 Fancy fits for moment back to the hard fought field of MARsToN MOoR.
 Hush !- Is that Rupert's voice ?
 "Gentlemen For God and the King - Trumpeter !- Sound the charge !''-
 A single shrill clarion-note sounds through the stiffness, and the broad plain skakes to the tread of thunder as flank to flank, stirrup to stirrup, that glittering line of the bluest blood, and lest horse-aesh in Europe, gallops down to glo- rious victory or still more glo- rious death--doublets all afre with hnery, gay plumes galli- wanting, scented love locks loosened to the breeze.
 As they sweep by, the sun. light dances on a thousand ra' pier points, and a thousand throats take up the ringing shout of "A Rupert! A Ru. pert !"
 Who shall resist them in such an hour ? Twas but a sixteenth cen tury imagining, reader, ot those light heads and loya' hearts who staked their all or a lost cause and paid the for felt of fortune-ay, even life | with the generous grace o1 gentlemen.

 That LIBERTY is today the proudest of ours-of Colum bias possessions, Perhaps even yet there might finger in some old home a religiously-preserved relic ot the Priscillas and Miles Stan dishes of our great-great-grand' fathers, a curiously wrought SILVER CUP that can boast ot having once held brimming draughts of Canary" or "Sack."

He passed his hand oUer his forehead.
Cipher writing is so ancient an art
that there is little or nothing to be said
about it, and perhaps there are no new
cipher types to be invented. The ideal
cipher is one that is easily written and
read by those in the secret, and yet is
practically undecipherable by outsiders.
In such cipher all the time and labor are
expended upon determining its funda-
mental principles of construction. Once
those are settled, the practical working
of it is simple.
The cipher which Keppel was dealing
with was of this species, and perhaps
no more nearly perfect one was ever
made. 1t was based upon the philo-
sophie structure of language, and upon
the mathematical principle that gives
different values or meanings to a char
acter according to its place in a combi-
nation. This plan enables words to be
written with much fewer letters than
are contained in the ordinary alphabet
and to be expressed with not more than
four characters-as, one to represent the
root of the word, one for the termina-
tions, one for the part Of speech, one for
such common combinations as ion, ght,
ment, phi, and so on. Thus, if in the
cipher ikmn meant writing, then iklm
would mean writer, iknm written or
wrote, and kiln to write. Further mod
ifications were indicated by the capital
letters. and others of different kind by
the periods and commas.
But it will not be necessary to carry
these hints any further. Enough has
been said to enable the reader, if he be
so minded, to work out the problem.
Keppel in the course of twenty minutes
had read the cipher letter, which, trans
lated from the French into English, ran
as follows:
Arrangements have been perfected.

Trust him. He leaves Paris February
fifteen. Will take easterly route, and

rur several minutes Keeper contem-
plated the paper without suspicion of
its significance. 1t was not sum in al
zebra. There were no equations; no x
or y, no powers or signs. 1t might be a
memorandum in shorthand or cipher.
Yes, it was probably cipher memoran-
dunn. But it was not all in cipher. The
words seemed to be comment or ex-

''It strikes me-" said Keppel to him
self, ''that I've seen something like this
somewhere. &C. Kphl.-S. limp That
looks familiar"
All at once he began to feel in his
pockets with signs of excitement.
Here it was-the newspaper cutting,
containing the cipher letter found on the
person of Harry Trent after his death.
Eeppel spread it out on his knee and
compared it will. the anomalous docu-
ment In a moment he uttered cry of
surprise-surprise that his wild anticipa.
ton had been fulfilled.
The cipher of the letter and the cipher
of the document were identical. But
the latter was the key to the former and
the explanation of it, and by its aid KEEP
pei could read the mysterious communi-
cation as easily as he could construe
French.

reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There Is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused By an inAamed con-
dition OF the mucous lining OF the
Eustachian tube. When this tube gets
intamed you have q rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroycd forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inhamed condition OF the
