Soon after the explosion, which took
place about midnight, the police station
was notified and a squad of officers
sent to the scene. Detective Reeves
: was among the first to put in an ap-
pearance and he started systematic
hunt for clews. 1t was found that
Sc whoever had made the attempt at de-
struction had placed the bomb or stick
of dynamite on the tank platform next
to the house. There on the corner of
the bathroom is the mark of the burn
ing powder plainly to view. Giant
powder could still be smelled.
The bedroom of Mr.. and Mrs. Taylor
is but a few feet from this place but
the force of the explosion worked ex-
actly opposite from the direction which
was intended. The tank or water was
blown to bits and a staircase demolish-
ed, while the windows of the house
and plates in the pantry within five
feet of the explosion were not broken.
Mrs. Taylor was but little frightened
as she told her story which Tailed in
the main with the account of the ex-
plosion given by her husband. She
told of being awakened by the loud
a blast of wind and then land slip
or an earthquake. She also looked
out of the windows but went to the
front of the house where there had
been no damage and the first she knew
sof the smashup was when her husband
called to her from the back door. She
then became frightened and went to
her mothers house for aid. Return
ing in a few minutes with lanterns
they were enabled to see what dam
age had been done and that the tank
had been blown up and had not col
Iapsed. She is sure that an attempt
was made on the life of Mr.. Taylor
and recounted an experience of hers
of a year and a half ago when man
called at the house enquiring for the
Chief of Detectives, who was not at
home. She went to the man who was
standing in the yard and asked him
what he wanted. He did not reply but
grumbled something To himself. She
then started for the house and was
struck with a sandbag and felled to
the ground. She recovered conscious
ness about an hour afterwards and
made her way to her house. She call
ed assistance and it was found that she
had a very large swelling on the back
of her head and that her holoku was
all torn from the neck down with the
prints of dirty fingers upon it.
. \ searching investigation is already
underway and it is hoped that the day ;
will bring forth something tangible for ;
the police to work on.

Onions and Pneumonia.

The following remedy is said to be
a cure for pneumonia. Take six to
ten onions, according to size, and chop
fine, put in a large spider over hot
fire, then add the same quantity of
ryemeal and vinegar, enough to form
thick paste. In the meanwhile stir
it thoroughly, letting it simmer five or
ten minutes. Then put in a cotton bag
large enough to cover the lungs, and
apply to chest as hot as patient can
bear In about ten minutes apply
another, and thus continue by re-heat-
ing the poultices, and in a few hours
the patient will be out of danger. This
simple remedy has seldom failed to
cure this too-Often fatal malady. Usu-
ally three or four applications will be
suffi icient, but continue until the per-
spiration starts freely from the chest.

The Origin of the Halo.

In the public places in Athens one
or two thousand years ago the Greeks
set up the statues Of their gods and
eoddesses. To guard against the pos
sibility of the rain staining the mar
BILE faces of their masterpieces, they
used to protect each with a large
metal plate at the top of each head.
These we're mistaken by the pre-
Raphaelite painters for emblems of
divinity. Accordingly, to this day we
see around the pictured heads of our
Christian saints the curious little ring
which is known as the halo

Convenient Bath Mat.

For the boarder or traveller who
cannot always command a bath-tub
for the cold plunge every morning,
quick cold sponge is a necessary sub
stitute.
Here is a contrivance for avoiding
the wetting of carpets and rugs that
is quite as useful as the expensive
rubber bath mats.
Secure a yard and half of wide
table oilcloth and enough large-sized
rope to go around the square. Fold
the edge Of the oilcloth over the rope
and sew it firmly al around to form
a waterproof mat, with raised edge
that will catch all driprings, and that
may be rolled up Wien not in use.

1T was several hours before the
chance was given me to return to
Cousin Rhody's room, and when l did
so l found the coffin closed, and
funeral director in charge with orders
to not again open it.
In vain l plead with the heir to al
low it opened. He had give1I orders
that it should not be. 1t was not pol

would be placed in the family vault.
She had ordered that she was not to
be buried in the ground. She feared
interment. The will, l consoled N.Y.
self, 1 could get at any time. There
were two keys to the vault, and | had
availed myself of one.
"But it was never to be. Knowing
shat Cousin Rhody's death would not
bear investigation, and fearing that
yet the question might be raised rela-
tive to how she died, the heir had the
coffin placed in the stone niche pre-
pared for it, and giving out that he
feared ghouls might steal the body
and ask a reward, he placed heavy
charges of dynamite in and about the
coffin. l did not know of this until too
late.
How he jeered when I told him
where l had hidden Cousin Rhody's
last will. How he scorned me when
1 threatened to tell the lawyer where

could now get at Cousin Rhody

he never married me. He is still liv-

He holds all of Cousin RhOdy's land
intact. He has not squandered it. 1t

Does the housekeeper and lawyer
still live?" the professor hurriedly
asked
YES" came the murmuring reply
But another was speaking now. 1t
was the young nurse, clear and in
cisive:

The hypnotized woman struggled
back to a normal condition, wonder
ing what she might have said
The BrOnck vault was opened by
lawful edict A workman famous for
handling explosive in safe manner was
found willing to take away the stone
from the niche holding the coffin, and
risk moving it out. 1t was then found
shat the present heir had done his
work well; under other hands in re-
moving the explosion that might have
followed would have wrecked town
about that vault. The will was found
as stated by the nurse, but ere it was
found, she and the man she loved-or
hated-had disappeared forever from
that land.

found Cousin Rhody a cross, fright
ened old woman. She was sick,
though her cousin declared to her she
we'll and young she looked, and that
she was good for 25 years yet. She
consulted all manner Of doctors, took
all manner of medicine, and | could
see got worse all the time.
at first she seemed to cling des-
perately to her cousin, but as the end
arrroached she turned more to me,
and would speak of her niece Marjory
and order that she be sent for; but
her cousin saw to it that Marjory nev-
er received the messages
Then, at the last, she became dis
trustful of her cousin. She declared
that Marjory had done right to marry
the man she loved best. She confded
to me that she had secretly sent for a
lawyer to draw up a new will, and
must not let her cousin know of it,
must get the lawyer into the house
late at night Yourself and the
housekeeper can be witnesses, she or

Il did as she asked me to. Marjory
was left the bulk of the fortune, ard
the cousin but modest annuity. The
old lady put the new will under her
pillow, and gave me the old one tC

me, as she supposed, burn it. I was
prepared for this, quicker than she

that she was dying.

THE lawyer who had made Cousin
RhOdy's last Will took 1t on himself
TO look out for that will. He would
not take my word that at the very
last Cousin Rlody ordered me to de
stoy that will, as I could prove by a
housemaid. This maid was deaf and
while she heard enough to know that
Cousin RhCdy had ordered one of the
wills burned she was not quite sure
witch one it might be; bat, under my
direct look, faltered that it was the
newest will
But the lawyer went at the matter
In high handed manner. He put
every room and drawer in the house
under lock and key until search was
made for that will. He sent for a
woman to not only search my room
but myself for that missing will, which
