CHAPTER VI
Lady Elian Taket Flight
"Now will you tell me your plana?"
began Strathgate as the three descend-
ed to the mall
"We must have horaea and a ve-
hicle of some kind" she said
"Would not a post chaise do?”
"There are three of us my lord”
answered Ellen
"I see" returned the earl who was
eery much annoyed and put out by
the Infliction of this third party In
hat he had fondly hoped would be a
tete-a tete flight
There waa no help for It however
He trusted to fortune ’to assist him
to dlsiKise of Mistress Ih-borah later
"Where shall we get this carriage?"
"If the stahicg of course"
She was thoroughly familiar with
the lay of the land and the location
‘ af the stables The coachman W bo
was unmarried slept In a house by
himself Entrance waa easy since
the door waa not locked
"lA't me do the talking” said
Strathgate "He won’t recognize you
If yon stay back here In the dark-
nesa” "Very well' assented Ellen as the
earl stepped 'over to the bed and
roughly shook the coachman who
opened his eyes to find himself star-'
Ing Into the muzzle of a pistol
“Lie still I want to borrow a pair
and a carriage from your master I'm
driving far to night and I want a aord
ralr No you are not to bother aiout
hitching them up I simply wished to
tell you the facts ao you won't make
any trouble”
He opened his mouth to cry out
Strathgate shoved his pistol barrel
closer to him truculently remarking:
"If you make a sound I'll blow out
your brains Now do you under-
stand? I don't Intend to steal the
horses You'll find them well at some
wayside Inn 20 miles from here Mean-
while we will have to tie you up and
gag you"
"Very well my lud" returned Hlg
glnbotham to whom the shining
weapon was a powerful persuader
"Which are the best pair for travel-
ing I wonder?" queried the eaj'l as
he Ellen and Deborah surveyed the
long row of stalls
"I have heard my lord say that the
bays were the most reliable horses
he had"
“The bays It'll be then" said Strath-
gate He quickly selected the harness led
out the bays and In a few moments
the two were attached to a light trav-
eling carriage
“Where now?" said Strathgate when
all the preparations had been com-
pleted
"fVe are going to Portsmouth as I
think I told you my lord"
Strathgate was an expert whip and
he found no difficulty in keeping the
spirited horses going quietly over the
grassy turf which bordered the drive-
way and as he had predicted they got
past the house without making a
sound llut one obstacle remained be-
tween them and freedom— the lodge-
keeper and the lodge gate Ellen had
forgotten It until they had gone some-
thing like a quarter of a mile through
the park when she suddenly thrust
her head out of the window of the
carriage and called it to Strathgate's
attention
"Ict me attend to that” returned
the earl confidently "I have a plan
Do you keep close and let the curtain
be drawn”
He diove close to tho wall of the
lode-keeper's cottage hammered on
the window with the butt of his whip
and when that functionary appeared
Strathgate boldly avowed bis Dame
and title and said that he was riding
foiili on a wager with my loid that
ho would bo hack lu the uijiuhig
The road from the lodge gate ran
for about half a mile through the park
until It joined the main road Ports-
mouth lay to the eastward to the
westward was Plymouth Having
passed the lodge successfully Ellen
raised the blinds of the carriage and
looked out upon the familiar scenes
flying swiftly by them for Strathgate
had pvt the bays into a fast trot and
the light carriage waa going forward
at a rapid gait In a short time they
came to the main road Now Ellen
knew the way perfectly She waa
greatly astonished therefore to see
Strathgate turning to the right She
lowered the window and thrust her
bead out once more
"My lord!" ahe called
Strathgate scarcely checking the
pace of the horses leaned back to
listen
"We wish to go to Portsmouth"
"So you said" returned my lord
"Well Portsmouth lies to the left
and you are taking us to the right"
"You will be safer at my castle In
Somerset than at Portsmouth I think
my lady"
"Rut I don't wiah to go to your cas-
tle” cried Lady Ellen angrily
"And do you Imagine my dear Lady
Carrington” chuckled Strathgate who
was greatly amused over the situation
"that 1 have run away with you from
your husband s house to defend you if
need be by sword and pistol from your
husband for the sake of handing you
over to some American sailor at
Portsmouth?"
"My lord!" exclaimed Ellen thun-
derstruck by this open intimation of
the earl's feelings '
“You must have seen that I love
you” continued Strathgate coolly
enough “and In ahort I am taking you
to my own house I shall know how
to hold you safe there"
"You villain!” cried Ellen while
Deborah overwhelmed with the horror
of this revelation for the conversation
was quite audible to her nearly faint-
ed within the carriage
Ellen had been fumbling at her belt
while this waa spoken and in a fit of
passion she suddenly reached up her
arm and discharged her pistol full at
the earl He had just time catching
a glimpse of the shining steel of the
barrel In the waning moonlight to
throw himself aside when the bullet
whistled by hla ear The startled
horses bounded Into a run at once
and for a few moments Strathgate bad
all he could do to control them
He succeeded in quieting the horses
somewhat but did not dare to bring
them to a slow pace lest Ellen should
escape from the carriage To attempt
to Jump from It which Indeed she
had thought upon was too great a risk
to life and limb and beside It In-
volved leaving Deborah behind There
waa one thing she could do however
After some tugging she got the little
She Looked Out of the Carriage
window In the front of the carriage
open and thus got access to Strath-
gate's person She thrust the barrel
of her pistol up toward his bark and
swore she would discharge It unless
he Instantly turned the carriage about
In the road
Ellen did at random shoot through
the seat but the bullet was deflected
and Strathgate was unharmed He
was greatly relieved when she dis-
charged her second weapon without
effift for he reasoned that it would
he difficult If not Impossible for her
to recharge them In the darkness of
the carriage at the pace they were
going and he therefore felt safe for
the rest of the journey although he
did not resume his seat on the box
nor did he check the speed of the
horses
This was a fine end or a fine begin-
ning of her adventure thought Iady
Carrington bitterly She had never
dreamed of this and she blamed her-
self for a fool not to have thought of
it Of course Lord Strathgate's Inter-
est In her was a selfish one
Her escape would be discovered In
a short time his sbsence would be
noted the testimony of the coachman
of the stable boys of $he lodgekeeper
would be had It would be known
that they had gone away together
She would be ruined forever
They had borne themselves gallant-
ly He Judged that they had gone at
least 20 miles from Carrington A few
miles farther on was a tavern where
the ladles could be bestowed The tav-
ern keeper was a friend of his who
would ask no questions
Hut fortune was on Idy Carring-
ton's side that night In more ways
than one For with a sudden Jolt the
fore-right-wheel of the carriage sank
Into a deep rut There was a crash
as the wheel gave way at the hub
Strathgate was hurled violently from
his s at and lay stunned In the road
Tho Luisjs utterly tired out were glad
to atop Ellen and Deborah were
thrown against the front of the car-
riage but beyond a severe shaking and
some bruises sustained no injuries
Surmising what had happened El-
len hire open the dour of the carriage
seized Deborah by the hand dragged
her out and ran desperately down the
road She did not see Strathgate
she did not know where he was she
'did not care
With all the strength of her stout
young body she ran down the nUd
She did not turn back toward Ports-
mouth for she divined that If Strath-
gate recovered consciousness he would
Immediately Imagine that she had
gone that way She was unfamiliar
with the part of the country In which
she found herself but she had a gen-
eral Idea that the roads in either di-
rection led to the sea and her hope
waj to reach the shore There was
nothing that floated tha' she could not
sail If she could get a boat she
could make Portsmouth harbor with-
out danger of pursuit
The dawn was gray In the east
Ellen judged It was about half after
four o’clock They had been gone two
hours from the castle and a half hour
from the carriage when the road
swerved to the southward and led from
the forest to a little fishing hamlet on
the shore of Lyme bay Nobody was as
yet stirring In the town although
lights twinkled here and there In the
windows Indicating that some of the
fisherfolk were making ready for their
day’s labor
Ellen was too desperately anxious
to get away to stop to bargain with
anyone for a boat She ran down to
the little wharf Jutting out Into the
small Inclosed htrbor and rapidly se-
lecting the best of the little vessels
tied there she hauled In the painter
drew It alongside the wharf made
Deborah get aboard laid five guineas
down on the wharf where the boat had
been secured in the hope that the
owner of the boat would recelvf the
money which was full value for the
vessel hoisted the sail shoved away
from the wiarf and under the Influ-
ence of a gentle breexe ran rapidly out
of the harbor
"I would Sir Charles Seton were
here!" cried poor Debbie who had
not the advshtage of Ellen's exten-
sive and Intimate acquaintance with
the male sex and who therefore did
not share her detestation of 1L
“And what Is he to th?e child?”
asked Ellen gleefully?
"He said he cared very much for
me” returned Deborah "yesternight
in the library over the good book of
Master Laxter"
"’TIs a gallant gentleman Debbie”
returned Ellen “Hut they are all
that before marriage My lord of
Carrington I once thought was well-
nigh perfect”
"Hut what did he” asked Debbie
“that you leave him thus?”
And this heroine who had schemed
and fought like a man for her lib-
erty bowed her head upon the Puri-
tan's shoulder and wept like any other
woman
Deborah consoled her as best she
might and In turn Kllen assured her
that If Sir Charles really loved her
he would follow her wherever she
might go Who shall say In that as-
surance Ellen was not persuading her-
self that if Kernard Carrington really
loved his own wife he would not be
far from Charles Seton on the chase
across the sea?
CHAPTER VII
My Lord Hsars III Tidings
The morning sun was streaming
brightly through the windows when
Carrington glanced at hla watch as he
opened his eyes and waa startled to
discover that It was already seven
o'clock And he had meant to get
up early that day to prepare himself
the better for that Interview with his
wife Hastily arising he stole soft-
ly to the door opening Into her bou-
doir tried the knob gently and found
that the door whs linked He lis-
tened but could hear nothing Imag-
ining that she was still asleep he sum-
moned his valet bathed and dressed
himself with unusual care for the op-
erations of the day and then returned
to the door of the boudoir Aguln he
knocked and more loudly Receiving
no answer he fairly thundered upon It
with his feet to be met with the
same silence as before

DOUCTFUL OF THE GUARANTEE
Specific Clausa Caused Incraie In
Pries of Cloth
The Arabs and Indeed all Mos-
lems have the practice of re-enforelng
promises by adding to their word of
honor the Arabic phrase Inshallah —
"please God" llow much meaning It
ronveys In some lands of the east Is
told In the pages of "In Moorish Cap-
tivity” The pious proviso Is a very useful
formula to the Moors and Is frequent-
ly used In making promises that they
have no Intention whatever of keep-
Ing as they can then take refuge be-
hind the Almighty when they are
taxed with their breach of faith
There Is s story told of a man who
kept a shop In Glhrsltar and who
knew the ways of the Moor To him
one day came one of the faithful who
waa desirous of buying souie cloth
On being Informed that the price was
two dollars a yard payment In 60
days he replied:
"All right I will lake so much and
will pay you In 60 days Inshallah”
"No" said the vender “the price Is
two dollars payment In 60 day For
60 days Inshallah the price Is two
dollars and a half”- Youths Com-

Kcp Trying
If hots should get discouraged
At lessons or at work
And say "There's no use trying”
And all the hatd tasks shirk
And keep on shirking shirking
Till the boy becomes a man
I wonder what the w-id would do
To carry out Its plan?
The coward In the conflict
Gives up at first defeat 'X
If once repulsed his courage
Lies shattered at his feet
The brave heart wins a battle
Ileeause through thick and thin
He'll not give up as conquered—
He fights and fights to win
So boys don't get disheartened
Because at first you fall
If you but keep-on trying
At last you will prevail i
Be stubborn against failure
Try try and try again
The boys who keep on trying
Have made the world's best men

Stopping Washing on Hilly Land
Prevention Is better than a cure but
there may be others who like myself
unknowingly broke the wild sod across
Oe ravines or natural run-waya and
found out too late that they never
should have been plowed Sometimes
on hilly land a wash-out may atart
on top of a hill where there Is no
naiural depression but one caused by
a dead furrow These washes leave
unsightly ditches and often cover
large portions of the best land in the
low places W!th sand and gravel mak-
ing them unproductive besides cut-
ting the fields Into Irregular shapes
making them hard to work I have
tried many ways of stopping a wash
sometimes with success sometimes
with failure
If tke wash is a small one two or
three feet deep It can be filled partly
full of brush then straw on top ’then
by plowing throwing the dirt on ths
straw then sowing rye and June grass
seed and If the rye gets a good atart
before another heavy riln It usually
holds
If the wash Is a large one and grad-
ually breaking off at the tipper end
It Is harder to handle We have tried
filling these with brush and straw
but with little success they keep
working Lack breaking off as the
water works under the sod
Now we build a dam with plow and
shovel across the ravine eight or ten
feet above the end of the ditch leav-
ing a space In the riilddle for a flume
made of lumber ao tight that there
will be no leakage cementing It at the
end so that no water works its way
outslds and long enough to extend six
or eight feet over the ditch first set-
ting a long post In 'the ditch for the
end of the flume to rest on then fill
In with bri-ih for the water to dis-
charge upon
Another way we have tried with sue
cess Is to thrash a straw pile Into the
head of the ditch then make a dam
round the head and down both aides
seeding with rye and blue'grass In
(his way dividing water and carrying
It down on a well sodded run-way
end by sowing rye and grass seed on
the slope of the ditch it may be held
from getting any worse
We have tried growing willows on
the bottom and sides of these washes
with but little success
The farmer with hilly land liable to
wash should plow and cultivate as
little as possible keeping the land
In hay and permanent pasture and
keeping more cows and more sheep
will keep toe land from washing and
the farmer from bankruptcy — (W C
Bradley before Wisconsin Institute)
Product of Six Ewes
An Iowa sheep grower says:
"One lamb to the ewe and that Is
certainly a low estimate would mean
six lambs at $3 per head or $18 for
the lamb crop One dollar and'lAty
conts per head Is certainly not too
high for an estimate on wool which
would rmoui-t to $9 for six ewes Add-
ing this to the $18 for lantbs gives a
total of $27 and as proof that 1 have
ven th? sheep the worst of the es-
timate I could cite you many flocks
that have given double these returns
from a merely market standpoint I
will venture the statement that not
flocktnaster will agree to contract
the Income from his flock at these
figuiea"
Three of as good colt as I ever laid
eyes on I saw the other day In a neigh-
boring field and from dams that had
been worked in the field constantly up
to the time the colts were foaled
A little planning before building
yards and putting In gate will some-
times save miles of travel In doing
chores In fact the chores on many
farms could be reduced front ten to
fifty per cent by having the buildings
and yards properly arranged
Milk quietly cleanly quickly and
thoroughly Cows do not like unnec-
essary itolseor dtlay Milk at nearly

Ccn Culture
The railing of w hlte beans Is a ffreat
Industry In many sections and it it
profl able because the output Is as
much a staple as wheat or corn Like
these crops It Is a food stuff which
has keeping quality
The bean growing Industry has
gravitated to the poorer lands so that
but little cf It la found In the corn
belt And yet there are places In the
corn belt snd many of them where
beans might be grown to advantage
Sandy knolls or worn out fields which
will only make twenty bushels of corn
per acre will return a greater cash
product If planted to beans
Bean culture was once considered
very laborious but It Is not neces-
sarily so now By the use of modern
machinery It is made easy They may
be planted with a two-horse corn plant
er cultivated with riding plows and
seeders pulled when ripe thrashed
snd even sorted by machinery
To make the most of the space the
hills mays be only six Inches apart
but the rows should be vrde enough to
permit horse culture When planted
In this way and carefully cultivated if
the ground Is free from weeds the
crop may be carried through by horse
power But if the soil Is foul one hand
hoeing will be needed The crop la
loaded from the puller Into hay racks
and hauled to the bam Spread upon
the barn floor or loft It will be ready
for thrashing after two weeks of dry
weather Before marketing sorting is
absolutely necessary
The old plan waa to get the family
together in the evening about the
kitchen table and each by handfuls
picked out the bad specimens But
the modern bean Borter is a small ma-
chine and cheap which you may take
Into any room The motion Is controll-
ed by a treadle and a slowly moving
canvas carrier brings the beans to
your hand as fast as you can look
them over one spry man doing the
work of five by the old system
Th Cotton Boll Waavlt
Encouraging results are announced
by the Bureau of Entomology from its
recent careful examination to deter-
mine the i resent status of the boll
weevil The bureau examined some
40 localities In the states of Texas
Ixvulslana Mississippi Arkansas and
Oklahoma all Infected by the cotton
boll weevil In each locality from
two to five representative fields were
selected and In each one of these
fields groups of plants were examined
Estlniatinthe number of plants tc
the acre it was easy then to compute
the number of weevils to the acre
This plan has been follow ed for sev-
eral years so that the comparisons
can now be made with conditions ex
Istlng in previous years The number
of weevils Is shown to be much email
er at this time throughout the Infected
area than It was at this time last year
due primarily to the unfavorable
weather last fall especially the very
early first killing frost In Eastern
Texas no weevils were found whereas
last year there were 226 per acre In
southern Texas the weevils stand 256
now as against 308 last year in west-
ern Texas 11 against 101 In Louis-
iana 174 of the Inserts were found as
against against 485 last lear In Ok-
lahoma no weevils were found The
figures are for comparison only and
will not of course aland for the en-
tire season as the Insects may not
have emerged from hibernation In
such numbers as to have been detect-
ed Tha Hog That Is Always Staple
All admire a goodlooking bog and
there Is no reason why good looks
should not go with the highest useful-
ness but neither good looks nor fancy
breeding should stand for a moment
In the way of the hog that combines
vigor of constitution growihlne-s and
reasonably early maturity with a form
pleasing to the eye When we come
to t lie final test of beauty "pretty Is
as ’pretty does" The prettiest bog
ajjer all Is the one that Is most profit-
able the one that makes the most
and best pounds of gain from a hun-
dred pounds of the most Inexpensive
dry matter the one that makes the
largest contribution toward providing
for the family pecessities toward
meeting the Interest on the mortgage
ami to paying the mortgage itbelf for
the addition to the house the new
carpet the piano or organ the new
dresses for the girls or their educa-'
tion at school
If the breeders of any breed depart
from the practical hog they make a
mistake for aooner or later the common-sense
fainter will demand the
common sense hog and will waive any
preference he may have for particu-
lar color of hair curl of tall or droop
of ear If breeders of Any breed de-
part from this for any consid rable
length of time farmers may say little
about It but they will buy some other
breed that more netirly meets their
requirements— (F D Coburn) '
There is only one thing that Is more
discouraging than every other thing
combined and that Is to have land dur-
ing the crop season continue to remain
under water Land subject over-
flow always has been and ahes will

Topeka Kan Aug 3— The total
assessed valuation of all property in
the state of Kansas exclusive of that
of the Western Union Telegraph Com-
pany which Is tied up In a legab
tangle Is over two billion dollars t
be exact $2451766715 These arc-
tbe figures certified to the state audi-
tor last night by the state tax com-
mission The figures are approximate
but represent about the actual value
of all the property of all the counties
In w hich slight changes may be made
These figures are astonishing com-
pared with the total assessed valua-
tion last year The valuation for
this year is Just about two bllliotk
dollars higher than that for last year
The total valuation last year was-
$425000000 That valuation was se-
cured under the old tax law The-
blg valuation for this year la the re-
sult of the first experiment with th®
new tax law
The comforting part of the state-
ment given out by the state auditor
last night Is the fact that the tax
levy for state purposes this year will
be only six-tenths of a mill Tbl
levy will raise a total of $2296590
which will be sufficient for all state-
purposes The tax levy for last year
for state purposes was six and three-
tenths mills over five mills higher
tban It will be this year
Even though the valuation Is higher
this year than ever before It Is ex-
pected by the taxing officials that the
taxes will really be lower for th
reason that much property has been
put on the tax rolls that was never
there before
The state auditor will certify out
to the different counties their respec-
tive valuations Monday That Is th
reason for the activity desplayed by
the auditor’s office and the tax com-
missioner's department last night lit
making up the totals They should
have had a week more In which to
make up the valuations but the coun-
ty boards will meet Monday to make-
their levies
The total valuation Is about what
the tax commissioners predicted that
It would be They figured on about
two and one-half billion dollars
The amount of the Western Union-
valuation which Is not Included In
the total valuation given Is $3159
