the revolver. When he laid hold Of
my wrist the revolver was fired. but
the bullet Went into the air. A mo-
ment later there was another shot
and the bullet entered Gibbs left
arm. He fell toward me and we
clincled. Then it was that Sadie
pulled her revolver and shot him in
the head. He dropped and we start
ed to rob him when we saw somebody
coming. We skipped out. climbing
over the hedge fence and running be-
tween two houses. We separated and
me on Il back street. Then we walked
around the block and back past the
place Of the murder. but on the Oppo-

When You Visit the Sick.

Always when visiting a sick person
endeavor to sit where the Invalid may
see you without making all effort to
do so. Under any circumstances it is
always more satisfactory to see the
person to whom one is talking; and
nothing is more fatiguing to an lnva-
lid than to be obliged to twist into an
uncomfortable position in order to
see the visitor, The good effect of
the most CHEEKY talk will be rullifed
by the fatigue of the effort, And
don't speak Of depressing subjects;
above all, refrain from talking of sim
liar cases that you have known or
heard of, unless by doing SO you can
make the sufferer more hopeful. Fell
all the bright, CHEEKY things you can,
retail pleasant bits of news; but don't
stay too long, even though urged to
remain. from "SuNitdrjum;" Dem0
