route. Every farmer along the route usually provides fur tbe carriers convenience a box, which is placed near the road on a post or a tree. Of course the bicycle cm be used only when tbe roads are good enough to afford wheeling. As a general thing, it is available only after the first of April in the spring, and until snow or mud renders the roads impracticable In the fall. Even within this period there are Intervals when tbe carrier can not ride the wheel. At such times horses and wagons must be resorted to, and tuese Increase tlie coat and time taken to deliver the mail. Indeed, an autuorlty on the subject declares that good roads and rural free delivery of mail go together, and that dally delivery can be depended on only when the road bed la in good condition.
