As a matter of fact, veil might. as Cyril expressed it, ff have bought -the whole place for an old song, and though there was an air of comfort and"good taste about rooms and a certain indiscriba- blt, charm, they were evidently des- tined for use and not for show, and with the exception of some fine old . Norstegian silver, and a few good putures Herr Feick did. not pos- tes a'single thing of value. Contrasted with the. huge and era- . -burate.lc- furnished house' in Lan: `c. caster Gate with its lavishly strewn ;.:knickknacks, its "profusion of all • the beautiful things that money rr.tikl buy, - the Norwegian villa -.r 'med poor indeed. yet there was • something. about •it which • took I4ianche's fancy. .Laster on, when the whole party had started for a walk,' and when Frithiof and Blanche had quite-na' tnrally• drifted- into a tete-a-tete, shs said something to this effect "I begin.. not .to .wonder that . eau' 'sire so happy." she added, "the a he.le' atmosphere -of the place is :happiness. • I wish you -c old teach ti the secret of` it." "Have you. then. only the gift of staking other people happy'" said• .Jfithiof, "That sterns strange."

"I am afraid he must have heard what you said," he ex claimed, quickening his pace in the discomfort of the realization. "I do not know. him certainly, but one is bound to be courteous to strang- ers." -I know exactly who he is," said Blanche, "for he and his sister were on the. steamer, and Cyril found out all - about them. He is Boniface, the music -shop man." Frithiof was saved a reply, for just then they reached their des- tination, and rejoined the rest of the -party. who were clustered to- gether on the frill -side enjoying a most lovely view. Down below• them., sheltered by a great craggy mew:stain on the further side, lay a little lonely lake, so weird -looking, so desolate, that it was hard to be- lieve it to be within an easy walk of the town. Angry -looking clouds were beginning to gather in the sky. a purple glonm.seemed to over- spread the mountain and the• lake, and something of its gravity seemed also to have fallen upon Frithiof. He had found the first imperfection in his ideal, yet it had only serval to show him how great a power, hews strange an influence she pos- sessed over him, -Fre knew now that, for the first time in his life, he was blindly. desperately in love.

But after 'all one becomes very much accustomed to it.'' On the return walk the converse tion was more general, and though Frithiof walked beside Blanche he - said • Very little.

He was two or three inches taller, and, with an adroit spring, was able to bring down the flower In >fft_initph this tame tom..others were some little way in advance. He looked rather wistfully after Blanche, and ftncied disapproval in her erect, trim, Little figure.. "This is the Linnaea,". he ex- plained. "You will find a great deal of it about. It was the flower, you know, which Linnaeus chose to name after himself. Some say he showed his modesty in choosing so common and insignificant a plant, but it always seems to me that he showed his good taste. It is a beau- tiful flower.'z Roy Boniface thanked him heart- ily for his help. "We were hoping to find the Linnaea," he said, handing it to. his sister, while he opened a specimen tin. "What delicate little bells!" she exclaimed.- "I quite agree with you that Linnaeus 'showed his good taste." Frithiof would, probably have passed on had he not. at that mo- ment, recognized Cecil as the Eng- lish girl whom he had first accost- ed on the steamer. "Pardon me for not knowing you before," he said, raising his hat. "We met yesterday afternoon, did we nut? I hope you have had a pleasant time at Bergen ?" "Delightful, thank you. We think it the most charming town we ever saw." "Barring the rain," said Roy, "-for--which—.we--have--feelishly for gotten to reckon." "Never be parted from your um- brella is a sound axiom for this part of the world," said Frithiof, smil- ing.. "Halloo! it is coming down in good earnest. I'm afraid you will get very wet," he said, glanc- ing at Cecil's prett , : ra travel- ing -cress, "Shall we stand up for a min- ute under that porch, Roy ?" said the girl, glancing at a villa which they were just passing. "No. no," said Frithiof ; "please take _shelter kith us. My father's villa is close by, Please come." And since Cecil was genuinely glad not to get wet through. and since Roy, though he cared nothing for the rain, was glad to have a chance of seeing the inside of a Norwegian villa, they accepted the kindly offer. and followed their guide into the pretty, snag -looking house. _ Roy had heard a good deal of talk about sweetness and light, but he thought he had never realized the meaning of the words till the moment when he was ushered into that pretty Norwegian drawing. room, with its painted floor and groups of flowers, and its pink -tint- ed walls,- about which the green ivy wreathed itself picturesquely, now twining itself round some mirror picture -frame, now forming a sort of informal frieze round the whole room, its roots so cleverly hidden away in sheltered corners or on un- obtrusive brackets that the gtowth haat all the fascination of mystery.

She had taken off her hat and was flicking the rain -drops from it with her handkerchief when Frithiof introduced the two Boni - faces, and Roy, who found his novel experience a little embarrassing, was speedily set at ease byher de - courtesy. H-er bow and smile were grace it- self, and she seemed tei take the whole proceeding as a matter of course; one might have supposed that she •was in the habit of shel- tering wet tourists every day of her life. .

"They would not wait, though we tried to persuade them to. Father is going to talk over their route with them." Cecil saw a' momentary look 'of annoyance on his face; but the next minute he was talking as pleasant- ly as possible to Roy, and before long the question of routes was be- ing discussed, and as fast as Frith- iof suggested one place, Sigrid and Swanhild- mentioned others which must on no account be missed. "And you can really only spare a month for it all;" asked Sigrid. "Then I should give up going to 1 1 Christiania or Trondhjem if I were you.

FIVE CAPITAL CASES. ---Large Decrease in Yield. • =A despatch from Ottawa says: ' `A bulletin of tistical Office makes the following report on the crops and live stock of .Canada. The area sown to win - telt wheat last fall was reported as 1,097,900 acres, of which 707,200 acres were in Ontario, and 300,700 acres in Alberta. From reports of correspondents at the end of April, it is estimated that about 31.50 per cent. of this area has been winter killed, the proportion being 28.72 per cent. in Ontario, and 38.50 per cent. in Alberta. This represents '.a total deduction frorn • the area sown of about 345,000 acres (229,000 acres in Ontario and 116,000 acres in Alberta). The average condition of winter wheat on April 30 was 72.62 of a standard (71.24 per cent. in Ontario and 76.80 per cent. in .Alberta). From these figures it is calculated that the yield per acre from winter wheat in 1912 is likely to be about 20 bushels per acre, or 13 per cent. less than the average yield of the three years, 1909-11, viz., 23.33 bushels per acre, pro- vided that average conditions pre- vail between now and harvest. In the Maritime Provinces spring seeding on April 30 had only begun being still under snow. Very little progress had been made by the same date in Quebec, the amount of seeding done representing not more than about 3 or 4 per cent. In Ontario about 15 per cent. of the • total seeding was completed, but his applies chiefly to the western and southern parts of the Province. In the North-West Provinces the wet condition of the ground, cou- pled with cold weather and the small amount .of fa11 plowing com- pleted -last year, has caused seeding operations to be somewhat back- ward. In Manitoba 50.13, in Saskatche- wan 71,54, and in Alberta 61.26 per cent. of the seeding of spring wheat was completed by the end of April, and of total seeding done the per- centage proportions were Manitoba 36.63, Saskatchewan 49.30, and Al- berta 51.50. Nearly 14 per cent. of the hay and clover meadows have been win- ter killed, and their average condi- tion is represented by 74.63 for all Canada, the figures for Quebec tak- ing 50, for Ontario 80.46, for Mani- toba 88.48, for Saskatchewan 87.82, for Alberta 95.60, and for British Columbia 97.72. The report on the condition of live stock shows a high average for the Dominion, being over 90 per cent. of a standard. West of On- tario the figures exceed 90 for all descriptions of live stock. In On- tie, in Quebec. for horses and milch cows, and in Prince Edward -Island, for milch cows and other cattle, the percentage figures of condition fall below 90, the range being from 83 to 88.
