wealth of the country. Missouri la one
of the atatea that keepa official track
of the hen, and the labor bureau of
that commonwealth haa Ju*t made a
report on the subject. It appeara from
the record* that lu 1908 the value of
the eggs laid by Missouri hen* and
eold elsewhere was 122,027,628. The
value of poultry shipped out of the
state for the same period was $22,095,.
6C8, and the value of feathers sold for
the sume time was 837,687. Here Is
a grand total of <41,960,973 from sur-
PIub poultry and poultry products

of the quantity and value of eggs and
poultry consumed at home or of the
value of the feathered stock still on

tlmea a little prejudiced In favor of
their own perspicuity In getting up a
case, let that policeman, of any other
country, who la quite without fault,
throw the first atone at their brave,
good-natured heads.
Logotheti was not at his lodgings
In St. James' place, and from each
of two clubs to which the officer tele-
phoned rather at random, the only an-
swer wns thnt he wbh a member but
not tn the house. The officer wrote
a line to his rooms and sent It by a
messenger, to be given to him as soon
as he came In.
It was late In the hot afternoon
when Mrs. Foxwell answered the mes-
sage by coming to the police station
herself. She was at once admitted
Hazing, like the hereditary family
feud In certain sections of this coun-
try, fs a continuing evil, because it is
banded down from one college genera-
tion to the next, and each man who
has In his time and turn run the
gauntlet wants to pay off the score
and secure revenge vicariously upon
the person of the trembling freshman
who falls into his clutches, says the
Boston Advertiser. The class that de-
cides to proscribe hazing has been
punished and now finds Itself daprlved
01 the chance of Inflicting punishment.
And so the evil tradition persists,
merely because no class can make up
It* mind to forego the precious priv-
ilege of meting out to others the same
barsh and cruel treatment that wa#
their own portion.
The propaganda for good roads is
accomplishing great results. The ef-
fect of the campaign Is being felt In
almost every state in the union. The
■wakening to the necessities of the
situation has come none too soon, but
now that the battle is practically won
and millions of dollars are being in-
vested In the improvement of the
highways of the nation it cannot be
realized too soon that constant and
tujtirlng vigilpDce Is the price of good
roads. No matter how well built Ue
new roads may be, unless liberal pro-
vision is made for their maintenance
they will deteriorate and become little
better than at preseht
The speed maniacs of the age have
made one radical mistake. They have
aimed for speed before establishing
the degree of pressure which present-
day mechanism will resist Conse-
quently, the strain they impose upon
the mechanical part of their vehicle*
Is beyond the latter's power of endur-
ance.

that lie would help her out of her
trouble. I^idy Maud wa* lea* sure
of Hint, however, and aald ao, but II
wa* soon clear that Haraku did not
*peak a word of any language known
to l.ndy Maud, who waa no great

stances it looked aa If there were
nothing to be done for the poor girl,
who made all aorta of algna or dla-
tie**, when *he saw that the Rngllah
woman waa about to leave her, In
aheer despair of being of any use.
Juat then, however, the *ergeant came
to the door, and Informed the vlaltor
that the g)r) hud an accomplice who
■Poke her lungunge and knew aome
English, and thul by ptretchlng a point
he would bring the man, If Mra. Fox-
well wished lo talk with him.
The reault waa that In lea* than
half an hour, Udy Maud heard from
Hplro a most extraordinary tale, of
which ahe did not believe a alngle
word. To her plain Kngllsh mind It
all aeemod perfectly mad at flrat, and
on reflection she thought it an out-
rageous attempt to play upon her
credulity; whoreaa ahe wa* thorough-
ly convinced thnt the girl had coma
to grief in aome way through Logo-
theti and had followed him from Con-
atantlnople, probably aupportlng her-
*elf and her companion by ateallng
on the way. Lady Maud'a huaband
had been a brute, but he knew the
east tolerably well, having done *ome
military duty In the Caucaaua before
he entered the diplomatic service; hia
storle* had chiefly Illustrated the pro-
found duplicity of all Asiatics, and
*he had not *een any reason to dis-
believe them.
When Spiro had nothing more to
say, therefore, ahe rose from the only
seat there was and shook her head
with an air of utter incredulity, min-
gled with the sort of pitying contempt
she felt for all lying In general. She
could easily follow the case, by the
help of the sergeant and the police
court reports, and she might be able
to help Haraka hereafter when the
girl had served the sentence she
would certainly get for such an im-
portant and cleverly managed theft.
The poor girl implored and wept in
vain; Lady Maud could do nothing,
and would not stay to be told any-
more Insane stories about ruby mines
In Tartary. She called the sergeant,
freed herself from Baraka's despair-
ing hold on her hand and went out.
And when she thought of what must
have gone before, and of the part lo-
gotheti had almost certainly played
In the girl's life, her anger was
roused, and she sat down and wrote
to Margaret on the impulse of the mo-
ment. She gave a detailed account of
her experience at the police station,
including especially a description of
the way Haraka had behaved in trying
to send a message to Logotheti.
"I tell you quite frankly," Lady
Maud wrote In conclusion, "that my
friend Mr. Van Torp has begged me
very urgently to use any friendly in-
fluence I may possess, to Induce you

tremely well-managed countries when

Furthermore, it al*o happened that
Logotheti was cooling himself on the
deck of hi* yatch In the neighborhood
of Fenxance, wli|J poor Haraka waa
half-stlfied In the police station. For
the yaoht, which waa a very comfor-
table one, though no longer new, and
not very fast according to modern
Ideas, wa* at Cowes, waiting to be
wanted, and when her owner purted
from Van Torp after promising to
dine on the next day but one, It oc-
curred to him that the smell of the
wood pavements waa particularly
nasty, that It would make no real dif-
ference whether be returned to Fin-
ney s at once or In two days, or two
weeks, since the ruby he had left
must be cut before It was mounted,
and that lie might Juat aa well take
the fast train to Southampton and get
to sea for a« hours. Thla he did, after
telegraphing his sailing-master to
have steam as soon as possible; and
the one Logotheti bad given ber for
her engagement, aud which ahe bad
Instated upon having aet aa a ring,
though It would cover more than half
the space between her knuckle and
the Joint of her third finger. Further,
It had been *tolen by the very girl
from whom Logotheti had pretended
that he had bought II, a fact which

that she should have seen It, and
should have known that ho was tak-
ing It to Plnney'a, and that she *hould
have been able to prepare a little
as he had only Just time to reach the
Waterloo station he did not even Ulce
the trouble to stop at his lodgings.
He needed no luggage, for he had
everything he wanted on board, and
his man was far too well used to his
ways to be surprised nt his absence.
The consequence of this waa that
when Baraka's case came up the next
morning there was no one to say a
word for her and Spiro. Mr. Plnney
Identified the ruby "to the best of his
belief as the one stolen from his
counter, the fact that Baraka had
been disguised in man's clothing was
treated as additional evidence, and
ahe and Spiro were sent to Brixton
Jail accordingly, Spiro protesting
their Innocence all the while In elo-
quent but disjointed English, until he
was told to hold his tongue.
Further, Lady Maud read the po-
lice court report In an evening paper,
cut It out and sent It to Margaret as a
document confirming the letter she
had posted on the previous evening;
and owing to the same insufficiency
In the address, the two missives were
delivered together.
Lastly, Mr. Pinney took the big
ruby back to his shop and locked It
up in his safe with a satisfaction and
a sense of profound relief such as he
had rarely felt In a long and honorable
life; and he would have been horri-
fied and distressed beyond words if be
could have even guessed that he had
been the means of sending an inno-
cent and helpless girl to prison.
One thing more which concerns this
tale happened on that same day. Two
well-dressed men drove up to the door
of a quiet and very respectable hotel
In the West end; and they asked for
their bill, and packed their belong-
ings, which were sufficient though not
numerous; and when they had paid
what they owed and given the usual
tips, they told the porter to call two
hansoms, and each had his things put
screw of paper with a bit of glass
Inelde, to substitute for It. The Im-
probabilities of such un explanation
did not occur to Margaret, who aaw
only the glaring fact that the hand-
some Tartar girl had accompanied
Uwotbetl, between London and Paris,
dlsgulshed as a man, and had ultl
that ahe waa quite white and that bet

Hut she was really a aenslble Bng-

And she sat down to try and tblnk
quietly.

She had Imposed upon Van
lorp, too, and had probably tried to
sell him the very stone she had stolen
from Logotheti, and the one she bad
made him take as a gift was nothing
but a bit or glass, as he said It might
be, for all he knew.
She devoured Udy Maud's letter In
a few moments, and then read It
twice again, which took so long that
Mrs. RuHbmore sent Justine to tell
Potts to ask If Miss Donne did not
mean to go out that morning, though
the weather was so line.

Maud, who called herself by her own

Baraka saw the quick movement

"Ask Mra. Ruahmore If she can
