When the fidgety,
elderly lady
deplored the feet that she had in-
advertently entered the compart-
ment next to the engine, Arthur
Greeson was among the first to re-
assure her.
"The worst fn case of an asci
dent? Net a bit! Just as likely
for something to run into us from
behind. And, if anything did hap-
pen, well—"
"We'd all get our names in the
papers," observed a fellow -pas -
meg.
"H'm 1" remarked Mr. Greeson.
"I don't want that, thanks! Had
quite enough of it already.
"Oh 1" Tlie elderly lacy .leaned
forward. "You don't mean to say down again, breathing fast.

"Rather! Bad one it was, too 1
And a lot of other things have hap-
pened to me. Somehow, I can't

remember once—"
"Oh, go on, sir 1"
"I was walking by the river only
last summer when ' a boat upset
just' opposite. Four people in it,
Had totake off my coat, and spoil
the rest of a suit of clothes. None
of them could swim. That just
shows you!"
"And did you really dive in and
—and save them all?'
"What else could I do?" de-
manded Mr. Greeson. "Made me
have a medal for it, and all that
nonsense. That's what I meant
just now. Affairs of that sorb' -one
after the other!" He subsided
wearily.
"Extraordinery 1" The stout in-
dividual opposite assumed a pro-
foundly solemn air. "Tell us some
more! Have you ever been in a

A wink to the other occupants of.
the carriage escaped Mr. Gree -
eon's notice. He lowered his pa-
per again.
"Two; yes. Only one was no-
thing much."
"Let's have the yarn about the
other."
After a little hesitation Mr.
Greeson complied. He described
the burning of arow of ware-
houses, nad his own participation
In the work or rescue.
"Just my luck to be on the spot
and see those people at the win-
dows! Ever tried to 'get up a
staircase through a lot of smoke
and sparks? Don't yeu, if you can
help it,"
Bis listeners glanced quickly
from Mr, Greeson to one another
and back again. One or two lifted
their eyebrows. But the girl at
the far end of the compartment
seemed to shrink into her corner.
-She turned her head away as if in.

nodded many times, .regarding Mr.
Greeson with admiration.
"And how many lives," she
queried, "have you saved alto-
gether?"
"Don't know exactly. -Never
reckoned 'eat up,"
The stout. man coughed behind
his handkerchief.
"People talk a lot about the -dan-
gers of war, and suchlike," he re -

our friend here could prove that
you are never really safe, wherever
you are."
"That's true 1" confirmed Mr.
Greeson. "There was a mad dog
once, and one or two runaway hor-
ses. Then, ons night last Septem-
ber, I was lust going home—rather
late it was—along my road. .There
was a policeman ;litthe corner, and
I was nearly up to him, when three
fellows sprang out of a garden.

Mr. Greeson scanned them rath-
er suspiciously in turn; There
was something in their voices
whish almost suggested sarcasm.
But they were ready with grave
faces.
"About these newspaper re-
ports, I reckon you've been men-
tioned a good many times, for one
thing or another."
Before Mr. Greeson could reply,
the, girl inthe corner stirred, and
made a movement as if to stretch
out her hand. Then she looked
for aid. Tire began. to routter

After a time he wriggled free, and
stumbled to his feet.

across, bogan awkwardly, working
with one "arm only, to move the

"Thanks—thanks! Leave rue
alone now. Look for the others,
See if—"
He pointed witb a shaking enger.
Water was pouring through, the
roof now, hissing on the flames.
Mr. Greeson beat out the rest with
his hands, then, turning slowly
and painfully, started to clear the
compartment floor.
Desperately, he answered a hail
froth outside, and soon a rescuer
looked in through a crevice, assur-
beg thegi of a speedy release when
axes had been procured. The
stout man supported the girl and
the elderly lady as best he could in
his dazed condition, and watched
stupidly as Mr. Greeson labored.
Another passenger was visible
soon, and then—
"Don't let the women look !"
said Mr. Greeson, thickly,
They were reviving slowly. The
stout man tried to reassure them,
and dissuade them from turning
their heads. But the girl would
strain to follow Mr. Greeson's fig-
ure, though he interposed, as far
as he could, between her and what.
it was better that see should not

distance. "Only a little each,.

also. Then the stout man mur-
mured a request.
"Not for me!" returned Mr.
Greeson deliberately. "Drink it
up.! I'm all right!"
It seemed hours before they
heard axes at work near by. The
noise drew nearer gradually.
"Stand back! Get as far away
as you can!"
Willing hands helped the women
out. The stout man followed with
difficulty, falling shakily back-
wards. Mr. Greeson lifted his un-
conscious companion forward, but
he could not climb himself. Two
platelayers raised him gently.
"Ere, doctor, 'ave a look at
'im, when you've got a minute.
"The others first. Only want to
sit down for a bit," insisted Mr.
Greeson dully, and fainted.
The doctor bent over him. The
girl was at his elbow.
"Left arm broken, two ribs, bad-
ly burnt, too." The girl cried
out. "Quiet, please! I' 11 do what
I can. Then will you sit by him?"
"No one else shall 1" declared
the girl, almost fiercely.
She was still holding his limp
hand, when a small figure ap-
proached in wild alarm.
"My boy! Where's my boy?"
"Mrs. Greeson!" called the girl
soothingly, and comforting her,
explained.
Might ha' been worse. Yes,
miss, that's true enough." She
peered closer. "You! Jessie

fancy, you've only been away r"gilt-

"In the same carriage," the girl
answered, "He hadn't restores -
ed me. But you—you oases, io
have seen him. How brave he was.
Hurt like that, and yet he pits out
the fire, they tell me, and

Mr. Greoson's mother was weep-
ing.
"Just like my boy! Always mod-
est. Never a word about 'isself.
To 'ear 'im talk you'd never
think—"
The stout man behind her, catch-
ing the girl's eye, laid a finger on
his lips, and nodded hurriedly,
"He wouldn't boast, I'm sure,"
said Jessie Crane unsteadily. "You
must be very glad that—that he's,
your son!"
Always knew he was brave,"
stated the old woman proudly,
"though he's never 'ad a chance to

They seemed to ponder deeply.
"Funny thing I don't remember
ever seeing it."
"Nor me, either."
"You wouldn't remember,"
affirmed Mr. Greeson.
"No," agreed the elderly lady;
"there you're right. But I shall
keep a good look -out for it in fu-
ture. You do seem so unfortunate,
Mr. Greeson, about getting into
trouble."
There were a few sniggers. He
looked up sharply.
"I shouldn't call it trouble exact-
ly. Rather a nuisance, though et
must say that. Take people

step outside without having to drag
someone out of the, way of a taxi-
cabk. It gets a bit wearisome,
sometimes. Besides, a motor -'bus
broke my leg once, and the blessed
kid wasn't hurt a bit."
"Oh, hard luck!" chuckled the
stout man exhaustedly. The rest
grinned openly now, except the el-
derly lady. The 'girl in the corner,
too, flushed and bit her lip.
"You don't believe me?" de-
manded Mr. Greeson, turning from
side to side.
"Why, yes!" affirmed the elderly
lady. Most of the others laughed.
"If you'd come round home with
me, I could show you all the cut-
tings from different newspapers.
Not that I want to make out that
I'm anything wonderful, but—"
He fixed the stout man with his
eye. "You seem jolly amused,
What have you ever done in that
way, anyhow ?"
"Nothing at all, I grantyou.
Never been so unlucky, Where do
you live, sir, by the byl"
"The next stop's where I get out,
and at the rate we're going
now—"
Even as he spoke, the carriage
rocked strangely. All were jolted
from their seats. The elderly lady
screamed. The stout man, +strug-
gling, suddenly white-faced, to the
window, was thrown headlong.
There were shouts of alarm. Then
came a crash, and a violent shock.
The whole compartment heaved
and turned sideways. In passing
the points the engine had left the
lines.
A muffled explosion followed as
the first half of the wreaked train
came finally to rest against the
platform of the little, unimportant
station. Among Mr. Greeson's
fellow -passengers no one moves
until smoke and sparks began
rise from above them. Then the
stout man raised his head stupidly
from beneath the pile of splintered
woodwork which was pressing biro
down.
He was half buried and in com-

In the Middle. Ages spies were
everywhere, and in the middle of
the eighteenth century the French
army possessed a chief of spies, and
this post,continued in existence at
the ministry of war until the re-
volution.
In our own times practically
every foreign power has military
spies in its pay. There are contin-
ual incidents on the France -Ger-
man frontier—the arrest of spies
and the consequent national irrit-
ation—and more than once since
1870 such incidents have nearly led
to the outbreak of another war. •
Similarly it is notorious that. the

WHY HOUSE PLANTS FAIL..
An attempt to grow plants in the
living -room of the home frequently
results in their speedy death and a
keen disappointment to the grow-
er. Sienese demands that a tem-
perature of, sixty-five to seventy
degrees be maintained during the
daytime, with a drop of ten to fif-
then degrees during the night; fifty
degrees is as low a temperature at
mostplants can successfully stand.
Incidentally, these temperatures
are the beat for the health of the
family. '
Too often the temperature of tile

eighty degrees during the winter
months. Such temperatures are al-
most invariably areompanied- 'by a

MILITARY SPIES,
are naturally divided into two clas-
ses. On the ane hand there are the
men who are willing to betray
their own country for money pay-
ments, and who are rightly regard-
ed as infinitely despicable.
On the other hand, there are the
men who, for purely' patriotic
reasons, risk their lives and faro
the possibility of an ignominious
death in order to render invaluable.
services to their country. This sec-
ond class is, naturally, regarded
with admiration and esteem.
Of the patriotic spies, the most
famous is John Andre, who, during
the time of the American Revolu-
tionary war, obtained from (Saner -
al Benedict Arnold the plans for
the betrayal of West Point to the
British. Arnold was a traitor;
Andre was a patriot. He was ar-
rested and sentenced by Washing-
ton to be hanged.
There can be no .quarrel with the
sentence, since the custom of all
nations is that death :and a shame-
ful death—must be the lot of the
captured military spy. But Great
Britain showed its appreciation of
Andre's motives by the erection of
a monument to hismemory- in
Westminster Abbey, where his re-
mains are now interred. Tho late

erican, erected a statue to Andre

THE. MEDICINE OF CIUNA

MIXTURE OF DRUGS,
Different Dledlelniis are Ordered ea
Dilferent Days for the
Seethe Ailment.
To the Western mind there is nos'
thing more curious in Chinese cus-
toms than the persistency with
which the Celestials haveepelung
throughout the centuries to their
system of medicine, an odd mix-
titre, for the most part, of super'-
stition and hidebound eonservat'
ism.
In the Chinese ineteria medics
we find almost everykind of vege-
table, animal and mineral sub-
stance, and these reach about the
number of 1,000—a remedy, as
someone has put it, for each dis-
ease to which, from the Chinese
tiewpoiut, man is liable. Roughly
speaking, the Chinese medicines
are derived about a,s follows:—
Frommetals and stones 138 kinds
of physic are extracted; from 'eras
ses and vegetables, ouch as roots,
stubs, leaves, flowers and seeds; 360.
kinds; from .trees, 130 kinds arefound in the roots, bark trunk,
leaves, seeda, flowers; from the hu

tables, such as cabbages, turnips,,
and birds, 34 kinds;- from bugs,
worms, shellfish, snakes turtles
and flies, 100 kinds; from fruits, 40
kinds; from vegetables, such as
cabbages, turnips, melons, etc., 63
kinds. And to all these must be
added medicines derived from,
wheat, corn and other grains.

Rapid fluctuations of soil moisture
are extensively bad for the health

condition is dry see in the bottom

Generally a military spy captur-
ed during a time of peace is not
tried by court-martial, but by the
ordinary civil tribunals. The Ger-
man law against spies was passed
m July, 1903; the French law in
1866; and under this French law
the penalty is comparatively light
—from two to five years imp"ison-
went, with a fine of from $200 to
$1,000.
Incidentally, ono may note that
Europe was covered with Pitt's
spies at the end of the eighteenth
century and that every calamity
in France, from. the defeat of an
army to a tenement fire, was pop-
ularly ascribed to them.
In addition to the spy engaged
in the more or less honorable ser-
vice of discovering military secrets,
there is the police spy, whose busi-
ness it is to discover internal plots
against the ' existence of govern-
ments. Such spies have always
been employed by the pollee of ev-
ery nation, and they are most ne-
cessary and most numerous when
the government is autocratic and
opposition is underground.
During theunrest that followed
the Reformation in England the spy;
became, probably for the first
time, a national institution.
Burghley had an army of spies
smelling out Jesuits. The law
against the Puritans brought .the
inevitable squadron of traitors and
informers, and spying reached its
most infamous depth with the

The Chinese materia media is
indebted to the animal world to a
considerable extent. Nostrums are
made from the teeth and horns of
the "dragon," musk fromthemusk
deer, and the list also includes
bear's gall, deer's glue, sheep'a
milk, glue made from a black
mule's hide, ram's horn, mare's
milk, hoof of a white horse, thigh
of a bay ,horse, sheep's lungs,
horns,. kidneys ,and gall; deer's
horn pulverized, and the bones,
eyes and claws of a tiger. The
AIM, heart, brains, teeth and
blood of the dog are much esteem-
ed.
With respect to the practice of
the Chinese doctor it may be said
that, to Occidental notions, the
most curious of it is that the phys-
ician is employed by the year, and
that his salary stops when any of
the family to which he, ministers
becomes ill. In other words, he is
paid only for keeping them in good
health.
The Chinese doctor believes in
giving "like for like"—that is to
say, poison for poison—and so it

tice almost every element known to
