CHAPTER II.

young woman hurried out OF one
of the apartments to greet Howard.
She was a vivacious brunette of me-
dunn height, intelligent looking, with
good features and fine teeth. It was
not a doll face, but the face of a
woman who had experienced early the
hard knocks of the world, vet in
whom adversely had not succeeded in
wholly subduing a naturally buoyant.
amiable disposition. There was de-
termination in the lines above her
mouth. 1t was a face full of character,
the face of a woman who by sheer
dint of logged perseverance might ac-
complish any task she cared to set
herself A smile of welcome cleaned
in her eyes as she inquired eagerly:
We'll, dear, anything doing?"
Howard shook his head for all re-
Spouse and a look of disappointment
crossed the young wifes face.
Say, that's tough. amt it?" she
exclaimed. The janitor was here
again for the rent. He says they'll
serve us with dispossess. l told him
to chase himself. I was that mad"
Annie's vocabulary was emphatic
rather than choice. Entirely without
education, she made no pretense al
being what she was not and therein
perhaps lay her chief charm. AS
Howard stopped to kiss her, she said
reproachfully:
you've been drinking again, How
ard. You promised me you wouldn't
The young man made no reply
With an impatient gesture he passed
on into the fat and flung himself
down in a chair in the dining room
From the adjoining kitchen came Z
welcome odor of cooking.
Dinner ready?" he demanded. I'm
devilish hungry
yes. dear. Just minute" replied
his wife from the kitchen. "Therei
some nice Irish stew. Just what yol
like"

in the Astruria cost a small fortune;
he dressed well, drove a smart turn
out and entertained lavishly. He was
not identified with any particular bust
ness or profession. On leaving col
lege he became interested in art. He
frequented the important art sales
and soon got his name in the news
papers as an authority on art matters.
His apartment was literally a museum
Of European and oriental art. On all
sides were paintings by old masters,
beautiful rugs, priceless tapestries,
rare ceramics, enamels, statuary,
antique furniture, bronzes, etc. He
passed for a man of wealth, and moth
ers with manageable daughters, con-
sidering him an eligible young bach
elor, fastened to invite him to their
homes. none of them conscious of the
danger of letting the wolf slip into the
lambs fold.
What a strange power Of fascina-
ton, unused Howard as the train
logged along, men Of Underwoods
bold and reckless type WELD, espe-
cially over women. Their very daring
and unscrupulousness seems to render
them more attractive. He himself at
college had fallen entirely under the
mans spell. There was no doubt that
he was responsible for all his trou-
bles. Underwood possessed the I'M
canny gift of being able to bend peo-
pie to his will. What a fool he
had made of him at the university!
He had been his evil genius, there
was no question of that But for
meeting Underwood he might have ap-
piled himself to serious study, left the
university with honors and be now a
respectable member of the community
He remembered with a smile that II
was through Underwood that he had
met his wife. Some of the fellows
limited that Underwood had known
her more intimately than he had pre-
tended and had only passed her on to
him because he was tired OF her. He
had nailed that as a lie. Annie, he
could swear, was as good a girl as
ever breathed.
He couldn't explain Underwood'l

Ennlneerlna In HospItaIa.

Practically all the important in
Primaries and hospitals in England
have their own electric generating
stations. and the size OF the installa-
tons would surprise the majority OF
engineers. The equipment has to be
designed with unusual care. owing to
the special conditions which prevail
in hospital work. Even where pub
lie supply is available. the use Of an
Independent system is justified on &C
count Of the security which 1t gives
against failure of current at critical
moment. The installations are used
for lighting. heating. ventilating, tele
phoning and other purposes. and
many hospitals have laundries op
Grated electrically. One county asylum
has its own private electric railway
for conveying supplies from the near

nue.. Underwood was coming out. of
a curio shop. He explained hurriedly
that he had left Yale, and when asked
about his future plans talked vaguely
Of going in for art. His matter was
frigid and nervous-the attitude of
the man who fears he may be ap-
preached for a small loan. He was
evidently well aware of the change in
his old associates fortunes. and hav-
ing squeezed all he could out OF him,
had no further use for him. 1t was
only when he had disappeared that
Howard suddenly remembered a loan
of $3.50 which Underwood had never
repaid Some time later Howard
learned that he occupied apartments
at the exclusive and expensive AS
truria, where he was living in great
style He went there determined to
see him and demand his money, but
the card always came back mot at
home"
Underwood had always been a mys-
terry to Howard. He knew him to be
an inveterate gambler and man en-
tirely without principle. No one knew
who his family were or where he
came from. His source of income,
too, was always a puzzle. At college
he was always hard up, borrowing
right and left and forgetting to pay
yet he always succeeded in living on
the fat of the land. His apartments

him what he chose He wondered why
he had not tried to resist. The truth
was Underwood exercised a strange,
subtle power over him. He had the
power to make him do everything he
wanted him to do, no matter how fool
ish or unreasonable the request. Every
one at college used to talk about It.
One night Underwood invited all his
classmates to his rooms and made him
cut up all kinds of capers. He at first
refused, point blank-but Underwood
got up and, standing directly in front
of him, gazed steadily into his eyes.
Again he commanded him to do these
ridiculous degrading things. Howard
felt himself weakening. He was sud
denly seized with the feeling that he
must obey. Amid roars Of laughter
he recited the entire alphabet stand
ing on one leg, he crowed like a
rooster, he hoped like a toad. and
he crawled abjectly on his belly like
snake. One of the fellows told him
afterward that he had been hyp-
notified. He had laughed at 1t then
as a good joke, but now he came to
think of 1t, perhaps it was true. Pos
sibly he was subject. Anyway he
was glad to be rid of Underwood and
his uncanny influence.
The train stopped with jerk at his
station and Howard rode down in the
elevator to the street. Crossing Eighth
avenue, he was going straight home
when suddenly he halted. The glitter
and tempting array of bottles in a
corner saloon window tempted him
He suddenly felt that if there was one
thing he needed in the world above
all others it was another drink. True
he had had more than enough already
But that was Coxe's fault. He had
invited him and made him drink
There couldn't be any harm in taking
another. He might as we'll be hanged
for sheep as a lamb. BY the time
he emerged from the saloon his
speech was thick and his step uncer
tain. A few minutes later he was
painfully climbing up the rickety stairs
of a cheap-looking fiat house. AS h'

The Duration Of Dreams.

Something regarding the duration
of dreams can be gathered from this
experience of a man who. on sitting
down for a dental operation, took gas
and dreamed. He saw himself finish
his work. 60 to the club, leave for
the station. run for the train and miss

clined on a settee in the library. There
he passed a miserable. restless night
getting gradually colder and colder as
the fire died down, and with a pain
gradually growing about his head and
face from the hardness of his couch
Five o'clock in the morning came, and
the steward reused him to say that
the club must now be closed. The
sleeper got up feeling very stifi-tc

What l here say is unsolicited and
originates entirely from my knowledge

an intellectual, educational, and moral

cal crank or freak; but sober, conserv-
ative and experienced representative.
All classes who have their own better
ment in view can do no better than sup
port him. He is more than moral man,
he is religious man. The blood of the
old Puritsns flows in his veins. He

Self Protection the First Law of Nature.

Probably those Pittsburg people who
wish to erect dams above this city so as
to hold the flood waters and let them use
II as needed and keep 1t here when il
would inconvenience them to have it at
Pittsburg have heard of the success of the
Shensngo valley mill owners and furnace
interests in preventing the draining of
Pymstuning Swamp and they are trying
the same game, asking the state and ma
ton to provide them with mill ponds
without charge. In the desire to escape
destructive floods at the time of spring
freshets we are in hearty sympathy
With the desire to escape them at the
cost OF wiping out Franklin and Oil City
the first time dam breaks, and at the
cost of confiscating, with only partial pay
ment for damages, the immense proper
ties they propose to cover with water we
are not especially in harmony. And it
does US considerable good TO contemplate
built. The Pittsburg schemers may, in
some almost incredible way, get the state
and nation TO agree to it. And they. and
all the other high financiers who attempt
to build dams that threaten our lives and
property, may as we'll understand that no
dams will ever be built and filled with
water unless the Oil Country people are
satisfied that they will not endsnger their
wives and children. Self protection is
the first law of nature and that law has
always been in good working order in
this section, and will continue to be.
However, so tiendish scheme will not
get very far, either at Washington or

here he authorized us 10 state that he
could under no circumstances be induced
