In tho zenana Of tho royal palace
there was woman. tall. 1.-the, with

brown as the husk Of water chestnut.
On her bare ankles were gem.in.
crusted anklets, on her arms bracelets
of hammered gold, round her neck a
rope Of pearls and emeralds and ru.
bies and sapphires. And still she was
not happy.
From time to time her fingers
strained at the roots of her glossy
black hair and the whites of her great
eyes gllstened. = She bit her lips to
keep back the sobs crowding in her
throat. She pressed her hands to

leaned against the wall, her face hid:

cheeks against the cool marble OF the
lattice.
Human nature is made up, of con.
traries. Why. when we have. had the
courage coolly to plan murder, or to
aid or suggest It, why must We be
troubled with remorse? More thar
this, why must we battle against silly
impulse to tell the first we meet what

him. and knew that he, loved her not,

HEART CURRENTS

IT has been definitely proved that when
I human muscle contracts an electric cur
rent flows in it. The positive end is the
passive end, and the negative the active.
AS a muscle contracts by means of a con-
tractual wave, and as when this wave
passes the median line of the muscle the
active end becomes passive, and vice versa,
so the current reverSeS in direction.
Now, the heart is big muscle, and con-
tracts at every beat. So if we can attach
a wire to the base of the heart and one to
the apex, and connect the two by galvano
meter ian electric current detector), we
shall get part of the current through it. The
current will be an alternating current. This
has now been actually done by connecting
with the right hand Corresponding to the
base of the heart) and the left foot (corre-
spending to the apex of the heart).
The main facts in the case have been
known for twenty-five years; but the appE-
cation has arrived only with the invention
of Einthoven's string galvanometer, an in
strument so delicate that it can vibrate
many times a second, and by means of which
the actual picture of the quality of an alter
mating current can be made. The recording
part of the device is a tiny mirror attached
to the vibrating wire, from which spot of
light is reflected on a moving Photographic
film. In this form it is called an oscillo-
graph. So record may be made of nor
NAL heart movement, and then one of dis
eased hearts movement and the two COM
pared. 1t will eventually be possible to
take picture of this action and tell by the
character of the curve the particular part
that is out of order The study of this phase
of medicine is called electrocardiography.

Strengthened up. Instantly the air was torn
evolent ecstasy. Jose's trembling finger
stiffened for one last shot, and the truce
bearer who, with shout of glee at his sue
cess, had doubled down and started to run,
paid for his treachery. Again wounded, the
Indian rolled over on his side. On the
stones crawled the man who had once de-
rided the flag. To the Indian, who saw
everything through mist of pain, he ap-
peared to make many efforts to reach that
riddled emblem of his courtry's faith and
honor, and then slowly to draw it down.
Weakly he loosened it, weakly he buried
his face in its shot-torn folds, and weakly
he thrust it to rest against his breast. Then,
said lose, he turned his eyes toward him,
his faithful follower, smiled, tried to speak,
coughed pitifully with harsh, choking
sound, and lay very still, appearing to stare
at the sun-the sun whose pitiless, white
hot flame no longer hurt his eyes,
THE Major paused, his quiet voice sound
ing for the instant as if smothered. He
made pretense to clear his throat, and threw
his second cigar out over the veranda rail.

HOW TO TELL COUNTERFEITs

The hand is quicker than the eye in detecting
fraudulent bank notes. The feel of the dis
tinctive paper used by the government is the first
warning signal that the money rendered is bad.
This paper Is distinctive not alone because Of the
introduction of silk fiber in the bill ITSELF but be-
cause of the treatment the stock receives in print
ing. The silk threads sometimes initiated by
pen-and-ink lines but these do not bear close ex.
animation The engraving has been the greatest
protection, for photoengraving fails to bring
out the proper color values, and retouching by
the craving tool makes the lines heavy and IT.
regular. Photography also fails in reproducing
the color of the SEAL which must be washed in
with water colors the black lines of the engraving
showing through in counterfeits. The most dan
gerous counterfeit is that in which genuine bill
of lower denomination is bleached out and false
plate showing high denomination placed upon
it. Here is a genuine bank bill. 1t has the feel"
The silk threads present. If the engraving is
fairly well done and the color of approximate
rectness it becomes a dangerous counterfeit, and
bankers are at once warned to be the watch
for it. In this connection the check letter often
comes into play All government notes print
