Simple Faith Of eretons.

There is probably no place in
France where the peasantry are more
Inclined to believe m the so-called
hidden forces of nature. and where
the INSCRIPTIONS charlatan has so
good an opportunity of deceiving his
listeners as in Brittany. Whether in
sickness or in health, the people of
Brittany look for an answer to their
demands in the mysterious kingdom
of the supernatural, and with a faith
which, to the educated, is sometimes
almost unbelievable. curious in
stance oe this widespread superstition
is cited by M. Paul Geniaux. a we'll
known French folklorist. The inhabi-
tants of Muzillac and district. in the
Morbihan, firmly believe that the only
effective method of curing their chill
dren of the collie is to carry them to
a certain chapel, that of st. Manners,
and deposit them on the altar. There
they humble short prayer, the text
of which you can never get them to
confess-and the cure is Immediately

"About one. SIR"

"About one, sir"
Then DR.. Watson and will come
round in time. For the present. Mrs.
Warren. goodby."
At half-past twelve we found our
selves upon the steps Of Mrs. War
ren's house-a high, thin. yellow
brick edifice in Great Orme street,
a narrow thoroughfare at the north
east side of the British museum.
Standing as 1t does near the corner
Of the street, it commands a view
down Howe street. with its more pre-
tentious houses. Holmes pointed
with chuckle to one of these, row
of residential fats, which projected
so that they could not fail to catch the
eye.
"See. Watson!" said he. "'High
house with stone facings.' There is
the signal station all right. We know
the place. and we know the code; 30
surely our task should be simple.
There's To Let card in that won
dow. 1t is evidently an empty fat
to which tho confederate has access.
Well, Mrs. Warren, what now?"
Il have 1t all ready for you. II you
will both come up and leave your
boots below ON the landing. I'll put
you there now"
1t was an excellent hiding-place
which she had arranged. The mirror
was so placed that, seated in the dark,
we could very plainly see the door op-
posite. We had hardly settled down
in it. and Mrs. Warren left us, when
a distant tinkle announced that our
mysterious neighbor had rung. Pres
emily the landlady appeared with the
tray. laid 1t down upon a chair beside
the closed door, and then, treading
heavily. departed. Crouching togeth-
er in the angle Of the door, We kept
our eyes fixed upon the mirror. Sud-
denly, as the landlady's footsteps died
away, there was the creak of turn
ing key, the handle revolved, and two
thin hands darted out and lifted the
tray from the chair. An instant later
it was hurriedly replaced, and I caught
glimpse of dark, beautiful. horri-
fled face glaring at the narrow open
ing of the boxroom. Then the door
crashed to. the key turned once more.
and all was silence. Holmes twitched
my sleeve, and together we stole down
the stair.

sequence of events is pretty clear, is
it not? A couple seek refuge in Lon
don from very terrible and instant
danger. The measure of that danger
is the rigor of their precautions. The
man, who has some work which he
must do, desires to leave the woman
in absolute safety while he does 1t. 1t
is not an easy problem, but he solved
it in an original fashion, and so effec-
lively that her presence was not even
known to the landlady who supplies
her with food. The printed messages,
as is now evident, were to prevent
her sex being discovered by her writ
ing. The man cannot come near the
woman, or he will guide their enemies
to her. Since he cannot communicate
with her direct, he has recourse to the
agony column of paper. So far all
is clear"
But what is at the root of it?"
"Ah, yes, Watson-severely practi
cal, as usual! What is at the root
of it all? Mrs. Warren's whimsical
problem enlarges somewhat and as
sumes a more sinister aspect as We
proceed. This much we can say:
that it is no ordinary love escapade.
You saw the woman's face at the sign
of danger. We have heard. too. of the
attack upon the landlord, which was
undoubtedly meant for the lodger.
These alarms, and the desperate need
for secrecy, argue that the matter is
one of life or death. The attack upon
Mr.. Warren further shows that the
enemy, whoever they are, are them
selves not aware of the substitution
of the female lodger for the male. 1t
is very curious and complex, Wat
son."
why should you go further in it?
What have you to gain from it?"
What indeed? 1t is Art for Arts
sake, Watson. ! suppose when you
doctored you found yourself studying
cases without thought of fee?"
