1t was Jacks duty to hold the noz-
zle, not an easy task with a long,
heavy hose through which water is
tearing at a speed to go over a high
building. His arms were already ach-
ing when the captain saw that his men
were In danger and called through a
megaphone for them to descend. Jacks
three companions at once started down
ward; but, unfortunately for him, the
hose had no hook, so he was com
PEELED to hold it until the men reached
safety. To have abandoned it would
have let 1t go crashing down to split
their skulls or knock them from the
fire escape. BY the time these had
reached the pavement his chances
were entirely cut off. Already the graf
ing beneath his feet was growing hot.
Calling to Look out belowl' Jack
dropped the hose and sprang through
the open window. Within the place
had become a sweatshop indeed. The
smoke choked and blinded him.
Stumbling over chairs, he CROPPED his
way to a side window. which he broke
out with his heavy helmet. Thrusting
his head out for a gulp of fresh air,
he drew his body through the opening
and got a footing on the narrow cop
ing. This was not over four inches
wide and was slippery from the water
thrown on it, which had frozen al
most as soon as it fell. AS Jack was
edging his way along this perilous
footing a crooked rift in the smoke
revealed him to the firemen below. 1t
also revealed him to a white faced girl
in the crowd, but of her presence Jack
was In ignorance. Neither did he hear
the agonized little shrek of Save
him!" Dashing into the adjoining
building, two of the firemen tore up
to the roof, which was a short dis
lance above the spot where he stood.
The exhausted man was almost ready
to fall as four strong hands grasped
him and pulled him to safety.

Looking up, he saw the white face of a
girl and had barely time to brace him
self when he felt her skirts brush his
face as she swept downward. Instinc-
lively he extended his arms and
caught her. 1t was almost a foolhardy
act. but as the coping was broad it
happened to succeed. For one dizzy
moment he thought that her weight
would topple them both to death be-
low, but drawing the girl to the ledge,
disengaging n arm and grasping the
window strips were only the work OF
an instant. The crowd and the fire.
men below had seen the thrilling res
cue, and there was a moment of ago
nized suspense; then q wild cheer rent
the air. Ladders were speedily raised,
and Jack Henderson carried the half
fainting girl to safety. The act was
the wonder of the hour, and the papers
next morning contained accounts such
as stirred ever sensation stated New
York. Jack did not realize that he was
a hero, however. That is almost a
term of reproaeh among firemen. 1t is
all In the days work, a part of the
business.
Jack had been too busy realizing his
heart, but now he could not forget the
white lace at the window or as it was
in roster hue when its owner, Lizzie
Holmes, shyly thanked him for hav-
ing rescued her from certain death.
Jack asked for her new address and
soon found himself calling at the
Holmes fiat. Youth and love were
singing their songs in Jacks heart.
When Off duty on Sundays he and Liz
zie went to the parks, the river front
or Coney Island, and on the long ven
ings when he was not required at the
station they wandered together ON the
streets or sat on the benches in the
little parked breathing spaces scatter
ed over the lower part of the metrop-
oils. The Christmas season was again
approaching when he had proposed to
Lizzie to share a fireman's lot. At
first she had put him off. uncertain Of
her own heart. Was she not in danger
of mistaking this very gratitude for
love, and would 1t be fair to Jack to
tie his life to hers before entirely sure
of the state of her own mind? She told
him to wait" And Jack waited.
On Christmas, as 1t happened. he was
again on duty, and early in the day he
found himself on a hose cart clatter-
ing up in front of a tall and smoking
I'd rookery containing for the most
part sweatshops. Up the front of the
building zigzagged a fire escape, and
he, with a number Of the other "boys,"
was detailed to carry a hose nearly to
the top of this, open a window and
play a stream that would rip off plas-

the blanket till his head was almost
even with the second story windows,
had been compelled to scramble like a

air, had drilled like a soldier, clambered
over roofs, climbed up the sheer sides
of buildings and done the thousand

who are deemed worthy of protecting
the lives and property of a great city.
Among other things, he had been told
by his grizzled p%receptor never to show
nervousness, as hat is a sign of fear;
to obey orders instantly and without
question, even though it were to jump
from the top of a building, and to re-
member always that the motto of the
department was to save life first and
property afterward.
