The nurse stepped into the car, and
the maid brought the child to her.
"Nassy bump" said the boy "Will

The maid put her lips to the curly
head. The policeman and the chauf-
feur stepped into the car.
"l'll straighten up the carriage and
tie the horse" said Arthur Gordon.
THANK you" said the big police
man. You're all right
The car moved away, the little boy
waving his chubby hand to the maid.
Arthur Gordon Strengthened up the
phaeton, which showed but little
damage and then tied the patient old
horse to the nearest post.
The maid watched him for a mo-
ment. Then she went back to the
stanhope.
Arthur was smiling when he re-
sumed his seat.
That was quite an episode" he
said. Then it suddenly occurred to
him that episode was not the sort

The machine swerved little.
'And where did you meet a roaring
lion?" the maid inquired.
He frowned.
Il talk too much" he said.
1T might have been somewhere
along the line of the Uganda railway"
said the maid.
There are lions there, believe"
he abruptly answered.
"But of course, lions were not the
only annoyances that bothered the
English engineers"
He shook his head at her.
"You have been listening" he said.
That's one Of my most admired
qualities" said the maid.
Perhaps you even know my
name"
The girl nodded the stunning hat.
"Yes, Arthur Gordon, late of Lon.
don, and son Of Lord Sholto Gordon"
Arthur groaned
And my cousin Emily promised me
not to repeat word of this.
OF course you heard it all from Miss
The stunning hat was shaken vio-
lently.
NO" the maid replied. "You must
not blame your cousin. Does she
know that you have come here to take
an important engineering position

Does she know that you mean to be-
come an American citizen?
He could only stare at her.
The electric turned corner and
drew up to the curb at little distance
from a handsome residence. There
were many other automobiles halted
in the street.
"This is our destination" said the
maid.
Arthur slipped from the machine.

The maid arose.

THEME WAS PETERS
 GREAT CONFESSION <
Rev. VermiIIiOn Preached Strong Ser mOn Last Night at Gie Ghio Street Baptist Church,

At the revival meeting at the Ohio Street Baptist Church last night. be. ns, conducted by Rev. Vermillion, several asked prayer and five confessed to Christ.
 Rev. Nermillion took for the theme Peters Great Confession. In the eminent Twentieth Century statesHIan. on being asked what was the great est criticism he could make upon the pulpit of the present day, replied chat they lack courage to denounce fear lessly sin in political affairs and ill public places. He said Peters con- fession was true, as given, though # required great courage on his part to make it. Rev. Vermillion ci:ed many scriptures to show that Jesus was the son of man, the son of Col and that he was the Christ that h4 took upon himself sins and bore them away as did the scapegoat of Israel; that he has made atonement for tie sins of his people with his own blood. being represented by the other Scat which was slain and the blood of which was spilled to save Israel fiam death; that he is the High Priest to stand between his people and GoJ, if they will only believe him and accept him
 Rev. Vermillion urged sinners tn let Christ take upon himself their sins, to accept his sacrifice for them and to trust this mediator between God and man.

ELECTRICITY IMPRISONED

Electric vehicles of all kinds are
driven by electricity, which has been
captured and imprisoned. Batteries
which produce electricity by primary
chemical action cannot be made large
enough, with the small amount of
space available, to drive electric We.
hicles, so the truck, runabout or cab
is run into the garage where enough
electricity to propel the motor for ff-
ty to one hundred miles is taken off
the wire and imprisoned in a little
box until it is wanted to do the work.
Familiar as everyone is with the
electric motor and the electric vehi-
Gle, for this style of power driven
wagon is fast supplanting the horse
in the city streets, very few people
know the secret of the storage bat
terry.
A storage battery does not store
electricity, as many believe, but it
does store energy by converting the
energy of the electric current into
cemical potential energy, which may
be reconverted into kinetic or moving
energy.
Storage batteries, or accumulators,
depend upon secondary chemical &C
ton for their operation. They consist
of certain materials so arranged that,
when a current of electricity is PASS
ed through them, they undergo GER
tain chemical changes due to the cur
rent; and, if afterward connected to
a closed circuit, will discharge a cur
rent nearly equal to the original
charge.
The material from which storage
battery plates are made depends
largely upon the use to which they
are to be adapted. Batteries are row
being manufactured with plates made
of iron and nickel, lead and zinc, and
lead and lead. For engineering pur-
poses, however, the lead and lead cell
is used almost exclusively.
In batteries of this class the mega
tive plates are made of sponge lead,
which has light gray color and is
very soft. TIE positive plates are of
peroxide of lead, being dull chocolate
in color and hard in texture.
The eiectrolyte, or chemical, al
most universally adopted for storage
batteries is diluted sulphuric acid,
made from pure sulphur When full
ly charged, the plates are pure lead
for the negative and peroxide of lead
for the positive. These have formed
upon their surfaces during their nor
NAL discharge, very slight coating
of lead sulphate. Upon recharging,
the sulphate upon the plates combines
with the acid and ASSOCIATED gases,
with the result that the positive plate
again becomes peroxide of lead, and
the negative plate pure sponge lead.
Thus it is seen that when the hat
terry is being charged the chemical
formation of the cells is changed.
When the circuit is opened and the
power turned on the chemicals work
to regain their former state, and this
work produces nearly as much cleo
tricity as it took to perform the
change. This electricity is used to
turn the wheels of the truck, run
about or cab
Storage batteries are also extensive
ly used In plants furnishing current
for lighting and power Durposes-to
helpOut when the load is heavy and to
be charged when the load is light.

startling the supposed widow that she
fled from him and fell, fracturing her
skull. Believing that the shock had
killed her, Vulowsky then attempted
suicide. Both husband and wife are
now in the Hahnemann hospital in a
critical condition.
Three years ago Vulowsky disap-
peared from his home, and later word
was brought to his wife that he was
dead. Since that time the widow, who
is now Sc years old, has earned her
own living and was working in her
tiny kitchen today when the door
opened and Vulowsky came in.-

over and over: 'No. no! God have

Her fright startled the man, who
sprang towards her, crying out:
Katie, don't you know me? It's me,
John"
But the woman. screaming, fled into
the back yard. AS she ran down the
steps she tripped and fell, fracturine
her skull.

Her husband rushed to her side, and
finding his. attempts to revive her un-

To the doctors. Vulowsky is said
to have admitted that he had deserted
his wife three years ago, saying that
he was filled with wanderlust and
had set out on tour of the country.
For long time, however, he says he
has been homesick. and finally feeling
that perhaps his wife would forgive
him because it is near Christmas. he
came back.
