ways ready to put hla back to the wall
and light—in the opan If he couldn't
flght from ambuah. Bearded and al-
moat beaten now, he quivered in hla
wrath and shook a threatening flat
atraight In Reynolds' face.
"You're a big, blasted baby and an
Imbecile!" he cried. "You play the
quitter now and I'll make you regret it
to the last day of your life. I'll flght
and I'll win aa I alwaya have. You
can't keep a man with money In Jail.
Those three words can't tie grouped
in the same language! But what's the
use of talking," he added disgustedly.
"You can't lay down now if you want
to. You haven't got the nerve to send
that girl there to the penitentiary for
six or eight or ten yeara, to come out
a broken woman—not enough of her
left to suggest who she was. Do you

an, then? To your wife? For If we go
ahe goes with ua. I've told you that
and I mean It, so I guess my bluff'a

He turned partly to Dick and, as if
to cinch his threat, added:
"And I'm not sure but that our vir-
tuous friend hera-will be keeping ua
company. That'a law and you know
it."
"Bob," cried his wife, creeping to his
aide and cuddling against him aa if she
eaw in Brand tome hybrid monster
whom she really feared, "I'll go. Any-
thing you say, dear! I'm not afraid—
not afraid." Weeping softly, in obvi-
ous contradtation to her courageous
atand, she nestled closer to his side.
We stand upon the brink of a blgh
precipice and looking down are ob-
sessed with a atrange desire to Jump.
The thought of life has vanished in a
vale of endless depths—the hold on It
is infinitesimal. A bird flying over-

So Reynolda, possessed with tha

If necessary—anything to bring to Jus-
tice the man he blamed for all his
wrong* and for the awful climax that
bad Juat come, grew stronger iu his

used to dissuade him. Even Brand's

want to know what you're going to

Reynolds surveyed him coolly.
"I'll let you know. Brand. Just what
I'm goiag to do. Before you leave
here touight you'll have no doubt about
your course, but now 1 want a word
with my wife—alone. If you don't
mind, you aad Dick step up to my den
and I'll let you know when I'm ready.
It'll be only a minute or two."
When they bad gona he led ber to
tbe divan.
"Juat a aecond. dear," he aald ten-
derly. "I'll be right back and then
wa'll talk It over for tbe final aolu-
tlon."
Aa he paaaed Into the adjoining
room the telephone rang and Jane
went to it apprehensive of the worst.
It waa a newa association inquiring
for Reynolds.
"He's—not In," ahe faltered. "No.
I don't know Juat when he will be. Go-
ing away? No, I think not. You will
have to see him yourself. In the
morning? Yes,, that will be a good
time. Not tonight. That's all I can
say. Good-by."
She hung up the receiver with a
little gasp of relief. It had not been
as bad as she had expected. But It
was only a matter of time. She knew
that. Already the newspapers had
connected him with tbe catastrophe
and there would be no end to tbe in-
terviewing and dreadful questioning.
Bob returned and sat beside ber. He
had heard a part af her talk over the
phone and surmised the meaning of it.
but he made no mention of it.
"Jane, dear," be said softly as he
took her hand, "you have never been
sorry you married me, have you?"
"Why, Bob," she replied startled,
"what are you saying? You know 1
haven't and never could be."
"But, darling, 1 have made an awful
mess of It—of our life, I mean, for no
man could have asked for a better
wife. 1 have always loved you more
than anything in life. Perhaps—per-
haps," he cuntinued haltingly, "I have
loved you too much—that is, tpo much
fcr your own good. That is not impos-
sible, you know Jane. Love la always
flr6t, but there are times when we
must temper it with reason and re-
solve. You muat understand me.
sweetheart, for after this 1 want you
to know and feel that everything I've
done and everything I do is for you."
Some strange note of fatality in his
low tones alarmed her. Her startled
eyes searched his and she pressed
closer to his side.
"Why, even when you had taken a
stand with Brand and I felt ao—ao
much on the outside," he went on, "I
loved you as I never thought it was
possible for a man to love a woman."
"I never felt that way, dear," she
interrupted. "I mean, that 1 was stand-
ing with Brand. Bob, you know that,
don't you?" she cried appealingly. and
the tears of self-condemnation started
from her eyes while she begged—al-
most demanded tbe extenuation that
she knew was not rightfully hers.
"tes. I know it," he answered gently.
"And you see. sweetheart. I waa right
when I said I was to blame. Just me.

guilt in your heart and the dread of
capture ever at your door. You must
have liberty—a way to live your life
out In all the sweetness that must
come into it after all this suffering.
And you will know that I am always
with you, loving you and guarding you
the best way God will let me."
The Infinite tenderness of his voice
now unnerved her completely sq that,
though she saw or felt some dire omen
in his words, she was helpless to pro-
test them. She sank into his arms and
they were clasped together in one
long passionate embrace.
The lights of the room danced be-
fore her eyes as their Hps parted. She
could scarcely see him as he gently
drew away from her and stepped light
ly toward the telephone. He called a
number that was strange and mean-
ingless to her.
"Hello," be said, "police headquar-
ters? Connect me with the Ninety-
seventh, please.". A pause— "Hello!
Ninety-seventh? Send a man to four-
two—six Marion road— Yea, imme-
diately. It's a suicide."
For an Instant she was stunned, but
as she sprang toward him her cry of
horror mingled with the report of a
pistol She caught hia arm as be fell
and they sank to the floor together.
But she was too late. Reynolds had
paid the price and paid alone.
Dick cleared the half dozen steps
from the first landing at a bound and
Brand came stumbling after him. The
reporter knelt quickly beside them.
"Is he gone?" the millionaire panted
breathlessly.
The reporter'^ eyes swept over the
lifeless body of his friend and bis hand
went lightly to his .heart.
"Yes, he's dead," he answered soft-
ly. "I think he's been planning it a
long time and he knew Just how."
"It was tbe best thing he could do."
Brand said coolly. "The best for him-
self, for ber—and—for me. Suicide s
a confession, and that lets us out. I'm
going to get out of here, Meade. Take
care of the police and the papers."
Brand stepped quickly to the door
and passed out into the night
A low moan, tbe cry of a broken
soul, announced returning conaclous-
ness to the stricken wife.
"Jane." whispered Dick as he bent
over her and lifted ber gently to ber
feet, "shall I telephone?"
"No." ahe answered hoarsely. "He
did."
"To whom?"
"The police."
"Then they'll be here at once." He
helped ber back to the divan. "Listen.
Jane." he announced with an air of
command. "I'll do the talking. I waa
a witness; ill health. yM know, a col-
lapse from overwork. They may know

Modern Maid. In All Eaaentlala, Is a
Worthy Copy of H*r Mother
and Grandmothar.
Every now and again somebody
asks. In print, this question: "What
has beepme of the old-faahloned girl
that helped her mother wash the
dishes?" Probably tbe aame que*
tlon has been asked since the time
of Noah and will be asked until the
end.
Mary Lyon, when she provided for
tbe establishment of Mount Holyoke
college for girls, stipulated that ail
the household work In It should be
dDne by the students. That rule was
enforced rigidly up to a recent date,
when the directors and faculty, feel-
ing that the practice might have be-
come outworn, mad* the domestic
♦asks of the Institution optional for
the undergraduates.
But when the girls of Mount Holy-
oke were requested to announce their
wishes on the subject, 748 of the $00
elected to continue in the tasks of
sweeping corridors, washing dishes,
setting tables and making up beds.
There is no need to worry about
the American girl, even If she does
wear gowns the sight of which seems
to preclude all Idea of work on her
part. She isn't saying much about
it, but she is In all essentials the
sajne kind of girl our mothers and
grandmothers were.
Heart Needa Care.
Acute heart strain is practically Im -
possible in the young, healthy and
well-nourished adult, but quite likely
In all others. Once It occurs the heart
is Incapable of extra work and falls
when called upon to do It. The doctor
argues, therefore, that one cannot be
too careful to economize In the work
laid upon this organ.
-According to one physician, he who
retires to bed at ten instead of twelve
saves the heart 87f,000 foot pounds a
year. Lying down a half-hour lessens
Its labora In the same period by 219.-
000 foot pounds. If our Sundays were
spent in bed the yearly relief to our
hearts would amount to nearly one
million foot pounds.
He does not venture to even esti
mate the relief that would come were

To Tell When Rain Will Begin to Fall.
First, find tbe distance of the cloud
by noting how many seconds elapse
from the flash till the thunder, and
divide the number by 5. This wiO
give the number of miles. Then, after
waiting a number of minutes, do tbe
same again. This 'will show how
much nearer the storm is now, or how
fast It baa approached In so man#
minutes, and knowing how many
miles it Is distant. It can easily be as-
certained In bow many minutes rain
will begin to fall.—Exchange.
