: Aunt Diana i The Sunshine of the Family m oeooeeeoeeeeee ra.'?- OIIAPTER IX. Miss Cnrnngton received n letter from Alison boor after this, the conclusion of which made her smile; but that was not Alison's fault, Roger had tnken posses nion of the half-finished sheet of note paper and had filled it after his own fash ion, adding a lengthy message from UmlM. Alison protested In vain; the letter must go with Rogers' appendix or else a day's Iost would be lost. "We have good times now and then, ftud get up a laugh and astonish ourselves. One thing, I have enjoyed my. breakfast for the last three weeks. No more luke warm coffee, poured out with an acidu lated smile, we hnvc the real thing in smiles now. There, I think I have in flicted enough on you, so I will subscribe myscelf, ''Your nffectionate and grnteful nephew, -ROGER." When Miss Carrington read this letter to Mr. Moore, on the old bench by the river, a pleased look came over the old man's face. "I like that lad," he said, striking his ivory-headed stick into the ground. "I remember his voice pleased- me when he was here some years ago; a good honest voice it was. Mark my words, Miss Pi ano, our little sunbeam is fulfilling Ler mission." "I think Roger is all the happier for having his sister," returned Miss Carring ton, with a sigh. "Oh," he said, turning his sightless face toward her quickly, "you are missing the child, and so am I. Sunny is beyond -our reach just now: one can not help wishing her back sometimes. For my part, I had no idea how sorely I should miss my little pupil." "I always knew what her loss would be to me," returned Miss Cariington, with some emotion; "that is the worst of iso lating one's affections. I have so few who are absolutely necessary to me; only you and Grevilie and Allie three out of this world full of millions; it seems wrong somehow." "The fewer to love the fewer to leave," replied the old man, somewhat dreamily. "Do you know," observed Miss Carring ton, a little abruptly, ."that Grevilie is very angry with me for sending Allie away?" "Oh, he has written to you, has he?" with a half smile, for he had already re ceived a stormy letter from lib grandson on the same subject. . t. 1 ? L II., if, lie is us uiuigiiiUiL an pussiui? about the sacrifice, as he terms it. lie calls me shabby for not letting bim into the secret; he declares he shall go round by Chesterton on his way home and have it out with Alison: but I have put a stop to that." "What! you deprived him and Sunny of that poor little pleasure? What a 1iard-hearted woman you are, Miss Diana ! and yet you were young yourself once." "My dear friend, it would not do at all," returned Miss Carrington, in her most resolute tone. "You spoil that boy bo dreadfully that you give in to nil his whims. You want me to keep you all in order." "But where would be the harm?" per sisted Mr. Moore, smiling. "Just a call and a chat; why, it would do Sunny good." "No, no; it would only unsettle her. Grevilie shall go down to The Holms some day, but not just yet. Allie will get on better if we leave her entirely to her self the first- few months. Why, unless things go very wrong, I do not intend to go down myself until next spring. But Grevilie, oh, no; I told him on no ac count to do it" "And you expect him to obey you, I iiuppose?" "Oh, yes, he will obey me now. Later on, perhaps But we shall see. I am iiurc it would be only cruel kindness for Grevilie to unsettle her. 'She frets enough lifter. us, I am sure of that, and seeing him will only bring us more vividly be fore her. Besides, there are other rea sons: but, my good old friend, you do not often distrust my wisdom." "Nor do I now," he returned, slowly. "I was only putting myself in my boy's place, and thinking how he must long for a glimpse of Sunny. Have it your own way, Miss Diana; Grevilie Is almost as much your boy as he is mine, and I know you would not cross him if you could help it." "No, indeed," she replied, very gently; "I think you, and Grevilie, too, may trust me." And then the conversation dropped. CHAPTER X. "Roger, does it not seem strange that Miss Hardwlck never brings her sister to The Holms?" "Well, no, Allie. I am too profound a student of human nature to think any thing strange. You women know how to tyrannize over one another. Revenge is sweet, even to the feminine mind. Poor Miss Anna is expiating the offense of having excited our commiseration. The fiat has gone forth her days at The Holms are numbered." "I took rather u fancy to the poor lit tle thing, and I hoped to have been of some use to her she seems so utterly de void of friends." Alison and Roger were walking down a country road. The evening was sultry, and Roger had invited Ills sister to ac company him in one of their pleasant strolls. There was a moment's silence ntcr Roger's speech, and then he began ngain but this time there was a glimmer of mischief In his eyes. ."Allie, what should you say If I should promise to bring you and Miss Anna to gether in less than half an hour?" "I should say you were a magician," returned Alison, "Nevertheless, the thing shall be done," was his oracular reply, and then he said quickly, "Look at the clouds, Allie; we shall have n thunder storm directly." All son gave a startled glance at the sky; there was no mistaking the gathering tdackncM overhead. "What shall wc do?" she exclaimed, In a disconcerted voice. "1 have my new hat on, and this nice clean cambric, and we have no umbrella, and there Is not a house In sight." "All right," was Roger's cheerful re sponse; "things are just as they should be. Walk as fast as yo:i can ; in less than ten minutes we shall be at the gate of Maplewood. Could anything be more clev erly arranged? Of course we must tnko refuge from the Impending storm. They will be compelled to house us for an hour at least." "Oh, Roger, what n good Idea," ox claimed Alison, laughing. "Please let m make haste, though, or wo shall never reach Maplewood in time." And Alison quickened her walk into a fun.. But the heavy drops pelted on her before she took refute in the portico. Before Roger could lift his hand to the knocker, the door, was flung open, and 'Anna stood on the threshold. "I saw you both running down the road," she exclaimed, eagerly. I knew you would take refuge here from the rain ; there is going to be such a heavy storm. and I wns just beginning to feel fright cned at the thought of being alone in it, but I don't mind a bit now." "Do you mean that Mrs. Hardwlck and your sister are out?" asked Roger, ns he shook Alison's light mantle, which was already wet. "Yes, they are out dining. There is to be a dance afterward, so they will be very late. ' Do you mind my taking you into the morning room? I have some work that I must finish, or Eva will be disap pointed, but I can talk to you all the same. Oh, It Is so nice to see you again,' looking at Alison nffectionately. "Is it not nice to see me, too?" asked Roger, in a comical tone. ''I don't think you ought to leave me out in the cold. Miss Anna." Anna laughed and blushed at this, then she said, very prettily, in her childish way, "Oh, I am glad to see you. too, but I never thought of telling you so. Will you ring, Mr. Roger? and then Morton will bring us some ten. Please take that easy chair by the window. Miss Merle it is Eva's favorite scat, because there is cuch a pretty view of the garden." "No, indeed. I am going to help you." returned Alison, laying her hat aside, and pulling off her long gloves. "Oh. you poor child, what a task !" as she inspected Anna's work. She was trimming an In dinn muslin gown with coffee-colored lace. "Yes, is it not pretty?" returned Anna, innocently. "Eva means to wear it at our garden party on Thursday. You and Mr. Roger are both coming, are you not?" "We are not invited," returned Alison, a little gravely, as she took n thimble from her pocket, and helped herself un asked to a needle nnd thread. "I am go ing on with that flounce," she continued, quietly, "so you have nothing to do but to tnlk to me and Roger." "Oh. how kind you are!" returned Anna, gratefully. "The thunder always makes my head ache a little, nnd I have been working nil the afternoon, and it was so hot: indeed," interrupting herself, "Eva was writing out your notes of in vitation to-day. I think she gave them to Mabel. I am sorry." flushing a little as she spoke, "that you should have them so late, but Eva is always so busy." "So is some one else always busy," observed Roger, with n pitying glance at the girl's tired face. Both he and Alison thought" she looked thinner nnd paler than when they saw her last : her blue eyes looked large and hejnry, nnd the veins of the forehead were marked too clearly ; her fair hair was strained from her face and coiled somewhat untidy, nnd her gray linen dress looked tumbled and far from fresh. "I am nfraid you will have to house us for a good hout or more." Roger obs?rved. "for the weather means mischief, and In this climate it never rnins but it pours, so while Allie does your work you may as well make yourself comfortable. I sup pose you will not mind my going into the library for a book, for I am not much of a band at talk? You may summon me when tea is ready." And Roger marched off. muttering to himself : "Two is company, three is none; she shall not be bothered with making company talk for me, poor little girl !" "How good he is! whispered Anna, almost before the door had closed be hind him; "he thinks I want to talk to you alone, and so I do. Oh. how quick ly you work! your needle seems to fly. My head was aching so with' stooping over the muslin that I could hardly see, but when I told Eva so she said I was always full of fancies, and that I was so dreadfully idle. But I don't think I really am idle, do you?" "No, indeed," returned Alison, with something of Aunt Diana's abruptness; "I am sure you have been working too hard, you look so thin and unsubstantial. Tell me, Anna, why have you never come to see me again, as you promised?" "Eva does not want me to come; nt least, I think so; she always raises diffi culties when I ask to accompany her; and and" her eyes filling with tears "she was so angry that afternoon when you and Mr. Roger were so kind to me; she said I was so forward that people could not help noticing me, and that she was sure Mr. Roger thought so." "Never mind, Anna dear may I call you Anna? and please remember I am only a girl myself," and my name is Alison, and not Miss Merle. Never mind, what your sister says Is not true ; people often say things when they are put out which they do not really mean. No one could think you forward; I nm sure Roger would laugh at such an Idea if I were to tell him." "You must not do that," returned Anna, quietly; "he would be so angry with Eva: they are not good friends, you know. Oh. bow glad I am to tell you this; It takes quite a load off my mind. I was afraid you would think me so ungrateful ufter pressing me so kindly to come; you might havo thought I did not care I cried about it so often." "You must never do that again," re plied Alison, quite pained ut this ; "if yon do not come to The Holms I shall quite understand where the fault lies ; we will not make things worse by fretting over them. We must try and be patient for a little tilings may be better by and by." The girls continued to chat until the tea came In and It was time to summon Roger. He was not sorry to he called. The library was rather a gloomy apart ment this wet evening, as it looked on the darkest part of the shrubbery, the ever- greens coming far tbo close to the win down. Rut, as no one sat in the loom, "this was not considered a grievance, lie j thought the morning room looked snug and cozy when he went back to It. The j muslin dress still reposed on the enter table, but n smaller one wns placed in the hay window, round which the three young people were gathered. Annn quite forgot her headache nnd fear of the thunder ns she performed her simple duties of hostess She looked so pleased when Roger told her that he had never tasted better tea, that he lnii;!i' ingly accused her of never having enter tained compnny before. To his surprise she answered him quite seriously, "Oh, no; I never had a tea .party before. How nice .It 1st Eva has her friends some times, but I do not seem to know any girls." "Or young men," put In Roger mis chievously. He seemed bent on teasing her to-night. "Well, there Is Cousin Anthony, you know," she repli.ed in her usual naive fashion; "he Is n young man. of course; but I don't think he would like to comu to my ten parties. Eva always says that I am such a child that people don't care to tnlk to tne. I am afraid 1 am not very clever." "I nm glad of that," returned Roger, promptly. "I detest people who think themselves clever. You are quite clever enough for Alison nud me. By the bye, Miss Annn, how do you get on with your Latin?" "Oh. pretty well," she answered, with one of her varying blushes, which mide her almost pretty. "I have so little time and you havb not given me a lesson for so long, Mr. Roger." 'The rain Is over now," observed All son, in a regretful voice, "and It is grow ing so dark, Roger, we ought not to stay any longer." "Never mind, I shall sre you on Thurs day," replied Anna, "i am looking for ward to the day so much. 1 have a new dress, too." she continued, ns Roger left the room to find Alison's mantle; "it is not so pretty us Eva's dress such n beau tiful muslin: miue Is only c.eam-colored cJoth." "I am sure you will look very nice, and I shall bring jou some flowers," rturned Alison, kindly, witn a vivid reco notion how well Anno had looked with the knot of roses fastened In her gray dress. Then thy joined Roger in the hall. "Well, Allie," he observed, as they walked briskly down the wet road, "have you had a nice time with your new friend?" "Yes, indeed, Rogpr. I nm so thankful for the rain. I am getting quite fond of Annn. There is so much goodness under that shy, childish manner." "I know you would nppreclate her." he returned, heartily. "Poor little girl ! One is glad to do unvthlng to help her. There is not much a fellow like me can do. ex cept sny a kind word when people snub her. or leave her'to sit nione in the cor ners. That is almost all I have done." "But you tench her Latin, Roger?" "Nonsense!" was the hasty reply. "A pretty sort of teaching. The poor little thing once confided to me her diflicnltlrs. and so whenever an opportunity came I gave her n quarter. of an hour's constru ing. She used to come rather often to The Holms once upon a time. Well. 1 shnll leave her in your hands now. Allie. A girl friend of her own age will be far better for her." "I am sure you have been good to her, Roger, or she would not be so grateful to you. Hut ns uoger oniy sun non sense!" rather impatiently. Alison, wltb her usual tact, changed the subject.. (To bt continued.) FLOATING IN THE AIR. Tho Impression on AxcendliiK In a Ft-cu Ilnllooii. One of tho tlrst questions which I nm usually asked by persons seeking In formation about balloons is, "What la the sensation of going up In a balloon?" writes Captain C. DeK. Chandler, U. S. A. I will anticipate this same inquiry of the readers of this article and state for their Information that in a free balloon I have not noticed any peculiar physical sensation which can be de scribed. It would be like trying to describe standing still as a sensation. The Impression on nscendlng In a free balloon Is more an optical Illusion. The nscent Is so slow and gentle that Jt cannot be felt, and one hits the Impres sion that the balloon Is motionless and the enrtli gradually dropping away. All the noises and shouts of the people be come fainter and die out. As the ultl- tude increases hills and valleys are not apparent, and the earth seems flat, like a beautiful colored map. showing cul tivated Holds, forests, etc. The greater part of the time a bal loon Is moving either up or down, but the motion la not apparent, mid It re quires a statoseope to Indicate whether the balloon Is ascending or descending. If a considerable change of altitude U made In a short time, the difference In air presstiro may be felt on tho ear drums. In descending even quite rni idly I have never hud any sensation of falling.

Br Andrew P. Arder-on, Instructor In CM1 En Kin t'liur, U. a. As.t.tant Enrdnecr, Oluco of luillc Uondn, WnMilmriou Stslo Collfffo. Concrete, while a comparatively new material, has fully demonstrated Its usefulness in n wulo and varied field. In durability for most purposes it stands on n par with the best nnd hard est stone, while for chenpnesa u sur passes almost ttny other form of con struction approaching it In permanency. i The jrent railroads add other largo construction companies hnvo come to fully understand its value, nnd are adopting concrete construction to n surprising extent. Tho farmer tn general has, however, ns yet failed to avail himself of tho advantages which concrete offers. There are u great many constructions about the farm for which concrete is especially fitted, nnd where experience has demonstrated its superiority abovo nnything else when both cheapness and permanency are considered. I'or found ations for fnrm buildings, barn and cel lar doors, walkP, drum tiles, watering troughs, fenco posts and even silos, the uso of concrete Is uo longer an ex periment, but a demonstrated success. , Ono of tho chief reasons why con- ' crctc should bo more generally tidoptcd on the farm is the ease with which it can be handled nnd plnccd by tho farm er himself without the need of sk Died nnd high priced Inbor. Any farmer I who is handy with a saw nnd a hand a can make the forms required for most of the constructions on. the farm, while mixing nnd placing of the concrete can also bo done by tho farmer himself or by the hired man. Slack times of the year can'thus bo util.zcd for improve ments instead of being lost as for merly. I After the general lines of construc tion are determined upon, tho first step is to prepare the form. The purpose of the form is to hold the wet, slushy concrete in placo until it hardens or "sets " All uini-i tuiuo, tut; juiiu to t,iiu mum into which tho wet concrete is tamped nnrl nllnivnd tn linrrlnn Tim tnairln rtf the form therefore must have exactly tho shape and dimensions desired of tho finished product. For ground floors ' and walss no forms are required, only such as will keep tho concrete from spreading beyond the limits. I For wnlks and foundations abovo the ' ground, the form required is a smooth tight board frame oil each side of the desired wall. This board frame or form must be tight enough to keep tho wet, semi-fluid concrete from leaking ,out, and strong enough to prevent spreading while the concrete is being tamped. I The forms may be bu.lt to their full height at once, or a few boards added nt the time ab the work of placing the concrete progresses. Usually it is a good policy to spend extra time nnd care on the forms. A good form in sures a neat, clean looking wall, pro viding a spade is used freely along the boards so as to work tho larger stones back from the surface and kavc a smooth compact face. It a particularly smooth job is desir ed, the forms should be made of dress ed lumber and titled very closely. Shiplap is very good for fornu of this class. If one inch lumber is used for the forms, the studding must not ex ceed two feet apart, nor five feet if two inch lumber is used. If the wall is to be more than four or five feet in height it is well to set tho studs to gcther with "bailing wire" in order to prevent th-dr spreading. When tho forma arc removed, tho wires can bo cut with a pair of nippers so close to the wall as to never show. For ordinary walls of low height and not immediately subject to heavy load ing, the forms may bo safely removed in from two two threo days. In very dry weather the concrete should be sprinkled often enough to keep it moist for at least a week after placing, A light covering of straw, earth or old hurlao will help to retain the moisture and retard evaporation from the con crete. Too much emphasis cannot bo laid on the need of care in selecting the material and properly mixing tho con crete. The cement should bo a. stand ard brand which has demonstrated its value through years of use, which re liable tests show to be perfectly sound, and should be free from lumps. The sand should be fairly coarse, reasonably clean and entirely free from vegetable matter. Tho gravel should bo clean, free from vegetable material and for most fnrm uses the larger pebbles should not exceed one and a half inches in diameter. Or, in absence of suitable gravel, broken stone of a similar Hize may be used. The proportions most generally adapted for -farm purposes are mix tures of one part cement, two parts sand and three parts gravel, called 1-2-3 mixture; or one part cement, two nnd a half parts sand and five parts gravel, called a 1-2K-G mixture; and one part cement, threo parts sand and six parts gravel, or a 1-3-0 mixture. For floors, thin walls, or where water tightness is required, or parts requir inggreat strength, a 1-2-3 or a 1-2 A mixture is preferable For parts re quiring bulk rnthor than strength, n 1-3-6 mixture may be employed, or in some cases oven a 1-4-8 mixture. If tho gravel contams . much sand, tho amount of sard shou'd bo reduced, tho Him About filth erf "Yes, children," said tho nurne.

A few s ft'toa may bo driven on each sldo to keep tho bonrda in place. For proport'onlng the concrcto It Is usually accurate enough to assume thnt n stick of cement hohin ono cubic foot. Thua In making n 1-2-3 mixture, wo would uho ono suck of cement, two cu bic feet of snnd and threo cubic feet of grnvel, or, for four sacks of cttnent wo would ufo eight cubic feet of sund nnd tw"lvi cubic feet of gravel. If tho contents of tho wheelbnrrow use ts known, this can bo used to tna3uro tho proportions. If not, good plan is to make a box 3 to 5 feet K.iuaro and 12 inches deep, uut wunout top or bottom, Thlscnn then bo plnccd wi the platform nnd sand or gravel tn tho proper amount can bo placed In It. SI nply lifting tho box awny will loavo tho snnd or gravel on tno pinttorm readv for mixing. In mixing, tho sand should first bo snend on tho platform to a depth of threo to five Inches. Empty the desir ed number of tracks of cement on top of tho sand and turn dry with n shovel until thoroughly mixed when the whole mass will havo a uniform color. I no required amount of gravel Bhould now be added on top of tho snntt nntt cement, tho wholo turned over onco a day, nnd the turning continue until thn whole mass is thoroughly mixed, and of a rather shiny nniure. Tho ntnount of water needed will depend largely on tho nnturo and dryness of tho sand nnd gravel nnd can bust bo determined by adding the wnter with ti bucket rather slowly to the first bntch until tho prop er consistency has been attained. For most farm work a fairly wet mixture, ono in which tho water will flush to tho surface quite readily on tamping, Is preferred. For making fence posts, drain tile, etc., where specified forms are used, n dr'er mixture ia to be preferred. In general it may bo said that tho dryer the mixturo the moro ramming or tnmping la required. Hut in ns case should tho tamping be neglected. Enough ramming should always bo done to insure that tho mass is us dense as it is poisiblo to make it. Suggestions for Commission. At a meeting of the agricultural faculty of the Oregon Agricultural College on November 30, the request of President' Roosevelt's Country Life Commission for suggestions that might aid the commission in unking its report wns discussed and the fol lowing statement prepared: If federal appropriations arc to be mndc for improving social and economic conditions in rural coin nuiuitics. it is recommended first, that they he mndc to existing hiJi schools and normal schools for the mtrposc of maintaining courses of in struction in agricultural, industrial nnd domestic arts, and including busi ness methods and home sanitation, so that nil pub'ic school teachers may have the tmiuing necessary for teach ing those subjects in the public schools. Second, that in order to secure the full efficiency of the agricultural col leges and experiment stations, the na tional government should co-operate witn the states in agricultural extru sion work, this work to be under the direct supervision of the agrictt'turnl colleges. With an adequate appropri ation a comprehensive system of trav eling agricultural schools, farmers' 'nstitutcs and free circulating libraries could be maintained, and publications tued for free distribution so that all imnortnnt discoveries of the experi ment stntions could be given to every 'artpcr of every state. Black Spots or Pork. During the butchering season of the vcar the experiment station frequent ly receives specimens of pork that present an unmnrkctihlc appearance. The rind or skin, taken from the b dominal rcdon and inside of the legs, is found to be dotted with black wart 'ike growths of vnrious sizes ranging rom thnt of a pin-hend to a hazclnjt Many of these spots in the cnr.y stages contain a small amount of pus, nd by careful examination a sninll mite will be found buried deeply in the skin. The mite causing these pustules and subscouent black spots is known ns Demodcx fulliculorttm var suis, a very large name for stt;ji a small mite that mav be seen only by the aid of a nifenifving glass. ' Just when the mite attacks the hog is not well known, and as it burrows ''ccolv into the sklii. treatment or the use of insecticides is of little value; besides there is no indication of its orcscncc until the tinic of butchering, when the damage is already done. These blackened spots, although unsightly, do not injure the meat for food, and they may be completely re moved with the skin, 12. F, Pcrnot, O'-wn Agricultural College, Cor vallis. Q.
