However, tho air of finality with which slut folded tho notebook and thereby seemed to dismiss tho great Whitby myttery deceived that shrewd and far seeing man, Farce worth, him self. He saw no connection between ber two sets of questions when she, seem Inj to turn tlio trend of her own mind Into an entirely different channel, put her next query. "And now, Mr. Fa-nsvorth." she paid briskly, "what do you know of the namo 'Sandry'?" Tho lawyer was folding up bla pa pers and putting tbetu carefully away in the drawer. "t'andry! Why not very ranch. Miss Ordway. Kimply that there Is a firm by tho name of Sandry & Mussel dorn which deals In fancy horses nnd racing stock.

Seemingly nothing bad happened In her absence. Bandry wua a little stronger, a bit more Impatient to be at the work, ablo to go about the camp and the tilted meadow. He was pale Mill, and to ber passionate eyes mora to be desired than ever. She noticed quickly how wistfully tender was the face of Slleti. and bow tbe girl stayed apart from Sandry In a certain dlU'.doiico. This was balm to her fears and her anxiety. She went back to bor work with re newed vigor. She was happier bere In this wild country than she bad ever been In ber life, filled with the excite ment of Fame that lured and Love thut beckoned, and, so she believed, able to capture both. Then one day an Incident lock place that cauned ber to see that she must lei him feel the steel beneath Ihe velvet. As usual, Blio eat In tbe golden after noon on tho east porch, br work for the day being over, nnd Sandry lounged on tlio lowest step, his elbow on tho floor und his hat pulled low over bis eyes, cazlng down the valley Presently thero carfl a sound, a rhythmic sound, nt first far off. then coming nearer, tlio rolling thunder of a big borco In full flight, and up from the lower rollway came Illack Ilolt gleaming, dark, splendid. As If she were a part of bim, Sllct rode, sway ing with her Inoso motion that always suggested the very drunkenness of speed, lu her arm the held a great bunch of w ild bleeding hearts, their brilliant crimson splashing gorgeously along her olive throat, where the blue shirt lay open a bit. With a slight pressure of knee and heel the girl setit tho great black horse directly at tho steps of tho porch. As ho enruo on Miss Ordway sprang up with a III t lo scream, overturning her chair. Hut Sandry sat unflinching on tho lowest step, smiting. Within llireo feet of hltn Illack Dolt lowered his head, set bla feet and came id a splen did stop. Slleti leaned forward and dropped her burden In Sundry's lap. showering him with the blood of the bleeding heart She did not look at hira. Then they trotted away around the comer to the siied and Sandry's lips tight ened pitifully as ho gathered up each smallest spray of the woods-treasures Where bho stood back against the wall, one hand at ber pulsing throat. Mips Ordway saw that tightening of the lips, the droop that came Into the man's whole faco. and her eyes nar rowed and hardened like a cat's. That night the tamo to bim in the eating room. "Walter." she Bald. "I'm 'stuck' in the middle of a chapter. Will you go over a few page with me and glvo me Hip benefit of a man's Ideas?" He smiled "I'm afraid mine will not be of much account, but such as they ore you are welcome to tbera." "They will answer," Bald Miss Ord way, "a woman cannot write from her self for nieu alie mut write from man to man. I'll bring my manuscript out bere." And turning, she went from hira to the sanctuary of the little south room When she returned she carried a hand ful of closely typewritten pages. They drew up one of the pine benches, spread out the manuscript be tween the catchup bottles and sut down together. Instantly with the touch of the shift- . Ing sheets In her fingers Mis Ordway seemed to drift away from the per sonal. She became tletaclud, absorbed, swallowed up In the thrall of work and Sandry bnd a feeling of what such a work must mean to one. ! "Now see," aho said, half excitedly, "here Is tho point about which 1 am trifle In doubt, liut 1 will have to sketch the situation for you so you can get a grip on It." I She turned toward him, spreading out flat on the paper one exquisite hand. Auiontr, ber other hidden vani ties. Poppy Ordway cherished nn Inor . dinute pi ulo In these bauds of hers ' und she knew their value und their po tenry lo the last atom, ".Vltb nn unconscious appreciation Sundry now looked down at It where It spread across the page. Uncon selously. too. bis mind caught a shad owy comparison the memory of the olive-colored, slim hands of ths girl Slletz Lut aho was speaking aud be looked again. "Now Buppose my hero Is confront ed with a man his friend, It hap pens who. In the plnuslhlo ond un Impeachable methods of modern busl ness. hns calmly become possessed of my beros wealth. There Is no poa bible way of touching the swindler, for It has been (lono In a manner Hint gives it tho seeming of legality. Yet the victim knows in bis heart that the other Is a tbief. Now here Is mv point" Miss Ordway was talking Rlowly as If thinking carefully and no one listen Ing would bavo suspected that the words she uttered were purely- nio t hanleal. having been written out and memorized thai afternoon, and that the boIo occupation lit for a man Is wnriuro. Through schools, endowed nnd under royal patronage; through other enterprises, ond especially through tho demands of modern busi ness life, new avenues for employ ment and advancement aro opening for women, ond In another generation It Is altogether likely that tho wom en of Ureeco will bo found with heir sister of tho West, demanding as rights what (hey now regatd is great privileges.

Could be go out among men wltb bis head up, not deeming himself a thief? And would tbo modern man of average honor do such a thing?" Miss Ordway was leaning forward, teemlngly absorbed In ber problem, her eye on Sandry's fuce, where con flicting expressions were' struggling for the mastery. "In a momeritl" she was saying to herself, eager as a bound; "In a mo- 1 ww : . .,! hi !' iij,: raBo' : life 3' "Y"1 Mirs Ordway Was Talking Slowly. me;it be will commit himself!" for the bright, blue glance of the young owner wavered a bit, ho opened hi lips, shut hi hand upon tho oilcloth und hi jaw hardened with tautened muscles. "No! He wouldn't bo a thief thai would bo tbo right law." Cvery nerve in Miss Ordwny's body Jumped, though thero was no outward sign, as the tension that bad been Blowing between them snapped with Hie votco of Siletz. The girl bad stopped on the far sld of the room, unnoticed by either, and now she stood leaning forward with her hand upon the tablu, ber braids hanging beside them. Tho Bhadow of her parted hair was over her eyes. Mis Ordwny's fingers crawled into her palm rigid with a desiro to Inlllct bodily pain upon this uninvited hi u ii deter, liut fcileU was of tho wilder nets and she did not know she had committed a faux pas. Bho knew only that sho bad become absorbed in the exigencies of this mythical man confronted by so grave a problem nnd she spoke a unconsciously a a child. With a deep breath exhaled slowly, ns If a Bwimmcr drew In sweet air Sandry lifted his eyes to ber. "Iho right law!" he said. "Yes S'leti Is right. And a man would do It If be had on Incentive grent enough ven a sane man of today with the average honor. And be would hold up bis bend if ho was of the strength to do tho thing at all." For a moment Miss Ordway But si lent, retarding hha Intently. "Hood!" sliu eaid ot lust, "then you think I may go on without danger of overdrawing my character?" "Unquestionably." Sho dropped her eyes, toylns with a boiio-hanoled folk lying near "Thanks. Walter," Bho said a: last gently; "1 shall go on with moro eonll denco. It Is a daring thing to mako my hero do but tho woman lovos him In splto of a thousand crimes abnvo and beyond them." Her heart was beating so fast thnt her white throat fluttered spasmod Ically at the Boft hollow nt tbe base and sho knew that she took a chance She knew also, as Sundry rose ah ruptly and left the room, that li.j had felt tho Bteel, for hla faco was gray again. In tho sllcnco of tbo llttlo south room sho stood long, staring Into the yellow 11 air. e of the hand lamp ou the stand. Then, suddenly, alio covered ber Mushed face with her bands and shuddered.

GOSNELL Suptrintcndent of Men, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago TEXT Hul thou ahull go unto my country, and to my kindred, and take a wife unto my aon Iwiac lien. 21:4. The twenty-fourth chapter of Gene sis contains the account of the serv ant ot Abraham seeking a bride for his son Isaac. The chapter Is a long ono, contain ing 07 verses, and this fact has led many Bible stu dents to feel that tho Becking of Isaac's bride Is typical ot some spiritual truth. Such Illblo stu dents ngrco that the chapter woll Illustrates tho work of tho Holy Spirit, who is sent foith by God the father to call out tho church, which Is the brldo of hira, typi fied by Isaac, even Jesus Christ our Lovel. Slnco tho Holy Spirit uses men In this sacred work, tbo chapter under consideration furnishes many points of Instruction for tbo soul winner. First of all, we uoto 'that Abraham's servant was noxious for the glory of bis muster. He prnys, "Show kindness unto my master Abraham," This mo tive will affect many things lu our Christian service. On ono occasion, after a sermon, remarkable from tho literary standpoint ns well as In other ;ays, ono of tbo hearers remarked, What beautiful languago tbo preacher used." True servants of Christ are troubled If his face Is veiled, even by beautiful languogo. They would rath er glory In Infirmity If the power ot Christ might rest upon Uiem. Wo bave heard of a church upon tho back ot whoso pulpit was carved this text. Sirs, we would boo Jesus." Every minister who sut behind this pulpit faced this oppeal, ond every worker who hns tho spirit of Abraham's serv ant will seek to heed this appeal. Notice again, that tbo servant of Abraham received guidance. Ho was led to the well where Hebokah watered her flocks aud she was pointed out to him as the bride for hid master. As tho servant cxpreused it, "I being In tho way, tho Lord led mo." Tho writ er has a friend who was a pastor In a southern town. Mo longed for tho salvation of a man who lived out In tho country, but although ho visited his house, he seemed never to find an op portunity to speak with him privately concerning his soul. On one occasion, this minister was Impressed that he should pay a special visit in the hope of reaching tho man In question. As tho Impression persisted, he took tbo train and finally reached the bouso. It looked as If no ono wore at homo and he began to cbldo himself for his foolish trip. Nevertheless, ho rapped at the door, which was opened by the man ho wished to seo and who wel comed him heartily, saying, "I am all alone today and was Just wishing that you would come hero and tell me how to become a Christian." Undoubtedly God still leads his servants. Again tho servant gave gifts to Ro- bekah, Jewels of silver, Jewels of gold and raiment How happy It is that Chrlstlun workers, though poor, a Paul was, may make many rich. Un happy tho Christian worker who has nothing belter to give than bread and soup and clothes. Abraham's servant gave to P.cliclcah on earned of tho riches which should bo hers when sho came Into Isaac's tent. So should Christian workers be filled with an earnest of tho coming glory aud scat ter Its light and blessing to oil thouo to whom them minister. Wo may Bay a word, also, about tha bride. It will ho noted that the serv ant found her by tho well of water. Thoso words may fall under tho eye of somiono who Is sighing to becomo a member of the brldo of Christ. May not the Incident under consideration suggest to him that ho should be found by tho woll of watw, which may hint ot Iho means ot graco. When Charles Spurgeon was seeking to know the lovo of Christ, ho wont from church to church throughout London, trusting that the word ot somo minister might bring to him tho blessing ho sought. He ot last found peace lu a rrlmltlve Methodist chapel, where ho had taken shelter from a suowotorm ono Sunday morning. We have no doubt that with a similar spirit of earnest seeking, many who sit In darkness would soonr bo walking In the light. And what a lesson is conveyed by tho fact that as Boon as Robckah had tho ring ond bracelet upon her hand, sho ran ond told them of her moth. cr's bouso nil that Abraham's servant had said. As ouo has put It, wo must olthor glvo our rollglon oway or clso give It up. Would that all of us wero as busy In spreading tho good tidings os was Undo John Vassnr. Dr. A. J. Gordon tolls ot once' driving along a country road wth this good man. A gentleman stopped them to Inquire Cue way to Dcdham. After tho directions woro given, Undo Johu Vassar turned to the man and said, "Frlond,- I too am a stranger and pilgrim In tho earth, but I am seeking a hotter coun try, even a heavenly. Allow mo o ask It you know the way to that coun try and are Journeying thlthor?" It was dono so naturally and sincerely that the man stood as If epollbouud under this gracious appeal. . After tho long Journey across the desert, Abraham's servant brought Rebecca to bis mastor and told Isaac all thing that he had done. How happy they bo who will be ablo, at the last, to give an account of their stow ardahlp with Joy and who will com bringing tholr sheaves with thorn. He so rich In God that you can at ford to do without everything olse. I!'- .3.. ? .tin'i Druggist Knows the Best Kidney Remedy 7nr mm-A Oisn twrntv veara T kava been successfully aellinc; 1.
