plain all about it before the court, so

Miriam, with her frame trembling and
her brain in a whirl, walked off beside
the officer. He conducted her to po-
lice station near by, and marched her
up to a desk.
"Raise your veilv' commanded the
gruff sergeant.
Miriam obeyed him, and murmur of
admiration came from the crowd of
hangers-on. They had never seen so
beautiful a face in that place before.

Miriam Hermann came the answer,
in tremulous accents.

CHAPTER XIX.

Miriam Hermann still held the money
to redeem her watch in her hand, and
was trying to pass the time by looking
at the bundles ON the shelves, all indica-
tive of pinched poverty and heartless
usury, when the jolice officer who had
answered Ellis summons stepped behind
the wooden screen and confronted her.
''See here, Young woman" he said, II

back, and freeing herself from his touch.

eff you can get me a place to Sleep
said Hannah to Kitty the next day, when
she, too, understood things, ''I'll come
and do the cooking while you all sew, and
we can get on as happy and pleasant as
kittens in basket of WOOL
Mrs. Bines, the landlady, on being ap-
pealed to, said that two more rooms
could be had on the same floor. On her
own responsibility, Hannah, who, to use
her own words. had snug little sum
laid by" secured these rooms at once.
And so the four women entered on a
changed phase of life, without any loss
oe individual respect; and there was
premise that comparative happiness
would crown their industrious and GER
tainly unseldsh efforts.
AS Lem Dodd made daily visits to
Hannah at her sisters, it was impossi-
Bile that he should long remain in ig-
norance sof her change of residence; but
Hannah's sister, being enjoined to Sc
crecv, had hard struggle between her
desir,. to keep promise and her woman
" yearning to put Mr.. Dodd in commu-
nication with young woman whom she
felt SIRE he loved.
By sundry broad hints, Hannah's sis
ter compromised between her conscience
and her feelings, and gave Lem Dodd a
clew. He was an acute, wide-awake
young gentleman, with much decision Of
character and great energy Of action.
One hour after receiving the hints afore-
said from Hanna's sister, Lem Dodd,
with labored breathing, was making in
auiries from Mrs. Bines ON the very high
est landing of the Puella street house.
Kitty introduced Mr.. Dodd as an old
and valued friend He was quite like a
brother, she assured Mrs. Bines. And
Mrs. Bines. strangely enough, liked this
relationship better than if he were quite
like a cousin.
Mr.. Lem Dodd was conducted into the
room where Miriam was working. She
knew him as the warm personal friend
of Paul Neville. In her fight from the
old home, love, as we'll as fear, had
urged her. She could not forget the
handsome young man; nay, through all
her life he would remain the one idol of
her heart, worshiped in solitude and 81
lence. But that barrier which cut her
off from the world. with her mother, cut
her off from him. She had determined
not even to mention his name to Lem
Dodd; but that young gentleman could
not permit this. He had been searching
for two days for Paul Neville-whom he
feared was dead. Now. with that rapid
ity that characterized his utterances, he
told Of his friends absence, and asked if
Miriam or Mrs. Hope had seen him.
OF course. neither had; but when Mi
RAM heard Lem Dodd's stury-and he
told it graphically and with much atten-
ton to details -she staggered into a chair

and che color fed from her cheeks and
the light from her eyes. There was no
need that she should give words to her
agony or explain the cause.
When Lem Dodd rose to leave, Miriam
asked him if he would come soon again
and tell her the news.
II will come every day, if you let me, ;"
replied Lem.
'sAnd you will come cautiously?"
''Oh, I'm the soul Of caution" he re-
piled.
''You must not let Mr.. Cheatham nor
any of his people see you,' she explained
Lem Dodd called for a week, some
times twice a day; but he brought no
news of Paul Neville
At the end of week Miriam, who had
saved little money and had some left
from the sale of her diamond ring, decid-
ed to take her watch out of pawn. Dis
guising herself as we'll as she could, she
went alone to the establishment Of Mr..

''Well, the watch is in the safe of my

Miriam sat down, and the pawnbroker

Democracy%s Trouble with Farmers.
Mr.. Bryan and his followers are hav-

ers that they are worse off in 1900 with
sound money and protection than they
were in 1896. with free trade law in
operation and the shadow Of free silver
impending.
A general comparison Of articles Of
farm consumption and farm production

the farmers are worth five hundred
