They had been home nut a week when
Lord Oreystoke received a message from
ids old friend D'Arnot. It was In the
form1 of a letter of Introduction brought
ty one (Jeneral Armand Jncot. Lord Grey
itoVe recalled the name as who familiar
with modern French history would not?
For Jacot was In reality the Princo do
Caarenet that Intense republican who re
filled to use. even by courtesy, a title that
had belonged to his family for 400 years.
"There. Is no place for princes In a re
public," he was wont to say.
Lord Qreystoko received tho hawk-nosed,
gray-tnustached soldier In his library, and
Iter a doten words tho two men had
formed a mutual esteem that was to en
dure through life. Tho soldier's words laid
lvldly before his host scenes and ovents
nearly two decades old.
General, then captain, Jacot of the For
eign Legion sat upon an outspread saddle
blanket at the loot of a stunted palm, His
broad shoulders and close-cropped hend
rested In luxurious case against the rough
bole, of the .tree. His long legs wcro
stretched straight before him, overlapping
the meagre .blanket; his spurs burled In tho
sandy soil of tho little desert oasis.
The captain was taking his case after
a long day of weary riding across the shlft-
ng sands 01 me uesert.

i in Y?B .'i.W.1 of. 1M that filled Cap
tain Jacot 'With the pleasurable satisfaction
of n duty woll performed. For a long, hot
gaunt month ho and his little troop had
Bcouted tho waste places of the desert In
search of a band of marauders, to the sin
stained account of whom wcro charged In
numerable thefts of camels, horses and
goats, ,as well as murders enough to have
sent tho whole unsavory gang to the guil
lotine several times over.
A week before he had come upon them.
In the ensuing battlo he had lost two of
his own men; but tho punishment Indicted
upon the marauders had been sovcro al
most to extinction. A half dozen, perhaps,
hail escaped; but the remnlnder, with tho
exception (ft tho flvo prisoners, had ex
plated their crimes before tho bullets of tho
leglonalrcs.
And, best of nil, tho ring-leader, Achmct
ben Uoudln, was among tho prisoners,
From the prisoners Captain Jacot per
mitted his mind to traverse the remaining
miles of sand to the little garrison post,
where, upon tho morrow, ho should find
awaiting him with eager wclcomo his wife
and tittle daughter.
His eyes softened to tho memory of them,
as they always did. 15ven now he could
see the beauty of the mother reflected In
the childish lines of little Jeanne's face, and
both those faces would bo smiling up Into
his, as ha swung from his tired mount late
the following afternoon. Already ho could
feel a soft cheek pressed close to each of
his velvet against leather.
His reverie was broken In upon by tho
voice of a sontrj" summoning a noncommis
sioned ofllccr. Captain Jncot raised his
eyes. Tho sun had not yet set; but the
shadows of the few trees huddled about the
water hole and of his men and tholr horses
stretched far away Into the cast across
the now golden sand.
The sentry was pointing In this direction
and the corporal, through narrowed lips,
was searching the distance.
Captain Jacot rose to his feot. He was
not a man content to see through tho eyes
of others. He must sec tor himself.
Usually ho saw things long before others
were aware that there was anything to
see a trait that had won for him tho
sobriquet of Hawk. Now ho saw, Just be
yond tho long shadows, a dozen specks ris
ing and falllng'among the sands. They dis
appeared nnd reappeared, but always they
glow larger.
Jacot recognised them Immediately. They
wero horsemen horsemen of the desert.
Already a sergeant was running toward
him, Tho entire camp was straining Its
eyes Into tho distance.
Jncot gave a few tcrsa orders to tho
sergeant, who saluted, turned upon his heel
and returned to the men. Hero ho gath
ered a dozen who saddled their horses,
mounted nnd rode out to meet the
strangers.
The remaining men disposed themselves
In rendlnoss for instant action. It was not
entirely beyond tho rango of possibilities
that tho horsemen riding thus swiftly
toward the camp might be friends of tho
prisoners bent upon the rcloasm of their
kinsmen by a sudden attack.
Jacot doubted this, however, since tho
strangers were evidently making no at
tempt to conceal their presence. They wcro
galloping rapidly toward tho camp In plain
view of all. There might be treachery lurk
ing beneath their fair appearance, but none
who knew the Hawk would be so gullible
as to hopo to tiap him thus.
The sergeant with his detail met tho
Arabs two hundred yards from tho camp.
Jacot could see him In conversation with
a tall, whlte-robcd figure evidently tho
leader of the band.
Presently tho sergeant and this Arab rodo
sldo by sldo toward camp, Jncot uwalted
them. The two reined In and dismounted
before him.

Cur) on Currants
F,' L. A. The only way to get rid .of the
curled leaves on your currant and raspberry
boshes li to pluck oft the affected leaves
anl burn them. Repetition of tho trouble
can be prevented by dipping the lenves Into
ft solution, half strength, of bordeaux mix
lure, and arsenate of lead. If you have
Mqugh bushes and shrubs to warrant the
Expense, you should get one of the spraying
devices with a nozzle specially made for
throwing a. fine spray upon the under side
of leaves. This costs n the neighborhood
ef Jl. The bordeaux-arsenate solution
comes at a quarter a can, which will make
ft Urge quantity of the solution when diluted
wjth the proper proportion of water.
for Shady Location ,
ALBEItT E. There Is no reason why
foil should not have some flowers In a win-
tow box despite the exposure. There are
toiny attractive varieties of begonias which
Jiarc fioVfers and which aro pleasing to tho
n on account of their mottled veined and
lqtohed foliage. These cost IE cents apiece
w J1.IQ a dozen. Tradeecantla or wander

this situation. The large cultivated white
"Isy. which has a finely cut, dark green
leaf like that of the chrysanthemum, will
also bloom continuously In Buch a location

Swiss Chard
A. P. Giant Lucullus Is a good variety
of the Swiss chard or spinach beet. This
can be planted In a seed bed and trans
planted or planted in the row and thinned

Big Dahlias
S. T, L. The only way to have tho gigan
tic dahlias such as the florists sell 13 to sac
rifice the number of blooms. Pinch off nil
shoots that come out of the ground except
the strongest. From this pinch oft most of
the "laterals" and all tho buds but two or
three. This wilt concentrate all the vitality
of the plant upon the perfecting of the few
blossoms. Water occasionally a bucketful
at a time and feed liberally with manure
water, made by pouring a galon of water
on flvo or six pounds of,cow or horso ma-
fnure. Dig a trench about a foot from mo
plant au arouna it - mo ui',
Into this po'ur the manure water o couple

Canada. Consequently, we will have a
wide diversity ot tastes to which to cater.
Not everybody will Vant to bo on a mad

"If they like to sight-see they can slfeht

PARIS, May 31.
There are certain Martha-like qualities
In tho Frenchwoman's calibre that one can
not help admlro. She works so hard. She
throws herself no whole-heartedly into the
numerous small economies which this war
han necessitated She has such a keen eyo
to business. All thoughts of pleasure aro
put out of her mind, nnd she only turns that
mind to tho all-absorbing quostlon of
"carrying on."
Persistently cheerful, too, Is little Madame.
Like tho proverbial good woman who Is the
delight of her household, she rises early
and works late. Opo sees her trotting down
tho street to the morning market, large
basket on arm .and a tight grip on her
purso strings.
"Mon Dleu," she cries, turning her eyes
up tragically, "but the prices this morning
are of a proportion Indeed ruinous!"
OPEN-AIR MARKETING.
The open-air stalls are pay-colored, lively
and picturesque Carts stacked with all
sorts of country produce rumble Into tho
city during the night, nnd nt dawn unload
at the stalls. Bohlnd them stand- rosy
cheeked peasant women, golden butter and
cheeses piled up, and tho air made sweet
with the perfume of cottage-garden flowers.
Tender "spring" chicken at JI.7B each dan
gle invitingly before the eyes of tho passers
by, and the fat old saleswomen call their
wares with lusty votccB.
"He Is young nnd beautiful, this charm
ing chicken, and of a stoutness truly sur
prising," you will hear them droning.
Then comes the Btrldent tones of some
little housekooper, who, though doubtless
her husband's blessing. Is yet the bane of
the market woman; "Mon Dleu, but you
deceive yourself about this chicken, you
who say that he Is young! He Is more
aged than my petit bebe that waits for
me at home I Dally I am deceived by tho
years of the so-anclent roosters which I
purchase trustingly from you! They are
of a toughness extraordinary I"
The market woman Bmlles. Does she not
know her customers through and through
and Is she not as adamant when It comes
to driving a bargain? Her Bmlle Is like
the Mona Lisa's, calm and Inscrutable. I
have often chatted with these women and
been greatly amused by their tales of ob
durate purchasers.
"Eh bien,. we know them all." they say,
"from the rich lady who dons the eo shabby
bonnet and cornea to market herself, Instead
of sendlpg her cook, so that she may buy
more cheaply, to the little 'bonne tout
falre," who must render -account for every
sou spent. They are all hard but, mon
Dleu. we have to be harder stllll"
CYPRVTHINO "UP,"
Meat, fish and poultry are all very dear In
Pari Just now. The, mistress of the house
compares her books with those of two years
ago and wrings her hands. The cook com
pares her perquisites with those before the
war and gmana over the decrease. The
butcher vows he will have- to closa his
shop unless the cattle dealer Is made to sell
his cattle at reasonable prices, and the
baker Is Impervious to complaints about
broad that will not keep for 21 hours.
Asparagus Is 12 cents a pound. Straw
berries cpst 80 cents for ,a small basket
Butter Is 75 cents a pound. Fish Is so
expensive' that the economical Parlslenne
hag discarded it entirely from her menu.
Flower marketg have so few customers
that most of them havo ceased to exist. I
see many of the school children gathering
wild flowers In the meadows around Paris,

larger florists who retail them at low fig
ures. Tho pinch of war Is being felt very much
by tho dressmakers, both largo and small.
Many of them aro already ruined, othera
just struggle along, and their problems ln
creaso every day.
"Life Is Indeed perplexing and becomes
of a difficulty very hard to solve," Bald tho
head of a small dressmaking establishment
on tho Rue de Rlvoll ; "It Is hard to got
good workwomen. They prefer to go to the
big houses or live on their government al
lowance. Our rent must bo paid, or, falling
that. It mounts up Into Incredible sums for
future payment. We must pay cash for
every yard of material we buy."
"But you have notices on your walls that
all customers must pay cash down 7" I
began.
"Ah, mon Dleu, you do not understand 1"
cried little madame dramatically. "We
dare not nek our best customers to ob
serves these rules. Perhaps they, too, aro as
badly hit by the war as wo aro. If we
asked for Immediate payment, then the
gown or costume would perhaps not be
ordered at all, and we should lose not only
our orders but our customers. And Indeed,
customers of nny Bort are of a rareness
these Bad daya I"
Later on I chatted with the head of a
larger establishment In the Rue de la Palx.
"Want of materials and want of men,"
was his complaint. The beautiful pale gray
salons were empty,
"And want of customers too," he added.
"I have had to relinquish exactly three
fourths of my former staff. Each day It
seems to ma that I must close my shop,
But Indeed I am envious of the younger
men who aro able to fight. Theirs Is the
only life worth living nowadays 1"
It seems to me that the women of Parts
have struck an even more economical note
In their apparel than was obvious last
summer. 1
"It la better to economize In the toilette
than (n the stomach," philosophically de
clared a dark-eyed little dressmaker In tho
midst of her lamentations about departed
customers, "and I cannot blame the women
for refusing to buy new clothes. Eh blen,
there are perhaps a few who follow the new
freaks and fancies, and who spend money
luviamy. ineao are wie irresponsioie ones
who will be extravagant to the end of the
chapter. But the majority of the Paris
lennes are careful, and most truly
economize I"
