He hesitated. He could get out of it, even now. Multi-Motors was good enough for, him, | Again Lord Trottenleigh was speak- ing, and his suave cultured voice fore: edwhim to listen. TI.ord Trottenleigh held the atten- tion of the Board Room. A PROPOSAL "Well, it's lovely to have you back, Daphne, I don't suppose you'll be staying long, though, Botheration! there is that bell again, I wonder what it is this time, a penny stamp or a wireless licence, I begin to get quite excited every time the bell rings." Daphne smiled as Mrs, Birch left the room behind the Post Office and gazed about her rather wistfully. A friend of some years' standing, shé had come beck to Mys. Birch when she found that Lorna Gregory had died and left everything to her. It was curious to discover the reluctance she had to return to the farm or even to the cottage where she and ber father had lived for ten years. Even Daphne herself could not ac- count for it, Now, left alone {n the sitting-room, she looked about her, and recalled the man, pleasant hours, she had spent here in the past, when on her free half days from the chicken farm she had come here to talk to Mrs, Birch, a woman of culture and refine- ment who kept the village Post Of- fice, It was she who had suggested the farm of her sister-in-law as a place of refuge when Daphne wanted to get away, Back again now, she had not 'revealed the extent of .the for- tune left her, although the Birches knew that the chicken farm now wus her property. "I suppose you'll stay here for good now, Daphne," Mrs. Birch had said, "After all, the chicken farm must have paid, or Mrs, Gregory would never have. kept it on. Besides, look at all the improvements and alterations she made. It must be a paying concern," "Money in eggs!" Daphne sighed, remembering all the monotoneous work on the farm, the sorting, grad- ing, packing, pettifogging duties and wondered if, after all it were worth while, Suppose, just' suppose, she had been left the farm and nothing more, would she have been content to carry on? Her heart sank, think- ing of the endless years stretching ahead. When her father was alive it was a means to an end her salary Once during a pause in the pro- ceedings, he leaned back, and looked at him with downright respect, For the first time in his life Mich- ael Borde had found a man who had thoroughly taken him. in. Always he had raher disdained these county folk, improverished but secure in themselves, Like the Hamill Hardys, who -claimed to have come over with the Conqueror, Lord Trot- tenleigh's family did not receive re- cognition till the Battle of the Spurs; his ancestor then had been knighted for his gallantry. Michael Borde had read all this up; if he was golng to settle in Warwickshire as a country gentleman, he would know who were his neighbors; -until now, however, he, had held Lord Trottenleigh of small account. Watching him, as he swayed "the Board, noting how his quiet, persuasive voice carried weight and how even a gesture of his long, white-fingered "hand called for atten- tion; the man who had been born in a Birmingham 'slum acknowledged that birth and breeding count. "I'd give a lot to know his secret," ran his thoughts, _ Suddenly he remembered Hamill-Hardy, "Shes of this crowd. Blood won't mix with water," he told himself bit- terly, "You're a fool Michael Borde." "You are prepared to vote upon that, gentlemen?" asked the suave voice of Lord Trottenleigh, "Gosh," thought Michael Borde, "he'd make a vegetlerian turn meat- eater." There was a show of hands. For- getting himself, Michael watched the company, when he discovered Lord Trottenleigh"s eye upon him. Up went his hand like that of a school- boy. , "Carried unanimously," said. Lord Trottenleigh softly, and turned to the man at his side, the Secretary of the Company, "Insert that in the Min- utes, Cranleigh," he sald, Diana ~ DON'T RISK BAKING FAILURES . oo "DON'T TAKE CHANCES WITH INFERIOR BAKING POWDER.

He had bought the 'Manor House; report said that he was going to marry Miss Hamill-Hardy, she had seen their photographs published, so knew it must be true; indeed, Mrs. Birch was full of the gossip concern- ing it. All the village was aware of the alterations being made, New stables, It was said Miss Hamill-Har- dy was going to start training, she was always a good judge of horse- flesh, A new head gardener; at least that very supercilious person had gone, as well as the estate agent, and a keen alert-eyed young man in his place. Daphne looked up impatiently as the door opened. No, it was not Mrs, Birch, and she smiled at young Denis. Nice lad, Denis, it was a pity his col- lege career had been cut short. She began to consider seriously whether she could help him. After all, what was the use of money unless you could make some wise use of it? She had always liked Denis. Nice lad, It was not a lad who pleaded with her and spoke of love he hiad hidden for months; taken aback, Daphne looked into the eyes of a man, "I've loved you all this time, Da- phne," he cried, "I could not tell you before, but look, my dear, if you'll say ves I'll look for work till I am worthy of you, At an) rate you could live with mother here, there would be no need for you to work now I've got this job, If you can be con- tent with simple things, Daphne, and just my love, I am sure I could make you happy." He held her hands and she looked into his eyes, the eyes of a man she had always regarded as a boy. To Daphne Eden {it seemed strange, even then, that she should have gone solitary all .these thirty years of life, yet in the space of a few weeks two should tell of ther love to her. A shadow seemed to fling it- self across the floor. To be Continued pse-- True Astint Sees Beauty In The Drab Toronto--""The true artist is one who can see beauty in the common- place and interest in the drab, and can give the others a reflection the beauty that is within the reach of every one," said Arthur Lismer, | AR.C.A, addressing a meeting of the Young Women's Canadian Club on "Art today." Mr. Lismer contend. | ed that beauty has nothing to do; with exterior appearance and en- vironment, and was of the opinion that women have the power to get beyond the obvious and see beauty | and interest in the commonplace to a greater extent than man, of | Destroys Letters Some people never learn. Point No: 1 in rules for leading a happy life--the admonition not to send out letters ill @dapted to publicity -- was impressed on most youthful minds along with the pot hook and hanger precepts of the early copy book period. Yet under. the impulse of sudden enthusiasm a man with pen and paper will lay the found- ation of future martyrdom. Many a reputation has been impaired by "private communications made public. Careers 'have been wrecked because "of indiscretions proved by yellowed letters. Things written but better left unrecorded make conie-on bait for blackmailers. Nevertheless the mere act of taking "pen in hand" seems to banish discretion. The wiser the man the greater the fall. Poor old Napoleon is again to meet a Waterloo. The battles he won are overbalanced by the letters he wrote, Fervid masterpieces pen- ned to his wife by the grim little Emperor are offered to the highest bidder, It's well over a century since they were written--yet the world is on tip-toe to learn their contents. Marie Louise" would have done bet- ter to destroy them -- thus proving she had some common-sense, But Napoleon's sesond Empress didn't look ahead, What was intended for her eyes alone will now make an auction holiday.

New Signal System To Sum¥hon Doctor -- Toronto--Members of the medical profession are always on call; they never know when their services will be required in a hurry. When they seek recreation it is. with their "fingers crossed" in the hope that they will not be sent for. It isn't always possible to have an audience disturbed instanter, to make the announcement that "Dr, So-and-So is 'wanted at the office." "A Toronto Theatre has taken cognizance of this and has just in-| stalled a new system for making' such announcements. When Dr, So- and-So leaves his name at the office as he is going in, he is given a num- bered check. If a call comes for him that number will be flashed from a place on each side of the proscenium arch for half a minute. Without drawing undue attention to himself the physician can respond to the signal, The system also will be of use in case any physician should be re- quired for an emergency in the theatre or outside.

Now, how- ever, it has lost one of two twins who, although they were well known in the Street, were rarely known to have spoken to a stranger. The twins were called Oliver -- John Samuel and William James. Their age was 77 years; well-weath- ered little men, with light-¢olored, wide-brimmed hats, sugestivé of men who had spent the best part of their days' in Australia"or New Zealand. One of them nearly always led a small pug-dog on a chain. They business at the back of Fleet Street, and for many years, they hal lived above the business, coming into Fleet street for a walk only after the day's work was done. They were both bachelors, and it is said that they had never been separated for more than a day or two at a time, and they set up in business in Gunpowder . Alley, New Street Hill, in the year of the Franco-Prussian War, Perhaps the strangest venture of their lives occurred three years ago, when, to celebrate their 74th birth- day, they bought a sports motor- car, which' they took ou on the roads at week-ends, Now that John Samuel is dead--few people could distinguish which was which--Wil- liam James has decided to motor no more," | "Education cannot make a child appreciate life, so much as life can make him appreciate education."-- .
