We left Sir Reginald Glendennina

The pathway over which they almost
few was very beautiful, surrounded on
either side by grand old trees, whose soft
boughs meeting, made a perfect canopy
Of green above, through which hecks
Of bright blue sky might be seen, and
through which also, rare slants OF sun
shine glinted, falling on drops Of dew
that lay upon the nodding grasses, or
upon little clumps Of flowers, whose cups
lay open, ever turning skyward for q
fresh supply Of light or moisture.
But Sir Reginald saw not, and cared
not for the beauty that lay so ravishingly
around him. He had received an unwel-
come letter, one presenting to him duty,
which he meant not to fulfill, and now
he was Bullen, morose and angry.

and the little mother labored and soon
the sick man fell into tranquil sleep.
Then she sent the mother off to bed
and alone she kept the vigil. The
gray light of morning was creeping In
at the windows when the sleeper
awoke to perfect consciousness.
"Mother," he began family, II have
had such wretched dreams the blessed
night long l thought Louise was here,
and she had the faculty of changing
herself first into fascinating young
girl and then into a sour old hag.
Mother, do you think she cares even a
little bit for me
"She loves you more than anything
In the world, even her darling profes-
sion," trembling voice whispered in
his ear, for Louise was on her knees
at his bedside and had her arms
around him. 81 never knew how |
loved you until saw you SO desper-
ately ILL.," the voice continued, and In
her heart Of hearts Louise Alden knew
| that she was lying.
When the little mother came in,
some three hours later, Bernard In
formed her that DR.. Alden said he
might be Ill a long time, with suspi-
cious stress on the "might," and, that
she could the better care for him, they
had decided to be married at once.
Mrs. Holme was willing. More than
that, she went herself to secure the IL
cense and the preacher, for she had no
notion of giving Louise an opportunity
to change her mind. She had always
believed that some day the willful
girl would come to her senses and do
the rational thing. Now that she was
| in the humor, the consummation Of O
12-year-old devotion could not be
brought about too quickly. "If he ever
tells her that he wasn't delirious bit
and that we plotted the whole thing,
she'll want to murder us both" the old
lady reflected.
That afternoon Louise sat, happy
and radiant, at the bedside OF her hus-
band, who was already clamoring to
get up, when guests were announced.
"Can l go right up " merry voice
in the hall below asked. II thought
she would be at the station, and when
could not find her in the crowd we
went to her Office and the maid sent us
over here"
1t was Trix:- but whom had she

riosity, Louise went to the head Of the
stairs. The young girl was at her side
in a moment and had both arms
around her neck.

The life Of a physician Is certainly Q
Sery unsettled and unsatisfactory one. No
sooner, therefore, had Earle Elfenstein
retired to his library, after his lonely sup
per, and become deeply interested in

He fingered fully an hour, hoping i

Pltchy darkness he encountered all the
way, relieved only by the vivid flashes Of
lightning that darted hither and thither,
over the inky sky, while the wind, eerie

grounds surrounding Glendenning Hall;
then, seeming to gather force with each
lull, broke loose again into fury, lashing,

When Celia seeks her garden ground,
With smiling blue above her,
The little blossoms all around
Do lift their heads to love her;
And they with kisses cool and sweet
In fond embraces linger,
At rest upon her dainty feet
Or on her snowy finger.
Now shall thing Of green and white,
That hath nor sense nor seeing,
Be held more dear In Celia's sight
Than some poor mortal being7
Shall blue and red that fades apace,
In rainy breezes rocking,
Be counted worthy Celia's grace,
And | be made her nockingI
Ye foolish buds, that all arrow
With feigned smiles cajole her,

Nor any frost can harden,

Melting snow.

During the past winter a new device
for removing snow from city streets
was put In use. 1t is called a snow
melter, huge machine for thoroughly
cleaning the streets. Popular Mechan'
les says that the melting is done rap
Idly and economically by means Of a
hot-alr blast which is brought into d.
rect contact with the snow.
The melter consists OF a doubls-end
furnace with a large CRATE area sur
mounted by horizontal water-j jacket
and a crescent-shaped cross-sectior
with two inverted L-shaped fiues, The
dimensions OF the meter are the same
as those Of an ordinary truck.
The melter Is mounted on wheels
and can be easily moved from place Il
place by a team of horses. The water
jacket forms the bottom OF an iror
frame or box into which the snow may
be shoveled direct from the street, OF
into which a load Of snow may be di
rectly dumped.
The furnace burns coke, and is large
enough to hold a cartload at a time
The snow is placed In direct contact

CAVE MEN M AMERICA.
Prehistoric Skulls Discovered In
Cave In eouth we stern Missouri.

PrehistOrtc Skulls DtacOvoreu IN
Gave In Southwestern Missouri.
Prof. @. N. Gould, of the University
of Oklahoma, recently visited a cave
in Southwestern Missouri where exca'
vations have been going on for a fort
night, and will last as much longer
before they are completed. The cave
is seventy feet long In the solid rock.
and the bottom Is covered with layer
of ashes over three feet deep, and this
is being dug up and searched. Out OF
the debris Of ashes and clay have been
dug four human skeletons, together
with bones of other animals. The
arms are unduly long and the legs un-
duly short, which argues that the skel
etons belong to an ancient period
Flint Instruments Of all kinds, knives
spear heads, drills, as well as bone
and stone Instruments, are found In
great abundance.
The surface OF the cave ls of lime
stone, worn perfectly smooth, probably
by long generations Of use by the cliff
dwellers. DR.. Peabody tells Of q
sheepfold at Mycene of similar lime
stone worn smooth In like manner
by long use by the sheep. Along the
back wall Of the cave the water pour
ing off the limestone has formed huge
stalactites which Prof. Gould says
must have been in process Of forma
tion for thousands Of years. AS these
stalactltes have formed above the coat
of ashes In which the human skele
tons and other relics of ancient times
have been found, the cave must be one
Of extreme age.
As far as know>S, the discovery OF
these four skulls In Southwestern Mis-
sourl Is the first positive discovery Of
a cave man In America. Their an
tlqulty is yet to be proven. The sta
lactites, however, the three-foot coat.
Ing OF ashes, and other evidences of
like kind seem to prove that the dis,
coyery Is indeed an important one.
Prof. Gould was the only geOlogist
present at the investigation of that
cave, and as almost the whole question
OF antiquity must be settled by a study
of the geological formation his opinion
in the case Is of great value. Prof.
Gould is of the opinion that the cave
is the greatest find OF Its kind ever
made in America. The work Of exca.
walton has only begun, and the great.
est discoveries are yet to be made in
all probability. He thinks there Is
little question as to its antiquity, and
that the discoveries being made in tho
cave win be of invaluable aid In solv.
ing the problem of the prehistoric race
Of man which inhabited the American
continent at one time.-New York

So the trembling baronet swallowed
the potion, and then became silent and
thoughtful. DR.. Elfenstein waited until
be saw his patient claimed and more pha-
bic, then proceeded to replace the bone
Of the broken hip and arrange the suf-
ferer In the position most important for
the success Of his surgery.
After giving explicit directions to Lady
Constance and Mrs. FREEDOM, an old fam
lily nnrse, for bis further treatment, he
withdrew, promising to return By even

No sooner had the door closed upon his
retiring form than Sir Reginald ordered
every soul to leave the room except Lady
Constance, merely explaining to the won

wife upon matter Of importance.

that his order had been obeyed and that
they were alone. "Go to my library and

very top. The key you will find in my

Lady Constance instantly did as he d.
rected and the letter from bis dead sis
ter was once more In his hand. This
time he read 1t in a different mood. In
stead of anger, one could see intense sat
isfaction In his eager eyes.
"Now, | viii tell you the request made
Of me in this letter." and he repeated to
her the words read by his niece and
nephew, as they stealthily possessed
themselves Of itsh contents. This girl

"Then give me paper and pencil

son alluded to:
"Sir Glendenning Is Ill. You can be

"Cal the coachman; tell him to take

A short time elapsed only, when Mat
