ran down to the kitchen. provided myself
with q candle and silently went out into the
yard. A heap Of bricks and rubbish showed
where the men had been working, and on
lighting the candle found to my mex
pressible Joy that a break had beer made
in the wall and roughly closed for the night
with a couple Of boards pushed one aside
and found that | could easily get into the
cellar beyond, where saw the square blocks
Of clay piled up from floor to ceiling.
With some little difficulty l made my
way through the cellar into the warehouse
and thence through an Office into the shop,
and here thought had nothing to do but
unbolt the door and walk out. But when
l came to examine the fastenings discov.
cred fact which l might have foreseen,
knowing that no one inhabited the pottery
the door was locked on the outside. My
heart fell, and stood looking at the solid
lock stupidity for some moments, quite over
come by the hopelessness Of my position.
In the silence that followed my ear caught
the sound of a distant footstep and then the
heavy scrape Of a nailed boot on ladder
and the rustic of straw on the warehouse
floor. With unreasoning terror l figured
Drigo pursuing me hither, and my heart
stood still with the consciousness that !
was utterly at his mercy.
A glimmer of light appeared. 1t grew
stronger, and then a part of rough corduroys
appeared ut the head of the steps with a
lantern on one side and crowbar on the
other. but the next minute breathed again
as n man came into sight whom / recog-
nized as hand employed in the pottery.
He could say nothing for establishment on
finding me there. nor was h., amazement
lessened when made him understand that
WANTED to leave the pottery without going
back through the yard.
well. miss" said he, there's only one
way you can go out IL SO be you don't want
to go back the way you come. and that's
the way come in when I've got my fires to
look after, = the case is tonight. It's
longer way round and sight dirtier, for
you'll have to go through the coalyard and
out into Ferry street, where the roads all
up for the drains"
The eagerness with which agreed to take
this roundabout and unpleasant route
must have led him to doubt whether ON the
whole was quite in my right mind, and
indeed my cxultation and joy were little
short Of madness when got out into Ferry
street, where knew was quite safe from
Drigo.

Fashion High Arm Singer

Five Years Guarantee.
Delivered Railroad Freight Paid.
Full Set OF Finest oteef attachments,
In PIush Lined Cass.
Our Finest Premium Is without doubt the
Fashion High Arm Singer Sewing Machine.
The "Singer" has stood the test Of 40 years
and made princely fortune for its inventor.
The Fashion" Singer, however. Is an i'm
provement on the original machine, as 1t has
all modern Improvements up to date which
are known or found In flrst-class family sew
Ing machine.
The automatic bobbin winder winds all sizes
OF thread on the bobbin as easily as q spool Of
thread Is wound, without care or attention on
the part OF the operator, except to keep the
treadle moving. Owing to the machine having
what is termed a tight and loose wheel, the
bobbin can be wound without running the
working parts OF the machine. This Is quite
an advantage. as 1t does not nccessitate re-
moving the goods from underneath the presser
foot, or even unthreading the machine.
The needle is short and straight. thus insur-
ing great strength: it is also self-setting, re-
curing no care on the part of the operator.
The pressure on the sewing foot Is adjustable,
and when the foot Is raised to remove the work
from the machine. 1t brings into play the au-
tomato tension release. This takes the ten
sion from the thread. and the goods can be re.
moved from the machine without bending tho
needle or breaking the thread. Every operator
on old style machines will appreciate this.
The woodwork Is Of either antique oak or
walnut, at choice of purchaser.
Each machine ia furnished with the follow.
Ing accessories and attachments:

Natural Ignorance.

According to the author of THE
Realm of the Habsburg," the mobiles
of Austria, with some exceptions
of course, are very little given to
intellectual pursuits. Count l.,
a well-known member of the Her.
ren-haus, hailed cab and told the
driver to take him to Gerald's book
store, the principal one in Vienna.
Cabby looked puzzled, and frankly
confessed that he did not know the
shop in question.
"What," said the count, "you
pretend to be Vienna cab driver
and do not know Gerald's?"
Half in apology and half in a
tone of commad, the cabman replied:
"Your lordship must excuse me,
but am only in the habit of carry
ing gentlemen"
