shot of.' J
He laid the key in her hand, out
stretched to him.
The glance ihe woman cast at him was
full of hatred, and Levasseur was con
scious of it. At that moment only fear,
the greatest force her nature knew, held
her back from denouncing him.
"If It were not for one thing.’ site
said, beneath, her breath, "if it were not
for my child I would be glad to let you
tell the truth Even now—l wonder if
it Is too late" My husband loves me
Love is strong and forgives much. He
might forgive my poor silence my piti
ful deception." •
"Possible, but improbable." he sneered.
"5 our Anthony is not of so uncommon a
type Then would he be wrong If he
turned you out of doors? Think of your
lies and deceit the maiden soul with
which he fell In love! .Oh. come. In com
mon fairness, isn't it a little more than a
mere deception?"
Goaded On.
There was something so absolutely
fiendish tn the man’s manner that it
goaded Edith Barrington to madness.
She ilHered an angry cry and made a
quick step toward him.
The man caught her outstretched hand
In his.
"Don’t be such a confounded fool." he
said, in a hissing whisper Trust a'
woman for giving herself away’ There’s
some one at the door'"
Mrs Barringinn's madness fell from
her like a cloak She turned a strained
face toward the door, her hands still
resting unconsciously in lasvassettr s
grasp.
Some one. was trying the handle of th?
door. Impatiently.
"Sa > yea" ’’ whispered Levasseur.
The handle rattled again "Edith, are
you in there" What on earth’s the mat
ter with ihe door" It's stuck."
H was Anthony Barrington s voice, with
a curiously eager note Anthony Bar
'rington's voice, eager and irritated at
the unexpected, opposition.
Levasseur almost pushed the woman
toward the door ;
" Open it.” he said. "and for heaven’s
sake, keep your head! I'll hide In the
bed rootn ’-
Husband and Wife.
At the door Mrs Barrington glanced
i back, her hand on the knob. Levasseur,
j from the communicating door, waved an
; imperative command for haste, and be

I Lnthony Barrington himself spoke with
| impatient surprise.
With a little Incoherent prayer In her
heart. Edith opened the door and con
fronted her husband. Terror-stricken as
she was., she could yet find room for art
angry thought for Betty. That the girt
i had managed things so badly as to let
Anthony come up to hammer at her locked
door!
"My dear, dear Tony, what on earth
ja re ou .making such a fuss about?" she
■ demanded.
“And why on earth did .you lock your
door against me" I never knew you to
.do such a thing before." cried Rarrlng
ton.
He had pushed past her into the room,
iiis head lowered; his eyes, wold and
st range-looking, stared, not at her. but
around the boudoir, taking in every de
-la-U us its emptiness, and fixed them-
-CTves on that communicating door that
stood a little ajar.
"What are you looking for?" she asked.
He came close to her
"Why did you lock your door- lock it

i "Anthony!" She flung out her hands
' with a little bewildered gesture. "What

IN A FORMER article some pictures
were exhibited of the wonderful
creatures of the deep sea—animals
whose progenitors apparently sought
the gloom of the ocean's bottom in
preference to remaining in the blighter
world of shallow water above.
We saw hosy many of these animals,
in order to find their way about in the
sunless depths that surround therm
have developed phosphorescent organs
which enable them to provide a Ight
of their own, while, others, as if aban
doning the use of eyes altogether,
have gradually lost the organs of vis
ion possessed by their relatives above.
We also saw that these, deep-sea ani
mals. living where there is no sunlight
to bring out the effects of color, are
generally black and destitute of the
brilliant markings possessed by crea
tures which revel in the sunlight.
Today we show pictures of animals’
which inhabit parts of the sea bed
which do not He so deep that some
-unshine can not penetrate there, and
which, in contrast with the inhabitants
of the great abysses, are so brilliantly
adorned with colors that naturalists in
describing them have to compare them
with the most glorious- gems, such as
rubies emeralds and sapphires. They
exceed the most beautiful flowers in
splendor, because their bodies are fre
quently composed of more or less
translucent flight-penetrable> tissue--,
which often seem to be self-luminous.
This gives a vivacity to their colors
which only polished and highly refrac
tive jewels possess.
Among these are the jelly fishes. th- 1
• orals, and the sea-anemones —“mm-
one' meaning a wind flower. But no
flower has so much liveliness of color
s these animals exhibit. Yet when
o.>e same animals are taken out of
■ water they lose nearly all their
'tilliance.
Even animals that by their forms are
: < pulsive. when taken out of their ele
ment. such as sea-spiders, spider-crabs
hermit-crabs, etar-fishes. and sea
urchins, are very beautiful when seen
in the water. They stalk about there,
like strange knights clothed in shin
ing. damascened armor Some seem to
be decorated w ith burning jewels. The

sea-anemones are inexpressibly beau
tiful Yet among these splendid crea
tures are found some which are not
only without beauty of color, but so
shapeless that they look rather like
hits of rock or stone than living ani
mals. Some, too seem to conceal such
beauty as they possess from al! outer
view The outside of tha oyster is
rugged and repulsive, but within the
shell, when exposed to light, some
times exhibits a marvellous play of
prismatic color.
Some species of oysters secrete, for
ever concealed inside the shell, the moat
splendid pearls, which, when taken out
and exposed to the sunlight or lamp
light. reveal indescribable beauty. It
seems strange l hat objects whose
beauty depends entirely upon the play
of light should never show that beauty
except when they are accidentally
brought out of their natural surround
ings.
Much of the splendor of the life of
the sea as It is usually beheld from

Anty Drudge Tells How to Avoid
Scalding Children.
Ethel— "Oh, mama! Harold put his hand into the boiling
water in the waehtab and scalded it j»et awfuUy. ”
Anty Drudg «—"hwt as I told you. Boiling clothes is
dangerone as well as wasteful. If you would use
Feta-Naptha in cool or lukewarm water, you’d save
time, money and hard work and there wouldn’t be
any danger of the ehildren getting scalded. ”
Hot weather is bad enough without a
hot fire and steaming suds in washing
clothes.
There is a better way.
Fels-Naptha soap will cleanse your
clothes in cool or lukewarm water, without
boiling or hard rubbing, in summer or
winter.
It will do the work in less than half
the time and make your clothes sweeter,
cleaner and whiter. •
And the clothes will wear longer.
Think of it!
Why should any woman risk her health
and shorten her life by wearing herself out
with hard work, and subject herself to dis
comfort in boiling clothes and rubbing
them through hot suds?
Follow easy directions on the red and
green wrapper.
