You would have though: by her act- ions that Florence had just died The sight of her stirred the eaturoine lips of the butler into a smile. But he did not remonstrate with her. In fact, he rather envied her freedom in emotion. Man cannot let go in that fashion; it is a sign of weakness, and be dared not let even Suson see any sign of weak - nese in him. Sa the reporter had found her and she was safe end Round and on .her way to New Ynt•k ? .fioawing by this time something of the reporter's coma agP, be was eager to learn how the event end come ahout. When he had not heard a telephone message frnm Norton in 48 hours, be had decide, that the Blark Hundred bad finally succeeded in getting hold of him. It h id been something of a blow; for while ho looked with disfavor upon the reporter's frank regard for hie charge be apeteciated the fact that.

Suddenly, not iu°itig devoid of a ANrrni of da•y humor, Jotted stepped over to the tele'pbone and called up her highttot,d, the Princess Perigof$. **Who is it?" He was forced to admit, however, reluctantly, that the woman had G marvelously floe speaking voice. eIt. is Jones, medium," 'Jones?" Me. Hargreaven butler, uiaibttn." "U ! You have news of Fioruuce ?" "Yes." It will be an embarrassing day for humanity when some one in- vents a photograpic apparatus by which two persons at the twoends of the telephone may observe the facial expressions of each other. "What id it? Tell it quickly. "Florence has been found, and she is on her way back to New York. She was found by Mr, Norton, the report- er." '°I am so glad! Shall I come up at once and have you tell ore the whole amazing stort ?" "It would be useless, madam, for I knowing nothing except what I learn- ed from a telegram I have just receiv- ed. But no doubtsome time this evening you might risk a call," "Ring up the instant she returns. Did she say, what train ?" " No, madam," lied Jones, smiling. He hung up the reciever and stared at the telephone as if he - would force nis gaze in and through it ea the woman at the other end. Flesh and blood ! Well, greed wasstronger than that. Treacherous cat! Let her play; let her weave her nets. dig her pits. rhe day would come, and it was not far distant, when she would find that the mild -eyed mon-goose was just as 4eadly as the cobra, and far more cunning. The heads of the Black Hundred must be destroyed. Those were the orders. What good to denounce them, to send them to a prison. from which. with the aid of money and a tremen- dous secret political pull, they might readily find their way otit ? Tnev must be exterminated, as one kills t ff the poisonous plague rats of the Or- ient. A woman ? In the law of re- prisal there was no sex. Shortly after the telephone episode (which rather puzzled the princess) she 'received a wire from Braine; which announced the fact that F1gr•- ence and five had oacaped and were enuring to New York on train No, 25, and advising her to met t the train. en route. She had to fly about to do t, When Capt. Bannock released Braine, he had been in no enviable fraise of mind, " Tricked. fooled by the girl, whose mind was as uncloud- ed as bis own ! She had succeeded in bribing a coal stoker, and had taken hire unawares. The man had dooned the disguise he had laid out for shore purpoaaes, and the blockhead Bannock had never suspected. He had not re-. cognizsd Norton at all. It wan only when Bannock explained the histnry of the shanghaied stoker that he real ized his real danger.

Thie mendling reporter aimed at We ease and elegance. He left the freighter at soon as a boat could carry him ashore. The fugitives would make directly for the railroad, and thither he went at top speed. to arrive ten minutes too late “Free!" said Florence, as the traiu began to increase its speed. Nertau reached over and vatted her hand. Then he eat back with a sudden shock of dismay, Ho dived- -a hand into a pocket. into another. and an- other. Tne price of a telegram he had sent to Jones was all he had in the world ; . and he had burrowed that from a friendly stoker, In the excite meat he had forgotten all abous each a contingency as the absolute need of money. - "Florence, I'tn afraid we're going to have trouble with the conductor when he comes," He pulled out his pockets suggestive• ly.

The Pullman conductor was not ere pecially polite; but stoney was money, and the stockbo!dere, waiting for %heir dividends, utlade it impossible for bine to reject it, 'The regular con- ductor paid them no more attention than to grumble over changing a $20 bill. So, while these two were hurrying on to New fork, the plotters were butrying east to meet them. The two trains met and stopped at the sante station shout eighty tulles from New York. The princess, accompaoted: ny Vroon, who kept well in the back- ground, entered the car occupied by thetwo castaways. In the mirror at the rear of the car Norton happened to .cast an idle glance, ' and he saw the princess. Vroon, however, escaped his eye. "Be careful, Florence," he said, "The princess ie in the car. The game begins again. Pretend that you sus- pect nothing. Pretty quick work on their part. And that's all the more reason why we should pity the come- dy well. Here she comes. She will recognize you, throw her arms around you, and show all manner of effusive- ness. Just keep your head and play the game." "She lied about you to me." "No matt )r," "0!" cried the princess. She seiz- ed Florence in a wild embrace. She was an inimitable actress, and Nor- ton could not help admiring her. "Your butler telephoned me! I ran to the first train out. And here you are, back safe and sound! It is wonderful. Tell me all about it. What an adventure! And, good heavens, Mr. Norton, where did you get these clothes? Did you find her and rescue her? What a newspaper story you'll be able to make out of it alt! Now, tell me just what hap- pened." She sat down on the arm of Florence's chair. The girl had steeled her nerves against the touch of her. And'yet she was beautiful How could anyone so beautiful be warlord! "Well, it began like this," said Florence; and she described her ad• venture, omitting, to be sure, Braine'a part in it. • She had reached that part where they bad been rescued by Captain Bapnock when a thundering, grind- ing crash struck the words from her lips. The three of them were flung violently to the'side of the car amid splintering wood, tinkling glass, asp the shriek of steel against steel. A low wail of horror rose and died away as the oar careened over on its side. The three were rendered unconscious and were huddled together on the floor, under the uprooted chairs. Vroon had escaped with only a slight out on the band from flying gime, He climbed over the chairs and passengers with a single object in view. He saw that all three he was interested in were in•eensible. He quickly examined thew and saw that they had not received serious in juries, He bird but little time. The princes/3 and Norton would heats to take their ebunce with the other passengers. Resolutely he stopped and lifted Florence in hie arm and crawled oat of the car with her. I+ was a difficult task, but he managed it. Outside, in the contu,ion, no one paid any attention to him. So he threw the unconscious girl over the shoulder and staggered ontoward the road, It was unfortunate that the accident had occurred where it did. Five miles beyond was the station mat cod for the arrest of Norton as an ab- ductor, and the taking in charge of Florence as a rebellious girl who had run away from her parents. If be could reach the Swedes hut, where his confederates were in waiting, the game was his, After struggling along for half an hour it carriage was spied by Vroon, and he hailed it when it reached his side. "What's the trouble, mister?'' ask- ed the farmer. "A wreck on the , ailroad. My daughter is badly hues, and I must take her to the nearest village. How ftp is it?'' "About three miles." "•I'll give you twenty dollars for the use of that rig of yours,." "Oan't do it, mister." "But it's a case of humanity, sit!" indignantly. "You are refusing to aid the unfurtunate.". The farmer thought it over for a moment, "all right. You can have the buggy for twenty dollars. When you get to the village take the nag to Doc Sanders' livery. He'll know what to do." "Thank you. Help me in with her." Vroon drove away without the least intention of going toward the village. As a result, when Florence come to her senses '•he found herself surrounded by strange and ominous faces. At first she thought that they had `taken her from the wreck out of kindoes-; but when she sew the cold, impassive face of the man Vroon she closed her eyes and lay back in the chair.

This would be wisdom on your part, but are you sufficiently insured if you stay at hone? At the battle of Gettysburg, the blood- iest of the civil war, the loss of life was 55 out of 1,000 men engaged. This means that a managed 49 has no more chance of living to 53 than a soldier had of com- ing out of Gettysburg alive. Tact the first Bull Run battle and we find that the proportion of deaths ,,va•+ ocluivelant to the ordinary mortality among men front ages 20 to 81. • The Mntual Life Assurance Co. of Can• ada will assume this risk for you at a very !ow premium on the popular Term Life plan.
