papers in her hand. as though she
would rush to him: then she caught
sight OF herself In the glass In her
nhghtdress. her disheveled hair.
She remained musing before the
glass. the papers now held to her
breast. "A hand he could love to
guide him." Mrs. Henly had said
guide him! He was her tyrant. her
master! But he would be blind. At
this thought and all that the verses
meant, written half In obscurity and
yet SO illumined-she realized by
reason OF her love more perfectly than
the man had been able to do the hor.
ror OF his destiny.
The glass reflected her serious and
lovely face. and gradually the sun
for the only time during that long
day. came out from behind the fog
as the sunrise sent one burst of bright
ness against the clear glass. II
startled her-dazzled her-full as her
eyes were Of visions. and the glorious
luminence hurt her with It's cruel
beauty.
"Oh, light for you-light for you
Basil" she breathed. "lf I could make
myself into eyes and vision and sight
to be transformed into you and 80 be
forever lost!"
Gradually the brief sunlight passed
and the melancholy aspect of the
cloudy day definitely filled the room
and the glass ceased to be enchanted
But the modern Lady of Shalot
mused:
Il saw him ride across 1t, and It did
not crack from side to side How
can there be a curse upon us?" and
she turned away to dress in the old
plain dress she wore when she first
braved the doors of Craven.

iorcib.y to her mind. With just as
hours with Tempest, with just &c
much distaste did she recall Lady Or
mond. She cried to herself:
Il must be sure indeed-very sure
he must want me very much in
deed"
After /aleepless night. she let the
following morning go by with nc
word or sign to Craven. When the
last of the interminable hours had
dragged themselves to their end Polly
Ramsdill brought her a note from
Mrs. Henly.
You cant have gone, miss. You
couldn't go. am sure. Remember
he is all alone"
With her heart on the rack, her
ward. and spirit. II unworthy. Ger.
tainly very feminine. pulling her
back to reason and to patient wait.
ing for some sign to come to her from
the master OF Craven, she let pass
three dreadful days. They marked
her life with suffering. At the third,
on its early morning. she woke to
hear horse coming up. 1t was gray
dawn. no more, hardly light. and her
window was clear of shade or blind.
Lying as she was. she could see in
the little mirror the bit of sky. the
meadow in the mists. and the road.
She saw too the rider who came at a
mad pace and drew rein-Tempest
himself. his soft hat pulled well over
his face. He spoke a second with
Mrs. Ramsdill and left a package in
her hands and. turning. rode of as
madly as ever knight could from a
belle dame sans merci. The mists
clouded the glass. and Lucy Carew
was weeping when Mrs. Ramsdill
came with the parcel for her. For a
long time she held 1t unopened, not
daring to break the envelope. She
knew that whatever the contents
might be. the rest OF life would be
for her henceforth as they should
read.
Some dozen sheets of manuscript
fell into her hands. She bent over
the difiicult handwriting-that of one
who has written in his sleep. or who
rises in the night to transcribe his
thoughts in the dark. The uncertain
aspect Of the lines moved her with a
great wave Of tenderness that car.
ried her to him like a sea, and az
she followed the wonderful words she
sat as one held In a spell-maryellinR
-confused-overwhelmed. One after
another the famous sonnets to Lucia
fell under her eyes. 1t was the con.
clusion OF the old. beautiful theme.
The series was complete-the suite
had reached at last its mature and
mellow-its perfect-conclusion.
The verses she beheld we're immor.
tal-they were luminous: In spite Of
the trembling transcription. they
shone and burned on the pages In the
girls hands. They were all for her
all for her.
She rose unsteadily with burning
cheeks and eyes that glowed through
the tears. She started sas she was to-

Feed Your Enemjes,

Lord Rosebery believed that one OF
the chief causes Of the downfall Of
Napoleon was that change of charac.
ter which resulted from over.eating,
inactivity and the fatness that came
Of his captivity on the Isle of Elba.
Napoleon was never the same man in
looks, manner or action after Elba.
II an active genius like Napoleon could
be thus overthrown. overfeeding and
fattening may be good way to get
rid Of q powerful enemy. says tho

arm did not lessen. She did not ven.

one who should make the pleas for
himself.
Miss Carew said very slowly. with
effort and In voice SO low that Mrs.
Henly could hardly hear:
III there were someone-who would
go through the world blind In his
stead-suffer In his stead-bear all
the burdens-near him Uf she might

Mrs. Henly watched fer fascinated,
a great hope dawning in her heart.
"Oh." she said. Il think he cares
for the one too much to take her
with him on his way. and SO much
that he would try to thrust her from
him and go on alone to spare her
and him loving her dearly all the
while"
The girl with an impulsive gesture
threw her arms around the old won.

She kissed the girl. pressed her hand.

nothing more to say. She felt all Of

The others face saddened at once.
Sadly sure, dearie."
"Ah. not that: I mean-about his
caring so--that he would spare her

Mrs. Henly took the slender. cold
hands between both hers:
Quite sure" she said.
When she was left alone she found
herself shut in with a new world.
So full OF bewilderment and con-
fusion of sorrow, and dawning Joy Of
doubt and love and despair. that she
pressed her hands to her heart and
prayed Heaven for strength to carry
her through and for wisdom as to

She found herself stifed with the
thoughts and doubts that rose.

Engineer o'Rourke Submits Proposi

Washington. July 25.-John F O'Rourke, a prominent engineer, who has accomplished some interesting en- gineering feats, has laid before Acting Secretary of War oliver. plans for the raising the MaiTfe The plans are based on a system of pneumatic cais- sons. No divers are used and the pom toon system is completely put aside. The method proposed is to swing the maine in the cradle of powerful cables and lift her completely out of the wa ter. where a complete inspection of the hull will be possible.
 While the ship is suspended above the water. O'ROurke declares. she can be repaired .-z readily as if in a. dry dock After being launched from the cable cradle she can leave Havana har- bor under her own steam.
 This it is said is the first plan pro posed which would present the ship to the naval board in precisely the same condition as when she was sunk on the night of February 15. 1898. O'Rourke expressed an opinion that the job could be done in three months
