ndQ III us intensity something that
was almost painful.
You go to China shortly, be-
/ lieve?" she stammered, in the effort
to make conversation.
Very soon," he answered, quietly.
my work will lie there. 1t is, l
heard. most interesting country"
She was startled as she realized
his lack of recollection. True, her
father had told her of it, but to gath
er it from the mans own lips gave
her a shock. 1t seemed to her that
he must have spoken in much the
| same way four years ago, when he
| first went out.
You are interested in the work."
she asked. after a pause.
Every much" he answered. ut
has been my life's aim"
That was all that passed between
| and she moved away. He stood look
| ing after her.
"She is very beautiful" he unused;
strangely beautiful. She is like
some one. l wonder" He broke
off and passed his hand across his
forehead with a gesture of pain.
Edith, too, was thoughtful.
This is the man who is to be my
husband" she kept saying to herself
THAT is the man who is to be my
| husband"
There was only vague wonder
within her at the knowledge; no
doubt at all.
When at length the marriage was
| arranged 1t was not without consid-
cradle opposition on the part of the
| Vicar. Greatly as he admired the
missionary's character. he looked
upon his loss of memory as mental
weakness, and could not consider him
desirable husband for his daughter.
Moreover. Mr.. Lyall was fully deter
mined to go to China, and Edith not
only accepted his determination, but
| even sustained him in it. In the end
her quiet persistence won it's way,
and her father gave in at last and re-
signed himself to the loss of her. On
the day of the wedding he himself
| performed the ceremony, saw the
newly married pair drive away, and
| then shut himself in his study to
pore over books he could hardly see
for the tears that gathered in his
eyes.
Edith was quietly happy. She had
learned from her husband something
of his missionary zeal, and looked be-
yond the happiness of the early
months of marriage to the work they
were to accomplish together. Not
until they had started on their voy-
age to the East did she begin to real
lie the mere pleasures of living. Then
the world in its mystery and beauty
took hold of her. She saw it unroll
before her as map. The hot sands
Of Port Said, the long blue levels OF
the Indian Ocean, the vivid green OF
Singapore, became all constituent
parts of one glorious whole. The
evenings spent under awnings In
calm seas, listening to the throbbine
OF the screw, were so many hours Of
placid happiness. hours to be stored
in the mind as precious memories
1t was with half sigh of regret that
she reached Shanghai at last, and
putting aside those memories, faced
| the future that lay before her.

Cement Age. .
It was decreed by the convention
of 1913 and the Treaty OF Washing
ton of 1916 that the boundary be-
tween the United States and Canada
from the Lake of the Woods to the
Pacific-a distance of 1870 miles
should be the forty-ninth parallel.
The surveyors who have lately COM
pleted the location of the boundary
have found that the astronomical par
allel varies from direct circle
around the earth, and Professor
Otto Klotz explains the curious fact
that the line, instead OF being
straight, is at one point eight hun
dred feet south of the direct circle
and at another place six hundred feet
north. 1t was decided that the astro-
nomical parallel-or line through
places where the pole is forty-one de-
grees from the zenith-should be the
accepted boundary. This decision
was followed, but local attraction in
some places defects the plumb line
and therefore the zenith, and the as
Economical forty-ninth parallel proves
to be a quite irregular line.

BARONESS IN PooRHoUsE.
TSpecial to The Sentinel. I

Pittsburg, Pa, May Baroness
L. F. Lagerfelt. who in her youth
was universally admired at ''the
lovely Mollie Doty," of Steubens
vile, o.. whose father, Calvin b.
Doty, was one of the wealthiest men
of this section, has been admitted to
the poorhouse at Aitenheim. w. Va,
at her own request. Az.
Miss Doty married Baron l.. Fred
erick Lagerfelt, scion of fine old no.
BILE Swedish family, vice consul of
Sweden here, in st. Paul's church,
Steubenville, December IL, 1884. and
thereby broke the hearts of many
American suitors.
Five years afterward Baron Lager
felt disappeared; an migrate to his
generous father-in-law. and worse, 1t
is alleged, a forger. Three years
later his broken-hearted wife di-
vorced him.
1t is not known how the baroness
exhausted her resources. She spent
her last penny three weeks ago.
Friends OF her youth found her
starving in wretched room on Re-
becca street. North side. here. Proud
till, in her misfortunes. she refused
to occupy the quarters they provided
! for her or the money they offered her,
and applied for admission to the
| almshouse.
Mollie Doty was as vivacious and
kind-hearted as lovely. In society
she was at the front; no entertain-
ment was complete without her.
| Her wedding was as gay as fash
ionable; the best people of Pittsburg'
Steubenville. Philadelphia and Gin
cinnati were guests. The bridal
| presents were superb. From Stock
holm came this telegram:
ITO Baron and Baroness Lagerfelt:
''God bless you my children. From
your loving parents, brothers. sisters
grandmothers and uncles.
''LAGERFELT."
CALVIN w. Doty was the largest
stockholder in the Jefferson Iror
Works and large stockholder in ths
La Belle furnaces at Wheeling. w
Va. After his marriage Baron Lag
erfelt devoted himself entirely to his
father-in-law's business, and Mr.
Doty had him elected vice president
of the Jefferson Iron Works. Lager
felt vanished. then il was discovered
4 so it was alleged, that he had forged
the names OF the president and sec
retary of the company to blocks o.
stock on which he had borrowed larg'
sums from banks and individuals.
