Oar readers # will find in A Heart of QoU" a sympathetic and graceful little lo^e-sfeory wath a somewhat, unusual olimax. (OEHmifCED FROM YESTERDAY.) II. There wBtS a dull. grey sky overhead when the immortal Black Watch marched out of Edinburgh Castle next morning. With tartans fluttering in the light breeze, I headed by the pipe-major, the pipers caine four abreast, playing tne stirring strains of Soot-land Yet." Outside the castle gates were little knots of people who had braved tne early morning hour to s.peed the brave Highlanders, who, during their sojourn at the castle, had strengthened the ties of good feeling which! were universally expressed towards the gal-1 larit oorps. A Scottish cheer. full and deep, roee and foil. echoing far over the Galtcm Hill, andi, brea-king on the silver waiters of the Firth of Forth. The pipe tune changed to Hiel,an' Laddie," and here and there above the pipers' skirt oame from Scottish throats, "Will ye no come back again?" as relatives and, friends clasped hands with their dear ones as the Rtetck Watchmen, their bonneted heads held high, their white-gaitered feet keeping time to the pipers' skirl, marched out through the barrack gates. Kiks swung side by side in rhyme, and the proud array of brooches gleamed fitfully on the shoulder plaids of tile Scotch laddies, as they marched down the Princes Street en route for the station. Among those who had seen the departing troopo within the castle was Marie Douglas. My bonnie darling." cried Alistair, fondly, I did not expect to see you, really, on Account of the earliness of the hour." I had to c,,me. Alistair. I promised, you know, and I persuaded Aunt Annie to accom- pany me. Alistair Gordon took the elder lady's hand in a warm clasp, as he cried:- Mrs. Maitland, how can I thank you?" "Don't try. laddie." she returned, gaily. -It isn't likely I'd let you go myself without fckjding you good-bye. It's awfully good of you, though," he •aid, a strange wistinlness creeping into his voice; then added, in a lower tone, Mrs. 3fadtland, cannot you give me a gleam of hope?" j Trust in Providence, and bide a wee, laddie. AH will eome right presently." I wish I could think so," he said, moodily. '■ You're not going to tell me you're a Gordon and a Black Watchman, and canna trust and wait?" laughed Mr3. Maitland. "-No, no; I've known you since you were a. wee laddie, and I ken you're made of different stuff than that. You'll be coming back with a. bit more goid lace on your coat in no time. Though it's bonnie enough you look now, I'm thinking, in all your war paint." There's many an aohing heart under thej, auld tartan to-day, for all the glamour and i the glory. Mine, for one," he responded, with a dreary laugh. You're wanted on the square, sir." It tras Alistair's orderly who spoke, standing pttttty at salute. Very well, Maophiail, I'll come." The man retreated, and Alistair knew that da greatest of all mom-edits had arrived for him. the moment which meant parting from the one who was all in all to him, and whom he mig-ht never see again. ( Marie, ber soft cheek pressed against t rich folds of his plaid, strove bravely to stifle her sobbing, and to whisper instead words of encouragement which she knew were sorely needed by the one who, at the call of the pibroch, must sally forth, and j away ayont the borders of his native land. Be brave, little girl," he whispered, i fpemtly raising the tear-stained face and taking toll of the sweet lips. Good-bye, my darling, my little Marie, my loved one. God I watoh between me and thee when we are j absent one from the other." One swift embrace from hearts too full for Jpeech, one last passionate kiss, to Alistair the seal of their love troth, to Marie an 4bternal farewell, and Alistair Gordon hurried out on the square as the last company of 5 moldiers fell into line. i One of the finest sights in the world is to oee a kilted regiment on the march, and so thought Mrs. Maitland as. with Marie by her fide, she looked down from the castle bzttle- Vtents at the bonnie lads assembled below. "Quick maroh!" The colonel's voice roee clear and com- Branding above the tumult, and in response i the battalion moved forward as one man. The tramp of feet sounded farther and farther away. The skirl of the pipes came fainter and fainter on the morning air. They had gone. the gallant Highlanders, and with j thtv Alistair Gordon, for whom already in Marie's heart a cry was awakening. Lieutenant Gordon." Sir Ricbard Geary." Such was the greeting between the two men as Alistair stepped briskly on to the platform with his company. Can I have a few moments alone with you, Mr. Gordon?" I'm afraid not; what you have to say must be said here. It is, as you must admit, hardly a tinne for private conversation," was the cold reply. The baronet was piqued, but when he spoke again his voice was as cheery as ever. I have come purposely to see you, Mr. Gordon. As man to man. will you answer me one or two questions?" The young officer'gt lips curled ever so tlightly under his well-trimmed moustache. His voice, carrying a mote of intensity with it. sounded strange in the ears of Sir Richard, wbo, in his heart of hearts, had a very kindly feeling towards the popular lieutenant. "That. Sir Richard, depends on the sub- ject." Sir Richard hesitated, but the entraining was rapidly being pushed forward, and soon Lieutenant Gordon, with no knowledge of -what was in Sir Richard's heart, would be whirling away southwards. You love Miss Douglaa, and the dearest wieh of your heart is to make her your wite?" Sir Richard asked, with British bluntness. Alistair flushed, and his bonneted head, if possible, went a shade higher as he answered, x frith a careless smile: "Since you have so accurately guessed the state of my feelings towards Mias Douglas, there is no need for us to discuss the matter further. It might only lead to unpleasant complications. Sir Richard winced. To be taken down by this cool, youthful Scotsman was a little galling. To be treated with such utter dis- Tegn-rd was new to him. bnt to pursue the subject further would most likely not improve matters. And, in point of fact, AlistaiT's words bad declared it at an end M far as ne was concerned. Under the circumstances, then, T will say good-bye and God speed," he said, stretching out his hand as he spoke- The two rivals clasped hands, the single 'WOro.goood,.by.&.aIliDg hard amd metallic fmom Aiisiairs get lips. The baronet raised his golAnounted cane by way of salute as he moved away, the soldier returning it with .military precision. Then, his face white arnd set, he slipped swiftly into the compartnfent. Marie sat in her charming blue and white boudoir at Douglas House, looking listlessly at the flashing gems lying on her lap. Diamonds and sapphires, rubies and pearls all l-»y in one brilliant, mass, aa she bad emptied them carelessly fro-m their cases. Suddemily she gathered them up in the skirt of her drees, and crossing over to the window, drew up the blind with a jerk. Then, sitting down before the casement, her beautiful eyes strayed rest- lessly to the grim outlines of the fine old catstle, lifted like ")me weird monster against the heavens, which look almost blue in the intemeness of the moonlight. Once a?ain she was within its grey walls, once again she was pressed against a manly breast, and an eager voice whispered undying love. It was but a dream how, a beautiful dream which bad lost its reality in a cruel silence which had followed it. "Twelve months," Marie said to herself, softly, twelve months to-day since AILstarr went a-way. Only a year, yet to me it has been an eternity. Oh, Alistair, my love, your I cruelty has broken my heart. I thought you loved me, but it was only a. foolish dream, and in three days I shall be a bride. I shall vow before God's aka-r to love, honour, and obey—ail the time knowing I have no love to give. For it is yours, my beloved, and will, be until I die." With the air of one who has taated the cup of happiness and then seen it dahed ruth- less?y from the lips, Marie gathered up the a<M.rkIin? gems, which had fa'?n unheeded to the n<Mr, makm? no sound as they fdl on the thkk velvet pile carpet. &ad, walking to I the inlaid secretaire, she laid them upon it, then, taking a key. unlocked one of the drawers and drew out a slip of paper and a small box. With trembling fingers she raised the lid and gazed at the contents—only a spray of ivy clasped within a brooch bearing the solitary wor-l Bydand," and by its side a. companion spray, which t-old of Gordon's broken vow. Twelve months before it had been a, thing of treasure lying pressed over a soldier's heart. Six months Later it was brought to Marie from a far-off foreign station, and with it a. few scrawled, unsigned lines, tell- ing how the writer had regretted the vow so thoughtlessly made before leaving the far- off northern city, and with a heart-broken cry Marie had laid them—the emblems of her !ove tooth and Alistair Gordon's—side by sida- and locked them away. They were but the relics of days unmarred by mistrust in human faith. Marie touched the bell, which was answered by her maid. I shall not come down to-night, Annie," she said. "Tell my father I have a bad Headache, and I think I shall go to bed." The maid started at the deadly p-allor of her young mistress's face. "Are you ill, Miss Marie?" she inquired, anxiously. No. Anr.ie, I am not ill, only very, very miserable," the tears welling up into her eyes ao she spoke. "Y on c,an go now," she added. I wi?h to be alone, and you need not come in Again to-pi gilt; I can manage quite well myself." e l f The maid withdrew quietly. On the corri- dor she met Sir Ri-eh-ard Geary. -R-he" is Misa Douglas?" he awaked. kindly. "Is she not coming down?" Miss Marie is in her room, sir. She wished me to tell the master she had a headache, and would not come down to- night." Sir Richard thanked her, and passed on, pausing as he reached Marie's door. Marie, my child, you shall be bal-,py yet," he breathed softly. You shall marry the one you love. God helping me, darling, you shall." A vision of a stalwart figure, a pair of dark eyes in which the love-light glittered, a broad shoulder with a Gordon plaid thrown carelessly across, and II. young girl, dark- haired, with long lashes veiling a pair of eortlPul eyes, looking up into the earnest face of her lover, ru--o before his mental gare The vision was the plighting of the love troth between Alistair Gordon and Marie Douglas at Kelvin brae, where Sir Richard and the gay young Highlander had been her father's guesti many months before. Sir Richard had been an unseen spectator of the little affair, anal now it rose up in strong force before him. His heart told him, with a pang of anguish, that such love as he re>ul between them then would live and live for ever. He dragged himself wearily down the great staircase into the- hall, startling, the footman with his ghastly face. But Sir Richard's resolve was made, and without a word he pafesed out into the night. John Douglas, coming suddenly from the dining-room, caught a glimpse of a dazed. agonised fa^e. and a strange foreboding of coming evil flashed before him as he re-tra-ced his steps to make the most feasible sugges- tion for the unwonted absence of Sir Richard Geary, the prospective bridegroom.

Passing Pleasantries. I Mary: Did she make a good match? Ann: Splendid! Lot's o€ money, good social posi- tion, and all that! In fact, the oniy draw- back is the husband. I wish I owned an aeroplane instead of a motor-car." "Why?" "I could then look at I my neighbours without feeling that every one of them was wishing that I would take him for a ride." "e yotsr neighbour as yourself," said the minister, with great earnestness. "ThomaÆ," whispered the lady to her hus- band, who lived next door to a pretty young widow, "oome away; this is no pliaoe for you." Squire: I beard you are getting the pen- sion, Pat? "Yes." "A crown. I suppose?" "No, sir; I got two." "How is that?" "Well. sir. I got one on my head and the other in my hand." Old JAidy: I should like a ticket for the train? Ticket Collector fwho thinks he will make a yeg'ul will you go in the passenger train or in, the cattle train? Lady: Well, if yoa are a. specimen of what I shjMl find in the passenger train, give me a. ticket for the cattle train, by all means. L I Short: I thought, you were going todrown tb" cat ? Long: Well, they say a oat has nine lives, but this one has twenty, I think. Why, I actually put that.oat into a tab of wtater and I tied ia brick round its neck; and what do you think? Short: Goodness knows. Long: Well, this morning when I went to look at the tub the cat had swallowed all the water and was sitting on the brick. The scene was a gambling saloon in Paris; a game of ecarte had just been played. The two players got up, and one of them stepped close to the other. "Sir!" "What do you want?" "r saw you cheat just now." "Sir!" "I am sure of it." "You mean to ruin me?" "Quite the contrary; I want you to take me into partnerghip," A soldier belonging to one of out infantry regiments was one- day recently detailed by the regimental sergeant-major for duty as colonel's orderly. Accordingly next morning at nine o'clock the mam walked upstairs to I the colonel's room, where his chief was just about to have his breakfast. Finding, the door a little way open, the man entered without knocking, exclaiming a.t the same time to the colonel, "I am your j orderly today, sir.' The ookmel. taken by surprise, lectured the moo severely for coming to his quarters I in such a rude manner, and said he would explain to tbe soldier his duties as orderly. He then told the man to take his (the ¡ colonel's) seat for a. tew minutes, and walked out of the TOOM eloeing the door after him. Presently he returned and knocked at the door. "Who goes th«re?" shouted the soldier. "Your orderly, sir," replied the colonel. "Then &top there until I have finished my breakfast," replied the man. "I can't attend to you now."

Da,vias and Bowen were appointed. On the proposition of Mr. W. Davies Messrs. T. J. Matthews, W. Price, and A. E. Meredith were selected overseers. Mr J. G. Broackes said that the council never had any report from the overseers. Mr. Matthews reported that for the year a reduc- tion of £ 6,000 in the assessment had taken pla.ce. This was a very serious matter, but they would be compensated to some extent by the fact that cottage properties had increased by about f,1,800, which in round figures meant a 2d. rate. The council would have to be very careful in expenditure this year.

For Women Folk. I HOMELY WWTS AND DAINTY DISHES Bacon may be preserved in wood ashes or in very dry sand. Hot dripping must never be poured into a ■vessel containing cold dripping, or it will tarn tausty in a very short time. The MANbt safe should be hung in a 0001, airy pkioe. It must have hooks so that mealt. can hang; it quickly taints if laid on a dish. If new gloves are placed between the folds of a damp towel for an hour before being worn, they are much easier to put on. The dammp oan-ges the kid to become more pliable, so that they will stretch to the required shaipe without oracking or splitting. Egg Sauce Fujt 2oz. of btttt<er in a, srmaiii ttaiea saMce- pan, mvedt it, and then stir in a tafelespooiitful of flour until a srnoctlh paste, add half a pint of milk, season with pepper alnd salt. Keep Et,r,mng over a plow fire until it boils and tfcrokene. Just before serving add two hard-hoiled eggs, chopped smaJl, and the joice of a. strained lemon. Serve very hot-, and send a dish of nicely-mashed potaitoea with fit. Mangle Rollers. When a roller of the wringer nas oeoorme very nruch worn in the centre, so that the wood -comes -off on the clothes, take a piece of white flannel, about half a yafrd wide and one yard. long, and roll round the roller. Keep very tight until all is rolled rrvund. Take a. needle and linen thread and stitch it across firniay.1 Ihis is easily done, a;nd the roller will last for a few more years. To Cure Pork I A moderate temperature is best for bacon cu.ring. If the weather i-s muggy the pork spoils before the pickle has time to act on it, and if cold the pork aetf too soon and stiff to allow- the salt to penetra.te The curing should bo done by rubbing well the belly of pork with a mixture of 41b. salt, lib. sugar, and 2Joz. of saltpetre. The sugar prevents hardness, imparts-a nice flavor, and is a good antiseptic. It Should then be laid in a, tub. or any other suitable vessel, witih the skin side down, so that the liquor may drain away, for, if permitted to aink into the bacon it imparts a strong rusty flavor. Cover the fleshy part with the dry salt mixture, which should be changed every thiee days. After lying eight or ten days in salt, take out and ha.ng up in a dry and air- position, to drip( drain, dry, and haiNien" after which it will keep good any reasonable length of time in a, proper situation. -Boiled Loin of Mutton. I Hang 61b. of toin till tender, bone it, and I sprinkle over it half a teaspoonful of pepper, quarter of a teaspoonful of pounded allspice, quarter of a. teaspoonful of mace, quarter of a. teaspoonful nutmeg, six cloves pounded fine with the others. Let it remain for a day, then make a foroemeat as follows:- Cover the IDeaJt with it, and roll and bind up firmly. Hiailf bake it in a slow oven, let it get oool, take off the fatt, and put the gravy in a stew-pan. Flour the meat, put it in the gravy, and stew it perfectly tender. Now take the meait, unbind it, add to the gravy one glass of port, and two tableepoon- fulis of mush-room ketchup. Give one boil, and pour over the meat. A few mushrooms can be' stewed in gravy if liked and served round dish. To maike the foroemeat: 2oz. of ham or lean bacon, ilb. of suet, the rind of half a lemon, one teaspoonful of parsley, one teaspoonful of mixed herbs, 6oz. of bread- crumbs, two eggs, pepper, salt, and a pinch of pounded mace. Mix all the above, and after they have been all thoroughly pounded with tihe eggs the forcemeat is ready.

DOWLAIS UP IN ARMS. I OVERHEAD WIRES FOR ELECTRIC LIGHTING. Mr. A. P. Trotter (Board of Trade) held an inquiry at the Bush Hotel, Dowlais, on Thurs- day into the application by the Merthyr Electric Traction and Lighting Company for consent to light certain streets in Dowlais by means of overhead wires. The company were represented by Mr. F. S. Simons, their solicitor, and others. Mr. D. W. Jones opposed on behalf of the Dowlais Chamber of Trade and other ratepayers, who had signed peti- tions containing 227 signatures, the ground of objection being that the overhead wires in congested streets would be dangerous, unsightly, and obstructive to traffic. Mr. T. Aneuryn Rees, the town-clerk; Mr. J. E. Biddle, deputy-town-clerk, and Mr. T. F. Harvey, the borough engineer and surveyor, were present. The Inspector explained that the Merthyr Corporation had given their consent to the scheme. Mr. Thomas Lloyd, electrical engineer at the Dowlais Works, said that Messrs. Guest, Keen, and Nettlefolds had had to alter an overhead system of electric lighting into an underground system, it having been found that, so far as overhead wires were con- oerned, the atmospheric conditions of Dow- lais were very bad in regard to corrosion and oxidisation. The Rev. LI- M. Williams, rector of Dowlais, said it would be a serious matter for poles to be fixed in such narrow streets as George- street. Mr. John Griffith Rees, a past president of the Dowlaie Chamber of Trade and this year's president of the Federated Chambers of Trade, declared that 95 per cent. of the inhabitants of Dowlais were against over- head wires. The Ihsipeotor said that a good deal of the objections which had been raised had evi- dently been put forward from want of know- ledge. I The Inspector notified that he would sub- mit his report to the Board of Trade in due course.

CARDIFF DOCKS MYSTERY. I Information was given to' the Cardiff Docks police on Thursday morning to the effect that Charles Krum, steward of the steamship Harvey Scott, lying on the west side of the East Dock, had been missing since Tuesday. Krum, who was a native of Nor- way, and whose home was at 53. Coronation- street, North Shields, went on shore on Tues- day evening. Between eleven and twelve one of the crew, hearing" someone hailing the ship, which was at the time some distance from the quay, immediately put out to the quay in a boat, but failed to see anyone. The dock police proceeded to grapple for the body, which was recovered about noon. It has since been identified as that of the steward. Deceased was aged 42. DANGER AT THE DOCKS. I Mr. W. L. Yorath held an inquest on the body in the evening. Mr. P. K. Ross, the captain of the boat, said the docks were rather dangerous at night, and it was easy for a sober person to step into the water as the water had a coatr ing of coal-dust. The docks were the most dangerous he had seen in his travels over the world. There was no protection, and he sug- gested that there might be Better lighting. The Coroner sa id it seemed im practicable to put ohains round the edge. A Terdiot of Found drowned" was returned.
