"It â€"isâ€"warm,*~â€"murmured ~Sir Ralph. ‘‘HMow strange that it should be warm!‘‘ "You‘nare not much changed," he gaid, presently, in a â€" dreamy, farâ€" away voice, "only you look hapâ€" picr."* * "I am happicr," answered madame, gently..

She therefore sat quictly down by the bed, and Sir Ralph‘s sunken eyes followed her as she did this.. Her touch seemed to affect his dull senses. He stirred, and a moment or two later opened his éyes and fixed them with a bewildered look on her face. "Sir Ralph?"" said the doctor, inâ€" qviringly. ‘‘Yes, Sit Ralph Woodland; I knew him seyeral years ago." The doctor, after doing what he conld for Sir Ralph, and â€" giving maâ€" dame directions, hurried away to se what assistance the rest of the men required; and madame was left alone with her unexpected guest.

"It is very good of vou.‘"" he said; *‘but you are always good."* In a few minutes more Sir Ralph Woodland was carried into a comâ€" fortable bedroom and laid © on . the bed. Here, as outside, everything was arranged with good taste. Again maâ€" dame hbent over the prostrate man, and this time he swallowed a little dose of the brandy she held to his lips. Then his drenched clothes were removed and replaced by a warm flannel dressingâ€"gown, and his wet boots pulled off, and his cold feet chafed with spirit. Madame, assisted by one of the sailors of the yacht, did everything she could to revive him, and a quarter of an hour later the village doctor hurried in. ‘‘Ah, madame,"" he said, also reâ€" spectfully, ‘"I hope that there is nothing serious the matter.‘ 1 * He was a long; lean, wcathcr-bcnt-‘ en man, this village doctor, but he apparently had his wits about him, and after examining the patient he beckoned madame out of the room.

Poor George was gone,; she told herseli, and he could not have loved her very _ decplyâ€" since he had married Auna _ Lindsay so soon. â€" Here she wronged â€"_George,â€" but it . made her selfâ€"reproach lighter, and as theso thoughts were passing through her mind the doctor rapped at the door of the room she was in. ‘‘May I come in?" he asked; and when he entered he looked very grave. 5 Mooney‘s Perfection Cream Sodas are different from any othr cracker.

She _ therefore _ wisely ceased to abuse her, but has not yet succeeded in overcoming Sir Ralph‘s prejudices. And the husband and wife?

It was as follows: ‘"Sir Ralph Woodland requests that Mrs. Snowe will not attempt . in future to visit his wife, whom sho so bascly . slandered." Patty was furious, and more furâ€" ious when she heard that Lady Danâ€" vers was staying at Rathbourne Hall, and that ali the best people in the neighborhood had called on Lady Woodland. She _ therefore â€" wisely ‘‘Not dead; thatâ€" creature not dead.‘"‘ she cried, panting â€" with pasâ€" sion, ‘Then she began, pale with rage, to realize what this 111003 to her.

After her interview with Sirâ€" Ralph at Harewood, when he lay inâ€" jured, Patty had returned to their rooms in town in a state of mind ' almost impossible to describe. Ella May had advised ber sister not to go to Harewood, but Patty had inâ€" sisted on running the risk, and havyâ€" ing much confidence in her youth, beauty, and attractions, had hoped by one bold throw to win back Sir Ralph. ; 1 When she failed, for some day: was like a madâ€"woman. Then dried her tears. "I will marry Mr. Snowe," she said to Ella, and she did marry him; but all the same she had never forâ€" given Sir Ralph Woodland, nor the woman whom she believed had taken him away from her. His marriage, therefore, was & fresh blow to her, and she wonderâ€" ed how she could best take her roâ€" venge. She spoke slightingly of the new Lady Woodland in the parish, yet when, some months later, Sir Ralph brought his wife to Rathâ€" bourne Hall she proposed to her hus» band that they should call on thein. ‘‘Yes, .of cimrsv, my dear," anâ€" swoered the kindly vicar. .

Witte, the chief Russian envoy, comes out of the conference with enâ€" hanced prestige. His was an almost impossible task, and at best a thankâ€" less one. That he should have been so successful in his opposition to the contested demands will _ strengthen his position when he comes to the even more difficult _ Aask of domestic reform and reorganization which is the only hope of Russia. Taken all ‘in all, it will be seen that Japan has done exceedingly well in securingâ€"theâ€"really essentialâ€"things for which the war was waged, and it may be taken for granted that Japan will so strengthen her position that no attack of Russia can hope for sucâ€" cess, for some generations at Irast. The demand for the surrender of the interned warshigs was altogether new in diplomacy. No historical precedâ€" ent existed. Japan is, however, seâ€" cure, because, in spite of vast expenâ€" ditures on her navy, Russia seems unâ€" able to breed and train capable seaâ€" men. The new treaty with Great Britain also secures to Japan in time of need the British navy, and with that asset, the limitation of Russian sea power in the Far East becomes less important." # The Japanese demand for indemâ€" nity was, from the first, looked upon by many â€" as hardly feasible, owing to the fact that no Russian territory was in the hands of the enemy, and its withdrawal is not perhaps so much a proof of magnanimity as a recogniâ€" tion of facts. The cession of the lease of the Liaâ€" otung Peninsula _ places in Japan‘s hands the two great strongholdsfthat command the North Pacific, and as. sures Japan of a strategic position almost corresponding to Great Britâ€" ain‘s on the Mediterranean. < The permanance of the check â€" thus given Russia depends on her.obseryâ€" ance of the treaty, and .Russia is not noted for Quixotic qualms ~of conse. ience, where even solemn _ treaty rights of other nations are concerned. The ‘"open door" provisions bear out Japan‘s assertion that the war was Teally waged, on behalf of all the Wesâ€" term world. ‘ At ‘the first glance, Japan seems to have yielded on the really important: points, but this is not borne out by analysis. Japan did not ostensibly, at least, embatk on the war as . a wat of conquest or aggression, but to: check the steady castward movement ol Russia to the Pacific littoral, which threatened Japan‘s very existâ€" ence asâ€"a nation.â€"This has been done by the evacuation of Manchuria _ and the recognition of Japan‘s preponderâ€" ance in Korea, as agreed to by the Russian envoys. Japan at the last moment withâ€" drew the demands for a war indemâ€" nity, the interned warships, the limâ€" itation of the Russian naval power in the Far East, and also compromâ€" ised on article 5 by accepting the southern half of Sakhalin instead of insisting on the whole. Worldâ€"wide humanity will rejoice at the result of ~the Peace Convention. Thoughthe satisfaction is tinged with surprise, the main fact stands out in clear reliefâ€"that . tae war is ended, and the most appalling slaughter of modern times has ceased. Though the satisfaction is tinged with ed Russia‘s consent to the following conditions: Recognition of Japan‘s preponderance of influence in Korea, with right to preserve order: mutial evacuation of Manchuria and its reâ€" turn to China; mutual obligations to respect in future the territorial inâ€" tegrity ~and "adminsitrative cn(ity"‘ of Chira, and to preserve "the upen : door‘‘ in both Korea.agg Manchuria; Russia cedes to Japan its lease of the Liaotung Peninsula, including P«)r{ Arthur and Dalny.
