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. Various pigs can
be shaped and carved according to
the skill of the young artist and will
give a lively and social appearance
to your yard and cause the neighbors
a great deal of amusement?a)
your ex}>ense, perhaps.
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.

A POT SHOT.
It Wat an Unintentional One, but H
} Bagged Four Quail.
r Four of us were o^t rabbiting,
i with indifferent success. II. got
i tired of it and thought lie would try
- to walk up a bunch of quail. 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

' 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

barrel and killed the birds on the

invention of paper.
The Credit Is Given to a Chinaman of
the Firsi Century.
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
