f ^ I) C Sing Me to Sleep -J By AGNES G. HERBERTSON 1 I < "1 have come to fetch Margot home," he said quietly. There was a silence. "Do you hear, Margot?" -said < . Jane Greet. The other woman did not reply. But for the moving needle she might have been carved from stone. i The old woman looked from the girl to her son, from one dark face to the other. They were curiously alike, those two faces, both showing the impress of a strong and stubborn will. Thev were curiously unlike, too, the varying fires in the girl's eyes leaping out to meet a sober practicality and steadfastness in those of the man. "Margot, are you ready ?" said David. > He waited again, and again the needle went in and out, his only rep]y. After a pause, "She says she is not going back to you," said Jane Greet unwillingly. "She has said that to me, too," said David Greet?"that is to say, she has written it. She wrote it. in a hard, cruel letter, which she left for me to read when I-came in." Tn anitp r>f himself his voice shook. He paused for a moment to steady it. "I shall not believe that letter, Margot. It was unworthy of you. I tshail not believe that you mean to do anything so cruel and wicked 1" The words came out with a jerk. "Margot, I am waiting to take you home." She would not answer. With a quick stride he crossed the room. "You shall speak to me!" he cried. "I am not a dog that I do not deserve a word?though you are not a woman, but a stone, or you would not sit there and refuse to utter it! Speak! Are you or are you not coming home?" Without raising her eye^, "I am not coming," said Margot Greet. David turned away, ' reaihing heavily. "There's the weakness of strength and the weakness of weakness," he said. "You can give in to a woman because you're stronger than her, and that's the way I went about it with Margot. But she thought it was the other kind of way, the weak way, and she's had to learn different. There ere times when a man must show himself a man if he's to remain one." He strode away, and Jane Greet , brushed the tears from her eyes. ! "Well, she's with me?his mother? j anyway. Folks can't talk to any great length," she thought, with a ' sigh. Then she went back to the stubborn girl who was her son's wife. I Margot was sitting where she bad left her, still sewing. "Trhat are you going to do?" asked Jane. A harshness bad crept into her tone. "I have already told you. I shall find something to do, and I am not going back," said the younger woman. - "If you are not going back you shall find nothing to do. You must stay here with me," said J are Greet. "1 canna have the wnoie 01 iveston ; talkin' about my son's wife.'' And so things went on. Margot j worked for her mother-in-law only, ! and her passivity ate into her very souL But she would not go back to the man to whom she had not yet been wedded a year. There came a day when Jane Greet met her with an odd look on her withered face. She had not mentioned the name of the girl's husband since that dark night, deeming it better so. But today she spoke. "He is going away?my son and your man," she said liercelv. "Mayhap the cruise will take him far and keep him long. Mayhap it will take him so far and keep him so long that he will never return. And tomorrow he goes." She went away, trying to hide ber tears. But the lad's wife spoke never a word. Jane never knew that, that night Margot went to look at her old home. For a few short moments she stood in the darkness looking at the windows of the little house I whieh had seen her greatest hapi>i nesa and her passionate rebellion. There was no light in it, and she * thought David was out till siie heard him begin to sing. That was an old trick of his?to sing in the dark. And on the old harmonium he could i pick out just tire few notes he needed. How well she knew the song! TIe sang it with a little break in his voice, and she knew who had put that break there: Love. I ?Lm so lonely, years are so long. I want you only, you and your song; Dark 1s life's shore, love, night is'so deep; Leave aae no more, love, sing me to sleep. For a moment after the deep voice had died away she stood there, one hand pressed close upon her breast, shaken with the conflict between pride and passionate regret. But pride won, and she moved at fast only to go back to his mothers house/ He vr? gone long, and Margoi grew pale and thin, but she uttered ne\mr a word.. "Gin, you have no heart?you aire as told as a stone!" old Jane * burst out passionately one day-^thnt day whtfu news tame that David Greet would never return to the little Ashing village, but lie instead in ? the lonely sea! Still David's wife would not speak, but at night she t .stood by her window and looked up 4 i at the clear stars with a white face. "J think I must have a hea rt, for J can feci it break;' she tuid when there was none to hear her. But the rumor was a lie, and he ?ame back. "He has done well and has come back right, Margot," said the old woman. She looked at her daughter-in-law with uncompromising eves. "He could give you fine clothes now and the best looking house in Keston." Then for the lirst time was Margot's calm broken, and she was moved to speech. "1 will never go back to him!" she cried fiercely. She threw down her work a$d left the room. How was Jane to know that in that moment her heart was stolen from her, and she felt in its place but a lump of heavy gold that tore her breasty Wherever she went slit felt it there, and it hurt sorely. When she passed David in the street her lingers shook, but that weight in her bosom pressed, and she remembered his gold and passed on. Oh, it was ill to be without a heart and have only a lump of gold that must always stand between herself and the man she loved! "lie is rich now," said Margot, and she was can ful that she did not meet him again. She .-pent mucli time in planning that her ways might not touch his. In the evening she sewed sti? and she was sewing when Jane Grcci came to her with the news whicli she thought so ill. "Oh, you were a wise woman. Margot," she said, "to keep away from such a fool. No one but a fool would lose all his money in going security for such a man as John Stanton is. David is a rich man no more Every penny that he brought back with him,is frittered away and al. else that he had besides. Be thankful, Margot Greet, that you are noi my son's wife in anything bul name!" She went away, a red eyed anc furious old woman, but Margot sal on like one stunned. Then she arose and put away hei sewing. She did not set it on th< little table, as she always did, bul rolled it up and, with a curiously impatient gesture, set it awav in olc Jane's drawer. "That's finished with," said she Yet the sewing was not nearly done Afterward she put on her hat, anc the shawl which she usually put ovci her head when she ran out she crossed upon her arm. She cast one look around the little room and to ward the staircase where Jane hat disappeared. Then she opened the door and went into the street. That was curiously quiet, ant there was a fog. It was but one short year since Margot Greet hac quarreled with her husband ant gone away. She found her way through the streets and around the corners jusi as surely as he had done, but she was not unconscious of the way sl? wound. The consciousness of thai shook her through and through ant would have shaken her still more had she but had a heart left witl: wiucn 10 xeei. David's pane made a little disk oi light, which greeted her kindly, yel it hurt, for it reminded her of the yellow gold in her breast. But he was singing, this time ir the light, and she paused to hear: Sing me to sleep and let me rest; In all the world I loved you best. Nothing Is faithful, nothing true. In heaven or earth but God and you. It was not true, that song of Da vid's. She had not been true to hin or faithful, but she would be now Taars came into her eyes, and as they ran down her cheeks something broke in her breast and melted away David's light smiled kindly at hei as she opened the door and 6teppec into it, leaving the fog and gloom. "David," she said simply, "I havt come."?Black and White. Presence of Mind. Wearily the tramp wandered uj the garden path one summer's da} and took off his hat to the womai of the house. She eyed him keenly "Look here! Are you the man ] gave a big meal one February mom ing?" she demanded sternly. "I'n the man, mum," was the reply ''Well, do you remember*you prom ised to shovel the snow out of the back yard and then sneaked off with out doing it?" asked the woman "Yes, mum. An' me conscience smote me," answered the tramp "That's the reason I tramped al the way here through the blazing sun to finish the job." A Snow Suggestion. The next time the snowdrifts intc your yard instead of making a snow man try making a snow pig. An oblong mass of snow forms the body, ami the legs, nose and ears are made of sticks surrounded by snow. A bit of rope nicely curled will make a very good tail.

A Queer Tidbit. How many of you have ever tasted cakes of ants? Xo, not the kind made by aunts, but with ants. The children of other countries are as fond of cakes made of these insect: a- the New England boys and girl: are of crullers. In Africa the natives wash the ants and fry them in butter ver} much as we would fritters. These -cakes are regarded as great delica: cies and .in that land are said tc taste like nuts. i . :;v.t ! m> "a vsciYv*iii r?fM?Ti lrrww?aB Please Your Hair i Don't have a falling out with your hair.

He I walked along a road dividing a stul> ? ble field, and in nearing a bunch of grass alongside of the road a bull eh 1 of birds got up out of tiie grass. He ? gave them the first barrel as they I rose, but missed. Then he gave 1 them the second and saw two drop. One was dead, but the other onlv i wounded, lie picked up the dead t bird and, having no dog, ran after ? the wounded bird and retrieved it. > Then he followed up the bijMs he t had marked down in some scrub | oak to try for another shot. ? About an hour afterward we came , along the same place, when S. noticed one of the beagles mouthing a f bird in the bunch of grass. The l grass was about a foot and a half ; high, about two yards long and one yard wide. S. shouted to the dog , to drop it and ran toward him. We both got there about the same time, and S. had taken the bird from the dog, saying, "Why, it's a quail." Just then I noticed one at my feet and said, "Here's another." S. walk{ ed on a step and said, "Here's another." Just then W. eame along " i -l *1 UT r , ana stopped and saia, aieres uu* other," picking one up at the same ' time. Well, we picked up four quail " in that bunch of grass. The birds j were still quite warm and were lying on their breasts, with wings spread out. Well, we all wondered how such a thing could have happened. We all had heard H. shoot twice after he had been gone a short time, but no * others. Just then we saw H. comr ing up the road. When he got to 1 us we asked him if he had fired the : two guns a short time before. "Yes," said he, "What at?" asked S. "Quail," said II. Then he explained 1 that as ho walked along the road the * bunch of quail got up about sixty feet away, lie fired the first barrel, i but missed, "as he thought," as they got up out of the grass. Then he * gave them the left barrei, knocking 1 down two. "The one was dead, but * I had a good run after the other ' one," he said, "and here they are," ' taking the two birds out of his game pocket. We then told him about the four we had found, and after a lot of talk and study we concluded that 1 he had shot too low with the first barrel and killed the birds on the rrrminrt drift Tint lfTIOU'inir it. liad J,n/unu D , gone right on after the others. > II. lias been my shooting partner for the past eighteen years, and we ! all know him to be a thorough i sportsman, one who would not shoot 1 a quail on the ground.

Paper was invented by a Chinaman who was contemporaneous with Christ. He was a secretary at court during the reign of Hwang Wu, a prince who reigned A. D. 25-58. In early ages when the Chinese had no written language they had no special Tippd nf naner. Real estate transfers , were certified by means of a piece,of cord, in which knots were tied, according to the number of acres sold or the price paid. But as population increased and business transfers became more frequent something ore definite than the cord was roedod, and the art of writing came into use. At that time the deed of purchase consisted of a few letter. on a bit of bamboo. As knowledge increased and literature began to be cultivated, legal and historical records became more numerous. These bamboo strips were then found to be heavy and cumbersome, and the need of a lighter and less bulky material was felt. The secretary, Ts'ai Lun, then began his experiment in paj>er making. How long he worked before he met wiih success is not known; but, at any rale, the materials with which he e.v. rimented and of which paper was formed are, with all the experience which has since been gained, fo> n?! to be the best for the purpose. Though the Chinese have since substituted other materials for the formation of the pulp from which their paper is made?purely for economical reasons?Ts'ai Lun had the satisfaction of accomplishing that for which he had worked. The manner of manufacture soon became generally known, and paper factories were established in all parts of the kingdom. , With the spread of learning, whic5i received an impetus from the facilities afforded by this invention, the demand for paper soon exceeded the supply. Old rags were not plentiful nor cheap enough to {>ermit of paper being made and sold as cheaply as was necessary or desirable. Accordingly, experiments were made with other substances and proved successful.?New Nprald. I 1 Lemons as Medicine Their Wonderful Effect on the Liver, * Stomach, Bowels, Sidneys and Blood.
