"I brought him along, Mrs. Will- jtt. Said I wouldn't let him be vburied in a. siiowdrift. Ha, ha. I say, Qhis all locks simply marvelous. iifule logs burning."

Very seasonable Iweather-rather too seasonable, I Zfear." “I l-le moved to the fire talking to gvirs. Wlllett. Ronald Garfield bur.- onholcd Violet.

"' "Oh! She's always the same — ‘sometimes she says she's better and $0ll1€Um9S she says she's worse, but 1-1 think it's all the same really. It's Th. ghastly life, you know.

She's got “five of them, you know. I'm always _-_-stroking the brutes and pretending ;j_dote upon them."

" "Mr, Duke," announced the par- lormald.

Mr. Duke was a recent arrival. Hc had bought the last of thc six bungalows iii September. He was a‘

.big man, very quiet and devoted to gardening. Mr. Rycroft who was an enthusiast on birds and who lived next door to him had taken him up, over-riding the section of thought which voiced the opinion that of course Mr. Duke was a very nice man, quitc unassuming. but was he, after nil, quite - well, quite? Miglltn't he, just possibly, be a re- tired tradesman?

But nobody liked to ask him-and indeed it was thought better not to know. Because if one did know, it might be awkward, and really in such a small community it was best to know everybody.

"Not walking to Exhampton ii». this weather?" he asked of Major Burnaby.

"No, Trevelyan will hardly expect me tonight."

"It's awful, isn't it?" acid Ilia. Wlllett with a shudder. "To be bur- ied up here, year am: your-i: must be ghastly."

Mr- Duke save her a quick glance. Major Burnably too stared at her curiously.

.But at that moment m w“ brought in.

After ted, Mrs. Willett suggested bridge.

“There are six of us. Two can cut

Ronnie's eyes brightened.

“You four start," he sugguted. “Miss Wlllett and I will cut in."

But Mr. Duke said that he did not play bridge.

Ronnie's face fell. v

“We mieht play a round same." said Mrs. Willett.

“Or table turning. or tipping," SUSBested Ronnie. “It's a spooky cv- ening. Mr. Rycroft and I were talk- ing about it this evening as wc came along here."

“I am a member of the Psychlcal Research society." explained Mr. Rycl-cft irl his precise way. "I was able to put my young friend right on one or two points."

“Tommy rot," said Major Burn- aby very distinctly.

"Ohl but it's great furl. don't you think?" said Violet Wfllett. "I mean, one doesn't believe in it or any- thing. It's lust an amusement. What do you say, Mr. Duke?"

"Anything you like, Miss Willctt."

“We must turn the lights out, and we must find a. suitable table. No- not that one, Mother. I'm sure it's much too heavy."

Things were settled at last to everyones satisfaction. A small round table with a polished topwas brought from an adjoining room. It was set in front of the fire and everyone took his place round it with the lights switched oil’.

Major Burnaby was between his hostess and Violet. 0n the other side of the girl was Ronnie Gal'- field. A cynical smile itreased the majors lips. -

There were all the usual laughs whispers, stereotyped remarks.

“The spirits are a long time)“ "Got a long way to come.“ "Hush-nothing" will happen un- less we are serious."

At last,after some time, the mur- mur of talk died away.

A silence.

A tremor ran through the polish- ed surface, The table began to rock. "Ask it questions. Who shall ask? You, Ronnie."

"Oh—er—what do I ask it?"

“Is a spirit present?" prompted Violet. “Oh! Hallo-is a spirit present?"

A sharp rook. ‘That means yes," said Violet. “Ohl er—who-are you?"

No response,

“Ask it to spell its name."

"How can it?"

"We count the number of rocks." "Oh! I see. Will you please spell your name."

The table started . rocki-ng vio- lently.

"A B C D E 11‘ Gu-i I-I say, was that I or J?"

“Ask it. Was that I?"

One rock.

“Yes. Next letter please."

The spirlifs name was Ida.

"Have you a message foranyonc here?"”

“who is it for? Miss Willctt?"

“No...

“Mrs. Willett?"

"N03.

"Mr. Rycroft?"

"No...

"my.

“Ye”.

"It's for you, Ronnie. Make it spell it out."

The table spelled “Dlsnafl

“Who's Diana? Do you know any- one called Diana?"

“No, I don't, At leost—-" "Tllere you are. Ha do!!!’

"Ask her if she's a widow?"

The fun went on. Mr. Rycroft smiled indulgently. Young people must have their jokes. I-Ic caught one glance of his hostcssts face in a flicker of the firelilht. It looked worried and abstracted. Her thoughts were somewhere for away.

Major Burnaby was thinking of the snow. It was going to mow again this evening. Hardest winter he ever remembered.

Mr, Duke was playing "F! l"- iously. The spirits. Ill-B. D5111 V"? little attention w him. All the mes- sages seemed to be for Violet and Ronnie.

Violet was told she was going to Italy, Someone was going with her. Not a woman. A man. His dame was Leonard.

More laughter. The table spelled thc name of the Imm- l1 17-11851" jumble of letters-mot in the lea-It Italian.

The usual accusations cled.

"Look hero, Violet," (Hill Will- ctt" had been crowd.) “You m shoving." '

"I'm not. Look. I tokc my 1111161 right of! the table and it tips and rocks just the some."

The crickets song is hushed in fright,

A vivid flash sweeps o'er the sky,

Deep thunder rolls, the storm is

The League has also erected forty-landmarks on sites which became famous during the fight- ing in Flanders. Each is an iron post bearing the name by which the place was known to the troops engaged. Some of the names which have become immortal, like "Sanctuary Wood" and "Kitchener Wood." have a curi- ous origin. The latter has no con-

nection with the name of the great field marshal, but is a soldier's translation of- its real

name, Bois de Cuislnier.

The former owes its strange tit‘. to the fact that ‘when, in October, 19 4, Gen. Bulfin had collected th re a number of small parties and stragglers, he issued an order that they “were in sanctuary and not to be em- ployed except b1" his instructions." The soliiers came to the natural conclusion that they we're in Sanctuary Wood.
