O ships that In the darkness roam, Sweet sing the harbor bells of Home ; Though far the shore the voyage long, The dark will drift to morning song; The bells sing o'er the tossing bars- The sails bend sure beneath the stars; Still still the distant shore we sight And gain the light the harbor light 1 BLOOD nTOT X CT-f-" - " " 'll AND SYSTEM DIS ORDERED 1 Margaret's Adventure.

But on the third ride, the monotony was unpleasantly broken by a large puncture ln the back tire; ten miles from home, In a perfectly unknown road, not a soul in sight, and with the certain knowledge that she had left the repairing outflt at home ! There was nothing to do but to plod wearily on till she came to somebody or something, and she had tramped at least two miles of the dusty road be fore help came in sight I It was not, a very promising looking place. A small one-storied wooden building, with a wheel hung over the door and a placard over the gate: "Bi cycle repairs promptly executed." I The man went on wli his task, with out raising his head.' Margaret was piqued to notice that he was much less anxious to talk to her than she to talk to him. "Could you tell me any pretty rides about' here?" she said desperate ly; "I've nothing to do but ride and I am so tired of all these horrid bleak roads. I should like a pretty ride, Just for once." He stopped for a minute and thought f "There Is a little old Tillage about ten miles from the crossroads," he said, "which might be called Interesting and, with a stretch of Imagination, even i pretty. Some big man, who was a friend of Hampden's, was burled there, I believe, and there Is an old church with a square tower." "Which Is the best way to get to it?" she asked; "and what la the name of itr "It Is called Merfleet, but I hardly ' know bow to explain the way. Perhaps I could show yon on the map." Ha want across the room, took hla tourists' map from a shelf of books In the corner, and gave it to her. She spread it open on her knee, fore seeing' that be would be obliged to kneel beside her to explain. Then the young man saw that she Intended to condescend to friendliness, and he told himself that there was no reason for him to remember that be was a young man ln a shop and that the situation was certainly a pleasant one for him. In vain he pointed out the right way, over and over again ahe only shook her head sadly. "It's no use," she sighed. "I am afraid you will think me terribly stu pid, but I never could understand ei ther maps or railway guides. I am afraid I shall have to give It up." Then the bicycle mender looked up. Maragaret smiled. "I don't care If I am forward," she said to herself. "Somebody must Improve our acquaint ance and he certainly won't" But at her smile be grew suddenly bolder. "Do yon alwaya ride alone?" he asked. Margaret sighed. "I hare no one else to ride with." She hated herself for saying It and waited for his response, knowing that If It was what she feared she had only herself to blame, and yet half hoping that her fears would be Justified. There was only one thing for him to say, and be said it almost certain of a rebuff, yet feeling that If slie gave It she had certainly not played fair. "I wish you would let me show you the way," he said, and Margaret gasp ed. She turned over the leaves of Omar's Khayyam nervously, and for a minute she did not answer. The book opened at the flyleaf, and half uncon sciously she read the name of the own er, Miles Leighton, E. Coll. Magd. Ah, she had known all the time that he was a gentleman. Why, her brother Dick was at Magdalen; most likely he had known him It was as good as an In troduction. She would go. What did It matter about the bicycle business? No doubt he had the very best reasons for keeping a shop. The young man was watching her anxiously waiting for the Indignant refusal which must come. "It Is very kind of you," she said sweetly. "I shall like to very much. It will be a pleasant change to have a companion." The bicycle man's face was burning by this time, and when she spoke he could hardly believe his hot ears. Then, somehow, - the face of the situation changed. They forgot the bicycles, and everything else they did not wish to re member, and talked of the many things they had ln common he as an Oxford man, she as a Girton girl. He knew her brother quite well, he said, and after they had arranged the details of their ride to Merfleet Mar garet went home, her mind in a whirl. "I ought to be much more ashamed of myself than I am," she said wonder- ingly. "I must really be a much less proper person than I thought At any rate, whatever else I may be, I shan't be bored any more." The ride to Merfleet seemed very short On the return Journey the bi cycles, as If of their own accord, went more and more slowly. Yet the way seemed Bborter than before. The bicycle man had remembered an other pretty village. Why should they not ride over to see It some day say, to-morrow? Why not, Indeed. They did. A deeply incompetent young man was left In charge of the shop, whose owner thus lost many cus tomers and some sixpences. But, as he said, one can earn money all the year around and, If one can't earn It, one can always do without It But there are some things one cannot possibly do without When you have ridden for two whole afternoons with a young man, why should you not ride for" a third? And a fourth and a fifth? During the rest of Margaret's stay the two rode together every day. And now the last day bad come, and they were resting by the roadside, looking out through the gap ln the hedge at the hideous country. "It doesn't seem so hideous now," she said. "I suppose one has got used to it" . - He was silent Margaret felt In a sudden flash of Illumination, that he was silent because for him, as for her, the world bad changed so ' much In these two weeks. And now she was going away. And this, the pleasantest companionship her life had ever known, was to end here. He sat beside her, silent pulling dusty leaves from the hedge and twisting them In his hands. Margaret knew that he would not speak. . How could he? A man who Magdalen notwith standing kept a bicycle shop. And If she lost him now, be might see someone else she might lose him forever. "I'm going away to-morrow," she said abruptly, and her voice was hard and cold. "We've had some nice rides, haven't we? But lt'a all over and, anyway, I think the weather's going. Those clouds look Ilka rain." "Going away?" ha said still not looking at her. Ha realised now, aa he had not done before, what theae two weeks bad been to him, and be looked at a blank future. What would be left when Margaret went away?" "Yes," she weut on, "I go to-morrow; and my aunt says I've neglected her so dreadfully ttat she'll never ask me to stay again. We've had some nice times I am sorry this Is the last" Still he did not answer. Oh, how stupid he was I If only she had been ln his place ; how well she would have known what to say 1 She let her band fall on the grassy bank beside her. He looked at the hand, but he did not touch It "It's getting late," he said, awkward ly. "We ought to be going home." She did not move, however. He drew a deep breath. Her heart was beating heavily and her hands trembled. She felt that ahe held ln them her life's happiness. "Bide on," she said, "It's not far now. I'll come on alone. I shall have to get used to being alone now. So will you." She looked up at him. "Don't" he said, "It's not fair. What shall I do when you are gone?" "You'll work at your business. "Hang my business," he said. And then he looked at her, and the last cob web of doubt floated away from Mar garet He did love her it was only the horrid business that stood ln the way. She would risk everything. She did. "You think I'm a person of Inde pendent means," she said, looking down and speaking very fast "But I'm not There wasn't any nice, easy proteKuiou, open to me when I came down from college so I took to trade like you, I'm a dressmaker." "Why do you tell me this?" 1 "Because It's true, of course," she said Impatiently. "Oh, don't be so stupid." And then she did what she bad bet ter have done at the beginning of the conversation. She began to cry In real earnest with her face hidden ln her bands. And then even Miles Leighton was at last enlightened. "Yon don't mean to say that yon care!" he said, catching at her hands and trying to see her face. "I don't mean to say an thing," she said, "and neither, It appears, do you I" Manchester Chronicle. CLIMB ESS NEED NEW FIELDS. Peaks of Alpa Are Now Ifearlr All Accessible by Rail. It Is probable that ln the course of a few years ambitious mountain climbers will be compelled to transfer the scene of their efforts to the mountains ot North and South America, for the peaks of the Alps are nearly all acces sible by rail at the present time and the engineers have designs on those which are yet untouched by ties and tracks. Of course, the presence of the rail road does not Interfere with those who desire to climb to the top of a moun tain, but the experience Is robbed of its charm when one is compelled to cross and recross railroad tracks con stantly and the trip is robbed of the element of danger, excitement and thrill by the knowledge that the ama teur climber may stop and wait for a car when he has tired of the climb. The latest engineering scheme of this kind Is that which Is proposed to the top of the Matterhorn. It was thought because of Its precipitous slopes and Jagged structure that this peak would bo free from rails for all time, but two engineers have made application to build a line to Its top. The view from the top of this mountain Is so grand that there Is a constant stream of vis itors during the season notwithstand ing the difficulties and the cost of the climb.' The only opposition which has devel oped to the scheme Is from the Alpin ists who reap quite a harvest acting as ambitious . mountain climbers' guides for tourists, but this Is hardly of sufficient Importance to prevail In the face of the pressure which is be ing brought to bear by the projectors. The line will extend from Zermatt to the top of the Matterhorn and the company will erect all the necessary buildings for- the accommodation of guests at the summit It will be oper ated electrically and will cost $2,000, 000. Four years' time will be re quired m its construction. The trip now requires at least twenty-four hours and costs about $40 fof guides and other expenses. With the new rnllroad In operation the time of the trip will be reduced to two hours and will cost $10. A Gnesa at Long; Raigo.
