his life. She was there: he was faithful
to her; he supplied her lavishly with
money; and he considered himself
when he considered the matter at alias
a good husband And, according to the
standards of his race and epoch, perhaps
he was.
Mildred Pennrhyn stifed yawn before
replying, Il don't know She responded
to her husbands query in the toneless
voice of one whose thoughts are miles
away. "The same house that's up there
in the daytime, ! suppose, only lighted
up"
"Tve never been here in the daytime
since we took the place" Pennrhyn's
voice, which in his Office seemed the liquid
distilment of energy itself, at home took
on the same fiat, lifeless intonation as his
wife's. Then, pursuing the topic. not so
much because it interested him as because
it was topic, he added: But the lights
there every night, isn't it?'
Mildred answered: Until about ten
O'Clock. Then it goes out. Every light
in the place goes out, because everybody
goes to bed"
HER voice rather than her words ex-
pressed her utter WEAKNESS with her
surroundings, with her life, with the man
before her, and with herself And yet, as
the forward motion of her rocking-chair
brought her head and bare neck into the
range of bar of pale orange light falling
out through the open door behind them,
there was revealed fleshly presentment
which denoted no deficiency in life or in
the power of living. The bright blond
coloring, the shining, heavy-idded eyes,
the high-bridged nose, the clear crimson
outlines of the full lips-here was power
both of intellect and of passion.
Of these facts the man beside her was
totally unconscious. With all the forces
of his being, he continued to grapple with
the problem of Roanoke Central and his
hidden antagonists.
With a life!ess, dawdling grace, Mrs.
Pennrhyn rose slowly to her feet
Bedtime" she observed briefly, with
a yawn that her husband recognized as
assumed. He made no effort to keep her
only observing with perfunctory polite
ness, as he stopped to pick up an open
letter she had dropped:
"How are you getting on, Millie? The
air seem to be doing you good?'
For they had taken the place, as a
matter of fact, because after her strenuous
New York winter Mrs. Pennrhyn needed
change of air.
"Splendidly!" she answered mechan-
ically. Next week I'm thinking of start
ing our week-ends.
AS she lifted two slim white hands in
genuine yawn, the ermine coat fell open,
displaying her beautiful arms and the
long, fiat, charming lines of her exquisite
figure. Her husband, drained of all nerves
and physical energy by the exhausting
claims of his business, surveyed her love-
illness with a coldly appraising eye, and
reflected that if his deal went we'll he
would buy her the tiara he had seen on
Fifth Avenue the other day; which,
poised on her golden hair in their box at
the Metropolitan, would serve to choke
his triumph down the throats of his enc
mics. On the other hand, if he failed
A grim but undeniable shudder ran down
his backbone as he reflected how un-
pleasant it would be to face his family-in-
law the naughty Van Ordens, who had
permitted their beautiful daughter to

that as a usual thing it was out by ten
o'clock?
Pennrhyn, stretching his stiffened limbs,
made violent effort to yawn. "Im
turning into an old gossip" he grunted
to himself. However, anything's better
than to keep on thrashing my brain about
Roanoke Central, if / want to sleep to-
night
Sleep, however, was far from his eye
lids. In spite of his sinking WEAKNESS,
the mere thought of bed was abhorrent
to him. The overstrained forces of life
drove his aching limbs forward, forward.
And hoping to quiet his over-galvanized
nerves by the simple remedy of counter
irritation in the form of exercise, he set
himself to walk up and down the darkened
veranda Up and down, up and down.
No. he would think no more of Roanoke
Central-that was one sure thing He be-
gan to speculate concerning that light on
the other side of the lake-that light that
burned alone on the empty mountain-side
in the blackness of the silent midnight.
RUT an over-stimulated brain, like an
over-excited horse, may be more easily
set going in one direction than reined in
after it has been started. Tramp, tramp,
up the length of the veranda. Tramp,
tramp, down again. OF all the exceptional
conditions that a midnight light may con-
note in a simple community, which might
be ascribed to the human being or beings
now lit by that lamp? Did its rays light
up the features of drunken revelers? the
pale head of an ambitious student?
the tear-stained eyes of watchers beside
the dead? or the crafty lowering gestures
that foreboded crime?
Crime AT the mere flash of the word,
with its suggestion of violence and of
mystery, the boy that still survived within
the skin of the heavy y-shouldered stock
plunger was alive and tingling And the
question of the mysterious light, which he
had propounded to his brain as a mere
sedative against the engrossing excite
ment of his business problems, became in
itself an obsession that rendered repose
impossible. In a sudden twanging jerk of
nerves and mental irritation, he knew that
it was impossible for him to quench
thought in sleep till he should have solved
the mystery of that solitary light.
Even to himself, however, he did not
condescend to confess his own weakness.
1--we got my nerves in devil of a
state" he soiloquized. "A good stiff
paddle on the lake'll be just the thing to
set them right. A good sweat, then
cold plunge if that doesn't make me
sleep
Accordingly he tiptoed upstairs, changed
his Tuxedo for a heavy knitted jacket,
slipped a small safety revolver into one
pocket and an electric torch in the other,
and began his cautious descent down the
unlt garden to the boat-house at the
edge of the inky waters.
PENNRHYN padded with precise
violence that drove the slim craft cut
ting through the water. A wind of his
own making famed his hot forehead. All
the muscular and nervous power that by
day went to bucking the mighty inertia
of financial values now served to force the
frail canvas canoe across the darkened
lake in the shortest possible space of time.
Suddenly the opposing shore loomed
close. With stiffening of his huge
muscles, Pennrhyn threw his weight

HOW SUCCESS MAY BE WON
Suggestive Article That May Appea al
to Those Who at Present Occupy
Subordinate Positions.

In the Womans Home Companion
appears a practically suggestive ar
ticle entitled The Girl With Note
book and Pencil" by Anna Steese
Richardson. In her article. Mrs Rich
ardson shows how a stenographer can.
by thinking and acting for her en-
ployer. advance herself in her bust
ness career. Following is an extract
from the article
Il have known stenographers who
felt that 1t was beneath their dignity
to see to the busting Of their EN-
ployer's desk, who felt that they did
not need to pay any attention to his
supplies of pins, rubber bands and let
ter clips: who did not notice whether
his pencils were sharp or not. or
whether his ink wells were filled. II
should be a part Of every secretary's
work TO see that these things are at
tended to; that ink wells, paste pots.
pens. pencils. blotters-in fact. every
bit Of the desk equipment In or
der for use. and that the desk and
all its fittings are absolutely dustless.
Two opportunities are open TO the
stenographer One IL d private secre-
taryship. The other is an ndepen.
dent business venture. Both are
reached by tho same methods--ac-
curacy. efficiency and undivided inter
est. A good memory helps, but inter
est and that great gift Of thinking for
and with your employer counts the
most. Lastly and just as important
as anything else, remember q keep
absolute silence. both in the Office
and out Of it, GA all subjects relating

Armored Cars Centuries Ago.

Among the interesting documents
In the old Bohemian city Saaz. on the
Eyer river, is "a picture showing an
attack on the fortress Glatz. in Silesia
500 years ago. in which war-auto-
mobiles were used The mechani-
cally-driyen cars were fat vehicles,
protected by huge shields in front, in
which the soldiers turned large
cranks, the rotary motion of which
was transferred to cog-wheeIs and to
the road wheels. These fifteenth cen
fury "chaulfeurs" got a speed of four
miles an hour ont of the armored cars.
