had not been that light engine in pur.
suit-as Barcus firmly believed it must
be-loaded to the guards with Trine's
INSCRIPTIONS hirelings!
No telling when they might catch
up!
The fear Of this last catastrophe
worked together with his fears of Ju.
dith to render that night a ~sleepless
n for Barcus. He spent it in a chair
hence he could watch both the door
to the compartment Judith had chosen
for her W formerly Marrophat's
quarters). and the endless ribbons of
steel that swept beneath the tracks.
But nothing happened. He mapped
uneasily from time to time, waking
with a start of fright, but always to
find nothing amiss. Ever Judith
stopped behind that closed door, and
ever the track behind was innocent of
the glare OF a pursuing headlight.
Nor did anything untoward mark the
progress of the morning-unless. in.
deed, Judith's protracted sessions
with her father behind the closed
door of the drawing room were to be
counted ominous.
Ever since lunch-time the girl had
been closeted with her father; Barcus
had been getting some w~ell-earned and
sorely-needed rest in his quarters:
Alan standing his watch on the obser-
walton platform, in company with
Rose; and the train booming along
through an uncouth wilderness Of arid
mountains, barren mesas, and sun
smitten flats given over to the desolate
genius Of sagebrush.
Whatever had been the tenor of the
communication between father and
daughter, Judith eventually emerged
from the drawing room in an ominous
temper. Barcus, coming drowsily
away from his compartment at the
same time, was Jared wide awake by
sight of the foreboding c~ountenance
she wore; and after a moment of doubt
followed her back to the lounge at the
rear Of the car.
He got there in time to see her at
rigid standstill, staring steadfastly at
the two figures SO close together on
the observation platform. But on
his appearance Judith shook herself
together, snatched up a magazine, and
plunged wrathfully into an easy chair,
burying her nose between the pages Of
the publication with every indication
of deep interest in it's text.
Mr.. Barcus, however, had learned
the lesson Of bitter experience to the
effect that the outward bearing Of
Miss Judith Urine was no sure index
to her inward humor-unless, that is,
1t might be taken to indicate the d.
rect contrary Of it's semblance;
though wen this was no reliable rule.
Reminding himself Of this, he there
fore invented a morbid interest in an
other magazine-round the edge Of
which he kept a wary eye upon the
young woman.
For all her evaporation, Judith con.
tanned herself longer than might have
been expected. Her continued show
of placidity, indeed, lulled Barcus into
a dangerous feeling of security. Per-
suaded that she meant to behave, he
gradually ceased to watch her as mar
rowly as at first, and lost himself in a
morose reverie whose subject was the
seemingly permanent mourning into
which he had plunged his face and

truding from the window of the spe-
cial's engine, one on either side.
At a venture, she snatched off her
coat and waved 1t wildly in the air.
An arm answered the signal from
one window Of the pursuing locomo-
tive.
M~arrophat, of course!
She turned and peered ahead. The
freight was approaching a trestlc that
spanned a wide and shallow gully.
So much the better!
Dropping down again between the
cars, she set herself to solve the prob
lem of uncoupling the caboose.
In this she was successful just as
the last car rolled out on the trestle
Its own impetus carried the cabooee
10 the middle of the trestle before it
stopped.
AS this happened, Alan and Barcus,
already warned Of an emergency by
the slowing down of the car, and for
some time alive to the fact that the
Specldl was again In pursuit., ledpeu
out upon the ties and helped Rose to
alight.
Already the last of the freight was
whisking off the ~trestle, its crew thus
far unconscious of their loss.
And behind them the special was
plunging forward at undated speed.
There was no time to execute their
plan of the first desperate instant-to
run along the ties to safety on the
solid earth: the distance was too
great; they could not possibly make it,
With common impulse the two men
glanced down to the bottom Of the
gully, then looked at each other with
eyes Informed by common inspiration.
Barcus announced in a breath:
Thirty feet-not more"
Alan replied: "Can you hold the
weight Of the two of US for half a min
ute?"
Barcus shrugged: II al try. We
might as well-even II I can't"
While speaking. he was lowering
himself between the ties.

THE fewer ornaments the better
in housewives workshop" is the
text OF another lesson of this little
exhibit. Corners are rounded; sur
faces are plain: there are as few
holdings as possible to catch dirt
which must be removed with so much
effort. One feature Is table with
legs that may be raised or lowered
to suit the height Of the worker.
The refrigerator, as 1t stands,
would never In the world recommend
itself to any thrifty housewife, for
one part of 1t is lined with solid
porcelain, another with enameled
steel, another with zinc painted with
enamel paint, and another with un-
painted zinc. However, this refrig-
orator breaches sermon of Its own,
for the advantages and disadvantages
Of each particular lining are ex-
planned In labels attached. Each
woman who reads may look for what
suits her own refrigerator, and
housewives from the north or from
the south, from a high, dry region
or a low, moist region may each de-
eide which feature Is most adaptable
for her own use and pocketbook.

This kitchen is not q model In the
sense that every housewife is to try
to make hers as nearly like it as pos
sible. but Is rather composite of
many possible model kitchens which
is designed to illustrate various es-
sentlal principles of convenient kitch-
en- arrangement. The American
housewife, for whose special benefit
the model has been constructed, must
Judge from 1t what appliances and
improvements in arrangement will
best fit her peculiar household needs
and those of her purse.
One general idea emphasized by

bound kitchen is that the size Of the
ordinary kitchen should be small
rather than large If the room Is to be
used only for the preparation of the
meals. 1t should be as compact as
possible to save travelling back and
forth. The stove. table, and sink
should be as near together as is con-
venient, and the distances to supplies
and the dining-room OF pantry should
be short. On the floor of the model
