! II was the burning thoughts OF the
human lives he had taken that possess
ed his soul.
! But again his sophistry came to his
aid He argued that by taking these
| lives he was laying in blood the foun
dation stone Of everlasting peace.
Thus again did he harden his heart
The men in the airship were hud
died together. Langley sat by the
steering gear, more uead than alive
4, His face was gray. and the sweat
poured from his forehead down his
cheeks. His mouth was quivering, al
though IL was tightly closed.
| The other men sat punched to-
gether, sullen and silent. They did
not look at Strong nor did Strong
glance at them.
For Strong realized that they re-
sarded what he had done as murder.
They did not look on il as war.
And how he was in some perplexity.
From the castle TO the station he had
laid the main thoroughfare in ruins.
The streets were full OF the dying and
the dead--full OF the wounded, who
screamed, and the unframed. who
walled
The sight OF these struck terror to
his heart. Would IL ever be possible,
he wondered to himself, to placate, the
people whom he had treated thus?
Would IL be possible to persuade them
that he had done them this frightful
injustice. this horrible evil. for their
ultimate good?
He saw that there was no course
but to go forward. and, IL the people
revolted against him, To subdue them
by force. They must be on his side or
he must wipe them out.
His heart was as stone by now. and
his Jaws were clenched together like
heel trap.
He shut out from his calculation the
ruin and bloodshed which he had
wrought, for he found himself in the
position OF a Napoleon with tender
heart.
So he decided 10 forget and to kill
his tender heart save one little corner
the corner which held Diana-the
little corner which should prove his
salvation and hers, and the salvation
OF the ruins beneath him.
Now he swept the whole city very
carefully with his glasses. Upon the
terrace before the palace he could see
that the troops were restless a sure
indication that they were murmuring.
The king had gone from the bal
cony. and, thank heaven! Diana was no
longer there. The troops who. had
lined the streets beneath them were
now centering amid thew reckage OF
the main thoroughfare and heroically
getting TO work among the wounded
and the general destruction.
From the hills on the west OF the
town he could see that the army corps
encamped there were beginning to
move He Judged that they were CEN
tering on the town.

in that | shall simply proceed TO lay
waste the town"
No answer came from the instru.
ment in the ministry
Strong was persistent. He de-
manded TO know, should the premier
be In a position to deal with the affair
himself. whether the little code which
he had devised would be acceptable
or not.
There was pause. but finally the
answer came that such would be the
case.

Preservation of the Forests is
a New Patriotism.

There Is a great movement under
way throughout the United States to-
day. II is the marshaling OF public
sentiment for the preservation OF the
forests. We used to think that the
great American forests were mex
haustible And they were, for the
generation in which our grandfathers
lived. People of that day had all the
wood they wanted 10 burn. But since
their time we have been doing so
mnny things with wood. besides using
ID for fuel. that forests OF trees have
fallen before the woodman's AK where
one tree fell before. There are a
dozen commercial purposes for wood
which have developed today. II is used

effects on his stocks. He reports that
the flow Of milk increased from the
first day it was fed and the COWS inn

Molasses in a soluble carbohydrate
which no vegetable eater can live
without. The advantage over starch
Is that starch has to be converted in
to q soluble state before 1t can pass
to chyme; moIasscs being soluble re

and sugar as we'll as molasses, are
composed Of nearly equal parts OF
