I ve `no doubt she thought me an` inhuman monster, willing to give away. my own esh and `Mood for a stranger s child. She did not understand the passion. that devoured me. But. that was not her business, and she agreed. -We fell to discussing ways and; means. \ llltilllb. Ah, yes, put in the _detective, `.`t.ha t. interests me ve,ry'much in- deed. It sounds difficult. 9 _Fate was with me, ` said Monk, with a `kind of pride." It appeared that as soon as her`sis- ter died, Mrs. Brand had taken the child "to her own house. Her brother-in-law was distracted with grief; he had not asked for the child; she did not even know whether he had inquired if it was a boy or afgirl. Her sister had been his second wife: he was much older than she and he had worshipped her. Mrs. Brand thought. he} would he only too glad to have a daughter; he had already a little boy by his first first wife. Her sister had had no doctor in attendance, but a mid- wife, who was a stranger to them and who had gone away, * and whom in all probability they would never see again. The Smiths had no servants; a strange` girl had come in to help during Mrs. Smith s illness. She would be none the wiser. The child had not yet been registered. and the nurse could be` dismissed. On that side there seemed tn be no difTic.u1t.ies. `On mine the difficulties fell away as we faced them. ' I remembered -that the doctor who attended my wife was dead. Our servants were in a, state of agitation. If they had been told the child was a girl first_. they would only think they had heen misinformediin the con- fusion that reigjned in the house. There was only the nurse. She was squared. I knew her well. She knew me; she knew my ambitions, my` hopes . my prayers. There was nothing wrong" to her way of thinking. The two mothers were dead. What mattered if the children changed places?" ' u.A_..1 -- :1 __..;- ._-;LI._`,IC)97 ,...\:...I| `gers in an inferior position. So it was settled. Everything was in my favor--the two house- holds in chaos, the dist.racted husband, the willing accomplice. the bribable nurse. And I wanted the boy as I wanted nothing else in the whole world. ' I do not un- derstand my own state of mind now. I had no feeling about sending my own child out into the world to be brought up by stran- I had no thought of what the boy might be who was thus given to me in exchange, of what tenden_ cies might be implanted in him. I -wanted him--a male child. a boy, who would grow to be a man, who would carry"on my work, who would take all his ideas from me, and who would succeed to the great inheritance that Imeant. to leave behind. . It seemed a Heav- en_sent~chance-my only one. The idea of remarriage revolted me; I had dearly lovedimy .wifeL.I wanted a son to devote myself to. I did not think about the boy s origin. I came of humble stock myself; and although I had al- ready then laid the foundation of my fortune and had risen to a rank` in` life far above the one\I was born in, I still had no fear a`- bout this boy.

Butter especially was none too plentiful. Several wholesalebuyers were on hand and were offering only 28- 29c. for butter, which was a de- cided decline compared with last week, butter and eggs both being nearer lu0c-. than 30c. Potatoes, which still claim attention, were $3.25-$3.50 per bag or 50c. per basket. Pansies, 3 boxes for 250. were noticed. There was also a good market for green onions, showing that many did not in- clude this easily-grown vegetable in their production list. Tomato plants were 10c. per dozen.
