two men stood waiting, until suddenly
beyond them to the south a curly head
came above the waters edge. Then
they leapt to the shore and raced to-
ward the place she must land. To
the painting girl 1t was race for life.
Suddenly. like a flashing glimpse
from Heaven. the words, "Stand Still
and See the Salvation of the Lord"
flOated before her eyes like a flame of
gold. Philip MacCauley's deep voice
seemed to speak them in her ringing
ears Immediately after. "Goddy," she
groaned, salvation of the Lord, oh,
darin' Salvation"
Just then her feet touched the peb-
bles on the bottom Of the lake. With
one wild leap she was on the shore
and up the bank, Griah screaming at
her to stop.
She heard the two men crashing
after her. That her short, swift leaps
could outdistance them for long if she
tried for the boulevard, she had no
hope. But all about ner were giant
friends with Outstretched arms offer
ing her shelter. For one instant she
paused, then sprang into the air,
caught the lower branch of a great
pine tree and like a squirrel scurried
up it. Almost at the top, spanned over
by the blue sky she crawled out to
the end of big limb and chung to 1t.
Beneath her the men paused and
shouted curses up at her, TOnnibel
cared nothing for curses. She'd heard
them all her life, used them, too, when
she felt like it.
Suddenly there came to her ears the
tapping of a paddle in the lake. She
flung up her head, peeped out and saw
canoe taking its leisurely way to-
ward Ithaca. She bent over and looked
down.

one rowin' on the lake. I'm goin' to

WAS NEW ONE ON KITCHENER
Great British Soldier Somewhat Out
of His Element When 1t Came
to ChapIains.

Here is a Lord Kitchener story, told
by the anonymous author of 'The Mir
rors of Downing Street" Kitchener
was a soldier and absorbed in his pro-
fession. Details outside of his ruling
passion annoyed him.
During the early days of the war
Lloyd George went to him at the war
office and asked the appointment of
UNCONVENTIONAL chaplains for the vari-
GUS sects of the army.
Kitchener had no interest in chap
lains. He regarded them as a negli-
gible factor in the fighting machine.
He opposed the appointments. Lloyd
George insisted, especially with respect
to Presbyterians. Kitchener finally
yieledd and picked up his pen.
every WELL" he said, "you shall have
n Presbyterian" Then a faint smile
lighted his serious face. Let me see,
Presbyterian?-how do you spell it?'

that Devon and Reggie Brown jumped
to their feet and raced away toward
the boulevard Tonnibel from her
perch saw them disappear toward
Ithaca before she slid to the ground.
The man in the canoe, too, made but
a short pause before he dipped his
paddle and shot away. On the deck
of the boat Tonnibel picked up Gus
sie-Piglet and, dripping wet, went
swiftly down the cabin steps. There
she found her mother on the bunk, her
face dscolored by her husbands
blows. She looked as if she were dead,
and for Il moment the forlorn child of
the wilderness uttered heartbroken
little cries for help.
The cabin was cluttered In the
struggle Uriah Devon had had with
his wife. In despair Tony looked
around. The old clothes daddy had
brought home were strewn over the
cabin floor. Tonnibel heaped them
together, then began to examine them.
They needed nothing but pressing.
This she'd do to save her mother the
work; and perhaps the fact that he
had something ready to sell would
make Uriah less brutal when he came
back. In running her fingers over
coat, searching for small rents, Tony
felt something between the lining and
outside, book 1t seemed like, which
she hastily pulled out. 1t was small
and much worn. There wasn't any
money in It, in fact nothing but a pic
ture, wrapped up in paper.
She looked at the picture curiously.
A baby's face smiled up at her, and
her own lips curved bit In answer to
the laughing challenge in the little
ones eyes.
Then she turned It over.
On the back was written:
"AIy baby, Caroline Pendlehaven,

ward by returning It to DR.. Paul Pen

would give her a bottle of medicine for

Hastily changing her wet clothes
she slipped the baby's pictured face
into her blouse. turned down the lamp
and crept from the canal boat and
with Gussie in her arms was soon lost
in the forest.

soon to make recommendation for
