HI3 WENT on to say that It was self
evident that the letter characters '"Q"
and "U" were really letters that liml
fixed habits for reappearing, tto ex-
f)lalned fut the discovery of the rlpht
ottora would shatter tho cryptic cross, and
Bald that for the benefit of the company
ho wan working the problem over orally.
'Tell me, what sort of letters are used
most frequently in French, HnRllsh and
German?" he asked.
"Vowels beyond all question," replied
Andrews.
"You are rlfrht," said Tllnns, "we who
study the peculiarities of letters In words
find that In one language 'A' is the most
recurrent, In another It Is 'E' and again
It may, bo !. Therefore, the symbol let
ter 'Q.' having the Rrcatest frequency,
must really be one of these throe vowels."
Whereupon he set down the letters of
the alphabet thus:
ABODEFOHIJKLM
NOPQRSTUVWXYZ
"We will assume as a starter that 'Q.'
tho most .repeated symbol In the cross is
really 'A,' " he said.
Ho had written under the real "A" the
symbol "Q"' and followed it with corre
sponding? characters through the entire
alphabet. Ills speculation looked thus:
ABODEFOHIJKLM
KLMNOPQR,S TU VW
NOPQRSTUVWXYZ
XYZABODEFGHIJ
"Now," he shrilled, with a twinkle In his
bulging eyes, "we must nssuino that the
probable start of n word was Immediately
after any of the three perpendicular rows
of figures Anyhow. It is the best place to
enter the cross for experiment. I shall
select 12 letter characters starting with
F' at tho point whero tho Stli longitudinal
lino of characters crosses tho nth latitud
inal lino. On tho basis that 'Q' Is 'A' for
the symbols we may write n guess as to
tho others."
Hlnns exhibited this scrawl:
For F wo have V
For Q wo have A
For .1 wo have V.
For F we have V
For U we have K
For X wo have X
For Q wo have A
For Y wo have O
For U wo have K
For X we have, X
For X wo have N
For K wo liavo V
The supposed words or parts of a word
ran: "VA'VKNAOKNNU."
"Looks like a new llusslan drink."
commented Agent W., dryly. "Nothing
American about that word."
"Xor is it Fronch," said Androws,
"I answer that It Is not German."
crackled tho decoder. "Oh! I am neutral,
but 1 cannot forget n good German mother
who gave mo tho plodding, analytical
brains with which I dig out these pu.zles."
"Slight bo Czech or Bulgarian!" ven
tured Monte.
"Xo, gentlemen, we have drawn a
blank," replied Blnns, "for 'Q' Is not tho
vowel 'A.' Lot us go back and start again.
Tho next vowel Is 'C Wo will now say
that It represents 'Q '" -

A GOOD-NIGHT TALK ABOUT LOVE
Dear Children One of our members has written in asking mc to Rive
you a talk about love.
There are many kinds of love, just as there are many kinds of electricity,
nnd as vc do not know exactly what electricity is, so we ennnot say just
what love is. But we do know that, like electricity, it is a powerful force.
It goes throuc;h everything plows through fire, climbs the highest moun
tains, goes under and over tho ocean and changes the map of the world.
Mothers have fought the flames to rescue their children. Men have
climbed tho highest mountains and fought bloody battles for love of country.
Messages of love fly by wireless and cable and the love of Napoleon's men for
him changed tho map of the world.
A dog loves his master, n cat loves the one who feeds it and a mother bird
loves her babies well enough to push them out of tho nest and let them (y
alone. This last proves that there is wisdom in love, the wisdom of knowing
and doing what is best for the objects of our love.
Love is the biggest and most wonderful thing in the world! As some
one has said, "Love is the one bright ray on life's dark cloud the morning
and the evening star." FARMER SMITH,
Children's Editor, Evening Ledger.
Wanita and Kawasha
CHAPTER XV.
Vou remember that tho white man and
Wanlta and Kawneha wcro skimming
ocr tho water in tho canoe, with Chief
Red Feather and his braves howling
treacherously after them. This embarking
in tho canoo was not a rash, Impulsive
act on the part of John Marshall. In
his flight through tho trees ho had spied
on the river tho lights of a sailing vessel.
Yes, there ahead, they shone now as the
boat plowed majchtleally down the river.
To get to them was their only hope!
In the water splashed Bed Chief nnd
hlB followers. Bows were raised to their
shoulders and lightning-pointed arrowB
shot through the air. Again the children
crouched In tho bottom of the canoe,
when, snap, an arrow pierced tho birch
bark surface!
In rushed tho water "Swim, children,
Bwlm for the lights J" cried the white man.
But. alas, tho white man had made a
mistake. Unlike most Indian children,
Wanlta and Kawasha could not swim.
Ovei1 went the canoo and, struggling
frantically, the two little ones sank under
the water.
"Save us 1" cried the white man, trying
to attract the attention of the people on
board the boat. The moon was bright,
and although the hour was late many
still lingered on deck enjoying the beauty
of the night. The call sounded loud and
clear and there was an Immediate rush to
the deck rail.
"Some one is drowning!" was the gen
eral cry j and In a very few seconds two
brave men had dived overboard and were
ewlmralng to the rebcue.
By this time the white man had reached
the two children and was trying desperate
ly to keep their heads above tho water.
He had almost Elven, up hope when strong
arms reached out and lifted his little
chargesjnta their tale harbor.
Awcfctvlcken, Great Chief Ited Feather
and his band splashed some small dis
tance, away, grumbling and threatening,
but Q0t daring to approach, the ship.
Within a few minutes the rescued and
the rescuers were safely landed on board
the vessel- Out on deck on a pile of soft
Yilaniets they laid the two cjj".dren. Ka

only a Jew streaks of ugly brown stain

Bewildered, John Marshall turned to look
at Knwabha. His face was a queer com
bination of brown paint and white skin.
"It Is true," he said wonderlngly, "but
wh' "
A chorus of mystified exclamations
arose from the passengers then up spoke
the captain, a worthy seaman, who had
been, guiding his ship up and down the
river' for many years.
"These children have evidently been
stolen." he said, "and their skin washed
each day In native brown dye. The sud
den plunge In tho water washed a good
bit of the dye off."
"Oh," exclaimed John Marshall, "that
Is why they weren't able to Mvim. No
doubt the Indians feared to let them near
the water lest the dye wear off and they
be discovered."
Then he questioned Kawasha, but the
boy could tell nothing of any life save his
present one.
Just then Wanlta opened her eyes
"White man," she crjed, "tho treasure!"
And then, remembering, she reached quick
ly for the little bag that hung at her side,
she pulled forth the diamonds, safo and
sound.
Soon she was telling her story of the
night's events. All the while the whlto
man listened with tears very near his
eyes. It was very wonderful, thl3 btorj
of two little ones risking their lives for
his.
Then it was Wanlta's turn to listen,
and the story that she heard was a very
beautiful one. The white man was going
to adopt Kawasha and herself as his very,
very own and ho was going to be their
really truly father In a land whero thore
was no brown paint and no Chief Ilcd
Feather!

CHAPTHU XVII
An Uiistmpprtcit Partnership
AXY West Philadelphia dwelling house,
. Is a complete chapter 'n Itself, True,
as fnt as enterprising owners can
wheedle loam from conservative bankers,
standardized apartment buildings nro In
vading this picturesque district. Yet up
shady, quiet streets there remain long
leaches of the old Individualism: line,
palatial residences still comparatively new
with largo gniM plots In front, and smalt
gardens lu the rear luxuries of living
still n common to Philadelphia as clean
laundry and fresh air.
The detached houses nro much too
respectable In appearance for a suspicion
thnt they might hnrbor disreputable char
acters. Those occupants we know nro
niwnys nlre, normal, average people who
feel- no pang of jealousy when an occa
sional neighbor puts nut a "For Bent"
sign, loads household effects upon motor
trucks, and rolls ofT to Ovet brook, Mellon,
Kenwood. Bala or one of the many beau
tiful suburban residence towns of the city.
Xew people who never becoino neighbors
move Into tlio vacant houses, nnd they
may go and come without exciting mnro
than passing eurlolty from tho worthy
established fninllies surrounding thorn.
Strango dramas nro not Infrequently
enacted In theso repainted nnd newly
tenanted houses of yesterday weird hap
penings which never get Into the news
papers. Behind their vine-clad, deep-sot
exteriors wo may llnd bote n man and
woman trying to blot out unpleasant
memories of another city, there n drab
soul rcllectlng nlono upon squandered
years and fortune gone forever. A now
tenant In nn old house offers a wldo rango
of speculation. Romance! Soirow! Mys
tery! Who knows?
Xo, 31 Blank street was an empty land
mark or West Philadelphia; a mellow,
gabled structure of Colonial lines, half
concealed by thick slnubbery, and sltu
ntcd nt the hack end of a coiner lot. It
had stood vncnnt for a ynar. Being with
out that greatest of modern Improve
ments, n gnrage. It had been spurned by
hoides of lunise-bunters. although only
threo blocks from tho Pennsy railroad sta
tion, and one block irom trolley line.
Through the long summer feathered song
sters levelled In an undisturbed orgy
among the branches of the four oak tiees
rooted In the spacious front yard.
At last In tho enrly fall . tho realty
agent found a ten.int for the premises,
mid ho wroto the owner, nn estimable
widow living In far-off Pasadena, Cal., of
his success:
Very desirable people, rich Latin
Americans, Scnor Enrique Velasquez,
n banker, his niece and his nephew,
nil of Brazil; In America for an In
definite stay. Indeed they have paid
six months' rent lu advance upon a
three-year lease, will make their own
repairs, and I herewith enclose my
check for tho balance on hand, after
deductions for taxes, water and In
surance nnd agent's commission.
It took a week far the ngont's glad
tidings to got to California nnd a fort
night for the good lady to write back to
her home fi lends of her luck. Meanwhile,
after a brief period of hammering nnd
other noises initial to new tenants, two
huge mud-splattered vans from Now York
delivered at No. 31 n quantity of burlap
wound furnltuie, and tho Velasquez
family wero Installed. They were set
down as Spaniards; foreigners with their
own social ties, nnd no ono called upon
them.
And as the newcomers kept entirely to
themselves, In fact well out of sight, tho
neighborhood. Including tho cop on tho
beat, switched prying eyes In other direc
tions, and ovents Jogged on as usual In
tho cnlm little street.
Two men turned the corner of Blank
street early one November evening. They
wcro tnlklng earnestly as they walked
rapidly toward the stono steps nnd wnlk
leading to tho front cntranco of No. 33.
Their faces wcro distinct under the urc

SOUL PORTRAIT THE MATCHLESS
GEM OF REMARKABLE EXHIBITION
I m8& I
It Reflects the Artist's Temperament and Is Only One
Example of Unique and Startling
Group of Pictures
Have you ever seen the portrait of a
soul? And, moreover, tho soul of nn
mtlst with her vriRiio nrtlstlc temperament
thnt ru bailies mid onniKes the laymen?
Thlidly, have you oer seen tho portrait
of a. soul of an artist portrayed by the
artist heifiolf?
The self-portrait of her soul Ifl the
momentous contribution of Miss Sallle M.
Hays to the most Interesting Innovation
In nrt exhibits held In Philadelphia.
Send self-portrait of yourself, by your
self, nurrcd. scilolis or profane, was the
Invitation sent out liv the Jur Tho
responses nro miracles of Individuality,
from the man who felt thnt only three
portraits would suirice tu Rive his person
nllty, the post-lmire9slonlstlc portrait of
an Impression of it wet foot, a pintail
and nn eye. the man who saw himself In
a sha-Unp mirror up to the miraculous
soul portrait, all arc eldences that art nnd
humor yea, self ridicule are bosom
friends.
An unassuming white placard glued to
the red brick wnll of lS.lu Locust street
announces that within Is n most startling
collection of self-portraits, t'p eight steps,
a turn to the left, another tut it to tho
left nnd down the long corridor tends to
thu small gallery In which the exhibit Is
held. A ncer-locked door opens oppo
site tho shrine of the most sacred portrait
of nil.
The most lttlng place for a sacred por
trait Is tho fireplace, decided tho Jury,
so lu the deep hollow of the open fire
place Is "hung" the sacred portrait of Miss
Christlno Chambers, ono of the sponsors
of the exhibit, rnllghted sacndlcs are
placed beforo It: Its title, painted on Its
frame, reads: "Itellectlng In tho Wllder
ners." The first prize Is awarded to .mmes
Gamble for reasons that hitherto were
never considered In previous academic ex
hibitions. First, his contribution to tho
exhibition numbered threo almost full
length portraits. Any ono who so well
tilled tho spaco on tho walls deserted to
have thanks paid In Kind. So a guaran
teed beer-tight stein Is attached to ono of
Mr. Gamble's portialts with best wishes
for Its frequent use.
Another point In Mr. Gamble's favor,
Insisted the Jury, was his evident modesty.
Did he not portray himself In tho net of
singing, with mouth extended? Such mod
esty deserves n prize, thought they.
Honorable mentions wcro awarded for
obvious reasons.
Miss Kditli Tenney offered a portrait
of horsclf In her most familiar nttltudc.
Ono lock of her golden hair was stream
ing nnarchlstlcally over her forehead. Tho
Jury In much appreciation of tho truth
nnd In sympathy attached its award to
the canvas a package of yellow bone
hairpins.
Another self-lllumlnatlng masterpiece Is
tho portrait by Orlando Campbell. Mr.
Campbell shows himself at tho most cru
cial moment of the day. Only that much
of himself as he sees In his shaving mir
ror Is shown in a narrow oblong. A green
eye with n red centro Is glaring fixedly
at tho spectator. I'robahly ho had just
finished grazing the under sido of his jaw
near the chin and has laid down the razor
for tho brush and pnletto.
nut the portrait of tho soul, by Miss
Hays. Is tho pleco do resistance. Disdain
ing tho use of ordinary pigment to por
tray the sensibilities of her temperament,
Miss Hays has ovolved a maize of scraps
of darning cotton, each color used a sym
bol of a bit of her soul.
Attached to the soul portrait is a white
pasteboard chart. Kveu artists' souls
must have charts, it seemB. White stands
for truth, says tho chart; light blue for
sentiment, gray for bad qualities, red for
energy; pink denotes a love of beauty;
