CHAPTER XIV.

AS I said in the foregoing chapter
the days Immediately following the
death of the prefetto and the Count di
Pordino were exciting ones.
A new prefetto was appointed by
the king, and he proved to be a gen.
erous and intellectual man, at whose
hands we. received the kindest treat
ment.
The villa Of Ma1igni remained in his
family, and the new prefetto resided
at the prefettura in the old castle in
Cagliari, with his wife, a charming
woman, and his daughters, accom-
plished young ladies about the age of
Nita.
Here Nita remained as his guest
during the remainder of our stay in
Sardinia, while Mutterelli and l took
up our abode at the splendid but neg
lected Villa di Thorlano, as the guest
of Thorlane.
Under the new prefetto all my be-
longings were restored to me, and I
was once more in possession of the
letter of Antonio Sigmotta, and the
locket and pin that had belonged to
the infant Alice Graviscourt
The Importance of these was greatly
augmented by another document
which contained the statement of
Dambo, duly attested by the new pre-
fetto, and the import of which will be
duly disclosed.
l made Nita Barlotti fully acquaint-
ed with the significance of these
things; and our impatience to be off
to America to finish our work was
generously met by the new prefetto,
who aided us in every way, and final
ly saw us depart from Cagliari with
many expression Of regret.
Thorlane wished to have the mar
riage of Nita and himself solemnized
before leaving, but she archly babe
him be patient, for there was plenty
of time; and she preferred to know
the truth concerning herself before
she became his wife.
To our united voices, Thorlane
laughingly yielded, and placing his
estate in competent hands, to be cared
for until his return for final adjust
ment, he announced himself as ready
to start.
So we took a steamer to Genoa,
where / made good my promises to the
faithful Mutterelli, and placed to his
account fifty thousand lire, equal to
about ten thousand dollars.

A Criticism.

During the recent American tour
of Emile Mors, the automobile expert
Of France, there was parade in New
York.
NJ. Mors, at the time of the parade's
passage, was on Fifth avenue. See
ing the great throngs of people, and
hearing the loud, gay music, he decid-
ed that he would like to have a look
at the procession, and accordingly he
plunged into the deep crowd and tried
to work his way to a place of vantage.
The nearer the front he got the
more evidence he found of the police.
The police, indeed, were in great evil
dence, pushing here, showing there,
now uttering loud threats, now max
ing, amid intense excitement, an ar
rest.
Keep back! Keep back! Keep
back" was the continuous cry.
NJ Mors could hardly see the parade
for the police, and on account of the
excitement that they caused he could
not keep his mind on it at ALL Turn
ing somewhat impatiently to a man
on his left, he said:
why, sare, is the crowd being kept
back so VARY forcibly?"

to see the procession" the man an

fights shy of arguing his own case,

competent, hires somebody else to fit

not do justice to a subject in which
they take such vital interest. That
is why all of my brood patronize a
rival concern when they want really
fine photographs. In my own studio

satisfactory sitting to strangers than

DOCTOR In TROUBLE
OPERATION BY CHINESE PHYSI-
CLAN NOT A SUCCESS.
Eagerness to Rival His European Con-
freres Almost Brought Grave Disas-
ter-Authorities Thought Him Unfit
for Liberty.

A report received from Dr. Ernest
G. Vanderburgh, medical missionary
at Siangtan, Human, China, affords an
interesting comparison of Chinese and
American surgical methods. DR.. Van
derburgh has charge of two dispersal
ries and a hospital maintained by the
Presbyterian Board of Foreign Mis-
sions at the Chinese city named. The
dispensaries are in different parts of
the city, and as the doctor was leaving
one to go to the other he was called
to come quickly and help a Chinese
doctor.
This Chinese. DOCTOR writes DR..
Vanderburgh, 'had heard of the opera
tions performed in the Presbyterian
hospital and he thought that he must
do some operations to make his name
great, and not let the foreign devil
doctor get all his patients away from
him. So when big strapping fellow
of about 81 years came along and
wanted him to remove a tumor from
his knee the doctor looked it over,
sharpened his knife and cut we'll into
the supposed tumor Then the poor
doctors troubles began. He couldn't
stop the blood, got scared and sent
for me. AS it happened was near by.
When I came near enough to. see the
patient he was sitting on bench,
held up by some friends and two
Chinese. doctors were using raw silk
and powder trying to stop the blood.
II told them to put the man in a
chair and carry him to the hospital,
at the same time sending for Mr..
Locke to give the chloroform. We
operated, sewed him up and soon saw
him safe in bed and doing we'll
':In the meantime word came that
the poor Chinese doctor had been put
in prison. We all thought that that
was hard, and | sent over my card and
asked that he be released, now that
that man operated upon was out of
danger The official sent back word
that a man like that should not be at
large, but that he would send him out
of prison with soldier to watch him.
So he was watched for two or three
days. They now tell me that if the
man had died the Chinese doctor might
have been severely punished or even
killed for it"

Cured Her Rheumatism.

Deep Valley, Pa, Oct. 2d.-(Spe-

Azores, where, after stay of a week
sailing vessel which was bound for
Lisbon, and which had stopped at the
Azores for water. From Lisbon he
came to Italy, and at Genoa sought
his old friend Mutterelli, whom he felt
he could trust implicitly. Being in
formed that Mutterelli was in Cagliari
with Signor WilDerron of New York,
Thorlane made all preparation to en-
ter the country where his life and lib
erty were not safe, and the day he saw
me wounded by the wayside was his
first day in Cagliari. He had found
Mutterelli, and these two at once en-
tered into secret compact, the re-
suits of which we have seen.
Mutterelli was a member of a secret
order in Italy and Sardinia, into which
he initiated Brother Michael" and it
was the authority this membership
gave him that enabled the putative
monk to compel the band of Count di
Pordino to withdraw just when they
held victory in their grasp.
Thorlane, as Brother Michael, be-
came the guest of the superior of the
monastery, and from that vantage
ground proceeded to put into opera
ton all the wires and machinery of his
secret skill to bring to a successful
termination his dangerous mission.
And now that we have seen how
well he carried ont his nurnosos how
steadfast he was in his love and in
his friendship, and how skillfully he
did the work he had on nand, leave
it to the reader to justify the love and
admiration that Nita Barlotti and
felt toward his man, whose nobility
of soul and sterling worth are worthy
of more fitting tribute than can be
conveyed in my feeble and inadequate
language.

They Took 1t in Turns.

Lady Broome, who in her youthful
days in New Zealand used to teach the
shepherds reading and writing, tells
in her Colonial Memories" of two
men living in a lonely and distant
river gorge who used to attend Sun
day afternoon service.
But they never came together, and
their brand new suit of shepherds
plaid always had a strange effect.
'tWhy can you two not come to-
gether," she asked one day, "either to
the lessons or the service?"
There's difficulty about the clothes,
men,"
in what way?"
well, it's this way, mem. We've
only got one suit, and we got it a be-
tween size On purpose. Joe, he's too

Modern Social Demands.

One curious phase of taking our
selves so seriously is the enormously
increased importance of the interest
ing. Society fairly bristles with the
interesting. Sometimes one wonders
where the uninteresting do. Modern
society demands that you should be
something or do something, or say
something, or at least pretend to. 1t
is understood that you must be cele-
brated or notorious, or we'll adver-
tised, or cheeky and even dishonest,
if it is on a magnificent scale. At any
rate, you must take yourself seriously
and get a swelled head.-Rortnightly

AS the Waiter Understood.

A certain social club held it's an
nual convention in large hall con-
nected with a refreshing dispensary.
There was little ceremony beyond
that absolutely necessary to conduct
business, the members draining their
stems and smoking at their ease. The
convention was just getting under
way when a delegate late in arriving
rushed into the hail.
'tWas the convention called to or
der?" he demanded of a waiter who
was standing about, on the watch.
Now, this waiter was not up on par

still holding tightly to the doll, she
was rolled intothe wire net in front
