l obeyed, in kind of stupor, and
presently Burnside was sitting up on
the opposite seah rubbing his brow in
a dazed manner.
Are you all right, Barker?" said
the bearded man, still keeping the
revolver pointed at me.
oh! you've come, Burt said
Burnside, recovering his senses.
Have they got clean away"
"WS've nabbed one of them; but
not the one we want"
Good" said Burnside, turning to
look at me. "How did the other man
age to bolt?"

absence. However, 1 thought you'd
turn up presently, so l followed him
when he left the carriage. The beg
gar went to the booking-office and
took a ticket fo,' Glasgow. Then
kept my eyes skinned, for I knew
that something had gone wrong. He
hurried back to the carriage, and our
friend here then left him. l didn't
bother about him, though. thinking
he was an ordinary passenger; and as
our man commenced to pace up and
down, l waited over at the bookstall
to see what would happen. AS you
hadn't turned up, l knew he had
managed to play some trick on you,
and l determined not to let him out
of my sight. Then the bell rang,
and in he jumped, closing the door
behind him. l waited half a second

then 1 made a rush and followed my
man. But the beggar had gone!"
Through the other door?"
"Yes. was too late to follow him,
and then, just as spotted you under
the seat, and tumbled to the whole
plant, in comes our friend here and
delivers himself up like lamb"
BY this time l had begun to see
that there was mistake somewhere,
and that was in very awkward pre-
dicament. l turned hot all over and
a funny feeling crept down my spine.
Gentlemen" said I, "I'm afraid
there's been terrible mistake"

Just as the train flew through the

Burnside's hands, just as he was

the detectives handkerchief, from
which came strong, sickly odor.
He struggled frightfully for moment
or two and then seemed to collapse.
Its all right now," said the de-
tective, but he very nearly had me
plugged. Faugh! Open the windows,
quick, or We'll be succumbing to the
chloroform ourselves"
l lowered the windows, and none
too soon, for already the drug was
beginning to make my head swim.
The detective, meanwhile, was secur-
ing Burnside's hands and feet with a
couple of stout rug straps.
That's all right" he said, when
he had finished. You nabbed his

Make Home Happy.

Make the home life as happy as
you can for the children Many a
boy goes astray, not through lack of
care and training, but because home
life is not made as happy as it might
be. Children, while they are young
and impressionable, should be sur
rounded with happiness. 1t is as es-
sential to their well being as sunshine
is to flowers. If. as they grow up,
they find that happiness is not to be
had at home, they soon learn to look
for it elsewhere. e.--Indianapolis News.

"I'll see to that" he said; "and
now, help me to place our worthy
friend under the seat"
We lifted Burnside with some diff

hanging curtains, placing his head
against the detectives black bag.

"but his arm shows trifie, so I'll
place the foot-warmers in front.

Now that the crisis had passed, l
began to grow cheerfully interested
in the affair, and looked forward with
eagerness to the second act in the
little drama which was being played
before our eyes.
Sure enough, when the train slowed
UP at Crewe, there was a tall, heavily
beared man standing on the platform
inspecting the numbers on the car
riages.
"You wait here while I get the
guard to put reserved label on this
compartment. We don't want the
beggar in here if we can help it,"

fearing he might return and subject

so that the view under the seat was
completely blocked.
Presently a porter came and

Bear Our SORROWS.

BY preference we would bear all
our sorrows alone, fight out all the
hardest fights of heart and soul where
no one can pity us, or, with any well
meant attempt at healing, poke their
fingers into our sorest place; like
Jacob, we would wrestle with God in
the darkness and solitude of our own
chamber. But when we are happy it
is different; something must be want
ing unless there is one near to us who
understands and ishappy, too.-Wom-

The Pleated FrilI.

We have indeed returned to the
days of the pleated frill. Nearly
every blouse of the chic Parisienne is
finished at the wrists with frills so
deep that only the rosy tips of the
fingers peep out from under them;
and, II the opening in front is not
concealed by jabot, then a similar
pleating must be worn down the
front facing towards the left. The
pieatings are made of the same ma
terial as the blouse itself.
