turned away from the last horrors.
Two minutes later, when DR.. Duprat
! rushed in, the Baron de Heidelmann
Bruck. unafraid and unrepentant, had
gone to his last long sleep. His face
was calm, and even in death his lips
| seemed set in a mocking smile or
triumph.
And so it all ended. as the baron re-
marked, with virtue rewarded and
right triumphant over wrong. only
the doctors agreed that many a day
must pass before Coquenil could get
back to his work, if. indeed, he ever
went back to it. There were reasons
independent of NJ. Paul's health that
made this doubtful. reasons connected
with the happiness of the lovers,
for. after all. it was to Coquenil
that they owed everything; Kittredge
owed him his liberty and established
innocence. Alice Eve should say Nary
owed him her memory. her lover. and
her fortune; for. as the sole surviving
heir of her mother, the whole vast in-
hcritance came to her. And. when a
sweet young girl finds herself in such
serious debt to a mar and at the same
limo one of the richest heiresses in the
world. she naturally wishes to give
some substantial form TO her gratitude,
even to the extent of a few odd millions
from her limitless store.
An any rate. Coquenil was henceforth
far beyond any need of following his
| profession: whatever use he might in
tho future make OF his brilliant talents
would be for the sheer joy of CONQUEST
ami strictly in the spirit of art for its
own sake.
On the other hand. If at any time he
wished to undertake a case. it was GER

ernment of France would tender him

EndeayOr to Make Visit Pleasure
to Hostess as Well as
to Yourself.

a day, any more than there is when
she writes to you and ixes the length
Of your visit.
In the old times it was the custom
for people TO make one another long
visits, sometimes heightened out into
weeks and even months. Perhaps there
may yet be parts of the country in
which there is time enough for this
but as a rule our American life is toe
closely filed to permit US to be IN
DEFINITE either in the form Of our inyi-
tation Or OF suggestions OF visits.
Having settled the time and duration
Of your visit, give yourself the trouble
to bestow a little thought upon tht
sort Of visitor you intend to be.
Does this seem unnecessary? It VII
not IL you have yourself ever been az
ficted with a guest whose whole con
! sideration has apparently been the
amount of pleasure she could get out
of her residence in your home with
no thought at all Of her duty to her
hostess.
Two or three instances of this sort
Of experience come to my mind. One
of them is among my early recollec-
llDllSs was III AAAAAo "A0AA u
cousin came to stay in our tiny coun-
try house. Her prospective arrival was
announced by telegram just a few
hours before she reached the station
five miles distant to which We had to
send for all guests. Our cook was sick;
the second maid was willing, but
green and incompetent.
I have spoken Of our summer home as
tiny. So II was, a mere cottage, built
for a three months stay in hot
weather. The dining-room and parlor
were on the first floor, two fair-sized
bedrooms and two wee ones on the
second floor, an unfinished attic with
one ceiled room on the third floor. The
kitchen was in an ell. We were fve in
family and the two maids made seven.
The visiting cousin brought with her a
sick husband, five small children and
her younger brother.
During all that time my dear mother
cooked and washed dishes and made
beds and the visiting cousin never lifted
q finger to help.
On the other hand, I recollect with
equal vividness a soJourner in our home
at a period when we were well supplied
with domestic service, who insisted
upon taking a hand in every house
hold duty. She made her own bed and
put her own room to rights in the
morning; she followed my mother into
the pantry when she was making some
special delicacy for the table, and into
the kitchen when she was giving orders
for meals.
She Strengthened up the library and
drawing room and never saw anything
out of order that she did not Immediate
ly put it to rights In the way which
appealed to her as best, and, in short,
made a busybody of herself generally.
In her way she was as much of a trial
rs the indolent cousin and as hard to
endure.
So evidently, no hard and fast rule
can be made to regulate your conduct
where you are a guest. Tact is the best
guide, and when this is accompanied
with kindness and a desire to make
your visit a pleasure to your hosts, as
well as to yourself, you are not likely
to go wrong

Tact Is Best Guide to Make
Visitor Welcome Guest in Home

venient to have the nearest and dearest
come, says the writer in the Philadel-
phia Press. Suppose there is illness In
the house you contemplate visiting.
Or that the maid has left and the
family is in confusion or that another
visitor is occupying the guest chamber
and there is no place in which to tuck
a newcomer without incommoding the
rest of the family.
No, it is never safe to take chances
in such lines. 1t is little trouble to
drop a line to your proposed hostess
and ask her If 1t will suit her to receive
you at a certain day and hour. Let
her know the train by which you are
coming and state as nearly as you can
the probable length of your stay.
There is no reflection uponsher hos
