several hundred young persons gathered
around her. Il want to ask you to
keep up the standard of gentlemanly
and ladylike behavior that l see
around me, as well as to preserve your
good looks. How are you going to
keep up this standard? Well, by
avoiding certain youthful vices Some
of these you know well. Eating your
dinner in hurry is one. Smuggling
your breakfast into your stomach is
another. Reading in bed is a third,
and even worse is smoking in bed. In
order to take new ideas into our minds
we must read, butreading at the wrong

1 Am Thy Knight.

] am thy knight, and thou hast sent me forth
To battle with the demon of despair,
To conquer self, and from its ashes bring
The phoenix of my boyhood's fervid Dreams;
10 live the long, long years and make my life
Like to the sower as he passes by
scattering the grain on rock and fertile field
10 reap or lose as fate shall will it so.
No favor hast thou sent, as those of old
Wore lovingly and closely on their hearts
W hen they went forth to far-off Palestine,
But simply for thy word that it is best
AND for the trust and message sent by thee
DO go on to conquer in the fight
VI man the brute against the man divine.
Count me no idle dreamer-most of all
! pray you not on some high pedestal
Entrench my nature; / am but a man
W no loves and hates is merry and is sad,
Has known of gladneSS and has tasted woe
And holds no higher honor to himself
Than trueSt love to all things true and good
And pity infinite for suffering.
Here is my hand-and to the world my gage,
For as Tourney onward in my quest
shall not faiter, even where l fail;
But having from the strength of thy rare soul
Caught some reflection of n light divine
Eull-armed am !, and reSOiute as death
10 lace the utmost rigor of my fate,
10 cleaYe to hope, to hope for happiness
10 be my better self as best I can,
And so through all the lapses of gray time
10 be man because am thy knight.

from lantern that had been swung
| upon her face. Don was licking her
/ hands and face in a canine transport of
| Joy and alarm. Voices resounded
around her, and she recognised the
kindly accents of a gardeners wife,
whose cottage, a mile off, she had fire.
| quently passed in her walks
Its tainted she has, poor dear!
And no wonder! Shut up here in the
dark alone, and how do you expect she
ever got up here? Mr.. Hammond was
right then when he said he thought he
heard voice calling for help from the
top of the tower as he rode by down
by the entrance to the grounds"
1t was pretty far off to hear" an
swered the voice of the woman's hus-
band. Still, when the night is so
quiet. But the funny thing is
Mr.. Hammond didn't stop to see what
it was himself, instead of riding on so
far as our house."
HE said he wasn't sure, Caleb.
Only when he come to think of it he
suspected more and more that some
thing might be wrong But he didn't
have time to go back then.''
Virginia had aroused herself then,
her bewilderment all gone He had
shielded her carefully then to the last!
Heaven be thanked, miss!'' ex-
claimed the gardeners wife. "Are you
feeling better? And how did it ever
happen, ma'am?"
Il will tell you later. Could you get
me home now? I seem to have little
strength"
Before the two worthy people retired
definitely for the night, the woman
said to her husband:
II tell you it's been dreadful shock
to Miss Redwood, Caleb. Did you see
how strange her eyes looked? so full of
pain, like? and white? White as a
ghost!"
In the lush freshness of the following
June the county house of Conrad
hammond stood bolted. barred, and
unfinished. He had been away nearly
a year, and work thereupon had been
suspended indefinitely. To the letters
of his lawyer and agents he had re-
piled. Leave everything as it is. I
don't know when l shall return" For
the rest, the sleepy old historic village
ceased to wonder and settled again in
to its somnolent Indifference.
The silence of the weed-grown
grounds was now so rarely broken by
human voice or football that the sud-
den call, "Don! Donl Down sir!''
reverbated strangely under the shade
of the pathway. At its turning man
had suddenly appeared, and Conrad
Hammond and Virginia Redwood
looked wordlessly, breathlessly into
each others faces.
81 thought you were abroad, stam-
mered the girl. How should she account
for her presence hereunder the very
shadow of the tower in which such
words had been spoken the last time
she had ever seen him? and what
would he think of the hot blood Grim
soning her cheek, and the trembling of
the hand that held Don in leash?
And I thought you had gone to
India he said.
81 90 next week"
''And you came here-here-once
again before leaving?" He had drawn
closer to her, and his hungry eyes read
her timid ones. Virginia, are you
sure you did not make mistake that
night ten months ago? If I should
tell you now what l told you then
would you answer as you didP Would
you still go to India?"
She had covered her face with her
hands. Her words came broken and
slow.

Mrs. Bessie Wallace testified that the

In the room for several hours before the
commissions set in, and that no medicine
was given to the patient This is a
most important point, as the State had
claimed that during the time Petit had
treated his wife with capsule OF
strychnine, which caused the convul-
sions.
A number OF witnesses testified that
the body after death wore most natu-
raj and peaceful expression.
