CHAPTER u.-(ContIn u.d. !

Naturally, Charlie Stuart was justi
ned In believing the girl to be the chile
of some Flemish citizen. True, sh,
was not dressed in the usual Dutch
fashion, but her golden tresses ant
blue eyes, that shone like twin stars
made him take the fact for granted.
He was, therefore, considerably. sur.
prised when, springing to her feet, she
advanced a step or two toward them
holding out her hands, look of great
Joy Illuminating her face, and in a
voice which the echoes of her recent
sobs still haunted, addressed them in
purest English:
ooh, sirs, Heaven has heard my
prayer and sent you to my rescued"
Stuart made up his mind then and
there, strange as such a proceeding
might be, that there was deeper mys-
terry about the presence of this young
girl in these terrifying surroundings
than had at first occurred to him.
Many things united to make him be-
lieve this-the fact of her not being
missed by her party, her manner in
avoiding any reference to the friends
who should be so anxious-yes, then
and there he became convinced that a
story lay back of it as startling as any
product of an opium smokers dream.
Charlie knew it would be well for him
to divert the girls mind as much as
possible from the horrors she had so
recently been forced to face. Thus as
they walked along, he even grew
somewhat merry and his object was
accomplished, since the girls temper
airy trembling fit had passed away and
she was now calm enough to ask ques-
tons regarding their opportune pres
ence in the dismal place.
Several times Charlie knew she was
looking at him intently.
He believed that he could guess the
she had a story to tell, d
story far out of the ordinary run, and
was studying him when she thought
herself unobserved, studying him to
determine whether she dared entrust |
him with its astonishing details.

CHAPTER III.

Charlie Makes an Engagement.
Who was she?
This question came into Chalie's
mind many times while they walked
through those ghostly passages, seek
ing the worn stone stairs at the tor
of which stood the roughly hewn oak
door studded with rusty nails.
At the foot of the worn stone steps
the girl came to a sudden stop.
Sir" she said, addressing Charlie
as though he were the only party in
sight, unless l am mistaken these
steps lead up to the museum of the
Steen, and we have reached the exit
of this horrible underground tomb"
We can be in the light as soon as 1
unlock the door up yonder," he said
quietly.

Her words thrilled Charlie.
Pardon me, miss-I should have
told you before-my name is Charlie |
Btuart. l am at present an exile from |
cid London, in search of a mission.
Perhaps 1 have found one," he said,
With an amused smile.
A faint flush chased across her coun-
fenance.
"And lam Airline Brand"
She had a small reticule attached to
her girdle, as was the custom. Open
ing this, she took out a quaint little
nlaid cardcase and handed him bit
If pasteboard.

that spoke out so clearly that 1t could touch the heart of every reader as well as that of her for whom 1t spoke?
 That Is the kind of a love letter that can be written by man or woman, if only she or he has mastered the art That is the kind of a letter for which women wait, of which they dream and which opens their souls like the expand ing petals of the rose.
 If you have no words of your own, use those of the poets; if you have no terms of endearment but sickly senti- mental ones, use none at all; but tell the girl of your heart that you love her fin a strong, manly, compelling fashion, and be assured that she will understand and sympathize with you, at least
 For of all the beautiful things which arouse woman to her best and greatest, nothing is more beautiful, nothing Is more overmastering. nothing Is more cherished in her little treasury than q love letter which is tender without being foolish, and truthful without being ab- rupt.
 The art of writing one Is difficult. but you would win the affections of the girl you love will find 1t worth your while.
 And if you do learn. although you may shrink at the idea of having what was meant only for her dear eyes paraded be- fore the public you can feel sure that your effort will. instead of making you ridiculous, only make you nobler In the eyes of the world-for all the world loves a lover.

From the Baltimore Herald.
 Captain Richmond Pearson Hobson and Thomas Magee, club man of San Fran cisco, recently performed one of the most daring exploits ever performed In the Yosemite valley by climbing the almost inaccessible heights of perpendicular haif-dome, a distance of 5000 feet. To keep their footing and prevent from slid ing they had stout ropes and bundles of of iron spikes.
 With one hand they would hang on to me small Assures in the rock. and with the other drive spikes into the openings of the white granite. The descent was begun at twilight. Near tue bottom they ran short spikes and the only extra one slipped from Magee's hand. Hopson bending far over the 1,ooo-foot ledge ed the pin 1t would probably have meant death.
