beating heavily despite his calm OF
manner, his thoughts reverting to that
we'll known face and the appealing
voice at his window despite his utmost
effort to forget them, Loring found the
general, with his chief of staff aud Cap
tain Stone, busy over kilograms and dis
patches. One of these the general hand
ed to the engineer. Then, as the latter
read, the veteran of three wars arose
from his chair, took the young soldier
by the arm and led him aside, pro-
ceeding that caused Captain Stone to
glance up from the telegram he was
swiftly copying and to follow with an

the adjutant general was observing him.
Then his pen renewed its scratching 1t
was not good that newcomer, young
lieutenant, should be preferred to him,
and it was too evident that between the
general and the engineer was bond Of
some kind the aid could not explain.
DO you understand this?' asked the
general, as he pointed to the letter in
Loring's hand. It was brief enough. 1t
was written by clerk in Burleigh's
Office to fellow clerk in that of the
chief quartermaster at Omaha, and the
latter had felt it his duty, he said, to
inform his immediate superior, who in
turn had laid it before the chief of
staff. 1t read as follows:

Then, with swimming eyes, she had
bemoaned her past, her fatal errors,
her greed for wealth and position that
had led her to stifle her own heart
throbs and deceive the one true friend
she had ever known, and Loring broke
short the conversation by leaving the
room. Then she came again, alone, and
he refused to see her. Then she came
with Mrs. Burton, and the house was
in litter, and he broke up his estab-
lishment and moved back to the hotel,
to the scandal Of his landlord, as has
been said, who made loud complaint to
the powers at headquarters

Loring's mind that night and was up
permost in his thoughts as he stood
there facing his patient commander.
The generals fine clear cut features
clouded with anxiety as he noted the
long silence and hesitation. Again he
spoke, with grave yet gentle reproof in
his tone

Loring stood looking gravely, straight
into the face of his superior. Swiftly
his thoughts sped back to that SOFT
warm evening when he and the rector
slowly assembled the gentle grade toward
Mrs. Burton's homestead, and there was
unfolded before his eyes that picture he
was destined never to forget-the lovely
tints of the clear northern sky, the broad
valley of the river, with its bluffs and
hillocks, the dark forms, slender and
graceful both, coming nearer and nearer
until in startled recognition of one at
least he halted i'll dumb amaze and
therefore caught but fitting glimpse of

what had passed before, he met her in
stern silence. On his generosity, his
magnanimity, she threw herself She
had deceived and wronged him in ever
engaging herself to him, she said, and
would have gone on to say more.
"That is all past and done WITH" he

And then it transpired that good Mr..
Lambert had been the means of secur-

that Naomi had gone to enter on her

THE MAD BARBER
They Were All Shaved by Him Very
Neatly and without
Scratch.

There were five of us hunting and
fishing in the Queensland bush, when
one rainy day stranger appeared, says
o writer In Public Opinion. He said he
was a tramp barber; and as none of us
had been shaved for q fortnight we
gave him half days work. About four
hours after he had left us band of six
men rode up, and the leader inquired
If we had seen tall, roughly-dressed
man pass that way. We told him of the
barber, and he looked from man to
man and exclaimed: Good gracious,
but you are all freshly shaved" "Yes,
we gave the barber job" "And he
shaved everyone of you?" ''IIe did, and
did 1t WE'LL" "Boys, do you hear that?"
shouted the man, as he turned to his
companions. "What of it?" asked one
of our party. "Why, he went mad yes
terday, and killed man in barber's
over at Unadilla; and we're after him
to put him in an asylum" They rode
away at a gallop and next morning re-
turned to our camp with the man, who
had been captured after hard fight.
and was tied on his horse. He seemed
to remember us when he was given a
drink of wateri and as he handed the
cup back he quietly remarked: 81 say,
gentlemen, please excuse me. 1 meant
to finish off the last man Ishaved, but |
got thinking of something else and it
slipped my mind"

BAPTIZED IN A BATHTUy.
Invalid Woman Anxious 20 Observe
the Ordinances Of the
Church.

A West side woman who Is an in
valid has become q church member aft
er being baptized in a bathtub. At the
unpretentious home Of the sick woman
the neighbors gathered to witness the
simple service that marked the con-
secration Of life to the cause of Chris
tianity Denied the privilege of going
to house of worship by reason of her
afIllction, the good woman asked that
the rites OF baptism be administered to
her in her own home, says.the Chicago
Chronicle.
The family bathtub was brought
from the rear of the house and placed
in the room where the sick woman
lay upon her bed. 1t was then filed
with water and the preacher began the
service. Leaving her bed, the sick
woman, unassisted, walked across the
room to where he stood. The face,
though showing the signs of illness,
was lighted up with smiles that seemed
to show the consciousness of doing
what she believed was right. The
preacher then said the baptismal words
and she was gently put beneath the
water.
