CHAPTER VII.

Richard Dysart's first act, after set
ting foot on dry land at Southampton,
was to dispatch two letters-one to
Marcia at Gatewood, the other to Stella
to Denecroft. All his boyish anger
with Sir Arthur had long since evapo-
rated, and he rightly judged that his
brother would meet him halfway on
his homecoming, and let by-gones be
by-gones. He would arrive almost as
soon as the letters.
Ninety minutes later he was in the
metropolis via the steamer train, and
after breakfast at his old club, the
Raglan, he made sundry visits to the
tailor, the haberdasher and his bank
ers, and then drove to the identical
private detective agency in yelling
ton street which Rossiter Kane had
visited only few hours before.
If the case had gone to Scotland
Yard he might've do not say he
would, but he might-have learned
that there was sort of polite hue-and-
cry out after himself. But the private
inquiry people do not do business that
way; they have for one of their mot
toes, Let not your right hand know

odd Death of n Bird.

curious instance of bird death is recorded by w. E. D. Scott in his "Story of q Bird Lover" He tells story of a kingfsher who was shot' pursued his flight, apparently unhuft' for 200 feet, and then dropped dead, Still. when the body was examined there was no mark of a wound upon It. which gave rise to the possibility that A wild bird could be frightened to death. q have seen the same thing happen many times since,' continues the story. "I know now the reason for this. A single shot striking a bird in flight, penetrating the thin side Of ms body and entering his lungs, makes a very small hole, and no external 'hemct- rhage ensues There is little or no shock to the bird. I fancy he hardly feels pain, but presently the internal hemorrhage from the great blood yes sells that have been severed makes him suddenly unconscious, and in moment he is dead. The time, however, between the penetrating of the shot and the 1p
 ternal hemorrhage is sufficient to al
 low the animal to travel a very conslu
 erable distance seemingly uninjured.'

way Foam Is White.

The question as to why all foam IS white is not an easy one to under stand. but the fact is that foam IS all ways white, whatever may be the color of the beverage itself. The froth pro duced on a bottle of the blackest ink is white and would be perfectly so were 1t not tinged to certain extent by particles of the liquid which the bubbles hold in mechanical suspension. As to the cause of this whiteness, 1t is sufficient to say that 1t is due to the large number of reflecting surfaces formed by the foam, for it is these sur faces which, by re1ecting the light produce upon our eyes the impression of white.
 If we remember that all bodies owe their colors to the rays of light, whicf they cannot absorb, and all bodies which reflect all the light they receive without absorbing any, appear perfect ly white, we shall be prepared to under stand how the multitude of refectin' surfaces formed by the foam, an' which do not absorb any light, mus necessarily give the froth white ar pearance. It is for the same reaso that any very fine powder appear white. even the blackest marble, whe ground to dust, losing every trace Of il original color.
