\ Birmingham. Aug. sf.--(special. l--- Several hundred refugees from Natchez and Warren County, Mississippi, passed through the city this morning. .en route northward on trains of the Ala bama Great Southern Railroad. The quarantine off1cials at this point. hear Ing reports that many people on the trains had purchased tickets to Bir- mingham, there being no quarantine against Natchex when the frains left that place. went to the State line and gave out the information that the State had declared a quarantine against peo- pie from Natchez and notified them that they must not make any effort to get off at this point
 The quarantine officials had no trouble whatsoever when they arrived in Birmingham. The trains were held here an hour and longer in order to give the people aboard something to eat. Positively no effort was made by the refugees to leave the train here nor antine officials were here to see that no one left the trains, and accompanied the refugees northward. Quite a large amount of food was distributed among the passengers. No few were disap- pointed at not being able to leave the trains at this point.
 Supervisor Barnes Morgan has placed guards at the Mississippi and Alabama line near Toomsuba, Miss,, to see that no one attempts to come Into the State that way. Many people in Birming- ham have relatives in Mississippi and in the infected districts and have writ ten letters asking them to come to Bir- mingham. s

kles on her brow, around her eyes and
mouth, paints her face yellow, and
gives a lackluster eye that no artifice
can brighten. 1t is quite unnecessary
to worry, and it is a total waste of en-
ergy which could be better employed
in doing something useful.
You know worrying woman the
moment you see her. Her character is
written in her face in wrinkles which
you would think nothing short of a
miracle would obliterate. Downright
ugliness is a heavy price to have to
pay for the possession of a bad habit,
but there it is. And not only does
worry directly influence the complex
ion for evil, it's more remote effects
are no less potent in robbing the face
of the peach-bloom tints which are the
admiration of the poet. the painter, and
the general public. Worry affects the
entire nervous system, and through it
the liver and organs of digestion cnd
the heart. The things a woman thiL., s
have more than anything else the pow
er to make or mar her beauty; so let
her beware of worrying overmuch. lest
she lose the greatest of all the gifts.

CHAPTER XVIII.

Mrs. Gilbert stayed at home all
through the day which succeeded her
parting from Roland Lansdel She stay
ed in the dingy parlor, and read a little,
and played upon the piano a little. and
sketched few profile portraits of Mr..
Lansdell, desperately inky and senti-
mental, with impossibly enormous eyes.
From the window she saw a lady in
a carriage driving slowly toward the
gate. The lady was Gen. Ruysdales
daughter, who, having recognized Isabel
at the window, saluted her with a very
naughty inclination of the head. abandon
ed the reins to her attendant, and alight-
ed.
Oh. what a dingy, shabby place that
Graybridge parlor was always. how
doubly and trebly dingy it seemed to-
day by contrast with that gorgeous fig
ure of Gwendoline Pomphrey. Mrs. Gill
bert brought a chair for her visitor, and
asked in a tremulous voice e Gwendo-
line would be pleased to sic Isabel felt
that some calamity was G. ming down
upon her; and she stood pae and silent,
meekly waiting to receive her sentence.
Pray sit down. Mrs. Gilbert" said
GwendOline. Il wish to have a little
conversation with you. l am very glad
to have found you at home and alone.
The lady spoke very kindly, but her
kindness had a stately GOODNESS that
crept like melting ice through Isabels
veins, and chilled her to the bone.
Il am older than you, Mrs. Gilbert"
said Gwendoline, after little pause,
and she slightly WINGED as she made the
confession; Il am older than you; and if
| speak to you in a manner that you
may have some right to resent as an inn
pertinent interference with your affairs.
| trust that You will believe | am influ-
enced only by sincere desire for your
welfare"
Isabels heart sank to a profounder
depth of terror than before when she
heard this.
Il am older than you, Mrs. Gilbert"
repeated Gwendoline, and | know my
cousin Roland Lansden much better
than you can possibly know him."
The sound of the dear name, the sa-
cred name. which to IsabePs mind
should only have been spoken in hush
ed whisper. like tender pianiSsimo pas
sage in music, shot home to the foolish
girls heart. Her face flushed crimson.
and she claSped her hands together
while the tears welled slowly up to her
eyes.
Il know my cousin better than you
can know him; | know the world better
than you can know it. There are some
women, Mrs. Gilbert. who would con
denim you unheard, and would consider
their lips sullied by any mention Of your
| name. There are many women in my
| position who would hold themselves aloof
from you, content to let you go your
own way. But l take leave TO think for
myself in all matters. l have heard Mr..
| Raymond speak very kindly of you;
cannot judge you as harshly as other peo-
pie judge YOU
"Oh. what. what can they think of
me?' cried Isabel, trembling with a
vague fear, an ignorant fear of some

Impossible to Escape from Espionage
in Cars Domain.
Russia is preseminently the land of
spies. Democratic and socialistic
France has raised the spy system to
a state function, but in Russia it is
the very soul of the state. In Moscow
in the streets, agents of the police are
stationed every five hundred yards; in
addition, secret agents watch the
houses day and night-one being al
lotted to every four houses; and in
every house is another spy, the porter.
Go where you will. you are never out
of the watchful eye of the police. You
brush against spies in your hotel, as
in the theaters; in a restaurant, as in
the drawingroom of friend. 1t is
ridiculously easy to recognize those
you meet in the fashionable resorts
They have evidently been instructed to
disguise themselves as gentlemen, and
for one of them the livery of a gentle
man is a frock coat, a silk hat, and
always-by rain or sunlight-an UNI
brella. The famous third police! A
stranger might fancy that, in an open
cab-talking French or English to his
friend The would at least be safe from
surveillance; but his friend will touch
him significantly and speak of the
weather. The fat cabby on the box
somnolent, with white hair and good
paternal eyes, may be a spy, more
skilled in the languages than the trav.
cling stranger; and, if the cabman has
been found lettering near the great
clubs, the hotels, or the embassies, the
chances are strong that he is. A
subtler police than that of the third
section-the akrama, which has its
qualifications in every capital in Eu
rope and America-completes this
great system of espionage. It's mesh
is over every man in Russia; no one
goes unwatched-save only old Count
Tolstoi.-Vance Thompson, in Success
Magazine.
