CHAPTER XXIY.

With his hat tilted over his brows
O'Rourke walked on staring at the pave
ment. Suddenly a timid voice breathed
his name, and looking up with a great
start, he beheld the widow, who stood
near him with pale face, eyes swollen
with many recent tears, and clasped, Pc
titioning hands.
Hector" said the widow, In fright
ened and appealing voice.
Julia" he answered. He was glad
that his own face was pale, and that his
eyes were haggard with trouble. He was
rejoiced that he was detected in mien
and careless in dress.
II ought not to speak to you" she
said, hutteringly. But 1 couldn't help
it. Hector. l want you to tell me the
truth-the real truth"
Julia" he said, II have nothing but
the truth to tell you" He was half re-
proachful, wholly plying, and devoted
in his looks. May 1 drive home with
you? May 1 tell you everything?"
YES" she said, laying both hands
upon her heart, and huttering painfully.
Come. Tell me the truth"
Under any less pressure than this"
he answered, "it would be unmanly to
tell it. But the whole truth is that
woman's unfounded and unreasonable
jealousy has parted us and made us both
unhappy"
Hector, I told her so. But she said
she hated you"
"My darling, said O'Rourke, with
lofty and yet tender remonstrance do
you see how impossible, how cruelty i'm
possible, you made it for me to defend
myself properly in her presence? Don't
you see how still more cruelty impossi-
BILE it was for me to defend myself when
Maskeyne appeared? How could wound
Maskelyne? A man I've loved like a
brother this ten years A man who has
heaped countless BENEFITS on me- A man
who has acted toward me with a con-
slant kindness! Julia, l swear to you

Buffers prediction for myself before

for the truth, Julia, and you shall have
it all without disguise If you and

CHAPTER XIII.

Beautiful summer we are havin'," said
Mr.. Frost, with CHASTITY attempt to seem
at ease. His lips were blue, and his
eyes we're dilated and curiously pale.
Neither O'Rourke nor Zeno took the
slightest notice of him, but each regarded
the other fixedly.
Zeno, ito discuss the purchase of arms
for IrelandT
That is why 1 am here" answered
Zeno.
when that Is over we will find
private place somewhere and discuss an
other question:" O'Rourke said quietly.
Very WELL" said zeno, just as calmly.
Dobroski and O'Rourke discussed the
business of the morning seriously, and
Zeno's aspect of seriousness was com
plete. The patriot had never before con-
cerned himelf personally in an enterprise
OF this kind, and would scarcely have
rared for Frost as a colleague even now
lf he had not felt so sure of his hold
over him. The discovery of the morning
alone would have given him power
which Frost would have been powerless
to fight against, and even apart from that
ne Rhe" enough 10 oreah MN score OF
times over.
When the morning business was fin
ished. and it had been finally arranged
that the whole details of the purchase
should be left practically in ORourke's
hands. with Frost to act as his inferno
diary, the three guests took their leave
together.
"Where can we have that talk I spoke
aboutY asked O'Rourke, as they came
upon the street.

same establishment he got his furniture

nowT
Nothing" O'Rourke confessed-"noth-
ing He began to think that Frost was
inventing some sham secret to keep back
what he knew, and he watched and list
ened keenly, but with ne great appear
ance of interest.
Try a bit further" said Frost, still
leaning forward and speaking in whis-
per. This struck me as being all q lft-
tie bit queer | wasn't let know much
and it kind of piqued me- so took walk

wasn't long in finding out what I'd guess
cd to be about the thing before. The
stock for Calais was the same as the stock
for Vienna, and the stock for Vienna was
the same, to a teacup. as had gone 10
Zeno's rooms. Anything in all that,
now?" The patriots eyes were bent upon
the floor, and his face was shaded in his
hand "Three sets O. rooms furnished
alike to a hair. Calais is on the way
to Vienna. Vienna's on the way to
good many places, but l reckon the Rus
sian frontiers on the list, amt it? Draw

~ ! .t.,cr on &c
panion, and Selling him by the wrist
IF Austin Farley's new novel is on the
book stalls yet?" His look was triumph
ant for the moment and, indeed, he
thought he had trapped Frost with great
neatness. Farley had never written
book with the theme of which O'Rourke
had not been made acquainted long before
its first page had reached the public, and
he knew this story perfectly. Frost did
not look in the least disconnected. On
the contrary, his eyes took a new light of
certainty, and he slapped the table en-
phatically with the hand O'Rourke had
left al liberty.
Austin Farley?" he CRIED with a voice
of triumph. 1T was him that guessed
that Zeno was spy. And couldn't
make out how 1t was that he was SO
sweet ON him in spite of that. Said he
was pearl of men, and a man of genius.
Said he'd love him for a collaboration.
l asked him what set him admiring Far
ley, and he said it was his native talent.
If Farley's done a book like that, he's
got his idea out Of it, that's positive"
O'Rourke knew Frost for an unblush-
ing liar, but it was improbable to his
mind that Farley's book could be out as
yet.
He dismissed Frost, and wandered out
into the streets, striving to Danish his
own thoughts.
He walked on gloomily, not knowing
whittier he went, and not caring, and
conscience struck him hot and hard all
the way. Yet what could he do? Moth
ing but torment himself until the thing
was done. And afterward, forever.

Finally Bowles whipped out re.

Hamilton and shot Spicer in the leg
By this time Spicer had drawn lis gun
and was firing at Bowles when Frazier
joined in the shooting.
When the smoke cleared away it was
found that Spicer was dead, with two
bullets in his chest, and Bowles had
been killed with ball through the
heart. Frazier was shot through the
bowels and will die.

Remedy For Bad Roads.

The remedy for bad roads, 1t seems
to me, lies wholly with the men who
own property along them. Elect no
man to the position Of overseer who
does not understand how to make good
roads out Of poor ones. If there Is no
such man in your neighborhood, hire
one from outside. This is, ninety-nine
times out Of hundred, the wisest
thing to do, for the chances are that
there is no man in the neighborhood
who has had practical experience
enough to make it safe to trust the work
to him, says Eben e. Rexford in the
Outing Magazine for June. He may
have good sense. good Judgment and
all that-in short, there may be the
making of good road builder in him
but what you need Is a man who is a
good road builder, man who has got
the trade already learned. In other
words, you can't afford to wait for
home talent to develop If the man who
has developed his ability in that direc-
ton is procurable. Have your road
tax paid in cash. Secure skilled
man, and let him assume responsibility
for the work he undertakes. If you do
this, you stand in fair way to solve
the problem of good roads.

Oil Roads In liiinoIs.

A most interesting experiment is be-
Ing conducted in central Illinois, near
Springfield. The state highway CON-
mission is making test Of oil on coun-
try roads. While oil roads are no nov
city in many parts Of the United
States, they are not known on the
heavy black soil Of central Illinois.
The top soil Of the road is being mixed
with an asphalt oil to depth Of six
inches. What the results will be no one
can predict but this may be the solu-
ton Of the good roads problem. In
many parts of the Sucker State stone
roads are out Of the question. With
out the material near at hand the
great prairie states cannot expect to
have stone pixies, as do some Of the
eastern states. Good roads must be
secured by drainage, special care and
possibly by the use Of oil. This expert
ment will be watched with great
deal of interest.

GUS state organizations are taking the
matter up. national conventions are
being held, and an international meet
Ing was recently called to convene in

better highways. better facilities for

A good road brings one nearer to
his neighbors, nearer to his church
and school and nearer to his market.
The time will soon come when one
will speak of farm as being ten min
utes distant from town rather than
two miles. The popularity which the
automobile Is rapidly acquiring among
farmers will promote this good roads
movement.
In line with this movement the fol-

HOUSEWIFE SUGGESTIONS.

Sweet apples will cook better and
have a more delicious flavor If a little
lemon juice or pure cider vinegar is
added.
If lettuce is kept for several hours It
should be laid on a wet towel and
placed on the cellar floor or in the
refrigerator.
Implanted wood will remain whittier
II scrubbed with cold water and soap.
Hot water and strong alkaI will make
the wood yellow.
When washing pongee silk never
wiring It at all. Simply hang It on the
line and let the water drip out. Iron
with a warm iron when dry.
II the sink pipe is clogged remove
the strainer and insert the hose into II
and turn the water on full force. In
almost all cases it cleans the pipe.
If porcelain vessels are placed direct
" over the gas fame they will clean
much better by rubbing lard over the
outside Of the pan before putting 1t
over the flame.
For 'orange jelly in ambush" well
known cook directs one to cut oranges
in half, remove the pulp and Juice and
with the Juice prepare enough orange
jelly to I'LL half the number Of orange
cups" Then flll the remaining pieces
with q charlotte russo mixture. When
both are firm put them together In
pairs and tie together with white baby
ribbon.

Women and Morals.

We hope that women who claim
their rights will use them soberly and
well. 1t is Of Ill omen that most Of the
novels that throw morality to the
winds and picture vicious living in Sc
ductive colors as an exercise Of free
dom and self realization are written by
women. Women are the natural custo-
dams Of high moral standard. and If
they lower the standard they will fall
themselves and drag men down with
them.

Simple Everyday Life Of the Queen Of

Few people can realize the compar-

in Scotland or at Sandringham. While
in Norfolk the queen spends much Of
her time in the open air. walking. driv-

but have gold stocks, and white satin
breeches and white silk stockings COM
plete their stately costume. All the
royal menservants are over six feet in
height.
The queen is an indefatigable letter
writer. She has been known to write
as many as forty letters in one day
with her own hand, and Miss Knollys,
her lady in waiting, often would get
through a hundred, all written under
the queens personal supervision.
Queen Alexandra's note paper is
cream colored and rather rough. with
the royal crown and address in dark
blue and Of the simplest design.
During the shooting season the queen
sends a great deal Of game to her own
particular friends, and the hampers
are labeled with the queens compli-
ments." At Christmas time she often
presents her intimates with a signed
photograph Of herself in silver frame.
Queen Alexandra is a keen photogra-
pher and has transferred some of her
photographs on to china.
