Zig the city for a trace of Ben
nett or the taxicab In which he had
fed.
Somehow, Kennedy suspected, in
stinctively, that Long Sin might give
a clue to BENEFITS whereabouts, and
a few moments later we were all on
our way in car to Long Sins house.
Though we did not know 1t, Long
Sin, at the moment when Kennedy
knocked at his door, was feeling in his
inside pocket to see that the map he
had taken from Bennett was perfectly
safe. Finding that he had 1t, he smiled
with his peculiar oriental guile. Then
he opened the door and stood for a
moment, silent

nedy.
Long Sin eyed us all, then, with
placid smile, said, Follow me. will
show YOU"
There was Bennett, seated rigidly in
the chair beside the table, from which
the Walls and cups, about which we
knew nothing, had been removed.
"How did it happen?" asked Ken
nedy.
'He came here" replied Long Sin,
with wave of his hand, "and before l
could stop him he did away with him
self"
well, we've got him." unused Ken
nedy, shaking his head sadly, adding
after a pause, "but he is dead"
Elaine, who had followed us down,
covered her eyes with her hands and
was sobbing convulsively. l thought
she would faint, but Kennedy led her
gently away into an upper room.
AS he placed her in an easy chair,
he bent over her, soothingly.
did you-did you-really-love
him?" he asked in low tone
Still shuddering, and with an eager
look at Kennedy, Elaine shook her
beautiful head.
Then, slowly rising to her feet, she
looked at Craig appealingly.
Forgive me-" murmured Elaine,
holding out her hand. Then she added
in a voice tense with emotion, Thank
you for saving me-"
Kennedy took her hand. For a mo-
ment he held it. Then he drew her to-
ward him, unresisting.

Pigeons That Swim.

The swimming of blue pigeons-the
familiar domestic birds the re-
markable sight reported to a Dutch
natural history journal. Some months
ago one of the doves was thrown into
the water in fight and rescued by hui
man aid, and since then they have be-
come more familiar with the water.
Pieces of bread noticed in shallow
places evidently tempted them at first.
Gaining courage, they soon learned to
swim, and just before making his re-
port the observer saw two of them
sailing around like gulls a few yards
from his house. When they tired Of
the bath they quietly few out Of
the water.

Birds Sing With Children.

At nursing infant schools, South
ampton, England, pair of robins have
built their nest in the beams two years
in succession. The old birds went to
and fro through the windows to feed
the five young ones, who, when they
were old enough, would perch on the
childrens shoulders. The male bird
invariably Joined in the children's
school songs, concluding his singing
when the piano stopped. A whole
aviary of canaries has been kept for
years at Sunninghill infant school, and
these birds sing when the children are
singing, and are silent during the 9th.

ADVICE FOR THE NERVES
Well to Turn Habit Of Overstrenuous-
ness Into Some Really Profit
able Channel.

Are you strenuous? Do you go in
for things for all they are worth? II
you are an American-born woman l
know the answer. You pitch head
long into club life, art, society, or
some other pursuit because your
nerves are ragged American nerves
that never stop sending out impulses
from dawn to dark.
There Is too much pent-up vitality
In all Of us, and yet it is better for
your everlasting beauty and poise that
you expend 1t with discretion over a
number of activities rather than exert
it over one that may be a mere fancy.
l realize that this is day of spe-
cialization, and to be a success one
must adhere to one thing, but vitality
is both physical and mental, and the
first must not be neglected or the Sec
ond will suffer. Regular walks in the
open country and daily exercises
would give her the perfect equilib-
rum and nerve control which she and
her work both need.
Have you ever noticed what lot of
useless things we do when our nerves
are on the ragged edge? When they
are rested and we'll you keep calm, you
enjoy life and accomplish things with
out leaving lines of wear on the face.
If you must be strenuous in the pur-
suit Of some object, expend a good
amount of daily enthusiasm on physi-
cal exercise. The benefits will show
in your looks and health and the per-
lection of your work.-Pittsburgh Dis

To Be Happy In Ones Work.

"The principal of the New school
believes that appropriate activity con.
stitutes the highest form of human
pleasure. He discourages the keep
ing in of dilatory pupils, for the rea-
son that such a policy tends to estab-
lish mistaken attitude toward work.
Ruskin says that God intended every
man to be happy in his work. and he
would likely apply that sentiment
with even greater emphasis to the
child. If we accept this for our creed,
we must agree that far more fitting
and effective form of punishment is
to deny the child the privilege of be-
ing active. Exchange.

This third figure requires that the

Alternate steps are once again used
on the third group Of four counts and
on the last four counts the dancers
make their second salutatiOn (this
time on two instead Of four counts)
after which the partners take two
steps toward each other to continue
the dance with the fourth figure.
The woman. having finished her pre-
vious figure, finds on the pulsation
