ooh, do not know! l am afraid he
will not"
II do not think have ever hesitated
before at any call of this kind; nor at
what such call will probably some
time mean; but this man have
known since We were boys"
IF had never seen him!'
THAT brings up another point that
has been worrying me all day. 1
could not help knowing what you have
had to go through in this country. It
is tough country for any woman.
Your people and mine were always
close together and l have felt bound
to do what could to-"
Don't be afraid to say it-make my
path easier
Something like that, though there's
been little real doing. What this stu
alton in which Sinclair is now placed
may still mean to you I do not know,
but would not add straw to the
weight of your troubles. I came to-
night to ask q plain question. If he
doesn't leave the country have got
to meet him. You know what, in all
human probability, that will mean.
From such meeting only one of us
can come back. Which shall it be?"'
I'm afraid don't understand you
do you ask me this question? How
can know which it shall be? What
As it you mean?"
Il mean I will not take his life in a
dght-if 1t comes to that-if you
would rather he should come back"
A sob almost refused an answer to
him. How can you ask me so ter
irible question:"
1T Is a question that means a good
deal to me, of course, and I don't
know Just what 1t means to you; that

have no choice in the matter, but 1
must decide what to try to do If
have one. Am to remember first
that he Is your husband?"
There was a silence. What shall 1
say-what can / say? God help me,
how am to answer a question like
that7"
"How am to answer it?"
Her voice was low and pitiful when
her answer came: "You must do your
duty"
What IL my duty, then? To serve
the paper that has been given to
me, j know-but not necessarily to de-
fend my life at the price of his. The
play of a chance lies in deciding that;
can keep the chance or give 1t away;
that is for you to say. Or take the
question of duty again. You are alone
and your friends are few. Haven't /
any duty toward you, perhaps? 1

only the duty Of servant. If go,

nothing except taking one name of
the pay roll and putting another on.
Whatever he may have done, this
man is your husband; II his death

TREASURE HIDDEN IN EARTH.
Priceless Relics So Concealed Must
Some Day Be Restored to
the Light Of Day.

The actual prosaic instances Of
treasure trove and the Old World
ceremonial involving ''crowner's quest
law" to decide the legal rights are
to be found in any text book on the
subject. More interesting, with GER
tain fascination Of romance, is the re-
Election that even in our own country,
there are probably numerous buried
boards, says the London Chronicle.
One cannot always ignore tradition,
and throughout the length and
breadth of the land are to be found
old legends of hidden treasure, some
times guarded by curse, sometimes
by special warder. There is prob.
ability almost amounting to certainty
that valuables were hidden by the
Romans, and even more probably by
the Romano Britons. The treasures
OF the Incas and of pirates such as
Kidd are still existent in theory; the
buried wealth of India is among the
rudimentary facts known to all stu.
dents of the east.
But perhaps most startling and al
Turing Of all is the theory that among
the treasure trove to be at some time
recovered from Persian sands or ruins
are the Sacred Breastplate and the
mysterious Trim and Thummim of the
Jewish priesthood.
