A strange. cold shiyer went through
the marquis as a dreadful thought
flashed home.
He remembered how he had met Ju-

toned him about the demure minia-
ture painter; how she had bitterly ex-
claimed that the little girl OF his for
mer acquaintance had now grown up
into a charming little woman. Good

terrible Spanish hatred had extended

Not infrequently a young woman
nnds 1t necessary to launder a shirt
waist at home for some emergency
when the laundryman or the home SER
want cannot do II. Hence these direc-
uons for ironing the waist: To iron
summer shirt waists so that they will
look like new It is needful to have
them starched evenly with Defiance
starch. then made perfectly smooth
and rolled tight In damp cloth, to be
laid away two or three hours. When
ironing have bowl OF water and
clean piece OF muslin beside the iron
Ing board. Have your iron hot, but
not sufficiently so to scorch, and abso-
lutely clean Begin by ironing the
back. then the front, sides and the
sleeves. followed by the neckband and
the cuffs. When wrinkles appear ap-
ply the damp cloth and remove them.
Always iron from the top OF the waist
to the bottom. II there are plaits in
the front iron them downward, after
hrst raising each one with blunt
knife. and with the edge OF the Iron
follow every line OF stitching to give II
distinctness. After the shirt waist is
ironed II should be well aired by the
fire or in the sun before II is folded
and put away, says the Philadelphia
Inquirer.

CHATTER XIII.
..O'er land and Sea. .


Again the man from Scotland Yard
was put in charge. and bent his ener-
giles to discovering what had become of
those they sought.
The trail finally led them to the
water, and then they knew the crisis
was near
In all his life Jack Overton never
suffered such wretched pangs of re-
morse ami despair as came upon him
while they looked Out upon the dark
waters where the stars We're reflected
upon myriads of little waveiets. and
considered what a trackiess waste the.
sea might be.
The detective at last secured positive
news.
Those they sought had gone to sea
in a small steamer that had evidently
been awaiting their arrival.
There was only one thing to do
follow.
Given a feyerish anxiety to be afioat,
and unlimited capital. in seaport one
need not search very long for the craft.
The detective soon had them aboard a
little craft that was used In the coast
ing trade. a stanch and speedy boat.
such as would answer their purpose
admirably.
Out of the harbor and away.
About daybreak OF the second day
the wind blew great guns. and they
found themselves in a storm
The storm was at its height about
noon. and as they had been blown far
out of their course. no one might say
when the port of santander would be
reached. although the captain made
some sort of prophecy the under GER
tain conditions they would bring up
there by the second night.
At sundown the storm still ragged
and the gallant little steamer struggled
desperately to hold her own.
During the night. between the cat
maps he secured, the marquis was i'm
pressed with the belief that the vessel
did not pitch and toss so violently and
upon making an observation found
that the clouds had parted, leaving
clear sky overhead.
Upon reaching deck he found every
thing lovely.
The sea had subsidized almost entire
ly and a fresh morning breeze was
commencing to stir its surface into
myriads of laughing wavelets.
About noon the captain called their
attention by means OF the glass to far
distant land to the south, which he
declared to be the northern coast of
Spain. showing that they were now
trayersing the romantic Bay of Biscay,
known to the natives as the Gulf of
Gascogne.
Thus there was now fair chance,
the captain promised, that before mid
night they would be at anchor In the
harbor OF Santander.
How like lead dragged the hours as
they steamed directly toward the bea-
con!
But all things must end, and finally
they entered the harbor, where other
vessels lay at anchor, and the captain
soon had their mudhook fastened in
Spanish soil.
1t was perhaps ten minutes later
when the marquis appeared at Liver
more's elbow as the latter stood at the
rail surveying the lights of the town.
and said in hoarse whisper:
Make no outcry. my friend; control
yourself and listen. Our captain is
ready to take his oath tnat the steamer
dimly seen on our quarter yonder is the
boat that left Dover, and which we
have chased over the seat
The words of the marquis electrified
Livermore- All his lassitude seemed
to suddenly vanish.
