A FAMILY FAILING.
from the Boston Herald
CIIAPJXR VI.
The days went by and Tom Churchill
found it more mod wore difficult to come
to »n understanding with Mr D. btvu. The
poor father itemed to be content ut fleeing
what good terms the cousins were cn to
gether, and to take it for granted that all
vu going as at once desired and dieidtd.
Nothing less urgent than Mr. DoHo&’i
kttere describing the well-nigh desperate
itsteof his health would have iedaccd the
head of the firm of Chimin li liras, to ab-
wot himself ju«t thru from Msncho.fer.
Itwrmei to him that he mis*, heravsy to
be g ing about .lay atur day looking at
“or the carriage will get to Clarens first,
and we shall be disgraced forever1” And
she led the way, singing a few bars of a
march, si ng the sunshiny road between
the reddening vineyards and the resplen>
deni waters of the fake.
“The grapes are nearly ripe, Tom,” she
said, as her cousin came up with her;
“»oon it will be the vintage, and then, be
fore another vintage ”
“And iliern?” Tom asked, as she paused
“And then—and then—oh!”—laughing
but with a tremor too in her sweet voice-,

“Whs at you look upon him as an intsr-

And il laughing, “you will admit that

isgMinduslriouaiy of late.”

Fiismr to want anything beyond it! Mr.
Askstn”—turning to Roland, who was fol
lowing the cousins silently—“whst sre you
thinkirg about *o morosely, pray? Are
you regretting already that you have con
sented to walk with us to the Botqcet de
Julie, when vou might have been sicoking
that dreadful black meerschaum of yours
on some mountain top or other to which
my voice could not reach?”
“One makes such sacrifices to friend
ship*,” said Roland solemnly, as he ronwd
himself with an effort from bis brown
study.
“Oh, Bomston smesublime! Generous
friend!” cried Amoret, clasping her hands
in a pretty ecstasy.
Roland looked at her surprised.
•‘What do you know about Bomston?”
he asked,ao sharply that Amoret in her
turn regarded him with startled eves.
"Why should not I read about nis sub
lime iordship as well as you?” she said
carelesalv.
RJand flashed.
“You don’e mean to say,” he answered
quietly, “that yo i ha.e tfeee so?”
“Aail pray, why not?”—making an ini-
p rt ‘aent little grimace. Bat Roland would
not smile.
; Tt is no laughing matter,” he declared
hotiy. “How on earth did you come by
»U£L i book*”
“Gome by it,” echoed Amoret indignant-
-lv.“I did not coma br it—it wu givos to
il”
Tom looked and paw only a woman and
a bird nee: and again he sighed.
“You want A*kam here to apnreciite
all that.” he ssid gently. “The Manches
ter smoked has blinded mv eves to such
fanciful aights.I sm afraid/’
“Ob, Mr. Askam!” returned Amoret,
with her chin in the air, “You and lean
do very well without him. See here we
are at Clarens already! The carriage is
turning tip that street ! Oh. what a de
lightful hilly, irregular oh! street it is!
Now I know we are really in Hwitxerland,
and not in St. John’s Wood!”
Tom waa contented to watch the girl’s
eager face, since he found it impossible to
share her enthusiasm. An artist had set
up his easel inash&dy coracr.under a great
lime tree, the leaves of which were drop
ping slowly in the still air. Ho was sketch
ing the oldest of the houses, Amoret saw
dealing a glance as she paired by under
the mounUin a h trers, bright with their
s cariet berries Then, cf conrw, she must
stop and speak to the children and make
Tom empty his pcckcts of all the small
coins they contained, so that, when st last,
they climbed the hill sed reached the
open mountain side, leaving pretty Clarens
below them hidden in its bosky foliage,
they found thecarriage waiting for them in
the shade of a wide-spreading Spanish
chestnut, and Mr. Dobson wondrring .anx
iously what had become of th^nc.
“My darling,” he cried as Amoret ap
peared at last, Hushed and rmiling, and ran
up to give him a kits, “are you aur* vou
are noi tired—or warm? Hadn’t you bet
ter get in now! There is still some dis
tance to go, and the sun is very hot.”
But Amoret declsred tragically that she
would rather faint by the roadside than
give in. £be had said that ahe would
walk to the Bosquet de Julie and walk she
would.
“And how can anyone”—with a pretty
disdainful glance at llo'.aud iu the car
nage—“be tired on such a day and in such
a scene.
Roland made no reply, and the girl
looked at him again, surprised.
“He is angry,” she said to herself. * “He
is really angry—and about such a little
thing! I thought men were more sensible
than girls, and yet—”
8h« stood for some momenta after the
tarriage had started again as if lost in
thought. Tom waited »ilently until sho
should care to apeak. Perhsps it would be
their last day together; »very day he told
bimsalf so, but still he did not go.
At least that hour was his; no one could
rob him of It. The peaceful hush of after
noon had fallen upon all that mightv world
of mountain peaks and gorges, of leaping
torrents, of floating cloud wreaths, of snow
hliroin! • I r-» r- lug liu r nn«l higher,

But in another moment Amoret turmd
with a sigh and a smile, and, patsing her

“Good hewers! By whom? Who cm
possibly have giren you such a book?”
“Ilush 1” cried the girl sharply, as Tom
attracted by the squabble, looked round.
“There is pipa ilgualling lo us!”— a turn
io the leafy road brought them in flight of
the carriage again. “He is afraid that 1

to redeem my character in Mr. ChuehiJl’s j !ng demurely to Roland—“will you go on

“Who wa* Julie, Mr. Cadogan," asked
Amoret. turning to the convalescent as he
hy hack in his chair, and his straw hat
tilted over his nose, “and why is the Bos
quet called after her?”
“Julie?” repeated Cadogan drowsily—

“Uh, it does him good!’’ Amoret declar
ed with a laugh. “He is in a had temper
to-day. He of:en is of late!” The cousins
walked on in silence for some minutes.
Roland, having overtaken the carrh.ge,
had evidently accepted Mr. Dobson's ofler
of a lift, for they saw him jump in and
take one of the vacant seats,
“So much the better!” declared Amoret
her face flushing. “He can preach to pa-
pa and to Mr. Cadogan instead of to rne.

Mr. Churchill, looking wistfully from

so many allusions and little words iu

slipped her hand affectionately under his

“I suppose so”—dubiously—“if they

“Perhaps it is only the corner of a street

near Clarens now, and Amoret pointed to
Ian old hon*e with peaked ana red-tijed

golden leaves were fluttering. "Look, Tom.

standing empty, the gsntlemen having
proceeded to the Bosquet on foot, the
driver exnlainod.
“It is closo at hand." he added; “mad-
emoiacllo has but to follow tho path.”
And so, passing along the shaded alley,
tho cousins found themselves on a sunny

Mr. Dobson and Cadogan were lying
luxuriously on a bank at a safe distance
from a picturesque clump af cnarlod ap-

three men had climbed to shako the ap
ples down on to tho grass, which was
thickly carpeted with tho faint lilac
flowers and thodelicato semi-transparent
white stalks of tho autumn crocus,
Tho men were laughing over their
work, land occasionally pelting each
other with an anplo or two. Tho voices
echoed pleasantly in tho sweet sunny

"My dear Miss Dobson.” said Cadogan,

evidently good, but ho douLilctt did os
much dnrnago to hie mate as to her

The battle finally terminated, I am
gUd to say. in favor of the r.giiiful owner
of tho nest, nnd the pirate was driven
off. After the smokeof battle had cleared
away it was laughable to see the Behav

"D. in’t we clean out that old pirate in

Tl.e young rand wasps, when hatched
out os grubs, can eat only living food.
The problem, then, for the mother wasp,
is to store her panlnr with living insects,
upon which her children may feed. At
