Harry tells me that he scented the &C.
cident from afar. and was on the
scene almost directly 1t happened. He
is called clever, but he does not cure
me.
well, he found me crying one day,
and he said l ought to have some one
bright and young and good-temperad
about me. You can't call Mrs. Morti-
mer any n of those things, can you?"
Janetta did not answer; she felt
that the remark was in bad taste.
II sha'n't like you if you look
shocked every time I'm flippant.
Where was /? So advertised, half
in fun and half in earnest, and of
curse Mrs. Mortimer is very cross.
although it won't make the smallest
difference in her lot, except that she
will have to give orders for another
place to be laid at every meal.
"She is perfectly invaluable in her
way-housekeeper, %chaperon, compan-
ion, everything rolled into one; but
h is occasionally depressing"
You will give me something to do?"
said Janetta, when Miss Seymour came
to a pause. mot the things that Mrs.
Mortimer has done for you. it might
hurt her feelings"
"Oh, you will not have much to do.
You will be cheerful when I'm sad,
and kind when I'm cross; and you
won't offer to read aloud unless I ask
you, and you will talk when l want
you to talk; and, above all things,
you ont try palpably to amuse me.
Nothing bores me like that; and I
do hope you can arrange flowers nice

round as pumpkins, and is so annoyed
when l criticise.

change of subject, how you liked Cap

here for a little bit before he goes out
to India. He is ordered to the front"
He was very kind" replied Janetta.
Il scarcely know how l would have got
here without him."
I'VE were engaged before I had the
fall from my horse which has made
me what you see me-" went on Miss
Seymour, twisting her engagement
ring round and round upon her finger,
so that every diamond in it caught and
reflected the light in a thousand rain
b~ow-colored hues.
Its hard luck that l lie here help
less like this. isn't it. when there ia
such a life of happiness before me?
I'm going to get well, but it's long to
wait. Now you can guess how much
l shall need cheering when Harry
goes abroad. He's very good to me,
and declares he's never dull when he
comes; but you will try to make it
more cheerful for him. If you wait a
little while he'll be up again.
You will not need an introduction
after that long drive in the dark. He
was pleased with you, because he said
you were the only woman in the acci-
dent who did not scream"
Janetta laughed. Terror does not
take that form with me; 1t makes me
feel incapable of uttering a sound. I

well, at any rate, you kept it well

looking round, Japetta saw that Cap

unperceived.

Victims Of Electricity.

A table has been compiled by the in
surance companies of the losses of
electricity during the nine months end :
ing on Dec. /. Two hundred and fortv-
six persons have been e%lectrocuted dur-
ing these nine months, or an average
of almost thirty a month; SIS have
been MANNED; 112 horses have been
killed, and there were 442 fires.
In this table no count has hean
kept OF the indirect accidents through
the use of electricity, such as trolley
car accidents. electric mobile accidents
and the like. but only where the direct
electric shock caused the death or
manning or the fire.
The losses by electric fires alone
have averaged over a million dollars
a month. These losses have become SO
serious that the accident, life, and fire
insurance companies arei considering
the ~advisability Of taking united action
against them. The insurance rate IN
these companies was fixed before tho
great and increasing use of electricity
and the electrical risk was not 1eured
in, SO that the rates are upset and re-
quire a readjustment through these adj
ditional losses.
The winter months show more dam
age by electricity than the summer
months. During the summer there are
fewer fires and not SO many electrocu-
tions, while after every winters storm
there is a long list of casualties and
losses from imperfect insulation. cross
ed and broken wires. and misled cur
rents.

young women had when they reached
Akron was 20 cents.
According to their story. their lot
