HE had been refused permission to
leave the post he said, and could not
cross the bridge, where the sentries
would be sure to recognize him, but as
it was our last chance of meeting he
risked the discovery Of his absence, new
er dreaming Of such thing as his pri-
vate rooms being inspected. He had a
little skiff down in the willows that he
had used before, and by leaving the
party at midnight he could get home,
change his dress, run down the bank
and row down stream to the point, there
leave his slsiff and climb up to the road.
He met us there at o'clock, and the
Suttons would never betray either of us,

eyes full of fire and spirit, her bosom
heaving, her little foot tapping the
ground, as she stood there leaning on
the colonels fence and looking straight
up i'll the perturbed veterans face. She
was magnificent, he said to himself,
and i'll her bravery, self sacrifice and in
dignation she was. 1T was then after

and we came out here again through
the darkness together. Even when we
got to the point did not let him go at
once. 1t was over an hours drive. 1t
was fully half past before we parted.
He sprang down the path to reach the
riverside, and before he was fairly ip

neglected roses.

soul, l admire your bravery and spirit
You have cleared him Of terrible
charge"
A most disdainful and impatient
shrug Of her shapely shoulders was Miss
Beaubicn' S only answer to that allusion.
The possibility Of Mr.. Jerrold's being
suspected of another ENHANCEMENT was
something she would not tolerate.
II know nothing Of other peoples af-
fairs. l simply speak Of my own. Let
us end this as quickly as possible, cap
tain. Now about Saturday night.

back for the german-sho enjoys seeing

Croix, staying there Saturday night and
over Sunday. This would give us q
chance to meet again, as he could spend
the evening in st. Croix and return by
late train, and | wrote and asked him.
He came. We had long talk in the
summer house in the garden, for mother
never dreamed of his being there, and
unlucbily he just missed the night train
and did not get back until inspection.
1t was impossible for him to have beer
at Sablon, and he can furnish Other
proof, but would do nothing until ht
had seen me. ("
Miss Beaubien, you have cleared
him. I only wish that you could cleal

cution?"
The captain smiled "You certainly
deserve to be the bearer Of good tidings.
l wish he may appreciate it"
Another moment, and she had left
him and sped back to Jerrold's door
way. He was there to meet her, and
Chester looked with grim and uncertain
emotion at the radiance in her face. He
had to get back to the office and to pass
them; SO, as oivilly as he could, consid-
ering the weight wrath and contempt
he felt for the man, he stopped and
spoke:
Your fair advocate has been all pow
erful. Mr. Jerrold. congratulate you,
and your arrest is at an end. Captain
Armitage will require no duty Of you
until we are aboard, but we've only
half an hour. The train is coming sharp
at noon. "
"Train What train? Where are you
going?" she asked, wild anxiety in
her eyes, sudden pallor on her face.

RADIO, Nina, to rescue what is left of
Thornton's men. But for you should

"But for me! left behindp" she cried.

"Nina, hush! My honor is with the

twill all be over before we get there.
Nina, don't look so! Don't act SO! Think

But she had borne too much, and the
blow came all too soon-too heavy. She
was well nigh senseless when the Beau
bien carriage ca1ue whirling into the
fort and old Maman rushed forth in
voluble and rabid charge upon her
daughter. All too late 1t was useless
now. Her darling's heart was weaned
away and her love lavished ON that tall,
Objectionable young soldier so soon to

wrath, were all in order, but were
abandoned at sight Of poor Nina agony
of grief. Noon came, and the train, and
with buoyant tread the gallant COM
mand marched down the winding road
and filed aboard the cars, and Howard
Jerrold, shame stricken, humbled at the
contemplation of his own unworthiness,
slowly unclasped her arms from about
his neck, laid one long kiss upon her
white and quivering lips, took one brief
look in the great dark, haunting, de-
spairing eyes and carried her vail of
anguish ringing in his ears as he sprang
aboard and was whirled away.
But there were women who deemed
themselves worse off than Nina Beau.
bien-the wives and daughters and
sweethearts whom she met that morn in
town, for when they got back to Sibley
the regiment was miles away. For them
there was not even a kiss from the lips
Of those they loved. Time and train

rades battling for life in the Colorado
Rockies, and aid could not come too
soon.

Deceiying an Expert,

Thomas Carvalho, the treasury expert,
who is said to be the best judge of money
in the world, was sent to Birmingham,
Ala, to testify as an expert in a counterfeit
case. In explaining to the jury the secret
marks which the genuine silver dollar
bears, he said: "The designer of the stand
ard silver dollar, Mr.. Morgan, stamped the
initial of his name in two places on the
coin. All genuine standard silver dollars
bear one minute letter 'M' stamped on the
neck of the Goddess of Liberty, just at the
point where the longest lock of hair crosses
the neck line, and another on the reverse
side of the coin, on the left half of the loop
of ribbon tied about the wreath"
Drawing from his pocket a handful of
coins he left the witness stand and walked
over to the jury box. "If you will look at
these dollars very carefully" said he, you
will observe the marks to which l have
alluded" He then distributed the dollars
among the jurors and asked them to ex-
anime the coins. After studying awhile,
all but three of the jurors were able to
make out the minute MS" Then eX.
pert Carvalho smilingly volunteered to
point out the secret initials to the three
gentlemen whose eyes were not acute
enough to detect them.
Taking the three coins in his hand he
glanced at them casually. A puzzled look
overspreaa his features; he closely scru
tinized the dollars, walking over to the
window to get the benefit of clearer light
Then he turned to the jury and said: "Gen

you. They are counterfets." just befor'

A Prominent Professor Speaks About
the Threatening Things Abroad at
This Time of the Year.
"It is surprising how many people are sui
ferng to-day from so-called coughs, colds and
Influenza"
The remark was made by a very prominent
Professor, connected with one of the leading
New York hospitals. Continuing, he said:
lit is not these things that are troubling
people, but it is an advanced form of our old
enemy the grip. People feel out of sorts
sneeze, have pains in the muscles and bones,
have no appetite, lose all interest in the world
and wonder what is the matter. II is the
grip, nothing else
''Now, all such symptoms need TO have
prompt treatment. The attack must be met
and Tepelled at once, or 1t is certain to run
into something serious. l know OF but one
way to certainly avoid these troubles which
are now SO common, ana that is, TO iInmedi-
ateiy cOunteract them by using good, pure,
strong stimulant. Nothing or the ordinary
kind, but something pure and scientific. For
Pure Malt Whisky, which is acknowledged
to-day by physicians and scientific people 10
be the only pure medicinal malt whisky upon
the market"
The words of the Professor are true and they
carry wonderful meaning to many men and
women who are suffering with tle first symp-
toms of grip or else grip in its advanced
stages. For all such people we offer word of
advice, which is 10 take the best means TO
any dealer TO swerve you from your purpose
to have that which has proven itself by years
OF use to be the best and purest stimulant in
the world.

compassion we wondered that Gods peo-
pie had provided nothing better for these
