that the ball I found in him was the
cause of his death, but l cannot, of
course, swear that the ball came from
that other revolver"
"Well, that will dc" said the solicitor,
and he turned TO Redding. '"The wit
ness is with you," he added, with an
easy smile, full of confidence.
Redding got to his feet slowly.
81 don't know, your honor" he said,
that I can think of anything just now
to ask the Witness" and he stood nerv-
ously pinching his nose as he leaned
against his chair and rocked back and
forth, a defeated look spreading over
his face. However, he soon pulled him
self together.
"You say, DOCTOR" he asked, that
you are not ready to swear that ball
came from the revolver of the pris-
oner?'
Before answering, the witness, who
still fingered the bullet, took up Harris
revolver and fitted the ball into the
end of the barrel. Then Ronald, whose
eyes were on his face, saw him start
and turn pale, as he hastily put down
Harris revolver and picked up the other.
He was nervously trying to place the
bit of lead into its end when, with an
exclamation of establishment, Redding
strobe to his side and stood watching
him with widening eyes. Ronald saw
a broad smile spread over Readings
face, and then he came back to his place
flushed with triumph. Ronald was nom
plused. Redding seemed electrified as
he bent down and put his lips to his ear.
"Thank God, my boy" he whispered,
I'm goin' to wipe up the ground with
'em. Damn 'em, 1 won't leave whole
rag on 'em!"
To the prisoners surprise, he re-
sumed his nonchalant attitude on the
back of his chair, which he hitched
about until he had secured his bal
ance. The magistrate looked bored, as
he smiled over at Wrinkle. The solicitor
was engaged in conversation with Thad
Williams and did not seem to note the
bewildered attitude of the witness on
the stand.
"You are sure that the bullet in your
hand was the one that caused Sydney
Harris death?" questioned Redding.
! Hes already sworn that put in the
squire, sharply; 1--WE must not go over
the same ground twice. 1t will take
all day to get through
cts important enough for i'm to
swear it twice, your honor" said Red
ding, calmly, and then, as he contin-
ued, his eyes began to flash and his
voice rang out so clear and loud that
the solicitor looked up in establishment.
':Dr. Sloan, is it not your opinion that
the ball in your hand could not possibly
have come from the revolver belonging
to my client?''
There was profound stiffness in the
big room. 1t was broken by an impul-
sive guffaw from the solicitor. who
shot an amused glance at Redding, as
if he thought that lawyer had taken
leave of his senses. And then the So
licitor noted the white, rigid express
sion on the face of the witness and his
smile died away.
eve are waiting on you, DR.. sloan,"
said Redding. calmly.

Fable of the Small Bird.

Once upon a time there was bantam
rooster with an immense opinion of him
self, and as he stood in the barnyard he
said
II will make stir in the world. l will
attract attention"
Wherefore he began to crow Justify, al
though he had nothing much to crow
about.
Now it happened that far above the ban
tam hawk was wheeling in the circum-
ambient air. The hawk had not seen the
bantam, owing to the latters diminutive
proportions, but when the bantam crowed
the hawk heard and in about 43 seconds
had his claws full and was contentedly
winging his flight homeward, while all was
still below
