CHAPTER V.
Mercy Again.

You are a careful needlewoman,
Miss Dill" said the matron in waiting
at the rooms of the Sewing Women's
Aid Society,"" we sell your work
readily, because it is so well DONE"
She put down the tiny infant gar
and frilled. and counting out some
money-absurdly disproportionate, it
seemed, to the amount of labor in the
pretty things-passed it to Mercy Dill.
How are you getting on, my dear?"
she asked, with 81 much genuine SYM
pathy that the tears sprang involuntar-
lily in Mercy's eyes.
"Tolerably well, thank you," said an
swered, in a low, panied voice that told
it's own story.
You poor child" sighed the matron;
then she folded up bundle of fresh
material six pillow shams to be en-
broidered with initials Miss Dill-six
slips and two christening robes"
And Mercy took up the parcel, and
with her hard earned money in her
hand, passed through a little crowd of
waiting fellow workers, and descended
the stair to the street.
The wet, dreary day was already dy-
ing The east wind blew in from the
harbor sharp as a knife. The pave
ments were slippery and thick with
mire. A penetrating drizZle enveloped
everything, and a dark, stormy night
was fast gathering over Boston city.
Mercy Dill's jacket was threadbare
with age and constant usage; a cheap
veil mercifully shrouded the defects in
her hat; her cotton-and- wool dress was
whole and clean, but that was all that

When the volley was discharged and
the medicine man did not fall. 1t was
whispered that the magic power had
blinded the soldiers. A sergeant's
horse became unmanageable and bolt
ed from the line, straight toward the
medicine man. Wraps Up His Tail
drew a revolver and shot the soldier
through the body. The medicine man
then waved his terrible red sword, but
no heads fell. The order was given to
charge, and as the cavalry swept to-
ward him. the medicine man ued to-
ward the river. A Hotchkiss shell
burst under his pony at the edge OF
the river and killed the animal, but
Wraps Up -His-Tail plunged into the
stream, and had he reached the other
side no doubt he would have been as.
sisted to escape, even II his sympa-
thizing tribesmen did not go so far as
to shoot down the cavalrymen who
were in pursuit. But Fire Bear, see
ing that the drama had reached its
crisis and that something must be
done at once, rode down to the edge Of
the stream, and before the Crows real
lied his purpose leveled his heavy SER
vice revolver and fired at the medicine
man. The Indian policeman's aim was
true, and Wraps Up Install tossed
up his arms and disappeared in the
swift current Of the Little Big Horn
while the cavalrymen halted on the
opposite bank and watched the willing
Crows search for the body Of their
prophet.
Fire Bear Is still Crow policeman.
For years he was unpopular with his
own people on account of the killing
of Wraps Up His Tail, but he has
gone on doing his duty and earning
the confidence of each succeeding Indi-
an agent He and his chief, Big Medi-
cine, have been the leading figures In
the Crow Indian police for many years.
A dozen or fifteen of these Crow po-
lice guard a reservation that is about
as large as Massachusetts,. They have
to contend against 'bootleggers,"
horse thieves, cattle rustlers and bad
men" whose speciality is gun fighting.

three leagues overland and launched
them in the lake. He mounted a part
Of his galleys on wheels and drew
them two leagues from the Bosphorus
over the heights and hollows Of Pera
and dropped them in the Golden Horn.
While the siege was progressing a
naval battle occurred in which the
Turks were worsted. Won Hammer de-
scribes this contest as follows: THE
18th Of April, 145'. the Turkish fleet Of
more than 400 ails issued from the
Bay of Phidalia and, directing itself
toward the mouth of the Bosphorus on
the western side, cast anchor near the
two villages known today as Besich-
tasch. A few days afterward five ves-
sells appeared in the Marmora, one be-
longing to the Emperor Constantine
and four to the Genoese. A division Of
the Turkish fleet, $50 in number, ad-
vanced against them. The eighteen
galleys at the head of the division,

Farewell, friend. Shall l find you
again at this corner If I want you. a
week, a month hence?"
That you will, sir, it's my stand; !;
I'm here reg'lar."
He of the dark face and foreign ac-
cent nodded expressively, turned on his
heel and walked away.
And Mercy? With her bundle grasp
ed tightly in one frightened hand, she
was rushing down the street, jostling
fellow pedestrians, lodging aggressive
umbrellas, not daring to look behind
her, lest she should see that man at her
back.
A fire alarm sounded in the murky
air. Suddenly she found herself in a
great crowd Of people and vehicles-a
blockade of cars, fire engines and po-
lice-a maelstrom in which one atom of
humanity might plunge and be lost
from all but an Omniscient gaze.
Instantly Mercy sprang from the safe
curbstone into the midst of the danger-
Gus tumult. Her bundle was knocked
from her hand. She stopped to pick It
up, and was struck and thrown down
by a snorting horse-thrown, but be-
fore the iron hoofs could trample her,
snatched up again by a strong arm,
bundle and all, and carried, half-sense-
less to the opposite sidewalk.
Good heaven! how imprudent of
you, Miss Dill" cried a male voice,
How did you expect to get through
that jam alone? If 1 hadn't reached
you just as 1 did, you'd have been
crushed to death, ten to one"
She grasped his arm with both hands
looking back over her shoulder in a
pale, scared, hunted fashion.
"Oh, Is it you, Mr.. Black?" she said
with long. sobbing breath.
"Of course, who else should 1t be?'
answered Val Black, tucking her under
his arm. What's the matter? How
white you are! How you tremble! Are
you hurt?"
She half opened her lips to tell him
of the unpleasant thing which had be-
fallen her; but feeling like shame
and a certain shyness which often as
sailed her in this young fellows pres
ence, held her dumb. The man was
gone, her fright was over, and she
would never mention the horrible, hate
full incident to any one.
mo, am not hurt" she stammered
1T is nothing, thank you. Oh, how GLAD
am that you were near!"
ITO be continued.)

DEBTS OF BALKAN STATES.
Turkey Can Still Pay Her Loans it
Left Asian Empire.

Turkey Can Still Pay Her Loans if
Left Asian Empire.
Financiers are figuring out how bond
holders will stand after the map Of the
Bankans is rearranged.
All the little states have been run
ming into debt, getting ready for war.
Three -fourths Of their bonds are he'd
in France.
Turkey last year had a debt Of $570.-
0O0, 900, not badly deprecated, says the
New York World. With only Constan-
tinople left in Europe she will still
have nearly 200,OO0,oO0 people, but 1t Is
not easy to tax the Arabians. Her
debt is $3.50 per head. For compari-
son, that of France Is $l56 head, all
held at home; that of the United
States Qnterest -bearing) s11; that or
New Zealand, $3.50, mainly for pro-
ductive purposes.
In borrowing money Turkey has sub
mitted to conditions that really indie
pendent nations would refuse. Portions
of her revenue are ear marked for GER
tain debts, and the Powers claim the
right to restrict even her tariff rates.
This will make financial readjustments
complicated.
Bulgaria has old loans of $24 head,
has recently borrowed sS,00O,000 more,
and presumably owes Car Ferdinand
his great personal fortune, which he
has risked on the war. Servia's DEBT
is $50 head, Greece's, s65 and rather
badly deprecated. With more territory
her credit will be better. Her govern
ment is now efficient.
Montenegro has not had to wheedle
money lenders to buy powder and can
non. Big brother Russia has long al
lowed her 5000, 900 year for guns and
schools, chiefly guns, and King Mich
olas can get any money he needs from
rich relatives in st. Petersburg with
out bothering the Bourses Montenegro
bonds are practically not listed on the
exchanges, but sold by private agree
| ment.
Considering their fertility and re-
sources, none Of the Balkan states Is
alarmingly handicapped by debt, as
Portugal seemed to be with her $3.50 a
| head of bonds when the republic was
| declared.

Eats no matter of yours. You will
tell me her name and where she lives.
and 1 will give you this bit of green
paper. Is it bargain?"
Joseph looked cautious.
It's always best for man to know
who he's dealing with"
Dame! Here is re money! VIII
you take it? Yes or no?"
If the old man had ever possessed
conscience 1t was now as dead as the
Pharaohs. He held out his grimy hand
eagerly.
Yes, I'll take it. Her names Mercy
Dill; she's a sewing girl, with drunk
en- mother, and good as gold, as 1 said
afore. She lives at No. 10 Seedy Court
Joseph remembered only too well the
writing on the paper which had been
left in his care for Moll Dill you can
find the place easy enough. Much
obliged to you, sir"
mo. 10 Seedy Court" repeated the
gentleman, in a tone that plainly show
ed he meant to remember the address.

Tho Turkish Exodus.-War corre-

Tho Turkish Exodus.-War corre-
spondents say the Turkish population
is fleeing en- masse before the Bulgari-
an army, leaving the country behind
them uninhabited. No movement like
this has taken place since the middle
ages. A correspondent says, This
headlong flight Of the population east
ward and southwark is no ordinary fu-
gitive's flight from home scenes to
which they will return. There is and
has been for a week no one beyond
Tchorlu The hordes seem to have
fallen back towards Constantinople by
instinct. Their villages have all been
burned and they will erect villages on
the other side of the Bosphorus."
In view Of the foregoing and in
view of the way the flower Of the
Turkish army was moved down by
the Bulgarians, it Is small wonder
that many think the hand Of God Is
in the disruption Of European Turkey.
The driving of the Turks beyond the
Bosphorus may mean, however, a pc
riod of rest and reconstruction to Pal
estine and other portions Of Asiatic
Turkey, while the nations Of Europe
are engaged in a death struggle over
the spoils she has left. If this be so,
what a wonderful incentive 1t Is to all
Jews to leave Europe and return to
their native land!
In Gen 1873 God promises Abraham
"all the land of Canaan for an ever
lasting possession" In Gen. 1918 this
everlasting title covers from the river
of Egypt unto the great river, the riv-
er Euphrates." In Gen. 35:12 the deed
was confirmed to Jacob. Gen. 1884 and
97:1 agree that Abraham and Jacob,
during their life times were strangers
in the land which they and their pos
terity are yet to have "for an everlast-
ing possession" (Gen. 48:4.)
How unreasonable God would have
been to tell Abraham to Lift up now
thine eyes and look from the place
where thou art northward and south
ward and eastward and westward, for
all the land which thou seest to thee
will give 1t and to thy seed forever"
(Gen. 13:14-15), II neither Abraham
nor his posterity are ever to come into
possession Of the land!

ABOUT DIPHTHERlA.
What II Is, How to Detect II and
What to Do for IL.

What X Is How to Detect II and
What to Do for II.
Diphtheria is a dangerous commu-
nicable disease. 1t is more prevalent
in cold weather than in summer. This
Is because 1t is highly contagious and
because in winter we lock ourselves
up close in alright houses, school
rooms and churches, where 1t is more
easily transmitted. Diphtheria is
caused by a specific germ propagated
in the human body. The disease Is
harbored in filth and usually trans
mitted through air, water, milk, food,
clothing, by means Of playthings.
The disease usually affects the
throat, but it may spread to the mouth
or nose. The first indications Of diph-
iberia are sore throat, loss Of ap-
petite, headache, feverish, hot, dry
skin, soreness and swelling at the
angle of the jaw, and, frequently,
profuse secretions with offensive
odors. A white coating or membrane
in the back part Of the mouth and
throat is almost positive proof Of diph-
iberia.
When children evidence some Of the
above symptoms, do not be misled
and neglect 1t as ordinary sore
throat" tonsilitis, or laryngitis. Find
out about it by calling in your family
doctors. Failure to recognize diphth-
eria early, oft-times results fatally or
becomes the cause of extensive cpl
denies. AS soon as diphtheria Is dis
covered, the health officer should be
advised, in order that he may be on
the alert to forestall an epidemic
among others who have been exposeds
The generally recognized method
of treating diphtheria is by use OF
antitoxin, which Is administered In
small doses as a preventative to those
who have been exposed to the disease.
The law requires the state board OF
health to arrange for the distriou-
ton Of diphtheria antitoxin from
number Of points throughout the state
where physicians can obtain 1t with
out paying the outrageous prices
charged a few years ago. Formerly
the smallest dose cost sometimes 81
or SO. Now 1t can be obtained through
the state board Of health for so cents.
This is the best price obtainable from
the manufacturers, though 1t really
costs only about ten cents to make 1t.
It is hoped that the next legislature
will see its way clear to require the
