 CHAPTER XvIII-(Continued).
 Leaning back against the warm rocx, Tapped In the serene peacefulness of the spot. Jessica fell into reverie. Never since her wedding day had she said to herself boldly "l love him" never till yesterday. Now all was changed. Her thought was a tremu- lous assurance: "l shall stay here near him day after day, watching. Some day his memory will come back. and then my love will comfort him. The town will forget 1t has hated and will come to honor him. Some time, seeing how be is changed. his father will for give him and take him back. and we shall all three go home to the white house In the aspens. If not. then my place will still be with Hugh. Perhaps We shall live here. Perhaps a cabin like that will be home. and shall live with him and work with him and care for him."
 Thus she dreamed-a new day dream. unravagcti by the sordid tests Of yer. ity.

Justiee Marshall's Day.
In an old biography of Chief Justice
Marshall there is an anecdote which
gives significant hint Of the disci-
pline to which young people were sub

Several OF the great jurist's niecxB
were In the habit Of visiting him, and
as they were young and attractive the
house became rendezvous for the
leading young men of the city during
the afternoons. Judge Marshalrs black
major domo, old Uncle Joseph. held q
tight rein upon these visitors, Every
day at 4 O'clock ne would appear at
the door OF the drawing room in spot

would announce:
Ladies, his honor the chief justice

honor will be pleased II you will re

The gentlemen usually took their
leave, and the ladies' retired in an III

rule of the house. Young folks must
be kept within bounds"
In Virginia houses Of the better class
notwithstanding their almost bound

to an unmarried girl unless his ante

The Mystery Of This Wonderful Force

The Mystery Of This Wonderful Force
IN Nature
When plants are grown IN recepta-
cles fastened to the rim Of q rapidly
revolving wheel, the shoots and leaves
grow toward the center and the roots
away from the center Of revolution
This is remarkable as showing the ia
nuence Of centrifugal motion Gpon
growth
But the earth. any point in whose
surface at the equator passes through
fifteen miles IN one minute. has cen.
trifugal motion so swift and so great
that Il is almost inconceivable. Why.
then. reasoning on the basis OF this
wheel experiment, do not trees and
plants grow IN the directions they are
urged by this centrifugal force-name-
ly, with leaves and boughs toward the
earth's center and roots pointing to the
sky?
The answer is because there Is n
force called gravitation which over
powers the enormous centrifugal force
and practically reverses It. Whether
this overmastering force which we call
gravitatlon is electrical or what It IS
no me has yet been able TO discover.
There an be no doubt TINT It is the
greatest force we know OF.
To unveil the mystery OF It would be
to become masters OF power whose
possibilities ;lazzle the human mind.
