ADVICE FROM JAPAN.

Professor Ohmori, seismologist,
and Professor Nakamura, an architect,
of Toxic, have been ordered to pro
coed to San Francisco to study the re-
cent earthquake and offer their SER
vices II required.
Here is something that the Japa-
nese may be able to do to our advan-
tage without unduly taxing their own
resources Japan is a land of earth
auakes and its investigators have
studied them to some practical pur-
pose They have not only made i'm.
portant discoveries regarding the oc-
currence of earthquakes but their
architects, there Is reason to believe,
lead the world in the construction OF
buildings capable of withstanding
earthquake shocks.
Professor Ohmori Is a competent OBJ
server Of earthquakes and Professor
Nal<amura Is an architect skilled In
the construction of buildings to with.
stand earthquake shocks, Both OF
them may be able to give the people
of San Francisco who furnish the
money for building and those who
plan the buildings valuable informa-
ton and advice
The people of the western metropo-
lis can not afford to neglect such in
formation and advice from whatso-
ever source they may come, as these
aids may be of far greater and more
enduring value than such relief as ply
sicians may be able to afford.

CHAPTER xxxVlIl.

Yorke went In. Finetta was lying
ON sofa--lying with that awful inert
look which tells It's own story, The
shapely arms hung down Imply help
lessly: across her face, white as DEATH
a thin line of blood trickled, coming
again as fast as the trembling dresser
wiped II away. One or two women
stood near her, silent and apprehen-
slve.
Are you hurt, Fin?" he said, in
low voice
Yes" she said Badly, think,
Some-some fool left the trap UNI
bolted. Ola CLEAN Of fire shot
into her eyes for momett--"or was
it done on purpose, eh? There's one
or two here who wouldn't DO sorry to
have me out of the bills. Well,
they'll have heir wish--ror short
time"
Have you sent for Il doctor?'
Doctor! don't want any doctor
here. want to go home Take me
home. Yorke. Never mind what they
say, Take me home, II you have to
do 1t on n stretcher!"
Very well, he said.
You can't do 1t, I'm afraid, my
lord She's too badly hurt to be
moved" said the major.
Don't listen to him. Yorke, Take
me home
A long, slight table stood in the
passage, Yorke wrenched the legs
off and called to a couple of carpen-
tiers. Then, with the help of the
manager and dresser, no laid Finetta
on this impromptu stretcher, and car
ried her to the hrougham which was
waiting outside.
Drive slowly" he said to the man,
mo; let him 20 fast! can bear
it
Yorke sat beside her and supported
her, and she lay with her head on his
shoulder, her teeth set hard, her
lands graspng each other, and no cry
or groan passed her lips.
At the sound OF the brougham
wheels, Polly came to the door and
uttered cry OF alarm at the sight of
her sister lying limp and helpless In
Yorke's arms
oh Lord Yorkel" she gasped
Don't be frightened, Polly" he
said, "Finetta has met with an nc.
cident"
Get her undressed and into bed,
he said, I'm going for Doctor
"You--you will come back, Iorke.
"Of course" he said. keep up your
heart, Fin. You'll be all right"
1t seemed an age before the doctor
came down,
'Well?" asked Yorke. anxiously,
she Is very badly hurt Oh, no
