For an instant Henley forgot the clock
and the fatal click-tick-tick that tolled off
nfe-beats for them BOTH He held her close
to his heart, and all else in the world was
barred out. Then 1t came back, the insis-

Shudderingly, she crept closer to him.
Never strike again." she murmured
Its all right, dear girl; it's all right !

The next morning the superintendent and
manager of the Henley-Graves Construction
Company strolled into court and proved
the much desired alibi for his first assist
ant. Together they stroled back to the
office Of the company. There, behind closed
doors, Henley looked at Aquilla narrowly
Lucky for you, old man, you were locked
up last night. There are ugly rumors
around the palace this morning about an
attempt to blow up Senior Matanya's home

Aquilla's eyes frightened.

his eyes flashing.
1t cost Henley his share Of the first pay

it worth while The departure of Carlos
Aquilla increased the chances of complet-

strengthened the cause and prolonged the

DAGUERRE'S PROCESS.
| It's Introduction Into America Gave
Impetus to a New Business.
From the Century.

From the Century.
AS soon as Daguerre's process became
well enough known in America for prac-
tice, scientific men, and, in fact, all sorts
and conditions of men," attempted to pro-
duce the wonderful pictures. Many home
made and very primitive kinds of appara-
tus were employed in the experiments,
including the cigar box with a spectacle
lens If the operator succeeded in pro-
ducing an impression that could be seen,
1t was carried about and shown as
great success
There were several claimants for max
ing the first portrait by the process. A
Mr.. Walcott made the claim, and Mr. Jo-
seph Dixon, by letters and other evil
dence claimed that the first picture was
his, for which, it was said, Mrs. Dixon sat
with powdered face in full sunshine fif-
teen minutes.
In March, 1910, Messrs. Walcott and
Johnson opened gallery in New York,
and announcing their readiness to execute
portraits from life, solicited patronage.
This was the first daguerreotype gallery
in the world. Other places were soon
opened. The daguerreotype, although con-
sidered desirable as a curiosity, was not
popular. on account of the length of time
required for sitting, which varied ac

But of Yesterday.

v. d. Nesbit In Chicago Tribune.
Sometimes we think the song is hushed,
And then its measures grow more sweet
Than when in sheer delight they rushed
In unison with rhythmic beat
For IL we listen once again
The echo of the song Will sway
With subtler charm than Ii held then
For that was only yesterday.
We think the fading of the rose
Tells that its glory has an end,
But as each withered petal goes
pungent fragrance 1t viii sendt
A spicy tang OF treasured bloom
That longer than the rose VIII stay
The preciousness of Its perfume
Distilled In dews Of yesterday.
The rose, the laughter and the song,
And all the things that make US giad,
Are destined to be with US long,
To send us cheer when days are sadt
For down the path which holds our feet--
On which we may not backward stray
On blossom-breaths faint echoes beat
Out of the rose-hued yesterday.
Built Of the shadow and the shine
And of the glamour and the gold,
These yesterdays OF yours and mine
Are never broken from our hold:
They follow Us through dark and dawn,
Until we come at last to say
That no glad thing is ever gone
For 1t stiu lives in yesterday.
