scious of his own powers. but there was one person in whom, next to Mark. he had great confidence; that was his sister Souri. Then came the thought that if Souri were only there ''she thought do heap" This led Jakey up to the problem how to get her there. The problem was too difficult for his young brain to solve, so he got no further until circumstances came to his aid, or may he not have had the germs of reason within him to go fur ther without being definitely conscious of them?

He knew the range Sf the Confederate picket line, and vas unable to understand how this party could be a part of it. The men looked equally surprised at his appearance. Indeed they seemed more disconcerted at his sudden com ing than he was at their being there. When he made his leap among them they were about to get into the boat, and one of them held the painter in his hand Mark in a twinkling made up his mind that they were not pleased at his nppearance. He. determined to play Jold game. He had no defined plan when he began to speak to them il came to him as he proceeded.
 What are you men doing here?" he asked in Q tone that none but a sol, dier knows how to assume.
 No one answered.
 'What regiment do you belong top
 No answer.
 'Is there a noncommissioned officer among you?"
 There was so much of authority in Marks tone that it compelled an an swer. and a respectful one.
 "No, sir"
 "You men are away from your con- mands without permission. I can see that plainly"
 The men looked guilty, but said noth- hg.
 "Tou evidently don't know me. am an officer of General Bragg's staff on an important mission of secret serv- lee"
 He waited moment to discover the effect of his words and then proceed ed:

(Continued)
 Ali this occupied but a moment. Mark turned his back again and moved cautiously forward. Suddenly he trod on a rotten branch It cracked with a sound which seemed to him like the report of pistol
 Again he paused and turned. He saw the sentinel motioniess. He had slipped farther down. and his hat had fallen farther over his forehead. Thank God!
 He moved backward, bis eyes fixed on his sleeping enemy, occasionally turning to see where he stepped He was getting near to cover. In this way he passed to within a few steps of concealment. How he coveted the overhanging bank near to him. yet far enough to be useless should the senti- nel awake too soonl Cachew!
 This sound was real; it was sneeze from the picket
 Mark knew that it was a signal of awakening. He darted behind the bank and was out of sight.
 He heard the sentinel get up, shake himself. give a yawn. a grunt, as if chilled. and begin to pace his beat
 Mark moved away cautiously. a great flood of joy and thankfulness yelling up through his whole nature. After going a sufficient distance to be out of hearing. he awakened Jakey. "Jakey! Wake up!"
 The boy opened his eyes.
 Were beyond the picket" "Whar's my gun" ''Oh. blessed childhood" thought Mark, "that in moments of peril can be interested in such trifing thingsv'
 q have your gun here in my hand. It's safe. Stand on your legs. my boy. We're going on"
 Jakey stood on the ground and rub bed his eyes with his fists Once awake he was awake all over.
 They moved on down the river to- ward the base of Lookout mountain, soon leaving the river margin and striking inland behind some rising ground. Finding convenient nook in a clump of bushes wherein to leave Jakey, Mark told him to lie down and stay there while he reconnoitered to find . way to get down the river and to cross it. Mark hunted nearly all night. He could find no practicable route. He did not know how to proceed around Lookout mountain, and could find no means of crossing the Tennessee near where he was. At last, looking down from a knoll, he could see the margin of the river at a place where the bank concealed the shore between the base of the bank and the verge of the wa- ter. But what he saw especially. and which gladdened his heart, was boat moored to the shore and in 1t pair of oars.
 Going hack to the place where he had left Jakey he wakened him, ano together they returned to the knoll The boat was sdll where be had seel 1t Leading the way Mark descende, to the bank. So intent was he upon seizing the boat that he did not think to approach cautiously. He forgot that where there was a boat with oars in 1t the oarsman would likely not be far away.
 He jumped down to the. slanting ground below and landed in the midst of a party of Confederate soldiers.

NATURAL ICE
HEALTHY

The first warm days OF spring al
ways bring hurried demands from
householders for that great necessity
Of town and city life, Ice. The local
ice men are prepared to supply all or
ders. AS to the quality, as that Is
particularly interesting to the heads
of households where Ice 10 used free
ly in drinking water, II IL a salts
faction TO the dealers In natural Ice
to be able TO assure the public on the
very highest authorities In public
health and scientific circles in this
country, that there Is no danger pos
sible from the use Of their Ice for all
domestic purposes.
For instance, In a recent address,
DR.. II. w. Hill, Of the Minnesota State
Board Of Health, said that, after In
yestigating thousands OF epidemics
Of typhoid fever and dysentery, he
had entirely eliminated natural ice
as a source of disease. for he had
never found a single case traceable
to the use OF natural ice. He now de-
clines to consider ice as a factor In
causing disease and devotes his time
to other possible causes.
And DR.. William T. Sedgwick Of the
Massachusetts, Institute OF Technol.
ogy, at Boston, Americas leading san
itarian, In lecture last fall declared
he had long used natural Ice In drink
ing water for his own family, being
convinced II could not cause any dis
ease but that on the contrary iced
water as a drink In his opinion is a
gentle and effective stimulant Of high
value in combating the physical ex-
haustion occasioned by torrid wealth
er. He also said of natural Ice that
taken by and large 1t Is one of the
purest food materials of our time!"
These opinions are backed by the
results OF recent investigations Of the
effect of freezing on bacteria which
may be present in water. DR.. z. o.
Jordan, professor of bacteriology In
Chicago university, in summing up
the question says: The great ma
jority OF typhoid bacilli perish with
in short time. All investigators
are now agreed that three weeks aft
er freezing less than one per cent,
and probably less than one-half OF
one per cent remain alive" None OF
the natural Ice offered the public now
has been stored for less than four.
and most of II. has been stored for six
to eight weeks, when. according to
Dir. Eugene II. Porter. health commits
sioner of New York state. the last
bacteria is dead and the Ice practical
| ly sterile.
The conclusions Of these eminent
men that natural ice Is not n possible
source OF danger to public health Is
Of vital interest TO the people In this
community, where. owing to our long
warm summers, with many Intensely
hot spells, the fear OF using natural
ice freely In water. tea and other iced
drinks. would cause needless discom.
] fort, IL not actual suffering, to thou
sands Of people.
