II was one Of her old style faints,
but the minister had not the howl-
edge Of Hiram and was scared half
to death. He didn't beseech her to
live for his sake, however. She was
perfectly conscious and would have
heard his words. In due time she
was revived and managed to crawl
home, and she had to admit that she
had failed. She sat down and wrote
q poem about q maiden who drowned
herself when she found that her low
er scorned her love, and it was left
on the kitchen table as q guide to
brother Hiram. When he came in
to dinner at noon there was no din
ner. There was no Sarah Ann.
There was nothing but the broken-
hearted poem. He read it and then
went out to make inquiries. He
learned that Sarah had been seen
walking in the direction Of the river:
he followed after, while others took
other directions.
! Sarah was down there on the
tanks of the romantic river, hiding
among the willows. Some were
weeping willows, and some on the
hilarious order, but they offered her
shelter. Hiram's sharp eyes soon
found her out, however. She started
in on one Of her old faints as he
drew near and she saw that his jaw
was set, but he had q duty to per
form and he performed it. He
picked her up and flung her into
). the river. Then he hauled her ashore
. and repeated the performance. She
gasped and gurgled and shrieked
but in she went again. When she
had been flung in and hauled out
about q dozen times she really LOST
consciousness. It was perhaps bette1
that she did. Hiram finally desistet

cred by intercollegiate sport, shows
that athletics disclose no effect OF
shortening life. lie found few deaths
from heart disease and thereby eX-
ploded a theory that athletics often
caused organic heart weakness.
