- Then followed that exquisite bit of r!

try as she totters toward her bed. the
heroic effort to keep up; the creeping,
nrful fear of death; the shuddering
glance at the door, as If she saw his

going to actually kill herself. Tou know
the play; go on, you, as Armand; seize

fkirce, actually placed his hands on Bur
nett's shoulders and 'pushed him toward
thelstage.

as Armand?'
"Do you wl3h to see her die? I tell
it's what she . will do. She will
e a dramatic end; It's my theory
the case," cried Davids, excitedly.
Burnett looked at him aghast. But
ere was no time to question or argue.
Ith his head In a whirl of confusion
and excttement, partly caused by the
blow he received In falling from the cab
on Broadway, partly by the earnest and
baleful words of the detective, Burnett
prang upon the stage, madly shouting:
"Don't die. Marguerite! for my sake,
tor my sake!"
His acting was certainly very realis
tic and vivid. A round of aplause burst
from the gallery. Many in the audi
ence believed it was the true Armand
(Mr. Wlckersbam) "returned from his
ong' Journey," and having the traces
of his duel wfth M. de Varville on his
pale face, the ordeal tie had undergone

Mr. Wfckersham. His fervency in
throwing himself upon his knees behind
Marguerite's bed stirred the gallery
gods profoundly.
As for poor Marguerite, she was clev
er enough to keep her wits about her.
0he believed that Burnett had sudden
ly gone crazy, but her quick actress'

Armand (solemnly) "Oh, I will fol

(Great applause.)
(Quick curtain.) . t
THE FINALE.
As the curtain descended, Sarah, her
maid, threw the long, nunlike cloak
about Marguerite's pretty figure, and
the latter rose from her couch and stood
her full height. She was a sudden and
miraculous transformation from a
corps' to a beautiful and angry woman.
"What did you mean by this tomfool
ery?" she asked of Hurnett, her eyes
flashing w!Mi wrath. .
"I I ws half crazed," he muttered,
his eyes lowered. "Forgive me; I hardly
knffw what I did. I feared for your life."
"Tou have made me a laughing stock
before the public:"
"Burnett how the devil what do you
mean?" asked Wlckersham, coming for
ward, Indignantly. "I've asked the
manager to explain that I was suddenly
taken 111. What In h hades? Are you
crazy, or what?"
They could hear the manager explain
ing before the curtain.
Burnett said stiffly: "Later on I will
explain fully."
"I must say you did it well great
emprersement very sincere!" added
Wlckersham, disposed on the whole to
take It as a Joke. "I didn't know you
could act as well; you shall be my
understudy In future, ha! ha!"
"And I shall haver forgive you as long
as I live, Mr. Burnett," exclaimed Elea
nor, trying to keep her Indignation at
white heat. "The Idea of your daring
to do such a thing, to risk breaking up
the entire climax of the play! Oh, It
was wicked! But I really believe you
are not yourself; you look 111; are you
III?" (anxiously.) ,
Burnett did not reply. Her indigna
tion seemed to soften as she gazed at
him. ' .-
Just then the call boy handed her a
note. She opened It hastily, and read
aloud in her agitation:
"Dear Eleanor I have been taken
with another of my apoplectic attacks.
but am. better now; and write from my
bed to tell you to come to me at the
Oldorf as soon as you can. I was nearly
two hours utterly unconscious, and sup
posed to be dead. You can see at once

' "Tour loving
. . ; . "FATHER."
"P. B. Come soon, my darling!"
"My father Is 111." she cried. "I must
go to him. Call my carriage at oncel
What a night of hoirible experiences
and sensations! Come, Sarah, hurry.
I will go at once, as I am! My poor,
poor daddy!" ,. , .
, She swept out of the theater with a
glance of; high Indignation and scorn
at poor Kuraettt who, Instead of meek
ly hanging his head in shame, was now
clapping his hands and dancing about
like a veritable madman, as If ''tickled
to death,'!, So,, Lord Holton was not
dead, after, U! a vs ' '
"Crasy as a toon, poor fellow!" re
marked Mr. Wlckersham, as he' lit a
cigar and prepared to take his depsr
ture. ' "And -a very able, capable critic,
too always fair to me. '
The manager, clever fellow, oame
bustling In. having made a capital little
speech and sent the audience away In
good humor.
"Don't say a word, Burnett," he said.
"But It's all right. Her father had a
stroke, that's all; and the detective
mistook the odor of Iodoform which a
guest happened to be using for tooth
ache, for chloroform, and the handker
chief she laid over Lord Hnlton's head
made them supect her. They Jumped
too quick, that's all. Oh, by the way.
where la Mr. Swift? Where Is Mr.
Davids the astute detectives? I can't
seem to find them anywnere! Burnett,
there's a hot bird and a cold bottle
awaiting us over at Del's, at my ex
pense. Tou're my friend! If It hadn't
been for you. Swift would have
stopped the play, by Jove. Oh, these
detectives!"
Burnett grasped his hand and they
both laughed.
And then." said the former, "that
man Davids wrought me up to a pitch
'What Did Yon Mean by This Tonv
Foolery t"
of frenxy by saying she would cer
tainly poison herself (dear. Innocent
girl) In the death scene. And then I
went on to prevent It. I wouldn't let
her touch her medicine."
"Ha, ha! ho, ho! naturally she died.
then," laughed the manager; "but keep
mum. Don't say a word. Tomorrow
see her quietly and explain It all. I'll
see her, too, for you. .Mark my word.
Burnett, he likes you. In the end, she
will appreciate your Interference. As
for you, you never made love better to
a girl tn your life than tonight. All's
well that ends well. I hear that Ed
ward Armltage, whose real name Is
Iloget, has run away to Beantown with
Fanny Hlghklck."
"Hush!" growled Burnett, savagely.
"I-I "
And the manager took his arm and
they walked out together.
Two years later, after Lady Camilla
Elizabeth Holton had obtained a divorce
from her worthless and dissipated hus
band, Henry Koget. there was a quiet
wedding at the quaint little English
church, near Heathdome, Lord Hulton's
seat near Birmingham. The beautiful
Mrs. Harold Burnett, to the regret of
the play-going public, has definitely left
the stage. She spends her time with
the present Lady Holton In nursing her
Invalid father (poor Lord Holton never
quite got over those American oysters
at the Oldorf) and assisting her hus
band In writing his (expected to be
famous) novel, "The False Clue; or, a
Sensation Spoiled."
Many a hearty laugh has the jolly old
lord had over the impetuous Armand
of his handsome son-in-law.
As for Lady Camilla, she Is com
pletely happy, and that Is enough.
There Is nothing more to be said.
'And they had me Camilla dead in
Australia, did they, and rigged up an
illegitimate sister. Oh, these detectives!
But there is one thing, Harold; you
did make love to me In a very capti
vating way on the stage that night li
New Tork, and some day. Just for fun,
we'll play Camille at some provincial
theater for a charity. Will you, Ar
mand, dear?"
"No, don't ask me. What agnnv I
went through that dreadful dramatic
evening I wish to bury forever out of
sight and memory. To think I feared
that you "
The rest of the sentence was
"A kiss, which he had set
Between two charming words."
(The End.)
EFFECT OF SUNDAY CYCLING.
Bleycls Room of the Church to Taks the
Plaoe of tho Wacnn Shed.
From the Chicago Times-Herald.
The fact that the outing spirit Is such
a factor in our rest days that many
clergymen are up tn arms against the
tendency toward open air enjoyment
on Sunday is significant. The alarm felt
by the pulpit over the fascination that
the wheel and the open country have
above the pew and the church service
Is natural, since the prospeot Is that
this year will see a greater use of the
bicycle than ever before among both
sexes and all classes. There was a ttmn
when the Sunday rWer might have lost
caste, but that day Is long gone by,
and whether they forsake the church
or go to church first and take up the
wheel afterward. It Is evident even to
a careless observer that Sunday Is now
a' bicycle day par excellence. It Is so
In Boston, in New Tork, in this city,
the greatest .bicycle town In the coun
try, and Irf - Bf Louis. ' The un
official outings of ' clubs and Indi
viduals In Chicago make a remarkable
showing' on almost any clear Sunday,-
and If a parade should be organ
ized the Chicago turnout would be far
distanced. In numbers and In everything
else. This, utilization of Sunday as
a recreation day for wheelmen will in
crease rather than decrease, and as a
problem for the church to solve It Is no
mean question.
One Boston clergyman has taken the
bull by the horns and proposes an early
morning service which would give those
who love an open air life a chance to
get that meed 'of spiritual reflection
that is neoessa.ry for well rounded ex
Istence, and still would leave the rest of
the day practically open for a trip to
the country or any disposition that
might be made of the day of rest as far
as general recreation goes. Another In
New Tork utilized the evening service
and Invited the wlveelmen, doubtless
feeling that after their day or afternoon
of recreation and animal enjoyment
they would be well disposed to the
truth of religion, and also' hoping
doubtless-that such practical applica
tion of spiritual truths could be tnado
as to act as a means of grace. But to
many of the Tigid disciplinarians such
efforts savor toojnuch of a compromise
with the world, and flesh and the devil,
and so K is not at all surprising to note
that other ministers have denounced
Sunday outings, and particularly the
uvvoiivn iu ina wn, ana no imivvt-
taln tones.. They doubtless feel that
the sanctity of the Sabbath Is some
thing that cannot be trifled with and
that It .cannot , be broken Into, even
under the guise f healthful and In
nocent amusement, , ';',;
It has been, suggested that the
churches, will have to make some ar
rangement whereby the bicycle' riders
can attend svrvice, arriving and de
parting on the wheel. If this Is done
the bicycle room In the church of the
future will take the plaoe of the wagon
shed now a famlHar fixture of all our
country churches of today. The sex
ton will have something else to do be
side unlocking the doors of the church
and seeing that the ventilation, la as it
should be. The latter duty, however.
Is one that must be remembered among
the average sexton's sina of omission.

GREAT ENGINEERING.
Aa Example of the Ccsseless ladaatry of
the Coral PoUp.
From London Public Opinion.
One of the marine wonders of the
world is the great Barrier Reef of
Australia. This stupendous rampart of
coral, stretching in an almost unbroken
line for 1,250 miles along the north
eastern coast of Australia, presents
features of interest which are not to
be equaled In any other quarter of the
glnie. Nowhere is the action of the
little marine Insect, which 'builds up
with untiring Industry those mighty
mountains with which the tropical seas
are studded, more apparent.
By a slmplo process of secretion there
has been renred in the course of count
less centuries an adamantine wall
against which the billows of the Pacific
sweeping along in an uninterrupted
course of several thousand miles, dash
themselves In Ineffectual fury. In
closed within the range of its projecting
arms is a calm inland sea, dotted with
a multitude of coral Inlets, and present
ing at every turn objects of Interest
alike to the unlearned traveler and the
man of science.
Here may be witnessed tho process
by which the wavy gelatinous mass
hardens Into stone, then serves ns a col
lecting ground fur the flotsam ind jet
sam of the ocean, and ulimateiy dev
elops Into nn Island covered with a lux
uriant mass of tropical growth. Here
rtgalri may be seen In the serene depths
of placid pool extraordinary forms of
marine life, aglow with the most bril
liant colors, ami producing In their In
finite variety a bewildering sense of the
vastness of the life of the ocean.

Sullen and cold the sea.
Here's brighter fate."
When swallows northward flew,
Hack to his home did fare
Guy, Lord of LanturlaJre
And Lanturiu.
Led he his charger gray.
Hearing a shepherdess
Beaming with loveliness,
Sweet as young day.
While lambs, borlbboned blue, .
Herded with anxious care
Guy, Lord of Lanturlaire
And Lunturlu.
Fine sport of him they made.
Knights t.imous, old and lone,
Strength, hope nnd youth all gone
In the Crusade.
But In their hearts they knew,
"He hath the better fure
Guy, Lord of Iinturlalre
And Lanturiu."
From the July Philistine.
Cholera
Infantum
This dreadful disease cannot
fasten upon childhood when the
system is fortified with that great
raw food extract known as
Bovinine
The medical profession in gen
eral have depended upon it for
years. Bovinine is a food, not a
medicine. Add a few drops to
baby's milk. Nothing will build
up health and strength so quickly.

TO OUR PATRONS :
Wushbttrn-Croshy Co. wish to assure their many pat
rons thtit they will this year hold to their usual custom
of million STRICTLY OLD WHEAT until the new crop
is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, ana
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers are
of the opinion thttt It tt already cured, aiid in prope
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will tak
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully thre
months to mature before grinding. '
This careful attention to every detail of milling has
E laced WtuhburnsCroBby Co.'s flour far above other
