His gaze was clouded, and his features suddenly seenaed to eotarect, giving greater prominettce to the cheek -bones and the teeth. He was seized with a sort of trete- Ming as ir he hada, fever. He bit his Iips, which had become livid, mid tried to Mile.

"And then there is no one but ttimself who could paint this Resur- rection." "You know this young man, then?" said the priest. "Ah, if you would be so good as to inform. us-" "Who he is? I cannot do that, since It is his wish to remain unknown, But I may at least tell you that the artist who bas done ,these paintings tor you is one of the most promising of the younger painters of the Frencle school -But I must see him; where is ite?" "He is away for a few due" "Away? And we are going to -mor - mw! No, matter. I must leave a Sign of my presence here for him." He took a Pencil from hie pocket- book, and proceeded to write on the whitewashed wall, first saying to the priest: "Will you permit me, Monsieur le Cute?" • "Go on," ansevered the latter. Then the stranger wrote these words below the "Resurrection" painted by Pierre: "Et idem resurrexit Petrus," and underneath, "Davidoff." Then turning to the euro: "When he returns," he said, "shotir hint these words. He will know what they mean." He then took leave of the priest, and returning to tee inn, said to his com- panion: "My dear count, you madeva mistake in not coming out with me; you have missed something very curious." "What is that?" "I will tell you when we are on board. While we are here it must be a secret." 'The two traveller» 'then lighted their cigars, entered cue carriage, and proceeded on their way. Th,e next day but one, Pierre re - awned from his expedition with the brother-in-law of Agostino, bringing with him a pair of pretty silver ear - zings for Marietta and a buckle for her mother. He kreakfasted early, and was proceeding to work, when the cure, pushing open the glass door of the parlor, entered. "Ala Mensieur le Cure;" cried Pierre. "To what are we indebted. for this pleaSure?" "A message with which I have been intrusted for you." "Alit And by whom?" "A stranger." Pierrets forehead clouded, and in a voice that trembled slightly, he said: "Let me hear what it is." "If you will accompany me to the church," said the priest, "yeiti will learn it more •quickly and more fully than I could tell you." "I am at your orders." lie took his hat and went reit with the priest. For some time they walked on in silence. As they were nearing the great square the cure said: "A stranger has been looking at your painting, and he has assured me that you bave enriched our church with a picture of great value." Pierre did not attewer. He nodded without speaking anti hastened his steps as if eager to learn what was awaiting him. , He crossed the nave of the church, stopped before his "Resurrection," and with an emotion which he could not conceal read the Latin. inscription on the wall :"Bt 'dein resurrexit Petrus. -Davidoff." He heaved a re- peated In a choking voice, "Davidoff," and then relapsed into silence. The cure, translating the Letlet phrase said behind him: "'And ire the same weer, *Pierre has Penn from the dead: Then a miracle has been wrought for you? My dear child, we must praise the mercy of God." • Pierre passed his hand over his forehead, smiled at the priest, who regarded hita with astonishraent, and in a grave voice said: "Yes, a. miracle has been wrought /or me, and God be praised for it." He relapsed °nee more into silent Meditation as if he were recalling the past. Then he said softly: "Monsieur le Chre, I thank you for, having takert this trouble. What you have tOld me has a profound interest for me. Ati revoir, Monsieut le Cure." And with a stow' step and sees bent upon the ground, he returned to the house of Agostino's mother. On the following day one of the acolytes brought him. a letter which had been pested at Ajaccio, tlearing ilia address: "Monsieur Pierre, care of elonsieur le Ottre Torreveceltia." Ile opetted the letter with entotion. It contaieed these lines: "My Dear Friend: -You are still among the living; a more agreeable surprise could not have awaited me.

Slowly ' ethe image of .lacques rose before hinh hie fetee no longer pale and gloomy, but radiant with health and youth. He walked with, buoYant step on the verdant terrace, of the house at.Beau- lieu. All nature bad awakened at the balmy breath of spring, and 'Jacques, like the plants and the flowers, seeta- ed animated with new life, Suddenly Juliette appeared beside him, and now It Was she.wito was ill and sad, lender her beautiful eyes were black rings, her cheeks were hollow, and in her smile there was the heart.reneling sweetness of a last earewell, A shudder' passed • through Pierre. It seeinecl to him as tf the gaze ef the young girl, fixed upon the sea, sought 'vainly in its blue waters for scene - thing that was not there. He saw this girt whose affeetton, reciprocated for a raoment, lie had afterward disdain - ea, dying slowly of griet for his lose. He heard a voice murmur beide "It is you who are the cause ot her tears, of her suffering, of her laoguor. You have just heard it -she is dying beeause she believes that you are dead. You had but to utter a word, and this innocent heart, filled with your image, would have opened to receive you, You bad happiness and peace In your grasp, but you flung them recklessly away. Why delay longer in trying to regain- them? Wili you let her evhom you love perish? You have only to ge to her and $he will revive again. Come, begin life anew. The future is yours, since you are loved." He heaved a sigh and tears sprang to hie* eyes -the first he had shed since the tears of rage and sbame of which Clemence Villa had,, been the cause.. But he did not long give way to bis emotion.lie wished to examine his own heart, and judge himselt with impartial severity. Was he puritied anal regenerated by this voluntary withdrawal from all he had held dear? If" temptation carne.in his way would he have the strength to resist' it? Ile trembled. A pale, dark . face with gleaming eyes rose before him. From its lips came a sardonic burst of laughter as on the night when be bad resolved to' OW his life, What was she laughing at, showing her white teeth and the dimples at the corners - of her mouth? Was it at him? Was she then so sitre of her power to bring him to her feet, the day she should take it into her head to do so? Was he, then, her slave? He feared so -his weakness had been so great, his follies so disastrous, his cowardice so complete, his fall se low. At the thought of again corning into the toils of this cruel and heart- less woman a cold sweat broke out epee his forehead and his heart beat with anguisla He fancied if he saw death before him a second time he would again choose it in preference to such humiliation. He dropped his head between his -hands dejectedly, and, gazing at the sea which was now reddened by the Splendors ot the sun- set, surrounded by the peace and the grandeur of nature, he fell into a re- very. Gradually his thoughts grew clearer, and he, who had not prayed since his childhood, seeing 'himself so solitary, so sad and so forsaken; raised his eyes to heaven in prayer. He asked nothing for himself. However hard and wretched his own lot might be, he eccepted it without a murmur. But this pure and geotle creature- was she not innocent of Mame, and did she not deserve to be sparedfrom sofferiug. For her he implored -hope and peace. Since he had the happiness .to be loved by her, let her at least be endowed with the strength to live until his heart should be washed free from its stains. Could Divine Justice refuse her this peace? In the midst 61 the soli- tude surrounding Itim be alloWed him- self to utter a few werds of prayer. Suddenly his attention was arrested by an occurrenee which syreleolized itt an instant his fears and hopes. 1AFETY41100FORTILME From a poiet of rock jutting out into the sea at his feet a dove baa just flown in terror. An eagle followed close behind trying te capture her. She made desperate efforts to escape, but the bird of prey gained upon her steadily, uttering a shrill cry at every stroke of his powerful wings, ' Pierre, Struck bY the sight, said to himself, "Let this be a sign. If the eagle eep. tures his prey, all 1$ over with Juliette and me. If- the dove 'succeeds in es- caping, then I may hope to appear before her again, worthy of happi- ness." • Froth ehe moment in which Ite thus succinctly formulated the problem t:f his destine Pierre, in breathless Sas- Pense, followed with his eyes the °oh- fliet between the two hires. The eagle had lowered his flight, and was now close to the dove ahe almost directle above her, Menacing her With his sharp beak arel livid claws. Terrified, the poor bird directed its flight toward a elump of oaks, hoping to take refuge there, But her ferocious ettemy, divin- ing het intention, hastetted his• flight toward her. Pierre, his heart Op- pressed, his hands trembling, loaged to give aonle of his strength to the dove: he saw the Mornertt approach in 'which she Must succemb to her pursuer. Just as the rapacious -bird was about to seize his viatitn, a shot watt heard.

The mean expectation of -lire at birth in the Case of males, aa shown by 'the last English life table (1891-1909), is 44-13 years, as contrasted with 39.91 years' value given in the life table based on the experience of 1838 to 1854. But we have no proof that this in- crease is due to any. crreumstancea af- fecting the conditions of Me of adults, because the Mean after lifetime of per- sons over 45 in both sexes, and over 3$ in the case of males, has either remain- ed sensibly constant or even diminished, For • instance in the case of males the expectation of lite at the age of 35, as Shown In the last life -table is 29.24 yearsr the 1838-1858 table gives 29.40. At the age of 45 the corresponding figures 'axe 22.20 and 23.76; at the age of 55, 15.79 and 16.45, and at the age of 65, 10.31 and 10.82. .A. partial explanation is offered by the probability that many weaklings who were formerly destroyed by zymotic dis- eases of tuberculosis in early life now survive to adult age, and that the life table values reflect the consequence of this sleekening of selection. - London Times. rrob Continued.) •••••••••••••••inmuomo..........

Pierre Lord, an Arnerican of 'French ancestry, has ;lust found that an ordin- ary red clay flower -pot can be made use of to keep water, butter and other things at refrigerator temperatures in tropical climaxes or the hottest of Aug- ust days. While an ordinary flowerpot will do, any sore of clay -jars, eorous vessels or eetriroon unglazed earthenware pots and receptaclet may. answer: All you need do is to moisten a rag or bag cloth with strong salt water and keep it over the top of the flowerpot. The ends should dip down into a soup dish or basin oti which the flowerpot stands. This training dish must be kept full of Water all the time. A dark, cool pantry, just where you would keep an ice ceoler or a refrigerator, is a good place to keep the clay jar or pot. Ai:other way described by 0. P. Saunders is to wrap a layer of burlap Around a porous jar, The water or butter oe what not 1$ put in the jar and it Is exposed to a cuteent of air, say, on a dark window Sill with win- dows open and shutter closed. The water inside the porous pot per - :wires its way in a microscopic ntols- ture through te- the outer Surface.
