A BABYLONIAN BRICK.
Record OF Domestic Incident i'la
Aerved I'm One of the Per-
ishnbIc Tablets.

1t is marvellous what mass OF de-
tailed information has come down to
us III the form of pcrishablc brick tab
let's inscribed, or rather stamped be-
fore firing. with minute and comDli-
Gated inscriptions and preserved in he
buried libraries beneath the mounds
of the Tigris and Euphrates valley.
Prof. Sayce is able, for instance, saws
the London Saturday Review, TO tell us
from one OF these tablets how "a w!d-
ow brought an action before the royal
Judges TO recover her husbands pre- D.
crty. She stated that after their NOR
riage she and Ben Hadad- Nathan had
traded together and that a house had
been purchased with portion of her
dowry. This house, the value OF which
was as much as 40 manehs. 50 shekeIs.
or 4 62 los, had been assigned to- her In
perpetuity. The half-brother now
claimed everything, including the
house. The case was tried n Babylon
before six judges in the ninth year OF
Nabonidus. and they decided in favor
Of the plaintiff" for woman's dowry
was her own property. This might be-
an extract from the law reports of the
Times. and other details OF ancient
Babylonian and Assyrian life are not
less precise. ''In the reign of Ammi.
zadok three men rented a field for
three years on terms OF partnership,
agreeing 10 give the owner during the
FIRST two years one CUR OF grain upon
each acre. The whole OF the third hsr-
vest VAS TO go 10 the leSsees and the
partners were to divide the crop in
equal shares on the day Of the harvest"
This seems pleasant kind Of agree
ment, worthy Of imitation. The thSd
year free Of rent must have been de-
lightfu.

For that l thank you. And now

1T matters little" she said Mt
length. But when he was gone she
reviewed her action with growing
wonder. What possessed me-what
influenced me to yield so much:" she
asked herself ever and over. She was
too young to know that mystery
was involved in that question as old
as the human race.

CHAPTER TX

The momentary happiness which
his unexpected impression upon
Frances brought to Holbin soon gave
place to jealous rage. 1t was impos-
sible for him 10 rest satisfied. He
told himself that the war was ON.
that he had been wonderfully success
full in his contact with the secret foe.
and that victory was still possible.
He went forth blindly into the city.

wounded man. but, of course. no ex-
PLANTATION was Forthcoming, for the
reason that no one knew of such N
man. At dark he sought the police-
man whose beat was nearest the
BrooLin residence.
Pistol shot? oh. yes: he had heard
pistol shots every night since the war
fever came on; the town was fun
of excitement. And the officer re-
membered also that recently "A car
riage had been twice driven furiously
upon his street near daylight-the in
cident had impressed him because the
hour was that in which the CITY was
usually quietest. He had been I'M

satisfied himself with the reflection
that some sudden illness had rpade

asked. us there anything wrong
afoot"" Raymond assured him that
there was not and passed on. leaving
the officer convinced TO the contrary.
All the facts Holbin had gathered now
confirmed Louise, but he had reached
the limit of his powers except in one
direction. Nanny" was the last wit
ness. and he hesitated long because
OF her relation to Frances. Finally. in
desperation he privately summoned
her to his room. The woman stood
looking curiously at him as he
charged back and forth across the
floor until he paused and confronted
her.
You are called NANNY, 1 believe"
he said, sternly.
Yes, sah!" Nanny was startled
and amazed.
You are. of course. aware that Won
