cretan Seals.

Some OF the greatest scholars have
used their learning more as a weapon
than a means of Illumination Pro-
fessor Lewis Campbell's gentleness
and courtesy may be illustrated by
the following true story: Some years
ago he was in the chair at a meeting
Of the Hellenic society when DIR. Ar
thur Evans described the results Of
some of his first excavations in Crete.
Among his finds were a number Of
seals and other relics showing traces
Of affinity with early Egyptian art.
Discussion followed. in the course of
which venerable admiral, who had
been present at the battle of NavarinO.
rose and said that he did not know
whether he was in order. but he would
like to state that I'm the year 1923,
when he was cruising in the Levant.
he saw a herd of seals off the coast of
Crete-a sight which he had never seen
before or since. The situation was
delicate, but it was staved by the
chairman, who rose Immediately to
express the thanks of the meeting to
the admiral for his interesting rem
iniscence. Here" he said. 1--WE have
another link with Egypt. for all of us
must remember the story in the Odys-
sey of Proteus and his herd of seals
on the island near the mouth of the
Nile."-London Spectator.

Early in the campaign Powers hal
suggested that the liberal use of her
face had rendered the girl rather con-
spicuous, so the company paid for a
carriage that took her to and from her
work.
At first Hosmer had approved the
suggestion, but now he went to the
other extreme. There was no chance
to walk home with Miss Pryor, and his
request for permission to call was met
with a polite negative.
He and Vaughn could only fight it
out during office hours, and when
Vaughn objected to Hosmer's contin-
ued presence in the shipping depart
ment and asked Powers to give Hos
mer hint to that effect the sales ex-
pert retaliated by again reverting to
his suggestion that Miss Pryor should
be transferred TO the sales office.
The constant pickering could have
but one effect. From surliness they
passed to open warfare. and at last
they brought the matter to the head of
the firm.
Each pleaded his case. and then they
stood waiting the decision with an
anxiety that showed plainly in their
faces. Each felt that a victory with
the chief would aid his fight, and the
moments that passed after the case
had been stated were painful to them
both.
Powers glanced slowly from one to
the other, and his face broke into a
smile
you both say that you have the
right to Miss PryOr's services" he be-
gan slowly. I'm afraid that you will
both have to hire other typists. Miss
Pryor tells me that you both are-er-
rather cordial to her. 1t seems that
you. Vaughn, have suddenly discovered
that you need Miss Pryor. Only lit
tie while before the advertising cam
paign was started you told me that
you should have to put on another
girl, as Miss Pryor was willing, but
slow. fancy that the way out of this
will be to get another Dentola girl and
another typist for the shipping depart
ment"
There's no reason for such drastic
actiOnr' cried HOsmer, but Powers only
smiled again.
There is an excellent reason" he
said slowly. Il am to marry Miss
Pryor. She did me the honor to ac-
cept me, and as soon as the Dentola
craze is forgotten we will be married
| Meanwhile she has her royalty from
the use of her picture, and she will not

told you this, Vaughn, had you waited
until this afternoon
Vaughn, too daZed to speak, turned
and left the office, and Hosmer was
about to follow when Powers detained
him with a word.

 Tower w.


 At the end of long and neglected hall on the second floor of the old bank block in Hill street, Whispering Smith had a room in which he made headquarters at Medicine Bend; it was in effect Whispering Smiths home.
 The door of the room in the course of many years had been mutilated with keyholes and re-enforced with locks until it appeared difficult to choose an opening that would really afford en- trance; but two men besides Whisper ing Smith carried keys to the room Kennedy and George McCloud. They had right of way into it at all hours, and knew how to get in.
 McCloud had left the bridge camp on the river for Medicine Bend on the Saturday that Marion Sinclair-whose husband had finally told her he would give her enc more chance to think it over-returned with Dicksie safely from their trip to the Frenchman ranch.
 Whispering Smith, who had been with Bucks and Morris Blood, got back to town the same day. The president and general manager were at the Wickiup during the afternoon, and left for the east at nine o'clock in the evening, when their car was attached to an east-bound passenger train. Mo. Cloud took supper afterward with Whispering Smith at Front street chophouse, and the two men separated at Il o'clock. It was three hours later when McCloud tapped on the door of Smiths room. and in a mo- ment opened it. Awake, Gordon,"
 Sure; come in. What is it?"

Pursuit.

Brill Young picked up a trail Sunday morning lt Tower W before the spe- cial from Medicine Bend reached there. The wrecked express car which had been set out, had no story to tell. The only story, said Whis pering Smith, as the men climbed into their saddles, 'is in the one from the hoofs. and the sooner We get after Ii the better"
 The country around Tower w, which Is itself an operating point on the western end of the division, a mere speck on the desert. lies high and rolling. To the south, 60 miles away, rise the Crosse Terre mountains, and 10 the north and west lie the solitudes of the Heart r~nge, while in the north east are seen the three white Saddle peaks of the Missions. The cool bright sunshine of far and lonely horizon greets the traveller here. and ten miles away from the railroad, in any direction. a man on horseback and unacquainted with the country would wish himself-mountai men will tell you-in hell, because it would be cas- fer to ride out of
 To the railroad men the country offered no unusual difficulties. The Youngs were as much al home on a horse as on a hand car. Kennedy. though large and powerful man, was inured to hard riding. and Bob Scott and Whispering Smith in the saddle were merely a part-thongh an i'm. portant part-of their horses; without killing their mounts. they could gel out of them every mile in their legs The five men covered 20 miles on 2 trail that read like print.
