    Aunt Diana i
The Sunshine
of the Family
CHAPTER XIV.
Mlsslo's . feelings were decidedly mixed
when Roger related at the breakfast table
tho whole stfiry of the previous rdght.
Alison was a llttlo surprised by the
attention she received. Her pale cheeks
and heavy eyes secured a good deal of
petting. Mr. Merle questioned her anx
iously whether she had caught cold ; Miss
Leigh fairly overflowed with tender in
quiries; Hoger waited on her ecalously,
and Itudcl sat staring at her, to the ob
vious neglect of his breakfast. Mlssie
shrugged her shoulders a little over the
whole affair. Alison had done very little
after all, but they wcro nil making such.
n fuss ovor it. She was doubly vexed
when Miss Hnrdwiek came in, full of en
thusiasm for that dear, clever Alison. She
had met Uogcr, nnd he had stopped and
given her nnd Anna a full account. Mls
. sie had to listen to more eulogiums,
i though Alison modestly disclaimed all
praise. Miss Hardwick quite frightened
her when she assured her the wholo thing
would be soon nil over the town.
"lou will be n nine days' wonder, my
dear," she said, graciously. "People will
staro at you when you walk through the
streets. Fancy locking the wretch in!
It was quite horrible and romantic I
must run home nnd tell mamma and An
thony all about it."
All this was rather a trial to Alison.
Perhaps the greatest pleasure the day
afforded was when Uogcr showed her a
letter he had written to Aunt Diana,
v "Oh, you foolish boy," she said, coloring
., with gratification as she read the glow-
ing sentences, written straight from Ito
. ger's warm heart. But the tears were
very uear the surface too. There was a
little space left, nnd she wrote hurriedly
ncross it, when Uogcr had left the room
a moment: "Don't believe nil Hoger
says, dear Aunt Di. I never felt more'
frightened in my life; heroines are not
made of such cowardly stuff; they do not
act in n panic. They all make a great
deal too much of it."
Alison would have been quite happy
during the next few days except for the
depressing effect of Missie's ill-humor.
Missie was plainly suffering from a bad
attack of jealousy. Missie sought con
solation in Eva's flatteries. Her visits
to Maplewood were now of daily occur
rence. Alison once ventured to remon
strate. "I do not think papa would be quite
pleased, Mabel, if he knew you were so
much in Captain Harper's company," she
aid. very gently.
"Captain Harper, Indeed!" Tetnrned
Missie, haughtily. "Xou need not trouble
yourself, Alison. My visits are not to
him."
"No, dear, of course not," replied All
ison, in a pleading tone. "But, nil the
same, you are going every day to Maple
wood, and tha throws you necessarily
Into his company. Miss Hardwick can
not well banish her cousin from the
room ; and, Mabel, I do feel that it is not
quite honorable to papa. He trusts us to
carry out his expressed wishes, and in
this you are setting. them aside."
"I wish you would mind your own busi
ness. Alison," she said, nngrily. "You
Vhave no right to lecture me because you
-' are the eldest. Eva says I am quite justi
fied in asserting myself. I hope I know
" my duty without your always pointing
it out to me, and you may leave papa to
me. We have always understood each
other perfectly and there is never any
thing wrong between us unless you choose
to go and tell tales."
"Mabel how can you be so disagree
able?" began Alison, hotly. But she
cooled down on remembering Aunt Diana's
advice "Never get warm over an argu
ment, Allie. Whra you begin to feel angry
It is time to hold your tongue." And Ali
son held hers.
She would have been a little comforted
if she had known how ill at ease Missie
really was. Her high complexion and
cross speech only proved that the arrow
had gone home. She knew In her secreet
heart that she was behaving dishonor
ably. Her father trusted her. and she
was betraying bis trust. The very next
day she had planned to join Eva and her
cousin in a pleasure excursion, though
she knew it wns an act of tacit disobedi
ence, but self-will only gains strength by
indulgence.
. Alison's vague "uneasiness that led to
her speaking was changed into positive
alarm when Hoger came into her room
that night. He was in evening dress,
having just returned from an early par
ty. Alison was waiting up for bira. She
had put off her dress, changing It for a
dainty pink dressing gown. She looked
up brightly at him as he entered.
"Allie," he said, sitting down by her,
'T am so bothered alwut something I
have heard to-night. Did you know that
Mabel was going down to Durbans with
Miss nardwick and Captain Harper to
morrow V"
"Why, no i" she said, starting a little.
"What place did you say, "dear?"
"Durbans. It Is about twenty miles
from here. There are woods there where
people go for picnics. I meant to hove
tnke.n you and Mabel one day, only we
should have gone by train. Miss Anna
was at the Merediths', and she told me
all about it quite Innocently. It seems
that Captain Harper has sent for his dog
cart and he means to drive them over.
They are to have dinner nnd tea at the
Castle Inn ; so they mean to be away the
. whole day."
"Oh, Hoger J what shall we do?" ex
claimed Alison, "If papa were only here
I would go to him at once. Mabel has
no right to deceive him in this way, and
I should certainly get him to put a stop
to it at once, but now he" will not be home
until to-morrow."
"He may possibly coma by an earlier
train, he told me so as we-walked to the
station. It will depend on Ifqjv long busi
ness will detain him. Of course1 we should
tell him, AHIo: the thing Is beyond u
Joke. Fancy that fellow having the au
dacity to propose such a thing. I wish I.
Anew what I could do about It, Allie,'
but father's absence obllze. me to bsvjn.
the omce. I must bo In the yard early,
too, I shall not even be ablo to speak
to Mlsnle."
"I Will tell her what you wiy, nnd
then, of course, she will bo obliged to gtvo
It up," returned Alison, hot relishing her
task nt all, but counting, nevertheless, on
an easy victory. Mlsslo had put herself
so completely In the wrong that no choice
but submission was left to her. Hoger,
who knew Missie perfectly, was not so
sanguine.
"Tell her that If she goes I shall ccr
talnly Inform father, nnd then he- will
put n stop to her visits to Maplewood,
and toll her, too, that I nm porf ectly
dlsguststl nt her conduct, I am afraid
you must do It, Allie."
"Very well," sho sighed. But she loy
awake a long time revolving what words
she would use.
Alison awoke with a strango opprcs
slon upon her a sense of difficulty, that
made tho daylight seem lofs bright. She
became nervously conscious that she might
fall. What If her severity were of no
avail, and Mlsslo should persist In going?
She wns a little later than usual In going
down. Rotrer had already had his break'
fast and had gone to the mill, nnd tho
meal was half over before she suggested
that Popple should knock at Mabel's door.
"Oh, I forgot," returned Popple, In a
stricken voice, laying down her slico of
bread and jnra; "Missie came into my
room before I wns dressed, and told me
to tell you she would not want any
breakfast she wns going to have it at
Maplewood. She looked so smart, Alison,
In her new blue dress. It wns rather
funny of her to put It on for breakfast."
"Miss Leigh, will you cotno Into the
school room n moment, If you have fin
ished?" said Alison, quietly; but the gov
erness noticed that she looked rather pale,
nnd rose at once, but she was eveu more
shocked than Alison when she heard the
whole story.
"My dear, your papa will never for
give us if we do not prevent It," she said,
very solemnly. "ou none of you know
how particular he Is; nnd this will seem
dreadful to him. You must go to Mnple
wood yourself, Alison,- nnd speak to Mrs.
Hardwick. She is the only one who can
do anything. Anna can go In Mabel's
place, but you must insist on briuging
Mabel home. I will not answer for the
consequences if this affair comes to your
father's cars," continued the governess,
moved to tears at this fresh instance ot
Missie's self-will.
Alison thought this such good advice
tbnt she put on her hot at once nnd
walked over to Maplewood. It was not a
pleasant errand, she felt, and she hardly
knew what she would say to Mrs. Hard-,
wick. She only knew she would refuse
to return without Missie, even if she had
to brave the obnoxious Captain Harper
himself. But her fnce fell when she en
tered the morning room and found Mrs.
Hardwick and Anna alone: the others
had just driven from the door. Seeing
that her visit was useless Alison returned
home. Hoger met her at the gate with
the news that Mr. Merle had returned.
"1 have not seen him yet, Allie; I have
only just come across from the mill," he
continued. "Would you like me to tell
him. dear, or do you think you can' do It
better?"
"We will go together," returned Ali
son, uneasily. "I am so afraid that he
will put himself out, nnd then you will
know what to say," And Roger acquiesc
ed. They found Mr. Merle In his study,
looking somewhat fagged and weary, but
he held out his hand with a smile, as
though he were pleased to see them after
his brief absence:
"Where is Pussie?" he asked; "she is
generally the first to welcome me." And
he looked round ns thongh he were disap
pointed. "Dear papa,' returned Alison, bravely,
"I am afraid you will be vexed about
something. We have none of us seen
Mabel this morning; she breakfasted at
Maplewood. Roger met Anna at the
Meredith's last night, and she tdld him
that Mabel had promised to join Eva and
her cousin in an excursion to Durbnps.
I went over to. speak to Mrs. Hardwick
and bring Mabel back, but they had al
ready started."
"What!' thundered Mr. Merle, and the
blackness of his brow was dreadful to
Alison, "do you dare to tell me that Ma
bel has gone over to Durbans In that
man's company, when I forbade any In
tercourse with him?
"Captain Harper Is driving. them in his
dog-cart," rpjoined Roger, coming to his
sister's relief. "It seems n very silly af
fair, and I begged her to stop it ; it is no
fault of hers or of mine, father, Missie
slipped out of the bouse while they were
at breakfast, and though Alison started
off to Maplewood as soon as she could
she was just too late."
"No, It Is not your fault," returned
Mr. Merle, gloomily. "Mabel must bear
the brunt of her own disobedience. Miss
Hardwick shall never enter this bouse
again."
"Would you likex me to take an early
afternoon train to Durbans?" Interrupt
ed Roger, who had already conceived thin
plan, "and when I could join them; there
Is a vacant seat In the dog cart."
"Look out a train in the time table,"
he said, suddenly ; "I will go myself, Hog.
er. Mabel shall not return in the dog
cart; I shall bring her back by train,"
CHAPTER XV.
Alison passed an anxious nnd solitary
afternoon, and as she sat alone at her
needle work she could not divest her mind
of all sorts of gloomy anticipations. She
know her father to be a man of strong
passions; she dreaded the effects of his
displeasure on Mabel. Ills severity would
bo tempered with justice, but still the
weight of his anger would be crushing.
Alison's tender heart was full of com
punction and pity for poor Missie.
Toward evening she seated herself un
der the lime trees within view of the
gate, Popple had come home from her
walk, and was playing about the lawn.
Now and then Popple claimed her atten
tion. The time passed unheeded, and she
woke np with a start to the conviction
that it was nearly eight, and the early
autumn twilight was creeping over the
garden.
So late, and they had not 'arrived, nnd
what could have become of Roger? She
called to Popple hurriedly to run into
the ' house, as it was bedtime and her
Buppervwos waiting in the school room,
and (he llttlo girl had hardly left her
bd'fore the latch of the gate was raited,
and In another moment Roger cams rap
Idly townrd her,
He looked heated, he though he had
been walking fast, but it was" a white
heat, nnd It struck Alison suddenly that
ho was ill, or that ho had hoard some
thing. "Don't bo frightened, Allie," ho said.
In a quick, nervous voice, that certainly
did not reassure her, neither did tho
touch of his cold, damp hand. "I have
come first to prepare you ; bo ns brave
ns you can, for your help Is wanted."
"Something dreadful has happened.
Oh. Roger, be quick."
"I have no time to tell you much," ho
roturned, still more hurriedly, "They
camo back by train oh, why did ho not
send mo? there wns an accident. I was
down at the station and unw them come
!n. They nre both hurt; at least, I nm
afraid Mlsslo is, only she will not say so,
but father Is the worst."
"Oh, Roger!" nnd Alison's figure sway
ed for a ' moment on his arm until he
made her sit down, for the sudden shock
had turned her lips white. She could
not say more nt that moment.
"Wo do not know yet," he half whls
percd; "there are two doctors with him,
and they nre bringing him home. Ho
had a blow, and- was Insensible, but they
can not tell yet: there Is no wound
There. I hear them coming, Allie; pull
ourselves together: we must not think of
anything but him."
"No. no," nnd she gave a quick gulp,
nnd the color enme back to her lips. The
sparrows were twittering sleepily In the
Icy. "And one of them shall not fall
on the ground without your Father,"
seemed to come Into her mind, like the
sudden flash of a sunbeam out of a pass
ing cloud. He wns in the Divine hnnds;
she must remember tbnt. As Roger went
down to open the gates she compelled
herself to return to the house.
"Sarah, there has been an accident,"
she heard herself say, only her voice did
not seem to belone to her. "Send hllzn
to the school room. to keep Miss Popplo
out of the way, nnd you nnd Nnnny be
In readiness for what Is wanted. Hot
water- I suppose they will want that,
nnd I don't know what besides." And
here her voice suddenly 'failed, for wheels
were evidently coming up the graveled
sweep. The next few minutes were sim
ply horrible to Alison. The two doctors
and Roger, and some man from the rail
way, were all helping in removing her
father's Inanimate figure from" the vehicle.
Alison recognized the family practitioner,
Dr. Greenwood, but the other wns a
stranger. There wns nothing to do; her
father's room was In readiness, nnd Roger
was there to show them the way. She
could only lean against the wall ns they
passed with n fleeting consciousness that
her father's eyes were still closed, and
rhnt there was something terrible In the
inert, heavy droop of the limbs. "Very
gently," she heard Dr. Greenwood say.
"Yes. I know the room ; that is the door,
Cameron." And then It closed after them
and she felt some one grip her arm.
"Heln me upstairs, Alison," said Ml:
sle, hoarsely. She had crept out of the
fly unaided, and now stood by Alison's
side in the dark hall. Alison had almost
fonrottcn her in that moment's agony:
but when Rogenhad said surely she wns
not much hurt, yet there she wan clinging
to her sister with a white, stony fnce.
"Lean on me. dear!" exclaimed Alison.
passing her arm tenderly round her; but
to her alarm Missie uttered a sharp cry
of pain.
"No. don t touch me, not mat sme; i
will hold vour arm. I want to be in ray
own room if I can only get there." And
leaning heavily on Alinon's shoulder, sho
tolled slowlv un the staircase, her fnlnt-
ness and difficulty evidently increasing nt
every step, but her strong will support
ing her until they reached the threshold,
and then site suddenly tottered, and if
Alison hod not caught her in her arms,
she would have fallen. Alison dared not
call loudly for assistance, for they were
close to her father's room; but he wns
young nnd strong, nnd she just managed
to drag Missie to n cliair aou summon
one of the frightened servants, when
Missie revived.
"I nm so bruised all over, she said,
with a sort of sob. "I did not want them
to know: they bad to look after papa;
but I am afraid my arm is broken."

Live Slock nnd l-'erlllltr.
As a rule, the best farming Is done
where some form of live stock grow
ing nnd feeding Ib being practiced;
however, It Is not correct to say that
fertility can not he maintained without
live stock. Tho matter of maintaining
soli fertility by tho use of legume crops,
aided by mineral fertilizers used to in
crease the growth of these crops, is
possible, although as a general propo
sition It Is not profitable.
It Is not the fertility alone which
live stock brings to the farm, but the
organic matter which their presence
brings to the soil. In addition to the
humus and plant food contained in
stable manure thero aro present cer
tain bacteria that assist In the work of
making the plant food contained In tho
manure avallablo to the growing plants.
fter completing their work of mak
ing the plant food In the manure avall
ablo to the plants, they seize and con
tinue their work of nitrification as long
us conditions are favorable.
This explains why a small applica
tion of manure to certain soils will
produce results far beyond the actual
fertilizing value of the manure that Is
used. Another point In favor of live
stock growing and feeding Is the fact
that all rational plans of maintaining
soil fertility depend upon growing
crops in ttio rotation that nre adapted
for animal feeding.
There are many live stock growers
and feeders who aro not keeping the
productive qualities of their soils with
all of the manuro they aro making, us
wen as tne crop growers. By proper
cultivation and enro a small amount pf
manure goes u long ways. Agricultural

"There Is no rest Tor the wicked,"

There are so maty things which tho

which arc both profitable nnd pleasnnt
that any farmer, whuther owner or ten

and houses for the chicks. See that
the pig houses are In good shape for
the coming litters and fix up the box
stalls for the curly cows or innre, and

Another very important thing Is to
