THE ROENTGEN RMS.

81 tell you. SturciS, it is a wonderful
discovery. ] don't know what applica-
tions may ultimately be made Of it in
other branches Of science, but am
convinced that il is bound to cause a
revolution in surgical diagnosis" said
DR.. Thurston, enthusiastically.
Yes replied Sturgis, II have no
doubt that Roentgens rays will be of
great assistance to the surgeon in the
examination of features and in the To-
cation Of foreign bodies which cannot
be reached by the probe"
"As proof Of that, must show you
a beautiful photograph which l have
just made. After leaving you on New
Years morning, l found a patient
asleep in my Office. He had been wait
ing several hours. 1t was the usual
case of a pistol in the hands of fool
friend, who did not know it was load
ed; and Of course with the usual result
"a bullet wound in my patient"
Sturgis was listening in an absent
minded way while his friend spoke.
THE wound was not severe; no
bones broken. The bullet had entered
the palm Of the left hand and had
passed up into the forearm"
A sudden light came into the report
er's eyes; but he maintained his list
less attitude.

unable to locate that bullet. At last

hoped for, but can hardly say l
expected, a more hospitable recep-
ton"
Miss Murdoch, after the first shock
of surprise, had drawn up her grace
full figure TO its full height, and stood
looking at the young man with undis-
guised contempt in her flashing eyes.
Chatham paused as IL expecting a
reply; and then:
shall 1 explain the object of my
visit before your servant?" he asked,
bitterly.
"You may leave, Mary, until / ring
for you" said the young girl, turning
to the maid.
The woman reluctantly left the
room, casting curious chances upon
her young mistress and her unwel-
come guest as she went.
Chatham made a motion as il to
take chair; but Agnes remained sig
nifcantly standing.
Perhaps" she said, coldly, you
Will De good enough TO explain as
briefly as possible your object in fore
ing your presence upon me in this un-
gentlemanly wayP"
81 suppose my conduct does strike
you as ungentlemanly," said the
young man, piteously; "but what could
I do? / love you devotedly, madly,
and you will not allow me even 10
tell you so. You instruct your serv-
ants TO turn me away from the door
like a beggar. Is 1t crime to love
your"
'No, Mr.. Chatham" said the girl,
more gently, sit is not a crime TO love
a woman; but it is at least a serious
blunder to adopt the method you have
selected of showing your affection,
and it is certainly not generous to
force ii upon her as you are doing"
"What else can / do?" he repeated,
doggedly. Here am suddenly

concluded to try the Roentgen rays,
and here is the result. 1t is as pretty a
shadow photograph as l have yet
seen"
So saying, DIR. Thurston handed the
reporter a photograph, which the lat
ter studied carefully in silence.
Notice how clearly you can see the
peculiar shape into which the bullet
has been flattened," said the physician
Yes" replied Sturgis, 81 was observ-
ing that. Have you a duplicate of this
that you can spare?"
Yes; keep that one If you wish"
Thank you; | am very glad TO have
it. Did you succeed in extracting the
bullet?"

op the photograph first"
"Of course. When do you expect the

HE promised 20 come back yester-
day, but he failed 10 do So" replied
DR.. Thurston. Then, suddenly:

aware of what she was doing; and, in
sudden embarrassment, she with
drew her hand from his reassuring
clasp.
The artist, recalling the object Of
his visit, at once became grave and

~ letter? What letter." asked
Agnes, puzzled
Sprague held out the sealed envel-
ope. The young girl tore it open and
cast a hurried glance at its contents
Then suddenly understanding. she
tore the paper 10 shreds and threw
these angrily into the fire which
burned brightly in the large open
fireplace.
"Oh, that" she exclaimed, CON
temptuously. And then after pause:
"Do you mean to say you thought"
She stopped short, seized by a sud
den shyness.
what else could / think?" said
Sprague, softly.
He was watching the fragments of
paper as they flared upon the hearth
The flame which consumed them
seemed to shed a radiant glow upon
his heart.
"Then," he added, presently, and
still more softly, "if there is nothing
between you andl-and him-perhaps-
perhaps l may hope-Miss Murdoch
Agnes"
His hand sought hers and found it.
But the reaction had come at last,
and the brave girl who had been able
to control herself in the presence OF
a threatening mailman now gave way
TO a fit of hysterical weeping.
Sprague, not being medical man,
could hardly have known what rene
dies to employ in an emergency of this
kind. All he did was to whisper sooth-
ing words in the young girls ear and
TO kiss the tears from her eyes. But
apparently that was enough. EVIDENT
~ for layman he must have possessed
considerable medical intuition; for

A DETECTIVE STORY.


Miss Murdoch was seated at the piano
In the drawing-room, her shapely fin
gers wandering dreamily over the keys,
when a servant knocked at the door.
"A gintleman TO see yer, miss" said
the maid.
"A caller!" exclaimed Agnes, IN sur

give you his card?"
"No, miss. Nor his name, nayther."

Murdoch, in frigid tones. II am sur

Your butler is not at fault in this

way, and before either of the women
could recover from her surprise, a
fashily dressed young man with in
tensely red hair entered the room. He
carried his left arm in a sling. His
face was pale; his eyes glttered with
a feverish light; his voice quivered
with repressed excitement.
