TO BE CONTINUED.

THE DATE OF EAsTER.-A question
that has been often answered., what
fixes the date of Easter each year, and
why isn't it, like Christmas, the same
date every year?
Easter is the first Sunday after the
full moon that occurs on or next after
March 21; and if the full moon fall on
the 2lst, Easter is the next Sunday.
OF course if the date were the same
each year, the day would be Sunday
only once in six years. Some OF the
early Christians did fix the date in this
way, while others used the present
way. But in the year 325 the matter
was brought by Constantine before the
council of Nice, and it was evidently
thought best that the anniversary OF
the event which changed the Sabbath
from the seventh day of the week to
the first day should always fall upon
the first day for they, deciding between
the two ways then in use, selected for
the whole church the method which
would bring Easter always on Sunday.
Since that decision Easter cannot
fall earlier than March %, nor later
than April 25 in any year. These
dates are called the "Easter Limits"
Easter occurred on March % in
1918, but cannot come again on that
day until 2285.

CHAPTER XIV.
A CONSULTATION.

Commander Brett was not able to re-
port his interview with Mr.. Keighley
Gates to Miss Fenton until the follow
ing day. The mornings post had
brought a letter from his friend Wray,
and with this in his pocket he proceed
ed to De We're Gardens.
well. Duncan, have you brought
any news?" Mabel asked anxiously,
when lovers greetings had been ex-
changed.
Indeed have, dear, and somewhat
surprising news too. 1t was Gates him
self who substituted the photograph for
Lady Florences in the album"
."Mr. Gatesl What in the world did
he do it for?''
"That is what l should very much
like to know myself. AS a matter Of
fact, be told me he had not done So
told me emphatically, and without be-
ing asked the question. Afterward ]
learned at Scotland Yard that he was
the very man who did it."
"How strangel What possible inter
est could Mr.. Keighley Gates have in
the matter2"
"That do not know-in fact, know
very little Of the man. He was friend
Of Georges, was he not?"
"An acquaintance-hardly a friend.
George met him at some club or other,
and found him interesting. They had
one or two tastes in communicating,
big game shooting, and hunting, and

bezia for elephants; but I don't fancy
George really liked the man, or be
would have jumped at the idea."
"Then you know Of nothing that
would connect him in the faintest way
with the present trouble?"
Nothing. But stopl You remember
he was here on the day Of the murder
it was then, indeed, he noticed the
dagger that led to suspicion falling or
George. That day be spoke to George
about his infatuation for Harriet Sta
Piles, and urged him to break with her.
He had never alluded to the subject be-
fore, and George considered be haG
taken a great liberty in doing so at all
and he told him so. George was very
much annoyed, I remember, and ht
spoke to me about it before he left the
house that evening""
"Did Gates give any reason for men
tioning the matter?"
"He said he did it out of pure friend
ship for George"
This was certainly news. Brett knew

The SECRET OF SUCCEss.-Here is
the secret of success, done up in a
small parcel Look most to your
spending. No matter what comes in,
if more goes out you will be poor al
ways. The art does not consist in
making money, but in keeping it.
Little expenses, like mice in a barn,
when they are many make great
waste. Hair by hair the head gets
bald straw by straw the thatch comes
off the cottage; drop by drop rain
comes into the chamber. A barrel is
soon empty if the tap leaks but drop
a minute. When you mean to save
begin with your mouth there are
many thieves down the red lane. The
ale jug is a great waste. In all things
keep within compass. In clothes choose
suitable and lasting stuff, and no taw-
dry ineries. To be warm is the main
thing; never stretch your legs further
than the blanket will reach, or you
will soon be cold. A fool may make
money, but it needs a wise man to
spend it. Remember, it is easier to
build two chimneys than to keep one
going. If you give all to back and
board there is nothing left for the saw
ings bank. Fare hard and work while
you are young, and you will have a
chance to rest when you are old. A
penny saved is penny earned.

SPANISH JUSTICE.
A Remarkable Instance Given BY New
York Lawyer.

u
York Lawyer.
"Talk of Spanish devotion to form
and formality, said Counsellor ]. A.
Beall, of No. $50 Broadway, the other
day, 'it is in their courts that you must
look for the perfection of it.
"a friend of mine gave me this in
stance of it which he vouched for on
personal knowledge of the case: A
rich Spaniard who had a spendthrift
son made will leaving all his wealth
to the local chapter of the Jesuit Or
der and directing them to give to his
son, after his death, as much of it as
they desire.
"He died and the estate was found
to be half a million of pesetas. The
Jesuits took into consideration that
the young man was spendthrift, and
so they gave him only 1000 pesetas.
The young man went to law.
"The lawyer made this argument be-
fore the court: The testator wished
his son to have of the estate as much
as the Jesuits desired the Jesuits
have demonstrated that they desired
49s, 900 pesetas; therefore that is right
ly the young mans share, and as he
has only received 1000 pesetas, ask
that your honor direct the society
to pay him over the remaining 49S,-
000.'
"And the judge solemnly decided
to do that very thing"

But let me read you exactly what he
SAYS about him: Il never saw Robert
King, the duke's stepson, so cannot
give you description first hand, but I
am told he was a fair youth, with light
almost red-hair. There was a
scar across his forehead, the result of a
fall against thb bar Of crate when a
mere child. This soar was noticeable
when he was grown up, and do not
think will have left him. He was tall
-nearly six feet. No. he had not lost
an arm. Beyond this am afraid I can
tell you nothing Of his personal appear
ance.
Mabel listened intently.
"Then it must have been the actor,
Lambert, who was her brotherl" she
exclaimed.
Precisely. He lost an arm some
time after leaving them"
The terrible anxiety Of the past few
weeks was telling severely on Mabel,
and today Brett noticed with alarm how
pale and i'll she looked. She was thor
oughly unstrung, and while they were
discussing the next move to be taken
she broke down altogether and sobbed
pitifully. Brett tried with all lovers
resources to soothe her, but his tender
words and caresses were in vain.
"It is all 80 hopeless, Duncan-so
terribly hopeless. In another week there
will be the trial, and with all your
work what particle Of evidence have we
that will weigh one feathers weight
with the juryT"
Brett could only kneel at her side and
dumbly caress her hands, while great
sobs shook her frame. Then he pulled
himself together with an effort, and
seating himself by her drew her gently
to him.

while a smile of malignant joy that
would have done credit to Mephistophe-

round his thin lips. "Yes, I'll clip your

Mr.. Gates drew paper and pen toward
him, and, still beaming contentedly,
wrote:

He addressed the letter to an obscure
street 6. E., and then, at peace with
himself, he went to bed.
1t was evening before he was aroused
from his slumbers. DR.. Fitzgerald had

never-to.be. forgotten Sunday morning,
when the formidable feet of Admiral
Ceryera was completely destroyed.
We rambled through the ship at will
seeing her big guns which did such
terrible execution at Santiago; her
honorable scars of battle, now barely
visible; the spot where the Seaman
Ellis was killed by 6-inch projectile
which struck him in the mouth while
be was taking the distance to one Of
the enemies ships, at the command of
Admiral schley the ships mascot,
"Billy Boy" the goat, and laughed
heartily at an honest tar's confession
as to how he felt when 6.inch shell
whirred just over his head.
From here we sailed over to the
wreck of the Maine. The flag on the
tilted mast was at half.mast, and the
fighting top profusely decorated. with
floral naval emblems, as it was the an
niversary of the day upon which the
ship was fatally destroyed by some
mysterious explosion.
I looked at the blackened, pitiful
ruins, and thought of the time when
had seen her in all her pride and glory,
spotlessly white, fitted with every ap-
pliance of destruction, "a Mistress of
the Sea, A GODDESS of War"
The wreck was covered with SOL
diers and sailors, and as we came with
in 100 yards of it, we could plainly
hear the blows of hammers, for the
men had come prepared, as every loose
piece of iron or>wood that escaped the
fire, has long since disappeared. We
scrambled over the ruins, collecting
relics for about half an hour, and I
would have gladly remained longer,
but some of the party got hungry, and,
of course, had to return.
I send you piece of wood, charred
as you can see by fire, which cut my
self from the burned, twisted and al
most submerged deck of the Maine.
Yesterday tried for the third time
to 90 through Moro Castle; but the
cleaning out of the cells, dungeons
and passages, left clogged with filth by
the Spaniards, had not been completed,
and besides several cases of yellow
fever had broken out there, and so we
were again disappointed; but am
going again tomorrow with party of
officers, and this time trust TO meet
with better success.
I will write again In few. days, tell
ing of what I saw at a Cuban all.day

cemetery, and at the funeral of Gen.

CHAPTER XIII.
PLANNING AN ABDUCTION.

PLANNING AN AbOOSlASN'
Most Of what follows learned after
ward from various sources, but for sake
of continuity it is told here.
Yes, one or two little incidents had
served to annoy Mr.. Keighley Gates that
morning. His letters, in the first place,
had been far from satisfactory, and then
there was DR.. Fitzgerald s visit. He had
not come by appointment, and it was
evident from his reception, that he was
not welcome.
"Oh, it's you, is it?" said Mr.. Gates,
ungraoiously, when he entered. II did
not hear you knock.
"No more did I-knuokles out Of or
der-umbrella handle loose-all sorts of
reasons if required.
1--we not the slightest doubt of it.
Well, what do you want with me!
Don't beat about the bush.
DR.. Fitzgerald gave his silk hat a
loving polish with a gaudily colored
handkerchief and then deposited it gin
gerly on the table. He hung up his um-
brella ON the mantelsbelf, carefully
pulled off his gloves, folded them up
and pocketed them, and finally, after
some deliberation, deposited himself in
the easiest chair in tho room, from
which, with elbows resting on the arms
of the chair, hands clasped in elegant
manner and one leg swung negligently
over the other, he blandly surveyed Mr.
Keighley Gates
II hope you are quite comfortable

"Why, bless my soul, oit is! Who'd

Gates smiled amiably, and DR.. Fitz-

details had been discussed.

gave his name as Glasher, waited upon
Mr.. Gates. As a result Of two satis-
