"But how did you know, India?" mule

elder girl'will to dominate her's,
"You dropp-ed the note which Clar-
ence Neville had written you asking you

"We will not talk any more about it
until we reaelz the hotel," said India.
"We are already attracting attention.
Pull your veil closely down over your

"What if he its not yet at the hotel,
India?" breathed Btub, faintly
'Then youmust wait there la patience
till he does come to you," returned India,
impatiently.
Trembling with intense agitation which
she could not control, Barbara allowed
her cousie to lead and advise her. The
excitement Wag 80 great,thetwo dark -
robed figures had little difficolty in
gaining tweezes to the hotel unoleserved,
and as silently gained their rOOMS.
To Bab, all that had occurred since
he had been standing within those
wal/s bat a few hours before seemed
more like a dream titan a reality.
She was only a thoughtle.se, impuls-
ive .girl then; now she wets a bride -in
seeret,
"How will we know whether (Ilex-
enee is ein the hotel or not it we do
not send down to the offiee and in-
quire?" cried Bab, wringing her hands
and eornmencing th grow frantic aar,•ain
quite ets sown as the door was closed
behind them.
"You must control your agitation and
impatience until to -morrow," declared
Indaa, using a harder, sterner tone than
Bab had ever known from her Bps.
"I cannot, Indie," tau moaned, "1
cannot, I could not like until morning,
not knowing his fate, whether he is
dead or allye. The suspense would
surely kill me, India!"
A strange gleam lit up the Freneh
girl's eyee.
"if you will not go down to the of

flee to make inquiries, I 'mist," added
Bab, hysterically.
"You will. do nothing of the kind,"
returned India Haven, turning the key
quk.kly in. the loek, withdrawing it,
and transferring it to her pooket, and
turning abaut coldly and facing the
frightened girl,
With a Litter cry, Bab threw up her
little white hands and fell at India's feet
in a dead &wool'.
With time quick motion of a tigress,
India spurned her from her with her
foot, 'on the soft, faultitee neck.
"You have won him from me, Barbara
Haven," he muttered, "but I will part
you if he still lives, as surely ste night
fallowe day! I swear it!"
CHAPTER 'XXXI.
For some motaelIte India Haven stood
'gazing, down upon the white, upturned
!nee of 13ab without nutielag the leiteit
effort toward attempting to revive her.
"Ilie bride!" she uritid; "she, with her
pink and white baby (ace, luol won the
love whieh Is with ell my beauty, failed

that than return to her." Madly as she

On the day after Bab had been strick-

"What do you propose to do?" she

GERMAN DISCIPLINE.
—0 --
Even the Boys Respect Law and
Order,
One of the things which apparently
eecape the attention of most scrib-
bling travellers In Germany is the dou-
ble line of fruit trees along the public
roads. There are several thousand
miles of"these trees on either side of
public roads in northern Germany.
Most of them, are apple trees.
You know what would happen to
those apple. trees in any American
State? Boys would pick the fruit
green, too impatient to wait for it to
ripen, and likely enough they would
break down the trees getting the fruit,
What happens 1n Germany-? The pub-
lic authorities .sell the fruit crop to
contractors at from *200 to $500 per
mile and apply the proceeds of the sale
to the upkeep of the roads. Boys do
not steal the apples, Nor is it liecea-
sary to maintain a policeman every
100 feet to prevent such mischief,
Why are the German boys so much
more respectful of property rights than
American boys? Is the difference
racial? I hardly think so. It's a dif-
ference of training probably. Pm in-
clined to believe the universal military
traloing, with its constant strict in-
sistence upon obedience to law and or-
der and the statue? element of moral
training in the publie school cuff'.
