C. CHAPTER XX.---Continued. Airs. Allen was in an adjoining room evading to Mrs. Green. Mrs. Green was a woman one could love at a glance and love always; her sweet old face was flushed with pink, her brown «tfes were soft and gentle, her silken White hair was brushed in waves back from her face and softened by a cap of lace; her voice was what a woman's voice should be, sweet but firm, low bat perfectly modulated. She took Dolores right into her motherly heart, knowing every word of her history ao far as her son knew it, knowing, too, without being told, that this was the girl her son loved. And the slen­ der, silent girl seemed to melt toward her as toward no one else, though at first it was very bitter this baring to accept hospitality from the mother of tfee man who had been so wronged. She had been forced to accept the feospitaiity of his mother--been forced and with no excuse to place the ac­ ceptance out of the question, because there was no excuse she could offer when they took her father from the little house, bearing him carefully to the carriage waiting for him at the gate, soft with cushions and pillows of down, to the station and the city some thirty miles below the town down the valley, with Doctors Dunwiddie and Grey and her uncle. They had every­ thing that money could buy to gain comfort for him. A car was reserved i for him on the train; everything ab­ solutely was done that could be for his comfort. And then they had forced upon her the acceptance of this hospitality. Mrs. Green was watching Dolores through the open doorway, leaning back on the cushioned sofa, her soft hands folded in her lap at this her "rest time" of the day, as she listened to Mrs. Allen's reading, her thoughts somehow tangled with that and the girl at the western window in the sun­ set lights and the boy of her heart-- theit only child, the best son, she often said, laughing, flhat a mother ever had. Dora was partly in shadow though ker face, too, caught the glow from above. The silence that had followed Dolores all her life seemed to fall like a' veil around her, and even to her ootasin for the time. The sunset lights faded aind died; a mellow darkness enveloped the eastern slope of the mountain; the road that wound up its side was like a slender thread in the darkness. Suddenly the sound of a tihurch bell smote the air, and Dolores started, turning from the window. "What is it?" she asked of Dora, and Dora arose as she answered her: "Church bells, Lorie," touching toe hand nearest her shyly, as though sne were half afraid. "This is Wednesday «fening, and the bell is ringing for pijayer meeting." Dolores made no further remark on the subject She knew nothing of prayer meetings or church bells; the? tiad little interest for her; her thoughts were with her father, with young Green, with many things out side of this commonplace subject. She turned from the window, however, bringing her face into shadow, Mrs. Allen had ceased her reading, and was watching the girls with an inscrutable expression in her eyes. Had she failed sixer all her planning? There seemed no difference in the friendship -be­ tween this girl and the son of their host And as she could not win Dora from her cousin she could at least make this stupid girl feel some of the bitterness she held in her own heart. That, at least, was worth planning tbr. She was so deeply buried in these thoughts that she started ner­ vously when Mrs. Green called the girls in her soft, low voice. "My dears," she said, "are you not ready to join us now? We have watch­ ed the picture you make until now we Wish yourselves. There is room for each of you beside me here on the sofa, or will Dora play something sweet and low to charm away the darkness while Lorie and 1 sit here together ?" Before they could answer her, how­ ever, quick steps sounded on the piazza, the onter door was opened, and young Green entered the room where the elder woman sat. Mrs. Green arose in haste, her face suddenly paling. "Charlie, what is the matter?" "Don't be frightened, mother," Char­ lie said, hurriedly with a quick glance around the room, taking her hands in She crossed the room with no sign of haste, and stood before Mrs. Green. "I must go to my father," she said. Her voice was perfectly even, but the words were slow, as her lips were stiff. "God forgive me!" young Green ex­ claimed, under his breath, clenching his hands at his side. "Mother, why did you not tell me? Why did you not tell me!" turning fiercely upon Mrs. Allen in the darkness, in sudden distrust of her, her subtle words re­ turning to him, losing half their mean­ ing. Mrs. Green took the girl's hand In hers, and her voice was tender as a mother's when she spoke. "Lorie," she said softly. She liked the tender name. "Lorie, my dear--" Dolores interrupted her. "I must go to my father," she re- i We have him safe and sure." have heard, no matter how trivial H might appear. Just before the deed was committed Hal and I disturbed two fellows in the act of stealing the mare. It was a dark night, and they had her out of the stable, her hoofs bound to deaden the sound, but she would whinny in her excitement and terror of the rough men, and that saved her. We were late home that evening from the house of a friend, and hearing Bess we went at once to the stables. One of the fellows we caught, bat the other made good his escape. "We tried our best to get the fellow we had to tell where his comrade was," the young man continued, his voice steady now and natural; "but he was silent as the grave; I give him credit for that There is an honor among even these rongh, lower men that one must respect. Then we wait­ ed for your father, as you know, de­ pending considerably upon his evi­ dence, for he knew the condition of the mare's hoofs when he shod her, and that there was nothing wrong then save a slight lameness from going too long without shoes over the rough road. But even without his evidence we have succeeded even fetter than I had dared hope." Dolores did not move. She did not quite understand this that he was tell­ ing her. How could they succeed with­ out her father, and how could they get the guilty man-- "It was only yesterday," Green went on, and there was a touch of pleasure in his voice that Dolores caught with a dull sense of dead pain. "It was only yesterday that we caught the fellow, but we have him safe and sure enough now." Surely they had not--Dolores caught her breath, and her swift, terrified eyes flashed upon his startlingly. His own eyes darkened as though with troubled thought "The men we sent out in search of him found him yesterday, Dolores, not a stone's throw from where your father fell on the opposite mountain. The first fellow we have sentenced to five years for attempted horse steal* ing, and the other has had his trial to-day. It was sharp and swift, I as­ sure you Such a dastardly deed de­ served the severest penalty the laT7 allows." (To bq continued.) THE TREATY WITH P A N A M A SISTERS OF CHARITY --Jfa---- I i ̂ Use Pe-ru-na for CoOghs, Colds, Grip and Catarrh--A Congressman's Letter. S&lient Points of the Agreement Between the Blew |i-|#outh American Republic and the United States. The New York Sun publishes the full text of the treaty between the United States and the republic of Panama for the construction, mainten­ ance, operation, sanitation and protection of a ship eanal across the Isthmus of Panama, and the use, occupation, and control In perpetuity of a zone ox! land through which the canal will be dug. ^ The treaty was signed at Washi ngton on Nov. "18.) by Secretary of State Hay for the United States and Minister Bunau-Varllla for the repub­ lic of Panama. The text of the treaty has befeh held secret by the government and only brief unofficial summaries have been published. The salient features are as follows: pea ted, in the same set voice, her eyes not moving from Mrs. Green's face. "How can I go?" "You cannot go," Mrs. Green said, gently, "dear; not just now; there is no way to go until midniught, then the train will be due here, and Charlie and Mrs. Allen will take you there." "I must go to my father," she said, "at once. Tell me how to get there, please." "There Is no way but the train at midnight," he replied. "But I must go now," she said, gravely; "if there is a ay way. Could we not go on horses? I must go." He shook his head slowly. "Even starting now and taking the fastest horses in the stables we could get there only half an hour sooner, and the ride would be too exhausting for it to pay. We will wait. Miss Johnson, and take the train and be in time--I am sure we will be in time. Do not worry. I would get you there If it were possible, believe me--Dolores." It was the old voice and the old tone of uttering the sad name. She gave no sign that she heard, but she heard. She said nothing as she turned from him, and went out of the room like one in a dream--went out of the room and up the stairs to her room, but the tone and the one low word followed her, like a note of tenderness, through her stony sorrow. And when she had gone young Green turned to his mother, like a boy, in his sore distress, and she, understanding, comforted him. Then he left the room and Dora went up after Dolores, and the time dragged on leaden feet ere the time came for them to go to the train, when Dolores came down the wide staircase like a spirit in her trailing black dress and bonnet, her face more paliid than the light of the moon on the moun­ tains. Dora was behind her, but she seemed to notice no one, but passed out on to the steps of the piazza where young Green and Mrs. Allen were waiting for her, as though she were moving machinery and not through any wish of her own. "Such an unheard of thing, going off like this in the dead of night," Mrs. Allen said, sharply, showing her heart for the moment in her anger. "Thank heaven Dora isn't like her." "Hush, Nurse Allen. If I were half as brave as Lorie I would be the proudest girl in the world. I could not do what she has, for my father for all I love him as I do." And Dora's soft hand was on the woman's mouth, and her pleading face turned to her. And these words out of all the others seemed to reach Dolores' mind. She stood for a moment silently on the moonlit steps, her face immovable and pallid against the dead black of her gown, then she turned to Dora and cried In sudden fierceness born of pain i pain her gentler cousin could nev­ er understand. 'And your father loves you, Dora-- every one loves you. And no one--has ever--loved, me." HOMES OF WARRIOR ANTS. Pests In Artillery Used to Destroy 8outh Africa. Artillery charged with grapeshot has recently been employed to destroy great fortresses which the termites, or warrior ants, make in British tropi­ cal countries. In South .Africa the termites work enormous havoc. They live in a republic of their own, and some of them have wings. The work­ men, the soldiers and the queens, how­ ever, have none. The workmen con­ struct their buildings, the soldiers de­ fend the colony and keep order, and the females, or queens, are cared for uy all the others. These become. In point of fact, mere egg-laying ma­ chines, which have to remain tied to one spot. Their nesting homes Are often twenty feet high and pyrimidal in shape. Cattle climb upon them without crushing them. A dozen men can find shelter in some of their cham­ bers, and native nunters often lie In wait Inside them when out after wild animals. The ants construct galleries, which are as wide as the bore of a large cannon, and which run three or four feet underground. The nests are said to be 500 times as high as the ants' body, and it has been estlmatea that if men built houses on the same scale, they would be four times as high as the pyramids of Egypt.

Do­ lores--Dolores must not know--yet. 'She can not get to him, and it would do no good." A dead silence reigaed through the rooms for a moment, then the lace cifftalns were drawn aside from the distant window, and Dolores came out; she had unconsciously pushed Dora's hands from her arm and stood alone with the darkness around her, the light of the faded sunset setting h#r la outline against the window. Find Ancient Scotch Bridge. Laborers engaged in digging a trench for the new drain along the White Sands recently disclosed an arch, pier and buttress of the Old Bridge, which tradition says was first erected at Deverogilla, though in 1620 it was reconstructed after having been wrecked by the flood. At a much later period, when the New Bridge was built and Buccleuch street opened up through the Castle Gardens, and the level of the old Sand Beds raised over which the river used to spread, some of the arches of the Old Bridge at the Dumfries end were buried by the road being brought over thein. It is one of these, the one next to the bridge as it is now seen, that was disclosed. It is in good preservation, except that the crown of the arch, which is only about a foot and a half below the level of the pavement has been broken through. At nine feet down in the cut­ ting for the drain the gravel of the old bed of the river was turned up.-- The Scotsman. CHAPTER XXI. Stop Slaughter of Elephants. The British government is taking steps to stop the indiscriminate slaughter of elephants in its African possessions. Many thousands are killed every year for the sake of their ivory. The governors of the various colonies have been directed to pro­ hibit by every means In their power the killing of the huge animals, as it is feared that unless prompt meas­ ures are taken elephants in Africa will soon become very scarce. Even in Death. As they were whirled aiong through the night and the darkness young Green's mind was full of the one thought he must tell Dolores about the trial in court that afternoon, be­ fore they reached the station, and away from Mrs. Allen's hearing. "Miss Johnson--Dolores," he said, presently. Her bead was leaning against the back of the seat and her eyes were closed, but he was pretty certain she was not asleep. "Dolores, you remember the laming of my mare just after I first met you, and the ex­ citement and indignation among us because of it and. our inability to catch the fellow, though suspicion pointed strongly in one direction?" She roused with a sinking at heart when the young man spoke; she shook off every other thought and sat wait­ ing for what might be coming upon her. "Dolores," he said, and he tried to keep his voice steady, for her sake as well as his Own; "we have been fol­ lowing up every clew, letting nothing Valuable Old Coins. George J.

His Idea of Hell. Not long ago a representative of a very "yellow" newspaper called upon the Rev. Dr. Smyth of New Haven for the purpose of obtaining an ex­ pression iof that divine's views touch­ ing the herafter. "I should like, Dr. Smyth," began the young man, "to get your idea of hell."

"It seems strange to me that yon should engage your passage to Liver­ pool in such a slow Bteamer," re­ marked Wiggins to his friend Grind­ er; "a lower fare certainly could be no inducement to a man of your means." "My boy," replied Grinder, "I have amassed my fortune by always seeing that I got the full worth of my money. If I can get fifteen days' board on the ocean for less money than six or seven would cost, why shouldn't I take it?" In every country of the civilized world Sisters of Charity are known. Not only do they minister to the spiritual and intel­ lectual needs of the charges committed to their care, but they also minister to their bodily needs. With so many children to take care of and to protect from climate and disease, these wise and prudent Sisters have found Peruna a never failing safeguard. Dr. Hartman receives many letters from Catholic Sisters from all over tho United States. A recommend recently received from a Catholic institution in Detroit, Mich., reads as follows: Or. S. B.
