 We can only hope" I answered. catching my breath quickly Nichols may have told that for a purpose-a desire to make you feel helpless and alone. But we cannot stand here and talk. You know the way and can guide us in the dark, can you not? It will be safer not to leave the lamp burn ing"

 We slipped out into the nall to- gether, her clasp on my fingers warm and confident, and l closed the door of the room behind us.

 And if he cannot come himself he means to send others. What for? What does he want of the girl?'
 My hammer clicked, and the man eringing back, read the stern mean ing of my face. A terrible suspicion surged over me, and 1 was ready to kill He knew his life hung by hair

 I heard the startled exclamation of the girl behind me.

Bee Stinqs Cure Rheumatism.

Longmont.-H. G. Knowles, teacher
of sioyd in the local schools, has
thrown away his crutches, having
been cured of a severe case of rheu-
matism by the sting of bees. The suf-
ferer admitted to the treatment rather
reluctantly. He barred his right leg
to the sting of number of the bees,
and soon realized an improvement.
Again he underwent the ordeal, receiv-
ing hundreds of stings, with the re-
suit that all pain and stiffness left
him and he absolutely free of the dis
ease. 1t is claimed that the poison
from the stings counteracts the poison
in the blood, which effects the cure.
