Courageous Janet. standing on the
beach, saw her SO being done todeath, and
without moments hesitation plunged
into the waves after her, seized her by
the hair and dragged her to land, uncon-
scious but alive. In all her struggles
with death the mother had not loosened
her hold upon the child, a pretty little
golden blonde maid of two years or there
about. Both were resuscitated with
little difficulty and sheltered in the house
Of David King.

At dusk one evening ten days later,
Janet, CHANGING to go to the door and
look out toward the beach. noticed a
scuffie among three men at such q dis
lance from her that in the indistinct
light then prevailing she could not de-
termine positively who they were or ex-
actly what they were doing. Two Of
them she fancied were her brothers,
Donald and Andrew, but of the identity
Of the third she had not even a suspicion.

That evening the wolnan, fully recov-
cred bat snugly ensconced in warm
blankets, told her story to Janet, who
sat by the bed to keep her company.
She said:
Il came from Manchester, England,
to join my husband, who has been living
in Philadelphia for a year past, and is
now expecting our arrival. little i1nagin-
ing how near thing it has been to his
never seeing eitherof us again. He had to
fee from England, but for nothing that
heneed be ashamed of. Aman with whom
he was associated in business robbed
him outrageously, and they fought about
it. In self defense against mnrderous
knife he cracked the rascal's skull with
bar of iron and thought he had killed
him. He would have been justified in
doing SO, but they were alone; he knew
that he could not prove the deed done in
self defense, and in fear Of arrest he
fed that same night to Liverpool, with
out waiting even to say farewell to me.
from Liverpool he managed to escape
to this country Until last October he
| deemed himself murderer, and was
haunted always by the fear of the gal
! lows, but in that month he met face to
face the man he thought he had muir
4 dered- The wTetch's skull had healed
up as good as new, and, having whole
some fear of the consequences of invit-
ing the police to make any inquiries into
his affairs, he had never even complained
/ of having been assaulted When my
/ husband learned that, and not until
then, he yentured to write to me, telling
me the story and directing me to come
over with Edith as soon this spring as
ocean travel should be safe and pleas
ant"
well" replied Janet smilingly, syou
did not find it either safe or pleasant,
but you are all right now, and in few
| days will be with your husband again. :"
Eyes, thanks to you, brave, noble girl
that you are. And you shall see that he
viii be grateful to you for saving his
wife and child. Heis no poor chap, able
for nothing more than q thank you,
ma'am. He has done right well in this
country. His firm is well known. No
doubt you have heard of him."
What Is his manner
'sSelden Rangely."
Janet stared 1T her in Mortified amaze
ment, speechless, feeling strange wild
whirling in her brain, vaguely wondering
if she were really awake and had indeed
heard that name or if nightmare pos
sessed her. The light in the room was
dim, and the woman failed to see the
deathly pallor that spread over the girls
face, did not notice her silence and un,
nerved sinking back in her low rocking
chair. but just prattled on heedlessly and
unsuspectingly about her husband. her
baby and herself, the narrow confines OF
her world
At length Janet spoke. Her throat
seemed dry, her white lips hard and
