She watched the boys' faces as ehe played and recited and soon learned the knack oi putting the smile Into her voice. "It was easy when I started broadcasting." she went on. "I Just thought of the thousands who were listening and Just smiled." Her success has opened a new field for women. For other broadcasting stations have replaced their men announcers with girls. It was time for the program to ptart. Mis Koewlng tiptoed to a cabinet on which stood a little Instrument about five inches high, pressed a button and begin announcing. There was no bulky equipment to scare the speaker, no cangling wires to confuse her. The room was Just like a simple music studio with Healthwin Boys i

EWING. ANNOUNCING. She soon had to announce the next number a violin solo by herself. A preps of a button to signal the operators above, a ha.sty shift cf position, and Miss Koewing; was standing before the microphone playing to her unseen audience. No applause greeted her effort. But a signal was i flashed that she was wanted on the rhone. A fan, many mllea away, wanted her to repeat the number. She acknowledged the request with a smile through the air. ly fleet pair of heels he showed, taking into account his heaviness of body. Duchemin saw him swerve from his firft course and t-teer for a vehicle standing t some distance evidently the conveyance which had brought the s:ght5eers to view the spectacle of Montpellicr-Ie-Vieux by moonlight. W'aiting in the middle of a bro4 avenuo of misshapen obelisks, a dilapidated barouche on either Hide its pole drooped two sorry specimens' of crowbait. And their pained amazement was so unfeigned that Duchemin laughed aloud when the fat rogue bounded to the box. snatched up reins find whip and curled a cruel lash round their bony flank;. Since it tock them fomeirncment to come to their senses and appreciate that all th:s was not an evil dream, Duchomln's hands were c'ut;hing the back of the carriage when the hoies broke suddenly Into an awkweird, lumbering gallop. The moment Puch? rein fovnd his cwn feet in the pr; ng vehicle he leaped on the shoulders of the other nnd dragged h:m backwards from the box. What followed was not very clear to him, a melange of Impressions. The mock-American fought like a devil unchained. The animals At the pole ran away In good earnest, that wretched barouche rolled and pitched like a rudderless shell in a crazy Fea. the two men floundered In Its well like fih In a pail. They fought by no rules, with no science, but bit and kicked and gouged and wrenched and struck at rctahion offered and each to the best of his ability. Duchemin caugnt glimpses of a face hideouslj' distorted with working features and dLigurcd with smears of soot through which insane eyeballs rolled and glared in the moonlight. Then a hand like a vice gripped hia windpipe, he was on his bacK. his head overhanging the edge of the floor, a thumb was feeling for one of his eye. Yet It could not have been much later when he and his opponent were standing and fwaying as one. locked in an embrace of wrestlers. Uill. Duchemin knew as many tricks of hand-to-hand f.ghting as the other, perftaps a few more. And then he was, no doubt, in far better condition. At all events the fellow was presently at his mercy, in a. hold that gave one the privilege of breaking his back at will'. A man of mistaken scruples. Duchemin failed to do so. A thurst and a kick. UUKla1CuS (Continued From Our Last Ismic) Darney gazed into the face of Lucas Cnllen who t-tared at him with eyes widened, with jaw dropped; the dim. pink light upon his skin lost a tint as the blood went from Lucas Cullen's face; and Darney knew that he had recognized the voice. "Direct voice!" some one gasped in awe: and others whispered it. "We're hearing a direct voice! That's her Toice! I knew her!" Der.net Cullen had recognized It and dropped down into his seat, astounded; his mother Jcr.ew the voice; and Jaccard; most certainly of all, Lucas Cullen continued in the convinction that or.e dead was speaking. "I am going to tell the account of Luc a- Cullen and hi? family and ot myself and my son." said the voice clearly and steadily. "It begins far back; yet is brief enough." So far, even to Barney, the voice seemed to proceed from no located source. He had believed his mother, present among the veiled women at the left of the rows where th lights had gone out; but such quality cf her tone that it seemed not enunciated from one spot but Pervasive throughout the room. Every one was .silent. "Tine beginning," continued the voice, "was whta X. was a child In
which h enjoyrd infinitely, fent the ; brute spinning out to land on hin' head. ; The f 11 should have broken his i nck. At the wor?t is should have

The third knelt be:de tho --upine man. hut ros quickly as Puchemin drew near, and came to m'-et him. In this one he recognized her to v.hose salvation Chance had first led him. and now found time to appre-, c.ate a face of pallid loveliness. In-j telligent and composed, while she; addressed him quietly and directly. An exquirite voice. English, he guessed, or possibly American, but much at home, in France.... i "Monsieur d'Auhrac -has been wounded, a knife thrust. It will be necttvary to get him to a surgeon) as quickly a possible." "If monsieur would be so good. j Duchemin knelt beside the man. who welcomed him with open eyes and a wry emile that was almost as faint a his voice. ! "It is nothing monsieur a clean cut in the ami, with some Ioa-j of blood." The young girl In whose lap rested the head of Monsieur d'Auhrac sat 'back and watched Duchemin with .curious, grave eyes in which tnace3 of moisture glimmered. "Had the animal at my mercy. I thought." d'Aubrac apologized, I when fuddnly he drew that knife, struck me and broke away." "I understand," Duchemin replied. "But don't talk. You'll want all your strength, my friend." With his pocket-knife he laid open the sodden sleeves of coat and shirt, exposing an upper arm stained I dark with blood that welled in ugly jets from a, cut both, wide and deep. "Artery fevered," he announced, and straightened up and looked about, at a loss. "My pack ?" ' ' The woman who had spoken to him found and fetched it from no great distance; and Its contents enabled Duchemin to Improvise a tourniquet and when the flow of blood was checked, a bandage. With d'Aubrac disposed as comfortably as might be In the barouche, Duchemin turnend to find the other woman at hlf elbow. To the eldest he offered a bow suited to her condition and a hand to help her Into the barouche. "Madame The gentle inclination of the aged head which acknowledged his courtesy was as eloquent of her quality as he found the name which she gave him In quavering accents. "Madame de Sevenie, monsieur." "With madame's permtesion: I am Andre Duchemin." "Monteur Duchemin his placed U3 all deeply in "his debt. Louise " The girl In the carriage looked up and bowed, murmuring. "Mademoiselle de Montalals. monsieur: my granddaughter. And Eve " She turned to the third, to her whose voice of delightful accent was not In Duchemin's notion wholly French: "Madame de Montala. my daughter by doption. w:idov of my grandson, who died gloriously for his country at La Fere-Champe-noise."

My father was Richard Drane. He cleared a farm In the woods, married a Gentile girl from Big RapMs, and was living an honorable, useful life when he crossed the path ot Lucas Cullen who recently had arrived to make his fortune in the forest." The source of the voice was discovered. It came from that darkened end of the room where Barney had supposed hie? mother .to be; and as people craned about or stood to see the speaker, she arose and, having cast off her veil and the dark coat she had worn, she stood a little apart, dressed all in white. "Mrs. Cullen! Agnes! Mrs. Oliver Cullen! She's here! That's she! Why did he How changed! How could it be " ! "My father." ehe said, "had aban-I

thing at all for the frro.it trees on the state lands. They bought one section and et up a raill and cut over the square mil's all aroun I. Lucas Cullen wa? en of these men.
My father bought from th- government five hundred acre of standing timber which he found that Lucas Cullert wart cutting. This caused trouble for Cullen when nv father askd for a refund on his purchase money. "Hut th" Mormon Drare whatever lies Cullen told agnir.st him had one wife only. She was my mother. Cullen spread about lies. One of the lies, which proved in the end the most dangerous, was that the Mormon had lust for the wife ol another lumberman. Henry Lavier. As fhe spoke. Acnes Cillen came forward and showed herself more plainly In the UshtT No on' not even Lucas Cullen. in hi ßuilt-i clouded consciousness believed hoi a phantom now. "Lucas Cullen told the lie about Richard Drar.e and Laylor's wife only to harm the man who had made him trouble and to injure a rival; for Henry Laylor had bu.lt a mill oniy a. lew miles from Cur. en s near. a little pl.Tce called Galilee. "Neither would let the other drive him away; so they fought till Henry Laylor was burned out: and. as you have just heard, he was hilled. "Lucas Cullen had that fire set; he- met near Galilee a man in hb l ay Quinlan and sent him to light shavings upwind from LaylorV? mill. When it was known that Laylor was killed, Lucas Cullen said that the man who had set the fir? was the Mormon Drane who wanted to kill Laylor to pet his wife. It was a savage, lustful lie of the Fork which excited men like to believe: they went to get the Mormon and lynch him; then Lucas Cullen partly to save Drane from being murdered. let us think, but partly also to stop suspicion swinging to his guilty sell made a great play for justice and for a trial for the Mormon and stopped the lynching and perjured Richard Drane Into the cell where he died my father for a crime which Lucas. Cullen and his man Quinlan had done. "Is it not so, Lucas Cullen? Stand up and deny It, If not so!" She stopped and waited for answer; but Lucas Cullen neither stirred nor replied. My father did not die for many years." Barney heard his mother say. "My mother worked constantly to get my father free. She died when I was a young girl, and I took up the useless attempts. I changed my name and came to Chicago to watch Lucas Cullen; he left Chicago and built his house at St. Florentin; and I went to live near there. "That was the summer before hi?

IVChenal swore to help me; he was hot In my cause." sh continued. "He swore to Justify my fathr and punish Lucas Cullen. First, he would marry me. I loved and believed him: p?rhaps he believed himself in those days; I was very your.g and he was ycur.g and we went to a priest ' Barney began to make his waj toward her. Now she was stripping hrr bcfo:e thc?e Paring people. r.ot to punish Lucas Cullen, but to acknowledge him, her-son. "Lucas Cuilen learned of it. but gave out that hir fruejt had gone on a hunting trip." she pressed on. "He foliowe-d and finally found us. His money, of course, was an Influence; I had nothing; De Chenal owed two million francs. Lucas Cullen made his escape ef.sy. I was under age; He married De Chenal to his daughi tor. gave him money and packed him off. It was easier than before! to make me an outcast. The next spring, my son was born." now now restored to me!" So her son caught her In his arms, as her strenrth collapsed; with the aid of some woman, unknown to him hut who lovingly called her "Agnes' and kissed her cheek, he bore his mother through the door at the back of the room and away from the hubbub behind t aorn to where they could be quiet and alone. CHAPTER XVI I L A week later Ethel was In Chicago, rejoining Barney and Cousin Agnes and learning that Lucas Cullen. sr.. had mysteriously disappeared. He had not been seen after leaving the seance. Ethel and Barned married six weeks later, at the old house at St. Florentin. Bennet and Julia and their mother came up for the service, after which Barne-y and Ethel went west.
