CHAPTER VIII.
The assizes are going on. and the
county town is full of barristers and
attorneys, and all interest is centered
on the Portraven bank robbery case,
for the man to be tried is a gentleman,
a member of one of the oldest families
In the county.
Mrs Bouverie la staying in the same
hotel as the Judge who is to try her
son She will stay near George to the
last; and Doctor Carter, fuming and
fussy, has taken up his quarters at
the Royal Arms too. He is beginning
to lose heart The evidence la so dead
against George, and the great, counsel
engaged can wring nothing from the
silent lips of the prisoner. With a sad,
item face of George confronts him. but
refuses to speak—refuses to account
for the money that had been in his
possession that day. He will make no
defense whatever, beyond declaring his
innocence. His counsel Is In despair.
Without doubt the Jury will bring in a
verdict of guilty.
Worn out with great anxiety, Mrs.
Bouverie lies on a sofa In a private
room of the hotel. In the garden be-
low the windows great bunches of 11-
:acs * «>nt the air. and the light breeze
rustle* the golden sprays of laburnum,
but the mother's eyes see them not.
She can only think of her boy within
the cold, gray walls of the Jail waiting
for his trial. Mr. Saville Is in the town
too. with a look of i atisfactlon on his
face; also Mr Grey, the cashier, who.
they ay, has never recovered from the
sho< k of the assault on him. He starts
at every shadow, and looks a miser-
able. haunted Individual.
In vain Dr. Carter tries to persuade
Mrs Bouverie not to attend the trial.
It will only be adlwely distressing,
he urg**s. And his inmost conviction
1* that (Jeorge will be found guilty.
Mrs. Bouverie is firm. "My place is
beside my son," she says, struggling
for calmness
So the warm spring days go by. with |
the world flooded with sunshine, and
every Held and tree in its nfw dress of
vivid green, everything bright and
beautiful, only the stern, unhappy face
of the man awaiting trial, while moth-
er pravs to lllm who pities this sor-
rowful sighing of the prisoners, tak-
ing her trouble to the foot of the i ross
and laying It there. Oh, the shame,
the misery, and the pity of It all
And the day dawns for the trial of
the bank robbery. Dr Carter makes
one more desperate effort.
Mrs. Bouverie, you are not strong
enough to stand this. I promise to send
yon word every half-hour as the case
goes on Besides, it would only dl -
tress poor (Jeorge to see you
Dr Carter, you mean well, but I
must go 1 will be very brave," Mrs.
llouverle says, looking at the doctor's
kindly face with eyes that are dim
with tears and want of sleep
"It Will kill her, poor soul!" Dr.
Carter says, half aloud
Crowds are flocking to the court-
house It Is an exciting ease The
counsel retained for George Is In the
depths of despair. He cannot see the
Chance of an acquittal unless some
wonderful evidence turns up, which is
not likely, at the eleventh hour.
Mr (irey. the cashier. Is prepared to
Identify (Ieorge Bouverie as the man
ho attacked and drugged him.
The case la not very exciting after
all. In vain Mr. Jarvls cross-examines
Mr. Orey; he sticks to his statement
without wavering. Limp and ghastly
locking he is. but firm; and yet he
never once looks at the pale, set face
of the man In the dock, who holds his
golden hea.1 up bravely. Once once,
when the Judge says
"Edward Or^y. look at the prisoner
In the dock. Do you swear that la tha
man who attacked you In the Portrav-
•n bank*
"Then only the witneas looks for a
a*rond Into the steady eyes of (Jeorge
deed, and an example should be made!
To walk boldly Into the bank, choos-
ing a moment when there waa no one
present but the cashier, and to imme-
diately chloroform him and make off
with a hundred pounds was the act of
a villain!
Dr. Carter's face grew longer and
longer as the case proceeds. Mr. Jar-
vis makes but a lame defense. Mrs.
Bouverie turns an agonized face on
the doctor, and whispers, with white
Hps:
"It Is going against him, and yet ho
is Innocent."
Dr. Carter is trembling visibly.
"Let me take you away, Mrs. Bou-
verie. My dear lady, be guided by
me. I'll let you know the instaut it Is
over." .
But she shakes her head, her poor,
sad eyes seeing only the figure in the
dock, the man with the handsome,
miserable face, that gets paler and
more desperate aa the case goes on.
He glances at his mother once, with a
world of sorrowful pity In his gaze,
and his self-control deserts hlra for a
moment.
The Judge is summing up. and every
sentence, every clear,cutting word tells
against the prisoner. It Is a scathing
speech, in Which the Jury are entreated
to lay aside any thoughts of the pris-
oner s position, of his youth, only to
remember that a hideous crime haa
been committed; and he bega them to
do their duty fearlessly, conacien-
tlouslv before God, and faithfully be-
tween the Crown and the prisoner at
the bar.
Sebastian Saville draws a long
breath as the Judge sita down. George
Bouverie la as good as condemned;
there Is not a chance of an acquitta-l
now. The Jury file out of the box.

1 have never seen practiced In any
other country, says a writer. It la
charmingly simple, and has lu good

sitions require the best trained men
available, and pay good salaries.
3. As an Investigator of infectloul
and contagious diseases at state agri-
cultural experiment stations. These
positions are especially fitted to one
who has the scientific ability and taste
for original research. There is •
great lack of men trained for auch
scientific work ln this country, our
veterinary schools formerly teaching
little or nothing of the sciences
(botany, physics, bacteriology, path-
ological anatomy, etc.) which form the
foundation of a veterinarian'! equip-
ment.
4. As a te'.erlnary surgeon ln the
cavalry service of the United States.
The position dow pays l&OQ to $1,200
yearly, with perquisites.
5. As a state veterinarian. Many
of the states now have state veteri-
narians, and the time is not far dis-
tant when every state In the union
will have such an official.
6. As a veterinarian to municipal
health boards. Already several of our
larger cities employ veterinarians as
Inspectors of abattoirs, butcher shops;
of milk and dairy products, and to as-
sist in 3anitary work generally.
7. As a stock farm manager. A
number of veterinarians are employed
on stock farms In breeding districts as
managers.
8. Practice. For those wishing to
enter upon a regular veterinary prac-
tice, desirable locations are still plen-
tiful in many parts of the United
States.
There are three times as many ani-
mals as there are human beings in the
United States. There are ten times
as many doctors of medicine as there
are veterinarians. It must seem, then,
that as the country grows older, which
means that the veterinarian will be-
come more often employed than
present, and as the value of our live
stock increases, the future must have
in store for the skilled veterinarian
an opportunity to succeed in his
chosen vocation far more favorable
than hla professional brother, ths
practitioner of general medicine.

Paint Is not expensive and it payi

vantage There are on our farms many
dilapidated poultry buildings that are
not worth painting, and for such i
buildings we do not advise painting, j
But where a fairly good house is in j
existence It 6hould be painted. It
may be thought that looks do not |
count, but this Is a mistake. The man
that has a well painted good looking
poultry house will be very much more
irr.fly to keep It clean than the man
that has a poultry house he Is asham-
ed of every time he sees It. Moreover,
paint l a preserver of the wood and
should be used for that reason as well
as for looks. One writer suggests that
a painted building is warmer than an
unpalnted one. but we doubt If the dif-

A horticulturist advocates a hedge

"perfectly free from rust, is a dark

very strong bush and splney enough to

boys." That may be so, but what do
we want of such hedges anyway? The
day of the hedge as ti boundary is past.

In preparing the land for grape
vines, plow the ground deeply, and, if
possible, subsoil. Then pulverize the
ground thoroughly to give the small
roots all the chance possible to develop.
It Is best to set the vines not nearer to-
gether thau 8 feet. The holes in which
the vines are set should be each 2 feet
square and from 18 to 20 Inches deep.
If a large number of vines are to be
set, the land should be previously
marked off, so that the row. ot viue.
will be straight both way.; as thl.
both improves the looks of th. field
and makes It easier to cultivate. One
grape grower advl.es to keep the .ur-
fsre soli .eparate from the .ubsoll
when digging the hole., and to put
back this surface dirt first when Ailing
up the holes. This will give the root,
a good medium ln which to develop.

It Is called orchard-grass because It
thrives in the shade as well as In the
sun. ln Eugland It Is called cock'a-
foot. It grows well In pastures that
are quite heavily wooded.
It will grow upon every soil not too
wet, but prefers a loam fairly sandy
la texture. Heavy soils are not suited
to It, as In such soils It roots so lightly
that it is easily thrown out by the
action of the frost. On suitable aotl
it Is a vigorous grower, and ln thin
respect Is surpassed by but few. It
is nutritious and make, good growth

to be very serviceable ln a good many
