In India an ingenious scheme is prac-
ticed for taxing ducks on a line, which
is attached at one end to a flexible stick
stuck up in the mud, the other extremity
having a double pointed needle of bone
attached to it. The latter is baited by
stringing upon it ONE grains of corn.
Presently along comes Mr.. Duck, swal-
lows the needle and finds himself a cap
tive the moment he tries to fly away. In
old times the Cape Cod fishermen de-
pended largely for bait upon the sea fowl
they took on their voyages. To catch
them they threw out fishing lines with
hooks on the ends, to which were at
tached chunks of cod liver. The latter
loated because of the oil they contained,
and INJURIES, gulls and other birds swal-
lowing them were quickly pulled in,
skinned and chopped up.-Interview in

Mr.. Arthur S. Green, an American
photographer, gives the following meth
od of making the Gamers a source Of
amusement by the production of "ghost'
or shadow" pictures-for example, a
seated man starting back in terror from
his own specter. Make a background of
the proper size by stretching out some
black material. Place the subject, draped
in white or in light clothing, in the right
attitude to the right or left of the center
of the background, then focus the cam
era and expose the plate for half a sec
ond. The impression will be hat of a
shadowy and ghostlike figure. Take a
chair and table, placing the chair in the
ceNter of the background, and the table
on the side away from the ghost.
Seat the subject in the chair, with his
head turned to the ghost; focus again,
and give the plate n full exposure, which,
if the light is good, should be about two
seconds Develop and print in the usual
way. Any objects to be seen through
the ghost should be photographed with
fifteen seconds exposure before taking
the picture of the ghost, Other devices
of the kind might be mentioned, but it
will be more interesting to leave them
to the ingenuity of the amateur.-New
York Advertiser.

WASHINGTON, Nov. l9.-This after
noon in the ~Episcopalian congress Rev.
Mr.. Lindes of New Haven delivered an
address. ia which he protested against
an indiscriminate and sweeping condem-
nation OF all church societies. He
pleaded earnestly for the discrimination
and wise choice between she possible
agencies that are at hand, saying IN the
first placo the organizations should be
simple. The work OF societies should not
be substituted for personal work, nor
should the church be permitted to obscure
the personal element that made the
preaching of ministers in the past so sue
cessfuL.
Rev. Mr.. Jones Of Wilkesbarre, Pa. ,
followed on much the same lines as Rev.
Mr.. Lindes. The need Of the day, said
he, is not for simpler or more perfect or
ganization in the matter of church work,
but a fuller and more complete consecra-
ton to God. Rev. Mr.. M~ellivhampe OF
North Carolina spoke on the success that
attends the organized effort in large city
churches as compared with the uuorgani'
zed work of smaller parishes.
At the evening session Catholic ant
Protestant Incidents in the Life of the
Church was discussed, various papers
being read and addresses made.

He was now within sight of the house,
and he quickened his pace, seeing in i'm
agination Olympia waiting for him there.
How sweet beyond thought would their
reunion bel For her he had surrendered
everything. Had there been more to
give he would have given it; and he
knew with a blessed certainty that she
would love the poor artist as much as
and even more than the hundredfold
millionaire. They would find their
riches in each other, and the treasure of
a thousand worlds would be we'll ex-
changed for that.
Thus thinking he hurried forward and
crossed the lawn, which in a broad ex-
panse surrounded the house A broad
graveled drive, sweeping in n semicircle,
led to the veranda and the front en-

carriage wheels and of horses hoofs-

United himself to contemplate-that Sal

ment. Had she done this he would
have had no remedy. His joy that this
browning misery had been spared him
was so great that he could find it in his
heart to bless the enemy who had tor
mented him as seldom man had been
tormented.
He sprang lightly on the veranda, and
trod it with resembling footsteps. He
had thought that Olympia might neal
him and come forth to meet him, but
she did not appear. No doubt she was
too weak for any exertion, and he must
moderate the first manifestations of his
happiness lest she be overcome. But his
happiness was TO last for n lifetime; he
could afford to put a curb upon it at the
outset. The door stood wide open. His

They both drew simultaneously. Sal
lie won. She threw up her hands with
a wild laugh, and then stopped to pick
up the weapon. But Garcia had already
secured it. Keppel stepped back a pace
or two and stood with his hands clasped
behind him.

care you. mad? Give me the revolt
ver!' She tried to snatch it from him.
He avoided her movement, and, with
a quick turn of the arm, aimed at her
heart and fired. She remained erect a
moment, her eyes dilating in a stare of
rage and amazement. AS she sank for
ward, the wound being almost instantly
fatal, the mysterious being who had
slain her received her in his arms and,
half kneeling, supported her against his
shoulder.
you Caucasians do not understand
love" he said, looking up with a quiet
face at Keppel. You do not; this wom-
an did not, but she understands now.
Hitherto many things nave separated us,
but henceforth we shall be together.
Why do you wait here. Go home to
your Olympia. Be happy in your way.
The papers YOU sigped are destroyed
with this woman. Leave us to our
selves"
You will come with me-" said KEEP

Sallie's life as well as for Olympia's.

quietly. What you mistook for death
was only trance. l should AVE awak-
ened her as soon as we were off your
grounds" He paused and waved his
arm with a peculiar gesture. ''She is
awake now" he added, land she looks
for you. Go to her and leave us to our
selves"
"Is this the truthT' cried Keppel.
The other made no reply. He passed
his arms beneath Sallie's body and raised
her as easily as if she were an infant.
The swamp lay on the left of the road,
at a distance Of thirty yards. Thither,
with his burden, the man directed his
steps. Keppel gazed after him, but did
not follow, not divining his purpose.
As the man approached the margin of
the swamp he clasped the dead body
more closely to his breast. He was now
partly yelled from Keppel's eyes by the
bright green foliage that grew luxuri-
antly in this spot. The black, still water
reflected the warm hue of the Afternoon
sky. Quickly and with strange agility
the man leaped from one quaking hum
mock of turf to another, until he was far
out in the deepest part of the swamp.
One more leap he gave; h water splash
ed upward and then closed over him and
that which he carried. The ripples
widened out and died away, and all was
as before.
Keppel turned toward the house. The
level sun shone full upon it and upon a
figure standing on the veranda. Olympia

ton. It's, an invigorating, r~estora-

remedy for all the functional de-
rangements, painful disorders or
chronic weaknesses peculiar to wo-

brings refreshing sleep, and restores
flesh and strength. For periodical
pains, internal Inflammation and Ill

ments, it is a positive speciic-a

satisfaction, in any case, the money
paid for it is refunded. No other
medicine for women is sold on these

it can't be done.
That's the way its makers prove
their faith in it. Contains no alco-

medicine, not a beverage. Purely

CHAPTER XIX
DRAWING LOTS.
At half past four o'clock Keppel Darke
was landed on Long Island, and was
within a couple of miles of the summer
cottage he had built there. 1t was Sun
day, and the workmen had left their
work. The house, for that matter, was
all but completed except its interior fur
nishings. A watchman was appointed
TO keep guard over 1t, but during the
daytime his duties were merely nomi-
nal, and at that hour he was taking a
siesta in his quarters above the stable at
the back of the building, little expect
ing that the owner of the premises was
so near.
1t so happened hat Darke was now
traversing the same region through
which he had groped his way on that
night, three years before, after his escape
from the railroad wreck. The emo
now required to him, and with it the
parallel between his state then and now.
The events of the intermediate period
were to him like a strange story which
he had read, and which seemed true
while he vas reading it, but which he

rience and that other one were alone
real. Now, as then, he was a penniless
and helpless fugitive, an outcast from
society, with danger logging his foot
steps. Then, as now, a treasure lay be-
fore him, but then the treasure was of
precious stones and jewels; now it was
the woman who loved him and whom
he loved. He had lost the one, but he
had gained the other. And as he pushed
his way onward he thanked God that
the better part was left to him. The
suffering that he had undergone since
Olympia's disappearance, and especially
the agony of the torture to which he had
just been subjected, he remembered as
a hideous nightmare or a burning at the
stake. But the flames of that fire had
consumed the baser part of him; his
heart was purified, and at every step he
took it grew lighter and more hopeful.
