at foreign courts, all of whom are paid
by the pope.
Leo MIL, as were his predecessors
and as his successors will be, is his
own treasurer. Secretaries by the
score carry out his orders, but the
pope is as supreme in all matters of
finances as in those of religion. The
vatican council discusses no estimates;
no yearly statements are made as to
the condition of the papal treasury.
There are six sources of revenue
from which the papal' funds are re-
rived. Ia the first place the holy see
is the holder of considerable invest
ments in the foreign funds, just made
by Plus TX, and now yielding an in
come of about $250,000 a year. "Pe-
ter's pence" the largest item upon the
credit side of the account, brings in
annually fully $350,000. The offerings
made during jubilees, pilgrimages to
Rome and religious gatherings there
are believed to yield in the aggregate
not less than 100000 annually, while
exceptional occasions, such as the
great papal jubilee, during which one
festival the contributions reached a
total of 100000, have brought that
figure to very much more considerable
proportions.
The special audiences of the pope
form the fourth source of his income,
since it is customary for the faithful
admitted TO such honors to leave an
offering with the secretary on duty
in the antechamber. Most of these C.
acknowledgements are generous in the
extreme. the duke of Norfolk, for in
stance. always handing the vatican Of
fieer $500, and they will average quite
S250,000 year. OF the contributions
made toward the expenses of the see
by the queen of Spain, the Austrian
emperor and the great and wealthy
religious orders in Rome, no definite
statement has ever been made, but re-
port places this item at 100000 or
S225,OO0.
The sixth account to be considered
IS that which is purely personal In
the case of Leo XIII. it is generally ac-
cepted as about 100000 a year, being
rentals and other income derived from
his investments in real estate in vari-
Gus countries. He is known to own
propertyin Paris and Vienna, and good
authority states that he is also hold

Ready for Practical Use.

During discussion before the Amer
lean institute Prof. Small, of Colum bia
university, said that it was not neces-
sary to wait for more developments be-
fore equipping every lighthouse with
apparatus for sending wireless mes.
sages to sea notifying ships of their
proximity to rocks and breakers. Fog,
according to Prof. Small, being better
tralAnitter of the waves than pure air
the lighthouses could still save the
lives of those headed for the rocks,
no matter how dense the day. Another
interesting declaration during the dis
cussion was that in all probability the
present method of sending and receiv-
ing wireless messages from tall poles
or towers would be done away with, as
the curvature of the earth makes no
difference in the waves.

"Nurse!"

"Nurse!"
The darkness had passed from Dicks
brain, and having opened his eyes and
seen things as they were, though with
an imperfect grasp of the facts, he
whispered the monosyllable.
The quick rustic of dress answered
him, and the words:
"Yes, my dear boy!"
"You, mother?" said Dick, looking
up at the face that was the best and
truest object in life for him.
She clasped his hand--a bony shape,
loosely laced with skin.
Suddenly the cloud fell from him.
1t all came back,-wound, fever, the
long weeks in hospital, the voyage
home in weakness and anxiety as well
as hope, the news of Mary's fortune
and Sir Tarver Brown, his rebuff in st.
Paul's churchyard and his journey to
Nellerton.
He groaned in spite of himself, and
turned his face to the wall
"Now, then, dear, let me raise your
head"
whats the use?" he murmured.
1t was his one and only flash of
peevishness. The next instant he
obeyed orders with smile. 1t was a
dreary smile, yet a smile.
"IIow ! must have worried you,
motherl" he said, quietly, as he settled
after the tonic. 81 suppose this is Mel
lerton?"
She kissed him as mothers do kiss
their grown sons of whom they are
very proud.
"Try and sleep again, dear" she said,
rather TREMENDOUSLY.
But Mary Dudley and her infidelity-
her excusable infidelity-were.y vivid in
his mind. How could he sleep amid
such realizations?
"All right" he said, shutting his
eyes.
Then sunny gray mist settled upon
his brain, and his surroundings were
10 him as if they were not. 1t was not
so much sleep as translation of spirit.
80, Mary. Mary, what shall i do with
out your his lips cried aloud, even
while his mind was active in some
remoter atmosphere.
Nothing, dear Dick; you shall not
do without me as long as we live, for
we will be always together" A hand
was laid on his forehead-a little
satiny hand, with love warm in all its
pores. And instantly Dick opened his
eyes.
MARY" he gasped.
This time Nary Dudley laid her face
by his on The pillow, smiling, and whis-
pered, with her mouth close TO his
mouth:
"Of course, Dick, who else should
it be?"
