Lambert.
1 didn’t," denied Mrs. Beamish.
It Might Have Been.
•You and I were happy,” went on The
Winp's Master, “till Beamish came along
~,.1 you got taken with h|m. I can’t
forget you, Betty, and what might have
happened. Don't you ever remember,
Betty, before you was a great lady?"
The air of the woman was kinder than
it had been for some time to Tom.
"I'm not a great lady, Tom,” she said,
gently for one of her vigorous personality.
•I'm a poor relation, though Lord Bev
erley doesn’t treat me like one—but I
iml I’m Lady Di’s companion, and dis
tant cousin by marriage. I’m sort of fe
maiie major-domo of the household —and
I'm very happy. Tom. I’m not a snob,
but I've got to remember that I’m the
Honorable Mrs. Beamish —that I’m Lord
Beverley’s cousin by marriage—that he
looks upon me as one of the family—that
I mustn’t disgrace it by—by—”
“Thinking of the likes of me,” said
Tom sadly. "All you think of is that
you’ve married into a noble family—not
that you came out of—of —a —h’m —”
"Out of a shop. Oh, you needn’t mind
saying it. I’m not ashamed of it.”
"Why should you be?” went on Lam
bert. ‘Ah, they don’t make shops like
that nowadays. I can se it now as if it
was yesterday, and smell it— And what
apples your mother did sell. Many's the
time she's given me one when I was a
nipper. Lord! I wish Captain Beamish
had never been quartered in our town —
never set eyes on you.”
"No Good In Hoping.”
"I made him a good wife, Tom,” said
Betty, a shade of regret in her voice.
"I ll be bound you did! But you'd have
made a better if only you hadn’t been
educated above your station. I mean
above mine. Ain't it no good my hoping,
Betty?”
A trifle sadly the Honorable Mrs. Beam
i“h smiled as she said, with an air meant
to be final:
"No good. Tom! If ever 1 feel weak I
. ke down the Peerage and look up Bev
erley Geoffrey Vandeleur Deacrolx

anil it strengthens me to do my duty in

"To which it did not please God to call
." supplemented Tom Lambert decis
ively when she hesitated.
Chapter IV.
All the morning Captain Greville Sar
toris. the cousin of Lady Diana, and
the heir to the Beverley title though
the fortune would go to the mar
•iuls' granddaughter, had led the greater
pari of the house party in an otter hunt.
Now. with the hounds that they had
'alon for their rather tame hunt in full
r’. they were pursuing a large she-otter
the hounds had started. Through the
"lien the little creature fled, followed by
the yelping pack—not that, of course,
with which Lady Diana had run, and
the party of men and women on foot with
their savage otter spears.
The animal had found its courses along
the little stream no longer in their ac
customed solitude, so now the animal
seemed to feel that there would be safety
in going toward the spots never de
serted.
In any event, she broke cover com
pletely' and made for the kennels and
stables, still, however, keeping close to
the east bank of the Bourne.
Across the stable yard the small pur
:’.i(“l object went in an effort to get far
enough away to make a dive into a deep
' I there. Over the retaining walls and
ther obstacles In their path leaped the
men of the party. Sartoris was first,
but after he had made one frenzied lunge
with his spear he realized that the otter
1 ad escaped.
" ith an exclamation of anger he buried
Is spear in the ground, and then looked
up to find the amused but more scornful
eyes of his cousin upon him.
A Scornful Beauty.
Don’t. Greville, it's horrible," ex
aimed sbe strongly, while her grand
’ather was showing the fox hounds and
Arne of his famous racing string to the
visitors.
What is?” Sartoris asked, not reallz
' g that the girl was condemning a pas
time that he regarded as sport.

Otter killing—like that—otter hunt
ing,” she answered.
"But you like fox hunting?" went on
Sartoris in the bland tones of surprise of
the Englishman of his wiry type, with
his wisp of a mustache and his weak
appearing figure, which hid considerable
skilled strength. "You like to see a drag
gled, beaten fox torn to pieces alive."
"No, I don’t,” interrupted the girl.
"But it’s done," went on the man.
“I know.” said the girl. "That’s why,
if I were a man I’d ride nothing but
steeplechases. I love a run best when the
fox gets clean away. I love a race with
neither wlnp nor spur! I love sport—and
in the best sport there’s no pain!"
It was for such speeches as that—and
actions, too —that they called Lady Diaria
"the cleanest sportswoman in all Eng
land.”
Not if you’re beaten?" questioned the
cousin.
“Not if you played fair," said the girl.
Her cousin was moved to reveal —al-
most unconsciously—some of that queer
sporting philosophy which sustained him
In the somewhat questionable practices
which were already' being commented
upon in his London clubs.
Weakness for Winning,
“I confess I have a weakness for win
ning." he said, with an air of frank
ness. "AV hatever the odds in your favor,
there is a certain pleasure in pursuit
in getting home.”
As though to give emphasis to ills
words, he drove the head of his spear
Into the ground. He raised his eyes, and.
with a start, found Myrtle Anson, the
young sister of Harry Anson. The Whip's
jockey, near him. She had come quietly
into the yard. and. as if moved by an
impulse of her budding woman's heart
that she could not entirely control, had
gone straight toward Sartoris. Lady
Diana had not seen the girl, for the back
of the marquis’ granddaughter was
turned to this more humble young woman.
For a moment Sartoris regarded the
girl, then, with a slight move of his shoul
ders, he turned away. Myrtle Anson,
seemingly cut to the heart, sank on a rock
at the edge of the stream and continued
to watch him with eyes of love.
Tins little bit of by-play had taken but
a moment,.and while it was taking place
and Sartoris was still eyeing the sister of
the jockey, she was replying to his last
observation:
"There's pleasure In getting home? On
a weak thing that can't defend itself—or
strike back?"
His Guilty Conscience.
Her words seemed to the sick con
science of Sartoris to hold a double en
tendre, and he looked sharply at his cou
sin.
“Eh?" he exclaimed, suspiciously and
expectantly. - •
But Lady Diana, who had noticed noth
ing and was but speaking of the imme
diate object before them, went on:
"I mean a weak thing like an otter. $n
sport there must be a fair chance."
It was with genuine relief that Sartoris
answered:
"I know, but I prefer lowest weight in
life's handicap—a shade of odds in my
favor, when I’m trying to win. But you
are a girl and mix sentiment with your
sporting."
The women of the house party now
claimed the attention of Lady Diana and
they called upon her to explain from her
stores of "horse wisdom" the points of
some of the racers. About them during
this time hovered the anxious marquis.
He had ordered The Whip put in a locked
box stall' and not even the most charm
ing entreaties of the fairest of his guests
could induce him to unlock the door.
With a furtive glance about him, Sar
toris walked toward Myrtle Anson, sit
ting like a lowly muse of tragedy by
the Bourne. This quick glance of Sartoris
was by no means a precaution, for he
knew that the few words that ho might
publicly exchange with the pretty sister
of the jockey would not cause any com
ment, but his act was one of Instinct.
There was something furtive and almost
sinister about tills sportsman who took
care to win when he could without caus
ing too much scandal, and his rapid sur
vey of the positions of his equals was hfs
tribute to his own caution.
"Nothing Like a Trial."
But the lirst words he spoke to the girl
W'ere ordinary enough He disliked "emo
tion and all that sort of nonsense, you
know,” and he did not often exhibit it.
"Morning. Miss Anson. Been botanizing
again?" lie asked, lifting his hat amt
pointing to a leather case she carried
slung over her shoulder.
"Yes," said the girl, In a dull monotone.
"Up on the wold?" he asked, lowering
his voice with that cautious instinct,
though there was no one to hear them.

The New Order of Things
By Beatrice Fairfax
ANEW YORK woman has formed
among working girls the "Spug,”
a society for the prevention of
useless giving at Christmas. Undoubt
edly the society will accomplish some
good in curbing those who are spend
thrifts when under the influence of the
Christmas spirit.
But the fact that such a society has
been organized, and that it was needed,
should make young girls and older
women stop and think for themselves.
Has it come to the time when no
woman van exert Iter own natural God
given common sense without first join
ing a club organized for the purpose of
sanctioning such action?
Are these the days when a woman
can not of her own will power take up
some good study and pursue it; master
the art of cooking; become a little
more economical; or smile when she is
depressed, without first joining a club
that mothers such a movement?
Will the day finally come when none
of us will be brave because we are not
members of a fear not club?
Is tlie day here when a woman will
not hang a picture on the wall till she
has first joined a make home beautiful
club and been told that pretty pictures
are given for just that purpose?
Every one should be a "Spug," if
necessary, but how much there Is to be
admired in the girl or common grown
up who conducts her little or great
finances in such a common-sense way
that membership in such an order has
never been necessary for her!
Christmases come and Christmases
go, and every Christmas there is abuse
of the one who spends foolishly and
recklessly. And every Christinas there
is more contempt for the Old Scrooges
of life. These two extremes attract such
a monopoly of attention that there is
little heed given the great, big army of
Christinas shoppers who buy in a spirit
of sanity.
They remember the needs of their
friends, and they remember, also, the
limits of their purses. They put
thought 1n their gifts, arid love, and
give not for effect or display.
They make no gifts hoping for re
turns, and this holiest of all seasons is
not degraded by them with any taint of
barter and trade.
They remember the children first of
all. And since the first Christmas, so
many centuries ago, there has been a
remembering of the homeless waifs on
this day that has steadily grown.
We wish to call your attention to the
fact that most Infectious diseases, such
as whooping cough, diphtheria and
scarlet fever, are contracted when the
cl)lld has a cold. Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy will quickly cure a cold and
greatly lessen the danger of contract
ing these diseases. This remedy Is
famous for Its cures of colds. It con
tains no opium or other narcotic and
may be given to a child with Implicit
confidence. Sold by all dealers. (Advt.)
The world would have made poor
progress If every individual effort had
depended on mutual organization. There
would be no kindness, no cheerfulness,
no patience, no charity. There would
be none of the tender graces of life if
every woman had been obsessed by tne
belief that she could not cultivate one
or all of these attributes, without first
Joining a society.
And so I say to my' girls: Don’t say,
"I can't be economical, because I have
never joined an economy club."
' Don’t feel that your education has
reached its limits because you haven't
the time to join a reading club.
Be something of yourself! Stand on
your own feet! Take the Initiative be
cause your own good common sense
tells you you should. Cultivate a lit
tle personal backbone of y-our own, and
do not get the feeling that you must be
foolish because others are foolish
Make your Christmas gifts match
your means. Be a "Spug" If you can't
buy wisely without joining a Buy Wise
ly club.
But, oh, how much more to your cred
it, my dear girl, if you can hold your
backbone erect without any such moral
support!
