yards away In the dazzling light Of the
rising sun. Old Springfelds did not
carry as do the modern arms. Soldiers
OF those days were not taught accurate
shooting as they are now. 1t was too
far for anything but chance, and all
within . minute or two the direful
tragedy was over, and the red warriors
had darted back behind the ridge from
which they came.

who stood at the side OF the awe

It's what those fiends are hoping
have been planning-that I'll send out
my last man TO the aid OF those al
ready gone, and then they'll dart in
on the fort and what will become of
these?"
Great drops of sweat were pouring
down the colonel's face as he turned
and pointed to the huts where now,
clinging to one another in terror,
many poor wives and children were
gathered, and the air was filed with
the sobbing of the little ones. Up
from the stockade came two young
officers. their faces set and rigid.

colonel" cried the foremost, ''let me
take my men and clear that ridge so
that our people can get back. One
charge will do IL. sir"
But solemnly the commander up
lifted his hand. Listen" said he, ''thc

our poor fellows southwark, away from

'Go back to your post at once, sir.
You may be needed any minute. Look

And as he spoke the colonel pointed
TO the southeast. Over the scene be-
yond the divide TO the south hung the
bank of pale-blue smoke. Out on the
slope lay the CHASTITY remains of the
young adjutant and his faithful COM
rade, who, not ten minutes before, had
galloped forth in obedience 10 their
orders and met their soldier fate. Out
TO the southeast the ridge fell grad
ually away into the general level of the
rolling prairie, and there, full thou
sand yards distant, there suddenly
darted into view three horsemen,
troopers evidently, squirting madly
for home.
They've cut their way through!
Thank God!" almost screamed the
spectators at the parapet. But their
exultation died an instant later. Over
the ridge in swift pursuit came dozen
painted, feathered braves, their pc.

A Recipe for Long Life.

One of the foremost surgeons, who
is a medical adviser to the throne,
was called in to prescribe for lady
friend of mine who is very active in
fashionable life. She was suffering
from nervous breakdown, and he found
her generally out of order in brain.
eyes, heart and digestive organs. I
am going to tell you freely what he
said, though it cost her $50 to hear
him. Il cannot cure you," he said,
"but you can easily cure yourself. All
you have to do is to go to bed at IL
o'clock every night, no matter what
company you are entertaining or what
temptation you have to go out and
stay out late. l do it, and have for
years refused to allow any business
or pleasure to interfere with my
habit. If you don't do it your friend
will say, Mrs. - was clever wom-
an. How we'll she used to entertain
us. But she is dead and gone II you
do it they will have no chance to de-
clare you are dead for many a year
to come. There, that's my prescrip-
ton. You will not follow it, l know,
but it is all have to offer or suggest. "

his teacher at what rate this evapcra-
ton takes place and few will be able
to answer In order to study the force
CT the sun Professor Buchanan has,
according to Nature. devised what he
calls n "Solar Calorimetcr.' By
means Of this apparatus the suns rays
are concentrated by reflector upon
the surface Of silver tube in which
is water, the area of all parts being
accurately measured. Now the heat
from the sun changes the water in
the silver boiler to steam and this IN
condensed by suitable arrangement
and measured Thus by noting the
time required, the area of the various
surfaces and the amount OF water
changed to steam the suns heat can
be calculated.
Observations made Mt Sohag In
Egypt showed that the sun could
evaporate to steam more than seven
teen and a half cubic centimeters of
water per square meter Of surface
per minute. No allowance has been
made for instrumental imperfectlons.
They certainly exist and by making
suitable corrections we find the force
Of the sun per square meter to be
equal to about one horsepower. BY
making suitable calculations the au-
thor reckons that each meter OF the
suns surface emits 5000 horsepower
per minute.
