light AS this light grew stronger, Law slowly turned and looked at the face beside him. Out of the tangIe of dark hair there blazed still two eyes, eyes which looked steadily up st the ceiling, refusing to turn either to the right or to the left. He calmly pulled closer to him, so that it might not stain the garments of the woman beside him, the blood-soaked shirt whose looseness and lack of definition had perhaps saved him from a fatal blow. He paid no attention to his wound, which he knew was nothing serious. Sc he lay and looked at Mary Con- nynge, and finally removed his arm.
 Get up,'' said he simply, and the woman obeyed him.
 "The fire, Madam, if you please, and breakfast
 These had been the duties of the Indian woman, but Mary Connynge obeyed.

 John Law looked at her with the simple and direct gaze which the tanner of the wild beast employs when he goes among them, the look of a man not afraid of any living thing.

CHAPTER xxIv.
ToTTs. sAuYAGEs.

Had nature indeed intended Law for she wild life of the trail, and had he indeed spent years rather than months among these unusual scenes, he could hardly have been better fitted for the part. Hardy of limb, keen of eye, tire less of foot, with a hand which any weapon fitted, his success as hunter made his companions willing enough to assign to him the chase of the bison or the stag; so that he became not only patron but provider for the camp.
 Some weeks after the departure of Du Mesne, Law was returning from the hunt some miles below the sta- tion. His tall and powerful figure, har- dened by continued outdoor exercise. was scarce bowed by the weight of the wild buck which he bore across his

CHAPTER XIV.
THE DREAM.

M ' 4
 That n1ght John Law dreamed as he slept, and it was in some form the same haunting and familiar dream. In his vision he saw not the low roof nor the rude walls about him. To his mind there appeared little dingy room, smaller than this in which he lay, with walls of stone, with door of iron grating and not of rough-he slabs. He saw the door of the prison cell swing open; saw near it the figure of a, noble young girl, with large and frightened eyes and lips half tremu- lous. To this vision he outstretched his hands. He was almost conscious of uttering some word supplicatingly, almost conscious of uttering name.
 Perhaps he slept on. We little know the ways of the land of dreams. 1t might have been half an instant or half an hour later that he suddenly awoke. finding his hand ciasped close. against his side. where suddenly there had come a sharp and burning pain. His own hand struck another. He saw

Making Argon.

z Argon, though so recently unknown has ceased to be a rarity, as it can be pre- pared at the rate of quart day by the new process of Moisson and Rigant, the
 French chemists. Air is passed over copper turnings in a red-hot tube, the oxygen being thus abstracted, and the gas passing away is nitrogen mixed with argon. Most of the nitrogen is re~ moved by a mixture of magnesium and lime, the remainder by red-hot calcium.

Cause of Thunder.

In the experiments of Prof. John Trowbridge, a powerful electric current is passed between terminals of wood and cotton wool saturated with distilled. water. and gap of four inches is bridged by torrent of bright sparks, with a: deafening noise. This is thought to prove that thunder Is largely due to ex- plosions of hydrogen and oxygen from dissociated water yapor.
