there and secure lodging for few cents
night. And, in order to make their
business pay, the keepers of this sort OF
''hotel' felt required to get in as many
guests" as it is possible of single
night. Small individual returns must be
offset by large number OF such re-
turns to make paying aggregate.
Hence, the proprietor of this place was
going on that principle and he had gath
cred in l7S transients for the night, and
they were slowed away in manner to
allow room for newcomers at any time
during the night. That such large
number could be slowed away in an ordi
nary-sized building of only five floors
may be considered remarkable; but the
wonder at that is nothing to the amaze
ment which follows when one is informed
that the Boston health board regulations
allow 257 human beings to be packed
away for night in a building no larger
than this Arcadia "hotel." The keeper
of this hotel, then, was not exceeding his
legal rights; indeed, he was well within
his rights as far as the health board
regulations were concerned. He had only
IT'S guests" whereas he was entitled
to have 257. However, the conditions
for escape were entirely inadequate al
belt there may have been enough cubic
inches of air to carry the occupants

tons health regulations ought to be
over-ruled by some human safety regu.
lations which will forbid the imprison-
ment of such large number of people
in what really is nothing short of FIRE
trap. And we doubt not there are
great many cities which are equally as
lax in allowing such packing away of
human beings. 1t is a disgraceful con
dition.

Wednesday morning sent shudder
through the newspaper readers as the
details of the terrible scenes were laid
before them; and at once the thought
arose whether the building was ade-
quately provided with stairways and
fire-escapes for such situation as de-
veloped in the early hours of the morn
ing. The unspoken question was an
swered by the statements following sub
sequent investigation that the building,
besides its stairways in the front part
of the building, had tire-escapes in the
rear. Moreover, it was not a high build
ing, as height of buildings is registered
in the large cities nowadays, it having
only five floors. Ordinarily the stair
ways and fire-escapes would have been
sufficient for building of that size and
height. But there We're other than ordi

In the IA stand-pat municipalities of
Massachusetts on the liquor question, we
notice that Quincy stood patter, so to
speak, for the no-license regime, the vote
for non-sale being almost double that
of the other side. Public sentiment in
the Granite city Of Massachusetts, ought
to be strong enough, therefore, to put
down most of the Illicit sales during
the year to come. That is the theory
of the thing, at any rate, and it re-
quires only little practice to carry out
the theory.

with every fibre Of his physical being,
he loved this woman.
1t would be idle to deny that, i'm
possible to disguise the facts, but in
the melting pot of passion the pre-
ponderant ingredient was mental and
spiritual; and just because higher and
holier things predominated, he held
her in his heart sacred thing. Love
is like rose: the material part is the
beautiful blossom; the spiritual factor
is the fragrance which abides in the
rose jar even after every leaf has fad
ed away, or which may be expressed
from the soft petals by the hard cir
cumstances of pain and sorrow until
there is left nothing but the lingering
perfume of the flower.
His body trembled if she laid a
hand upon him, his soul thirsted for
her; present or absent he conjured
before his tortured brain the sweet
ness that inhabited her breast. He
! had been clearsighted enough in an

sighted nor coherent in thinking OF
the present. He worshiped her, he

to her happiness, she could have
killed him, smiling at her. Rode she

CHAPTER XIV.
The Mans Heart.

Now, love produces both happiness
and unhappiness, but on the whole I
think the happiness predominates, for
love itself il it be true and high is
its own reward. Love may feel itself
unworthy and may shrink even from
the unlatching OF the shoe lace of the
beloved, yet 1t joys in its own exist
ence nevertheless. OF course its
greatest satisfaction is in the return,
but there is a sweetness even in the
despair of the truly loving.
Enid Maitland, however, did not
have to endure indifference, or fight
against passion which met with no
response, for this man loved her with
q love that was greater even than
her own. The moon, in the trite aphor-
ism, looks on many brooks, the brook

self from the hundreds of men she
knew, was the greater; in many years
he had only seen this one woman.
Naturally she should be everything to

body like Enid Maitland. Every ar
gument which had been exploited to
show why she should love him could
be turned about to account for his
passion for her. They are not necess-
airy, they are all supererogatory, idle
words. To him also love had been
born in an hour. 1t had flashed into
existence as if from the fiat of the
Divine.
Oh, he had fought against it. Like
the cremites of old he had been
scourged into the desert by remorse
and another passion, but time had
done it's work. The woman he first
loved had ministered not to the spir'
itual side of the man, or if she had
so ministered in any degree it was be.

glamour of inexperience and youth
During those five years Of solitude, OF
study and of reflection, the truth had
gradually unrolled itself before him
Conclusions vastly at variance with
what he had ever believed possible
as to the woman upon whom he had
first bestowed his heart, had got into
his being and were in solution there
this present woman was the precipitan'
which brought them to life. He knew
now what the old appeal of his wife
had been. He knew now what tn

The dark face of his wife rose be-

given him all that she could. He re-
membered how she had pleaded with
him that he take her on that last and

every time he was in her presence he
longed to sweep her to his heart and
crush her in his arms and bend her
head back and press lips of fire on
her lips.
But honor and pride, held him back.
How long would they continue to ex-
arcise dominion over him? Would
the time come when his passion ris-

soul, beat them down and sweep them
away?

had long since got beyond this. Had

weakness that fine art of conCealment
which man has never mastered. She
never let him see what she thought of

tainty, would he control himself then?
At first he had sought to keep out
of her way, but she had compelled
him to come in. The room that was

that he had known Kirkby which was
