sob--With a mans anguish and the abandon of a little child.
 The days dragged by, heavy-weighted with @ sense of prison chains.
 Norman had boasted that he still had his work. But he could not write He could not think. He could only fever. ishly wait for the letter that he had asked her not to write
 Yet not until two weeks had passed and he knew at last that she had taken him at his word, did he realize to the full measure of bitter disappointment how much he had counted upon one more letter from her.
 The ast-bouud overland was due in an hour, and he was going on it.
 He stood on the station platform waiting-trembling from excitement and haste of packing, every now and again casting a stealthy glance over his shoulder as though afraid of being watched.
 With the caution of the real pris. oner breaking jail, he had only bought a ticket to nearby point
 The kind-hearted meddlesomeness of his neighbors, the tyranny of the doctor under whose thumb he had been so many months, were capable of go- ing any lengths of Interference when it came to q matter of what they con sidered his own good.
 A whistle sounded A flare of light swept the gathering night from the track He snatched up his suit-cases- imBatiently dropped them again. The locomotives headlight flashed from the wrong direction. He had forgotten that the west-bound train passed ten Jr nutes before his own.
 The pufing engine paused for breath the usual short, hurried instant of en express. A black parallelogram of a trunk was tossed from the baggage car. The black figure of woman pas senger got of the Pullman.
 The express gave a creak forward rattled, rumbled, and roared into the awaiting blackness.
 The new arrival stood hesitating, a nervous, lostchild air about the slight, shadowy figure. Norman took a quick step to her assistance. The blurred light of the station lamp softly en- wrapped her.
 He started back, a cold fear clutch ing his heart. The breeding of the last hideous days had been too great a strain-his mind had suddenly given way!
 But the woman did not start back she ran toward him with a glad cry of:
 Norman"
 It was not the haliucination of a nervous breakdown It was Nan. Nan her dear flesh and blood self. Nan in Eden. Nan or the platform beside him. Nan in his arms.
 And you are really glad that I'm here?" she tremulously laughed, when

For Those Who Wish to Reduce.

Do you always take every opportu nity to walk when you can? If it is matter of several blocks, do you take Q car when it is possible? Take every opportunity to walk but walk as if you really enjoyed it; put some energy into this exercise. Really make 1t an exercise. Do not eat more than one starchy food at a meal, drink plenty of water, but between meals, and, above all eat enough to allay hunger, but stop there; do not con tinue as if you were never going to get another meal instead of one quite as heavy in another four or five hours. Another thing. sleep with plenty of fresh air circulating in your sleeping room and if you are very stout do with just sufficient sleep, and above all omit the nap in the middle of the day.

MUSIC IN WAR
A Powerful Asset To The
Russian Army

Ivan Narodny, a writer in the
current number Of "Musical Amer
ica," illustrates the power Of music
by citing the successes of the cars
army. The writer declares the
cars soldiers refuse to fight with
out music. Deprived of this in
spring force, they would be dull,
cowardly, brutal and inefficient.
From music they absorb a magic
power of endurance and forget the
suferings and mortality. Napol-
con added the effect Of Russion
music to the rigors Of a Russian
winter as the cause of his defeat.
Mr.. Narodny quotes from the great
generals notebook this entry:
The weird barbaric tunes Of those
beastly Cossack regiments simply
infuriated the half-starved Musco-
vites to the maddest rage, and they
wiped out the very cream OF the
army"
Mr.. Narodny speaks of the size
of the musical contingent as fol-
lows:
"The army bands Of Germany,
Italy and France are insignificant
Institutions as compared with the
Russian bands, for in the former
cases they are but snowy luxurles
of the parade, while in the latter
music is considered vital neces-
sity. There is not single regl-
ment or battalion of the Russian
regular army that does not possess
its regimental band or orchestra.
can average Russian band or
orchestra has from forty to fifty
musicians; the orchestra OF certain
guard regiments contains sixty. AS
there are over thousand Russian
regiments, exclusive of the navy
and military schools, the army OF
Russian military musicians is about
tfty thousand men. If one adds te
this the twenty to forty muslca
pupils of regiment orchestra
school and the musical companies
Of battle-ships and various cade'
schools, the number reaches one
hundred thousand, which is twlc'
tn esize of the United States stand
ing army. Each musical compan!
has conductor and his assistant
both being graduates of one OF tn
national conservatories OF music.
"These 100000 uniformed mus
lclans are maintained for the sol
purpose to provide every regimen
with all the necessary musical en-
tertainment; but they cost IN
treasury big sum of money annu
aally The so-called n,usykdtnoy'
