Impressed by the powers Os observation shown by a boy witness - to a crime, two police officers decided that he and other 4 in his age group might be of real help to the police department, and at the same time might be kept too v busy for mischief of their own. The outgrowth of this idea Was the formation of the Junior Dietectires, now nearly ninety, who are . equipped with badges and identification cards..

She wore her boy's attire, her hair was disheveled, a smudge of dirt streaked One cheek. stood sUll just inside the door. Her lips made a sound but it was one of unpleasant surprise rather than sisterly greeting. Richard eyed her witherlngly, from head to foot. “A fine appearance you make! And what does this mean—this tavern-keeper relative of yours writing that you are here when we left you properly settled in a respectable place ... T” ' “Uncle Quint wrote you!" The girl's hand caught at the door behind her but the little shock of what Richard had revealed did not break her defiance. “Thia a respectable place, as much so as that other tavern. When Miss SouthWaite fell ill and had to return home, it wks most, proper that I should come to my uncle." “Huhl There must be a doctor; somewhere around these back* Woods! No, it was one erf your high-handed tricks, I suspect. Well, I’m here to take you to Newark, tomorrow. You’ll ride your own horse. Have ready what boxes George can pack on hts saddle—the rest of your stuff can go later. At eleven, we cross—not a moment after eleven, for I have apSlntments in Fort Erie arid along e way. And now go Ito your room or whatever privacy,'is yours in this place, and change. I’ve a gentleman friend with me and 1 don’t want to be put to shame before him. I might as Weil tell you it is important you make a good impression bn him. He’s a most eligible young bachelor and ' our parent is planning to marry you to him." “I am not going to Newark with' you!" j.' But Richard had swung back through the door. Jennet did not move. She Said it again, aloud, as if Richard were still in the room. “1 will not go.. .* When Quint returned from the yard Richard and his friend were still in the taproom. Several brandies had put Richard in a genial mood. He advanced on Quint with outstretched hand. “Ha, Uncle! We’ve been enjoying your hospitality without you here to disrnse it! Meet my friend —Sir enneth Hitchcock, of Devon, England, and visiting in New- ; ark..." Neither Quint nor the young 1 Englishman moved to shake hands. Each merely nodded to the other. “You’ve seen JennetT* Quint asked Richard.* “For a moment—looking like a stableboy! I’ve sent her to make herself presentable. 1 regret she’s put you to this trouble.

But I suggest you go on to the Buffalo village where you may find the taverns more to your liking." "Ah, no—then I’d be deprived of a visit with my heW-found aunt to which I’m looking forward! We’ll take the two rooms. Now if you’ll be so kind as to tell my man where he can stable the horses, we’ll have another glass of your surprisingly good brandy!" “Toby, serve < them," ordered Quint, curtly, and left the taproom. He went first in search of Rhoda “Richard Darby is here with a companion. They're staying the night. Tomorrow he will take Jennet to Newark with him.” "Staying hers/" Rhoda’s face reddened deeply. “We’ve nothing fitting..." “Nonsense! The poorest we have is good \ ehough for that young fop. Have Becky make the rooms ready." He went outside, then. He instructed the man where to stable the horses? He helped him with the saddles and bridles and to rub the animals down. It made an excuse not to go back to Richard and his friend in the taproom. He could not trust his self-control too long. Another Alec... In the kitchen Rhoda was moving like a wpirlwind, driving old Sarah and Becky before her. Her face still burned with humiliation and a bitter line compressed her lips. Fried ham and omelet, corncakes—to i put before these guests. To be eaten by these guests tn the kitchen! Her best cloth, the pewter service, the silver forks and knives, all were commonplace now as she set them out ' “You. Sarah, and you. Becky, when you’re not serving, and even if you’re spoken to, don’t open your mouths. They’re gentry and you're hired help." Neither were likely to—old Sarah seldom spoke and Becky's face had its frightened look. It grew more pinched when Rhoda added, with a significant look at the girl’s middle, “Put on a long apron. You’re beginning to show." But for all her mood, Rhoda appeared an hour later in the parlor, in the wine-silk dress, her braids smooth, her face composed; The two young men were walking there for her and Jennet to come. Richard got a little unsteadily to his feet, stepped up to her, took her hand. “Dear Aunt, you come tn like a queen of these parts!" He lifted her hand, kissed it. \ “Isn’t that so, Ken* I want you to meet m. friend. Sir Kenneth Hitchcock." Sir Kenneth was on his feet. He bowed to Rhoda. “You must pardon our appearance, Aunt," spid Richard. “We came on horseback—we could hot

But Quint’S face took a harder set. Thep Jennet came tn. She had dressed in her very best gown, ft White silk muslin embroidered with tiny blue flowers. She hadnot thought ever to wear it here; but she had put it on now. Narrow .blue ribbons fastened the puffs dt , sleeves above the elbows and outlined the low-cut neck. The skirt bellowed about her. She had brushed her curls to the top of her head and fastened them there with a Cirelli- of seed pearls •eh e found in one pf her boxes. “Here she is, Ken!

He had anticipated that she would refuse to join her brother and hisguest at table and here she was, decked out th finery and in a coquettish mood.

(Rev. H. J. Weltyj Missionary Church) \ “THE HEALTHY LIFE” Lu, 18:42 (A. S. V.) Receive your sighL your faith has made you well. '' i . ■ ' 1 1 \ is the account of the blind beggar who was sitting by the roadside near Jericho. As Jesus was passing by he began to cry out, "Thou Son 6f David, Miave mercy on me.” The fcry of this needy soul caused she Saviour to stop and gife him eyesight. Jesus said that it was one thing that brought this health to him and that was his faith. - ' t He had faith that would not lie, denied. There were many others in the crowd that day that sought to discourage him by rebuking him and requesting him to be silent. They would have kept him in his blfnded condition, but he knew that Jesus was able to meet his need; so he cried all the more for the Saviour to have mercy upon him. I \ : i Likewise, Satan has blinded the minds of them that believe hot, lestthe light of the gloribus gospel of Christ should shine unto them. The world has a greater need than this blind beggar for 4t is in spiritual darkness. We too heed to recognize our spiritual poverty and blindness and call upon Jeeus who is able to save. “1 know a fount where sins are washed away. 1 know a place where night is turned to day. Burdens are lifted, blind eyes made to see) There’s a wonder-working pow’r in the blood of Calvary.”
