Il amt got hunch, but got q toll
cradle good hand" Campbell an
nounced, as he slid in his slip; "but
It's not raising hand"
Mine u.s." Daylight paused and
wrote. II see that thousand and raise
her the same old thousand"
The Virgin, standing behind him,
then did what mans best friend was
not privileged to do. Reaching over
Daynght's shoulder. she picked up his
hand and read it, at the same time
shielding the faces Of the cards close
to his chest What she saw were
three queens and pair Of Fights, but
nobody guessed what she saw.
Every players eyes were on her face
as she scanned the cards, but no sign
did she give. She laid the hand face
down again on the table and slowly
the lingering eyes withdrew from her,
having learned nothing.
Macdonald smiled henevolently. y
see you, Daylight, and hump this
time for two thousand. How's that
bunch, Jack?"
"Still a-crawling, Mac. You got me
now, but that bunch Is a rip-snorter
persuadin' sort of a critter. and it's
my plain duty to ride 1t. I call for
three thousand. And / got another
bunch; Daylight's going to call. too"
HE sure is." Daylight agreed, after
Campbell had thrown up his hand.
"He knows when he's up against 1t.
and he plays accordin'. I see that
two thousand, and then I'll sec the
draw"
In q dead silence, save for the low
voices Of the three players, the draw
was made. Thirty-four thousand dol
lars were already In the pot, and the
play possibly not half over. To the
Virgins amazement, Daylight held up
his three queens, discarding his Fights
and calling for two cards. And this
time not even she dared look at what
he had drawn. She knew her limit
Of control. Nor did he look. The two
new cards lay face down on the table
where they had been dealt to him.
, SCOT enough" was the reply.
"You can draw II you want to, you
KNOW, h0dTuS WauSQ QlIu.
:. Nope; this'n do me-"
Kearns himself drew two cards, but
did not look at them. Still Harnish let
his cards lie.
81 never bet In tho teeth of a pat
hand" he said slowly, looking at the
saloon keeper. "You-all start her roll
ing. Mac"
Macdonald counted his cards care
fully, to make doubly sure 1t was not
q foul hand. wrote q sum on a paper
slip, and slid It into the pot, with the
simple utteranee:
Five thousand"
Kearns, with every eye upon him.
looked at his twocard draw, counted
the other three to dispeI any doubt Of
holding more than I'VE cards. and
wrote on q betting slip.
ct see you, Mac" he said. "and I
raise her Q little thousand Just 30 a to
keep Daylight out
The concentrated gaze shifted to
Daylight He likewise examined his
draw and counted his ave cards.
!, "T see that six thousand. and raise
| her five thousand Just to try
and keep you out, Jack"
"And I raise you i've thousand just
to lend a hand at keeping Jack out, /"
Macdonald said In turn.
His voice was slightly husky and
strained, and a nervous witch In the
corner of his mouth followed speech
Kearns was pale. and those who
looked on noted that his hand trem-
bled as he wrote his slip. But his
voice was unchanged.

Daylight was now in the center.

Prominent In the establishment OF the

Of other apparatus, also indicates the
amount of this heat lost in coming
through the atmosphere. Similar in
struments are being distributed through
out the civilized world for the measure
ment of this heat on a uniform scale.
Besides the general subject Of the SUM-
treated from a purely astronomical point
OF view, the book contains considerable
Information concerning topics depending
thereon, such as botany, agriculture,
physics and engineering. For example. in
one chapter the author shows the neces-
sity Of sunlight and heat ON plant life
indicating the chemical changes brought
about in their growth by one or another
of the suns functions. 1t is interesting
to note that plants raised in darkness are
not well developed, neither do they be-
come green, but remain white or pale
yellow. Consider what strange looking
vegetation would result II sunlight did
not exist. The physicist and engineer will
find matter for thought in chapter en-
titled utilizing Solar Energy" in which
many old experiments with solar heat are
reviewed. some modern schemes, such hs
solar heaters, cookers and engines are
explained, and some data for use in de-
sign are advanced.
Science in Its Infancy.
The science of astrophyslcs is In its in
fancy; the lack of past records is its
great handicap, and yet il modern investi-
gators continue to observe and faithfully
record their observations, there awaits
some future astrophysicist of the days to
come, a vast, II not complete, knowledge
Of the evolution Of the universe.
In conclusion the author says: THE
child is said to long to grasp the moon.
Who in his maturer years, has never
wished that he might stand upon the
moon, and watch the earth at full,
glorious planet OF the night, four times
as far from rim to rim, and twice as
bright in every part as is the moon it.

patient and sound labors have given us

them may see unroled the wider view
