CHAPTER XIII.

II IN the mountains there was one
person OF whom the Blue Grass knew
with favor, 1t was Juanita Holland
She had worked quietly and without
any biare Of trumpets. Her efforts had
never been advertised. but the thins
she was trying to do was too unusual
a thing to have escaped public no
tice and public laudation. That she
was spending her life and her own
large fortune in a manner Of selfsacri.
nee and hardship was thing of which
the state had been duly apprised.
She, at least, would stand acquitted
OF feudal passion. She stood as lone

best and most unselfish in Kentucky
ideals and the ideals of civilization.
II she chose to come now as a wit
ness for Anse Havey, she should

oner bent forward and fixed eyes blaz-
ing with excitement on the door OF
the witness room. He saw it open and
saw her pause there, pale and rather
perplexed, then she came steadily to
the witness stand and asked: DO |

an who took her seat and raised her
hand to be sworn. She was infinitely
more beautiful he thought, in the ha-
biliments of her own world. She
seemed a queen who had waived her
regal prerogatives and come into this
mean courtroom in his behalf.
His heart leaped into tumuIt. He
would not hcve asked her to come;
would not have permitted her to sub.

Then he heard her voice low ant

quietly, ever since went to the

Even the Judge, whose face had

Pasteur's Tribute to Lister.

Of all the tributes to the genius of Lord Lister, the discoverer of antisep- tic surgery. probably the most touch ing was that paid to him by Pasteur. the famous French scientist At a meeting of savants in Paris many years ago Lord Lister was present. and his brilliant achievements were explained to the audience by Pasteur As he progressed in his speech he be- came more and more emotional, and at last he was so carried away by his own eloquence that the tears stood in his eyes. Finally he stepped down from the platform. took Lord Lister. who was in the front row of the audi ence, by both hands. led him back on to the platform and kissed him on both cheeks, after the manner of the French in full view of the assembly. Few could have looked on unmoved at the great Frenchman's act of homage to the distinguished English surgeon.

 The late Fl. B. ClafIin. who was one of the great merchants of the last gen. ,eradon, lived for many years at Kings bridge, then one of the suburbs of New York. It was his Mhim to have each morning before breakfast a drink of cold water fresh from the spring near the house.
 One very rainy morning the pitcher was not in its usual place. and he ask ed the waitress why it was missing.
 why. MT. Claftn," she said, it was raining so hard and is so muddy that I was afraid if [ went after the water 1 should be too soiled to wait on the table. asked Michael to get it for me. but he said it was his business to look after the horses and carriages. not to run errands.'
 "Oh!" said MT. Clafiin thoughtfully. Perhaps he is right. Ella. Please tell him I want the victoria"
 Ten minutes later. with much tram bling of hoofs and champing of bits. the carriage drew up at the doer. with Michael on the box in his rubber coat and hat cover.
 Come, Ella" said MT. Claf1in. ''get your pitcher,'' and taking her by the arm he walked down the front steps and helped her into the carriage.
 Michael" said he, drive Ella to the spring and back. so she can get me some water without muddying her self"
 Ever after Michael used to fill the pitcher on rainy mornings without even waiting to be asked.-Yonth's Compan- fen.

If you do not believe that go upstairs some hot summer night to the rear bedroom that i:...le room under the blazing tin roof which you reserve for your rela- tives-and make up the bed fifteen or twenty times. carefully unmaking it between times and placing the clothes away in a regular position. Let your family nag at you and criticise you during each moment of the job. while somebody plays an obligato on the electric bell and places shoes and leath- CT grips underneath your feet. lmag. inc the house is pumping and rocking and keep smiling face and cour, teous tongue throughout all of it!
 Or do this on a bitter night in mid. winter, and between every two or three makings of the bed in the over' heated room slip out of a linen coat and into fairly thin serge one and go and stand outside the door from three to ten minutes in the snow and cold. In some ways this is one of the hard est parts of Georges job Racially the negro is peculiarly sensitive to pneu- monia and other pulmonary diseases.

SHRAPNEl SHELLS.
Various Types In Use and the Mass sf
 Bullets They Carry.

Various Types In Uss and the Mass sf
 Bullets They Carry.
 Most nations are agreed that the three inch shrapnel is the most effec- tive for killing men in modern war fare. The three inch type, which is almost universally used. contains from 21O to 36O half inch lead bullets, punched together in the front part of the shell. A time fuse, which is made with the accuracy of watch, is grad uated in seconds and is set to explode at gfeen ci1ge as determined by the artillerymen.
 The velocity of the shell may be gathered from the fact that it travels a mile in four seconds and within a quarter of q minute is four miles from the mouth of the gun. At any time during this rapid flight the shell can he made to explode with marvellous precision and deadly effectiveness. driving it's bullets in a cone shaped shower down on the heads of the enemy.
