[CONTINttKD FROM VlWit PAOJ5 %1 larfty, and it is wonderful how respei ful those men in the commercial room were, as a body. Indeed, the whole of the time I wa» on the "road" I had scarcely any distinct act of rudeness or incivility to complain of, which issay ing a great deal in these fin-de-slecle da78'

My usual custom was to arrive at town as early in the day as possible, and if I had many cuwlomers to call on, to engage abed for tuo night at a leading commercial hotel immediately on arrl val. But on the occasion of which I am now going to writ®, 1 arrived at Wayborough, a small country town not far from the great manufacturing center, late in the evening. I betook myself at once to my usual hotel, and ordered supper. "I suppose you can give me No. 24, the room I generally have?" I remarked casually to the waiter, while discussing my chop. "Bed, miss! We haven't abed vacant In the house. I don't believe there's one to let to-night in the whole town!"

I stared at the man in stupid nonoomprebension, almost doubting the evidence of my ears. "Don't you know as how it's the h'agrlculture show, miss?" he continued, in a tone of mild surprlae. "Bless your life, there hasn't been a bed to be bad here for the last week, for love or money, nor won't be neither till the show is over."

Here was a dilemma! I had completely forgotten the show, and had come on to Wayboroogh from in full expecta tlon of getting my usual accommoda tion. What was to be done? Why bad I not romalned at until the morning? "The only thing Is to get back to Cas qulokly as possible," I said, rising to the occasion. "Kindly get me a time table."

But alas, when the time table was brought, it only served to reveal the sad fact that the last train for the night bad departed on its way half an hour before, and tbut, unless I wished to walk twenty miles there was every present prospect of my spending the night in the streets under the shelter of a friendly doorway. Tbe idea was anything but soothing. "Is there nowhere could go?" I asked, in despair. "Not as I knows on," tbe man answer ed. "Folks are sleeping three and four together in the bedrooms, and even in tbe sitting room, on tbe sofas and floors." "Well, can't I do that, too? A pillow on a hard floor would be proferable to stopping in tbe street." "I don't believe we've hardly standing room in the whole house, but I'll go to tbe mlsoes, and bear what she says."

As soon as the waiter had left, a little elderly man, who had been seated at a neighboring table during our colloquy, contentedly sipping bis modest pint, now rose, and In a somewhat mysterious manner advanced towards me "Beg pardon, ml&s," he began, in a half whispgr, a«i if afraid of eavesdroppers. "Tt Isn't right for the likes of yon to go about looking for lodgings at this time of night, with the prospect in tbe end of not findlug any. I know you I have often seen yon here before, and I could let you have a room on a pinch, being as you're a respectable young lady, and not likely to do any harm. But be fore we come to terms, I must ask you this question—can you hold your tongue?"

Somewhat astonished as I was at this mode of address, I nevertheless modestly replied that I thought I was as well able as any of my much-maligned sex— in that particular—to keep my own counsel. "Because you see, miss, begging your pardon again, it's this way, and that's why I didn't speak before tbe waiter, they are all such gossips. I am the caretaker of the Assise Courts inKing Street., and of course there is his Lordship the Judge's bedroom there, hich be always uses when in Way borough I am most strictly forbidden to let it be used by anyone else, and if it was discovered thatl had disobeyed those orders I should lose my place the next day as sure as eggs is eggs. But I cannot see a young lady like you without a roof over her head when there's that room goi^g begging, so to speak. Therefore, miss, if strain a point and risk my situation to oblige you, all I ask in return is, can you hold your tongue?"

Needless to say that, overjoyed at the prospect of getting such comfortable quarters, I very speedily gave the required promise to be forever silent, if neoeeaary, as to where I had passed the night. "That's enough then, miss, £II take your word. Now the simplest plan will be for you to tell these people that have offered yon a bed in my house they don't know but what I have a spare room, and you oan pass a* my guest, if you do not mind."

My simple arrangements were soon completed, and I set out with my guide into tbe semi-darkness of the summer night. We crossed the Market Square' and went past the church into the street wherein stood the halls of justice but instead of turninug In at the imposing main entrance, or way led us down a side passage to the door of the oaretaker's modest residence at the back of the Courts. With the aid of a latch-key an entrance was quickly efleeted, and then my guide, throwing open thejdoor of a small sitting-room, requested me to wait for a few moments while he went to inform his wife of the advent of the unexpected guest. Presently he returned, rubbing his hands with satisfaction, and aooompanied by a tall, bony woman,

seemingly of Scotch extraction, to judge by her accent. ••The very thing," began the little man, exoltedly. "My wi'e here has just reminded me of a small bedroom in tbe roof of the Assize Court, which we have full possession to use, but which I had oompletely forgotten. Now, if you are the sensible young lady I take you to be, you won't rnlndsleeplngalone over there —it is only just across the yard, after all, and it would be a great relief to my mind I was willing to run tbe risk if there was no other course open, but I must say I would rather not break tbe rules."

Well, what could I do but aoqulesoe? I will confess that tbe idea of sleeping up there so far away from everybody did not particularly commend itself to me, but beggars must not be choosers, so I put a brave face on it, and expressed my willingness to acoompany my hostess to the room in question, at the same time thanking them both oordially for proving such friends in need.

I was conducted across tbe yard, along two or three corridors, and then into the Crown Court, at the further side of whioh was a door almost hidden in the wall. This being unlocked revealed a small flight of stairs, and at the top of these was the room where I was to pass tbe night. I laughingly told Mrs. Beele that she would have to come and fetch me in the morning, or I should get lost In that maze of windings and have to be sought for in the prisoners' cells, so she promised to send or cotoe herself when breakfast was ready.

The room was airy, that was one oomfort, and was lighted by a fair-sized window looking out on ty tbe street. "It's a queer place," I remarked to my hostess. "I wonder what made them build a room up here."

4-I

fancy it must have been originally, made for tbe purpose of spying,"she replied. "Look here, mips."

And going over to tbe inner side of tbe room, she knelt down, and turning up a strip of thecarpet, which lay looseaoross tbe floor, she disclosed a row of tiny trap doors, one of which she managed, with some little trouble, to pull open.

Now look dowfi there*" she said, drawing back. I obeyed, and saw by the help of the bright moon light streaming through tbe unshuttered windows that I was gazing straight down into tbe Assize Court, just over the prisoners' dock. The whole place could be seen as easily as though one were down in the court itself. "And every word that' Is spoken "can be heard," added my companion. "There's another way up here, outside the eourt,—only Beele's mislaid tbe key just now,—but many'a the time I've gone up tbat way when there's been some exciting case on, and heard and seen everything without a soul down there being a whit the wiser. But I shouldn't dare to bring anyone else up, for fear of their making a noise."

I suppose you and your husband have been here a great, many,y^ara.as,carea

Not more than two or three Beele's predecessor, quite a yonng man he was, a» I understand, he wasn't here very long, either He got f-lck of tbe work, and threw it up suddenly, on account of ill health, folks said, and his wife, of course, she went with him. They were above their business, I always tell Beele, but anyway we got their pi ce, so mustn't talk against them. Well, good night, mhs» I'm sure I hope you'll sleep well. You've no cause to be afraid of anything, but I'll leave the door unlocked, so that you can get to us If you wish."

As soon as the good woman was gone undressed qulokly, and, putting out i.be light, walked to the window and drew up tbe blind, thinking I would let In tbe moonlight foir -company. For some time I stood at the open oasement, ray dark dressing-gown wrapped round me, gazing out into tbe beauty of the summer nlgbt. No sound was audible save the fa.nt buzz now and again of the cockchafers as they oame whirring past tbe window. Facing me stood the fine old church tower in all its quiet grandure, clearly outlined against tbe sky by the fHondly moonlight, whioh- peeped inquisitively ip and out of its numerous loopholes and narrow windows. Tbe bats were holding high revel round the tower pinnacles, and I amused myself for some tline with idly watching their antlos Then gradually a meditative mood stole over me, and I began to con iure up visions of the future, and of wnat I meant to do for the dear ones at home when my "ship came home." I lost oount of time while I stood musing there, building castles in the air, and was brought to a sudden sense of my surroundings and of where I was, by the striking of the ohuroh dock.

Midnight! "This will never do," I thought, but still I lingered on, as, the striking done, tbe chimes began to send their sweet sounds forth into the night. "Life let us cherish," they played. What an inspiring tune It is! life let ua cheriah,

Live while it ret is Ma$ Ne'er yield to sorrow, gg%§ Put oare away." I jumped Into bed when the chimes had done In a most amiable frame of mind, and with the last bars of the melody still lingering In my ears. To bed, but not yet to sleep. My last act, ere lying down, had been to oast an almost unconscious glanoe towards that row of little trap doors In the floor, from which the carpet still lay turned back* Suppose ahead should suddenly pop up through one of theznl Try as I would, and scold myself as I might for my silliness, I could not shake that Idea out of my head, nor had the courage to get up and put back the strip of carpet. Bothy and bye there came over me a curious feeling. I thought that I got up and stood by one of those trap door*, looking over the shoulder of a golden-haired

mmmmmmmmm'

girl, who seemed totally unconscious of my presence. I felt not the slightest fright or even surprise at finding her there in my room, but only curiosity to know what she could be gasing at so Intently. I looked down Into the court below, but could see nothing, only tbe moonlight streaming through the window behind tbe judge's throne. Very soon, however, we heard a slight sound, as if of stealthy footsteps. I say •we,' for tbe girl appeared also to hear tfoe sounds, and to bend closer over the opening. The door of the court swung slowly back on Its hinges, and siletitly and most oautiously four closely masked men crept in one after the other, and took their seats round the lawyers' table. All carried pistols, with tbe exception of one man, who had instead a formidable looking bludgeon, whioh be laid on the table In front of him, as did the others their weapons. They then removed their masks, again with the exception of the man with the bludgon, who retained his, but took off his coat, as though oppressed by the beat. As he did this, the button of his shirt cuff came undone, and tbe sleeve fell baok, disclosing distinctly on his arm three or four inohes above tbe wrist, and seemingly branded deeply into the flesh, a large star about tbe size of a crown piece, and with six points instead of tbe usual five. At the lower end of the star was a black mark, whioh slightly obscured one of the points, but whether it was a mole or only a spot of ink or dirt I could not determine. But tbe star I saw as distinctly as though it were close under my eyes, although I conceived tbe impression that neither the girl nor the otber men perceived it its owner pulled his sleeve down again almost immediately, with a hasty, furtive movement, as though he did not wish the mark to be seen. "Why don't you take off your mask,: man?'%aid one but the otber shook his bead impatiently, without speaking. "Is he afraid of"—I could not catch the name—'"surprising him?" said another, with a hoarse though subdued laugh. "By it will be the worse for whoever shoves a nose in here just now they won't live to tell tales." And he fingered his pistol meaningly. "Well, to business," broke in the third man, imperiously—be seemed to be the leader. "We don't want to stop in this hole all night. What has to be done must be done quickly the assizes are fixed for next week. You have the key of the Btone passage?'!g this to the man with the mask. "Y^s, and of tbe secret dungeon also," answered tbe.one addressed, in a low voice. "I discovered tbe dungeon quite accidentally at last." "Ab, I always knew it must exist I've beard my old grandad talk of it times enough. Well, tbat will simplify matters a lot. We had better get tbe stuff in there on Sunday when the place is quiet. Then you,"and be leant toward tbe masked man, and whispered something I could not catch, to whioh the otber appeared to object then the others joined in, and all seemed to be urging something with low and angry gestures.

I bad leisure now to observe the appearance of the three men, and their features seemed to stamp themselves on my memory without my being exactly conscious of it myself. They had not the sinister looks commonly attributed to tbe ty pioal villain of melodrama—far from it—one of the three, indeed, bad a distinctly handsome face, and none were downright repulsive. But handsome or plain, all three had one thing in common, and that was dogged determination in their countenances. One of the three— he who seemed to be the leader, and whom tbe others called Mike—had a large scar on one cheek, extending right across the nose, as though from a sword cur,. Another was short and inclined to stoutness, with a long sweeping beard, and the third was tall, with aqu|llne nose, 'close-cropped hair, and tehort beard. This last man^ wor^ large dark blue spectacles. -fS

I have said tbat the features of the three men seemed to stamp themselves Involuntarily on my memory, and the reason was, I think, that all my oonscious attention was fixed on the masked man, In my desire to oatcb sight of his face. And my fair-haired companion seemed to share my curiosity with regard to tbe latter, for at the first low sound of bis voice she started, and kept muttering restlessly to hersetf. All at once she appeared to come to a sudden resolution, for murmuring half aloud, "I must make sure," she got up from her kneeling position in front of me, and seemed to vanish through the closed door of the room. While I was wonder ing in a hazy kind of way, yet without any especial surprise, how she had managed to get out, I saw her head peer cautiously round the opening In the prisoners' dock, which was just behind the masked man's seat. For a time she stood thus, unobserved, silently regarding the soene. Then a wail of mingled horror and astonishment rang through the court: "Bdmondl"

With one wild bound the men were on their feet, the trembling gtrl seized with ruthless hands and dragged forward. As for the masked man, he seemed paralysed with fear, for uttering an Involuntary ory of despair, be stood still, gasing helplessly, stupidly, the hand holding the hastily snatched up bludgeon hanging limply )»y his side. Short shrift was givec the unhappy girl the three others crowded round, and each pistol was pointed with unerring aim at her forehead. She made no movement of fear, only stared with agonized, wide open eyes at tbe masked man, her hands held out to him Imploringly. Be roused himself then, and raised tbe bludgeon, making as though he woutd throw himself on her captors. With a brutal oath and laugh the handsome

man with the soar—the one called Mike —dropped his pistol, seised the masked man's uplifted arm unexpectedly from behind, and—oh, horror of horrors! with all bis force caused bim to dash the loaded bludgeon against the unhappy girl's forehead. With a slokenlng thud -the blow fell, and murderer and victim rolled together in one confused heap on to the stone foor. And then—with a long, long shriek of agony—I awoke. [TO BB CONTINUED.]

Women and Coeducation.

France Is interested in the question at ooeducation, and a college professor from that country is looking into the matter over here for the benefit of his nation. His researches have developed, according to his statistics, the interesting statement that wherever coeducation has been introduced the standard of the institution has fallen. It is not the women students personally who accomplish this result. They are excellent workers, stand high and take the lion's share of the honors, but indireotly their presence seems to have a deteriorating effect. The men relax, and this visiting observer finds that no oollege where women are admitted stands as high as one attended only by men. Whioh is one more obstacle that must be met by the ambitions woman. She will hardly be daunted by it, for if there is one thing the woman of today has become accustomed to—this, too, whether she be new, advanced, old fashioned or just plain "woman," with no adjective or oapitals—it is criticism.

Sand aa a Filter.

It is well known that the thiokness of the layer of fine sand in filtering beds oannot be reduced beyond a certain point without endangering the quality of the water that filters through. Dr. Kurth of Bremen has found in examining water filtered through a layer not sufficiently thick that tbe number of baoteria was greatly increased, owing to the presence of a speoial microbe that could not be found in the water before it entered the filter. These microbes must therefore have existed in the filtering material {and have been developed by the passage of water through it.—Exchange.

THE riUSCULAR SYSTEM of every weary, thin or thin blooded person does its work with constant difficultyand fatigue. They feel "worn," or tired out, "run-down" or nervous.

Feeble people who are dyspep tic, find that exercise after a meal is sure to cause lessened power to digest food—because there is so little blood, and what there is, is carried off from the gastric organs to the muscles.

What is needed is plenty of blood, and that of the

right kind. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery makes pure, rich blood, and to gain in blood is nearly always to gain in wholesome flesh up to the healthy standard.

Every one should have a certain surplus of flesh to meet the emergencies of sickness to resist the attack of consumption, grip, malaria and fevers. Thin blooded people are always getting sick, and none of the organs of the body can get along without the food they require for work, which is, pure blood. To gain and to keep strength and flesh is the secret of health, usefulness and happiness. With new blood and refreshed nerves a confident feeling of returning health comes also.

Nervous manifestations, such as sleeplessness nervous debility and nervous prostration are in nine cases out of ten "the cry of the starved nerves for food." If you feed the nerves on pure rich blood the nervous symptoms will cease. It is bad practice to put the nerves to sleep with socalled celery mixtures, coca compounds or malt extracts: what is needed is a blood maker. The Discovery is composed of vegetable ingredients which have an es-

§lood

ecial effect upon the stomach, liver, and making glands. For the cure of —epsia, indigestion, liver complaint, weakened vitality, and for puny, pale people, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cannot be equaled. Thousands have testified to its merits.
