'I'( 3 A]! this ran quickly through Mary's I mind and brought relief, but it did not . cure the uneasy sense, weighing like lead upon her heart, that she should take no chance with this man’s life and 2 should put no further weight of sacri- i flee upon him, but should go to the king and tell him a straightforward : story, let it hurt where it would. With ’ a little meditation, however, came a thought which decided the question and absolutely made everything bright again for her, so great was her capa~ bility for distilling light. She would go at once to Windsor with Jane. and . would dispatch a note to Brandon at Newgate telling him upon his escape to come to her. He might remain in E hiding in the neighborhood of Wind- , sor, and she could see him every day. ‘ The time had come to Mary when to “see him every day” would turn Plu- , tonian shades into noonday brightness ’ and weave sunbeams out of utter dark- ness. With Mary, to resolve was to ‘ act; so the note was soon dispatched ‘ by a page, and one hour later the girls were on their road to Windsor. “What is this?” cried Henry. “My sister writing to Brandon? God’s death! My Lord of Buckingham, the suspicions you whispered in my ear may have some truth. We will let this fellow remain in Newgate and allow our good people of London to take their own course with him.” Henry and Buckingham were in- tensely indignant at the conduct of the scurvy hurghers, and an immense amount of self importance was dis- played and shamefully wasted. This manifestation was at its highest when the messenger from Newgate arrived .With Mary's poor little note as intend- ed by the duke. To Master Charles Brandon, greeting: Soon you will be at liberty, perhaps ere this Is to your hand. Surely would I not leave you long in prison. I go to \Vlndsor It once, there to live in the hope that I may see you speedily. MARY. Buckingham went to Windsor next day and told Mary that arrangements had been made the night before for Brandon’s escape and that he had heard that Brandon had left for New He caused the keeper to send the note to the king, suppressing the fact that he, Buckingham, had any knowl- edge of it. The duke then at once started to Greenwich, where he ar- rived and sought the king a few min- utes before the time he knew the mes- senger with Mary’s note would come. The king was soon found, and Buck- ingham, in apparent anger. told him that the city authorities refused to de- liver Brandon except upon an order un- der the king's seal. The note was handed to Henry. who read aloud as follows: exhausted. She remained at Windsor nursing her love for the sake of the very pain it brought her and dreading the battle for more than life itself which She knew she should soon be called upon to fight Buckingham went to Newgate, ex- pecting to make a virtue, with Mary, out of the necessity imposed by the king's command in freeing Brandon. He had hoped to induce Brandon to leave London stenlthily and immediate- ly by representing to him the evil con- sequences of a break between the citi- zens and the king, liable to grow out of his release, and relied on Brandon's generosity to help him out, but when he found the note which Mary’s page had delivered to the keeper of Newgate he read it, and all his plans were changed. At times she would fall into one of her old fits of anger because Brandon had not come to see her before he left, but soon the anger melted into tears, and the tears brought a sort of joy when she thought that he had run away from her because he loved her. After Brandon’s defense of her in Bil- lingsgate Mary had begun to see the whole situation diflerently, and every- thing was changed. She still saw the same great distance between them as before, but with this diflerence, she was looking up now. Before that event he had been plain Charles Bran- don and she the Princess Mary. She .was the princess still. but he was I demigod. 80 Mary remained at Windsor and grieved and wept and dreamed and longed that she might see across the miles of billowy ocean to her love, her love, her love! Meanwhile Brandon had his trial in secret down in London and had been condemned to be hanged, drawn and quartered for having saved to her more than life itself. Put not your trust in princesses! son, she was as wrong as possible just at the time when she thought she was entirely right, and when the cost of a mistake was at its maximum. en'by Buckingham's help, seemed' safe. and, though not entirely satisfying. she could not see how it could miscarry. Buckingham was notably jealous of his knightly word, and she had an bounded faith in her influence over him. In short, like many another per. She recoiled also from the thought of Brandon’s “escape.” and it hurt her that he should be a fugitive from the justice that should reward him. yet she quieted these disturbing sugges- tions with the thought that it would be only for a short time, and Brandon. she knew. would be- only too ;‘\d to make the sacrifice if it purchased for her freedom from the worse than dam- nation that lurked in the French mar- riage. Saving the Pennies. Some people's idea of economy is to break every dollar they get hold or so; as to save up the pennies they receive in change. ' Mary thanked the duke, but had no niles for any one. Her supply was Give the world more sunshine and 110 n: comm] Another peculiar freak of weather * .we must be thankful to escape is the .“wllliwau.” This form of storm is confined to that farofl island Tierra del Fuego. The coast is indented with deep flords crowned with high moun- - tains. Down from their gorges drops the “williwau.” A low. hoarse mutter- ing is heard in the distance. Sudden- ly, without the least preliminary puff, a fearful blast of wind drops upon the ' sea. The water is not raised into waves, but driven into fine dust. For- tunately the shock lasts but ten or twelve seconds, and calm follows at once, for no vessel could stand such a wind for even half a minute. During ‘ the coming and going of a “williwau” the barometer may be watched to drop a tenth of an inch or more and rise again at once. The “canna” of Spain is a fog we may be grateful that we do not have. It is a dry, yellow mist which some~ times hides the sun for days at a time over vast tracts of country and makes the sky look as though covered with leaden gauze. Similar in name if not in nature is the “willy willy” with which Kalgoor- lie gold diggers are acquainted, to their cost. “Dust devils.” some people call them. Half a dozen may be seen danc- ing harmlessly along over the desert when suddenly one will dive into the city and till all the shop windows in IIannan street with dust and sand, blinding every passerhy. The “willy Willy" is a thief of the worst kind. It will steal the washing from a line or the roof from a shed. In some parts of the country wire ropes are aIu-hored over the roofs of huts to save them from the attacks of these odd little whirlwinds. Peru has hundreds of square miles along its coast of rainless country. In this tract rain is never known to fall from one century’s end to another. Yet the region is not entirely barren of veg- etation. Some parts of it, indeed, are comparatively fertile. This is due to the extraordinary fogs known as “ga- ruas.” They prevail every night from May to October after a summer that is sultry and extend up to a level of 1,200 feet above the sea. Above 1,200 feet rain falls. Most people have heard of the “follii” wind of Switzerland. that warm, dry gale which comes over the mountains and in spring will melt two feet of snow in a day. lts cause is most pc- culiar. 'l‘he “fohn” comes from the south. As it strikes the Alps it is wet, like most gales which have crossed the sea. but the south face of the moun- tains receives its rain, and as it crosses the summits it is dry. The moving air current is also compressed and there- fore dynamically heated. As it falls into the northern valleys in a cataract of air it gains heat at the rate of half a degree for every 100 feet of descent. It usually blows for two or three days. causing great suffering by its dry heat and oppression. While it lasts the tem- perature is about thirty degrees above the average. The “Chinook" of Brit- ish Columbia and the western side of the United States is very similar to the “fobn.” ‘ England has adopted the American word “blizzard" for a gale with snow. But the blizzard. however, must yield to the ferocious “buran” of the central steppes of Asia and the “purga” of northern Siberia. To be caught in gales such as these means death in a very few minutes. however warmly clad, for the very air becomes unbreathable, so filled is it with spikes of ice drift. no “Winiwau” That Spend- Itself Upon Tiem del Fnecoâ€"The “Fohn” Wind of Switserund and the Fe- rociou “first" of Siberia. In mountainous countries, such as Scotland, a fog usually forms at the top of a hill and works downward. The cold mountain top, cooling a warm current of wet air, renders its moisture visible, and this cold fog, being of low- er temperature than the air below and therefore heavier, drops gradually to the valley. Colorado, however, can show an exception to this general rule. There in winter the frost on the low ground is so intense that a fog often forms in the valleys and works slowly up the mountain side. This is known by the Indian name of “pogonip.” “Khamsin” is the hot wind from the desert which blows out of the Sahara upon Egypt. The word means fifty, from the idea that it lasts for fifty days. The “khamsin” is terribly hot and dry and sometimes brings pesti- lence with it. Red snow we have all heard of. it is caused by a microscopic infusorial growth and only occurs in snow that has lain unmelted for a long time. In Spltzbergen recently green snow has been noted tinted by similar organisms. “Gold dust” snow has often been seen, but only in spring. At one time it was a mystery how the surface of new fallen snow came to be strewn with a shining yellow deposit. Now it is known to be due, to the pollen of pine trees. FBEAKS OF WEATHER Chicken Pox and Smallpox. The eruption of chicken pox has an imperfect resemblance to that of small- pox, but can never be mistaken for it by the experienced eye. _In smallpox F038, WINDS AND moans OF VA- RIED PECULIARITIES. the eruption of papules first appears on the forehead, the “papules” always become “bladders.” and the latter al- ways develop into pustules-that is. sooner or later their contents get changed into pus.

Reading. - Were I to pray for a taste which should stand me in stead under every variety of circumstance and be a source of happiness and cheerfulness to me during life and a shleld against ills. however things might go amiss and the world frown npon me, it would be a taste for reading. “Rather." quoth the insurance agent who sometimes dabbled in verse. “I have written $400,000 worth of life In- surance within the last year." A Ghost Tout. When you think you see a ghost, how can you tell whether it really is a ghost or not? A recent writer gives the following scientific method: “We assume that a person sees an appari- tion. It may be. objectiveâ€"i. e.. having existence outside the observer’s mind-â€" or merely a creature of a disordered brain, subjective. The seer, while look- ing at the vision with both his eyes, gently depresses one eyeball with his forefinger from outside the top eyelid, so causing a squint. If objective. whether bogus or not, two outlines of the ‘ghost’ will be seen. but one, of course, if it be subjective. One may prove this by trial any time with any object, near or far. I mention this be- cause of the many nervous and brain wearicd people who see spooks and to whom it would be better that they should know that the trouble is with- in themselves and so seek a capable doctor than continue to be haunted, as they believe, by the supernatural.” Mistake In the Locality. That keen rivalry which western towns feel is probably responsible for the story about Seattle. which may well have been said of some other place at some other time. It concerns a Seattle man who died and went to the here- after. He Had. “Have you ever written anything,” said his cynical friend. “to make the world happier or better?" Fabric of Daily Life.

The Rocking of Lake Erie. . The 250 mile trough of Lake Erie iiel approximately in the direction of the west to southwest winds which prevail ‘ in that part of the country. Thus the lake offers an excellent opportunity for studying the effects of the wind upon a large body of incioscd water. and very interesting these effects some 5 times prove. Rhythmic gusts produce a rocking motion and great blows from the west or southwest sweep the liquid body of the lake eastward and someâ€" times eause a rise of eight feet or more at Buffalo in the course of a few hours.

Sargent. the famous portrait painter, studied in the atelier ot Carolus-Duran in Paris, his teacher showed his fondness for him by paint- ing in his head in the great ceiling at the Luxembougg palace. . Even after he branched out for himself his mas- ter often sent for him to come over to his studio and pose. his hands having especially won the admiration of Caro- lus-Duran. The time came. however, when Sargent couid no longer answer the heck and call of his teacher. for he was getting work of his own to do. which would not allow him to leaVe his studio at a moment's notice. One day, it is related, Carolus-Duran sent a hurâ€" ry call for him. and when he received a note saying that Sargent was compel- led to decline his request owing to pressing work he was furious. A few days later a friend. to whom he had confided his anger at his recalcitrant pupil. asked him: “Well. how is it with Sargent'.’ Have you made up? llow is he?” “Ah. no." said the painter. and he looked sad and his shoulders went up. “How is it with Sargent?
