she stood silent, CHASTITY with lack of

to tell In which extreme her feeling
spoke most truly.
What was the feeling? Nurse Unwin
felt it imperative to know. She ap-
preached Carmel with renewed offers
of help and such expressions of sym
pathy as she thought might lure her
Into open speech.
But discretion had come with fear,
and Carmel, while not disdaining the
others kindness, instantly made it ap-
parent that, whatever her burden and
however unsuited it was to her present
weak condition, it was not n she felt
willing to share.

The soul in Carmel seemed to vanish
at this word. The eyes, which had
been so ~farseeing the moment before,
grew blank and the 1.-THE young body
stiff with that. death in life which is
almost worse to look upon than death
itself. Then the stony eyes softened
and fell, the rigidity of her frame re-
Taxed, and Carmel sank back again on
the sofa and tried to read the head
lines on the open sheet before her.
But her eyes were unequal to the task.
With a sob she dropped the paper and
entreated the nurse to relate to her
from her own knowledge all that had
passed.
Miss Unwin complied, but with res
ervations. She said nothing about the
marks on Adelaide's throat or of the
special reason which the police had for
arresting Mr.. Ranelagh. She did not
dare. Strangulation was a horrible
death to contemplate, and if this fac
tor in the crime-she was not deceived
by Carmel's exclamation that there
had been no murder-was unknown as
yet to her patient, as 1t must be from
what she had said, and the absolute

: remain unknown to her until circum-
stances forced it on her knowledge or
she had got sufficient strength to bear
1t.
Carmel received the account well.
When she had it fully in mind she
looked up into the nurses face again
4 and repeated, quite calmly. but with
immovable decision, the order Of an
hour before:
1--WE must return at once. You will
pack up Immediately"
Miss Unwin nodded and began to
open the trunks.
This, however, was a ruse. b did
not intend to take her patient back
that night. She was afraid to risk 1t.
The next day would be soon enough.
But she would calm her by making
ready and when the proper moment
came would find some complication Of
trains which would interfere with their
Immediate departure.
Meanwhile she would communicate
at the earliest moment with Mr.. Fox.
She had been in the habit of sending
him frequent telegrams as to her pa
TENTS condition. They had been inva-
riable so far-"No difference. mind
still q blank" or some code word sig
nifcant Of the same. But a new word
was necessary now. She must look 1t
up and formulate her telegram before
she did anything else.
The code book was in her top tray.
She hunted and hunted for 1t without
being able to lay her hands on it. She
grew very nervous. She was only hui
man; she was in a very trying posi-
ton, and she realized IT. Where could
that book be? Suddenly she espled 1t
and, falling on her knees before the
trunk, with her back still to Carmel,
studied out the words she wanted.
She was leaning over the tray to write
these words in her notebook when-no
one ever knew how it happened-the
lid of the heavy trunk fell forward and
It's iron edge struck her on the nape Of
the neck with a keen blow which laid
her senseless. When Carmel reached
her side she found herself the strong
one and her stalwart nurse the patient.
When help had been summoned the
accident explained and everything
done for the unconscious woman which
medical skill could suggest Carmel
finding a moment to herself, stole tC
the trunk and, lifting up the lid, looked
In. She had been watchful of hel
nurse from the first and was suspi
cious of the actions which had led tc
this untoward accident. Seeing the
two little books, she took them out
The notebook lay open. and on the
page thus disclosed she beheld written

BATHING In Sweden.


The weekly bath at some of the pri-
vate schools in Sweden Is a very fun
ny affair. Running hot and cold wa.
ter is unknown, and that the pupils
may all battle at the same time and
help each other round, shallow tubs
full Of water are placed on the floor
IN a circle.
Each boy is given q pair Of cloth NIT
tens and a piece of soap and told to get
into a tub. The tubs are close togeth-
er. When the boys have been In soak
q few minutes each one is told TO set
to work on the back of the boy in
front Of him and give him a good
scrubbing.
Nothing could be more ludicrous
than the sight of two or more dozen
boys vigorously b%elaboring each 9TH
er's back with their wash rags. Occa-
sionaIly one will take this opportu-
nifty of paying of an old score and
will dig his neighbor's back with a
vengeance. AS q rule, all look for
ward to the bath hour with pleasure.
and the greatest hiiarity prevails amid
the splashing Of soap and water.

WHERE is MY ~BRoTHER?"
Vat HAT is the explanation OF
NV Carmers temperance In
town and of his sensational
Introduction of her into the
courtroom in a restored state of health
Of which no one so far as known, had
had any intimation saw the man who
was responsible for her appearance?
The particulars are due you.
She had passed some weeks at Lake
wood under the eye of Miss Irwin,
the nurse who was detailed to watch
as well as tend her. During these
weeks she gave no sign Of improve
ment mentally, though she constantly
gained strength otherwise and I'M
pressed everybody with the clear light
In her eye and the absence of every
thing suggestive Of gloom in her e
preston and language. There was the
same complete loss Of memory up to
the time Of the tragic occurrence which
had desolated her home; the same
harping at odd moments IN Adelaide's
happiness and her own prospect of
seeing this dear sister very soon which
bad marked the opening days Of her
convalescence. But beyond and back
OF all this was some secret JOY, unin-
telligible to the nurse, which helped
rather than retarded the sick girls re-
covery.
Meanwhile Carmel was allowed such
liberty as her condition required, but
was never left alone for a moment
after n certain day when her eye sud
denly took on a strange look Of con-
fused inquiry totally ASSOCIATED with
anything she saw or heard.
The awakening took place at Lake
wood. Carmel had been out and was
Just crossing the hall Of her hotel to
the elevator when she stopped with a
violent start and, clutching the air,
was caught by her nurse, who had
hurried up at the first intimation OF
anything unusual in the condition of
her patient.
The cause of this agitation was i'm
mediately apparent. Near them sat
two ladies'. each with a small wine
