From the wood is sued the murmur of insects und the ripple of a brook, a lulling sound of which she was conscious, as ono W'ho listens to sing- iug is conscious of an unobtrusive accom paniment. But of a sudden her thoughts leaped from the page to herself—her phys ical self, now revealed as a shrine most precious, most sacred.

She flung her heavy vol ume full in the wretch's faco and then sped through the car to the ground and alcng the road. The way was winding, threading the wood with the eccentricity of embroidery.

Was the mau daft or simply aud naturally insolent? Win nie’s head was proud indeed.

Nor did she emerge therefrom until the guest aroused with a start and forthwith talked vociferously, as if continuing an animated couversu tion. Then she sprang to the old lady’s side aud attended upon her with eurpris ing gentleness. Mrs. Nannies, however, did not make such responses as this con sideratiun merited. She seemed preoccu pied. Her gaze was fixed—fixed with a glare on the youug girl’s hand. Finally she spoke, and her voice might Lave em bellished any one of the fates. “Where did yon get my sou’s ring?” she asked. “ Please, ma'am, he left It with me— that is, I borrowed it, just to look at, you know,” stammered tho discomfited Win nie as she incontinently retreated into bet corne" How her cheeks burned, and how her heart thumped, even as it had during that terrible racel She felt as if every eye rested on her with suspicion.

If this brown, subdued, demure young man was the hero of her dreams, who had diverted every impulse of her soul during the past mouth, then ho was uo longer brown aud subdued and demure, but altogether glorious aud worshipful. And what, a miserable little fool she bad been not to perceive it I Granted that she was near sighted, a blind person of any dis cernment must have recognized at once bis grand personality.

Ambrose Neames flushed aud flamed with passion. No one surely could deem him a brown, subdued aud demure young man, aud least of all could Winnie. He seemed a god manifesting his divinity. “I would rather have died than have had you do that,” ba cried. “I am the one to worship—to worship you forever.

Nowhere do we need more change than xu our diet. Tbe law that makes boiled truttou days and rice pudding days of tbu domestic calendar is the worst of laws. Because it is easier for the cook to know what to expect home from the market each morning is no reasonable excuse for cling ing to a certain routine iu food with the regularity of a state’s prison or an alms house A united family is more to be re garded than one cook. Monotony is dry rust upon interest in any branch of the home, whether it is a matter of furnish ing, of diet er of toilet. If interest is gone in tbe menu aud one eats merely to satis fy hunger, loss of appetite and dyspepsia come to the fore. Nutritious food, weli cooked food and a variety in food are three necessary adjuncts to gastronomic comfort. By variety is not meant here all the products of a large market at every meal. The present elegant simplicity that has weeded out the old tangled mass of side dishes from the national boHrd is certain ly more dainty and mure apprizing than our former profusion. The question is merely one of change. If we breakfast upon croquettes today, the chief piece da resistance tomorrow at the morning meal should be as far as possible removed from meat balls. Next to daintiness in serving, mystory is perhaps tbe most iinr<ortant factor in forciug an appetite. The hungry mau who comes from business with his stom ach mortgaged to fricasseed chicken ou Monday night, roast beef on Tuesday night, und choi« un Wednesday night eats his dinner merely because he is a hungry man, but he of tbe fickle appetite is lured ever hopefully to tbe dining room of ths wise housewife who never publishes her bill of fare in advance. Tbe not knowing what is coming and an element of surprise in what does come, if tbe food Is In itself desirable, will do more than enything else can toward putting new life iuto a listless palate. Don’t sen e too many sorts of things at one time, as u superabundance always tends to nausea aud a repudiation of the whole, but avoid as well that )>opular pit fall, meagerness. And strive to find new ways—good new ways—especially of cook ing meat and of making desserts. Mauy otherwise well regulated households vi brate between eight or ten meat recipes amt perhaps a dozen of desserts, whereas both these num Iters could easily l<e multi plied by 100 toothsome changes. If house keepers were as careful to exchange the specialties of their several cooks as they are to pass about their misdemeanors, there would not be so many hungry men stalking our streets—starved not from want, but from monotony; A laudable zeal iu the gastronomic art should not, however, lead the inexperi enced housekeeper too far afield. A youug wife once tried a newspaper recipe that told her to use a “ttpful of baking powder and a teaspoouful of sugar instead of the re verse. Sheubeyedfaithfully, but someway her husband didn’t like the cake. If one is not uatural cook enough to tell front the relative proportions given something about how a mixture will turn out, it is best to resort only to such dishes as have been stamped with reliable approval.
