lilies. His mother had turned from
his stricken father to regard them, and
over her face had come that tender,
confident smile the little lad had so
loved. Consider the lilies" she had
told the man, they toll not, neither
do they spin, yet Solomon in all his
glory was not arrayed like one of
these" And his father had taken her
into his arms with a great sob, while
the little lad had looked on, under

Easter lily? Or had it come into the
house of God with him with a ray of
moonlight? Or, was the voice in his
brain alone-born of memories? He
could not tell, and it did not matter.
When he had laid her away twenty
years ago he had not laid away the
influence that had been hers all
through his young life, her faith in
him, her smile. nor the memory of
certain day when he had been gradu-

became the dominating motive of his
life: tonight when the thirst for lux

of the pew in front Of him. his eyes
fixed on the lily-banked altar. Then
he squared his shoulders even as he

eastern sky the money was safe in the

that was not all. The admonition had
a familiar ring which was not of the
voice alone, nor yet of some long-for-
gotten reading. The words we're
borne in upon his senses now as in
that long-ago yester-year, when, as a
little lad, he had sat in the living

BODY Objects to Taxation of Dogs.

8ody Objects to Taxation Of Dogs.
Madison.-The assembly committee
on judiciary has placed its stamp
of disapproval on the Caldwell
bill for the taxation Of all dogs in the
state. This measure would impose
tax of one dollar annually on all male
and two dollars annually on female
dogs. 1t was advocated by the sheep
growers associations of the state, on
the ground that there viii be more
sheep grown in the northern part Of
the state if there were fewer dogs to
harass them.
By a close vote the assembly rescind-
ed the vote by which 1t killed the
linn bill and sent the measure to en-
grossment after an hours debate.
This prohibits private employment
agencies from making a charge on the
man seeking a job and compels this
fee to be paid by the employer. AS
semblyman Minkley claimed that in
certain localities some employers OF
labor go into arrangements with pri-
vate agencies to furnish a few days
work and divide the fee paid for OBJ
tanning the job Assemblyman I'll
lingson said that he employed many
men every winter in the lumber camps
and he did not think it was just to
shift this burden on the man Offering

tionless body on the floor and recoiled,
Mortified.
Elaine noticed some spots on her
hands, and, seeing that they were
stained by the blood of Long Sin,
wiped the spots off on her handker-
chief, dropping it to the floor.
UGH" exclaimed a cultural voice
behind them.
1t was the servant who had come
in.
"You-kill him-with knife?" insin-
uated the Chinese
Elaine was dumb. The servant did
not wait for an answer, but hastily
opened the hall door.
To Elaine it seemed that something
must be done quickly. A moment and
all the house would be in uproar.
Instead, he placed his finger on his
lips. "Quick-no word" he said, lead
ing the way to the hall door, "and-oh
you must not leave that-it will be
a clue" he added, picking up the
bloody handkerchief and pressing il
into Elaine's hand.
They quickly ran out into the hall
"Go-quick!" he urged again, "and
hide the handkerchief in the bag Let
no one see it,"
He shut the door. AS they hurried
away Elaine breathed sigh of relief
They had reached the street. Afraid
to run, they hurried as fast as they
could until they turned the first cor
ner.
They pressed each others hands and
parted.
Meanwhile in the front room Long

Thank you" she said simply as
she left the laboratory.
Craig went to work abruptly without
a word.
On the laboratory table he placed his
splendid microscope and several cases
of slides, as well as innumerable mi
cro-photographs. He had been work
ing for some time when he looked up.
1T is dogs blood-not human blood, -
he said simply, but what's the game
back of all this-that's the main ques-
ton now"
1t was not much later that Elaine
received a second visit from Mary.

They rose and Mary preceded her,
eager to get away from the house.
At the door, however, Elaine asked
her to wait while she ran back on

Our telephone rang in the middle

Of our conversation on blood crys-

1t was Elaine asking Craigs ad-

"They have offered to hush the
thing up for ten thousand dollars" she
said in muffled voice.
She seemed bent on doing it, and no
amount of argument from him could
stop her. She simply refused to &C.

told her she had seen and done.
Then wait for half an hour" he
answered, without arguing further.
''You can do that without exciting
suspicion. Then go with her to her
hotel and hand her over the money"
"All right-I'll do it," she agreed.
What is the hotel?"
Craig wrote on a slip of paper what
she told him-"Room 500, Hotel La
Coste."
Hastily he threw on his street coat.

brace and bit, Walter, he said.
I did so. When / returned I saw
that he had placed the detectascope
and some stuff in a bag. He showed
in the brace and bit also.
Come on-hurry!" he urged.
We must have made record time in
getting to the La Coste. 1t was an or
nate place, where merely to breathe
was expensive. We entered, and by
some excuse Kennedy contrived to
get past the vigilant bell-hops. We
passed the telephone switchboard and
entered the elevator, getting off at
the fifth floor
With hasty glance up and down
the corridor, to make sure no one was
about, Kennedy came to Room 500,
then passed to the next room, 511,
opening the door with skeleton key.
Quickly Craig went to the door
which led to the next room. It was,
of course, locked also. He listened a
moment carefully. Not sound. Quick
ly, with an exclamation of satisfac'
ton, he opened that door also and
went into 500.
This room was much like that in
which we had already been. He
opened the hall door.
Watch here, Walter" he directed
Let me know at the slightest alarm.
Craig had already taken the brace
and bit from the bag and started to
bore through the wall in Room 511
selecting spot behind picture of a
Spanish dancer-a spot directly back
of her swapping black eyes. He fin
ished quickly and inserted the detecta

up the pieces of plaster on the floor
