How Signals Arranged for Between

Were Carried On.
The captain had not been long mar-
ried when he was ordered into camp.
To be sure, the camp was In plain
sight of the captain's residence, but
then It was still a separation; and to
lighten this terrible condition It was
arranged that the bereaved husband
and wife should signal to each other
often with their handkerchiefs. It was
on the second day that the young wife
was seated on the porch reading "Tell
me, Jane," said she, "is the calvin
still signaling?" "Yes, ma'am," an-
swered the maid. "Then keep waving
your hai.dkerchlef. I want to finish
this novel." At the same time, in
camp an officer from an adjoining
company stepped up to the captain.
"I say, old fellow," he asked, "why do
you keep that man out there all day
waving a handkerchief?" "Ob, It's
merely a bit of signal-code practice for '
him."

CHAPTER XII.
The News From Africa.
It took yie better part of three eve-
nings to answer her letter, and the
writing of It gave Sabron a vast
amount of pleasure and some tender
sorrow. It made hi in feel at once so
Bess to Fight Troops.
In the bush fighting In Kast Africa
the Germans and their black troops

so far away. In truth there la a great stupefied by smoke, under lids on each
difference between a spalil on sn Af
rlean desert, and a young American
heiress dreaming In her chlntx-covered
bedroom lu a chateau In the Midi of
France.
Notwithstanding, the young Ameri-
can heiress felt herself as much alone
In her chlntx-covered bedroom and as
desolate, perhaps more so, than did
Sitbron In his tent. Julia Kedmond
felt, too. that she was surrounded by
people hostile to her friend
Sabron's letter told her of Pltchoune
and was written as only the hund of a
charming and Imaginative Frenchman
can write a letter. Also, his pent-up
heart snd his reserve made what he
did say stronger than If perhaps he
could have expressed It quite frankly.
Julia Redmond turned the sheets
that told of Pltchoune's following his
master, and colored with Joy and pleas-
ure as she read She wiped away two
leurs at the end. where Sabron said:

troops must advance. Wires or cords
lifted the lids when touched by the
advancing troops, snd swarms of Infu-
riated bees, recovered from their tem
porary stupor, were let loose on the at-
