The aubtlo difference be tween requesting and ordering the , anme thing waa quite lout on htm. lie knew that ho loved tbe beautiful, stormy girl before him, but aoniethlng la bla English blood made bint feci that If be camo to ber point of view be would belittle himself. So be bad merely turned bla bnck on bis wife, saying In bla Oxford drawl: .. "I'm uro I don't care to discuss tbe matter further." Roso hud stared at him In utter amusement as ho nindo the preparations for the day's hunt. Never In all ber spoiled young life bad sho been so outraged and Ignored. Without n word abe pulled her soft cap down over ber cars, turned up the collar of ber great whtto sweater, slipped ber moccaslned feet ' under the thongs of ber snow- shoes and nuulo off to the south through the clear morning nlr. "I am going back to Westhnven," she bad said to herself. "I cau stop at Le vant's lumber camp for supper, and from there take the main road and reach Woathnven by midnight. I've not been alone In the woods nt night, but I guess I won't bo nfrald." So nil the bright winter day she had kept her course, her anger and resent ment Increasing im she drew further from tho huutlug lodge. "Why did I over unrest, this bunting trip?" she thought bitterly. "I wish we were back In Londmi! Rut-thls was bound to come nliybow, ho perhaps It Is as well to have' thl:i;;s end bore ns there. For I Will n-it gs back b him and his domineering." Tho stillness gradually grew oppress ive, v As the shadows In the '.ltine darkened and closed nearer, there nt00 through Hose's anger the ivnKu.'htumoss that she bad had i) luncheon niU tint tbero was no hope of .her reaching Le vant's before darkness set hi. Rho half paused. , , "Ooodnessl" she thought, s "What shall I do If It gets diik before I reach rVBut'i? I bad" forgotton that possi bility. And when I got there what ex cuse shall ( make for Mug there T Twlllifht was deepening, coming- with no gorgeousmms of sunset or after glow, for the overhanging lioitgbs, with their snowy covering, were all but On penetrable. Utile by little tbe tree trunks turned from greeii and brown to black. Littlo by little the' snow took a bluish hue that darkened Into the purple of tlio drooping boughs, end tbe air grow raw and sharp with a lit tie ulght breeze that made ltose ihlvet as tho glow of heavy exercise depart ed with bor first weurlness. Her course was now more difficult As darkness seemed assured she con I til ut ly stumbled, but caught herself each tlmo. Hut tho straining told on tbe thonga of ber suowsboes. Bud douly, she could ; not tell bow, tbe fastening on ono shoe gave way, and abo was thrown violently forward. Had tbe full taken place lit tho soft enow Hose would huve been unbanned, but she had Just arrived at the brow of a slight slope almost wind swept of snow. Aa the girl scrambled to bor feet tier left Arm dangled uselessly at ber side. With a little moan she slip ped ber other foot from Its hiiowsIioo, then stood for a moment, puln and tor ror of tho darkness rendering ber weak Slid helpless. Then her courage returned to bor. "Nonsense!" she thought. "I've been In the wiMsls alone before. I mustu't got frightened even If It Is dark and I don't know where I am. . Kho took from tint pocket of bor skirt a tiny oilskin packet. John, the guide, allowed no one In the lodge to be with out matches. "I'll light a fire," she said, "and camp right bore for tho night." J)7.jty , with puln nud hunger, the painfully gathered together somo dead branches and, kindling a cheerful blaze, aut down before It Tbe puln In her arm was very groat, and she rolled buck ber sleeve and piled soft haudfuls of snow on the flesh. Tbe whlsjicrlng of tbe nlgbt through tbe pine seemed very sod and lonely to Rose, It was only by watching tbe beauty of tho scarlet (Ire glow on snow and sweeping branches and murmur Ing over ami over to herself that she was not afraid that the girl kept ber self from scresmlng with terror. Then from out the darkness behind ber came the soft fluff fluff of hurrying snowshoes, nud Hugh, hot and breath loss, stood tsifore her. "Itosor he cried. "Rose, I thought 1 hsd lost you!" Roue looked up at blin In amaze ment. "How did you find me, IIughT "Find you! Why, I've been follow Ing you ever since you left tbe lodge. Rut Just at dusk my snowshoe broke, and before I could patch it up you were out of fight." Rose put another handful of snow on ber arm. Hugh throw himself down beside her. "Oh. Rose," ho cried, "what have you done to yourself V Rose looked tip at him. Ruddeoly ahe realised how she bad been belit tling a great thing In satisfying ber foolish pride. Suddenly she saw that this was Itest of all; not that she keep her girlish vanities, but that their love held true no matter who ordered or who obeyed Suddenly she felt aa If abe wanted things as they bad been at any cost. "Hugh," she snld, "I don't rolnd. Or. der me about all yon want to; only take care of me and don't let me go away again." Again the little bewildered look came Into Hugh's face as be gathered her close. "I don't wont to order you, Rosle," be said. "I was stubborn, and yon know what Is for your own best good nnyhow. All I want Is you, and for the rest yon may do aa you please.H KaowU tho Birds. How grand Is the hawk or tbe eagle sailing far away In tbe blue sky! And bow beautiful are song birds, each in Its favorite position to sing, tlio song sparrow with bead thrown back, tbe bobolink sailing down to tbe grass with raised wings! Thoso who have spent much time In watching birds In tbe field know bow differently tbe various birds perch, fly, run, climb or feed. Tbe warblers catch flies, but they do not do It In such nn Interesting way na do the true fly catchers. We como to know a bird by the flight or walk just as we know other friends, by their grilt or even by tbe sound of their tread. In flight the Wings of many different birds make peculiar sounds whereby wo may know tho birds even if they themselves are out of sight. It Is uot at all necessary to get close enough to a bird to see Its exact cijjor or tlio shape of Us bill and feet, for Us move ments mid outlines can be seen at a greater distance.. Anil so we may know the bird even though It should Uy away, os birds often do ns soon as we try to stiilk them for a nearer view. St. Nicholas. , . Hot Enough Halt. .
