rstaiI.m Of s~I.. Guides.

The point of view OF the Swiss
guides is singularly complex one.
Th. ordinary guide is us brave rs n
Boer and his bravery has many OF the
same pcculiarities. He has little sense
of sport: he is ever conscious of the
desperate danger of his calling. and.
while he is willing and anxious To
meet any risk which comes In the nee
essary course of events. he has the
greatest contempt for the man who
seeks the bright eyes OF dangers for
their own sake. He is u bit Of a ia
talist. See" said one. as some trav-
ciers brought down the body Of party
who had died in place as simple as
a city street. death can come as easi-
IS on a light mountain "A difficult
one And again. when the French
guides bungled at their tasks: Those
Arolla men know nothing OF accidents;
for me. when "a man is once dead ]
will carry him as soon as sheep
and SO saying he put one OF the things
on his head and strode down into the
valley where the mules waited for their
burden. A guide OF experience Will
tell you there are only three dangers in
mountaineering stones, sud
den bad weather and the tourist.

sup~nu,,on In Yucatan.

"Apropos of the wonderful ancient
ruins In Yucatan." said New Orleans
college professor. there is one very
fortunate circumstance which has pro-
tectcd them almost entirely from spoli-
alton by the Indians. 1t is currently
believed by the natives all through that
part Of the country that the ruins are
haunted and that devils will carry
away anybody who attempts to molest
them. This superstition has been en-
couraged by explorers. and is better
safeguard than "A picket Of soldiers"

The train due at Paris Junction at
s:35 was ten minutes late on Thanks
giving morning. As 1t halted before
the little station. which stood amid
bare brown fields at the crossing of
the two railroads. u gentleman and n
lady stepped to the platform.
The lady gathered her seaiskin cape
around her and hurried into the depot.
She was plump. mlddle-aged woman
with clear. dark face. When the
gentleman entered the room. she was
addressing the station agent.
How long before the next train
west on the other road!" she asked in
voice OF peculiar sweetness.
The man started and drew nearer.

After a time BARLEY glanced at his
watch and rose to his feet.
II am going to raid the surrounding
country and see what can do in the
way of a Thanksgiving dinner.
Not in this storm" she cried. and
her clear dark eyes fell before his.

The name slipped from him un.

lightly. All eonstraint vanished. Tho
burden Of years seemed 10 have fallen
from them. Suddenly she looked up,
an arch smile eurvins her lips.

She nodded. In an hour they would

Truly this was promising begin

deseendingly repeated both her anu.'s

A moments silence fell between
them. The station agent had retired
to his little den. which contained his
desk. leaving the two travellers In pos
session of the room. There was brisk
FIRE In the stove. and the air was laden
with the fumes OF the soft coal. Aside
from the stove. the sole furniture Of
the room consisted of n wooden bench
which extended along two siles. The
nncurtaincd windows were dinEy and
dirty.
Outside there was only the shining
tracks and the fields. At a little dis
tancc n solitary farmhouse could be
seen.
They were reused by n dash OF froz-
en- sleet against the windows. Bart
ley advanced to the door OF the little
inner room. saying:
II will see II there is not some way
out of our trouble
Left alone, Zoe Freeman drew her
cloak around her and let her mind
wander back to the past. Fifteen
years before she had been the prom
ised wife OF Leon BARLEY. They had
quarreled and. in ut of pique. she
had married Robert Freeman. Wealth
and social position had been hers. but
Freeman soon became a helpless in
valid. and life held little for her save
the cares and duties of n nurse. A
year ago death had set her free.
Leon BARLEY had never married.
They had met occasionally. but never
since Freeman's death.
Here her thoughts were interrupted
by the return Of BARLEY.
1T Ia as you feared. There Is no
way you can reach Latimer before 8.
There are few passenger trains upon
either Of these roads. am very sorry
for your disappointment"
Her face flushed. then paled. We
must wait with what patience we can,"
she said, unconsciously using the plu-
raj.
He brought for her from the inner
room the only chair In the building.
A few moments later the station agent
said:
.'Tm goin' to the house awhile
He strobe away. and they were alone.
Outside the sleet confined to fall. Zoe
turned from the dreary picture framed
by the window with sigh that
sounded strangely like one OF con-
tent.
They talked fitfully. Both avoided
referring to the past. and the present
held little in common for them. Yet
as they talked OF the events Of the
day, of books. and OF people whom
they both knew. an unconscious change
came over them. As In the days OF
old, she was aware Of a tender defer
,sucs shown toward her. a Difference
