ILLUSION

Rev. Arthur Smith and his young
wife stopped simultaneously, Mortified.
In the market place of Travancore. A
crowd Of Hindus had gathered about
man who lay, with placid look
upon his face, on a bed Of sharp-pofnt-
ed nails.
After stretching himself out as IL
he were on a comfortable mattress,
the fakir rose up, smiling, and held
out his copper bowl for aims. The
pice of the populace clattered against
the sides.
When the bowl was thrust out to
the missionary he turned away with a
frown and drew his wife's arm through
his.
Sometimes, Mary, doubt whether
these people can be civilized" he said.
''What disgusting exhibition! And
they call that u holy mani"
Mr.. Smith was only a year out from
the theological college in Iowa. He
had felt a call to act as missionary
among the heather. He was young
man of ardent mind and intensely in
earnest, but a little narrow, little In
capable of entering into the life of the
Indian. Nevertheless he had accom-
plished great deal of good in Travan-
core, and of the people whom he was
inclined to think unamenable there
were many who spoke with good will
of him.
1t was three days later when he was
surprised to see the fakir confronting
him in his study. How the man had
got in he did not know, for his native
servant had not admitted him.
NO." said the missionary sternly.
'You not give pice to poor fakirT
asked the man. smiling.
81 am here to heal mems souls, not to
encourage such barbarous exhibitions.
Do you suppose you can do any good
to yourself or others by those self
inflicted tortures?"
The fakir looked at him gravely.

Il shall always be glad of you, as

Yet your own prophet has taught
that the body must be crucified," re-

Mr.. Smith stared at him. "Then, If
you know that much, you know enough
to reason" he said. "Come to our
meeting next Thursday week and wen

fury of the rioters. The crowd swept
through the garden gate. At their
head, his eyes alight with fanaticism,
was the fakir. torch and sword In
hand.
sKin! Kill 7" the mob shouted.
Smith very simply placed his arm
about Mary's waist, and together they
waited for the end.
With a yell the fakir raised his
sword and thrust Smith saw his wife
fall, pierced through the heart Red
swan before his eyes, and he rushed
upon the savage with clenched fists.
But he saw the sword bright before
him, felt blow on his breast, and. I'M
conscious Of pain, realized that the
fakir was withdrawing the hilt from
his own body. In a swoon he toppled
to the ground. And he remembered,
with strange incongruity. that this
was Thursday.
He heard the yelling mob sweep on
ward, and with his last effort ne
CROPPED toward his wife, found her
hand, and held 1t. And then con-
seriousness forsook him.
Somebody was bending over him,
stroking his forehead. He opened his
eyes. He saw his wife kheeling over
him.
"Thank God you are alive, Arthur
she whispered. "Are you hurt? Try
to rise"
He sprang to his feet, staring at her
in bewilderment. There was not a
wound upon her; and, looking down,
he could see none on. himself.
"Maryl What has happened?" he
cried.
81 don't know, Arthur" she an
swered, looking at him In equal aston
ishment. II thought l saw you
stabbed"
"And your" he cried in wonder. And
then he realized that both had been
the victims of the fakir's illusion; that
the man had saved them, either by
sleight Of hand, or by accomplishing
some one of those illusions that the
fakirs perform for the entertainment
of their audiences.
They fell into each others arms. In
the distance were the dwindling cries
of the mob. Their house was unin-
jured. And, as they stood there, they
saw a troop of cavalry ride down the
street, driving the mutheers before
them, cutting them down with their
swords.
"At least, did not desert my post"
said Smith. And with sudden CRATE
fulness to the fakir he took Mary into
his arms again. They had never felt
SO near to one another.
Smith looked up with start. He
was back in his library, and before
him stood the fakir, still holding out
his copper bowl and whining.
"You no give pice to poor fakir?"
asked the man.
Smith looked up over his shoulder.
When the man had entered the room
the clock had pointed to twenty min
utest past ten. Now 1t was still twen-
ty minutes past ten. And the sentence
that he man was speaking was the
same as that with which he had en-.
tered the room.
In less than a second the whole of
the episode had been implanted upon
his mind by the art of the beggar be-
fore him.
He sprang to his feet. 'Mary!" he
called.
did you want me, dear?" an
swered his wife, entering with placid
smile.
s"How did this man get fn?"
"Why, just let him in. You know
you said you would see anybody"
Smith threw three pice into the cop
per bowl, and the fakir, saluting grave
" turned and made his dignif1ed exit.
Smith turned to his wife.
Il think, my dear" he said mildly,
that in future we shall try-try to
get to know little more about our
people instead of-of shutting our
selves away from them"

IT seems passing strange that there
is constant complaint of the electric
cars running through the city at rate
exceeding the speed limit. While two
wrongs never make a right, we cannot
see. or understand. why there is never
complaint about the automobiles
running through the STREETS at a rate
that doubly exceeds the speed limit,
which is twelve miles an hour.
Scarcely an hour, day or night, do
automobiles not run these streets at
24-mile an hour speed, instead of
twelve. Women and children would
have been killed long ago were it not
for that special Providence that pre-
sides over fools and children" as
well as drunken men.
Any fairminded person will say that
if the electric cars ran any more slow
ly over these streets (and mark you
an hour apart) they would have to
stop altogether. Watch the automo-
biles speed along so rapidly that you
cannot get their number. or see the
occupants. and compare this speed to
that of the electric cars, and be just,
be fair, be equitable,
