CHAPTER TX,
Bombay at last,

Bombay at last.
"Oh, the terrible strain Of those
nights and days since the garrison OF
RaWal Pindi had hidden the newly
married pair God speed" and that
journey had begun which should have
been n all-too-swiftly-passing stream
of happiness, and held nothing but the
long-drawn-out agony of tortured
~hours-hours spent together in closest
compantonship, yet in which they were
kept apart by the widest CULTS.
Don thought there could well be
nothing bitterer than that stage of the
journey which was over. The forced
inaction on board the trains, the fierce
satisfaction Of arranging every little
detail for his wife's comfort. always
with the knowledge that that right to
do SO would all too soon cease to be
his; the constant strain to keep up ap-
p~earances before servants and officials,
the utter inability to break down the
barrier of pain when they were alone.
Sometimes he told himself it had

to the rope Of succor. he had not the
courage to be the one to cut the cord
which bound them. She had consented
he should take her home, and he would
go through with it to the bitter end.
His thoughts never went beyond that
end. After their farewell had been
spoken, what mattered it wither he
went?
And now they were on board the big
steamer at last, and the May day was
dying in a golden haze over land and
sea. The pilot had long since gone
ashore in the tug steamer, and the
great Indian land of glory and death
was sinking fast astern into the world
of waters.
Lille stood on the poop and looked
her last upon it with a bursting heart.
She had com hither a gay and happy
girl, she was going hence a broken
hearted woman, a wife in name alone.
Don was below, comforting with the
steward anent their luggage and cab
ms. She was free to let fall those salt
tears she hid from him with proud.
Spartanlike fortitude. If she suffered.
she suffered in silence, and perhaps
Don never guessed how deep that suf-
fering was. He came up by and by,
and found her still standing by the
~tdffrail alone She had nbncEad how
tears and recovered her habitual calm:
but though she had drawn her veil
down, through it's thin texture Don saw
how pale and worn her lovely face
looked.

ately. Shall you go below at once?"
Il would rather stay here a while.

SURVIVAL OF THE UNFITTEST.
Instances in Nature Where Good Gives
Way to Seeming Evil.

III NaCuro "here GOOD Gives
Way to Seeming Evil.
A matter that has attracted the at
tention of all outdoor students for
ages, and which still remains unset
tied, Is the fact that, although the
farmer wages a constant warfare on
weeds in order that his crops may
grow, the food-bearing plants often
fail to seed fruition. but the weeds
never. The more noxious the
plant the more certain it is
to flourish, says a New England
writer. What is true of the plant
world is true of bird and mammal life.
The English sparrows, which nearly
every one hates. increase at the rate
OF millions yearly, in spite of rigid
winters and bounty laws, while the
birds which add the beauty of color
and song to outdoor life are tending to-
ward extinction. The frost that i'm

over the snowbank where he has
sought shelter, at the same time pro-
tects the field mouse pest from his
natural enemies. The same crust bears
up the wolf. while 1t practically i'm
prisons the deer. Insect parasites kill
the game birds, while the owl seems
to enjoy their companionship and
cares not how thickly they swarm
within the cover OF his plumage. The
crows fly over morning and evening
from roosting to feeding place and re-

century ago. The ducks and geese re

Why There Are So Many Masons.

A little girl tells what she knows
about King Solomon in the following
essay: king Solomon was a man
who lived ever so long ago and in the
country in which he governed he was
the whole thing. King Solomon built
Solomon's temple and was the father
OF all the Masons. He had 700 wives
and 200 lady friends and that is why
there are SO many Masons in the

An Enslishman with a beautiful head

At LOCAL THEATRES.

Resplendant with beautiful scenery
the author appears at the head, comes
that popular play, Reaping the Har-
vest" at the Auditorium tonight and
tomorrow night.
While this is the second season OF
this play. It will be its first visit to
Spokane, and in lieu Of its coming
with such splendid endorsements 1t
Is safe to say the engagement will
be a profitable one. ''Reaping the
Harvest" is a powerful story Of hu-
man emotions which finds its atmos-
phere in Louisville, Ky. Act second
shows the exterior of the Larkin
home in Louisville, on Elmwood
Heights, with the historical Elmwood
drive in the distance.
Act third introduces you to quaint
old Clarksville, o., in its beautiful
autumn dress. The historic Kronk
tavern in this act will be readily rec
ognized by anyone who has ever Wis
tied the quaint old town of Clarks-
vile. ...-
With act four the scene goes back
to Louisville. showing the new home
of the Larkins in Poverty Row. the
beautiful st. Johns cathedral and
the Illuminated snow scene of Christ
mas eve.
The Denver Post of February 16
says:
'Reaping the Harvest is unaues-
tionably the best play seen at the
Curtis theater this season, and that
seems to be the universal opinion
wherever Reaping the Harvest is
presented.
THE story is one of great human
interests, melodramatic in flavor but
written with something other than a
long list Of murders and impossible
situations in sight. 'Reaping the Har-
vest is a clean, wholesome story of
comedy and sentiment that will justly
claim your closest attention, your
heartiest laughs, your 1oudest ap-
plause and your warmest words of
praise"
