Robert q. lngersoll's Eloquent Appre-
citation Of the Qualities Of the
Center Sex.

It takes 400 men to make an en-
campment, but one woman can make
home. / not only admire woman as
the most beautiful object ever created.
but / reverence her as the redeeming
glory OF humanity, the sanctuary Of all
virtues, the pledge of all perfect quail
ties Of heart and head. It is not just
nor right to lay the suns of men at the
feet Of women. It Is because women
are SO much better than men that
their faults are considered greater. A
mans desire is the foundation Of his
love. but woman's desire Is born OF
her love. The one thing In this world
that is constant. the one peak that
rises above all clouds. the one win
dow ID which the light forever burns.

ouench is Moman's love. II rises to

GOODNESS nor neglect, hardness nor

love is the perfume of the heart. This

His promptness had bred mcmen-
tary panic. then Slosson's buli-like
voice began to roar commands; but in
that brief instant OF surprise and
shock Darlington had found. and with
drawn the wooden peg that fastened
the cabin door. He had scarcely done
this when Slossoh came tramping aft
supported by the three men.
Calling to Betty and Hannibal to es-
cape in the skin which was towing
astern the Kentuckian rushed toward
the bow. At his back he heard the
door creak on its hinges as it was
pushed open by Betty and the boy,
and again he called to them to escape

had grown steadily and from beneath
the wide-fiung branches of the trees

He felt the river snatch at the keel

and saw the blunt bow swing of to

But what he did not see was a big
muscular hand which had thrust itself
out of the impenetrable gloom and
clutched the side OF the keel boat Co

feet babel of voices, high-pitched and
shriIl.
"Sho'-I bet it's him! Shots I'm

Darlington cast hurried glance in
the direction Of these sounds. There
between the boat and the shore the
dim outline OF a raft was taking shape.
1t was now canopied by a wealth OF
pale gray smoke that faded from be-
fore his eyes as the darkness lifted.
The light Increased. From the hat
stone hearth of the raft assembled a
tall column of flame which rendered
visible six pigmy figures, tow-headed
and wonderfully vocal, who were toll

light showed more than this. 1t

What have we between here and

best, he felt, not to give Slosson an
opportunity to ask questions.
1T narrows considerably. pardner,
but It's a straight course" said Slos-
son. BLACK in yonder. amt it," he
added, nodding ahead.
The shores drew rapidly together;
They were leaving the lake-like ex-
panse behind. In the silence. above
the rustling of the trees, Darlington
heard the first fret of the river against
its bank. Slosson yawned prodigious-
~.
q reckon you amt needing met"
he said.
Better go up in the bow and get
some sleep" advised Darlington, and
Slosson, nothing Ioath, clambered
down from the root OF the cabin and
stumbled forward.
The ceaseless murmur of the rush
1 ing waters grew In the stiffness as
ing yellow food, and the beat of the
Kentucklan,s pulse quickened. Would
he find the raft there? He glanced
back over the way they had come
The dark ranks OF the forest walled
on the clearing, but across the water
a dim point of light was visible. He
fixed It's position as somewhere near
the head OF the bayou. Apparently 1t
was a lantern, but as he looked a
ruddy glow crept up against the sky
line.
From the bow Bunker had been OBJ

Bunker pointed without speaking.

son, addressing himself to Caring

rife.
That's what I'm trying to make
OUT answered Darlington.
He'll" cried Slosson. and tossed
his gun to his shoulder.
What seemed to be a breath OF
