FRUIT MEN IN
CONVENTION
Revelsloke Welcomes Visitors
- Constitution and By-Laws
of B. C. Fruit & Produce Exchange Finally
Banquet and Drive,
TMie 22nd ol May, 1007, will ever be
remembered in Rovelstoke as a red
letter day, and will be also a marked
date in tbe history ui the fruit growing industry uf Lritlah Columbia.
The need nf proper and commercial
handling uf frtrtand producethrough-
out this Province has been surely lelt
and as past years have proved that the
fruit crop uf B. C. haa never been as
widely or as advantageously distributed as it ...ight and should have been,
tbe efforts and energies of all who are
interested in the welfare uf the fruit
growing industry have at last been
brought into cluse tuuch in the same
channel, theuiitcumenl which was the
calling nl the cunveiitio-i on Wednesday tu organize an exchange which
shall handle all II. C. Iruit and produce, and make a judicious and a.upl •
distributiun nl the same throughout
lhe Dominion, thereby cm.sen ing
every ounce of Iruit and getting the
growers its lull value. Not only does
this action not only protects the grower
but satisfies the consumers, who will
have a regular and steady supply of
fruit nnd produce without the market!
being glutted and on the other hand
starved. Fruit will not be permitted
to accumulate and thus deterionte iu
quality before it reaches lhu consuni
ers, thereby giving the growers bad
returns, nur will it he shipped to the
consumers in a fcn.i-r-jtten and noncommercial condition. At a previous
meeting of fruit Growers' Associations
of the province this matter was fully
taken up with tl.e result that an exchange has been formed with capable
ollicers iu a central and convenient
headquarters—Revelstoke—which will
be iu immediate touch with all growers as well as the best markets for
their produce.
At Wednesday's convention ail dis
tricts except tlie Okanagan weie represented, thi* latter who at the previous meeting to discuss the scheme
and its carrying out, were perhaps the
most enthusiastic of any, and who
were greatly responsible for tie choosing of Revelstoke as the headquarters,
evidently decided tbat delegates should
not be sent, through some difference*
uf opinion nr other causes tun trivial
tu bear much weight. However, when
the delegates were called tn order l.y
thc President cf the B. C. Fruit Growers' Assoc'atiou. J. Johnston, the thiol
Iruit growing centres were well represented. Tl.e session enlivened at
10:45, the following delegates heing
present: .1. Johnston, (chairman,)
Nelson; J, J. McCallum, Salmon Arm;
11.10. R. Smythe, Revelstoke; T. Mor-
l.iy, Nelson; Dr. M. S. Wade. Kamloops; P. Wilson, Chilliwack; W.J.
Brandritb, Prov. Stcy. 11. 0. Fruit
Growers' Association.
The president alter welcoming the
ilelegateB, briefly stated the objects ol
the convention and the steps that led
tu its being called, pointing nut that
the Iruit growing industry had reached
such magnitude in the province that
definite action sliould lie taken fur the
proper and economical handling of all
fruit and produce. He very much regretted that the Okanagan had taken
exception to tlie convention and their
non-attendance showed that they
failed to realize what the real meaning
of the new scheme conveyed.
Mr. Brandritb then read tlie com-
munieatioiis, several being (rom tho
Okanagan country, regretting their
inability to attend tho convention;
these were received and hied.
The chairman said that the Exchange must be pushed and that cooperation was iieceseury if the scheme
was tn be successful.
Mr. McCallum pointed out that
starting with a lew members, the expenses would be just as severe as if
many had joined; hut that if the husiness was run carefully it would succeed and that the other associations
would fall into line.
Tbe chairman said that the Okanagan was organizing at this time an
Exchange of their own, but he felt
that they would, when competition
commenced, lall in line with tl.e main
exchange.
Mr. Morley said tbat tho Kootonay
Fruit Growers' Association heartily
endorsed tbe scheme and be felt tbat
go d results must come, and that
commercial men must grapple it with
and handle it in an ollicial manner.
Dr. Wade then moved that the
articles ol incorporation be produced
for discussion.
Direction and districts to he covered
were Ihen discussed, and Dr. Wade
said that an official stamp (cr shipping
was not wise this year, as there would
be no packers. The bylaws were then
adopted as amended. A deputation
Irom the Board ol Trade and local
Fruit Growers Association waited on
the delegates, inviting Ihem to a
luncheon to be followed by a drive
round the city. This was accepted,
tho chairman thinking the deputation
and expressing pleasure at meeting
Ihem, t'uestions relating to voting
by letter to save distance traveling
•nd expense wore taken up, but the
proposition was turned down. The.,
followed llie election of Provincial
ullicen aud director, Iui the year, the
l-.llo.ving being elected to the directorate: J.Jol.nstoiie.picsident; 11. K.H.
■Smythe, vice-president; J. MoCallum,
I'. 'Wilson, Dr. W. S. Wade. .V. ,1.
Brandritb was appointed secretary-
treasurer pro tem until a socretury-
inaniiger was engaged. The meeting
then adjourned and the directors nit
in session.
Communication* were received Irom
applicants lor the position ol secrelury-
manager, but the board of directors
decided to wait a week before making
the appointment. Dr. Wade moved
that advertisements for a secretary-
treasurer be placed for one week iu t.ie
Vancouver Wurld and NewB-Aiivortiser
Nelson News, Winnipeg Free press
and Revelstoke Mail-Hkuai.h. The
secretary treasurer was Instructed to
notify all local associations to send
in Iheir subscriptions.
H. N. Coursier then in trod need
Mayor H. A. Brown to the directors.
His Worship in meeting the board
welcomed them to the City, saying
that Revelstoke was well Buitod
headquarters for meetings of every
kind, and was gratified to sec that it
bad been chosen on this occasion. He
said that combined effurt in the fruit
growing lin • would benelit the whole
province. Revolstoke herself had
excellent soil and Iruit growing will
flourish when more land is cleared up,
He thanked them lor choosing Ilevelstoke as their headquarters and hoped
that the new exchange would prosper.
—(Cheers).
Mr. Johnston-replied, stating that
Revelstoke had been chosen owing to
its central location and quick means
ol communication.
Thc session then adjourned till 4
p. ni.
A luncheon was held in the Uniun
Hotel Restaurant in hunur of the
delegates, the City Council, Board ol
Trade and Local Association heing
hosts. Ahout forty sat duwn tu as
noble and sumptuous repast as Revo
stuke has ever Been, rellecting great
credit un the caterer. Mayor Brown
took the chair, the delegatus being
surrounded with citizens to look afler
their wants. W. Armstrong, president
of the Local AsboMillion, and who had
previously welcomed the delegates
during the session, addressed the
assembly, calling on Mayor Brown to
open proceedings.
His Worship eaid that tliis new
move was in the right direction and
would advance the welfare of B.C and
put her in the van of fruit growing
countries of tl.e world He welcomed
the visitors and said that Revelstoke
took keen interest, in fruit growing,
and cm grow as good fruit as any
in the Province (cheers).
Atthe close of the luncheon Mr.
Johnstone, the president ol the new
exchange thanked tbe city for their
welcome. He said ho regretted that,
so lew delegates had come, but those
thatjhnd.reprosented the larger portini
of the province. The season will show
tlie superiority ol B. C. fruit, and that
its representation must, he preseived.
B. 0 fruit bad taken highest prize in
London at exhibits and that the
sample that recoiv.d tbe medals wore
ordinary commercial produce and nol
especially grown for exhibition. B.C.
Iruit can always demand beet prices
an.l take a big lead in tbo wurld's
competition (cluers). Coiniucrci.il
specimens iu London had ore it d a
great impression and B.C. is being
advertised in and inquiries coining
from all quarters. " To day," lie said
"markod tbe beginning of a big
luture and tne industry wuuld surely
llourish." (cheers). The delegates and
citizens tlien drove round tbe city,
visiting tlio different lunches ami
orchards to the west and east. The
delegates were much impressed with
the country, its soil, location and
great posubilities lor fruit growing. A
visit was paid to the Hiiiiie-I.awso..
ranche, Williamson's Lake, where
hundreds ul fruit trees are ready for
planting, The delegates were enthusiastic over tlie possibilities of the
property, especially for strawberries
nd expressed much surprise that
more land was not cleared und cultivated. Alter the drive the delegates
held an alternoon session disposing ol
general husiness and work in connection with the clerical part of the organization,
It was agreed tlmt it was loo lute to
handle the strawberry crop this year
but tl.e apples could be handled. A
resolution was passed settling th. date
for considering tho appointment as
secretary-manager on June 12 and the
directors to meet ut Revelstoke on that
date. The seorctuiy was instructed to
procure the seal and printing by-laws,
etc., and to arrange for incorporation.
Shipping boxes and crates wore
discussed and legal sizes adopted.
Selling fruit by weight instead of
measure was agreed upon as best for
both growers and consumers. The
delegates conveyed their best thanks
to the Board of Trade, City Couucil
and Local Association lor their welcome to RevelBtoke. A photo was
taken by Benson uf the delegates in
session ub a momento ul the occasion.
This ended the lirst convention of
one of the greatest and most important movements along commercial and
progressive lines that has taken place
in B. C.
Cauiary, May 24.—Fred. Knglisli,
local agent ol tbe C.P.R., has been
served with four notices ol infringement of the Lord's Day Aot by the
C.P.R. The summons specify that
the offence is lor work in tho yards at
Claresholm, Nanton, and two actions
in Macleod.
This iB the first action in Alberts
arising out of the Lord's Day Act, and
probably the lirst case against the
C.P.R. It is Bald that work similar to
that done in the places complained ol
is done every Sunday in Calgary. Thc
i offence occurred on March
81st.

GREAT COMMERCIAL CENTRE
The Fruit 4 Produce Exchange of
British Columbia, Limited, has been
safely and -uccessiully launched on
the sea ol commerce and there only
remains a few minor details to complete to render this new movement,
perhaps it may be called organization,
one of the leading commercial and I
and developmental corporations in'
British Columbia, Carefully thought
out and discussed pro and con many ■
weeks and months ago, the scheme
was brought to a head on Wednesday i
when live eights ol tho province oil
British Columbia wai represented at
tbe convention here, and lorn.eil what
will be of manifold and incalculable
value to the whole province and
Domini..ii as well. Comment linn'
been ripe here regarding tl.e uncalled
lor absence ol tl.o Okanagan delegates,
who were among the first to propose

that he was .lead. Whereupon he
laid down iln- lifeless body, ran to
the head of the kitchen stairs and
shouted to the i-hof: "Do it all in
oil! Tl..- butter-mon is .l.-;,.l!"
Au American lover of tht* table
i vers that Asparagus officinalis "is
an aristocrat from tip to stalk." All
of which goes to prove that the
owner of the high-sounding tide
differs utterly from human upstarts, lie is an upstart, nevertheless, and the further he nets nway
from his native soil lho less worthy
is he.
AT ITS BEST IN VTHQINIA
Iu Virginia, where our aristocrat
of Ihe kitchen-garden is at his best,
he is systematically kept under the
surface of iho ground. Asparagus
is planted in rows, and as it peeps
aliove the earth ii is banked out of
sight, lhe long lines of rich mould
rising steadily to keep pace wiih ils
growth. As a result, when the ns-
iraragus is .-ut for the table it is
blenched (ruin root to lip nnd ten-
il.r throughout. Ii took me a long
lin..- to I.-urn to accept thu spindling green stalks offered in Northern markets as asparagus. Some-
ti.ii.s German green-grocers and
market-women culled it "grass."
'I'liis was sui.l to be a perversion of
the stalely name. Indeed, country
folk often spoke of it as "sparrow-
grass,*' A half century ago Frederic Cozzens, genial and loving humorist, made us laugh wilh him at
the bucolic ambitious nf Mr. Spar-
rowgrnss and his spouse. We quote
him to this day.
PREJUDICE AGAINST "GRASS"
I own, frankly, lo a rooted prejudice against ll.e "grass," which lime
and usage have nol overcome. My
heart slill turns fondly to the plump
ami pale columnettes grown iu
Southern market-gardens. Vet I nm
...Id that what medicinal virtues nn.
inherent in asparagus nre more, po-
t.ni in the -'i-e. u spindles than in
thc blenched larger stalks. I am
quite ready to believe the further
assertion thai these virtues are
eliminated from canned asparagus
and ihni the .1. lieate straw-color of
the closely packed stalks is due tn
chemical agents. We all know how
flavorless the canned imitation is by
comparison with tlie fresh vegetable.
Like oilier succulent growths, asparagus depreciates quickly when
drawn from the earth. If cooked
within an hour or two after it is
cut, tlie twenty minutes' boil recommended by cook-books will send it
to table tender and good. It hns
long been my custom to eut off half
an inch from the lower part of asparagus bought in the markets and
to set tlio slalks upright in water
as I do wilh cut (lowers. It, responds gratefully lo ihe treatment,
growing crisp and plump iu a few
hours. A damp cloth should be
thrown over it nnd the vessel in
whicli it stands.

arranging in alternate rows of tips to tho

The Housemothers' Exchange
I READ the letter In yesterday's paper
from "Stenographer," and your answer,
and your Ideal so entirely coincided with
mine that I want to write and tell you so,
and thank you for Ibe answer you gave h>"r,
und in a way to others who hold her views.
I suppose she Is not to blame because --ne
never hnd a chance to learn how to Uke
care of a house, but how does she know
she does not like It when she has never
tried It'.' uf course, there are things about
housework not entirely pleasant, but so
there are about olilco work. I don't like to
dean my typewriter and get my hands all
stained, but I have It to do just the same.
Neither do I love to scrub floors nnd wash
up a lot of kitchen dishes, but I think the
enjoyable parts of .inusework more than
compensate for these untnjoyable things.
I am not like her. I love housework, and
all that pertains to It, and for a girl who
has worked 111 an office for four years after
completing a high school course I think I
havo a pretty good Idea of what housework means. My mother was nei taught
housework when a girl-that is, to make a
study of It-arid has never liked It, and sho
determined that hi-r daughters should be
taught housework clear through, and I
know I* have been, and my little sister Is
making a good start.
It seems to me that no boarding-house
life tan mak** up for u home life. Ii may
be a llltle nmre aristocratic, ai she seems
to think, but no boarding house would satisfy me, and I know whereof I speak, for
I, too, am gulag to be inarrbd before many
months, and nothing but a home, even
though It be only u small flat would nal-
Isfy me, and I know from things my finnce
luu said ihnt Is what he wants, too. He
has never had a home, being un orphan,
and he looks forward to uur having a home
With a great deal of pleasure. I don't s«-e
what she can be thinking of dtdlbcrntely
to put aside home llf*? and be content
with a boarding house. I dun't believe she
would be, eilher, after giving It a trial.
What Is more pleasant than the washing
and wiping of dainty china and glassware,
the cooking and serving of a good meal that
Is Just enough for two, or the arranging
and cleaning Of a house? Maybe 1 am a
llltle too far the other way, but It -seems
to me that when I am through office work
nnd nm In my own home my Joy will be
full
Her fiance has the higher ideals of the
iwn in wanting a home, Even granting
lhat while there are just the two of ihem
they might be contented In a boarding
house, probably some time there will be one
more, and maybe more, and surely then
they would want a homo, I think It Is a
girl's highest privilege, being queen of a
home, no matter how small it Is.
Your good letter confirms mc In tho
belief I love to cherish—namely, thut
the heart of American womanhood Is
still true to the "real things." With
the discouraged prophet of Israel, I
may say sometimes, when weary with
bruiting myself against lhe stone wull
of prejudice an fighting away tho
vapors of frivolity:
"I have heen very Jealous for the
truth, and the women of this generation have forsaken right ideals and
thrown down the family altars which
their mothers served, and I, even I
only, am left."
With the return of strength and tho
power to reason aright conies the confident faith that there aro seventy
times seven thousand In the land
which is our goodly heritage that
have not bowed their knees to tho
Baal of worldlinci'tS nor kissed him
with tholr lips. 1 hlm ke my head at
but one line of your protest. 1 do
not think a boarding-house life In
the least "aristocratic." Nor do I
think It is so rated by peoplo who
know the best side of social life. I
am sure that I havo never felt myself to he so low In the social Beale
us during the few mouths when
a pending change of residence made
boarding expedient. It wns at thu
end of this penitential period thut my
especial "John," who hns a mind of
hla own nnd .. fair command of nervous English, declare! that he "would
rather live upon beefsteak and boiled
potatoes in his own house thun sit
down, day after day, to a ten-courso
dinner In the finest hotel In the land."
1 have never yet seen a wine man
who did not hold kindred opinions.
Women and Ideas
I Insert as much of nur next letter ns
I can make room for, not because t
agree with the writer in her contention,
but that other women, and particularly
mothers, may ponder upon her ideas
and express their Individual views. For
myself, I own, without a blush, that I
cried out "Yes!'' at dear Peter Pan's
appeal: "Don't you believe in fairies?"
Nor have 1 ever found that my children confounded the true and the false
In everyday life and working hours for
having been fed, as a dessert ufter lessons and real tusks, with lhe blessed
old fairy tales. Jean Jact)Ues Rousseau
(of whose private life we will say nothing In a family paper) considered that
the parent who told his child that birds
and beasts talk and have dramas, etc.,
after the miinner nf humankind, did his
offspring great harm.
I nm sorry that 1 cannot recall tlm
author of a rhyming reply to the
French theorist that I once knew by
heart. It began)
"I will not ask Jean Jacques Rousseau
If birds confabulate or no,
(if all things old and home thing! new.
The child who nuds and takes for true
The story <>f a cock and bull
Must havo a must uncommon skull."
But now for our thoughtful correspondent's weli-wrlllen essay:
Many children annoy their parents by lying. I have wondered If reading fairy tales
to the llltle unes and making up stories lo
entertain ihem hud anything to do wllh
ihls untruthfulness, Children cannot understand why they may not make up stories,
loo, without bdng called wicked and being
punished.
For my part, I see no sense In telling
children about the COW who
"Jumped over tho moon,
While the dli;h ran away with the sperm,"
It wnuld be fnr better to read someihin;{
sensible to them; something thai will help
them to grow up with noble thoughts and
make them kind to their fellows.
Some folry tales frighten children. I
know of a child who Is afield In go Into
ihe garden because some one read to him
of a titiii. Liri who wns turned into a but
terfly. Some people think fairy stoilcs
better for children than llible histories, t
do not agree with them, If one is wise In
cut's selection of Scripture storleg.
C. E. W. (Providence, R. I.).
Packing Eggs
If a little Hour be mixed with the salt
used in packing eggs, It will prevent the
hardening of tho salt about the shells.
Sift Ibe flour.
May I come again?
u. ii. P. (Holland, Mich.).
Brief and to the point! The suggestion is sensible. Salt absorbs moisture
with marvelous readiness and holds it.
In drying, it cakes and hardens. I have
seen eggs lhat were packed in salt
break when the lump of salt was de-
tached from them. Upon the same principle the canny housewife mixes cornstarch with the suit In the cellars prepared fur table use.
Yes; come again and often, If you are
always as pertinent and sententious aa
you have been today.
t\ Bit of Encouragement
1 nave always thought yours a difficult
task, but I have more sympathy with you
now (han ever.
About three months ago I wrole asking
you for two recipes. I gave up looking
for an answer long ago. I believed my
request had found a resting place In the
waste basket. Nor did I wonder at this,
for really the matter wns not Important
afler ail. Imagine my surprise nnd pleasure at seeing my letter and one ot lho
desired recipes In a late Issue of the Exchange!
Since I have realized that you must
actually keep track of nil letters, and that
yon really do answer each In turn, I think
your patience must exceed that of Job. Tho
task seems tremendous to me, and I write
this to encourage those who wait long for
replies, and to bespeak for you their sympathy.
Here Is the recipe I promised:
Sour Cream Chocolate Cake.
Melt tWO squares of chocolate In one-half
cup of sour cream. Heat together the yolks
of three eggs, one and a half cups of sugar
and another half cup of sour cream. Add
the melted chocolate, a pinch of salt, one
large cup of flour, one teaspoonful of soda
and one of vanilla. Finally, the beaten
whites nf the three eggs.
Hake ln a square tin. and when cool tour
a boiled Icing over it.
To make this lasl: Iloi! a cupful of sugar
with une of water until It "threads." Beat
the while of an egg light and add a quarter
teaspoonful uf cream of lurtur; pour the
syrup over this slowly, and whip all light.
When the right consistency is gained,
spread upon Hie cake The cream of tartar
makoi the Icing light and thick.
C, E. S. (Hlver Forest, HI,),
Your patient consideration for an overweighted edilor Is as southing OS it Is
unexpected. The veriest dullard In figures can guess at the Imposslblity of
crowding 150 letters per day, Into a corner that would hold but twenty at most.
1 am so used to tarPquerles us to tho
reason that letters demanding replies
within two or tliree days do not appear
under that number of weeks and why
othtrs never see the light, that your gentle appreciation of my difficulties, and
my honest desire io mete out justice to
all, is like a poultice to an inflamed surface. Not that I lay unreason and fn-
temperate reproaches to heart. The inflammation is but skin deep, yet briarl
annoy and mud is unsightly until It is
dry enough to rub off.

A Ginger Jar's Transformation
LUCKY, indeed, Is the woman who

A\,\. THE tradlUonal fury or a wnmiui scorned
flamed up In the heart of Mrs. Anna M. Bradley,
of Salt Lake City, when she sought out former
Senator Arthur Brown, if noli, in Ills Washington
hotel a few we^k-- ago, and shut him io death.
It was rt sad day for the brilliant and wealthy Utah
lawyer when ihe fates first permitted his path to cross
that of the woman who finally sent him to the grave.
For years she had been importuning him m many
her. in simple justice. Bhe asserted, to her two young
aoni. When he failed to do whnt she considered his duty,
she became a vengeful Nemesis, constantly dogging tils
footsteps.
Numerous and notorious were lhe love troubles of
BeuAtur Brown, When a young attorney at Kalamazoo,
Mich., his wife became greatly incensed at his devotion
ti Miss Isahelle Cameron, and, it was reported, this
Infatuation narrowly escaped ending in a tragedy,
This condition of affairs ripened Into a scandal that
la remembered even now in mat town. At last, finding
himself cut by many of bis friends. Brown went to Sail
Lake City He was followed by Isahelle Cameron, and,
whe tie had been divorced from bin wife, married her.
It s»-m» the Irony of fate that Mrs. Isahelle Cameron
Browi Introduced to ber husband the woman wh" later
took his hfi ;,.'*- I;:..-An and Mrs. Bradley were prom-
li ..' ■■> imi n In Suil Lake, and had become ac
quainted ■:..: igh membership hi the Poets' tlcund Table
Club, d lltl *•■ ■ irg '■;■*.ri'-u.
Tbe Introduction of Brown to Mrs, Bradley wan made
at St. Louis In law. Brown, accompanied by his wife,
had gone to St. Louis us delegate to the Republican
National Convention.
one result of Hie friendship thus begun was thi
separation of Mrs Bradley from her husband and of
Brown Irom his wife. Then opened a long series of
scandalous nnd sensational events, which culminated in
the killing of the former Senator by the woman who
bad charmed him, but of whom he later endeavored lo
rid himself
At the lime of his death. Senator Brown, it lias been
Hated, was engaged tti marry Mrs. A milo C. Adams,
mother of Maude Adams, the actress, tils second wife
having died about two years before. It was the discovery o( a letter from Mra Adams to Mr. Brown, speaking of an appointment to meet In New York, that precipitated the tragedy hi the Washington hotel.
Jealousy, despair and an overwhelming sense of
wrong ieemed to have prompted this slaying, one of
the most sensational of the year.
Hut what motive prompted Mrs. Margery i lark to
Hire Algernon S Atwood from Denver t'i Boston, to
kill him, and then commit suicide? Jealousy alone, perhaps,
The woman's claim that slu. and Atwood ha.! been
married was not borne tul by " ■* rei ords In Boston,
When he went West, ihe isserted that It was for the
purpose 'if making a home for w
Handsome and Intelligent, young Atwood was
received in excellent social circles In Denver,
and on November 6 was married to the daughter
of a wealthy widow, Six weeks later he was
summoned to Boston by a telegram, which
falsely stated that Mra. Clark was dying.
When he entered the presence of the woman
to whose call he had responded, Bhe shot hlm,
and then turned the revolver upon herself.
M'ystery obscures the motive leading to the
killing of Gustave Simon, a wealthy New York
manufacturer, mi November 11. Baroness de
Massy, otherwise known as Anlsla Louise de
Vernon, was arrested, charged with this crime.
Simon, 6S years old, was proprietor of a waist
factory on Broadway. On the day of the shooting the
Baroness entered the establishment and walked through
lhe crowded rooms to the office of Simon.
Shortly afterward the sound of quarreling was heard.
Then the woman emerged, and Simon, Immediately behind
her, seemed to be pushing her from the room. After a
little time she returned, ivnd three shots were fired.
Employes rushed In, to find filmon lying on the lloor,
mortallv wounded.
"I did not shoot him," Baroness de Massy calmly declared when at rested. She asserted that the shooting was
done by another person, who was lying In wait as sho
entered the office to collect money due her for work.
It was asserted at the time that Simon, when dying,
accused th>* woman of shooting him.
BARONESS OF ARISTOCRATIC LINEAGE
Baroness de Massy comes of the aristocratic family
i.f de Vernon, prominent In one of the French provinces.
Her husband, a friend of Count Bonl de Caateltane, died
suddenly three years ago, and the Baroness suspected
tnat he had been poisoned.
She took up the work of ferreting out the assassin,
and her search, It Is said, led her to America. For some
time before the killing of Simon she had been working
aa a destgr.-r of shirtwaists.

was found dying from a stab
wound under the eye, inflicted,
the police say, with a nail file,
They also charge that Mrs.
O'Nell was alone with him In
the room at the time, and that
is why she was arrested, accused of killing her husband.
Ten years ago the young
woman married William H, Kin-
ley, a member of the New York
police force, hut separated from
him later and became an artist's model.
Only a couple of years ago hhe was one of the beat
known models In New York, and had been employed by
almost every artist of note. She was considered one of
tlie most beautiful young women who frequented the
studios, and wus In demand to post for paintings and
sculpture work.
Thon she was known as Kitty, or "Goldie," Bellau,
a light-hearted girl, whose great mass of auburn hair
whs her principal attraction lu the eyes of artlstB. Recently she married O'Nell, but, according to accounts,
did not find her second matrimonial venture a happy one.
She asserts that he ill-treated her. Her few pieces
of Jewelry had been sold, and all the clothing she owned
she wore.
The auburn-haired little woman stoutly denied her
guilt. She asserted that her husband hud been drinking
heavily Just before his death, and, iu addition, had taken
poison.
O'Nell wns a steel worker, and it was a singular
coincidence that the wife, accused of his murder, was
locked ln a cell at Qreenwlch which he had constructed.
Asserting to have suffered wrong at his hands, Marie
Schabara, 22 years old, of Brooklyn, N. Y., coolly shot
down Nieolo Ferrance within view of dozens of people
in the street The shooting occurred almost in front of
the Tombs prison, New York, while the crowd was
waiting to see some relative of Harry Thaw emerge

Most unusual ni.d pathetic wus tho girl's life atory.
It waa show., at tha trial that she had suffered unpardonable wrong at the hands of her uncle while living

Intensified by this last bitter blow, and thinking only of

uncle and aunt and killed them both. A Bymjjathetlc Jury,
after a dramatic trial, acquitted her.

on tbo still cove's waters, or yet more lovely, flaunting

topmost ledge of Brace's Itock, his elb
llll chin in his hand, his artist eyes garnering the scene
Into Ihe storehouse of his bruin, and so absorbed was
he in details of color that when at last his gaio dropped
tr a spot not len feet fmm lilm he sat staring at It with
a senae of confusion. What he saw was an artists paint-
rng, still wet and fresh with nil the shaded colors of thn
Inmlscapfl, but for the moment It was to him almost as
If his vision had collected the widespread colors, as a
prism might, and thrown them together on the rock.
Sending his eyes wandering again In search of the
fellow-artist who must have preceded hlm. Goodhue
finally discovered a figure climbing among tho rocks below. It was plainly a woman, though as he peered duwn
nt her a large, mushroom-like hat concealed from lilm
everything but a white skirt and an Identifying artist's
equipment hanging from the climber's shoulder,
Nol an hour before, Goodhue had been over every
inch of that lower ground, and he now watched the
progics.1* of another With peculiar Interest. At whal he
lelt id be the risk of life and limb, he hail crawled down
not only to tbe base of tin* rock itseir, but under a jutting boulder uverh.uigltig the water, and thero discovered
a veritable Jewel-casket.
The waters, lapping in and out twice dully between
lho cinvlces, Pad firmed somehow a great oblong basin,
ami this the sea bad filled wilh lis own wonders. It
had first draped the gray sides with long, weeping sea-
ueoiin, or crusted them with tawny barnacles uud black
mus'ils dashed with silver. There spongy anemones or
Ai'cry soft tint stieiched down thirsty necks, while the.
floor below was a rich mosaic formed of multi-colored
cualla, with l.er.* a blazing orange starfish, there another
of pink or royal purple. The approach to this treasure-
house lay down a sharp descent, slippery with wet weeds
and black with barnacles, and it wa? a recollection of the
difficulties of the climb, not unwillingness to Hee another
.share hla discovery, that brought Goodhue to his feet and
made hlm look down anxiously as the stranger ar.lst
paused nbove the overhanging rock. He realized ihal
Bhe, too, had found some evidence of what lay below
as hc watched her hesitate, test with her foot tho slip-
[.en,* weed on the rooks, then draw back, only to repeat
ihe'attempt at another point. Polled, apparently, by the
ival dangers of the descent, she seated herself at last
on au overhanging rock, as Goodhue thought wisely giving up the attempt. He fancied that a sknch of the pool
WflS to be the next movt In order, as he saw the girl
take what lookod like a sketch-hook from hei side, hut
by a deliberate movement she poised the book with
careful aim and [lung it swiftly down under the rock;
thon, with only a moment's hesitation, she rose, plunged
after it, and was lost to Goodhue s astonished sight.
Although he had found the descent difficult as well
as dangerous, he remembered that b-jth difficulty ami
danger had been doubled In the return, ami deciding,
therefore, that he should at least be mar at hand In the
event of accident, he made his way quickly down the
•Me of the rock, aud, reaching ihe top of the overhang-
log spur, waited there patiently.
It amused hlm, unseen and unsuspected as he knew
ho was. and knowing as he did every beauty that lay In
that hidden aquarium of nature, to hear now and then
half-littered exclamations of delight coming from beneath the rock. It was long, und he did not wonder at
the delay, before the sound of a foot cautiously scraping
its way warned him that the reckless adventurer, having
satisfied her artistic curiosity, had finally begun her
ascent. He moved softly neater to the jagged edge, and
a moment later saw a woman's ungloved hand groping
helplessly in air; but before Goodhue had decided whether
be should or should not grasp It, the hand was clinging
to a blunt projection, where the companion hand soon
followed, creeping about the other side of the blunt spur.
Small and white as they were, the hands seemed supple
■nnd the wiists so strong that Goodhue waited to discover
what plan their owner had for them before he Interfered. Stooping down and crawling to the rock's edge,
ho looked cautiously over lo see that the climber was
standing on the narrowest of ledges, with her body
thrown back to gain the impetus which was to swing
her ahout the rou-fh corner, using the spur as a pivot,
her arms as ropes to drag her up to the top of the rock.
Tkere was no time for further hesitation. Goodhue
grasped lhc girl's wrists, at the same lime crying out a
warning
"I i.t jump! It Is dangerous. Have you kept your
footing'*"
"Yes," answered a voice from below.
He braced himself against the rock. "Then swing
froe now and I'll pull you up. Slowly! Slowly!" He
felt the muscles of her wrists relax as her hands loosened
on the spur and the weight of her body hung on his
arms In another moment he knew she must have
gained some new footing, for the strain on his haivla
lifted in part, and the next instant the mushroom hat
was rising over the rock's edge, disclosing to his interested eyes, first a cloud of dark hair, next the white brow
tt surrounded, and then his eyes met those heavy-lashed
blue eyes unlike any others he bad ever known. Had
the overhanging rock on which he knelt dropped into
the pool beneath, It seemed to Goodhue that the crash
could not have been more actual than was this meeting
eye to eye. A moment, still poised ns they were, both
were held motionless, then, with a word of Inarticulate
exclamation, Goodhue dragged the girl's limp body up
the face of the rock to the spot where he stood. Witn
solid ground beneath her feet, her first motion was to
Stagger from Goodhue's support nnd lean weakly against
the stone wall which rose high above them. But If her
body vrtua weak her fixed eyes could still ask the question h*r lips were unable to demand, and with an effort
flood hue answered her exactly as If she had spoken.
"Hester, on my honor, 1 did not know It was you!
Your hat hid your face. 1 came to help you only as any
man would go to any woman in danger."
Hosier drew her trembling figure together against the
rough rock to which Bhe seemed to cling. Though she
spoke, It n is as If the wind caught her voice, blowing
It from her lips, It came so faintly, so unnaturally.
"Not—not this man to this woman!"
'No," he replied, sadly, "you are right. We should
never have met again! but Indeed If one of these waves
hid caught ns off the land somewhere and flung us together on this rock, our meeting could not have been
more accidental."
"I believe you, and it I had had a moment of preparation -she looked up at him, fully and proudly meeting his
eycs-"l could have met you as any woman might meet
any man
As she ended she bent her head sllghtty and. crossing
the small rocky platform, quickly disappeared behind the
first hitting rock. Before he realised that she was
going, Goodhue found himself alone, but the little
sketch-hook, which he had seen her fiing under the rock
lay whom she had dropped it, forgotten, at his feat
Goodhue stooped and lilted the book. He hesitated a
moment with It In his hand, then passed round the rock
Whero Hester hnd vanished. As she heard bis quick step

closely that despite hei* self-control her color rose slowly
and hotly. As he saw It mounting lo her throat, her
cheek, her brow, he spoke, slowly!
"Hester, can't you forgive me?"
For ii- moment she did not reply, ihen answered, with
effort, "I had forgiven you—until I saw you."
"I understand, I am going now. Hut one word, one
moment first It was, believe me, for your sake more
than for iny own that I acted as I did. I know you
cannot Judge, not knowing what I do,"
Bhe turned to him suddenly, hotly. "I can know
that I am profoundly grateful to you for what you saved
me from, I know now It would have been a living death
to me. You saved me from thai, and for that fuvor—
bifl how can you think I should ever wish lo see your
face ngain?"
"I do not," he answered, gravely. "I am going now.
But remember, I 'know
nothing, I have hoard not
a word alnco we parted—
not even thut i spared you
all I could. 1 told your
father that you found the
mnn of my letters, the man
you had promised yourself to, not at all lhe man
1 was. Was li accepted?"
"If It gives you nny comfort. It was accepted. You
generously gave me the honors of war and I accepted
them. But why should I
play out the part With you,
who know thoso honors were
thrust upon me!"
Goodhue stood with
bowed head, repudiating
nothing. He half turned
away, then looked back.
"Before I go," he said, simply, "you need not pre[>ors
for what I am going lo say.
It seemB very prosaic to
mem lun this at till, but let
me warn you, as 1 crossed
ihe causeway from the mainland to this rook, I noticed
the boulders scat tared on
the causeway wero wave
worn. This, with some other
signs, made ine sunt that al
high tide, whenever that
muy be, this rock would bo
cut off."
"Submerged?'
"Hardly," he answered,
glancing with a smile ut the
craggy heights above. "A
rise of tide that submerged
this rook would flood all the
mainland as well, but the
causeway Is much lower."
Hester glanced back at
the water behind them. At
that moment a wave, stronger than Its fellows, swelled
up aud broke ou the outor
rocks, rushing over their
serrated tops as though SO
many gait-ways, flooding the
platform Where they had
stood a few moments before, and sobbing up almost
to their feel in a trough of
dashing stray and foam,
Tlio seaweed clinging to the
rocks was no longer a. fiat
drapery, the waves were lifting their drooping lieadn on
strong crests to toss and
tangle them roughly
11 ester started as she
looked. "The lide Is rising!"
"Yes," Goodhue answered, "it has bemi rising for
some time. 1 am afraid high lide cannot be far oft*. It
would really be wiser to make your escape good at once.
The quickest way Is up over the centre of the rock, only
it is very steep. If you would let me help you"-he
hesitated, but Hester hurriedly look the hand he had
half offered, and breathlessly tolled after him on the
steep ascent which they at once began, In many places
Goodhue hud almost to drag her up the rock's sheer face,
as he had done on their meeting at Its hase There was
no chance for speech, even had either desired It. Hester
climbed with a feverish haste, and Gooohue, yielding to
her mood, hurried the ascent as rapidly as lie dared.
Coee, as he touched her arm to aid her, he felt that her
whole body was trembling, and he looked up at her
quickly. »
"Are you afraid?" ho asked. "1 assure you there's
nc. possibility of danger, Even if the tide has covered
the causeway, the worst that can happen will be a short
imprisonment. This rock could nol possibly be submerged."
She glanced at him a moment and then turned away
again, pressing forward faster. "Perhaps," she aaid,
coldly, "I might prefer submersion."
Goodhhe colored und drew back. "I beg your pardon—" he began.
But at that moment ihey reached the summit, which
gave them the first glim pre of the causeway, last seen
as a ridge of red rock strewn with boulders and bounded
on either side by the sea. Now between them and dry
lond lay a stretch of unquiet waters, flecked with little
wave-worn Islands, some us close together as easy step-
plug-stones over a brook, but others more dubiously distant. Even as they looked, the rising waves, swimming
In from the sea, were swallowing up these means of
escape as rapidly as fishes devour crumbs of bread,
Goodhue turned to look at his companion. They had
both pnused abruptly.
"1 shall attempt It," Hester said, decidedly, in answer
to his look, and at once began the descent, much easier
on this side than the ascent on the other. Goodhue was
at. her side when she reached the beach that lay ut the
foot of th'i rock, but she seemed almost unconscious of
hl<: presence, As she stood poised lightly on a stone at
the water's edge, her eager blue eyes on the farther shore,
her face Mashed, her lips sei, her dark hair blown back,
her whole figure as a type of motion, but for the moment
arrested, it seemed to Goodhue as great an impertinence
to suggest danger to her as ll would he to suggest It to
lho sea-gulls fluttering on the outlying rocks, disputing
their possession with the buffeting waves lhat constantly
swept them aside. Yet, when she lifted her loot from
the first rock to set lt on the next, he quickly stepped
forward and laid his hand on her arm, half speaking lus
thought:
"But you have no wings. It Is impossible,"
Her impatient movement waa meant to shako off his
detaining hand. "There ls nothing to prevent my trying."
His hand still on her arm. he felt the forward spring
of her body, and again deliberately resisted It, pushing
her back. Her foot dropped to the sand.
"You forget me," he said, gently. i must prevent
your trying it."
"You prevent me!" she asked, incredulously. "You
mean to keep me here by force?"
He answered her urgently. "You surely will not
mike me do that. You must see tha danger. Wilting
ap I am to help you escape. I cannot, you cannot measure from here the distances of those boulders from
each other, nor the depths between them You might bo
caught midway, with retreat or advance cut off and the
tide still rushing in. Then any fall for you among those
sharp stones and angry waters could have but one end."
"You aro afraid."
He looked at her with a half smile. "Yes," he said,
"I am afraid. Did you think you could scourge me to
courage?"
Her eyes lowered, she stood silent for the moment,
thon suddenly, with hnnds clasped, raised her eyes In
entreaty. "I Implore you to let m* try It. I nm very
strung. 1 shan't be hurt. You must see I can't—I can't
stand staying here."
*'l do see lhat, and I don't mean you shall stay herewith me. The only thing I do beg of you ls not to
attempt lhe pussag,- until the way Is quite clear again.
Yen won't be lmpilsmi^d very long at worst."
Onodihue wilh taking off his coat as he ended, and
H'-ster stood looking at him in silence, her face rhang-
l:.g. As lie rolled his coat into a bundle and thrust it
under his arm, she spoke coldly and abruptly:
s "You coiled the passage verv dangerous just now. If
V Is true, I cannot allow you to attempt It. If any-
\i ihould happen, my conscience—"
He Interrupted her quickly. "I thank your conscience
Alt it may rest easy. I am a strong swimmer. In
any rape 1 go solely on mv own responsibility." A bll-
terneas that for the first time spoke in his voice brought
tho color to Hester's face.
"I did not mean to be unkind," she said, still formally,
but mora gently than she had yet spoken "1 only
meant Hint I could nut let vou risk your life to spare me
more discomfort."
"Yes " he answered, sadly. "I understood you You
menni what you said. It was a case of conscience only.
Good-bye, 1 dun't ask you to reply. Vou were right. We
should never have met, and now we must pan i.s quickly
as posslbli. Good-bye."
Bfrfon ahe could speak again, had she wished to do
so, h" had left her side, and was leaping frum rock to
rock out Into the waters. Hester turned sharply uway
hack to the higher sand nf the beach. There, where ihey
h»d rtood in the sand, together In all human probability
for tbe last time, she saw the marks of Goodhue's foot-
steps and her own distinctly printed. The ripples that
left the rushing waves behind to break on the sand in
wrinkles soft is a baby's frown were yet strong enough
to tw wiping out these Inst frail memorials. Hester's
brow contracted ns slu looked, but she moved resolutely

with i sharp chirp from some crevice, flew past her,
almost brushing her with Its wings In Its hurry to be
off. Turning Involuntarily to watch Its dipping flight,
her eyes caught a glimpse of Goodhue's figure standing
on a rock far out in the yeasty waters.
Brace's heights rose solidly between her and the ln-
lard when she stopped again and stood looking out at
the dlftant sea-line. The sun, now almost level with the
world, wns behind the rock, and cast the shadows of Its
peaks In longer and longer reflections at her feet. The
deserted waste of waters lay cold and gray. Two fingor-
llke lighthmipeB on a distant iBland were pointing upward,
their straight lines already blurring and purpling tn the
withdrawing light. The air seemed suddenly cold, and
Hester shivered Involuntarily. As If seeking for warmth,
she nestled down in one' of the rock crevices, leaning
olom against the stone's rough side as she waited, watching the waves lhat came dashing In. thru whig thoir spray
almost to her feet. The roaring of the waves was so
monotonous and continuous she heard nothing, until at
law;, al a step close behind her, she turned with a start
to seo Goodhue.
"You have not gone*."' she cried, rising and facing
him,
"You must not blame me," he answered. "After ell,
it proved Impossible."
'"".'he tide bad risen too high?"
He paused a moment, then replied, with grave significance: "Yes, the tide had risen too high. 1 might play
with words and still say that too truly. But I have
come hack solely because I love you and because 1 must
lell you so."
Hhe stood staring at him bewildered, and he repeated
his ln*--t words.
"I must toll you so."
"No," she cried, rousing. "You could have left me,
and hnve dared to come back for this! How have you
ventured? Do you think you can once fling a woman's
heart away and ever come back—"
He checked her with an earnest gesture. "Flung
awny! And jou have thought there was no better reason
than that kind of faithlessness? Then, Indoed, you must
hear me."
"Never. Never again!"
"You must, ln Justice to me, first you must listen,
and, further—as you yourself decide. For a year I
hive let you judge mo unheard, because I could not
sneak. Now I can, and claim a hearing. In common
Justice, you have no right to refuse."
"I do refuse. In common Justice, I have soma claims.
I did love you. You know It. Why should 1 deny It?"
She caught her breath for the moment, but went on. "I
have at last reached the point I made up my mind I
would reach the day we parted. 1 don't deny it was
hard at first, but 1 have utterly ceased to cure. I will
not be troubled now. I have the right not to be."
He stood looking at her face, flushed awl quivering,
but decided—al the* indignant violet eyes whicli she
forced herself to raise to Ills, and at the curve of her
quivering Hps, Ihen he looked away from her again
out over the waters aboul them.
"We are as If In a world quite apart for the time,"
he said, ai Inst, quaintly. "I wish we could forget for
lhone few moments that there's any other world to consider When our souls meet In another world Ihey will
perhaps talk of all this freely together. Why shouldn't
we speak now, as It may im we shall speak then? Our
friends know nothing or this meeting—tbey nood never
know. All tbat Is In our own hands. When we have
Uils little island for the earth again, you could take
thc path lo the left, I to the right, and, If you so will
It, -ill cun be us if this talk bad never hien."
He turned toward her again, speaking less resolutely,
more earnestly: "Can't yon give me out uf your whom
lifetime these few momenta—In ihls placo so far out uf
the world? A few moments ls ull I ask,"
Hester stood looking awny from him at the over-
strengthening waves. Once she turned and glanced at
him, and he saw she hesitated, bul he would nut urgu
hi r.
"If I could be sure," she began, slowly—"If I could' be
sure thnt the earlhlv would nol enter-"
He Interrupted her quickly, "In your hardest thoughts
of me, have you ever accused me of deceiving you?"
"Not of deception."
"Then accept my promise. If you consent the earthly
shall "not enter."
She leoked up at him ngain. and as ho met her look
fully and gravely, she turned us If to find a seat on lhu
shelving rock behind them. Goodhue accepted the Implied consent.
"Put we ahouldn't stop here," he said, practically.
"The sun Is nn low on the other side of the rock, this side
ls growing too cold, If we climb to Hie top of the rock
we enn catch the warmth of the lust rays, and we can
watch the causeway, too, us It uncovers."
Hester lei him lielp her to the heights, and sat down
■"llently In the crevice ho selected us yielding most comfort for her, Goodhue knew she was walling fur him
tn speak, imt he was silent, lucking down toward the
causeway, wiped wholly out of existence by ihe sea.
"The tide Is full. I think," he said, finally. "We have
only to wait for It to fall."

tjatight his breath.
"Go ou," she answered simply. "It was the flrBt cut

Have you more to say?"
"Something I scarcely
dare put into words. Do you
remember nothing strange In
our first letters0"
"Nothing," she answered,
nfter a moment's thought.
"Because you have not
the key yet. When I first
wrote you from my ParlH
studio, you remember It wui
about some imlmportant detail of color which wo had
discussed together, You
recollect that?"
Yes, und I replied,
thanking you. It all seemed
unimportant."
"Yet you couldn't know-
how your reply, short a* lt
was, dlfiercd from anything
1 expected. There was nothing vory marked In It, yet U
was different. Later, when
I had drawn another and another letter from you, 1 did
write you that l had scarcely dared hope for any answers whatever, because
when we met you seemed so
shy and inaccessible. A
wood violet could not have
been more retiring. Did you
never wonder at my thinking that?"
■Why should .1? You had

party for two days only.
That was all. I saw you
had galnod a wrong Impression of me, whicli I remember I attempted to dispel."
"It was done quickly und

your letter of sell-revolution
most fascinated me or bewildered me. It was all so
truthful, so dollcute, so fantastic, yet ao unlike my lu«a

condoled with ine leaslngly as
a color-blind artist mistaking n rose for a violet. Then
you went on more seriously
to tell me there were rose-
women and violet-women

as distinctly as ihe flowers,
and the perfume oj the rose
was not the perfume uf lho

It was enough to reveal you.

letter down, I could smell
roses! Later, perhaps then, I

you answered." He paused
and went on with difficulty, out rapidly, not looking at
hor. "I could bardlv wait to finish my work-hardly wait
to cross to vou—and then I Blood In your home waiting
for vou to come down to mo, and 1 could call up, as I
think only an artist can, every feature of thn woman I

"Anne—mv own sister. Oh, no-no! She hns been

"She knew nothing-knows nothing now."
"Oh. speak plainly—my own sister!"
Goodhue laid his hands strongly on hers as they lay
trembling on her knees.
"Try to listen calmly. It Is hard to explain at best.
And Anne—remember Ihls always—knew nothing at any
time. When 1 first saw you both It wub together, Buying In the same house. 1 never spoke to you apart. You
called ench other 'Sister.' I only learned your Christian name when you signed It In your first letter to me.

w.-re both artists. There was nothing to undo tho error,
and it was to Anno that 1 believed myself writing In all
those months. It was Anne 1 thought I loved and courted
-you who replied. This ls the miserable story. You
know the whole." He paused, then went on with a
difficulty that grew always greater. "Do you remember,
II was Anne who came lu tu me first when I was
walling for you? Can't you fancy my bewilderment
when I saw her standing there in the doorway, warding
me off with her outstretched palms—remember, I thought
she was my promised wife! I heard her say she had
only come to welcome 'a new brother,' und it seemed to
me the world turned round, and then she laughed In my
face and ran nway suddenly because Bhe heard another
door at the end of the room opening slowly. You know
who came in that door, Hosier. I waw your glorious
violet eyes, your vivid face, your lovely dark hair, and
you came toward mo—If I could only see you coming so
now—both hands held out, half shy, all gracious—"
With a swift motion Hester cowered down where the
"at, hiding her face In her hamis. "And you let me!"
sho cried—"you let me!"
Goodhue bent toward her, clasping her wrists In his
hands, speaking eagerly. "Hester, be lust to me, now
(illicitly, before you think of yourself. Wtiat could I
do? If you suffer SO In the thought thnt i played your
lover for a few distracted daya, try io think of what I
saved you by refusing to play your husband. Think,
too, of what I endured loving the body of one woman,
tho soul of another. It was like acting out some horrible tragic farce. Day by day I had to see the body
that I loved passing me, evory graceful motion holding
my gaze, and yet, when those dear, familiar lips moved
to apeak, they spoke a tongue I neither knew nor eared
for. Cnuld 1 have met Anne's soul alone, I knew I
should never have recognized It. Un the other side were
your mind, your heart, your spirit, so familiar, so dear to

when you spoke to me of some lovely thoughts you had
only written Of before, I turned to you expecting to see
the features I had culled Up so vividly when reading your
written words, anl then your unfamiliar face-can't you

"I have told vou everything," he said, slowly. "I was

I tell myself what I fell? Have yuu nothing to say to

She looked up at him with eyes from which the lustre
had gone. **1 can forgive ynu now," she said, weailly.
"Of course, co ono was to blame. It was an accident;

wot backbone of red-rock ridging across from thl mainland, leaving a clear path lo the shore,

the causeway to run inlaml-the one to the right, ths

at times among the bay bushes that spread iheir heavy
gret n leaves and gray aromatic berries above a yellow
carnet of scented grass. The path to the left loads
Straight and .mcompromisingly along the rocky coast
Goodhue glanced from ono path to the other, as he helped
Hester over the last stepping-stones, and they stood together nn the mainland.
"There is your path." he said, "to the right, over
the moors. Thai rocky wny to the left, lhe steep, single
path. Im mine."
Hester looked up toward the crags of the right-hand
pnih. "Mine Is single also/ she said, quickly. But
Goodhue did not respond.
"Why do you make me seem so hirrth?" she cried,
scMoT.ly, turning to him, "There has been too much
suffering on both sides. At least we may think kindly
of each other."
*Jhe held out hor hand as she Bpoko, as if offering e
friendly parting. Goodhue look her hand in his, holding
It gently, ig he replied, smiling.
"There was once a queen whose starving people cried
to her for bread, and Bhe asked why they didn't eat 'little
cakes.' She was ss Innocent as you, Hester-but none the
It.s-L- cruel." Again l-.e saw that she hesitated, and be
waited patiently until she spoke, tremulously:
"We must part In peace."
"Forgive me if I seemed rude to you Just now. But
as you nay ytU can be nothing lo me, be nothing, I beg

He saw her eyes turn from one path to the other,
thon out over the sea where the twt) great leopard eyee
stared blazlngly through lhe gathering darkness. Goodhue drew back a slcp, loosening his grasp on her hand,
which she had left In his.
"Walt!" she cried, quickly. "Oh, wait a moment. If
to part like this Is sn hard, then 1 must be able to think
of something that will soften IL"
"I will wait," he answered, "but you will think of
nothing, nH it cannot be all."
Again he watched her eyes turning to the diverging
paths, following the narrow w*y of each so far as sight
might carry ber. When she at last looked up at htm
again he could no longer read her thoughts. Yet her

"If you wilt not take my peace," she began, "nor

We have been talking as If we were ?oul to soul. I
am still trying to speak so. My feet seem somehow to

Sunshine
^ Furnace
NOT SHAKING. JUST A GENTLE
ROCKING OF THE LEVER.
Shaking is 1 hard, back-breaking exercise,
peculiar to common furnaces, while you can
stand erect at the Sunshine—and moving the
lever, to and fro, about half the length of your
arm, a lew times, is mere play. A child can
easily do it.
Grates of the Sunshine are in two sections-
right and left. By gently rocking the lever, a
few times, the ashes ate released from the right.
Repeat the operation on the left and the ashes
fron that side drop into the ash-pan, too.
You couldn't wish for anything easier than
the Sunshine Method.
When this lever is not in use it can be disconnected from the grates and the opening
capped. But when connected it fills up the
opening so snugly that no dust from the falling ashes can escape.
Every detail is thought of on the " Sunshine "—that's what makes it
the best,
If your local dealer does not handle the"" Sunshine," write direct to
us for Fkee Booklet.
