Mr. Grimm wn still gazing dream ily out of tbe window. ' "I beg pardon," Insisted tbe new comer pleasantly. He folded tbe pa per once and replaced It on the table. One band lingered for Just tbe frac tion of a moment aboTe Mr. Grimm's coffee-cup. Aroused by tbe remark, Mr. Grimm glanced around. "Ob, thank you," be apologized hastily. "I didn't bear you at llrst Thank you." Tbe new-comer nodded, smiled and passed on, taking a seat two or three tables down. Apparently this trifling courtesy bad broken tbe spell of reverie, for Mr. Grimm squared around to the table again, drew bis coffee-cup toward blm, and dropped In tbe single lump of sugar. He Idly stirred It for a mo ment, as bis eyes turned again toward the open window, then be lifted tbe tiny cup and emptied It. Again he sat motionless for a long time, and thrice tbe new-comer, only a few feet away, glanced at blm nar rowly. And now. It seemed, a pe culiar drowsiness was overtaking Mr. Grimm. Once be caught himself nod ding and rained bis bead with a Jerk. Then he noticed that tbe arc lights in the street were wobbling curiously, and be fell to wondering why that sin gle flume sparkled at tbe apex of the capitol dome. Things around blm grew hazy, vague, unreal, and then, as If realizing that something was tho mutter .with him, he came to his feet. He took one step forward Into the space between the tables, reeled, at tempted to Bteady himself by holding on to a chair, then everything grew black about him, and he pitched for ward on the floor. His face was dead hito; his fingers moved a little, nerv ouHly, weakly, then they were still. Several people rose at the sound of the fulling body, and the new-comer hurried forward. Ills coat sleeve caught tbe empty demi-tasse, as he stooped, and Bwept It to the floor, where It was shattered. The head waiter and another came, pell-mell, nd those diners who had risen came more slowly. "What's the matter?" asked the head waiter anxiously. Already the new comer was support big Mr. Grimm on his knee, and flick tig wuter In his face. "Nothing serious, I rancy," he an swered shortly. "He's subject to these little attacks." "What are they? Who is he?" The stranger tore at Mr. Orlmm's collar until it came loose, then be fell to chafing the still bands. "He is a Mr. Grimm, a government employee I know him," he anawered galn. "I .nmglne it's nothing more serious than Indigestion." A little kuot had gathered about them, with offers of assistance. . "Walter, hadn't you better send for Physician?" some one suggested.

All the rent was blunk. With eyes still closed, and nerve less hands Inert at his sides he listen ed, the while he turned the situation over In speculative mood. Tbe waiter had administered the drug, of course, unless unless It had been the courte ous stranger who bad reuluced the newspaper on the table! That thought opened new fields of conjecture. Mr. Grimm hud no recollection of ever having seen him before; and be had paid only the enforced attention of politeness to him. And why had the drug been administered? Vaguely, Incoherently, Mr. Grimm Imagined that In some way It had to do with tbe great International plot of war In which Miss Thorne was so delicate and vital an Instrument. Where was be? Conjecture stopped there. Evidently he was where the court' oiiH gentleman ln the restaurant wacted him to be. A prisoner? Prob ably. In danger? Long, careful at tention to detail work In tbe Secret Service had convinced Mr. Grimm that he was always In danger. That was one reason and the best why he had lain motionless, without so much as lifting a finger, since that first glimmer of consciousness had en terred his brain. He was probably under scrutiny, even in the darkness, and for the present It was desirable to accommodate any chance watcher by remaining apparently unconscious. And so for a long time he lay, list ening. Was there another person In the room? Mr. Grimm's ears were keenly alive for the Inadvertent shuf fling of a foot; or the sound of breath ing. Nothing. Even the night roar of the city was mlsBlng; the silence was oppressive. At last he opened his "I Imagine It's Nothing More eyes. A pall of gloom encompassed him a pall without one rift of light. His fingers, moving slowly, explored the limits of the couch whereon he lay. Confident, at last, that wherever he was, he was unwatched, Mr. Grimm was on the point of concluding thut further Inaction was useless, when his straining ears caught the faint grating of metal against metal perhaps the Insertion of a key in the lock. His hands grew still; his eyes closed. And aftera moment a door creaked slight ly on Us hinges, and a breath of cool air Informed Mr. Grimm that that open door, wherever It wus, led to the outsldo, and freedom. There was another faint creaking as the door was shut. Mr. Grimm's nerveless hands closed Involuntarily, and his lips were set together tightly. Was It to be a knife thrust in the dark? If not then what? He ex pected the flare of a match; Instead there was a soft Miread, and the rustle of skirts. A woman! Mr. Grimm's caution was all but forgotten In his Burprlse. As the steps drew nearer his clenched Angers loosened; he waited. Two hands stretched forward In the dark, touched him simultaneously one on the face, one on the breast. A singular thrill shot through him,, but there was not the flicker of an eye or the twitching of a finger. The woman It was a woman seemed now to be bending over him, then he heard her drop on her knees beside him, and she pressed an Inquiring ear to bis left side. It was tbe heart test. "Thank God!" she breathed softly. It was only by a masterful effort that Mr. Grimm held himself limp and inert, for a strange fragrance was en veloping him a fragrance he well knew. The bands were fumbling at his breast again, and there was the sharp crackle , of paper. At first be didn't understand, then he knew that the woman had pinned a paper to the lapel of his coat. Finally she straight ened uq, and took two steps away from him, after which came a pause. His keenly attuned ears caught her faint breathing, then the rustle of her skirts as she turned back. She was leaning over him again her lips touched his forehead, barely; ngaln there was a quick rustling of skirts, the door creaked, and silence, deep, oppressive, overwhelming silence. Isabel! Was he dreaml.ig? And then he ceased wondering and fell to remembering her klHS light as air and the softly spoken "Thank God!" She did care, then! She bad under stood, that day! n Tho kins of a woman beloved Is a splendid heart tonic. Mr. Grimm straightened up suddenly on the couch, himself again. He touched the slip of paper which she had pinned to his coat to make sure It -vas not all a dream, after which he reca'led the fact that while be had beard tho door creak before phe went out he had not heard It creak afterward. Therefore, the door was open. She had left It ope!!. Purposely? That was beside the question at the moment. And why how was she In Wash ington? Pondering that 'question, Mr. Grimm's excellent teeth clicked sharp ly together and he rose. He knew the answer. The compact was to be signed the alliance which would ar ray the civilized world In arms. He had fulled to block that, as he thought. If Miss Thorne had returned, then Prince Henedetto d'AbruzzI, who held absolute power to sign the compact for Italy, France and Spain, bad also returned. Stealthily feeling his way as be went, Mr. Grimm moved toward the door leading to freedom, guided by the fresh draft of air. He reached the door it was standing open and a moment later stepped out Into tbe star-lit night. It was open country here, with a thread of white road Just ahead, and farther along a fringe of shrubbery. Mr. Grimm reached the road. Far down It, a pin point In the night, a light flickered through Inter lacing branches. The tall lamp of an automobile, of course! Mr. Grimm left the road and skirt ed a sparse hedge In the direction of the light. After a moment he heard the engine of an automobile, and saw a woman barely discernible stee Into the car. As It started forward he staked everything on one bold move, and won, his reward being a nanow sitting space in tbe rear of the car, hidden from Its occupants by the tonneau. One mile, two miles, three miles they charged through the mil ) Sorloui Than Indigestion," night, tnd still he clung on. At last there came relief. "That's the placo, where the lights are Just ahead." There was no mistaking that voice raised above the clamor of the engine. The car (slackened speed, and Mr. Grimm dropped off and darted behind some convenient bushes. And the first thing he did there was to light a match, and rend what was written on the f'ip of paper pinned to his coat. It was, simply: "My Dear Mr. arlmm: "Ity the time you rend this the com pact will have been signed, and your efforts to prevent It, Rplendld as they were, futile. It Is a tribute to you that It was unanimously agreed that you must be accounted for at the time of the signing, hence the drugging ln tbe restaurant; it was only an act of kindness that I should come here to see that all was well with you, and leave the door open behind me. "Ilelleve me when I say that you are one man in whom I have never been disappointed. Accept this as my farewell, for now I assume again the name and position rightfully mine. And know, too, that I shall always cherish the belief that you will re member me as "Your friend, "ISABEL. THORNE. "P. S. The prince and I left the steamer at Montauk Point, on a tug boat." Mr. Grimm kissed the note twice, then burned It (TO DE CONTINUED.) Our Doctor. "The late Count Tolstoi loathed phy sicians," said, at a dinner ln Washing ton, a Russian diplomat. "You remember how Tolstoi ridiculed physicians In 'War and Pence?' Woll, I heard him ridicule three of them to their faces over a vegetarian dinner at Yasnaya Polyana. " 'Physicians,' ho said, bitterly, look ing up from a plate of lentils, 'may he divided into two classes the radicals, who kill you, and the conservatives, who let you die.'

Alt the Ladles' Aids and Guilds are keen after Ideas to add money to the treasury. I think the scheme outlined a delightful one for this season of the year. It calls for eight trees, which may be dead ones or live ones, as the case may be. Decorate entirely with large potted plants and autumn leaves witb wild grape vine and woodbine If obtainable The crepe papers that come In leaf design will work In beautifully with this decoration and an entire arbor or lattice may be made by cutting out paper leaves and pinning on the trellis. Oleanders and rubber plants help out, too. Tables may be placed In front of the trees, making booths, the top, front and sides being covered wltb cheesecloth on which paper leaves are pasted or pinned. If a grape arbor can be constructed, tea and other beverages or light refreshments may be served from small tables under neath the enclosure thus made. Elec tric lights placed among' the leaves odds to the effect If tbe affair Is held over lXo the evening. At tbe end of the 'arbor, have grape Juice, grape Jelly and ralslnu for sale.

Wagg Can't manage it, ehT NO NUTRITION IN ALCOHOL Problem of Food Value Is Condned Into Nutshell by the Medical Times of New York. The Medical Times of New fork condenses tbe alcohol question Into this nutshell: The problem of the food valuo of al cohol does not seem, after all. to have been finally resolved by Professor At water. A German physiologist of high standing, Professor Kassowlu, has lately published the details of an ex perimental Investigation which has led him to precisely tho opposite con clusion. A certain number of dogs were given definite amounts of food, some with and without alcohol, and required to take a stated amount of exercise each day In a running ma chine. These trials and several oth er of a like nature were repeutedly carried out. and It was found that the recorded results were uniformly' against tbe alcohol-fed dogs, both as to the amount of work accomplished and changes In weight. The author Is of the opinion that no food material can be used in the body without be ing first concerted Into protoplasm. Since alcohol, being a stimulating and poisonous substance, destroys the highly complex and unstable proto plasmic molecule. It cannot at the same time be assimilated by it. con sequently It cannot act as a food and a poison simultaneously. After a com paratively short period, alcohol par. lyzeB the center of Innervation of the muscle and therefore, by diminishing the amount of muscular action, the se cretion of carbonic acid Is lessened. Tbe diminished secretion, consequent ly, moans no saving of the tissues of tbe body, but is a direct result or the poisonous action of alcohol. Kasso win la convinced that under no cir cumstances can alcohol act In a nutri tive manner. Such Is the latest au thoritative pronouncement on this sub ject from the world's scientific cen ter. What do we learn from tbe fants of human experience? Daily observa tion shows that ail men who drink do not become drunkards. Those wbo are thus unfortunate are not so be cause they are weak In will or morals, for men of the highest character have become Inebriates. A man Is drunkard because he has a nervous system that Is peculiarly susceptible to tbe poisonous qualities of alcohol. No young man, when be begins the moderate use of alcoholic beverages, knows whether or not he belongs to the class that can drink without dan ger. He can find this out only by experiment, and after the experiment It Is likely to be too lute to avert the disastrous results, against wblcb strength of character and will Is no safe-guard, any more than it would be against smallpox. Therefore, Btrlci avoidance of alcoholic beverages Is tbe logical conclusion, If the gravest perils are to be avoided. ODD ARRANGEMENT OF ALTAR Staten Island Pastor Creates Sensa tion Among Congregation by Strang Collection in Pulpit. Tbe pastor of a fashionable Staten Islund, N. Y., church recently created something of a sensation. When the congregation arrived there were gen ernl exclamations of shock over the appearance of the pulpit. Instead of floral decorations, there were the fol lowing objects grouped about tbe speaker's stand: A whisky barrel, several cigar and cigarette boxes, a dice box, a small automobilo, some beer bottles, a hnm a pair of shoes, and strewn over this motley collection, some school books, a mission envelope, and a Illble. The pastor said the objects (litis trated his text: "How a Dollar Is Spent In tbe 1'nlted States." In bis ser mon he said: "One-seventeenth of every dollar spent in this country every year goes for drnk, the amount being 11.675.- 000,000; one-eighteenth of every dol lar goes for tobacco, one-seventeenth for boots and shoes, one-fifteenth for meat, one-twenty -fifth for education, and one fiftieth for churches." Advance Step In Germany. German women, headed by Frau Jellink of Heidelberg have secured 130,000 signatures to a irttUon to the Reichstag for the doing away with women waiters In the beer-gardens throughout Germany. The ground of their protest is the "Intolerable deg radation which Btich service brings to women" and the menace to morals and health wblcb are Its Inevitable accompaniment. Most of the Import ant Women's Societies are actively engaged In the promotion of this new reform and many ladles of rank and Influence are taking special Interest In securing favor for the measure In legislative quarters. Its passage will be a decided step In advance for Ger man temperance and the public In terest directed toward the matter may take expression In further reforms. Alcohol an Enemy of Thrift. The Scotch city of Alrdle, formerly famous for its drunkenness, has since 1900 gone through a great transforma tion, chiefly through the activity of the Good Templars. The local lodge numbers 3,300 members (the largest In the world), and Is In close co-opera'.lou with a W. C. T. IT. of 700 members. One-third of the drlnkshops have been closed as a consequence of the special work and Influence of these active temperance forces. The city savings banks for sixty-five years made little progress, but since 1900 the number of depositors hns risen rapidly from 6,769 with about $1,700,000 to 11.263 with nearly Si)00.000 In deposits. Mayor Knox has scored the public house as "the enemy of thrift." Intemperance and Poverty. If we eould sweep Intemporance out of tbe country, there would be hardly poverty enough loft to give honlth ex ercise to tbe charitable Impulses. Phillips Drooks. l WILBUR D.
