GREAT SALT LAKE.
No Living Thing in II and No Danger
OF Being drowned.

The waterloo the Great Salt Lake,
Utah, is transparent, with a bottom
Of fine white sand and margin Of in
crusted salt. IL is one Of the purest
and most concentrated brines In the
world. Its waters give sustenance to
no living thing: there is not the small
est insect or worm to frighten the
most timid bather, and the bathing is
the most perfect sea bathing In the
whole OF North America or In Europe.
No human body can sink In il. Your
body will perslstently rise up, the
shoulders above the water, or you may
sit down il. It's wonderful buoyancy
must be experienced to be realized.
No knowledge Of swimming Is neces-
sary; one may enter the lake without
the slightest fear; all you have TO do Is
lie down and float. But to swim ia Il,
that is another thing. When your
hands are put under the water to take
a stroke, your feet, like Banquo's
ghost, will not 60 down. Il isimpossi-

When the King Takes a Queen.

When the King Takes a Queen.
Out under the gardens spreading
fruit trees, the little gentlewomen of
Elfgiva's household were amusing
themselves with the flock of peacocks
that were the Abbey's pets. The old
cellarer, to whose care the birds fell
except during those hours when the
ences, watched the scene in grinning
delight; and Leonorine laughed gaily
at them over the armful of tiny bob
bing lap-dogs, whose valiant charges
she was engaged in restraining. The
only person who seemed out of tune
with the Ginning mirth was the Lady
Elfgiva herself.
''Will you not observe my feelings.
il you have none Of your own" she
demanded. "Dearwyn. lay aside your
nonsense and go ask Gurth il he has
heard anything yet Of Tebeen."
The dull red that mottled her face
and neck was danger signal whose
warning her attendants had learned
to heed. and they scattered precipi.

his gorgeous flock with waving arms,

SO strangely that her laughter died
and she bent toward him in sudden
gravity. Lord! Is it possible for you
to believe that I could love Roth

For while he only looked at her,
that strange radiance growing in his
face; but suddenly he caught her to
him and kissed her so passionately
that he hurt her. and his voice was as
passionate as his caress. NO" he
told her over and over. Would |
have offered you my love had I be-
lieved that? No! MOI"
Satisfied, she made no more resist
ance, but clung to him with her arms
as she had clung to him with her
heart since the first hour he came
into her life. Only, when at last he
released her, she took the ring from

laid her finger-tip beseechingly upon
them, "Sebert, my love, beg of you
