sum and Wind Figure.
The moon proves a terrible pitfall to
most writer's. WillSie Collins once per-
formed the marvellous feat Of making
it rise in the west. Rider Haggard, in
king Solomons Mines" relies for the
effective rendering Of one of his most
thrilling scenes upon an eclipse of the
new moon.
Coleridge placed star between the
horns of the crescent moon, forgetting
that to be visible in such position the
star would have to be between the
earth and the moon or, say, 100000
miles away only.
Next to the moon perhaps the sun Is
responsible for more glaring errors
than any single concrete cause. AT
the beginning of certain famous nov
el, the title of which few years back
was in eyerybody's mouth, an invalid
characters room was said to have
been lighted by one window looking
directly toward the east. Yet at the
end of the book, when the invalid dies,
the author, wishing to make him de-
part this life in flood of glory, suf-
| fuses this eastern windowed room with
''the red glare of the setting sun"
Kingsley, too, made one of his heroes
row out into the eastern ocean after
the setting sun. But even this glaring
absurdity has been capped. In novel
published by well known firm there
occurs the following passage, the scene
being laid on board big sailing ship

am sorry that I cannot tell the story
of the monks final passage precisely a:
Father Dastis told it to me. with his owr
expressive gestures and the peculiar in
Elections Of his voice. At best / can only
try to convey to my readers something OF
the impression that his words conveyed
to me-
1t was not until some time in the early
seventies that Brother Josephus took to
his bed
The abbot, who had no small knowledge
OF medicine and surgery. soon realized
that the end was very near, and then. in
accordance with the ancient and invari-
able practice In this monastery. ashes
| were sprinkled on the floor in the shape
Of a cross and covered with a few hand
fuls OF straw.
Upon this cross the dying brother was
stretched and then, still following the
ancient custom, the abbot knelt and whis-
| pered to him that the vow of silence
which ne had kept so long and faithfully
was now removed and that, II he wished
he might speak before quitting the world
| forever.
The end is very near" said the All
bot. 'If you have anything to say. any
question to ask, or any message to leave
behind you, speak now. for the time is
short
The end was indeed near-the end OF
that sixty years struggle between the
flesh and the spirit.
Surely by this time. with the long jour
ney ended and heaven almost within
sight. all thought OF the world that lay
so far behind him must have faded from
his mind.
For 4 moment the silence was broken
only by the labored breathing of the dying
man and the distant sound of music from
the chapel where the monks were chant
ing the Laus Deo. The abbot, who had
shriven scores OF passing souls in his
day. saw that the thoughts of Brother
Josephus were carrying him afar off-he
hoped in the direction of blessed i'm
mortality.
But the fires of a glorious youth were
not quite extinguished IL this worn-out.
dying body.
a flush crept into his gray cheek and a
light that the abbot had never seen there
before cleaned in the monks eyes as
memory carried him back from the rude
form OF ashes and straw that symbolized
his Masters final agony. across the three
score years of fasting and prayer and
modification OF the flesh.
1t all came back TO him again, the heat
and flames of Wagram. the hunger and
cold OF Russia, the clash of arms. the
stirring music, the eagles leading the in
vading hosts and the cry OF "vive TEm-
pereur!" ringing through 1t all.
Speak, II you will" said the abbot for
the last time in a voice that seemed to
come from far away.
Brother Josephus rallied his failing
powers for a final effort, and then, in
what was literally his last breath. ex-

CHAPTER /.
IN WHICH, REVERSING THE ORDER OF
THINGS, A COACH HOLDS UP A
HORSKNAN.

'Tis simple tale. yet not an unevent-
ful one And as ! SIT here and bite the
end OF my quill ! can see again a dirty
night in 80. thirty years ago, a warm,
late September evening with the fine rain
tumbling down en- the leaves OF the trees
that bordered the road. The pattering
drops, the thump of Rogers hoofs as he
kept on his steady gait with bowed head
and bedraggled name, the occasional
loom OF a big maple, and the sense of
wretchedness and loneliness were the
only sounds and thoughts that came to
my consciousness.
Yet back of 1t all vas that constant
watchfulness that, young as ! was, had
learned always TO have by me-a lesson
common to all WHO had served with Gen.
eral Putnam for yee- or two. The Wig
orous old man had given me many a
parting caution as he snook me heartily
by the hand. telling me 20 have a care of
this Hudson River country and OF the
wild thieves that broke out with fine i'm
partiality upon colonial and Kings SOL

not from any tavern window, but from
an ordinary coach lantern moving here
and there SO strangely that instinctively

him in under the tress to one side.
