She was dumb, stupefied with mis-
cry.
He turned upon her sharply.
"Well?"
Her lips moved in soundless assent
lips as pallid and bloodless as the
wan young face beneath the small
inconspicuous hat.
The man grunted impatiently; yet
was satisfied, knowing that he had
her now completely under control; a
condition not hard to bring about in a
woman who, like this, was worn out
with physical fatigue and overwrought
with nervous strain. The conditions
had been favorable, the result was
pre-eminently comfortable. She would
give him no more trouble.
The hanson swerved suddenly
across the car-tracks and pulled up at
the curb. Anisty rose with an eX
clamation of relief and climbed down
to the sidewalk, turning and extending
a hand to assist the girl.

We've no time to waste"
For an instant only she harbored a
fugitive thought of resistance; then
his eyes met hers and held them, and
her mind seemed to go blank under his
steadfast and domineering regard

between closed teeth.
She had barely time to remark the
towering white facade OF upper Broad

of the building.
The marble slabs of the vestibule

as if slumbering in utter WEAKNESS

Waterman rose, rubbing his eyes and
yawning, to face them.

THE PROLIFIC QUEEN BEE

The queen bee is a great antagon.
list of race suicide. She strives to
perpetuate the race with an ardor and
an understanding that is worthy of the
highest commentator. Some have
been known to lay 1000 eggs day for
year, the number lessening after
that to 1000 and going forward at
that ratio for another two years.
With $4,000 bees to the colony that
single praiseworthy queen laid enough
eggs to establish 46 colonies. Bee
keepers figures on net income Of
three dollars a colony each year. If
the owners of the bee under discus
sion profited from her labors to that
extent the gain was $14s. 1t is not
to be presumed that any such results

The Renaissance.

The word renaissance" has in re
cent years acquired a more extended
significance than that which is implied
in our English equivalent, the revival
of learning" BY the term is now
meant the whole transition from the
middle ages to the modern world. AL
though it is possible to assign certain
limits to the period, we cannot figure
on any date so positively as to say
between this year and that the move
ment was accomplished.

CHAPTER XIV.
Retribution.

She sank back, speechless. Anisty
glanced her up and down without
visible emotion, then laughed I'M
pleasantly-the hard and unyielding
laugh of brute man brutishly impas-
stoned.

senting. Yes"
You're dead right, little woman.
Got you. Um-mmm."
She made no reply; she could have
made none aside from raising an out
cry, although now she was regaining
something of her shattered poise, and
with it the ability to accept the situa-
ton quietly, for little time (she
could not guess how long she could
endure the strain), pending an oppor-
tunity to turn the tables on this, her
prosecutor.
What is it," she said presently,
with some effort-"what is 1t you
wish with me?"

smile.
You will not tell me?"
