As he finally passed beyond the en-
emy's pickets and felt safe, his
thoughts began to turn once more
towards Lyndhurst.
He wondered whether the old Garky
with his snailmoving mule could have
arrived and delivered the note Major
Worden. had so kindly written con.
corning his fate.
II so, how would she receive It?
Colonel John wanted to be magnan-
imous. but he was deeply Interested
here. and he never in his life wished
so much for anything as a chance to
witness what occurred when that note
was delivered
1t would possibly settle some little
matters in his mind. which were be.
ginning to worry him.
And thinking thus, he reached the
gate that opened into the spacious
grounds Of Lyndhurst.
Then the house loomed up.
Lights could still be seen about the
house, though the hour was close on
to midnight.
He wondered at this, for they re-
tired early as a usual thing
Upon entering the house John felt
deep satisfaction over his escape
Somehow he seemed to associate It
with Mollle-why not, when she was
the prime cause of his adventure?
He advanced to the library; a voice
fell upon his ears, voice that was
peculiar, and which he knew belonged
to the odd genius of a darby who had
driven the mule by means of which
Worden conducted his prisoner of war
TO the shell-wrecked house
The special courier had arrived
ahead of him.
Colonel John halted Just beyond the
door. A mirror in the hall reflected
the interior of the library, and he
could see that Mollie was alone with
Worden's messenger, who was fun.

Germs.

Cupid was showing us through his
laboratory. There were rows and
rows of great Jars that contained the
germs that thrive in kisses.
"Show us the most harmless germ, "
we implored.
Cupid removed the cover from a
big green jar
These are the most harmless. They
are found in the kisses OF schoolgirls
and elderly maidens."
"And now the most dangerous
germs"
Cautiously Cupid unscrewed the
cover of a steel protected Jar.
Here are the most dangerous OF
all. They are found in the kisses OF
chorus girls and grass widows"
