feeling a lead to anything more un-
less England herself provokes 1t, espe-
cially to believe that this pretended ex-

IS simply idiotic and ridiculous. In

France at any rate is contemplating
nothing of the kind, and in the present
state OF the world a coalition could
not be formed against England with
out France. It is true that for some
time past we have become accustomed
to contemplate the possibility OF a rup-
ture with England. and we have even
made definite preparations in conse-
quence, but we have been compelled to
do this by circumstances that were not
of our seeking. which we have been
reluctant to take into account

Charm IN m
A Frencnman in ElOemfOntein says
that the English ONE there are re-
markable for the cheerful stoicism
with which they endure the anxiety
and discomforts of present conditions.
He INDUCES also, in other comments
that are interesting.
One may observe among English
women" he says, "the same thing
in the matter of ~gracefulness that one
notices among the men in the matter
Of p%oliteness. There is no mean.
Either the English woman is extreme
ly graceful. pretty, elegant and even
recherche or else she is quite ridicc-
lous. III dressed, sharp featured and
plain-the sort of woman for whom
there is no word in the French lam

understand no woman was plain. l

seen certain English women, and
Heine could have seen them
either.
IAN English woman who Is pretty
and clever possesses abundant charm,
but l have seen French women by no
means pretty who have made them

preferred to classic beauties. In Eng

The progress was slow al first, but the

So as Kate skipped on after the
sulky-looking maid, she turned abrupt
ly to the young man, who was lonng-
ing in the doorway furtively watching
her with a faint cynical smile In his
round black eyes,. She was but a
school girl, this young English mees,
hut she was adorably pretty, with a
skin-ah, such lovely white skin
what would not Celestine or Lucie giyo

l wish to speak to you-to remind you
that we are mere acquaintance, and

LEstrange. l am sorry you have
forced me to mention this. | hoped
that you understood It,"
For a moment they stood facing
each other, but her eyes eve quailed
before his; she had spirit and courage, ,
this mere school girl. he recognized,
yet a very evil look came into his face
for a second ere he replied:
and why for not. mademoiselle;

"The Anstruthers are old family

will respect"
DO not be too confident" he NUT

you have no right to resent any

a naughty gesture. II am alone here.
but 1 can appeal to Madame Dubois, as

And she paused irresolutely as his
mocking laugh fell upon her ear.
Bah. mademoiselle, she lives but for
mel" he said. with yelled insolence.
II am master here"
1t was true MoNie's heart was beat
ing uncomfortably fast; the prospect
looked gloomy; but she had plenty of
spirit, and Henri's whole manner was
so detestable that her pride came to
her aid and stilled her fears.
IF l am not treated with ordinary
politeness, and allowed to live in
peace, shall complain tt my tr,ls-
tees" she retorted, with flashing eyes.
"Of no use at ALL" he returned, with
a sweeping bow. Then, coming closer
and laying a small claw-like hand on
her arm: See here, Mol-lee, you are
in my mothers power absolutely for
two years. and she has an awful tenn

Mollie shrank from his touch. from

Ike the man in the parable, she had

swarmed up the sides Of the canyon and
attempted to break In through the founda-

stronger than they had anticipated. ard the
attack failed. Sharpshooters then climbed
the neighboring heights and kept up an
incsssant peppsring of the walls with con-

several machine guns. Ragged holes be-
gan to appear in the walls, and at the
sight OF these the assailants yelled with
delight. 1t was evident that the mill could
not long Withstand so destructive bonn
bardment. II the besiegers had possessed
artillery they would have knocked the
buildings into splinters within twenty
minutes. As it was, they would need a
whole day to win their victory.
Suddenly it became evident that the be-
sieged were about 10 take a hand in the
night Thus far they had not shown them
selves or fired a shot. but now a move
ment was perceived on the roof, and the
projecting arms of some kind of machin-
cry became visible. Many marksmen con-
centrated their fire upon the mysterious
objects. but apparently with little effect.
BlnsS, mounted on a rock, so as to COM
mand clear view of the field, was on the
point of ordering party to rush forward
with axes and beat down the formidable
doors. when there came binding flash
from the roof, something swshed through
the air, and gust of heat met the assail-
ants in the face. Bngs droprei dead from

Instantly the atmospheric broom swept
up and down the canyon and across the
mountains TANKS, and the marksmen fell
in punches like shaken grapes. Nine
tenths Of the besiegers were destroyed
within ten minutes after the first move
ment had been noticed on the roof Those
who survived owed their escape 10 the
rocks which concealed them and they lost

81 think l am paying rather dear for
my whistle" he said, with a characteristic
sneer. to Captain Carter, the commander
of the troop. 1T seems that I must not
only defend my own people and property
when attacked by mob force, but must
also come to the rescue of the soldiers
whose pay rolls are met from my pocket"
The captain made no reply. and DR..
SyX strobe back to the works. When the
released soldiers saw what had occurred
their amazement had no bounds. It was
necessary at once to dispose Of the dead,
and this was no easy undertaking for their
small force. However, they accomplished
it, and at the beginning of their work
made most surprising discovery.
"fiows this. JIM" said one of the men
to mis- comrade, as they stopped to lift
the nearest victim of DR.. Syx's whitening
fire. What's this fellow got all over
him."

Immediately from all sides came similar
ordinations. Every man who had fallen
was covered with a film of the precious
metal as II he had been dipped into an
electrolytic bath. Clothing seemed to have
been cnarred and the metallic atoms had
penetrated the flesh of the victims. The
rocks all round the battlefield were SIM

stuff said the lieutenant. What do
