JOHN A KIPP, Auditor. Mllford, Pu., Jan. 13th, UK. The Awakening By MART F. HURLEY. The quiet of the almost empty car, the hour's ride ahead of her and the Impossibility to read either ni silna or newspaper caused Edith Randall to realise all tbe sadness of her mission. Only the day before the lawyer had notified her that her husband had said that everything was at her disposal and that she was at liberty to co to their old home and choose the. things she wished to have; that he wanted her to hare the custody of little Donald and that if she de sired her freedom he would not stand In her. way. The letter weighed heavily on her mind and she had spent a most uncomfortable, sleep less night. How queer It seemed that she and Jim had to communicate with each other through a third par. ty; that they were expected to be strangers henceforth! "The fact la," Jim had said, bit terly, "married life is too everyday. We . were Intoxicated with youth. Edith, and " "With love," she had Interrupted. "Stlil there are memories that hall never regret; memories of what t thought you were, Jim, and of the exciting Joy of keeping up to what you thought I was." "And this is the end!" he had said with a bitter sneer. "Well, others have, made the earns mistake." A dry sob tn her throat. How much easier It would be to rectify It if they did not have the boy the boy who was so fond of his father! That morning at breakfast when she had thoughtlessly mentioned that she was going home for a few hours, bow he bad pleaded to go, too. All excitement, with his little arms about her neck, he had said: "Please take me, mamma. Please, please do! I want to see my papa and play with my Are engine!" She had talked to him and petted him, trying to invent reasons that his six-year-old mind could grasp, for his not seeing his father and for Lhelr staying away from borne so long. It seemed aa though years had passed since that morning when he and Donald had left home. The days had never crept so slowly tn all her life, even when she and Jim were on the "outs." Jim! She kept for getting that she must blot bis name from her mind and heart. She bad not known bow deeply It was en' graven there. As she walked up the path that led to the house she was struck with the air of desolation and neglect that pervaded tbe place. The walks and lawn were strewn with dead leaves and a "For Sale" notice was nailed on the front plaxza. Slowly she went up the steps, and with a heavy heart unlocked the door. The Whole house was upset. Furniture was standing everywhere but In tbe right place, carpets were rolled up, and large boxes blocked the hallway. What a strange feeling to know that she was the cause of all this confusion; that but for her the house would be the picture of order and content. She looked at the arm chair In which Jim used to sit with little Donald on his knee. How tired he used to be after his long ride from the city each night, still he had never complained nor suggested mov ing to the city. Why? Because she preferred a country borne. Oh, yes I He was good to her sometimes. In the nursery she broke down completely. There was Donald's treasured lire engine, the last toy that his father had brought for him, and scattered about the floor were the blocks and other little playthings that Jim never missed bringing home at the end of the week. How Don ald use to look forward to Saturday night, for bis father never came home empty handed that evening. Feeling like a child that has lost its way, she went slowly to her own little sitting room, where, when Don' aid was younger, she used to sew or write while he had bis nap. Aa aha put her hand on the knob she thought she heard a noise within. "Jim!" The motionless figure sitting at her desk, wltb bowed head, did not move. "Jim!'' she repeated going nearer and noting with a pang 'he tinge of gray about his temples. "I didn't think you cared. Jim." "How I have missed you, Edith! he said turning a hagrard face to hers, and ot aeemlng at 'all sur prised at her preaeaoe. Bhe longed to aay, "I missed you. too, Jim. nut Instead she said: "Did you really miss me. or was It my care and your comfort?" "You. Edith," he answered so sla cerely and convincingly that she could not doubt him. "I want my wife, my boy and my home," he continued going towards her, pleadingly. "And I want my husband." she re plied, yielding to his embrace. "We made a mistake, dear, when we thought that we weren't suited to each other." be said looking at he with the old, tender light In his eye. "And Donald all! never have a rbance to reproach me or aay that 1 v.as not a pool mother," she ans vcreJ. radlan,l; happy. Boston rost.

At tbe reservoir at Saddleback Fond recently at Rangely, Me., beav ers' work la dam construction was found to Interfere with the flitter supply frosa Saddleback stream. These busy agiaeera bad construct ed a tight dam which had retained considerable jf the supply of the mountain reservoir, and workmen each day tore Out their work only to find It rebuilt on their next visit. Good ataed tree sections had been hauled la and placed In tbe dam ky the beavers. After several de structions of the beaver's dams there was again found to be a stoppage In the aapply of water through the main pipes. The dam had not been rebuilt, but on dose investigation It was foend that these eunnlpg engl aeers la revenge apparently had built a dense screen across the strainer, which had prevented the flow ef water through the main pipe.
