The result is that youi poor little finger may get burnt, at the pie is &till being cooked." The man smiled maliciously al his feeble witticism, and Brett in- stantly took hia measure an a mem- bur of the gang of flaah thieve; which infest Paris. He knew tliai such a ruffian was both pitiless and cowardly. Whatever the outcome of the situation which faced him, he would not stoop to conciliatory me- thods with this despicable rascal. "I suppose," he said, "that th<' only part of the affair which con cerns you is the robbery." "Well, and what if it ial" "I can only say that your politi cal friends will be well advised U keep a close eye on you,, for yov would rob them just as soon as thr persona against whom they have employed you." The little thief laughed cynically "You are right, mon vieux, I woiilii be delighted to have the chance. But this time it is impossible. The stones are too big. Thev are worth â€" jx)uf ! â€" millions of francs, so I must be content t-o receive my pay, whioh is good." "Have you intrusted the Saltan's diamonds to the care of a scamp like this?" said Brett, addressinu himself to Hussein, and inwardly resolving that unless the conversa- tion by chance took a turn favorable to himself, he would forthwith open fire on the gang and endeavor to escape. "Yes," cried the conspirator with a 6a\-age laugh. "You have never seen tbem, Mr. Brett? Here they are. To many men the sight would be a pleasant one. To you it should be terrible, for the arrival of these diamonds at this moment means that you must die." So saying, he produced from an inner pocket of lus frock-coat a large, plain morocco case. The pres- sure of a spring cauaed the lid to fly back, revealing to the eyes of those in the room a collection of diamonds marvelous by reason of the size and m&guificeucu of each stone. In the center reposed the Imperi- al diamond itself. For an instant Brett reflected that whilst the other men were fascinated by the spec- tacle he would have a good oppor- tunity to shoot some of them with- out mercy and make a dash for lib- erty. But at the same moment there came to him an odd thought. His friend the jeweller of the Rue d© la Faix had not given him a lesson in vain during the previous afternoon.

Possibly more interest is taken to-day in formulating the right ration for a calf than ever before. We have learned, says Hoard's Dairyman, that through certain combinations of feed, large, strong, vigorous calves may be grown and when the right practices are followed there is vei-y little danger of losing a calf. Professor T. L. Haecker of the Minnesota Ex- periment Station has spent many years in studying the calf-diet and ho answers the following inquiry in Farm, Stock and Home : "Would like a good ration for feeding young calves that must drink separated milk? Have clover hay, clover and timothy mixed, shorts, bran and oil meal." To build body a liberal supp'v of protein is required and all the f ';ds mentioned are good for young ^tock and for milk production. For calves clover hay and grain mi.xture may be • i former and a ton of the latter havf ! been a<Jdcd to our .storo of feotl. .A i teaspoonful of blood meal iu a small mess uf milk gives satisfactory re- sults, notwithstanding the fact that j it costs $l>'5 per ton. They alf>u i have access to a mixture of salt and bone meal, equal parts. If they grow rapidly, they need the bone for building bone. Having access to this mixture, tUcy never got in the habit of gnawing boaixls and bark. Persons roaring coits also should bear this in mind.
