age around the world. 1t has always
been an idea of the president that the
navy, like the army, should be main
'tained at a high standard of efficiency
and he has INDUCED in the further idea
that constant practice is the best guar

joint maneuvers and its rifle practice;
the trip of the bat+'eships will take the
place OF joint manauvers, and the indi-
vidual Warships have their practice every
season. In case OF war with a foreign
power the American navy would very
likely be concentrated at the center of
activity Ur to the present time there
has been no such concentration since the
close of the Spanish war. The navy has
been divided into fleets or squadrons, and
quite often the respective fleets or squad
rons have Unanswered as units. But
there has been no such concentration as
is now proposed, and no such practice on

THE SANDAL-WOOD BOX.
By Gilbert Stanhope.

1t had been a long and weary
ing day, and it was with sigh OF
relief that Leslie Brandon at
length turned his steps toward his
tent. The last of the recalcitrant
headmen of the Looshai tribes,
whose revolt had been the cause
of this punitive expedition, had
rendered his submission, the last
fine cxacted for the murder of in
offensive villagers had been paid;
the restless tribesmen had solemn
ly promised to abstain from thiev-
ing, ravaging and killing, fully in
tending to keep this promise as
long as the strong arm of the Bri-
tish Raj was within striking dis
tance-and no longer. The small
expeditionary force was free to
return now from the desolate
highlands Of Upper Burma to
India and civilization. Leslie
Brandon's heart leapt within him
at the thought of that bungalow
in Bombay, where, as soon as it
was possible to get leave, he would
find his true love waiting for him,
and where he would forget in the
joys of re union, all the pangs of
parting and all the dangers and
discomforts that his being chosen
for special duty as transport Off
Ger in this little expedition had
entailed.
He was startled from his bliss

Then she broke down utterly,
flung her arms on the table, and
laying her head upon them, burst
into an uncomfortable flood of
tears.
The vision gradually faded; the
smoke wreath dispersed; and Les

the Burma hillside, with the rays

But Leslie was in that frame of
mind to which nothing is impos-
sible, and he continued to plead
with [ feverish eagerness and that
strength of purpose which over
comes all obstacles. The colonel
liked the young fellow and knew
that he had had a hard time and
had done good work in the Looshai
country. and so the impossible
happened, and Leslie found him

for the earliest moment at which il
would be possible to call at the

match and applied it to the paper
dropping it at the same time into
the little jade bowl.
A faint aromatic odor arose
from the bowl, and thin wreath
of smoke. Leslie looked tixedly
at it, thinking Of well it did not
take him long to decide of whom
to think. The thin ring of smoke
seemed to form itself into frame,
a frame that at first surrounded
nothingness, but gradually one
feature after another came into
distinctness.
There was a room with cool,
clean mating on the floor and a
light pretty chintz on the furni-
ture-a girls room by the dainti-
ness of its adornment. And on
the sofa lay girls form, but it
was convulsed with sobbing, the

cushion as if to deaden the
anguish of pain.
Leslie caught his breath. 1t
was Gladys, and his heart ached
at the sight of her anguish. What,
in heavens name, was her troublel
1t was maddening to see her and
not to know.
He looked long at the weeping
figure. Then his eye caught
sight of sandal-wood box lying
on the floor close beside the sofa.
With start he recollected it as
one he had sent her after they had
parted at Bombay, and before he
started for Burma. He had one
