With a few more words of apology George Davis left, and Mattie Herbert knew that she liked him and was glad Most all of the Particular Men because our Collar work Satisfies That morning, when she was busy out of doors, trying to repair the damage done to her trenches, George Davis looked over the hedge which separated the gardens. “It is 1 who should be doing that,” he ventured. “You may help” Mattie sald, quickly. A few hours’ work with her assured him that Mattie Herbert was not con- ventional, that she was the most orig: inal and charming girl he had met. Spring came and went, and June brought the looked-for blossoms in the Herberts’ garden. The four sixty- foot trenches were a riot of bloom, and some stems held four blossoms of gigantic proportions. Mattie and her mother and even Teddy picked sweet peas night and morning, and Mattie herself attended to the shipping. It was then that Mat- tie called upon her:neighbor for help. “I can't offer you much in return for your help, which I need badly,” the girl said, frankly, “but I think it you are still out of & position you and 1 could do a small business together with your chickens and our ground.” New Stars. Some of the phenomena presented by so-called “new stars” at a late stage in their history have been re- cently investigated. It was generally thought 'that these stars, in their last stages, presented a nebular spectrum, but in 1907 Hartmaun directed atten- tion to the case of Nova Persei (1801), the spectrum of which, in its later stages, no longer presented the chief nebular lines. It'is interesting to de- termine whether cll novae behave in this manner. As the result of a num- ber of observations it is suggested that this is indeed the case, a close correspondence being pointed out be- tween the stars called Wolf-Rayet stars and temporary stars in the later stages of their history. The hypothesis that the phenomenon of a temporary star is due to a star entering a nebuls is deserving of some attention, since with the emergence of the chief neb- % dozen surrounding towns.
