J. no release, when again I heard his summons. .He nad risen and was standing beside his desk, and as I turned he held out his hand, Into which I laid mine as he drew me near to him. "Youngster," he said, and the smile which all persons call cold was all of gentleness into my eyes, "these are going to be some hard days for us all these next ten, and if I drive you too hard balk, will you?" "To the death for you I'll go, my Gouverneur Faulkner," I answered him, looking straight Into his tired eyes that were so deep under the black, silver tipped wings of his brows. I did not meant that death I had threatened myself from the mathematics in the paper, but in my heart there was something that roso and answered the sadness in his eyes with again all that savageness of a barbarian. "Then I'll taHe you to the point of demise—almost—if I need you," he answered me, with a laugh that hid a quiver that was like unto a spark shot from the depth of Jiis eyes into the depths of mine. "Go get the pa pers verified and let me know when you have finished." And this time I was in reality dismissed. I went, but in my heart was a strange smolder that the spark had kindled. In the small room that opened eff that of th'e Gouverneur Faulkner, with a door that I knew to lead intoi the room of my uncle, the General Robert, I seated myself at a table by a window which looked down upon the city spread at the foot of the Capitol hill lying shimmering ln*the young spring mists that drifted across its housetops. I laid down the papers, took a pencil from a tray close beside my hand and then faced the most dreadful of any situation that I had ever brought down upon my own head. I also faced at the same time the smiling countenance of my Buzz, who looked into the door from the room of my uncle, the Gen eral Robert, slipped through that door and closed It gently behind him. "Safe on first base! The old boy of the bayonets has been called to the governor, and he'll not be back be fore they both have luncheon sent in to them. I hftve taken his letters, and now I'm off. What did Bill hand you?" "Death and also destruction." I answered in an expletive often used by my father in times of a catastro phe, and with those words I showed to my Buzz the two long papers. "Shoo; that's no big Job! I looked over and verified this one myself yes terday in ten minutes. Hollo; this other one Is in French! Just run It through, and if it is to tally call it, and I'll hold this one. We can do it in fifteen minutes. Go ahead from the top line across." And my Buzz held the paper in his hand as he seated himself in readiness upon the corner of my desk beside me. "Oh, my Buzz, I have such a mor tification that I cannot add one to an other of these long figures! When I place one number to another I must use my fingers, and in this case you see that it is Impossible." Tears I did not allow in my eyes, but they Were In my voice, and I looked into tha eyes of my Buzz with great terror, "What is it that I shall do? I am in disgrace." "You complete edition of a kid, you; don't you know I can do it for you—that is, if you know what all these kilo things stand for In Eng lish? Do you?" As he spoke that kind Ruzs put his hand on my shoul der with a nice rough shake. "I do know from my governess, Madam Fournet, and I will write it all down for you, my Buzz, for whom I feel so much gratitude for help," I answered, with quickrtess. "Stow the gratitude and write "em all out. It will take about an hour, but It Is good to keep calicoes wait ing occasionally," he said, and did thereupon seat himself beside the take and draw to himself the two sheets of paper, while I quickly wrote out the tablo of French weights and measurements translat ed Into English.

All's Well That fS Ends Well i The Story of the Little Si< MOl By Jane Mcl.enn She moved the bed covers cau tiously, and the first move sent a wave of pain over her. After all she was such a very little girl, and pain had been a stranger to her until now. A little whimper, came up to her lips, but she sUfled it and look ed around the room curiously. It was her own room, and yet some how it looked different. Everything was so completely In order." A little table had been moved up to the bed, and on it stood a glass and a medi cine bottle. A pot of mignonette sat on the window sill, and there in the low rocking chair sat mother. Just for the first moment did Katherlne say mother, and then she remembered. It was not mother. Hadn't she vowed never to say that word? This was the strange woman father had brought home, whom Katherlne had resolved not to know. What was she doing sitting In the low rocking chair? What, was she doing in the room? She had never been here when Katherlne was well. Katherlne tried to move again, and this 'time a little moan escaped her. Instantly the figure In the window started up and came over to the bed. "What is It dear? Are you in pain? You must try to lie still If you can." And soft, cool fingers gently strok ed Katherlne's forehead. Gradually Katherlne was beginning to remem ber. She had fallen down had been running away from Janet, who had been chasing her along the upper hall, and she had 'tripped on the rug. i "My back." she said pitifully "lt feels so stiff." The stepmother knelt down by the side of the bed and cuddled one of Katherlne's wasted little hands against her warm throat. "I know, dear you've had a hard time; but you're going to get well. It will take time, that's all. Don't you think you can bear It?" "How long have I been here." Katherlne asked without replying. "Five days." "Wherp'a father?" she queried stiffening suddenly. She realized that she had been talking too freely with this outsider. Once more her resolution swept over her; she de liberately turned her face away. The slender figure beside the bed remained there for a moment, then she sighed gently, but her words came smoothly as before. "I'll get father," she said softly, "You have been too 111 to see anyone dear until to-day. Would you like to see Janet for a few moments?" Katherlne nodded eagerly, and turned her.face toward the front of the room again.

She had tried so hard to win this little daughter, and when the accident occurred, she had been so hopeful that after the child re covered, her bitterness would have left her. Once more she heard her husband's words before she had met the two children of his first wife. Janet will love you the first, but Kat'herine will be hard to win. And she had tried so hard, but had never been able to reach Katherine. Janet tip-toed into the sick room, a look of awe on her face, and behind her came Mr. Rankin. Katherine was very weak, but she held quite a little court about her bedside. It wasn't utitlil two bright fever spots appeared on the child's white cheeks th,t Mrs. Rankin hurried the visitors away, .and her little step daughter something In & glass that tasted very bitter. "Try to sleep dear,"' she said softly and Katherine in spite of herself felt her eyelids dropping and before she knew It, she was fast asleep. When she woke again, it was late afternoon and there was a whispering going on in the room. Just for a moment Katherlne's mind was blank, then suddenly she remembered. As her brain becaime clearer, she heard her mother's voice talking to someone. "I can't make her realize how much I love her," were the words. "She still hates me. Bert, I think we ought to have a nurse, perhaps she hates to see me here." Then came her father's voice pro testing. "You've done so much for her al ready, Kate; why I feel as If I never could have keipt her if it hadn't been for you." Katherine. wide awake now, saw the tears coursing down her fa ther's face, and she wondered strangely. Sooiehow she did not re sent the fact that her new mother's name was the same as her own as she had always done before. She felt Strangely softened, for hadn't her father spoken as If he couldn't have lived at a/11 without his Katherine? Father cared then, he actually cared Just as much as he hftd before the new mother had come. "We could be so happy. Bert," the soft voice went on. "I think I would give almost anything if I could hear her say mother. Just once, If she would believe me when I tell her I love her." Katherine turned uneasily on the pillow, and the voices stopped in stantly. Mrs. Rankin hurried over to the bed. Katherine lay there for a moment tturlying the flAhed face above her. with Its girlish blue eyes, and its haunting smile. No wonder father loved her. even Katherine-her self hadn't found It easy to stay un reconciled. She stretched out a thin little hand tentatively, and as it was suddenly seized and kissed, she said with CTUidish oandor. Im twelve years old, and you're pretty young, you know, but I do love you mother!" And then she nested quite naturally into the ten der arms that somehow did not seem at all too young:, but were warm and cuddly and (fc-lightful. ST. JOHN'S PICXIC SATURDAY Berrysburg, Pa., Aug. 4.

"THEIR MARRIED LIFE" Copyright by International News Service > Copyright, 1916, International News Service Helen flgeted nervously at her desk. She had Just received a letter that did not please her at all. Nothing was In the note that was not perfect ly proper, but it was the conven tionality of it all that made Helen long to do something desperate. There was something in her that is in every woman that, no matter how deeply hidden under the rou tine of ordinary human life, at times makes itself felt. • It might be spoken as a reversion to, the primitive; it is the desire to run away from things: to feel the press of progression and civilization till it almost drives one wild with respon sibilities. This was how Helen felt, and all because of a simple little note that ordinarily would have made her smile. It was from little Mrs. Frisby, the woman with whom Helen had prom ised to be friendly, and It taxed Helen with neglect. Now Helen did not like Mrs. Frisby, and thl prom ise of friendship had been exacted because Helen had felt It Incumbent upon her to make amends for a care less tlitng that she had repeated. Since Mrs. Thurston's malicious re peating of the chance remark Helen had avoided her, but somehow Mrs. Frisby was different. She clung to Helen with such evident liking that Helen hadn't the heart to avoid her and yet there was something about the little woman's manner that made her unpopular. She was too apt to say the wrong thing and then cover it up by some thing so obvious that it was laugh able, The Women thought her ig norant, and in a way she was, s>ut her Mack of tact made this fact ap parent for there were plenty of other women In the club who had had no more advantages than she had. Helen had genuinely tried to be friendly, but at one of the meetings she had overheard Mrs. Davenport remark to another woman that Mrs. Curtis was hurting herself by al lowing that Mrs. Frisby to attach herself tb her. - "Yes" the other woman had re sponded. "It's risky to have any thing to s*y to her these days for fear of getting into a box with that Frisby woman." HE COULD NOT CONTENT HIMSELF Harrisburg Man Just Want ed to Shift About All the Time says Frank Manning, 1118 Herr street, Harrisburg. "Well, I surely had a full book of trouble, I had a nasty catarrhal con dition in my head and throat, when I arose in the morning I coughed 4nd vomited, thus starting the day very badly. "My kidneys gave me a lot of trouble, was feverish and very nerv ous and irritable, could not content myself anywhere, Just wanted to shift about all the time, could not seem to interest myself in anything and felt that I was about to become worthless as far as doing anything was concerned. 'My liver wus all clogged up and this made me have that tired feeling all the time. "A friend advised me to take San pan, and I surely owe him some thing for that advice, for my ail ments are all gone. "That catarrhal condition Im* cleared up, my nerves have settled, am not bothered any more with tha{ feverishnes nor that irritable ■ con dition, and I feel like the flowura that bloom in the spring."

She had wanted to turn around and say, "Why can't we all help her, she tries so hard." , But she didn't the courage and the opportunity had slipped by. Besides she might have incurred open enmity by antagoniz ing 'the women by a direct appeal. The little note was written on vio let paper heavily scented, and the handwriting was vertical like that of a child. • '"You have been out twice when I have called,".it ran, '>and I do think you might come and see me. Mr. Frisby sars that I mustn't bother you, bijt I am lonely. Won't you let me come and take you out to tea sometime soon, or perhaps you and Mr. Curtis would come and have din ner with us." Helen could not help smiling at this. The idea of Warren consent ing to go over there to dinner amused her. He had met Mrs. Fris by just once, and, as he put it, "once was enougji." Certainly War ren was not the one to help her to decide what to do In this case, and Helen felt as if there were nowhere to turn. As she sat wrinkling her brows and frowning over the note of paper, the bll rang, and the next moment Louise came breezily into the room. "Helen Curtis," she said laugh ingly, "I never expected to find you in this lovely day. Come,- let's go out for a walk." "Louise, I think you're a gift from the gods," Helen laughed, the wor ried look disappearing from her eyes.

"You poor child;" Louise said, sympathetically. "I know Just how you feel about it. It places you in a queer position with the other women, too. You see we are not all as decent about an act of kindness as you are." "Isn't it a shame they all dislike her so?" i "Yes, and she has tried so hard. I think she is Improving, too, but this dosen't make one want to be a chosen companion of hers, does it?" "No, that's Just it. You see I want to be kind to her. I am even willing to call on her and have her here, but I don't like to feel that I can't go to a club meeting without having her attach herself to me, and never leave my side, and I don't want to be the only friend she has, so that she confided every single thing In me, whether she ought to mention things to an outsider or not." "She positively has no sense of where to draw the line,". Loiflse agreed, "and yet she is so pathetic ally grateful to anyone who Is kind to her. I can't bear to hurt her, it's like wounding a child who doesn't understand. But listen, Helen, I have an idea. We might get one or two of the other women in the Cur rent Events Club and ask them to co-operate. Explain the matter to them and see if they won't help. Mrs. Stevens would, I know, and that Jolly little Mrs. Cushing. We can count on them, anyway. "Louise, you're a darling," Helen exclaimed rapturously. "Why, I've been worried for days about It. If you really will help, I think we can tactfully manage things and I shall be so grateful to you If you will help in .sharing the burden." (
