voice to assist. Una plays beautifully"
"Una| asked Rhena.
Eyes, Miss vasplaine. 1t comes nat
ural for me to call her Una of course.
We were girls together. and BESIDES"
added Louise, with short laugh,
"since her recent engagement to my
brother Stuart it seems more natural
than ever. Well, I'm sorry you cannot
come. We would have enjoyed hearing
you sing"
"You are kind to think of me, and
am grateful for it." replied Rhena. The
closest observer could not have detect
ed any special emotion in her voice and
manner. She Impressed even Louise,
with that lie about Stuart warm on her
lips. MS possessed. even In those dingy
surroundings and in the army garb. Of
a grace and refinement that very few
persons could equal. Louise felt like

room with conventional Good even
Ing. Miss Dwight. So sorry to think
you cannot favor us"
Out on the street Louise murmured
TO herself. II was pretty sure she
would refuse to come, and don't think
sheSis the person to lead Stuart on aft
err that little bit Of previous informa-
ton about Una" She smiled and set
Lcr face for home. walking briskly
through the now fast falling snow.
To any one familiar with the charac-
ter of Louise Duncan her call on Rhe-
M Dwight and her falsehood Us to
Stuart's engagement were perfectly
easy to understand. 1t measured the
extent of Louise's petty, narrow ideas
Of life and all Its meaning. She had
observed enough of Stuart's manner
of late to feel sure that his feeling for
Rhena had become more than senti-
ment. and 1t was the last thing In the
world that she wanted. II she could
prevent any attachment with Saliva

any way short Of being found out In
deceit: hence her lie to Rhena. How
would she ever know? To be sure
Rhena was an experienced woman In
the ways Of society. and she might have
been on her guard IL she had known
Louise. But the sister of Stuart had
left an impression of kind heartedness
with the former society leader, and
Rhenn felt, as she said, grateful for
the apparent sincerity which would
recognize her present position in Cham
plon rs emitting her to place still In
polite society.
Rhena did not light her lamp after
Louise went out. She sat by the win
dow, looking out on the falling snow.
When the time came to go out for the
meeting, which was held regularly In

the nights had become stormy, she
shivered with the cold. Her lips nov

PLANS GOOD AND BAD.
"You are surprised to see me, Miss
Dwight" said Louise, taking the seat
Rhena had placed for her. 81 am Miss
Duncan, Stuart Duncan's sister"
Yes, | know you are. have seen
you walk past the hall several tines"
said Rhena quietly. She had not the
lremotest idea of the purpose of
Louise's call.
I'VE are going to have little COM
pany ut the house next week, and we
would be glad to have you come" said
Louise boldly, looking straight mt Rhe-
ma. II thought 1t would be less formal
to call and invite yon personally than
to send note"
Rhena looked over at her caller in
the utmost establishment. She did not
know Louise at oil. She had never
met her in society in the old days be-
fore leaving everything for the army,
and she thought Louise. knowing her
story, might suppose she would posi-.
bly, enjoy a taste of the old life again.
The face in the fur trimmed hat look
ed very pretty, and Rhena felt kindly
toward 1t.
"Thank you,' she answered gently.
II appreciate your kindness. hut 1t is
impossible. I cannot go. have shut
the door upon my old life. do not
wish to open 1t again." She was silent.

The distress and suffering in miners
families are increasing very fast"
"I'm sorry you cannot come" said
Louise. She rose slowly to go. "Stu-
art speaks of you occasionally, and
thought perhaps 1t would please him to
invite you.'' The girl watched Rhena
carefully. Rhena did not change color.
She stood like a statue. pale and still.
Louise continued: "And thought prob.
ably you might feel like coming to the
informal affair we have planned. We

house. Rhena was in. and Louise was
directed to her room. She Knocked,
and Rhena herself opened the door.
She did not know Louise at first, as
the light in the passageway was dim.
When she did fully recognize the face
and figure with its rich setting of cost
ly furs. she at first colored slightly.
Then she asked her to come in. Louise
entered, and Rhena closed the door
after her. Outside the snow was be-
ginning to fall very fast, and the short
winter day was deepening its twilight
about the town of Champion.

1t was an American, so the story runs,
who visited the shrine Of the grand lama
in the Himalayas, where the sacred lamp
that was never to be extinguished burned
upon the altar. The American remarked
to the priests, $50 this lamp never goes
out" and the priests replied, "No, it
will be kept alive forever. 1t has not
gone out for three thousand years" 4"
Whereupon, SO the story runs, the Amer
lean bent down, blew with all his might,
extinguished the sacred lamp, to the hor-
ror Of the priests, and while they speech
lessly contemplated the sacrilege, dryly
remarked, well, guess it's out nov!''
From Chicago comes the report that a
resident Of that city has invented light
which burns forever in a hermeticallv-
cloced globe. If the Chicago report is
true, it affords new illustration of the
law Of compensation, and one of these
American lamps that cannot be extin-
guished by the breath and that never
goes out ought to be sent to the Hima-
layan shrine Of the grand lama.

WHAT A SWITCHMAN DOES.
He is the Artful Dodge of the Rail-
road Profession.

He is the Artful bod ger of the Rail-
road Profession.
According to writer in the Century a
railroad switchman is often in peril of
his life.
The poetry of motion surrounds with
halo those who move. The stage driver
and the locomotive engineer have local
following and are worshipped from afar
by host Of adm irers. It is the engine
man who gets the credit for the fast
runs, not the fireman who keeps the en-
gine in steam, or the mechanical engineer
whose brain devised the improvements in
the machine. The master mechanic and
the roundhouse foreman, whose careful
attention an6 a good discipline keep the
engine in order, receive only negative
amount of credit; if anything goes wrong
they hear of it. The fireman comes in
for some of the glamour and glory, for,
like the conductor, and brakeman, he
"switch in the yard are also among the
elect for their vocation brings them con-
stantly in the face Of death.
A "switchman" to the rank and file is
not the "switch-tender' who merely
throws switches" for approaching trains.
A ''switchman throws switches" but not
ively he "cuts 'em off, (uncouples cars),
'goes after 'em' (sets brakes) and tiles
'em together" Couples cars). He is as
artful a dodger Of flying cars as is his
PONY (switch engine) Of seemingly in
Vulnerable trains.

pay rolls as yard conductor" but the
men cling to the old appellation of "fore-
man" or "pony conductor" His assist
ants, to whom his word is law, are off,
cially designated 'yard brakemen," an
appropriate title, which has failed thus
far to supplant the good old-fashioned
term "helDers,''

the latter crack like pistol shot when
