stood. She lifted the little one almost
reverently. When Maxwell came out
of the Office he found them together.
A hot color famed in his bronzed cheek,
but the girls eyes, meeting his, were
eloquent, and, though his lips parted,
he said nothing. The two women
walked on either side, and no one
spoke. A few yards from the water
ditch they passed man.
1t was Brady. Neither Maxwell nor
his wife appeared to notice his pres
ence, but the girl looked him straight
in the face. A moment later but,
let whistled past the managers head
He felt the swift beat of the cleft air
against his cheek, and, for the space
Of half second, he faltered; then he
set his teeth and went on without SO
much as backward glance. The
women were keeping step, and neither
changed feet, though the wifes breath
was drawn in gasps and her face was
white as marble. Only the child,
startled by the sudden report, hid her
head on the girls shoulder and the girl
looked ahead to where Silas Field stood
waiting. With sudden movement,
she thrust the child into Maxwell's
arms.
take her, quick" she said, and her
voice shook ever so lightly. "She'a
frightened, and I'm tired"
The baby chung around her fathers
neck, pressing her rosy face agains; his
check Her hat had fallen back, and
her fair hair, caught by the wind, was
blown across Maxwell's eyes, a golden
veil, through the meshes of which he
saw the sudden CLINT of sunlight on
steel. And they were level with the
emissary of vengeance; but even as
they passed, the girl falling step be-
hind, covered the managers body with
her own, for they were so near height
that aim at one had meant short shift
for both. The instructions of the
Brotherhood had not provided for such
a contingency. Fields nerve forsools
him, and his hand dropped with an
oath. The three stood at the door OF
the little house among the pine trees.
1t was the girl who spoke first.
II must go back" she said, there is
still something to be DONE"
Her eyes sought those of the mana
gers wife. There was in that look
both pride and humility; question
and prayer. For answer, the wife
kissed her, weeping. Then, before
they had realized what had happened
she was gone. To Maxwell she said
nothing, not even good-by. At dawn,
the camp was reused by the clatteHoi
horses hoofs, The deputy sheriff
none knew how, had got wind of trouble
at the mine, and had ridden "hell for
leather" to the gers aid, for tbs
two were chums of long standing. and
had done great things al the wickets in
old days, for the honor of Harrow
school. But before this Brady and the
girl had fed. Her word was her bond
she saved Maxwell and she never saw
him again. Chap Book

stung the girl like the stroke of whip,
but it gave her also her opportunity.
She spoke dozen rapid words, and
the Englishwoman uttered little cry
SIS it---true?"
"It is Gods truth, and there is only
half an hour. If you want to save your
husband-and he is yours, all yours
we must save him together. Neither
you nor can do it alone. Are you
ready?"
81 am ready--yes-my hat!"
She ran into the house. Through
the open door the Cir saw her snatch
the child from among its playthings on
the floor, and press it passionately to
her bosom. A light leaped into her
eyes.
"The child" she cried, bring the
child! They are fond of her per
haps-"
They set out, the mother carrying
the baby; but before they hadicovcred
hundred yards she stopped.
"Will you take her% she said, "She
is heavy-we should-get on faster"

ROENTGEN SILHOUETTES.

Yet Really Begun,

Scientific Study of the Subject Has Not
Yet Really Begun.
Up to this time il may be said no ad.
ditional light has been thrown by
American experimenters upon the re.
markable phenomena first discovered
10y Prof. Roentgen, andi in fact it may be
said with equal truth that none of the
sihouettes produced since those first
shown by the discoverer has equaled
his either in distinction of outline or
detail reproduction.
Wonderful as are the results already
obtained, it may be said that the scien.
tific study of the Roentgen waves has
not yet commenced certainly not in
this country. The purely scientific
work has yet to be done, and until then
we must remain in the dark as to the
phenomena which we have thus far
been dabbling with in the most anna
flourish way.
We do not yet know whether the new
waves are longitudinal or transverse.
There are many reasons for supposing
tBs cathode rays to be longitudinal
Jhe Roentgen rays are not cathode
roys-at least they are not cathode
rays in the sense in which the latter
hrve been previously known and de-
scribed, but they seem to emanate from
the glass where the latter has been
made fiuorescent by the impact of the
cathode rays, and the same reasons
that seem to give color to the belief
that cathode rays are longitudinal lend
probability to the fact that the Roent-
gen rays are also longitudinal. We do
not yet know whether these rays are
long or short, nor have we any knowl.
edge as yet as to the velocity of the
propagation. There seems to be n,lm-
Der of reasons for believing that the
rate of propagation is not that of light
THAT it is enormously greater. Max
Wells theory does not give to the ether
the property of longitudinal vibration
or of propagation at greater rate than
10000 miles per second. In both of
these points the Maxwellan ether
failed to account for gravitation. 1t is
not certain that by giving ether the
property of propagation Of energy by
means of longitudinal vibrations would
throw any more light upon the action
of gravity than we now have, although
some leading physicians have thought
that it would.-Electricity

Little old hlrts. who talk OF their "beaux,'
And vie with each other In stylish clothes
Little old bellies. Who Mt nine and ten,

Girls who were merry us lambs ut play,
And laughed and rolllcked tho livclong

AS THEY WOULD BE WRITTEN IN THIS

Now, it came to pass that Il plague
OF wheels fell upon the land, sparing
neither the aged graybcard, tho tod
ding child, nor the shirt waistcd
maiden.
And on the day Of the week known
commonly as Sunday each man gat
him on his wheel and sped into the
country afar from town, nor took no
tice OF the pealing Of the bells Of the
sanctuary.
And the wheels whirlcd afar of.
Then gat together the orators OF
the sanctuarics and said, one to an
othcr
"Wc must do something"
And from Il multitude Of considera-
ti0ns made they this plan:
I Each man OF them should betake
him To distance OF ten miles from
the city and bestrew the highway with
carpet tacks.
And on the following Sunday it was
dune.
And, behold, as each wheelman and
whcelgirl would come to the place OF
the tacks, his tire wound give up the
ghost, and hc or she would halt for
time by the wayside.
Now, on the day after, which wa.
Monday, the orators OF the sanctuar,
gathered aud held counsel in review o
their work.
