AS WHISTLE BLEW
BY HAROLD CARTER.

Five minutes after the whistle had
blown old Peters arrived home from
the mill He came softly into the cot
tage and flung himself down in the
large imitation leather instalment
chair. From the kitchen came the
smell of cooking. Presently his wife
looked into the room.
Are you home. Michael" she asked.
That was the invariable greeting.
For nearly forty years Michael Peters
had worked in the big mill 1t had Ia
ken the best of his life and strength.
and, though he held a position as fore
man there, and earned fair wages, he
had of late begun to conceive an un-
utterable loathing for the place.
His life was regulated by the whis-
tie. It called him from his bed, called
him to work, called him to his lunch,
and dismissed him with a blast at six
o'clock In the evening. There had
been time. many years before, when
he had had ambitions; but these had
long ago been ground out of him In the
remorseless machinery OF that con-
sumner of men.
His only son, Donald, was to enter
the mill next month. The boy had
finished his course at the high school.
Old Michael had put him through that,
at sacrifice which only his wife and
himself understood. He had hoped to
ft him for something better, but of
late Michael Peters had begun to
realize that his time of working abil.
lty was running short. He would not
be able to work in the mill more than
few years longer. And Donald must
take his place to earn the family In
come when he dropped out.
How he loathed the mill! It seemed
each day that be could hardly drag
his weary limbs to work. And Donald
must look forward to a life of this /!
The boy was cut out for finer things.
Michael" said his wife that eve.
ming, I'm thinking Donald has q
sweetheart in town."
WHAT" shouted Michael. WHO is

THE Farrelly girl"
] Peters knew her by sight; one OF
the new hands in the machine room
She was a commonplace girl enough
pretty in an anaemic way, just an or
binary mill girl neither attractive nor
the reverse. There we're a thousand
such as she in the town.

Is he?" said Michael scornfully
Hasn't he the wits to profit by his IA
theirs experience? Now, woman,
wasn't meaning you. You've made me
a good wife. but to think Of Donald go
ing the same round, wearing out his
life in the mill. and a wife to take care
of."
Katherine wept quietly. She. too
had hoped 1t might be possible TO put

Donald through college. But that was
before old Michaels strength began to
fail.
a month later Donald took his place
In the mill. Sullenly acquiescent. he
took up the burden of supporting the
home. The engagement had been an.
nounced. Old Michael when the girl
came to the house, took her chin in
his hands and looked into her eyes.
do you understand what marriage
is going to mean to you?" he asked
grimly. THE never ceasing toll, the
struggle to keep things going? Have
you looked round and seen the other
millhands' wives?"
Tears OF dismay came into the girls
eyes. With muttered apology Mi
chael let her go. Everybody knew he
was queer; It was no use trying to ex-
plain an old mans pessimism to youth.
Michael" exclaimed his wife one
morning. when he hurried home for
his lunch, there's a gentleman wait
ing in the parlor for you"
For me?" inquired MIichael. who
Is he?"
"He says he's lawyer from Phila.
1elphia," Katherine answered, and Mi
chael went in. The visitor. a sprucely
dressed, middle-aged man, came for
ward and shook hands briskly.
you are Mr., Michael Peters?" he
asked.
81 am, sir" answered Michael.
what was the name of the brother
you left in New York some thirty
years ago?" asked the lawyer.
my brothers name was Phil sir

"He is dead" said the lawyer "Anc

Michael sat down feebly. You're

No Room for Street Cars.

The city of Canton, China. with a
million and half inhabitants, has no
place for a street railway system,
Canton is one of the wealthiest and
most progressive of all the Chinese
cities. and =" II would very much
like n modern street railway system.
But the space within the ancient walls
and Notifications is so crowded that
many of the so-called streets are but
narrow alleys, not even wide enough
for two sedan chairs to pass. There
Is no room for horses and carriages
and certainly not sufficient space for
a narrow-gauge railway. But the Chi
nese engineers are not so easily baf-
fled, and Canton will have its electric
railway. 1t is planned to tear down
the ancient stone walls and fortifca-
tions which encircle the entire city.
The material from these walls will be
used TO fill some OF the old canals
which traverse the city. Il three-track
belt line will be constructed on the
site OF. the old wall, completely en-
circling the city, and the old canal
sites will be used for feeder lines.

I'll take 1t first, to see what IL looks

lawyer answered.
Two days later the old man sat star.

placed upon the table. Opposite him

Katherine was looking Mt him with
a tender smile upon her lips that he
had not seen in many year.

to him and putting her arms round
him, Il know what's in your mind"
What is 1t, them" he growled

she answered. Michael, dear, we're

Michael.
IT'S a college course for the boy
and maybe enough left over to start a

doesn't 1t make you happier to think
that we can give Donald his chance
after all?"
Il guess you're right, my DEAR" old
Michael answered. Il can make my
old legs keep moving for few years
longer"
At six o'clock next morning Michael
leaped out of bed when the whistle
blew, as gaily as a boy.

STOPS JUST SHORT OF DEATH
Russian Scientist Asserts He Can
Freeze the Human Body and Aft
erward Restore Animation.

Whether 1t will be possible in the
future for a man to place his family
in state of anabiosis so that they will
be no expense to him while he happens
to be out of job or in need of divert
ing his income from its usual course
of expenditure for limited period is
question that arises in connection
with the experiments of Professor
Bachmetief, the Russian scientist, in
the extension of anabiosis to the high
er organisms. e..r
Anabiosis, q state in which all vital
fStnctions are suspended without occa-
sioning death, has been known for
about 200 years, according to the
Scientific American, but only in the
lower organisms. II Professor Bach
metiefs experiments are successful 1t
will be shown that the higher organ
isms including men, are also capable
CT entering into this state. Both In the
world OF science and in that OF mate
rial affairs the successful outcome of
these experiments would be revolution
airy. Professor Bachmetief is conduct

king them of practical use in the
treatment of tuberculosis, and he also
expects that they will be of great value
In devolping a process whereby ami
mails could be transported to consider
able distance and restored to life
whenever required. This would be OF
immense value in the markets OF the
world.
Professor Bachmetief first expert
mented on insects and found that while
the .humors of insect bodies freeze at
five degrees centigrade. and all vital
functions become impossible at this
temperature, death occurs only at ten
degrees. Between the temperature at
which the vital functions cease and the
lethal temperature is the state of ana
biosis-the intermediary condition be-
tween life and death. After consid-
cradle time, Professor Bachmetief
found. it was possible to restore ami
mails to life from this state by grad
ual rise in temperature.

At the Play.

A young lady went to see a play one
evening. She was separated from her
companion, another young lady, by two
rows, and, thinking that the man next
to her was alone, she decided to ask
him to change seats with her friend,
so that they would not be separated.
With sweet, demure smile, there
fore, she laid her hand lightly on the
mans arm and said:
Il beg your pardon, but you are
alone, are you not?"
The man, stout, red faced chap,
put his hand up to his mustache and
whispered, out of the corner of his
mouth
Not, a word, kid; the wife's next TO

From the following story It would
seem that the cadets at West Point
are not the only persons who some
times find taps and the sunrise gun
annoying.
The wife of one of the officers
there had colored maid who was
giving satisfaction and was apparent
ly well pleased with her position.
Mrs. Brown was therefore amazed
when Sallie came to her and told her
she could not work there any longer.
