You know the place?” i “A model, up-to-date little farm, I ihuvo often passed it.” “I own and manage it. I am a woman agriculturist.” Her brown eyes met his frankly without the wavering of self consclousness, Her voice was devoid of the accent of the locality. “Have you always lived at Willow Branch farm?” he asked. “No. The placo was my refuge after my father's death. When his estate was settled this farm, which I had V/ive at the Willow Branch farm.' never seen, was all that was left for me. I camo here to try for my for tune as a lady farmer. And you? Why are you living on the bluft?” He turned abruptly from her, gripped the steering wheel and shot tho car suddenly forward. \When he spqke again he had apparently for- gotten her question. Nearly every day the big car came from the cliff above the lake to Wil low Branch farm. Even Billy, who at first acquaintance had feared it as greatly as he had the bear, recog- nized it as & familiar friend. “No man,” the cliff dweller an. “has a right to bind a woman unless he can come to her as | a whole man, sound in body and in | reputation. The greater his love the | less than she gives him.” | As Barnard spoke Mildred watched ‘ his eyes and lips were lines of mental pain.” | “But suppose.” she ~uc~mtcd “that | i!hn woman cares for him?' “He should not allow her to,” he | answered curtly. “He should go away —as—as I intend to.” “Are you going away?” “I must. It is the only decent thing | I can do. You know I love you, Mil- | dred. But you don’t know—you don't | ! know love me.” He hurried out of the room. A few hours later Billy trotted into the yard of the cliff dweller's cabin. He had come very fast. His drlver jumped from the cart before stopped and hurried toward the home. Barnard came to meet her. and her lips were quivering, but her | voice was firm. word of it. You could not have done " “Done what?” She opened a newspaper she car- ried.

You are strong and beautiful and young. You are making a success of the work you were brave enough to undertake. You have made for yourself a full and happy life. To tie you to an invalid would be a crime. A sick man is a miserable object, fit only for pity. 1 detest pity. I did not tell you any- thing about my illness because I did not want you to pity me. And I could not ask you to marry an invalid. I love you too well to place you at the mercy of a sick man's temper. But, when I am well again I'll come back to you if you will let me—" “You poor damaged article,” she faughed with happy mockery. “You are to be well and strong again with my help. You have asked me to You asked me if I would brilliant your innocence and I sald yes. You won't jilt me now, will you?"” SEA AS A NUTRIENT FLUID English Naturalist Convinced That Value of Ocean’s Water Has Not Been Understood. Dr. W. J. Dakin brought forward at the British association some interest- ing corroborations of Putter's theory that sea or fresh water is more or less a nutrient fluid, there being more or ganic carbon present in solution in the water than there is in the multitu- | dinous plankton that swarms there, Dr. Dakin has tried to estimate the amount of carbon and oxygen re quired by certain aquatic animals per day to cover the loss due to metabo- lism. On the basis of this estimate, which is probably very approximate, a sponge 60 grammes in weight would require to filter several thousand times its own volume of water per hour in order to obtain sufficient food —"an altogether unthinkable piece of work.” A big jelly fish would require over seven millions of nauplius larvae per day. “It is quite impossible for such large quantities to be caught, and equally strange that remains of the creatures are so rarely found it they have been captured as f Another striking fact, or result of cal- culations at all events, {s that the “producers” (the plant-plankton) are insufficient for the “consumers” (the | animal plankton). High alpine lakes, for instance, in which there is an out- standing production of animal planke | ton, are almost deserts as far as plant. | plankton is concerned. What do these alpine crustaceans and dotifers feed on? Putter's theory is the only solu- | tion of the riddlee. We come to the! idea that the water in lake and sea | is food as well as drink. There is | bread in the waters—according to the | | ingenious showing of Dr. Dakin.
