Since Ursinus and the University Of

ponents. the real effects Of football re-
form will not be much better known

states that no one viii be sure OF new

doubtful if Pennsylvania Will show any
of Coach Smiths pet tricks in a practice

Grams and was strong last year Ursinus

There. the chances are. some idea OF
what the game is TO be like will be
shown. Glenn Warner, wonder at
adapting himself to circumstances and
genius at evolving intricate formations,
always has made a practice Of getting
his teams worked up 10 top speed early
in the season.
II is certain that he has already given
his cOpper-colored charges a mighty clear
idea of just what IS permissible under
the new regulations. He has a team,
too. that is exceptionally light. Not one
of his regulars weighs over 175 pounds.
All of them are fast
Under these circumstances other coach
es look for a game in which the Indians
will make use of all their speed. villa
nova, in the past few years, has made
such a record on the gridiron that the
Indians could hardly have picked a bet
ter opponent on which TO try out their
game.

 T would stay gladly" returned the other. "if thought that were wei come. but know that cannot be-"
 T will wait." said the woman. ''Good-byel"
 She extended her hand to him. He seized it in his own trembling grasp and kissed it. He remained mo- ment with his lips pressed to her hand and she laid hor other hand upon his pended head. He heard her lips mur- muring words of prayer. He released her hand, stopped lower. laid some thing at her feet turned and reso- lutely marched out into the sunlight.
 The woman lifted her hand, the hand he had kissed. It was wet with tears. The man had left her with a breaking heart. She sat down upon the sand to think her thoughts during her two hours wait. Her bare foot touched something metallic. She bent over and picked it up It was his watch. He had placed it there. The simple kindness, tho spontaneous gen. erosity of the little action moved her as had not all his pleas, and she min. gled her own tears with his upon her hand.
 She looked at the watch after while and found that more than two hours had elapsed. nearly three The latter part of the time had fled swiftly in thoughts of him. She was hungry and thirsty, too. It was noon. She went out on the sands. The yacht was nowhere to be seen. She could not have gotten below the hori- zon. She divined that he had sailed around the island and away in that direction
 2 There was a pile of boxes and things on the sand above the high water mark. She stepped toward 1t and opened one of the sea chests. It was filled with books and papers, a strange collection He had ransacked the yacht for her. Another chest con- tained provisions with which she had long been unfamiliar. There were toi let articles. pieces of cloth. writing paper, pencils, heaping profusion of all that he fancied she might need, that might afford solace and compan ionship to her and alleviate the lonelt ness of those hours. In her heart she thanked him. and lifting up her hands, she blessed him again. He had made life possible and tolerable to her. She could write, she could read. she could sew. And all this while she could hope and dream.

With quick, sudden movement she caught his arms with her free hands and literally tore them apart. To her 1.-the and vigorous body she added spirit and determination which made her indeed more than match for the slender, somewhat broken man before her.
 You see." she cried. She stood be- tween him and the doorway, one hand outstretched, the fingers open. q could kill you before you left this cave. You told me that you had sent your men back to the ship and that you were alone upon the island. and I could hide where I hid before and they would find your dead body here upon the sands. That would be all"

 In Ills Heart.
 His uncle's management had been wfse and prudent he had spent little and had saved much, so that Charnock found himself the posseseor of vast riches in the form of available capital.
 Among the first things he learned was the power of money. Had he not been steadied by the memory of the woman, he would probably have learned it to his sorrow. As 1t was, he was almost miserly He spent little up- on himself. His wants were astonish- lngly few and contact with the world did mot develop extravagant ideas. Those were things which he was too old to learn, against which he had been anchored He was saving what he had and what he could get for some great purpose. a purpose of help, of assistance In which he could com memorate her name, for which future generations should rise up and call her blessed.
 He had long talks with his uncle about 1t. The old man would fain have had his nephew marry and carry on the ancient line Delicately, ten aerly, he preached the subject after a time, but the suggestion met with ab- solute refusal. Women interested Charnock as men did Indeed his in- terest in his kind was intense The intellectual stimulus of conversations with bright, intelligent people Was the most entrancing result of his contact with the world zut none of them touched his heart That was buried on that gemlike island in the far off sea.
 He was man of unusual force of character, prompt and unyielding de- cision. His uncle had not lived his ong life without being able to esti mate men. He recognized very early In the undertaking the futilfty of ar gument, and though he tried finesse in the presence of the wittiest, the ciev crest, and most beautiful women of Virginia and elsewhere. for the two travelled throughout the United States, welcomed everywhere, his ef- forts were unavailing. There was more than one woman who would have been glad to accept the mans suit; whom, if he had wooed ever so slightly he could have won. but he was friendly with everyone and in love with none.
 At the end of two years society gave him up as confirmed in his isolation and loneliness. He was not the less welcome, but he was no longer a matrimonial possibility. nor was he any more the wonder that he had been. New things engrossed public attention. The world presently took Charnock as he would fain have 1t take him. as matter of course.
 He did things slowly. not because that was his nature. but from an in- vincible determination to do things right He made his plans deliberately md had formulated an enterprise so comprehensive in It's scope, so vast In ts outlay and with such infinite possi. bilities of help to the poor, the wretched, the down-trodden classes of society, that when the foreshadowings of 1t were announced, people stood amazed. An undertaking so great was not within the power even of Char mock. His resources were utterly un- equal to 1t. but he had enough to make a magnificent beginning and by devo- ting to 1t the whole revenue of his es- tate, and the estate itself after he died, gradually the enterprise would be achieved.
