not fall. Then he could hold out Nc
longer, No courage, no spirit, how
ever firm and unyielding, could long
withstand such an attack. Cone was
determined to finish his work. He
threw all his great weight against the
umbrella which held him away from the
man he intended to Kill, 1t broke;
Stephens, half fanting, fell upon his
back The giant Cone was ut his throat
in a moment; his head, by grip OF
iron, was held against the cruel floor

held aloft before him ready for the fatal
thrust, but still the poor, pale face OF
the little hero was set and detiant--hi,
black eyes still flashing mechanically.
"Retract, or I'll cut your cursed
throat Kissed Cone,
"Cut! I'll never retract,' gasped the
almost lifcless Stephens.
Like a flash the knife, came down.
With an almost sUpcrhuman effort the
PROSTATE man caught it in his right
hand. Clean through the muscles,
tcndons and bones of the hand 1t cut

tried TO wrench it free With GRASP

and mutilated hand still held it fast.

was dying. But even when he believed

Stephens had received were examined

had been cut. The doctors declared
that he would surely die. Happily
their predictions were not verified. His
life was saved by the unremitting care

as good fortune would have it, hap.

When he recovered, with q magnanim-
