CHAPTER x.
On the Two sides of the Door.

On the Two Sides of the Door.
The cabin contained large and a
small room. In the wall between
them there was a doorway closed by
an ordinary batten door with wood
en- latch and no lock. Closed it served
to hide the occupant Of one room
from the view of the other, otherwise
it was but a feeble protection. Even
had it possessed a lock, a vigorous
man could have burst it through in a
moment.
These thoughts did not come very
clearly to Enid Maitland. Few
thoughts of any kind came to her.
Where she lay she could see plainly
the dancing light of the glorious fire.
She was warm, the deftly wrapped
bandage, the healing lotion upon her
foot. had greatly relieved the pain in
that wounded member The bed was
hard but comfortable, much more so
than the sleeping bags to which of
late she had been accustomed.
Few women had gone through such
experiences, mental and physical, as
had befallen her within the last few
hours and lived to tell the story. Had
it not been for the exhaustive strains
of body and spirit to which she had
been subjected, her mental faculties
would have been on the alert and the
strangeness of her unique position
would have made her so nervous that
she could not have slept
For the time being, however, the
physical demands upon her entity
were paramount; she was dry, she
was warm, she was fed. she was free
from anxiety and she was absolutely
unutterably weary. Her thoughts
were vague, inchoate, unconcentrated.
The fire wavered before her eyes, she
closed them in a few moments and
did not open them.
Without a thought, without a care,
she fell asleep. Her repose was COM
plete. not a dream even disturbed the
profound slumber into which she
sank. Pretty picture she made; her
head thrown backward, her golden
hair roughly dried and quickly plait-
ed in long braids, one of which fell
along the pillow while the other
curled lovingly around her neck. Her
face in the natural light would have
looked pallid from what she had gone
through, but the fire cast red glows
upon it: the fitful light tlickered
across her countenance and some
times deep shadows unrelieved ac-
centuated the paleness born Of her
sufferings.
There is no light that plays so
many tricks with the imagination, or
that so stimulates the fancy as the
light of an open fire. In its sudden
outbursts it sometimes seems to add
life touches to the sleeping and the

dead. Had there been any eye to see
this girl, she would have made a de
lightful picture in the warm glow
from the stone hearth. There were
no eyes to look, however, save those
which belonged to the man on the
other side of the door.
On the hither side of that door in
the room where the fire burned on the
hearth, there was rest in the heart of
the occupant; on the farther side
where the fire only burned in the
heart, there was tumult. Not outward
and visible, but inwe d and spiritual.
and yet there was no lack of apparent
manifestation of the turmoil In the
mans soul
Albeit the room was smaller than
the other, it was still of a good size

Her Grace of Sutherland Danced al
London Masked Ball In Male
Attire.

A carefully concealed sensation OF
given at Covent Garden. came to light
in London when 1t was learned that
among the glittering throng OF orien-
tai dancers was her grace the duchess
of Sutherland in male attire-that OF
maharajah. The incident was
deemed so serious that family con
clave was called at Stafford house, the
magnificent Sutherland residence. in
ST. James street.
But it was not the duke who caused
the trouble, but the earl OF Rosslyn,
the countess brother, who ordered his
sister to give an account of herself. "
The duchess took umbrage at this
style of censor and citing his some
what lurid career babe him defiance.
Il would like to KNOW" she is re-
ported to have said, who appointed
you as censor OF this family's NOR
ais; so don't talk rot"
A cross-examination ELECTED from
the duchess the fact that while she
did wear a mans clothes at the ball
and also painted her face to swarthy
hue to resemble the eastern poten-
tate, her trousers were very baggy
and a cloak enveloped her figure.
So at the conclusion OF the inQuisi.
ton the duchess figured that the earl
OF RosslyH owed her an apology.

HOW MANY OF US

Apparatus for Finding Water.

The hazel twig as a water finder has
been supplanted by a remarkable in.
vention, consisting of a simple ap-
paratus. The principle on which the
instrument works is the measuring Of
the strength of electric currents
between the earth and the atmos-
phere. These are always strongest in
the vicinity of subterranean water
courses, the flowing waters Of which
are charged with electricity to a GER
tain degree. The apparatus takes
the form Of box-shaped instrument
fixed on tripod, with a dial on which
a needle is used to indicate the pres
ence of water. II the needle remains
stationary it may be taken for grant
ed that no subterranean spring ex-
lists; the spot where the greatest
movement of the needle is obtained is
that where well boring operations
should be made.

But she did not have her cousins

hard to tell whether this lack lessen
ed or increased the effect, when In
exactly the same grave, even tones,
she occasionally read aloud some OF
the verse that he wrote, not for pub
lication, but for the pleasure of his
intimate circle. That was always
light, frequently gay, sometimes fair
ly rollicking.
Her admiration for the writer made
her try very hard to appreciate his
fun; and she thought she did so: yet
mirth seemed always an alien to her
tongue as red rosette pinned upon
her dove-gray shoulder-shawl would
have been to her costume. This in
congruity was felt, doubtless, by an
other Friend, of even more serious
mind than she, who once said to her

So soon as she was out of his arms,

the situation; indeed, she thought
swiftly there was nothing else to do,
she had no choice, she could not have
been left alone there in the rocks in
that rain, she could not walk. He
was doing the only thing possible. The
compulsion of the inevitable was upon
them both.
They went slowly, the man often
stopped for rest, at which times he
would seat her tenderly upon some
PROSTATE tree, or some rounded boul-
der, until he was ready to resume his
task. He did not bother her with ex-
PLANTATION, discussion or other CONVEX
sation, for which she was most thank
full. Once or twice during the slow
progress she tried to walk, but the
slightest pressure on her wounded
foot nearly caused her to faint. He
made no complaint about his burden
and she found it, after all, pleasant to
be upheld by such powerful arms;
she was so SICK so tired, SO worn out,
and there was such assurance of

BY and by, in the last stage of their
Journey her head dropped on his
shoulder and she actually fell into an
uneasy troubled sleep. He did not
know whether she slumbered or
whether she had tainted again. He
did not dare to stop to find out, his
strength was almost spent; in this last
effort the strain upon his muscles
was almost as great as it had been in
