GG-sk>AO side of that of the sick
man and )bbed.
A week after the arrest Of DR..
Squires l was watching by the bed
side OF my master. Suddenly he opened
his eyes and etared hard at me. A
look of recognition seemed to enter
them. l did not speak. but returned
his glance steadily.
You here?" he said suddenly. What
are you doing here?"
I thought he was wandering in his
mind, and so did Miss Stetson, who
smoothed out his hair and said gently:
"You mustn't talk, Charles. You
must rest quietly"
But he did not notice her. His eyes
were still fixed upon me.
"why Is it we meet so often?" he
added Are you logging my foot
steps?"
NO" replied. not knowing what
else to say.
when I met you that first night,
gave you one-third OF the goods and
told you I never wanted to meet you
again. why do you persist in running
across me, - IL it accidentT
Yes" replied. beginning to divine
his meaning. ut is pure accident"
"And | saved you that other night
from the doctors hounds. That should
make you little indebted to me. II
you appreciate that, you will never
meet me again"
Il hope never shall"
spoke In earnest then. for 1t was
not my master who was talking, but
the hypnotized robber and burglar
whom | had twice encountered in his
midnight prowlngs.
The doctor, who had come in said
he was wandering in his mind, but l
knew differently. His other self, which
Dr. Squires had created out Of him,
was talking Would that other self
predominant and possess the body of
Charles Goddard, my master?
/ He soon relapsed into his former
quietness. About midnight the doctor
said change would soon come. We
watched critically every line OF his
! face and forehead,
There are signs of his recovering
consciousness" the doctor said finally.
"He will probably remember nothing
about all that has occurred. His hyp-
motto state is all blank to him, and 1t
must never be mentioned to him. He
is as pure and innocent of crime as
any of us. Let him never think other
wise. The whole story can be hushed
up. If he knew it all, the shock might
kill him"
The climax Of the fever was reached
shortly after o'clock in the morning.
The breathing slowly lost its labori-
BUSINESS, and the hands grew moist
and soft, The eyelids finally tiuttered
and opened. He looked around a mo
ment in silence; then he said softly:
Belle. dear, I've had such horrible
dreams. but they were nothing but
dreams were they?"
NO. Charles: nothing but dreams
nothing bat horrible drea ms"
She bent over him with admirable
| composure, but tear trickled down
and splashed on the pillow as she
kissed his lips.

In about five minutes the former
seemed to have found what he wanted
and said:
Now, if you will take seat in the
chair, Charles, will hurry up, so you
can return home early and have a
good sleep. 1t is rather late now-aft-
err H."
He looked at his watch as he spoke,
and my master took n seat in large,
comfortable operating chair. He threw
himself back into it and closed his eyes
for moment.
Now, Charles, look at me and yield
yourself to my influence" DR.. Squires
said. Remain in as passive n condi.
ton as possible"
My master sat up and looked dream
lily at the man, while the doctor slowly
made passes before his eyes.
He was hypnotizing him not against
his will, but with his full consent.
Miss Stetson breathed hard and with
difficulty restrained scream. placed

Examining Board. These men who
wished a higher standard of life got
control of the Examining Board. The
railway companies owning the coal
lands must compete with the indepen-
dent owners, and so the contest went
on. In 1900, the Presidential election
coming on, the miners in the Wyom-
ing Valley fields won because it was
thought that peace on both sides would
be better pending the casting of the
votes. The victory of 1900 has encour-
aged the.miners to hope that they may
win this fight, too; and when the end
shall come, who knows?
All! who of us does not feel that if
there were a little more of the Golden
Rule practised down in Pennsylvania,
this state of things would not be?
Who of us does not realize that il the
brotherhood which Jesus taught were
little more in the mine-shaftS and
less in economic theories, there would
not be SO much grinding of the faces
of the poor. o God, help this nation
to tremble when it considers the fate
Of those nations that are not because
they forgot God. You may call it
speculation, you may call it ''sowing
ones wild oats" you may call it
''conjugal dishonesty" put on beauti-
full robe, fasten the gauzy wings, place
it in positions a power, call it by eu-

Multitudes are singing the praises

making so many sick people we'll and
weak people strong by digesting what

Mrs Crantill, of Troy, l. T., writes:

EXCERPT FROM A SER
MON PREACHED ON SEPTEMBER q.

We all loathe the crawling worm.
1t is disgusting to us. We shrink
from it, we abhor it. We tread it ruth
lessly beneath our feet. Perhaps it is
easier to state this as fact than to
tell the reason why it is so. 1t is an
Unborn instinct, we say. Well, God
takes this Unborn instinct and applies
it to spiritual truth. Sin in it's lowest
forms is disgusting to us. We abhor
it, we shun it, we tread it beneath
our feet; but when sin puts beauteous
garments on, when it comes with
mincing gait and heavenly suggestions,
we are entranced and fall as willing
votaries to worship at his feet. Satan
like roaring lion goeth about seek
ing whom he may devour. All! if
Satan always went about as roaring
lion, we should never be crushed I'M
der his rending paw; but he more Oft
en- appears as a very angel of light,
and his ways are so artful and his
speech is so fine and his promises are
so captivating that we forget to look
beneath his thin disguise. If lust only
came to us, as it always ought to come,
foul and lOathSOme as a laZarettO and
disgusting as a smallpox hospital, we
should all be as pure as the untrodden
snow; but when lust comes with dap
per grace, like beautiful maiden, her
lap filled with garlands and her locks.
breathing forth the fragrance of
spring, we think she is a child of the
dawn and not a creature of He'll.
When Peter enthusiastic large-lleart-
ed Peter-makes the kindly sugges-
tion to his Lord that he must not 90
to Jerusalem where flagellation and
contempt and mockery and death
await Him, Jesus quick thought de-
tects in the kindly suggestion of his
warm friend the ghost of the old temp
tatiOn that stalked before Him in the
wilderness, namely, that he should
take the way of the crown rather than
the way of the cross, and He exclaims:
"Get thee behind Me, Satan.''
Why do men love sin at all? They
would never love it; they would always
abhor and hate it if it showed itself as
it really is. Dress anything up in fail
enough form, and you may make it at
tractive. If that thing in itself be
foul, it's beautiful dress makes it g
mighty instrument for wrong. Sir
has an easy way of twisting things
How easy it is to make good seem bac
and bad seem good, and fair seem falst
