Valuable Chinese Coins.

An American, who recently arrived
in Picking from the far interior OF Chi
ma, had with him when he reached Pc
king string of copper coins WITH
holes through the center such as he
had been using on his journey. The
whole string, two feet in length, was
deemed to be worth about ten or nj
teen cents, for the coins were only the
ordinary cash" in current use in the
province of Shensi, from which the
traveller came; but upon examination
by member of the American legation
who knows the Chinese language it
was found that some bore the marks
of emperors as far back as the year
2S4 B. c. On the string were cash
representing every reign since the be
ginning of the Ching dynasty, many
of the Ming dynasty, and even the
dynasties that precede the latter.

you know T.
Madge freed herself, but not angri-
ly. Burton, don't. How can you?"
And then she ran on alone up the
road toward the boarding house.
The next day Burton met Madge
again. She had regained her compos-
ure, and 80 had Burton. He was
ready to make clear to her that he
could support Hardy until he was
better II she would but marry him. He
started to explain.
Madge touched his arm ever SO
lightly. Burton" she said, and her
voice had never sounded SO sweet, Il
am sorry didn't tell you sooner. But
l had no idea, that you would think OF
saying what you have. Burton, didn't
you know, haven't you guessed, that
Hardy isn't my brother?"
The explanation followed in mono
syllables. 1t was harder than Madge
had expected to explain that Hardy
and she had been friends in the East
and had become engaged. Hardy had
no money and no family, only his own
wits to push his way in his law pro
fession. Then his illness had come,
the illness that would eventually have
killed him in the East. He had been
ordered West. She had decided to
20 with him, to work for him and to
nurse him as sister would have
done. Yes, they might have been
married, but Hardy did not wish it
till he knew he would recover. or
course, her friends had objected, but
she had come anyway, and Hardy. be-
ing helpless, had had to consent.
They had passed as brother and sis
ter. Now Hardys recovery was al
most accomplished. There was no
doubt of its completeness. In a few
more months he would be able to be-
gin work. In the autumn they would
i be married.
But you are not married? You are
free?" Burton was almost jubilant.
"Madge, you must love me. Madge,
you do"
Burton held her hands to his lips
and she made no resistance. "Madge,
you do love me. | know it.
She stopped in the half darkness
and looked steadily in his young
face.
! YES Burton. do love you. love
you better than anyone else in the
world. You are strong. You are
young, you have all the world
before you. Hardy has nothing but
me. Don't you see how hard it has
been for him-how it has CALLED him
how he has hated himself because
he has had to let me do this? But
! am the woman he loves, the woman
who promised to marry him. That
made it possible. That made our &C
ton iustifable. Burton, tell me you
understand"
And as Burton left Madge that eve
ming at the threshold of the boarding
house he took her hand in his for the
| last time.
"Madge." he said. "you are the no
blest woman | shall ever know

HE saved my life for you who love
me-" BODY had written to his parents.
Marian laughed softly when this was
read to her. There were tears rum
ming unrestrainedly down the cheeks
| Of the two women and the general
buried himself in the depths of the
daily paper.
! Soon everyone in the Malvery house
was dashing about preparing rooms
and putting fresh flowers in vases.
The general stood on the railway
platform. blowing his nose vigorously
and trying to look unaffected. when
two stalwart men in khaki and band
ages were swept into the embrace of
Marian and Mrs. Malvery. No one
said anything for long moment. The
general laid the arm the Indian mu-
tiny had left him across the shoulders
Of his SON Bobby looked up and
smiled into his fathers eyes over his
mothers head. Then the general Of
fered his hand to that other hero who
was Marian's brother. After that they
all burst into speech at once. The
tension was over.
Marian in her neat brown uniform,
led the way and stepped into the
drivers seat of the car. She smiled
! softly at her brother as his eyes
! opened wide. He had not known that
Marian was helping her country after
this fashion. She told him the story
as they spun along.
There are not many girls like you,
was all Dudley said
And that, naturally, was the exact
opinion Bobby Malvery held from the
moment of his arrival home. General
and Mrs. Malvery soon exchanged
! glances that suggested their having
discussed a probability. Bobby hat
done with startling swiftness and en-
ergy that which from the first they
had thought possible. He had faller
hopelessly in love with Marian as the
motor maid"
Il wonder whether I shall give the
bride away or be best man." Dude,
laughed one day while he was stroll
ing with General and Mrs Malver,
about the fading gardens. Bobby ant
Marian had gone off together for
short spin through the twilight Eng
lish lanes.
you are to be my second son, Dud
ley" Mrs. Malvery smiled and lai,
her hand affectionately on his un
bandaged arm.
I'VE have managed to pick up
rather jolly family" the old genera
chuckled happily.
Out in the motor car Bobby looke
blissfully into the shining eyes of tn
girl whose slim fingers were guidin
the car so firmly. His uninjured arr
had slipped closely about her waist.
We'll all be tremendously happy
my little motor maiden" he whis
pered, with his head against he
shoulder.
And the car chugged contentedly o.
!, through the winding, fragrant lanes.

love and DUTY
sy JANE OSBORN.

Burton Jones had come to the
Crossing fresh from his postgraduate
course in college. He was only twen-
ty-four, but in his big. rather loosely
jointed frame. in his kindly, large, ex-
pressive features, and in his direct de-
cisive way Of saying things, he
seemed much older. The day after
his arrival at the boarding house
he had noticed Madge.
Burton soon found out about Madge.
Everyone in Silver Cliff Crossings
knew about the Lathrops. She was
the secretary of the manager of the
works and supported herself and her
invalid brother on her hard-earned
wages.
Burton's first feeling for the inva-
lid was one of great sympathy. and.
as he looked at the large, wellpropor
toned figure spread out in the sun
light on the veranda of the boarding
house on Sunday morning. he felt q
great pity for the man who was forced
to live on his sisters earnings.
Before long, Burton became friend
ly with the Lathrops. and as a means
of helping Madge he spent hours with
Hardy, talking to him and cheering
him. Often Madge had to work
evenings with the mine manager. and
then she would knock at Burton's
door and ask him to come and spend
the evening with Hardy.
1t was spring, and Hardy was show
ing marked signs of improvement, and
with the let-up in anxiety, Madge's
nerve was being shaken. Yes, Burton
could do it now. He would have to do
it. 1t was killing him to see Madge
shaving any longer.
Purposely he walked toward the OF.
flee of the mine works the next day
in order to walk home with Madge
At first they talked Of Hardys i'm
| provement.
+, You have been so good, Burton.
she said, letting her hand rest lightly
on his arm for second.
Burton for an instant felt contempt
for the helpless brother. He longed
to shield Madge, to take her away
from the mine works forever.
Some time, perhaps, | will tell
you about Hardy, and then you will
know how hard it is"
Burton felt no desire to talk about
Hardy, and he looked away from
Madge as she spoke.
Some time. some time began Bur
ton, I'll tell you why | have done
what l have done for Hardy" he
turned to her almost brutally. "Yol

1t was dusk in the valley, and Bur

his hands and pressed down upor
them as he looked in her face. "Madg'

MOTOR MAID MARIAN
BY HOPE AlNSlEE.

The morning was fresh and fragrant
with the odor Of ripening fruit Cen
eral Malvery sighed as he realized that
he could no longer take his daily drive
through the glorious country roads.
His only son had joined the army and
gone to the front and without Bobby
to drive the car to the station and re-
turn home with it the general found
his motor useless. He wished he had
been able to run the car himself The
Indian mutiny Of long ago had robbed
him of his right arm.
A few minutes later he looked up
with smile. THE women are COM
ing forward in this crisis with great
spirit" he said. Here is young girl
advertising for a position as chauffeur
and gardener. Says she would like to
take the place of a son who has gone
to fight for his country" The general
looked up wonderingly at his wife.
THAT young lady would be treas
ure. Is the salary too awfully larger"
Mrs. Malvery questioned hopefully.
She asks no salary, bless her." re-
piled the general. "She asks only
housing and feeding"

So it was that General Malvery and
his wife became the possessor of a

to designate her calling.

she told her employers while she, too,
tried to hide the tragedy in her brave
smile. He is all the family | have,
Life was intolerable without occupa-

She was a slim, pale girl whose
eyes shone with determination and
hope. Otherwise Marian Wells had
nothing to compel admiration. Her
hands, too. were slim and white. The
marvel was that they were so useful

Marian had been shown the portrait
of Bobby Malvery and. as all women
did. she had freely expressed her ad
miration for the clean-cut, debonail
private in the Irish Guards.

Guards" she said. 1T would be
strange if Dudley and your son should

There was no opportunity to write
