mountains.
Thither, in the summer, Kenyon
went to pay a long planned visit. He
found the poor faun sadly changed.
The idea Of lifelong penance had
taken firm possession of Donatello.
He was intent on finding some meth

arranged with Miriam that she should
be in the public square of Perugia on
specified day. near the statue Of
Pope Julius. There the lovers met
again. The sense Of their mutual
crime had stunned, but not destroyed
the youths affection. They needed
one another. Kenyon cheered and
encouraged them. Their two lives
flowed together and the great bronze
statue Of the pope. his hand out
reached in a papal oenediction, be-
meath which they had met. appeared
to impart a blessing on their mar
riage.
So Kenyon went back to Rome to
WOO the gentle Hilda, whose sensitive
soul was burdened by the knowledge
Of the awful guilt OF her friends. The
secret weighed upon her heavily. She
sought the seclusion of great churches
and at last, Protestant though she
was. she found relief by pouring out

Miriam. Whereupon Donatelio had

that they might be rid of him for
ever: and the woman had difficulty
in restraining the gentle youth. whose
hitherto light-hearted nature seemed
suddenly suffused with rage.
But it was otherwise a few nights
later on a moonlight ramble that a
company of artists were enjoying
among the ruins OF old Rome. The
four friends were of the party, which.
after visiting many places. climbed
the Cspitoline Hill and stood on the
Tarpeian Rock. II was bordered by
low parapet. They all bent over
the railing and looked down. Miriam
and Donatello stood together gazing
, into the moonlit depths. They were
so absorbed with the scene and with
each other that they did not notice
the departure Of their friends. Hilda
had gone of with Kenyon. who had
drawn her quietly away. and the 9TH
ers had departed in twos and threes,
4 leaving Miriam behind-alone with the
Italian. But not entirely alone. Hilda
had gone but short way with the
sculptor when she missed her friend
and turned back. She reached the
paved courtyard with the parapet just
in time to witness unnoticed a tregic
scene. Out of the shadows the fa-
miliar figure of Miriam's prosecutor
had appeared and approached her.
There was struggle beginning and
ending in one breathless instant.
Along with it was a loud, fearful cry
which quivered upward through the
air and sank quivering downward to
the earth. Then a silence. Poor Hill
da saw the whole quick passage OF
a deed which took but little time 10
grave itself in the eternal adamant.
She turned and fled unseen, and the
lovers were indeed alone.
What have you done?' said Mi
riam in a horror-stricken whisper
Il did what ought to be done to a
traitor" Donatello replied: what
your eyes bade me do as held the
wretch over the precipice."
The last words struck Miriam like
a bullet. Had her eyes indeed pro-
voked. or assented to this deed? She
had not known IT. But. alas! think
ing back she could not deny that a
wild joy had famed up in her heart

themselves that It was not all a

An agreement had been entered into
before the moonlight tragedy had
taken place that the four friends
should meet\ next morning in the
Church OF the Capuchins to study to-
gether Guido's famous picture of St
Michael and Satan. Thither at the
hour agreed upon Miriam and Dona-
tello turned their steps. Conscious OF
secret guilt. they were the more anx-
lous to keep a casual engagement.
But. when they drew near the church
Kenyon alone was waiting for them.
Hilda had promised to be OF the par
ty, but she was not there. The three
pushed back the heavy curtain and
entered the nave, only to have their
gaze arrested at once by a conspic-
uous object. On a slightly elevated
bier lay the body Of a dead monk,
tall candles burning at his head and
feet. The rigid figure was clad in
the brown woolen frock OF the Ca
puchins. with the hood drawn over
the head. but so as to leave the fea-
lures uncovered. Something seemed
to act like q magnet upon Miriam.
She passed between two of the lighted
candles and looked down. My God.'
she murmured, what is thisT' She
grasped Donatellos hand and felt
him give a convulsive shudder. No
wonder that their blood curdled. The
dead face OF the monk gazing at them
! beneath its half-closed eyelids was
! the same visage that had glared upon
their naked souls the night before as
Donatello had flung him over the
precipice. What did II mean? Ken

Johnnie

All Of a sudden. just as the auts

Just then Johnnie remembered ths

ed at the bushes near which the
auto had stopped on which were
growing purple berries about the
size of small. round beans
"Oh, Billie!" chattered Johnnie Cd
his brother. ~Looki We can take

Then those brave squirrel boys
picked q lot OF the purple berries,
and through their tin bean shooters

BY CHEF ITALIAN.
OF the Kiowa Indian Tribe.

Now, let me think. For I was
going to tell you boys one OF the
stories that the old folks used 10
tell Indian children Oh. yes; now
I remember.
= 1t is the story Of what makes the
Storm stop.
Eut first come outside and sit down
on the grass where we can see tho
growing things. Now. then. here IA
this little worm-the measuring
worm Take a good look at him
Notice that he is not half as long as
your little fingers-sometimes he Is
longer; and see. he has red and vel
low stripes on his green body.
NOTICE, too. how he curves his back
upward when he walks. Now. the
measuring worm eats the colors ou,
OF the grass and flowers. so We say
and the colors come out on his body
and make him beautiful. But when
he takes the colors out of the flowers
they wither and die.
Well. the Rainbow is a big measur-
ing worm. For does he not bow his
ooSh upNhTu ike tnat worm, ana are
not his colors like the colors Of the
flowers?
The rainbow Is the chief Of all OF
the measuring worms.
There comes the time when the
thunderbird and the rattlesnake have
fight up in the above (Which. as
l told you in the last story, makes
the storms and rain).
But the rainbow who has been
away getting the colors out of the
flowers hears them fighting up
there, and all at once he bows his
back. walks up onto the cloud and
makes them quit. So he makes the
storm stop.
Children" old grandfather used
to say to us. you must never point
your finger at the rainbow, for as
he makes the flowers wither, so he
might make your fingers crooked.
The rainbow is a grandfather" he
used to say. and you must be re-
spectful toward him; then he will
