LIVED LONG WITHOUT EATING
Men and Animals Have Made some
Remarkable Fasts a Matter
Of Record.

The record for fasting, so far as hu-
manity ig concerned, is held by
Granie, a French murderer, who de-
termined to starve himself to death.
and from the day of his arrest refused
to eat. In spite of every effort on the
part of his warders, who first tried
tempting him to eat by placing the
most dainty meals in his cell, and
when that failed, attempted feeding
him by force, he held out for 63 days,
at the end of which time he died. Up
to then the longest authenticated fast
on record was that accomplished by
Giovanni Succi, who tasted at the
Royal Aquarium, London, for 45 days.
But these records sink into insigniti-
canoe when compared with the fat
pig of Dover, enshrined in DR.. w. B.
Carpenters Manual of Physiology"
This pig weighed 100 pounds and was
entombed for 100 days by the fall OF
a portion of the chalk cliffs. When
dug out it weighed only 40 pounds,
but to the surprise of its owner was
alive.

CHAPTER XIIl.-contInued.

They passed long series of doors,
the glass panels of which were in
scribed, The Wallingham Company
Private" with index fingers pointing
the direction of the main entrance.
This was the Chicago branch of the
great New York corporation, and
Thomas Wallingham, Sr., had placed
his son in charge OF it two years
before The business was the manu-
facture Of refrigerators. One side of
the reception room which Orme en-
Eered hurriedly, Alcatrante still be-
side him, was given over to a large
specimen refrigerator chamber, built
in with glistening white tiles. The
massive door, three feet thick, was
wide open, showing the spotless inner
Ehamber. In the outer wall was a ther-
mometer dial fully foot in diameter
Once inside the reception room
Orme stopped and looked again at AL
catrante. There was menace in the
look, but the South American did not
Ninch. Indeed, the glance which met
bis own seemed to Orme to be dis,
armingly good natured. Its essence
was a humorous recognition that the
situation had ridiculous side.
But Orme, knowing that much was
at stake. did not for an instant trust
his unwelcome companion. Alca
trante would cling to him like an
Old Man of the Sea, awaiting the op
portunity to get the better of him
Every vile would be employed; but
publicity was no part of the game
Orme began really to believe that.
To shake off Alcatrante, perhaps
there was no better way than to lure
him to some deserted place and over
power him. But would not Alcatrante
be likely to have anticipated such g
move? And would he not resort tc
desperate measures of his own before
Orme could put his own plans into
practise? Bixby might help.
Crme walked over to the inquiry

tiling. II was designed to show the
sanitary construction Of the Walling'
ham refrigerator. Orme remembered
how Tom had explained 1t all to him
on a previous visit to Chicago.
This was merely a storage chamber.
There was no connection with an ice
chamber, and there were none of the
it complete for its purpose. The only
appliance was the thermometer, thG
coils of which were fitted in flush with
the tiling, near the door, and protected
by a close metal grating. AS for thS
door itself, its outline was fine seam.
There was handle.
AS the match burned close to hiA
fingers, Orme pulled out his watch. Ie
was twenty-nine minutes past five.
Darkness again.
Orme CROPPED his way to the door and
tugged at the handle. The door would
not open; built with air-tight nicetyS
It did not bulge in the least
This was what Orme had expected,
He knew that Alcatrante would have
shot the bolt. He knew, too, that AL
catrante would be waiting in the cor
ridor, to assure himself that the last
clerk left the office without freeing the
prisoner-that all the lights were out
and the office locked for the night
Then he would depart, exulting that
the papers could not be delivered; and
in the morning Orms would be ro-
leased.
But had Alcatrante realized that tho
chamber was air-tight7 Surely he had
not known that the girl was already
there. The air that might barely sut.
fee to keep one alive until relief came
would not suffice for two.
There was not the least opening to
admit of ventilation. Even the places
where, In a practical refrigerator, con.
nection would be made Wtte tie Ice
chamber, were blocked up: Tor that
matter, they were on that side Of Che
chamber which was built close into the
corner of the Office.
Orme drove his heel against the
wall. The tiles did not break. Then
he stepped back toward the middle Of
the chamber.
Where are you. Girl?" he asked.
Here" she answered, very neaz
him.

Finding me?
81 called up the Pere Marquette
about five minutes ago, and the clerk
said that you had Just been talking to
him on the wire, but that he didn't
know where you were. Then remem-
bered that you knew the Wallinghams,
and came to Toms office to see If he
had any idea where you were. l was
on my way when l passed you in the
elevator"
TON and Bessie are St Glenview,"
explained Orme.
Yes, the girl at the inquiry desk
told me. She went to get her hat to
leave for the night, and slipped into
this chamber to wait for you"
And here we are," Orme laughed
papers and all. But wish 1t weren't
so dark"
Orme hunted his pockets for =
match. He found just one.
Il don't suppose, Girl, that you hap
pen to have such thing as a match?"
She laughed lightly. I'm sorry
no."
Il have only one," he said. I'm
going to strike 1t, so that We can get
our bearings"
He scratched the match on his sole.
The first precious moment Of light he
permitted himself to look at her, fixing
her face in his mind as though he
were never to see it again. 1t re-
joiced him to find that in that instant
her eyes also turned to his.
The interchange of looks was hard
for him to break. Only half the match
was gone before he turned from her,
but in that time he had asked and an
swered so many unspoken questions
questions which at the moment were
still little more than hopes and yearn-
ings. His heart was beating rapidly.
If she had doubted him, she did not
doubt him now. If she had not under
stood his feeling for her, she must un-
derstand 1t now. And the look in her
own eyes-could he question that 1t
was more than friendly? But the ne
cessity of making the most of the light
forced him to forget for the moment
the tender presence of the girl who
! filled his heart. He therefore employed
himself with quick study of their sur
roundings.
The chamber was about ten feet
square, and lined smoothly with white
