on the outside of the iron door, put the
key in his pocket. and entered the
dark tunnel. Before he had entered,
the bookkeeper had gone away,
He found that the shovel had been
left at the farther end of the passage,
and it was quarter of an hour before
he could get it and return to the en-.
trance.
When he returned to the door, he
found. to his horror. that it had been

Harry pounded upon the door again,

No one was within hearing. His key
was useless. for the door could only be
opened from the outside.
He sat down and pondered again.

within short time after the clearing
of the tunnel th5 furnaces were fired
up" again; and, as soon as the fires
were started, he would be suffocated
by the smoke and gases, and would die
dreadful death.
The thought filled him with alarm.
Again and again he beat upon the door
with the shovel, but no one came to
his assistance. Could he climb down
through one of the furnaces and es-
cape that way before the fires were
lighted?
No; he knew well enough that the
way toward the furnaces was barred
by huge iron CRATE that extended
across the tunnel. Nevertheless, he
rushed to the gratings as if hoping that
by some accident there might be pas

The gratings were impossible, Of

hill, a quarter of mile away, a huge
iron chimney rises scventy-five feet
above the ground; and to this chimney,
through an underground passage, is
conducted the smoke from the lead
furnaces.
There is a good reason for this
method of conducting the smoke away.
If the smoke from a lead furnace is
carried directly upwards to the air it
settles rapidly to the ground, leaving a
grayish sediment where it touches
More than three-q uarters of this sedi-
ment is pure lead which ordinarily
goes to waste
After much experiment to save the
waste. the DENLY company hit upon
the plan OF conducting the smoke from
the furnaces through an underground
passage In this way the lead which
had escaped in the smoke by evapora-
tion was given time to cool and to be
condensed before passing through the
chimney.
The tunnel was near the surface of
the ground, and was lined on the in
side with thick wall of brick. Near
the furnaces an iron door opened into
the tunnel, through which the lead
was removed
A few years ago the DENLY company
had among its employees a boy named
Harry Baker, stout young fellow, six
teen years old. He did odd jobs about
the works, and assisted wherever he
was needed
One day Harry was sent to help the

the tunnel. Of course the smelling
works had to be shut down during the
time set apart for this work; and for
this reason, and in order that the fur
naces might be started up again as
quickly as possible. the work was
done hastily.
It was late in the afternoon when
the Job was finished. There was moth
ing more for him to do that day, and
Harry was sent home. Just as he came
into the village he met Peters, the fore
man of the gan of men who had taken
the lead out of the tunnel

and If you will do the errand for me it

''All right" said Harry. He walked
briskly back to the smelling works,
and found the place deserted by all
save the bookkeeper, who was prepar-
ing to go home.
