DIBBELL. “Broda Norton you are kinds of a goose if you don’t try to break that horrid will—any judge would decide you had all the right theré was to the money.” “Consider me the whole sixteen kinds then; Cousin Olive had a per- fect right to do as she chose with her own.” With wrathful sarcasm Alice Pack- “Of course your being for over five years at the ard again broke forth. beck and call of an utterly unreason- able egotist is nothing—" Broda stopped her. “Now Alice, you know that Cousin Olive had the kindest of hearts and was very good to me. I am sure I shall soon find something to do, so don’t you worry about me.” “You need a good long rest first of all; you are looking simply tired out. 1 only wish I had a home of my own to take you to—but what can a board- ing school teacher do?” “What a nice rhyme, and who is the goose now? [ never felt better, and do not in the least need a vacation.” But Alice insisted that a rest was imperative, and when she departed it was with the firm determination that Broda should In some way obtain her rights. Broda at once started upstairs to finish her packing, this being the day on which she was to leave her cousin's. Promptly at five o’clock the village hack arrived, her trunk was hoisted to its place, and after receiv- ing a tearful farewell from Matilda, Cousin Olive’'s housekeeper, Broda was driven to the widow Rruce's cot- tage where she had engaged a room. Proda had many friends in Peter- bury, and it was ret long hefore an elde couple whose last single daughter had just married and gone to live in a it part of the state, engaced her to act as companion and general “cheerer up of the lonesome two that were Lft.” It was thus Deacon Haverhill put it, when he came to talk matters over. The new home nroved a very happy one for Rroda, the deacon and his wife treating her as if she were in- deed a daughter of their own, Meanwhile John \Weston, Cousin Olive's heir, had entercd into the pos- session of the estate Broda first saw him after the morning service as she was coming down the aicle of the church with the Haverhills. It was weon who pointed him out, and ted her onpinion of “Coustin Olive alvays had a weak- ness for big men with dark cyves and hair, and he evidently had all three of those peoints in his favor,” was Bro- da’s response The deacon added, “looks to me ke a geod sensible fellow—I mean to speak to him first chance I get.” This chance came sooner than he expected, for on reaching the door John Weston surprised them by ad- dressing Broda. “I beg your pardon for my abrupt- ness, Miss Morton, but we must be Mim cousins in some degree. and I am go- | ing to ask if you will grant me an in- terview to talk over an important matter?” Broda liked the dark eyes which met her own so frankly, and answered demurely: “You must ask Deacon Haverhill, here, if 1 may ask you to Haverhill House.” The deacon laughed, and gave John Weston a friendly handshake. “Miss Broda knows that our house is al- ways open to her friends.” John thanked him and Tuesday aft. ernoon was set for the interview. John Weston was prompt to the minute. He was no sooner seated than he spoke to the point. “Cousin Broda, your friend Miss Packard came to me last week and told me of your five years’ faithful devotion to Cousin Olive. She said that sghe thought it entirely unjust for you to be left without reward of any sort for such service. I quite agree with her, and have tried to think out a way that will make matters right. Cousin Olive knew that T was well provided for and a partner in a growing busi. ness, so [ can't understand why every- thing was left to me plan, that you take the house—which Miss Packard ssys vou eare greatly for—and that we divide the cash and securities. Unless you say ves I shall feel like a thief and a robber.” Broda gave a little gasp at this generous offer. ‘Thank you a thou- sand times, but [ cannot Cousin Olive had a perfect right to do as she pleased with her own, and she was alw ood and generous to me—she never hinted at anything more than I received.” This was the first of many visits which John Westeon paid at the Haver- hill homestead The business of which spoken must have found that it could exist without its junior partner, for 1+ remained the rer thr But in Septen presence was and one perf prised Brod bunch of the “Duty calls, a greeting, and Eroda startled at the sheck his words gave her. “The senior partner says I must come at unce, or he will do s ate. Before I go I have one other solution to offer concerning the es. tate.

He left IPeterbury the day after her rebuff, to take up his work in a distant city. Life even with the kindly Haver hills assumed a very dull tome, but Broda tried her best to be a cheer ful companion for them and their af- tection for her grew. The winter dragged slowly and in early April Broda received a call from Matilda the housekeeper, John Weston having retained her in that capacity. “1 shall be right glad to get the thing off my mind,” she began with- out preamble, “for it has been & sort of nightmare to me the whole year through. Just a few weeks be- fore she died, Miss Morton handed me this package.” { Broda went at once to her room, jand with eager fingers broke the \ seals of the packet, revealing a legal ! looking document and an envelope | with her own name upon it in Olive ! Norton’s handwriting. She drew out i the sheet of paper and read: | “My dear little Broda: ! “I trust you are not harboring any unkind thoughts against your cousin, indeed I have had only your good at heart. 1 knew of no better way to bring John Weston to Peterbury than by making him my heir. T am posi- tive that if he sees you he will love you, and a better man than John it would he hard to find. T hone that hy this time you have become all the world to each cther, and if so the al- | of my will ean make no differs ence to either of yvou. At least I want you to spend the rest of your life in comfort, and to know that your love | was the greatest blescing of my lone- ly existence. Love from { “COUSIN OLIVE.” When Droda could cheek the tears she unfolded the legal document. It proved to be a regnlarly drawn and executed will, dated two months later than the one now in effect, in which Olive Norton left all of w h she died tering pos ced- with the exeception of a few lecacies—to her “beloved nieco Proda Norton." Deacon ITaverhil wrote to John Weston at once, informi m of this chanse of his afairs; and John's re- ply was to ipear in rson to ('Y"l-? gratulate 1 't on her Ttavas less na wec ¢ covery of the noy n with his | usual directness Joht €oon as he entered the Haverhill home, address- "ed Broda. “T am delighted that eousin Olive . has shown she was true blue after [ all. T shall always love you, Broda, but I am not selfish enough to want | You to marry me unless you could care for me.” “I thought you were trying to do what you believed was right, and I couldn’t come to you that way—but I do love you, John,” said Broda.

Ome of the troubles of most Euro- pean armies s that those soldiers who can get hold of it insist on using that terrible explosive, cordite, as it it were a sort of chewing gum, says Pearson’s Weekly. Its popularity is due to the fact that when chewed in small quantities it has a stimulating and exhilarating ef- fect, like small doses of alcohol. Its taste, too, i{s sweet, cordite being three-fifths nitroglycerin, an explosive which is sugary to the taste, When chewed in large quantities cordite becomes more powerful in its effects, bringing on a blissful state ot ecstasy and sometimes making the victim of the habit see visions. But the real danger of the habit lies in the fact that though nitroglycerin will ex- plode only when given a very hard I blow or touched by an electric spark, there is always a possibility that the grinding of exceptionall ard teeth might provide the ary hard | blow. Within the last few years at | least three soldiers—two Germans and one Austrian—have been blown to | bits, the use of cordite as a chewing | gum being the suspected cause, Revenge of a Vegetarian.
