UNDER apple TREE
IN old ORCHARD
,Trespasser Was Not One Of the
"Seven SIeepers.'
BY CATHERINE cooPE.

Joan sped down through the rtot
of flowers to the foot of the garden
path; there, she stopped to catch hei
breath before continuing on througi!
the hawthorn lanes that led TO thu
fruit orchard. Her wide garden haG
had slipped from its nest Of spun
gold ringlets and her heart beat JOY
ously with the pulse of spring.
She stood for a moment poised ur-
der the old uncovered arch that ad-
mitted her to the orchard and drew:
in long breaths of delight. The grea-
gnarled trees were weighted will:
blossoms and the air was heavy with
the sweetness Of their perfume.
Joan made a swift dart and with
the agility of squirrel climbed into
the topmost branches Of her favoritea
tree. There she sighed happily, Their
laughed at the shower Of pink and
white petals that her ascent brough,
down.
"Now I am monarch of all l sur
vey," she told herself gleefully, and
settled herself in the secure seat the
gardener had made for her.
Because their orchard was only c
sixteenth part Of the original orchard
that had been the pride of the one
time Lamberth estate, it was noe
walled in, but merely inclosed b.
hawthorn hedges. Joan regretted
that necessity had called for a diVi
sion of the property. yet she rejoiced
that the lot which her grandmother
had purchased possessed the most
beautiful tree in the entire orchard.
She gazed out over the vista o:
pink and white, and from her high
perch could see the various wind.nf
lanes that divided the properties
Suddenly she leaned forward. he:
eyes focused upon a figure that was
moving about among the private gar
dens.

quite still for moments at time, ap
parently gazing at the wonder of tie
orchard, but suddenly he would dart
toward a specific tree and make nu
merous circuits about its base.
Joan began to fear for his sanity
and for her own safety. Certainly
his actions were not those Of an
evenly balanced man. She felt rea
sonably sure that neither an insane
nor a sane man would catch sight OF
her in her bower OF thick foliage, but
her heart beat rapidly.
"You never can tell" she told her.

With considerable trepidation she
watched the man drawing gradually
nearer and nearer to her retreat
Would he or would he not venture
within her grandmother's private or
chard? Joan felt reasonably sure now
that the trespasser was mentally III

"EIe is coming in" Joan caught q
sharp breath and drew up into the
branches of her tree. He seemed tc
catch sight Of the great tree the
moment he stood within the arch
and made straight for it. AS he came
forward, Joan again drew q Guicl;
breath. The man was undoubtedly
good to look at and his shoulders
were big and broad. He had taken
off his cap and the sun shore OIL a
head Of thick, red-browr hair. Joan's
grandmother had miniature OF a
man with just such a head of hair.
The girl in the tree-toD sighed,
partly because she felt strong de
sire to drop twigs down on the good
looking young fellow whose wander
ings had brought him into her garden.
But I do not dare" she told her
self and realized that her fear OF the
man had vanished. 81 suppose his
eyes are brown" Joan decided She
leaned forward cautiously aud watch

tree. Suddenly he threw himself down
on the wide bench that encircled the
tree.
"Discoyered!" she heard him NUT

a great knife from his pocket. He
brandiished it about and the blood in

JUST WHAT HORSEPOWER IS
Meaning of the Term Illustrated by It's Application to Power Used
 by Big Liner.

The average man is apt to speak very glibly of so many hundred or thousand horsepower. but it is ex- tremely doubtful whether one person in hundred has due appreciation of what the phrase really means.
 Calculating the strength of twelve men to be equal to one horsepower, if would require S40.000 men to pro- duce as much energy as the 10000 horsepower developed by the turbine machinery of a big Atlantic steam ship. Then, if the men were to work on the eight-hour-day system, those figures would give a total of 2,250,- 900, that being the number of men whose strength would be necessary to drive the vessel across the Atlantic ocean.-Harper's Weekly.

HOW JERUSALEM IS RULED
Municipality Composed of Ten Mem. bers, of Whom the President Alone
 Receives Salary.

The Jerusalem municipality is composed of ten members, half of whom are chosen every two years, the term of office being four years. From these ten the governor of the province of Jerusalem chooses one to be the president or mayor. The president is the only member reeeiv- ing salary, which is about $64 month.
 The members of the municipal council or commission are chosen by the whole city, but are apportioned in accordance with the different races and religions. Their duties are largely advisory, the president exer- cisiing most of the power. All prop erty owners who are Ottoman sub jects have a right to vote for the commissioners.
 The municipality does not concern itself with schools, courts, police, etc. (these are provided by the gov ernment of the province of Jerusa- lem its principal functions are the care, repair, lighting and cleaning of the streets sanitary and quaran-, tine inspection and oversight, in- cluding the public slaughter house: the maintenance of petroleum stor- age warehouse and municipal hos pital and other charitable institu- tions; market regulations, etc.
 AS the total budget is under S50,- 900 for city of about S0,000, it will be seen that the provincial gov- ernment handles most of the more important departments.

SHRUNkEN EGGS.

A'perfectly fresh egg, one that has just been dropped and is still warm, entirely fills it's shell. As it cools to the temperature of the air it con- tracts a little l.eeavtng small space at tGSS large end of the egg empty. As the egg ages this space increases in size, due to the escape of moisture from the egg through its shell. When the air space becomes quite enlarged, perhaps to almost half the shell, the egg Is known as shrunken; it has lost its flavor, is stale and unfit to eat. There are many stages of stalenes5 between a perfectly fresh a | rot ten egg, but shrunken one is the limit of eatableness.
