If se twoâ€"thirds Old Lady Lancaster had twenty mi‘:i and pounds a year of her own. She brought that much dower when she came to her husband, the late: Lord Lancaster, and now, when he was dead, and she @ childless widow, she was*like the Martha 01‘1 Holy Writâ€"she was troubled over many things. The posseesion of great wealth neually entails trouble, it is eaid, and Lady Lanâ€" caster‘s case was no exception to the rule. The greatest anxiety she had was that she could not decide what ehe would do with her fortune when she died. She was eighty yeare old, and although she did not wantâ€"to die, she knew that she would have to do so some day, and she wanted to make her will before that gruesome event. 6 $ "You are right, Lady Lancaster. Someâ€" thing has happened," said Mrs. West. She eunk down fixo&ly.v as she spoke, into the chair that her mietrees indicated by a nod of herâ€"grim, unlovely head. "& Wave The title snd estates of Lancaster had descerded to the late lord‘s nephew, young Clive Lancaster. It was but a barâ€" ren honor, after all, for there was no money to eupport the dignity of the gqsl- tion. The deceased incumbent had been a mmn. and so had his father be fore"him. They had dissipated all the ‘pragerty that was not strictly entailed with the title, and the present heir had little to live on except his pay as a capâ€" tain in the anmy, where he still remained after his accession to the title, while at his express wich and desire Lady Lancasâ€" ter still reigned lady paramount at his ancestral home, and kept up its wonted dignity and etate. . She eaid she. should leave all her money to Captain Lancaster it he married to please her. ~If notâ€"and whe whook her gray head ominously, not to eay viciously, at this point, and reâ€" mained silent. 3 & Then Lady Lapcasterâ€"looked up and eaw an open ietter in tfie hous&deepor's hand, and the signe~of inward disturbance on her _ veually unruffled countenance. _ â€" "You know that lslm to be kept waitâ€" in#, Weet," ghe gaid.~"and yoLno teâ€" ually very pmmp!«‘ But I gee that someâ€" thing has happened this time, 40 Iâ€" am ;e;idy to excuse your tardiness, What is it?" ril Lancaster Park was one of the loveliest mplaces in Devoushire, as Devonshire is one of thea loveliest counties in England. It seemed almost a pity that the young lord could not afford to marry and bring home a beautiful bride to grace his stateâ€" ly home. No one doubted but that when the time came he would espouse the br‘de his aunt selected for him. It wou!d be folly, it would be madness, if he refused. No one euppoxed that the handeome young soldier could be capable of such _ rashâ€" nees. He did not dream of anything but obedience himself. He only Jhoped that it would be a very pretty girl whom his aunt chose for him, and also that the matrimonial hour was yet in the dim dis: tance. He was only fiveâ€"andâ€"twenty, and he did not care to surrender his bachelor freedom yet. He was amazed and conâ€" founded, therefore, when in a year after his uncle‘s death Lady Lancaster cont him one of her characteristic letters ghort and to the point: The door opened softly and Mrs. West entered just in time to catch the impaâ€" tient ~exclamationâ€"a very ladyâ€"like perâ€" «on indeed, in noiseless black silk, and a neat lace cap that eurrounded a face only The mouths wlided by, and at length the, winter was past and @pring was a} hand. It was Aprilâ€"that tender, timid month, with its violets and daisies. Lady Lancaster‘s heart beat more lightly. She had had a recent letter from the travelâ€" er. He wrote that he would be at home by the first of June. She began to lay her plans accordingly. She wou‘d have a merry party at the Park to welcome him home, ’i.‘lrlld he should'makte ug Ihiu mind then, ere wa t or delay. %ha sent ior tflolrlgouaxxoeper to ({om«- to her immediately. She wanted to make al! her arrangements at once, and she could do nothing without consulting Mrs. West. the model housekeeper who had ruled at Lancaster Park . for sixteen years. My lady grew impatient while she sat in her great velvet armâ€"chair and waited for the woman‘s coming. Her &mall black eyes snapped orcesly, she wriggled her lean, ‘bent body in its stiff brocade, and her bony little hands, ‘with the great jeweled ringe hanging locsely upon them, graspâ€" ed the jewe‘led cerpentâ€"head that topped her walkingâ€"cane with nervous energy as she gasped out, angrily: "Why ‘don‘t the woman come?â€" How dare she keep me waiting ?" L nsl hss P t a u. iérIP.rk. t Suw h »as a .

I have inâ€" vited a lot of people for that time, among them the girl I have chosen for you. Do not fail me. Delays are dangerous." It was rather a command than a reâ€" quest, and the last words sounded like a threat. The young lordâ€"captain was takâ€" en by storm. His heart sunk to the botâ€" tom of his tall cavalry boots. He did not want to be married offâ€"hand like that. He secretly rebelled against a forced currenâ€" der of his soldierly freedom, even though he gained twenty thousand pounds a year in exchange for it. He took counsel with his chum, young Harry De Vere, who was a soldier, too. § â€"‘"Should a wife be regarded as an inâ€" cuq}hrnnce?" inquired the other, with a emile. Woe unto him if her ladyship, far away under English skies, could have heard his regrets, or have known that he had takâ€" en his trip solely to stave.off the evil day of his marriage, as he considered it. She wae vexed over it. While she deemed it an accident, she would have been furiousâ€" ly angry could she have known it to have been design. At home she was eating her heart out with impatience and vexation, and eagerly counting ‘the weeks and months as they rolled away, thinking that each one brought her nearer to his return and to the accomplishment of her cherished cchome. _ f 2 Captain Lancaster got leave and went off in triumph with Lieutenant De Vere o Ee e e e ts d "I can count on one year more of single bleesedness now, I hope," he said. _ "I do not euppose my aunt will try to have me married off by cablegram or a telephone while I am absent." . ~Tvn h â€""I‘m ower young to marry yet," he eaid. â€" "How shall I outwit the old lady‘s designs upon me?" . : "Come over to America with me," sa‘d Lieutenant De Vere. "I have leave of abâ€" wence for «ix months. You â€"can get it, too, by the asking. I am going over to the States to spend my holiday. 1 should be delighted to have you for a comâ€" panion." oo s & "I will go with you," he said. "I have always intended to mike the tour of the United States, and if»l do 1‘01 go hbefore I am married, it is not likely I shall do o afterward. I willâ€" write to my aunt to postpone her matrimonial designe a litâ€" tle while longer." _ 8 He wrote to Lady Lancaster that he was very sorry indeed to disappoint her, but that he had made a most positive engage ment to go over to the States next month with his friend Harry De Vere, and now the young fellow would not let him off, but as soon as they returned he should be at her ladyship‘s command, etc., etc. Lady Lancaster was profoundly annoyâ€" ed and chagrined at her nephew‘s letter. She did not want to postpone the coneumâ€" mation of her favorite scheme. But sbe wisely concluded to bear with the inevitâ€" able this time. She wrote to the truant lord that she would excuse him this once, but that he must be ready to fall in with her plans next time, or it might be worse for him. Her fortune was not likeiy to go aâ€"begging for an owner. to the United States. When he had put the ocean between himself and his matchâ€" making relative, he breathed more freely. De Vere laughed at his friend‘s selfâ€"con gratulations. "I never saw any one so unwilling t« accept a fortune before," he eaid. "It is not the fortune I object toâ€"it i the encumbrance I must take with it, replied Captain Lancaster. . ' â€" "All the some you will accept the one whe provides for you. It would be mad: necs indeed to refuse," said his friend.. â€"The idea took hold of Captain Lancas ter‘s imaginatiou, immediately. ____ _ _ "That would depend upon whether she were one‘s one choice or somebody else‘s. I can not imagine old Lady Lancaster se lecting an ideal wife for me." â€"‘"Well, well, we will not discuss it.

Indeed, I wou‘ld not leave you but for good cause," she «aid. "I had hoped and expected to spend all my days at Lancaster Park, but my duty calls me elsewhere. I aesure you it is as hard for me as for you. Think how hard it is for me, m poor lone woman, to have to eross the oceanâ€"at my time of life, too! And then to have to take a child to raise and spend all imy earnings onâ€"a child that‘s n<:lkm to me, either, you understand, my lady !" Mrs. Wes: suppressed a struggling amile around the corners of her lips, and, Hains up,. stood respectfully before her har miétress. CHAPTER IV. Lady Lancaster, filled with chagria and despair, sat gazing on the floor in silence, The thought of lain! this (trusty, capâ€" able womsn, who had belonged to the staff of Lancaster Park so long, was most annoying to her. I had come upon aer with all the suddenness of a calamily. She viewed it as nothing elso. _ She was an old woman, and she dislikâ€" cd exceedingly to have new faces around her. Under Mre. Weet‘s efficent regime the affairs of the houee had gone on with the precision and regularity of clockâ€" work. It would take a now woman years to attain to her proficiency.. She had grown to regard the good houeekeeper alâ€" mcet as her own propertyâ€"a piece of her pereonal goods and chattels. She could not help being angry at the thought of fosing her. _â€" : ~«~6~ sc R s Lady Lancaster settled her goldbowed spectacles on her long Roman nowe, and fixed a keen, penetrating stare on the troubled face of her housekeeper. "Whose child is it, and what is it all about anyhow?" she sputtered, vaguely. "It‘s my brotherâ€"inâ€"law‘s child, and he‘s read away off in New York somewhere, and the child‘s left io meâ€"his penniless, friendless orphan child, left to me by the dead; and how could I refuse the charge, my lady?" inquired Mrs, West, reproachâ€" fully. "I should think the dead would come from his grave, away off yonder in America, to haunt me if I didn‘t do his bidding," cried she. glancing behind her with something like a shudder of superstiâ€" tious fear. "I didn‘t know you _ were simpleton enough to believe in ghosts, West," aniffed my lady, contemptuously. "And I didn‘t know you ever had a brotherâ€"inâ€"law, cither. Where has he been all these years?" e C "I cou‘d not rélcse such a prayer as that, cou‘d I, my lady?" she. asked, wistâ€" fully. *"You see, he was my huchand‘s only _ brotherâ€"poor, _ handsome, willful Dick. His parents were both dead, and he had only me and John, my husband. He was restles« and ambitious. He ran away and left a letter that he should go to California and seek his fortune. From that day to this never a word has ‘been hean& of Dick. And now he‘s deJd 7rot so old, either; only in the prime of lifeâ€" and he‘s left me hiz little girl. She will be a trouble, I know. I must give up my quiet, peaceful home and make a . new home for the child, somewhere. But I cannot refuse. I dare not, for John‘s and Dick‘s eake. I must go to America and get the child. I can not do leas than he asked me. He was always restless, poor Dick. He could not stay in his grave if I refused his dying prayer." "If you will read this letter, Lady Lanâ€" caster, you will find out in fewer wordse than I can tell you," said Mrs. Wost, reâ€" spectfully presenting her letter, which al this time she had been holding open in her hand. "Dear Sisterâ€"inâ€"Law"â€"it ranâ€""I know you‘ve wondered many a time since I caught the gold fever and ran away to California, twenty years ago, what‘s beâ€" come of the willful lad that you and John couldn‘t manage; although you tried #o hard and so faithfully. 1 always meant to write to you some day, but I put it off from time to time in my hard, busy life, until now it‘s almost too late, and I seem to be writing to you from the borders of that other worla where I‘ve somehow heard my brother John went before me, and where I‘m hastening now.

Will you give her a mother‘s love and care? Reomember, she is friendless and forsaken in the world, without a living relative. What would become of her if you refused my dying prayer? I inclose a card with our New York addrecs upon it. She will wait there after I am dead until you come for her. I feel sure that you will come; you will rot disregard my dying wich and request.

The British People Can Afford to Be Generous. When in November last the Govâ€" ernment issued a revised scale of allowances and pensions for solâ€" diers, sailors and marines and their wives, widows, and dependents, this soale was assailed from all quarters, on the ground of its utter inadequacy. Accordingly, on the motion of the Prime Minister, a select committee was appointed to consider and report upon the whole question. â€" The committeeâ€"a _ reâ€" markably strong oneâ€"was repreâ€" sentative of all political parties It consisted of the following memâ€" bers of Parliament: iwo laberals, Mr. Lloyd George and Mr. McKen na, two Unioni@s, Mr. Bonar Law and Mr. Chamberlain, a Labor member, Mr. Barnes, and an Irish Nationalist, Mr. O‘Connor. This committee has now issued its re port, in which are recommended considerable advances on the for mer scale adopted by the Govern ment. Lady Larcaster was silent a moment. Her eyes wore very thought{ful; her thin lips worked nervously. Mrs. West waitâ€" ed patiently, her p‘amp hands folded toâ€" gether over the latter that had brought her . such â€"etrange, . unwelcome~ news. ‘"Where are you going to live when ~the child comes?" Lady Lancaster snapped, almost rude‘y : s _"I don‘t know yat. my lady. I have made no plans. I only received my letter a little while ago." ane‘t o o _*"You don‘t want my advice, 1 presume?" more en ishly than ever. "I_p!_:oufl be very glad of it," Mns. Weet "Oh, no, Lady Lancester; but I shouldn‘t have ;nn-ed to trouble you «0 dar," Mre. Weet replied, in her quiet way that was 60 strange a contrast to the other‘s irritability. _ _ gigh â€"*"Very well. I‘ve presumed to lay a plan for you," replied the grim old lady. (To be continued.) cook ? for N.C.O.‘s are to be ingly increased. "I should say so. She makes the most durable cake you ever saw." A soldier‘s or sailor‘s widow, without children, is to reccive a weekly pension of $2.40, to be inâ€" creased to 83 at the age of 35, and to $3.60 at 45 years old. Widows with children are to receive, in additios to the weekly pensions on the above scale, #$1.20 a week fur‘ the first child, eightyâ€"four cents a week for the second child, ang fortyâ€"eight cents a week for each subsequent child. On the re riage of any such widow, when he pension naturally terminates, «h6 is to receive a gratuity rangi from $2.50 to #3.74. All the abov figures relate only to the lowe ran‘ks in both services. The rates ‘‘Oh, the job wag gteady ; the trouble is Tom wasn‘t." For total disablement, in the case of both soldiers and sailorsâ€"for the report only applies to the lower ranks of the two services, and not to officers and their wives and deâ€" pendentsâ€"the committee proposes a weekly pension of 86, with the adâ€" ditions of sixty cents for each child. In the case of partial disablement the committee recommends that such a sum should be granted as, with the wages which the disabled man is judged capable of earning, will amount to 86 a week, but in no case is less than $2.50 a week to be allowed for the loss of a limb. The separation allowances are to be as follows : ‘‘Tom out of work again! Why I thought he had a steady job!‘ . No estimate of the nat‘onal lia bility under the committee‘s schem: is given. Under the circumstances any estimate would be the merest guesswork. But it is reasonably certain that, unless the war ends eooner than most people anticipate, the mational liability must run into many hundreds, if not thousands, of millions of dollars. But whatâ€" ever the total, there can be no doubt but that the British people desire to be generousâ€"and fortuâ€" nately can afford to be so. And yet even what is proposed is a mere pittance if considered as anything like compensation.‘‘ The reason for the separation allowance in the case of sailors beâ€" ing smaller than those in the case of soldiers is, of course, the fact that in the ordinary course of things the sailor is away just As much as he is during war, so that, financially, his family are not more likely to be straitened now _ than then, whereas with the soldier it is different.
