CHAPTER XII.

The first hours of the night passed
slowly, heavily away. The bell was not
struck at the regular half hours, but only
when it was time TO call new watch
yet Clarence judged il was about eleven
when he babe Max hold ont his hands.
He had set the blade Of his saw. and only
waited for the opportunity TO use it. He
gazed carefully about the deck. and he
was sure there was no one near the boat.
Carefully he applied his saw TO the swivel
of Winters hand irons. The tiny teeth
took hold keenly upon the soft iron, and
AZ the end Of a minute the swivel was
separated and Max'S hands free.
Wen have to leave the rings on our
wrists and ankles" whispered Clarence;
hut that will do no harm. Eere-now

Max placed { he saw at the proper
place. and though he was somewhat
longer ar the work than Clarence had
been, YET he did it well. The next move
ment was 10 saw off the irons from the
ankles; or. rather. TO saw them apart
and this was done without exciting any
suspicion from the watch. The small hles

MISTAKE of American women,

''In furnishing our chambers, per-
haps, we commit the grossest violations
of the laws of good taste and of good
health at the same time" writes Ed
ward Box, in the Ladies' Home Jour.
nal in plea for the simpler and better
furnishing of our homes. Instead of
keeping sleeping apartment perfectly
simple, putting into it only such articles
as are absolutely necessary, we load
into it a confusing mass of all manner
of useless things which have no place
there. Then we call such a littered-up
room dainty. Truthfully speaking, the
average sleeping-room is mess of
tritfes never brought into use, which
have absolutely no business nor place
there. Whereas sleeping apartment
should have the freeSt circulation of
air, it is almost impossible for a cur
rent Of air to work its way through.
We need not seek to have the barren
ness of the sleeping rooms of monas-
teries or hospitals, and yet there is a
lesson in them by which many might
richly profit. Here health comes in
even before good taste. We can scarcely
keep sleeping room too airy and de-
void of articles Of furniture. Only what
is absolutely needed for actual use
should be in an apartment where we
spend one-third of our lives. The pr
vate chamber is, really, an unerring re-
iection of either wisdom or folly, OF
good taste or bad"

CALLS RUSSIA INslpious.
How the Northern Empire Is Under
mining British Interests in Persia

How the Northern Empire Is Under
mining British Interests in Persia.
The statement that Russia has lent
Persia one million sterling for the pur-
pose of terrifying the Persian gulf
ports, while not entirely credited, has
aroused great uneasiness. Granting
that the Shah starts Terrifying the gulf
ports, it certainly will not be for the
defense of his country against an inva-
sioa by any Arab tribes, but as a de
fensive measure against England, not
withstanding the fact that Britain has
been the true ally and well-wisher of
Persia for generations. and that there
Is no power in the world that Is more
anxious for the integrity os TIE Shah's
dOminions.
1t is an understood fact that Eng
land would sooner see Russia take Con
stantinople than allow her to have an
outlet in the Persian gulf-for the safe
ty of our Indian empire. says the Lon
don Express. Fortifylng Persian ports
at the instigation and expense of Rus
STA, therefore, means that Russia I'M
tends converting them to her own use
sooner pr later. She is making enor-
nous progress in Persia. fact which
seems lately TO have escaped the at
tention of British statesmen; and there
is strong feeling in Persia that still
more important developments are pend.
ing.
The Shah's grand vlzier-the sadra-
zaia, as they call him--has on several
occasions of late shown himself to be
very unfriendly toward England and
very friendly toward Russia. 1t is an
open secret that She relations between
Sir Mortimer Durand and the sadrazam
were anything but cordial when the
former was minister at Teheran. and
the last audience Sir Mortimer had
with him was certainly not of pleas
ant nature.
Sir Mortimer Durand was too mild,
too good, for Persia. We badly require
minister of the type of Sir IL. Drum
mond- Wolfe, who twelve years ago
raised the prestige and power of Brit
air here from the bottom OF the ladder
to the top. Since he was transferred
to Madrid we have steadily and surely
climbed down, and Russian influence
has just as steadily advanced.
