Wonderful" gasped the visitor.
you ask me why I know. Because
your right arm is longer than the other.
In catching the cable cars you grab
the rail with your right hand, and the
jerking you receive day by day has
heightened your arm so that 20 a

"As funny a thing as l ever knew Of
in the newspaper business" said the
reformed reporter, "was the way
Sandy Mclean gave the Chicago Tri-
bune a scoop. Now Sandy. to my way
of thinking. is the best reporter in
Chicago. He was a lawyer once, and a
mighty good one, but he saw that the
law had no such opportunities as the
newspaper business. and he came to
Chicago from the Iowa town where
he was practicing and began work on
one OF h big dailies. He hadn't been
there a week before the managing edi-
tor realized that he had a star, and
Sandy was given every opportunity to
make himself a name.
He made it, too. He was put on
big story after big story and beat ev-
cry other reporter in the city. After Il
m he got to the Tribune and kept
up his brilliant work. He was with
the Tribune for a long time. The Her
aid and other papers wanted him, but
Sandy stuck to the Tribune. He got a
bit free and gay, but the old man put
up with him. Finally patience ceased
to be a virtue, and M day Sandy drift
ed into the office only to be told that
they thought they might be able to get
out a paper without him if they hus-
tied.
He went out whistling gayly and
walked over to the Herald Office. He
told them the Tribune people had just
fired him and asked for a job. The
Herald was too glad to get him. They
snapped him up right away. The next
day Sandy reported for an assignment.
The city editor of the Herald put him
on a big story he had been keeping on
the ice for awhile and told Sandy that
1t was exclusive.
Sandy went out and got the facts.
He found that he was the first and
only newspaper man who knew any
thing about the tale, and it was a cork
er. He started back to the office to
write it up. He had been so use to 60
ing to the Tribune office that he me-
chanically got of the car there and
walked up to the local room. He sat
down to his old desk, wrote the story
and handed 1t to the city editor. The
city editor saw that the story was SEN
s%ational. put a scare head on it and
ran 1T on the first page. The Tribune
was the only paper that had it, and
Sandy did not wake up to what he had
done until he had got a note from the
Herald city editor, next morning. call
ing him all sorts of names and dis
charging him. He got back to the Tri-
bune, though, and he's there yet

she shook her fingers in Grace's livid
face.
"Be gone!" she said, hoarsely. "Hov
dare you profane the presence of the
dead?" and Grace Denison, her face
flushing hotly, only stood still and
thought q second and then went meek
ly from her presence.
But in that ~momentary hesitation hel
plan of mercy was conceived. Witt
the dead girls face still lividly before
her eyes, she hurried to where they
were keeping her husband. At first
when she saw him he was still the man
she loved, the man whose name she
bore and whose slightest wish it was
her only joy to pamper. There were
tears in her eyes, tears in her voice
and tears in her heart wnen she asked
of him the fatal question.
Charlie" she whispered fondly,
"swear to me it is not true, this hide
Gus story that they tell about you.
Tell me that 1 AM still our wife, that
you love me and that all this other
fiendish thing is but the wild concep-
ton of Il tattling neighbors. Tell
me-" she began again, but stopped
as she saw his guilty features.
There was fear in his eyes and guilt in
his soul as he rose at last and tried to
face her.
at is all quite true he said eau
tiousiy. "She vas my mistress n l
killed her in a fit of passion. I have
wronged you and I have got to die,
unless you forgive me and will try
to ave me-"
With a mighty scOrn sinking in her
heart Grace Denison turned upon her
heel and left him there.
'Die!" she muttered hoarsely as she
walked away. death is too good for
such as you. and it is what you have
given your innocent victim
Then when she was alone once more
she began to think about the future.
What was there left when love was
gone, what happiness could soothe her
sorrow? To die was peace and blessed
rest. to live meant fierce, perpetual an
guiSh.
Why should she be the only one to
live-She the most innocent of the
three, so far as the opinion of the
world was concerned. 1t was almost
more than she could bear, this looking
forward to her future.
She hurried back to her home, shun-
ming her. neighbors on the way and half

inside the door she pulled the ring
from her finger and threw it in a dis
tant corner. then jerking the Bible
from it's place she tore to shreds that
precious page that proved her sacred,
legal marriage.
1t had occurred to her that in that
distant city no one would know the
truth and she might save the dead
girls name even at the price of her
w sweet honor.
Was it not her place to undo her
husbands evil deeds, and make good
his theft of a wolnan's reputation!
1t was the victims mother that had
put it into her head, the fact of her
having been taken for the guilty mis-
treSS.
To decide. was to act, and still silent,
still sorrowful, but brave in heart, she
left her happy home forever.
Two days later her husband was set
free. Grace Denison had sworn that
through jealousy she did the wicked
deed and then sat meeklv in her cell,
waiting with some impatience for the
fatal day which should bring oblivion
to her and condemn the man to per-
petual memory.

1T WAS HER ENGAGEMENT WEEK
In his he held her tiny hand,
The fingers soft he pressed,
And as they walked along the strand
His passion he confessed.
II love you, dearest one he said;
Il love you more than life;
The secret in my face you've read,
No doubt-then be my wife"
From lip and cheek the color fled,
And pale became her brow,
AS with a long-drawn sigh she said;
'Oh, do not ask me now"
"Why should not I an answer seek
Just now, my sweet?" tsked he.
Because" she said, "I-I-this week
l am engaged to three"
