What happened? I‘m telling you K you‘ll listen a moment, He‘s in hospital nowâ€"be lucky if he gots out in a month, He‘ll be luckier still if he ever drives again. You know the sharp bend in the road just east of Jonesville? That‘s He was a good driver all right, so far as driving goes, but he seemed to think the whole road belonged to him. You know what I meanâ€"could not keep to his own side, and thought he bad as much right to drive on the leftâ€"hand side of the road as on the right. I don‘t suppose he thought anything about the danger of it, and I‘m doggone sure he never paid much attention to the rule of the road. What about him? Well, I‘m telling you. I had warned that man at least a souple of times before. He used to drive pretty regularly along No. 2 Highway. Sort of salesman, 1 should judge. to the palace. It was possible extra ears might be sent with him carryâ€" ing more troopers; that an unknown devious route might be taken; even possible that the picture might be abown in Hydrapore cinema before being brought to the palace, It would be more easy and as effective to waylay and capture the cars driving in to Hydrapore, since there would be less caution and watch for pos. wible attack as there would be with the Courier and his package in the ear. The details were arranged, and But after a close and anxious disâ€" cussfon he altered the proposed plan to capture Glynn on the way out ‘"‘There is need of the other plan after all," he said. "At what hour was the car to leave the palace to bring the courier?" The Vulture grunted. "When we learn it has failed will be time enâ€" ough to consider further," he said, and dismissed his man. But ten minâ€" utes later he had him back again, and Abdul shivered apprehenaively as he entered and heard the bitter raving and reviling of his master. "It has failed," he screeched, "The train is safe past the chosen spot, And report comes from Hydrapore that it was delayed because the line was found broken before the train reached the spot." He raved off into a fresh tirade against the fools who had not waited the right moment to do their work, but broke off sudden. ly. Abdul Ali cowered abjectiy and atuttered. "It is onlyâ€"it is because #o many plans have failed that I â€" that it might be better to have anâ€" other in hand." The Vulture glared at him. "What do you meanâ€"if the train should arâ€" rive?"" he demanded savagely, "I have word of the hour this af. ternoon the Secretary is to leave the Palace," said Abdul Ali humbly. "It would be possible to make a plan to stop the cars coming from Hydraâ€" pore and seize the flying courier it it should happen the train does ar. rive." ‘ "No, not yet," said The Vulture, smiling complacently again. "And see you make no mention of such acciâ€" dent being possible until after the news of it. Have you more to re-‘ port?" Abdul Ali still waited as if he had not yet finished, and when The Vulâ€" tnure noticed this and demanded was there anything more, the man cring. ed and asked if any news had been heard yet of any sad accident to the train, "It is well," said The Vulture comâ€" placently. "Reward the man for the information he obtained and sent you. He has done well, and it is no matâ€" ter of his the arrangements he reâ€" ports will not now have any use for ws."

A big hospital bill, and a big lawsuit for heavy damâ€" ages to face when he gets outâ€"just because he would not keep to his own side. Say! people are funny; risk their lives, cars, and everything for the sake of a second of time. Yes, you‘ve said it That‘s ny] chance in the world. Just sideswiped him like nobody‘s business. Tossed his car clean over into the ditch with him underneath it. I came along just after it happenâ€" ed and helped to get him out, Sure he was unconsciousâ€"1 wondered if he‘d get into hospital alive, where it happened. Our friend swings over to the leftâ€"hand side of the road â€"probably figured he could save a second in rounding the bend. Didn‘t figure there might be cars coming the other way. Well, there happened to be two of them. The first managed to pull over, but the second hadn‘t a ’to the official who had gone to Karâ€" achi to meet Glynn, and had accomâ€" panied him in the train. It read â€" "Come with Captain Elliman and Hasim in the closed car sent for you, The escorting car and two troopers will follow you closely. The officer of the mounted escort will ride with you to the outskirts of the city where you will leave him and drive off as fast as you can,. In case of any disâ€" turbance in the city, change the arâ€" ranged route as Hasim directs. â€" The Secretary carried a letter and this was deftly opened with the great. est care and read. It was signed and sealed by the Vizier and addressed ’ The whole thing was over in a minute; all those who had been in the cars lay like trussed chickens behind a dense clump of bamboo by the roadside with their captors busâ€" ily engaged clearing the road, while a couple searched the Secretary, Then one by one, the troopers and others{ were stripped, and those who had captured them dressed carefully in’ their clothes. At the same instant as the first blow was sitruck on the foremost car‘s troopers, the two men in the car behind heard a harsh command from behind them, warning them not to move, and at the same time sinâ€" ewy hands reached in over the back| of the open car to seize a coat colâ€" lar and thrust a pistol under the| nose of each man, Their driver, with & pistol staring at him from both sides, meekly obeyed orders and climbed down. of his head. At the same instant, while other men leaped from the ditch, the driver was seized and takâ€" en completely unawares, jerked out into the road, while the bewildered Secretary, before he could grasp what was happening, found the car doors flung open andtwo men hurling in on top of him, bundling him out with a cloth over his head and rope about ; his arms. ‘ The trooper who had jumped down to kick and curse the men into movâ€" ing their carts, dropped like a stone under a cudgel‘s blow on the back car‘s horn they paid no attention and when it drove to within a dozen yards and the trooper swung down the carters, still screaming at each other, hurried to the car and began to claâ€" mor to the Secretary for justice, for: the punishment of the fool who had driven so badly, for the rogue who had upset a cart and its load. The following car with the two troopers in it had pulled up a dozen yards behind the Secretary‘s a mo. ment before the vociferating carters reached the foremost car, Then in the twinkling of an eye, the stupid‘ villagers‘ squabbles diverged to very different and sinister lines. ' to block what little passage was left. Three or four almost naked men stood wrangling and screaming and threatening to come to blows with the cudgels they brandished at each other, To the angry hooting of the As iB d iafeeto e visr s grve ies mmaeainuann command them not time sinâ€" the back coat colâ€" When merding the gaping holes in lboys' stockings try tacking a piece of net of similar color over the hole, Darn in and out through the meshâ€" es, stitching firmly into the sides each time of crossing, and you will have a good, firm darn. l This will save you the trouble and expense of having to have your mirâ€" ror resilvered, As long as you can keep the damp out the brown patches will not come. If you think your walls have the slightest suggestion of dampness you can preserve your mirror by gum. ming a piece of roughâ€"surfaced paper on the back. Then take a candle and rub it thoroughly all over the paper. The chief cause of mirror disease is damp, The makers put an oxide backing on the mirror to keep out dampness aand protect the silvering, but when this begins to wear damp finds its way in. If there is no deflection then it is the fatal kind, which means that the silvering inside the mirror is affect. ed. In that case the only thing you can do is to call in professional aid and have the mirror resilvered. To determine which it is you have to look at the brown patch to see whether it is reflected. The reflection means you can remove it with methy. lated spirit because it is on the surâ€" face, When There are two kinds of mirror dis. ease. One is fatal and the other is not. Worse stillâ€"one of your own mir. rors may have contracted the comâ€" plaint, _ You have probably stayed in a house where the mirror in your bed. room had that strange disease which only mirrors get, and found your dressing sadly hampered by having to dodge the brown patches whenâ€" ever you wanted to see your reflec-‘ tion.

A few minutes be. ,fore the Karachi train was due, they saw two men run scrambling down the steep embankment, closed in and seized them just as a dynamite or blasting powder charge exploded on the line above. They found that &A section of rail had been broken and twisted into such a shape that the Karachi train travelling at any speed,| must inevitably have been derailed| and sent hurtling down to utter wreck. , The police at Hydrapore dhad been telephoned the night before by an unâ€" ' known informant who told them a rail ’was to be removed and the train de. railed and wrecked at a spot exactly named and described, The informant gave an urgent warning that no reâ€" port of this fact should be allowed to leak out because this might mean a renewed attempt at another spot of which no warning could be given,. body was allowed to alight. But soon learned why. | Glynn would have got off to make ,enquirles when he saw another light ‘enxine with a van _ attached creep along towards them from the other end of the embankment and halt to disgorge a gang of workmen, who set busily to work about the line. But‘ when he went to dismount, he found police stationed at the door and along all the train, and was told that noâ€" body was allowed to alight.

The child with a rheumatic heartâ€"that is when the [ valves are damaged by inflammation due to the poison of rheumatism â€" should have his life unobtrusively su. pervised by the family physician, He should not, of course, be deprived of exercise, but exercise must be mod. erate and regulated, that is, suited to the child‘s condition.
