that John D. wronged him and he

Frank and John D. met, buried the

full Italian lake, the body afterward
being found in a trunk in the lake.
The murderer fed to America and was
arrested on arrival Then arose the
question of his punishment. Italy hav-
ing refused to extradite several of her
subjects who had committed murder
in the United States and escaped to
the mother country, the Washington
government declined to send Charlton
back to Italy for trial. As the crime
was committed abroad, Charlton
could not be tried here. 1t Is this mis-
carriage Of Justice that Capt Scott has
fought against.
Capt Scott has. very fine army
record. He was one Of the four army
officers sent to the city Of San Fran
cisco at the time of the earthquake
and he worked there so successfully
in an effort to bring order out of chaos
that he earned the commentator OF
all those who were actively interested
In the work Of rescue and reorganiza-
ton. He has great many letters from
San Franciscans praising his work and
thanking him.
An interesting story concerning the
bravery Of Capt Scott has just come
to light Some years ago the news
papers were full Of the story of an
explosion at Lafayette Island, New
York, and. the killing Of seven men.

his days were as the days of the ac-

Ardea had gone back to Carroll the
Saturday before New Years and there
was no one to talk to. But for that

POWER or THE IMAGINATION.

u,u.trated to Mr.. DtlltODs ~ HIS
Experienee with Thermoneter.
~ don't know when I've been so put
nut by little thing" said Mr.. Bill
tops. according to the New York Sun.
"as I was by the discovery that my.
thermometer was four degrees wrong;
# gave me a real hard little Jolt for
one thing, and then it made me real
ize that for two years had been max
ing myself uncomfortable over moth
ing.
..Out Of doors can stand the cold
as we'll as anybody; but indoors I like
to be warm; 70 is about what suits
me in the house.
1.-TWO years ago bought new Their
mometer, which i hung up in my room,
and haven't been warm there in win
ter since.
Other parts Of the house seemed
all right; in the parlor and in the din
ing room they got it up to q appar-
emily without any trouble, but in my
room it never seemed to get above 63.
I didn't shiver, but never could get
really warm, and one day I said to
Mrs. Billtops:
Elizabeth, why can't we get the
heat up in my room? Why should my
room be the only cold room in the
house?
Mrs. Billtops comes in and stands
around minute and then she says:
Why, Ezra, it's just as warm here
as it is anywhere else'
NONSENSE says to her. Look
at that thermometer! It's only 6S
here and it's 72 this minute in the
parlor.'
But Mrs. Billions insisted that 1t
was as warm in my room as it was
anywhere else, and she said that prob
ably the trouble was with my Their
mometer: that my thermometer didn't
mark correctly, and said it did, and
I'd show her conclusively that the
thermometer was all right, I'd prove
to her that my room was cold. I'd
put my thermometer right alongside
the one in the parlor and she'd see it
go up in no time to r.
$50 we put it out there, but 1t didn't
budge-that Is, upward-but it did GO
down one degree. Standing side by
side with the parlor thermometer
marking u, mine went down to 81;
they were degrees apart.
THE temperature in the parlor, &C.
tually one degree colder than in my
own room, had been entirely agreeable
to me, while in my room, though ii
was actually warmer, ] had, misled by
my thermometer, never been able to
get thoroughly and comfortably warm.

ErrIi.h Names for Towns.

Many names OF towns in England
have been appropriated for a similar
use in this country. These names fire.
quently indicate in themselves the orr
gin Of the towns. For instance, names
ending in chester" or 'cester'' or
caster" such as Dorchester. Worces-
ter and Lancaster, undoubtedly apply
to sites OF old military settlements or
camps, and the termination is derived
from "castra," the Latin word for
camp. II the name Of a place ends in
''coln," like Lincoln, then 1t, too, is OF
Roman origin. because the Latin word

BILE "by'' ends the word. like Rugby.

CHAPTER XII.

CHAPTER XII
It was until late in the afternoon of
Christmas Day that Ardea was able to
slip away from her guests long enough
to run over to apprise herself of the
condition of things at the Gordon
house.
Tom opened the door for her, and he
made her come to the fire before he
would answer her questions. Even
then he sat glowering at the cheerful
blaze as if he had forgotten her pres
ence; and she was womanly enough,
or amiable enough, to let him take his
own time. When he began, it was
seemingly at great distance from
matters present and pressing.
Say, Ardea; do you believe in mir
acles 2" he asked abruptly. How do
you account for them. Did God make
His laws SO that. they could be taken
apart and put together again when
some little human ant loses its way on
grass stalk or drops its grain Of
sugar."
Il don't know" she confessed, frank
ly. Il am not sure that / ever tried to
account for them; I suppose have
swallowed them whole, as you say
have swallowed my religion
well, you believe in them, anyway
he said, "and that makes it easier to
hit what I'm aiming at. Do you reck-
on they stopped short in the Apostles

She is just the same; lying there 30
still that you have to look close to see
whether she is breathing. The doctor
says that If there isn't change pretty
soon, she'll die"
20 Toni
He looked up at her with the old
boyish frown pulling his eyebrows to-
gether.
She's been good to God all her life;
what do you reckon He's letting her die
this way for?"
1t was terrible question, made more
terrible by the savage hardihood that
lay behind it. Ardea could not reason
with him; and she felt intuitively that
at this crisis only reason would appeal
to him. Yet she could not turn him
away empty handed in his hour of
need
"How can we tell?" she said, and
there were tears in her voice. I'VE only
know that He does everything for the
best"
II wish you'd ask Him to let my
mother live!" he said, brokenly. I've
tried and tried, and the words just die
in my mouth"
There is Mother of Sorrows in ev-
cry womanly heart, to whom the ap-
peal of the stricken is never made in
vain. Ardea saw only a boy brother
crying out in his pain, and she dropped
on her knees and put her arms around
his neck and wept over him in pure
transport of sisterly sympathy.
Indeed and indeed l will help. Tom!
And you mustn't let it drive you out
into the dark You poor boy! know
just how it hurts, and I'm so sorry for
you!"
He freed himself gently from the
comforting arms, got up rather un-
steadily, and lifted her to her feet.
Then the manly bigness of him sent
the hot blood to her cheeks and she
was ashamed.
20 Toni" she faltered; what must
you think of mel"
It think God made you-and that
was one time when His hand didn't
tremble," he said, gravely.
They had picked their way down the
leaf slippery mountain side and he
was giving her the bunch of holly at
the Dabney orchard gate before he
spoke again. But at the moment OF
leave-taking he said:
How did you know what l needed
more than anything else in all the
world, Ardea?"
She blushed painfully and the blue
eyes were downcast.
You must never speak Of that again.
I didn't stop to think. It's Dabney
falling, I'm afraid-to do things first
and consider them afterward. 1t was
as if we were little again, and you had
fallen down and hurt yourself"
Il know" he acquiesced, with the
same manly gentleness that had made
her ashamed. II won't speak Of it any
more-and I'll never forget it the long
est day live. Good-by."
And he went the back way to his
own orchard gate, plunging through the
leaf beds with his head down and his
hands in his pockets, struggling as he
could to stem the swift current which
was whirling him out beyond all the
old landmarks. For now he was made
to know that boyhood was gone, and
youth was going, and for one intoxi-
eating moment he had looked over the
mountain top into the Promised Land
of manhood.
