thrown back and upward, as if spent
and exhausted even with the brier
effort he had made And finally, fair
ly doubling on his tracks, he came
headed straight for the rock at the
summit of which Vaughan stood.
Nearer and nearer he came, and then,
quickly, as in the faint moonlight the
mans face became more plain
ly visible, Vaughan drew one in
stant gasping breath of sick
as if rigid with agony, the eyes
were unnaturally wide, and over the
upturned forehead and the pallid cheeks
flowed something hideously dark and
glistening. And then, convulsively,
with a CHASTITY semblance of an athlete
who finishes his race, the figure threw
one arm high into the air, as If grasp
ing for support, staggered, pitched for
ward, and fell motionless, lying, in the
darkness below, huddled heap in the
road
To Vaughan, all unschooled in the
darker experiences of life, came a sud
den access of blind terror He knew
that he should at once descend, yet,
knowing it, stood motionless, his Will
unequal to the task. And then, as he
sought to nerve himself for the trial,
nature intervened. At once he was
conscious that his heart was throb-
bling so family and so fast that his
ear could scarcely separate the beats;
something tightened in his throat; the
silver birches floated and turned before
him, and he found himself nearer faint
ing than he had ever been in his life
before. Slowly, after what seemed to
him an indefinite period of semi-con-
sciousness, his brain again cleared;
distrustingly he loosed his hold on the
sapling which he had grasped. and
with genuine courage sought once more
to approach the edge of the little cliff
and begin his descent.
Yet that descent, spite of his newly
taken resolution, was now never to be
made. At the edge he gave one shud-
dering look below, then hastily and
with caution drew back, peering fixedly
through the screen of leaf and branch.
The man, indeed, still lay where he
had fallen, but now, creeping down the
driveway, came the first figure, return
ing, as if impelled by some impulse too
powerful to resist. Stealthily it ap-
preached the huddled figure on the
ground looked around listening, then
swiftly knelt, turned the body over, ami
raised the head upon it's knee. Then
came the quick squirt of a match, and
Vaughan, leaning forward with fasci-
mated gaze, saw more than he wished

1continned From Yesterday,

Something singular there seemed to
him about the whole affair The cottage
he could not place; and idly he began
to wonder whether intent upon his
day dreams, he had wandered farther
than he had intended, and had crossed
the boundaries of The Birches to
trespass on some neighboring domain.
His vivid ina gination had even begun
to weave a web of vague, elusive ro-
nance about the cottage itself, based
partly, perhaps, on the spell of the
moonlight, partly on the fact that
despite the lateness of the hour a light
still cleaned in the upper. and one in
the lower hall. And then, with a real
izing rush of sober common sense,
with smile at his wandering
fancies, he cape back to real life
again, and had urned. though half
regretfully, to go, when suddenly, at
the very instant, he stopped, and again
stood still. A dark figure had come
across the lawn in the rear Of the house,
walked up to the door without recon-
noitering and disappeared within.
A moment or two of silence. Then
the light downstairs was extinguished,
and an instant later the one above
was suddenly darkened, until only the
faintest glimmer remained. And again
Vaughan though half doubtfully this
time, smiled at his folly. Surely this
was the novelist at his worst. Striving
to find something unusual and strange,
worthy of his notice and comment, IN
what? In the coming home of some
prosaic householder, doubtless tempted
into longer stay than usual at the
village by the charms of the good fell
lowship of tavern or grocery store.
Suddenly his heart leaped, What was
that? Something mysterious was on
foot, then, after all. From within the
house came sounds as If of a struggle
"a crash as of furniture overturned
single half-choked, muffled cry. Then
rush and clatter of feet on the stairs,
and then, before his wide-open, strain
ing eyes, from the rear door of the
house a figure emerged, followed al
most instantly by another. The pur-
sued, the taller and simmer of the
two, and evidently by far the fleeter
of foot, ran, as one who knows his
ground, straight for the thickest clus-
ter of trees, and reaching them, dived
into their shelter like a hare The pur-
suer, following for a space, all at once
slackened his speed swerving and
bearing aimlessly away, constantly far
ther and farther to the left, in wide
half-circle, his body bent all the time
more and more to one side, his head

THE GERMAN GIRLS CHEST.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

All American girls know about the
"dower chest" which they begin to fill
as soon as they become engaged, but
the German maid takes marriage as a
more certain fact of her life, and be-
gins to stock her hope chest" long be-
fore she is matrimonially on the mar
ket. She Is imbued with a sense of
thrift and also with an ambition to
have a larger dowry than her mother
had. Often the German girl begins to
collect things when she enters her
teens. Silently she saves her money to
use in buying articles for her chest.
With skill she embroiders her initials
on each article of linen. Thus by the
time she is engaged to be married she
is thoroughly equipped with hundreds
of little articles that are useful in
housekeeping.

CHAPTER XII.
The Yellow streak.

"A plague on all towards. say
Shakespeare.
EROM a slumber that was scarcely a
sleep, a slumber feverish and fit
full, broken by restless starts and
uneasy twitchings, Arthur Vaughan
suddenly opened his eyes, on the instant
broad awake. For just one blank mo-
ment, as has happened with mankind
so many million times before, as will
happen so many million times again,
his brain seemed to hang motionless.
without impression of any sort; and the
next minute across it the blurred and
distorted images of the night before
were rushing and crowding their way
with a sense almost of physical suffoca-
tion and terror. He had half started
from his bed, when at the same moment
the knock on the door which had first
awakened his was repeated. Come in,'
he called, and at the word the door
opened, and Henry Carleton's valet
softly entered and began to pull back
the curtains. For a moment Vaghan
lay motionless, watching the man. and
wondering instinctlvely if he knew:
then, trying hard to speak in tone
casual and off-hand, he greeted him.
Good morning, Rollins
Swiftly and silently the man turned.
His face, to Vaughan's relief appeared
perfectly impassive. Good morning,
sir" he returned respectfully. "a fine
morning out, sir" and then, after a
hardly perceptible pause-Vaughan
could almost feel the words coming
There was bad doings last night, SIR"
Vaughan had risen. and was slowly
crossing the room toward his bath. He
stopped abruptly. And what was that,
Rollins?" he asked.

THE AEROPLANE GIRL.

She has stolen the blue
OF the clear summer skies
And the light of the stars,
For her beautiful eyes;
And dressed In brown leather,
In clear, sunny weather,
Through infinite spaces
She circles the skies.
She has tucked out of sight
Every ribbon and curl,
With a smile all a-daZzle
OF ruby and pearl;
She races to swallow,
And dares us to follow,
The fearless and frolicsome
Aeroplane girl.
