At the door he listened to Reed‘s regular breathing; caught the sound of it along with the ticking of his watch and the thumping of his heart. Then heventured as far as the water trough and drank heavily from the fron cup %&t hung at the pump. The first moughful was as colorless as fiight; he forced it down like solid food rather than water. But it reâ€" Â¥ived him, and then he drank reâ€" freshingly. He pbured water on his head, on his wrists; he held it against his temples, he washed his hands beside the trough, and he walked back to the granary steadâ€" ied, strengthened, sane. He had a feeling of having been dragged back to life after an hour of death. He undressed and went to bed, but as he lay thinking he began to‘ realize that his saneness was more terrible than his insanity. More| terrible because it confirmed his inâ€" sanity. Now, viewing the matter clearly, weighing as a sane man, almost as an impartial man, he knew l there could be no safety while Jackâ€" son Stake lived. It was not Jackâ€" son‘s life against Cal‘s; it was Jackson‘s life against Reed‘s, and between these two his choice was instantly _ taken. His _ decision clashed with all his theories, with all his fine principles for a society clothed in order.

Women Owe Health By ROBERT STEAD revelation of the eternal warfare between the ideal and the real; between that which should be and that which»is. He had to accept the circumstances in which he found himself; they were not of his makâ€" ing. A Even if he gave his life along with JacKson‘s his cause wéuld be saved. He was willing to do> that. Ii was not a too great price to pay for Reed‘s freedom and for his right to admission into the body oft soâ€" clety. Even if Jackson and he should be locked in death the truth would be locked with them Snd Reed would go free. The child stirred in his .sleep; flung an arm which fell across Cal‘s chest; turned and nestled against him. Cal enveloped him in his arms and clung to him tremendously, as though Reed were his safety; as though the man in reality were clinging to the child. . . "Give you up? You! My God!" he breathâ€" ed to himself. "Nor leave you. Jackâ€" son Stake has no claim on nty life, ‘ but I have a claim on his. My claim lls dueâ€"overdueâ€"and I proi)ose to collect it. How? I must think about ’that. I have until Saturday. I must find a way." â€" Cal awoke early from a restless sleep and sat up suddenly, uncertain as to where he was. His mind seemâ€" ed, during the night, to have gone scattering through the universe; now it came hurrying back from all the compassâ€"points of time and place to occupy its accustomed citaâ€" del. As its units rushed in they arâ€" ‘rayed_ themselves . in order and igradually he became able to think coherently. He pieced together the issue with Jackson Stake; built up the two walls of their positions.until all seemed about to collapse again. Then, in a panic, he thrust the keyâ€" stone into place; the great central idea on which he had slept; the conclusion that the world was not big enough for Reed and Jackson Stake. He saw it clearly now and knew that there was only one soluâ€" tion. . . . Besides, it was fair. ’Jackson Stake‘s life was . surely small enoygh compensation to exact |m return for Celesta‘s. ‘ Suddenly his heart crawled up inâ€" i to a heap, a little strangulated heap of crinkly tissue lost between his lungs. Suppose a jury would not hang him for that; suppose he tmlght successfully invoke theâ€" unâ€" written lawâ€"he dared not invoke it. He could not do.so withqut reveal ing his secret. That would give to the infamy of Reed‘s origin a pubâ€" licity aâ€" thousand times broader than anything that Jackson Stake | could do or say. No; he would stand \| silenced in court, unable to speak a .\ word in his own defence. Was ever | a soul so helplessly in a trap? It seemed to Cal that all the concenâ€" trated cunning of the devilâ€"world had been employed for his complete i undoing. "And who has a better right to exact it?" he demanded of the tire with the blowâ€"out which hung in the rays of the rising sun. "Who has a better right? No jury would hang me for that." "How say you, Calvin Beach; guilty or not guilty?" "Guilty, my lord." "The first witness for the king." ~ ‘"The first witness for the deâ€" fence." "‘There are no witnesses for the |â€" defence, my lord." "No witnesses for the defence?" "No, my lord." "Let the prisoner be examined. Prisoner at the bar, you are charged with the murder of Jackson Stake. You have pleaded Builty to the charge, and have been unable, or unwilling, to call any witnesses in your defence. The evidence against you 4s very strong. Nevertheless, it is the business of the Crown to assure not only your prosecution, but you fair defence.. You must be able to open to the court informaâ€" tion which has not yet been dis closed. Be frank. Frankness can | cost you nothing. ‘Tellâ€" the court what you know of this matter." * "I have nothing to say, ty lord." | "You admit that you kiffed Jackâ€" son Stake." e f , "Yes, my lord."

With his hands about his throat Cal sprang from his bed and staggered into the open air. Cal had half finished with his horses when he dropped his curryâ€" comb and brush and huried back to the granary. The fear of the unâ€" seen Wwas terrific upon him. Danger lurked about the head of the boy; & danger which, if he only could see, he might avert. He must find a way out of this hideous jungle as soon as possible. but until then he must guard the boy as an army guards from attack its flank and rear. For the front he had no misâ€" givings. It was not from that direcâ€" tion his enemy would strike. Reed still slept, his neck bare, his arms thrown wide, his legs\enâ€" tangled in a wreckage of blams. Cal gently shook him awake. "Come, old scout," he said, when the big eyes looked up to his, wonderingly, "I want you to.go to the field with me this morning. Hustle; we‘ve no time to lose. See, let me help you." Wondering somewhat over his early awakening and unusual assistâ€" ance Reed clambered into his simple clothing. "Come to the stable with me until I have finished with the horses and then we will go up to breakfast together," said Cal, and the boy obeyed. "No, my lord." The delay had made Cal late for breakfast, and the porridge course had nearly disappeared, when Cal and Reed came in. There they were, all of them, even young Jackâ€" son take at his father‘s right; Mrs. Stake moving back and ferth beâ€" tween the table and the stove in a manner that always suggested to Cal a sort of domestic treadmill. It came as a sudden shock to him to see them all seated there, eating peacefully. Did they not know the heavens had collapsed within the last twelve hours? He would have the kitchen in disorder; to have been prepared to see seats vacant, heard moaning and shouting and the ‘sounds of a fierce strugile. Could they not sense that tragedy stalked among them? This outward peacefuinessâ€" "Hello, D.D. said Gander cor dially.
