the Claymore inn when that inn was
simply tavern.
Then she found herself looking into
drawer half drawn out and filed
with all sorts of heterogeneous ar
ticles-sealing wax, roll of pins,
penholder, a knife-a knife! Why
should she recoil again at that? Moth
ing could be more ordinary than to
find a knife in the desk drawer OF
Young mani The fact was not worth
a thought; yet before she knew it her
fingers we're creeping towards this
knife, had picked it up from among
the other scattered articles, had closed
upon it, let it drop again, only to
seize hold of it yet more determinedly
and carry it straight to the light.
The knife was lying open on her
palm, and from one of the blades the
end had been nipped, just enough OF
it to match
Was she mad! She thought so for
a moment; then she laid down the
knife close against the cap and con-
templated them both for more minutes
than she ever reckoned.
The candle futtering low in its
socket reused her at last from her ab'
straction. Catching up the two ar
ticIes which had so enthralled her, she
restored the one to the closet, the
other to the drawer, and, with swift
but silent step, regained her own
room where she buried her head in
her pillow, weeping and praying until
the morning light, breaking in upon
her grief, awoke her to the obligations
of her position and the necessity OF
silence concerning all the experiences
of this night.

SOME GOOD IN VIVID COLOR
Frenchmen Found Their Red Caps
Useful in Signaling to Their
Alert Comrades.

The French have, with the oncom-
ing of winter, put into use the recent
ly adopted great coat for infantry. 1t
is not, as heretofore, q dark blue, but
a blue-gray. The French have left
to their British allies the khaki color,
and they could not adopt the gray
green hue which had already been
chosen by the Germans. So they ac-
copied a blue, which is neutral and
from distance scarcely visible. 1t
blends with the fog of the morning
and the smoke of battle.
AS for red, it is now definitely pro-
scribed. The vermilion military cap
diers hereafter clothed in shaded
foggy wear will attract less attention
from the enemy. But" says LIE erie
de Paris, ''if red offers in time of war
greater danger to the wearer, 1t may
on occasion present some advantages.
The other day wounded soldier re-
counted how he and several of his
comrades wandered into a position in
advance of the French lines. AS they
were taken for Germans every time
one stuck his nose above the trench
they drew the fire of our soldiers. All
at once an idea came to them. They
put on the ends of their bayonets
their red caps from which they had
removed the cover The firing ceased
and they were enabled to return to
their countrymen. This time it was
the red that saved them"

Pet Colt Fiqures In Divorce.

A pet colt was introduced into the
complaint of Mrs. Sarah T. Langdon
for divorce from Leslie Langdon. 1t

the trial of her divorce action before
Judge Monroe the other day Mrs,
Langdon said her husband threatened
to sell the colt She wanted to keep
it because she had raised it. His
threat to dispose of the colt was to
annoy her, she said, and thereby she
suffered mentally.
But you can't always keep the colt

nao hoped to establish between him
ana Reuther, that she had waited for
the house to be silent and her child
asleep.
Unhappy mother, Just as she saw
something like a prospect of releasing
ner long-dead husband from the odium
OF an Unjust sentence, to be shaken
by this new doubt as to the story and
character of the man for whose union
with her beloved child she was so
anx1ously struggling!
There was a room on this INNER
moor into which neither she nor Reu-
ther had even stepped. She had
once looked in, but that was all. To.
nlght-because she could not sleep:
because she must not think-she was
resolved to enter it. divers room!
left as he had left it years before!
What might it not tell of a past CON
corning which she longed to be reas-
sured?
The father had laid no restrictions
upon her, in giving her this floor for
her use. Rights which he ignored she
could afford to appropriate. Dressing
sufficiently for warmth, she lit a
candle, put out the light in her own
room and started down the hall to
this long-closed room.
smother of dust-an odor of de-
cay-a lack of all order in the rooms
arrangements and furnishings-even
a general disarray, hallowed, if not
affected, by time-for all this she was
prepared. But not for the wild confu-
sion-the inconceivable litter and all
the other signs she saw about her of
a boys mad packing and reckless de-
parture.
There was an inner door, and this
some impulse drove her to open. A
small closet stood revealed, empty
but for one article. When she saw
this article she gave a great gasp;
then she uttered low pshaw! and
with shrug of the shoulders drew
back and flung to the door. But she
opened it again. She had to. One
cannot live in hideous doubt, without
an effort to allay it. She must look
at that small, black article again;
look at it with candle in hand: see
for herself that her fears were with
out foundation; that a shadow had
made the outline on the wall which
She returned to the closet and slow
ly, reluctantly reopened the door. Be-
fore her on the wall hung a cap-and
it was no shadow which gave it that
look like her husbands; the broad
peak was there. She had not been
mistaken; it was the duplicate of the

count for her alterations of feverish
impulse and deadly lassitude. The
trouble she had suppressed was hav-

Yves there no medium course? Could
she not learn where Oliver had been
on the night of that old-time murder?
Miss Weeks was a near neighbor and
saw everything. Miss Weeks never
forgot; to Miss Weeks she would go.
She had passed the first gate and
was on the point Of opening the sec.
ond one, when she saw on the walk
before her a small slip of brown pa,
per. Lifting it, she perceived upon it
an almost illegible scrawl which she
made out to read thus:
For Mrs. Scoville:

shared by others-others!
In five minutes she was crossing the

genial, her tongue ready for any en-

all hazards If it could be found here,
then here would she seek it. Her long
