"It is a pleasure indeed," ^>«nyard gravely acknowledged their several salutations. "Be that as it may," said Phiinuit â€" "heire is the happy family reunited and ready to talk busineao." "And no hard feeHngs, Monsdeur Phkiudt?" 'We don't want to pull any rough stuff €«i you. Lanyard." "Rouigh otuff, monsieur? You nrteon, phj^ical force?" "Not exactly.

' "But ia it possible," Lanyard pro- teated, "you atill bdiew I am a thief at heart and interested in tho«e Jew«- ela only to turn them t« my own profit?"

"He's lying," Honk insisted, put- ting a restraining hand on Phinuit's arm. Ijanyard crejsseel rapieUy to the hall door and flung it open â€" and fell back a pace with a cry of emazement. "Madame!" Lanyard gaspedâ€" Ma- dame de Montalais!" She entered with a gladness in her face that was carried out by the im- pulsive gesture with which she gave hdm her hands. "My dear friend!" she cried happily • â€" "I am so glad! And to think we have been guests of the same hotel for three livelong days and never knew it I arrived by La Touiraine Saturday, but your message, tele- graphed back from Combe-Bedonde, reached me not five minutes ago.

"Madame la Comtesae de Lorgnies â€" Monsieur Monk â€" Mr. Phinuit â€" ^how delightful to see you all again!" The civility met with inadequate appreciation. "Nothing could be more opportune," Lanyard declared; "for it is to thaa lady, Madarme de Montalais, end to these gentlemen that you owe the re- covery of your jewels." , "But how can I thank" them?" "Well," said Lanyard, "if you ask me, I believe they would be most grateful to be permitted to leave and keep their numerous and pressing ap- pointments elsewhere." "I am entirely of your mind, mon- sieur." Larjyard nodded to the man in the doc-rway â€" "All right, Mr. Murray" â€" and he stood indifferently asids. In siJenco the three men moved to the deer and out. Phinuit with a brazen swagger, Jules -without emo- tion visible. Monk with eyebrows adrocp and flapping. But Lanyard interposE»d when Liane Delorme would have followiid. v, "A moment, Liane, if you will be eo good." She paused, regarding ham with a sombre and inscrutable face while he produced from his coat-pocket a fat envelope witho'Ut endorsement. "This is yx>ur8." The woman murmured blankly: "Mine?" He cold in a guarded voice: "Pa- pers I found in the safe in your lib- rary, that night. You are unwise to keep such papers, Liane. Good-bye." Liftinig tho flap, the woman half withdrew the enclosure, recognized it at a glance, and crushed it in a con- vuilsdve grasp. For an Instant she seemed about to speak, then bowed hc'r head in dumb acknowledgement, and left the room. Lanyard nodded to Mr. Murray, who amiably closed the door, keepOing himself on the outside of it. Eve die Montalais was eyeing him with an indulgent and amused glance. "That woman loves you, monsieur," she sitated quietly. He succcodod admirably on looking OS iif the thoHight was strange to him. "One is suto madame must be mi»- taken," "Ah, buit I am not!" e<aid Eve <te Montalais. "Who should ki»ow better the eigns that tell of woman's love fexr you, my dear?" (The End.) Work of Tiinber Investigation During investigations into the me- chanical and physical properties of Canadian woods by the Forest Prev- ducts Laboratories, Ottawa, upward of 60,000 teats and determii nations have been made. The data gathered are of wide industrial applicability, and are available to all Canadians interested. Produce Spineless Gooseberry As a result of some years experi- menting, the Horticultural Division of the Dominion _ Experimental Forms has succeeded in isolating a variety of gooseberry which is practically thomlcss and spineless and bears fruit of a commercial siee. The new var- iety has been named Spinefree and' the fruit is of good quality, rather tbick-okinned, bright red in color' when ripe, and entirely free of prickles.

Herbert was what is generally known as a "destructive" child, and Mis:y N , his kindergarten teacher, bad been wondering for a wook just what she was going to Jo ab'^nt it If she had been an Qjd-fasiKioned teacher, she would simply have scold- ed or punished. But M was a new- fashioned teacher, and eo she pon- dered. Herbert was unusiu'.ly "bad'" en Monday morning. Ho had Rui.°hed little Jane's "cake" which she had fo carefully made in tlw »artd pile. He had kicked over Dicky's beautiful best place for horn. How unwise and unnecessary this treatment was: What this boy really needed was » work bench and tools, or bettor still, house of blocks and he had upset blue- 1 the privilege gi joining a CArjentry eyed Marian's doll carriage, right class!

Looking nromd for new fields to conquer, he s.iw some of the hoys busily making i>oats at the work- bench, and he suddenly announced: "I want to make a boat, too." Miss N told him he would have to wait until there was room at the bench, which he patiently did. At length Teacher said, "Now it's Herbert's and John's torn «it the benefa:"; and the two little chaps eagerly gathered together their wood and hanmters and nails. MOTIVE BACK OF REQUEST. This was a first adventure at the work bench for both these boys, as they had but lately entered the school. Miss N consequently glanced in their direction shortly, and saw that Herbert was hammering away lusrtily, but that John, who was smaJIer and lees vigorous about his work, was own garden! If we want our children to talce cars of their toys, we moat select play- things which they can mampulate, with which th^ can "do" aomethiRg.; The mechanical toys are interestinip for a short while, bat after they havo held the stage for a time, the young- ster, who always wants to be the â- tar performer, either discards them entirely, or finds that the only really intreesting thii^ he can do with them is to take them to pieces to diooover what HMkes the "wheels go round." Simple, strong, serviceable toys, which act as lay figures for the child's im- agination, are what he wants and needs! Tiiking care of a garden, or if this is out of the , question, on« or two plants, gives a child's activity a splen- did outlet. Who would think of thoughtlesdy stepping upon a tiny grrowing thdng,.aiter havini? had the joy of caring for and mirturing his having rather a hard time. "Will you help John a little with tho ham- mering, Herbert?" she suggested. "You do it so well." Herbert at once Not only will constructive activities of all kinds cure "destructiveness," but they will be of positive value as well. They will give an outlet to complied. When the boats were fin- 1 the child's desire to create; through ishwi, both boys proudly exhibited working with materials he will ac- them to their teacher.

THE COUNTRY Sweet is it to forsake the. noisy street For a quiet path that wanders thro' a wood'; A path that knows not hurry, but attunes All life to its own leisure; sweet to live, Carless of time, in a wide solitude Of deepest shade, thro' whose high rifts the sun Sifts like a dust of silver flecked with green. Sweet is it at all seasons, but most sweet In the unspotted sheen of early spring. When all the woods, even to the low- est shrub That couches in their shadows, stand arrayed In their full-foliaged glory. When the birds. Stirred by the sunshine and the soul • of spring. In a sweet rivah-y of rapture pour Their feelings into song, and each to each. Fling answering melodies diverse, but all Divinely sweet. The air, serenly calm. And dewy-warm with al^ wild wood- land scents, Here takes no stain, but every hour abides. Like mom, in its first freshness, sweet and pure. â€" J. C. M. Duncan. «.

Often parents meet this same prob- lem. Mary breaks everything," and Jack takes everything to pieces," are frequently heard. (Dould not these parents adopt the methods that Miss N used with Herbert? Could they not give their "destructive" children plenty of materials with which to con- struct? I am confident they would see a quick change! If children write on the walls, why not give them paper upon which to write? If they tear up books, cannot old newspapers and magaanee be substituted? Pieces of L wood to hammer are much siore ac- ceptable than parlor furniture. l«t us give active little hands all kinds of materials, such as plastenxene, clay, sand, scissors, paste, crayons, paints, hammers, blocks, etc. Later on, there sante boys and girls, too, will need work benches and well-made Minard's Liniment for insect bites.
