After nil, the mother of my beloved can do no wrong." "People might bo safe away up there on tho Morne d'Orange," sho said, fear fully, "but you must pass to and fro through tho city!" -Gently he turned her fnco from the hid den city. "Look yonder Into the splendid night!" he whispered. "Feel the sting of the spray. Hear the bows sing! It's nil for us, Lara, the gilded track to the moon, the loveliest of earth's distances nnd the sky afterward! We can't leave this grent thing undone. Listen, dearest ; when tho dawn comes up the Madame will be lying seven or eight miles off shore. I'll tnke the launch Into the har bor, and climb the morne once more to the big plantation house, bringing your love nnd mine to the mother-bird whom I owe for all things good. If she will not come with me, I shall command Uncle Joey to take her to Fort de France. After that " She was clinging to him and sobbing. "After that?" she repeated. "Wo steam for Fort tie Franco then," he said, "and Father Damien must spare us an ..hour from his labors. After that, beloved, you and I and the honeymoon out on tho swinging seas !" Just now Denny Macready appeared on the bridge. "Lara, I want you to know this Den ny," said Constable. "I found him in n stoke-hold, and haven't been able to get rid of him since. He's my steward at sea, my butler ashore, and Tours solid' anywhere. Denny, I'm going ashore at dawn " " 'Tis crool t hear, sorr." "That point is pretty well covered, ben ny. I want you that is, I'm leaving Mss Stansbury in your hands." "Sh-sh wait till I putt on me gloves." "How are your charges faring, Denny?" Constable asked. "Is ut th little wans, you mane?" "Yes, the natives." "If I on'y had some goats, sorr!" "Why goats?" "Sure, I've been potherin' with lime wather an sea wather an' wather straight an' sugar av milk whin goats could do ut all, an' betther." Macready went- below, leaving a laugh on the bridge which was no little thing. The Madame crept in to the edge of the smoke. The gray ghost of morning was stealing into the hateful haze. The ship found anchorage. The launch was in readiness below. It was six in the morn ing. Pugb, the new third officer, was just leaving the bridge. Constable and Lara were standing at the door of his cabin. ' "I know that you could do no greater thing than this for me," she told him; "but when a woman comes into her own es I have it is terrible to be left alone bo' soon. There are warnings in the wind, menaces in the silence, dangers in every thing. It cannot bo that I have found you, my lover, only to lose you again. Oh, come back to me quickly, dear!" "Three hours shall see us on our way to Fort de France," he answered blithely. "Trust me to hurry back to you. Pelee is still now. It may be that the pressure is eased " "There, kiss me, and don't wait! The very name of Pelee Is horrible!" She moved with him to the ladder. "I thought I would be braver than this, Pierre Va lour !" He whispered a last word and descend ed. Ernst had been relieved, and another sailor was in tho launch, one for whom preparations had been made in the dim hall. Constable was happy. He waved a kiss at the pale, mute face leaning over Bide, and the fog rushed in between. CIIAPTEIt XIV. The launch -gained the inner harbor, and the white ships at anchor were seen vague phantoms in the vapor French steamers, Italian barques, and the small er West Indian craft all with their work to do and their way to win. Constable beard one officer shout to another, in quiring if Saint Pierre was fn the usual place, or bad switched sites with Hades. The day was clearing rapidly, however, and before the launch reached shore the haze was so lifted that Pelee could be seen, floating a pennant of black out to sea. In the city a large frame ware house was ablaze. The tinder-dry struc ture was being destroyed with almost ex plosive speed. "Wait for roe here," Constable said to the sailor, as the launch 'scraped the Sugar Landing. A blistering heat rushed down from the expiring building to the edge of the land. Crowds watched the destruction. Many of the people were in holiday attire. This was the Day of Ascension, and Saint Pierre would shortly pray and praise at the cathedral. Even now the bells were calling, and there was low laughter from a group of maidens. Was it not good to live, since the sun shone again and the mountain did not answer the sainted belia? It was true that Pelee poured forth a black streamer with lightning In Its folds; true that the people trod upon tho hot gray dust of the volcano's waste ; that the heat was such as no man had ever felt before and many sat in misery upon the ground ; true, Indeed that voices of hysteria came from the hovels, and the breath of uncovered death from the by waysbut the gala spirit was not dead. The bells were calling; the mountain was still; bright dresses were abroad for the torrid children of France must augb. Constable fell In with tho procession on the way to the cathedral. Reaching there, he climbed to n huge block of stone In the square, and hurled broadcast the germ of flight. Many bad seen him be fore, when his face was haggard, no was smiling now. Tbero was color In his kin, fire Jn his eyes, a ring In his voice. Fear was not in him. A carriage was not procurable, so be Wtivd toward the Morne d'Orange. It was seven-thirty, nnd tho distance was two miles to the plantation house. At eight, o'r soon afterward, ho would bo mere eight on tho morning of Ascension Day; nt nine, In tho launch again, speed ing out to the smllo of tho bride! Twenty times a minute she recurred to him as ho walked. There was no waning uor wearing save a wearing brighter, perhaps of the lmnces sho had nut In his mind. The night had' brought him pniaces ana gardens nnd treasure houses: everywhere he turned, new riches broke upon him. That her face had lain be tween his hands; that his hands had brought that face to his own; that her whispers, kisses, confidences, her prayers and passions nnd coming years, all found their center nnd origin in himself, like bright doves that had n coto within his heart these thoughts lifted tho poor man to such heights of pralso and blessedness that he seemed to shatter the dome of hu man limitations, and emerge crown nnd shoulders into the iilimitnblo ether. The road up the morne stretched blind ing white before him. Panting and spent not a little, he strode upward through the vicious pressure of heat, holding his helmet free from. his head, that the nlr might circulate under the rim. At length, upon the crest of the morne, he perceived the gables of the plantation house, nbove the palms and mangoes, gold-brown in the dazzling haze. Pelee roared. Sullen and dreadful out of the silence voiced the monster, roused to his labor afresh. The American began to run, glancing back at the darkening north. The crisis was not paused in favor of peace. Tho holiday was darkened. The Madame would fill with refugees now, nnd the road to Fort de France turn black with flight. These were his thoughts as he ran. The lights of the day burned out one by one. The crust of the earth stretched to a cracking tension. The air was beet ling with strange concussions. In the clutch of realization, he turned one shin ing look toward the sea. Detonations ac cumulated into the crash of a thousand navies. On the porch of the plantation house, twenty yards away,, stood the mother of Lara, her eyes fascinated, lost in the north. At the steps he fell, caught her skirt, her waist, in his hands. Across the lawn, through the roaring black, he bora her, brushing her fingers and her fallen hair from his face. He reached the curb ing of the old well with his burden,, crawl ed over, and grasped the rusty chain. It candescent tongues lapped the cistern's raised coping, and running streams of red dust filtered down. It was eight in the morning of Ascen sion Day. La Montagne Pelee was giv ing birth to Death. CHAPTER XV. When the launch entered the dpnser cloud and faded from her slsbr, Miss Stansbury retired to the cabin. Over all her thoughts of the unhallowed parting from her mother the night before, and the clean, valorous act of her lover now, hung the defined terror lest Pelee should inter vene. She heard Macready'a step at the door; the calm voice of an officer on the bridge; the morning bells. The pale winding sheet was unwrappud from the beauty of morning. Thrju:;h a port-hole Bhe saw the rose and gold on the far, dim hills. Her eyes smarted from weariness, but her mind, liko an auto matic thing, swept arcmnd the great cir cle from the ship to the city, to the house beyond the morne and back again. She saw him in the launch, In the midst of native groups xn the shore, in the plantation house, begging her mother to listen. Importuning Uncle Joey to take her to Fort de France, returning through the streets with people following the crowded launch, and then the joy of emp ty arms filled. But sometimes Pelee would burst into the deepening channel of thoughts, effacing the' whole, and leaving her, a shrieking, dishevelled creature, In tha midst of a chaos which would not an swer. She went on deck. Laird, the first officer, Invited her to ascend the bridge. He was scrutinzing through the glass a blotch of smoke on the city front. "What do you make of It, Miss Stansbury?" he asked. The lenses brought to her a nucleus of red in the black bank. The rest of Saint Pierre was a gray doll settlement, set In the shelter of little gray hills. She could see the riven and castellated crest of Pelee, weaving his black ribbon. It was all small, silent and unearthly. "That's a fire on the shore," sho said. "Exactly," said Laird. Shortly afterward the trumpetlngs of the monster began. The harbor grew yellowish-black. The shore -crawled deep er Into the shroud, and was lost alto gether. The water took on a foul look, as if the bed of the sea were churned with some beastly passion. Tho anchor chain drew taut, mysteriously strained, and banged a tattoo against the steel-bound eye. Blue Peter, drooping at the fore mast, livened suddenly into n spasm of writhing, like a hooked lizard. The black, quivering columns of smoke from the fun nels were fanned down upon tho deck, adding soot to tho white smear from tho volcano. Lara felt Macready pulling at her arm. "l'o musht go below, miss. Ye know me ordbers." . She rebelled with sudden vehemence, declaring that bIio would smother down there. "You can do no good here, sure. Don t make It crool fur me?" "Make haste below, miss squall com ing 1" commanded Laird. Gentleness and jollity were gono from the largo red face. She suffered herself to bo drawn- down the ladder, crushed by the officer's words, and the Iron fingers of fear closing about her heart. A hot, fetid breath charged the air. Tho water danced, nllve with the yeost of worlds, The disordered sky in toned violence. Pelee bad set the foun dations to trembling. Lara drifted Into the open polar region, Despair. These jaen were all bl friends. Sho must not hinder them. They had much to uo. Her part wns self-effacement In tho dnrkcnlng passageway sho heard Lnird shouting orders nbove, heard him command tho native women to "tumblo be low," nnd tho sailors to seal tho ways nftcr them, henrd tho deep sen lnngungo and "barometer" "Constnblo" There wcro running feet, bells below, cries from tho nntlvo "women, quick oaths from tho sailors. Tho ship rose and settled llko n feather in n breeze. Sho wns incapublo of swift notion Macready lifted her Into the cabin nnd slnmmcd tho door, rushed to tho ports nnd screwed them tight with lightning fingers, led her to n chnlr and locked It In Its socket. "That's the deere." ho said breathless ly. "Shud so much ns n shpnrk from tho mountain rnlso so much ns n bloosh upon your cheek, suro I'd nlver bo nblo f face Mr. Constnblo ngaln, but go on sthokln foriver an Ivor." "It's very good of you," bIio answered dully. She sat very still, not daring to relax tho rigid tension of her fnce, her hands, or her brnln, lest tho scream of madness break forth. From out tho shoreward darkness thundered vtbrntlons which ren dered soundless nil that had passed be fore. Comets flashed by the port holes. Tho ship shuddered nnd fell to her star board side. Eight bells hnd just sounded when the grent thunder rocked over tho gray-black harbor, nnd the molten vitnls of the mon ster, wrapped In n blnck cloud, filled the heavens, gathered themselves, and plunged down upon the city nnd tho sea. As for the de Stacl, eight miles from shore nml twelve miles from the craters, she seemed to have fallen from a hnbltahlo planet Into the flrc-mlst of nn unfinished world. She heeled" over like a biscuit tin, dipping her bridge nnd gunwnlcs. She wns del uged by blasts of steam and molten stone. Her anchor chain gave way, and, burn ing in a half-dozen places, sho was sucked iu-shore. (To be continued.) FLO'S PHOTOGRAPHS.. Her nor Friend Were Alwny Glvlnjr Her Their Picture. "Don't you think Kent Hampton's Inst photograph Is n splendid one?" Flo Davol naked, carelessly. A swift color flnshetl across Rnchcl Hill's fnce. Sho tried to make her voice Indifferent, but tho hurt would show n little. "I lmveu't seen It," Bhe replied. "Hnven't seen It?" Flo echoed, "now queer, when you are Buch friends! I have It somewhere here " She began hunting through the pho- tocrnnhs crowding her desk. They were nearly all photographs of boys or youne men. nnd Kent's wns elenriy m sight, ns Rachel, with n flash of con tempt, saw nt once, although it wns several minutes before Flo npparently discovered It Then she handed It to Rachel. Her whole elaborate, over dressed little figure betrayed her de light In her pretty triumph. "It certainly Is queer thnt he didn't give you one," she repeated, "but the boys are nlwajis giving things to nie. Renllr, I don't know what to do with half of them!" As Rachel walked homo through the September' afternoon her eyes were full of bitterness. Why wns It, she wonder ed, that girls like Flo got so much more than their share of good times nnd things? She would not have cared about the others, but Kent Hnmpton, who had been her playmate ever since she could remember, nnd was going away to college In two days. Oh, Flo could have had anything else If sho only hnd not spoiled thnt dear ok' friendship. That evening Kent came over with his chum who wns nlso Rnchel's cousin Tom Cnlvcrly. Usually the three hnd the hupplest of evenings, but this time something wns plainly wrong. The boys kept up their nonsense, but It did not "go" ns usual. Finally 'row remarked of -something: "It's dend easy ns easy ns ono of Flo Davol's photographs eh, Kent?" Rachel crew red. then pnle. "l should think you'd be nshamed!" sho cried, facing them Indignantly, The boys stared nt each other In per plexity. To loko over a elrl when you give her your picture," sho stammered. ' "It It's contemptible!" Kent's lips tightened, but Tom whis tled softly. , "Look here, Ray," ho naked, "don't you know, honest?" "Know -what?" Rnchel inquired. "The way she getB those pictures. She cets them by asking that's how. She nsks so thnt n fellow can't refuse unless he's n brute. I guess I hrfvo hnlf a dozen of hers somewhere round. Kent, here, Is such a Sir Galnhnd he burns them snys it's not fair to linvo them lying round, even If tho girl did force them on you." "Oh!" Ttahel cried, Boftly. But un In her room that night Bhe looked out with happy yes Into the dark. It was so good to keep ono's friends on the old high terms It was uo good to keep ono's self-respect! Youth's Companion.

Wo often get such requests and aro usually nblo to 011 them." Dairy Idol. Cows becomes favorites with their owners not altogether by renson of tho milk they produce. We have known cows thnt their owners thought n great deal of because of tho kindly disposi tion of tho nninmls. Ono cow that tho writer remembers gave but a fow quarts of milk n day, but she was a pet of tho family. She would prefer the company of members of the family rather thnn that of other cows, it tno cows wero being taken to pasture sho would Insist on walking by the side of the ono In charge of tho herd. It Is hard to order a cow of this kind sent to tho butcher, nnd many ncoplo will not do It; Instead, tho animals nro kept for a dozen yenrs, nnd not only allowed tn nf llti flirt nrrtt-rmilor without rC turning a compensation for It, but nro alowed to ndd to tho herd more cows nftor their own ability not to produce milk. These may fairly 1k, called dnlry Idols. Their owners claim grent things for them without being able to substnn- Mate tho truth of what they say. But the fnml v net s not tlio only brand of dairy Idol. There are tho gen eral purpose cows that quite generally have the entire confidence of their own ers as to their great value. They nro idols that the single-purpose cow men hnve demolished again nnd again, to their own satisfaction, but they are still to be found nil over tho hind. The dalrv Idol is a thine that enn be dlsiKHised with to tho advantage of tho owners of the cows. Tho wnrfnro ngnlnst them will bo kept up, and little by little tho factors wo are warring against will disappear. It may, how ever, take about as lona to cllmlnnto them ns It took Christianity to drive the idols out of the pagan world. 1 armors Uevlcw. IUk in Drenched Cottle. Doctor David Roberts,, State Veteri narian of Wisconsin, gives this advice: Perhaps tho best way of demonstrating tho dnnger of drenching cnttlo Is to ad vise the reader to throw back bis head as far as possible and attempt to swnl- low. This you will find to bo a diffi cult task, and you will Hnd It moro difficult nr.d almost Impossible to swal low with the mouth open. It Is for this reason that drenching cnttlo Is a dangerous practice. However, if a cow's head be raised as high as possible and her mouth kept open by tho drenching bottle or horn, n portion of tho liquid Is very apt to pnss down tho windpipe Into the lungs, sometimes causing In stant death by smothering, nt other times causing denth to follow In n few days from congestion or lnflnmmntlon of tho lungs. Give nil cattle their medicine hypodermically or In feed. If they refuse fowl give It dry on the tongue. The proper method of giving a cow medicine Is to stand on tho right sido of tho cow, placing the left nrm around the nose nnd nt the snmo time opening her mouth, nnd with n spoon in tno right hand place tho medicine, which should be In a powdered form, back on the tongue ; she can then swal low with snfety.

To Tell the Aue of Stvlne, It may bo Interesting to those who do not already know It. to learn of some way to arrive at tho ago of pigs, do we give tho following: PIks having their corner permanent Incisors cut will be considered ns ex ceeding six months.

The hoof of tho mule, being smaller nnd tougher thau that of tho averago horse, does not need shoeing unless worked on hard roads a great deal, it Is better 'hot to have them shod Jf con fined to work on tno farm, unless used to haul heavy loads on frozen ground, Nutriment In Milk, Bulletin No. 51 from tlio Btorrs Aff. rleultuml Experiment Station, Con necticut, Ih a most excellent one on tlio origin or sources of thoso Hiuall or gnnlsins colled bacteria, which aro found so abundantly In mlllt. Tho bulletin also contains somo ratlior startling statements and flomo whole somo suggestions. Among tho statements which ought to mnko tho average man sit up ami think aro tho following; "A quart of milk nt 8c Is equivalent In food valuo to a pound of beef nt 18c. This means that -le worth of milk gives ns much food energy In tho body ns l)e worth of beef. "Tho averago Individual consumes three or four times as much meat In u day ns the body actually needs for ro pair, and for Its highest physical con dition. "If tho American peoplo would eat one-half less meat and consumo one half moro milk, they would savo about $150,000,000, In money and In health, enough to make tho doctors' bills look smnll." To Fatten Fowl. Shut tho fowls up In a darkened place with Just enough light for them to seo to eat, nnd feed on corntucal, ground oats, cracked wheat and shorts, which may be mixed In equal propor tions and scalded. Feed as often dur ing the day ns they will eat up tho fo6d clean. That Is to say, stuff them. Take n light and feed again Just bo fore your bedtime, and ns early In tho morning ns possible. Supply them with grit and water and keep the premises clean. Half a dozen fowls to gether will fatten more quickly than a largo number, ns they will not pine for company. Cooked potatoes, rice, corn bread, cracked corn nnd whole wheat may also be fed. Give no green stuffs, ns It Is too filling nnd will do no good. Fowls crowded this way should be In fine condition In two weeks. Shut up longer, they aro likely to begin to mope nnd will go back rather thnn lucrenso In weight Rural World. Improved Uor Ten, A largo hog pen with spaco for both sleeping and feeding enn bo arranged with a floor on onc-hnlf to ensuro a I'EJf WITH HKCTIONA1. FUXHL dry bed.

It Is made of strong materials, usually 2 In. by 4 In. stuff, nnd rests on cleats in tho bottom of tho pen. Tho Milk Machine. There Is mighty llttlo sentiment nbout n cow. She's nothing but n deli cately organized mllk-mnklng machine. Her nervous organization Is well de veloped, though, nnd Is easily disturbed, but If she Is well supplied with milk mnklng material and Is let alono she will turn out a good (rroduct nnd plenty of It, provided, of course, she Is built on tho right lines. A poor mnchlno of any kind Is a curse to tho owner. Money In IrrlRiitlon, Two hundred feet of tho levco on the San Joaquin River In California gave way nnd Hooded -1,000 acres of growing crops, causing a loss of $5,000,000. Crops worth ?1,'-'.V) an aero aro not rare In an Irrigated district, though tho figures nbove given would look llko a misprint to an Easterner. About 5100 acres of the Inundated nren were In celery, and tho value would run far above the averago stated. El Paso Herald. lli-ntu thn Steam Shovel. A Kansas paper says that If all the hogs raised In that Stato last year could be rolled Into one hog, It could dig the Panama Canal In two roots and a half, and wants to know how long It would take a Missouri hen to scratch out tho canal. Wo don't know nbout that, but we do know that the Missouri hen can pay for the big ditch In ono nnd a half years. Ilumnnsvlllo (Mo.) Star. Not the fanner Thin Time. Prof. Truemnn of tho University pf Illinois, after making a searching in vestigation, declared that milk dealers of Chicago systematically adultcrato and water milk delivered to families In the poorer sections of tho city. In many instances tho stuff Is entirely un lit for food. In tho better resldcnco districts, however, tho milk was nearly always up to standard. Milk VmieU. Use no t wooden milk vessels, and after washing milk vessels set them out to dry scalding hot Never rlnso out with cold water nfter. tho final scalding.
