A strong compassion came into

was followed by an expression of dis
tress as he noticed that she was thin
ner and paler. The long winter was
over and spring. with its splendors of
forest bloom, had come, and Helena
sighed for the ending OF her difficult
ties. 1t seemed to her that James
Langdon's absence-he announced one
night that for business reasons he
would be absent for several weeks
had intensified them. In a short while
the pretty schoolhouse in the heart
of the mountains would be closed. The
day before Helena was to go down the
mountains the postman brought her a

Helena S Pupil



When Helena realized that a cabal
was organized against her to force her

closed her pretty teeth hard. and all
the fighting blood Of her cavalier an
cestry asserted itself in a thorough
willingness to fight 1t out to a finish.

James Langdon, who, with logged per-
severance and energy, was getting on
wonderfully.
One evening, sitting at the study
table under the bright light of swing
ing lamp, and figuring out a mathe-
NAUTICAL problem, Helena suddenly
raised her eyes to see ii her pupil was
following her explanation.
But James Langdon, his arms rest
ing on the table, was looking abstract
ed and yet with a keen though tful
scrutiny, at the bronze hair, on which
the light fell, bringing out golden
CLEANS, at the fine oval of the face
bending over the book, at its delicate,
high-bred features. and at the straight
long lashes which added so much beau
ty to The eyes now raised to his.
DO you understand how 1t Is done?"
Helena asked.
Il was not listening" Langdon an
swered, composedly. ~ was looking
at you, and wondering how much you
believe Of the things they haze told
you against me. l was wondering
whether you will give me up
''Well?" Helena asked smilingly.
well, I don't believe you will. You
are too straightforward and brave, and
too square. You don't mind fight a
bit, do you? It's In your blood"
Helena laughed and nodded.

That you should not do me the CHARITY

answered quietly, and look Of i'm

face and flush surged up to his
short brown hair.

slowly, that all your life you intend
to let the suspicion rest on you that
YOU shot and killed a man when you
could clear yourself easily by getting
A deposition from that old woman?
Do you not see how much 1t stands
against you? Do you think 1t fair to
Yourself? You must look into the
future. Can you not realize how 1t
may ruin your life?'
Il will keep my promise to that poor

Some days later 1t occurred to Lang
don that, although lacking in educa-
ton. he was owner or a prosperous
cotton mill; that he had inherited
great tracts of land. prosperous farms
and orchards, leased out and looked
after by an agent no one knowing
IN large returns. His simple. rugged
bringing up. his unacquaintance with
the advantage Of large wealth. made
him strangely indifferent to II. II was
only when he saw how tagged and
worn out Helena was by her Gnremit-

him OF what the hundreds of thou

Michael Lochschmidt, employed on
the new structure being thrown across
the Pacific street ravine, in Appleton,
fell from the top of the bridge to the
ravine below, a distance of fully sixty
feet. He was unhurt and returned to
his work as soon as physician ex-
amined him for possible internal in
juries. E. A. King, of Green Bay, en-
ployed as carpenter on the new four
story structure being erected in APP
pleton by the Marshall Paper Company,
stumbled as he approached the eleva-
tor shaft on the third floor and dash
ed head foremost into the open shaft.
At the second floor he crashed into a
scaffold, which turned his body so that
the remainder of the descent was feet

in the basement, fully seventy feet
from the third floor, and was unhurt.
He returned at once to his work.

Charles R. Wolf, piano player at the
Bijou Theater in Kenosha, is "a man
without a country on account of his
pleading guilty to perjury. The au-
thorities say that Wolf can never vote,
he can never serve upon jury and do
a dozen other things to which an
American citizen is entitled. No par
don by the courts can restore him to
citizenship as the law looks upon per-
jury as a most serious offense, par
ticularly so because it endangers the
machinery of the courts. Wolf was ar
rested on the charge of perjury in con-
nection with testimony he gave dur
ing the trial of the Annis divorce case
in Fond du Lac. He pleaded guilty to
the charge after a jury had been
drawn in his case and sentence will be
passed upon him December l. 1t is
understood that Wolf is now obtaining
affidavits of good character in an effort
to be par led by the court.
