Duplay was sure that Harry had formal proofs, good and valid prima facie; he would need Mina, money, and time to upset them. There were moments when the Major himself wished that he had relied on his own attractions, and not challenged Harry to battle on any issue save their respective power to win Janie Iver's affections. But it seemed too late to go back.

They seated themselves, a merry, laughing row, upon the wall; the Babson girls, Dot and Jack Marvin, Jotham, the Langham twins, Reuben Jenks, Mollie Wilson, Phoebe Small and even Sandy McLeod's little Janie, and gaily they chattered, the petals of the apple-blossoms falling about them, a perfumed shower.

The letter was simply signed "Janie" nothing more. Robert handed it back to its owner with a grave word of thanks. "How is it," he said, "that I did not hear of her leaving you before I came to Winstead? Mrs. Rumbold is supposed to give me information of anything of importance respecting the girl. I have not had a word from her." "Nor have we, although we wrote and telegraphed at once.

Fortunately Janie was possessed of good taste and while learning her trade in the city she had, whenever possible, snatched a few moments to study the best models of gowns and millinery which the great stores displayed. She had invested in all the leading fashion books and fashion plates, and her room over Barnes' store was gay with pictured figures of women and children in rainbow attire.

"There seems no way of making her happy," explained Robina. "On Thursday I went round early in the morning to help Janie pack the baskets for the picnic. It was her own idea, the picnic." "Speaking of picnics," I said. "You might have thought," went on Robina, "that she was dressing for her own funeral. She said she knew she was going to catch her death of cold, sitting on the wet grass.

Have the cowshed got ready, and buy one of those big cans on wheels." "You don't happen to want milk?" I put it to Miss Janie. "Susie seems to be good for about five gallons a day. I'm afraid if we drink it all ourselves we'll get too fat." "At twopence halfpenny a quart, delivered at the house, as much as you like," replied Miss Janie. I made a note of that also. "Happen to know a useful boy?"

Her small, pale face looked suddenly brilliant and enchanted, tilted up to meet the thunderous music that was swinging nearer and nearer. "Oh, do listen, you people! This time it's surely going to land!" Rosemary stared at her blankly. "Land? What are you talking about, Janie?" "My airplane the one that you said was the fat Hodges boy on a motorcycle!

Little by little Mary got better. The year 1891 came to an end. The bells rang in the New Year. "Soon we can go back to dear Calabar," said Mary. "Oh, how I want to get back and tell more people there about the Lord Jesus." In February, 1892, Mary and Janie sailed for Calabar. What new adventures awaited them in Africa? "Welcome home, Ma, welcome," shouted the people of Okoyong. "God bless you.

"And I suppose they'll be married as soon as they decently can. I'm glad for Janie Iver's sake not that I like him, the little I've seen of him." "We never see him," said Mrs Trumbler. "Not at church, anyhow," added Miss S. incisively. "Perhaps he'll remember what's due to his position now." "Are you sure they're engaged?" asked Mina. Miss S. looked at her with a smile. "Certain, my dear."
