TODAY’S INSTALLMENT. Sweetwater, who had been so violently wheeled about in entering that he stood with his back to the curtain concealing the car, answered without hesitation: "You have a device, entirely new so far as Lean Judge, by <rhich this car can leap at once into space, hold its own in any direction, and alight again upon any given spot w’ltbout shock to the machine or danger to the people controlling 4t." "Explain the device.” "I will draw it." "You can?" "As it see it." "As you see it!" "Yes. It's a brilliant idee I could never have conceived It.” "You believe —” "I know.” "Sit here. Det's see what you know Sweetwater sat down at the table the other pointed out, and, drawing forward a piece of paper, took up a pencil with an easy air. Brotherson approached and stood at his shoulder. He had taken up his pistol again, why he hardly knew, and as Sweetwater began his marks, his fin gers tightened on its butt till they turned white in the murky lamplight. “You see." came in easy tones from the stooping draughtsman, "I ha ve an im agination which only needs a slight fillip from a mind like yours to send it in the desired direction. I shall not draw an exact reproduction of your idea, but I think you will see that I understand it very well. How’s that for a start?" Brotherson looked and hastily drew back. He did not want the other to note his surprise. "But that is a portion you never saw.” he loudly declared. "No, but I saw this," returned Sweet water, working busily on some curves; "and these gave me. the fillip I mentioned. The rest came easily." Brotherson, in dread of his own anger, threw his pistol to the other end of the shed: "You knave! You thief!" he furiously cried. “How so?” asked Sweetwater smilingly, rising and looking him calmly In the face. "A thief is one who appropriates an other man’s goods, or, let us say, another man's ideas. I have appropriated nothing —yet. I've only shown you how easily I could do so. Mr. Brotherson. take me in as your assistant. I will be faithful to you, I swear It. 1 want to see that machine go up." SICK DAUGHTER NOW WELL Mrs. C.

She came very near hav ing nervous prostra- "For how many people have you drawn those lines?" thundered the inexorable voice. "For nobody; not for myself even This is the first time they have left their hid ing place in my brain." "Can you swear to that?" "I can, and will, if you require it But you ought to believe my word. sir. 1 am square as a die in all matters not con nected —well, not connected with my pro fession." he smiled, in a burst of that whimsical humor which not even the se riousness of the moment could quite sup press. ~“ “And what surety have T that you do not consider this very matter of mine as coming within the bounds you speak of?” “None But you must trust me that far." Brotherson surveyed him with an irony which conveyed a very different message to the detective than any he had intended. Then quickly: "To how many have you spoken, dilat ing upon this device, and publishing abroad my secret?" T have spoken to no one, not even to Mr. Gryce. That shows my honesty as nothing else can." "You have kept my secret intact?" "Entirely so, sir.” "So that no one. here or elsewhere, shares our knowledge of the new points in this mechanism?" "I say so. sir." "Then if I should kill you." came in fe rocious accents, "now here--" "You would be the only one to own that knowledge. But you won't kill me.” "Why?” "Need I go into reasons?" "Why, I say?" "Because your conscience is already too heavily laden to bear the burden of an other unprovoked crime." Brotherson, starting back, glared with open ferocity upon the man who dared to face him with such an accusation. "God! Why didn't I shoot you on en trance?" he criad. "Your courage is cer tainly colossal." A fine smile, without even the hint of humor now. touched the daring- de tective's lip. Brotherson's anger seamed to grow under it. and he k.uoiy repeated. “It’s more than colossal; it's abnormal and”—a moment's pause, then with an ironic emphasis—"and cfulte unnecessary, save as a matter of display, unless you think you need it to sustain you through the ordeal you are courting. You wish to help me finish and prepare for flight?” “I jsincerely do." "You consider yourself competent?" “I do." Brotherson’s eyes fell and he walked once to the extremity of the oval flooring and back. "Well, well grant that But that's not all that is necessary. My require ments demand a companion In my first flight. Will you go up in the car with me on Saturday night?" A quick affirmative was on Sweetwa ter's lips but the glimpse which he got of the speaker's face glowering upon him from the shadows into which Brotherson had withdrawn stopped its utterance, and the silence grew heavy. Though it may not have lasted long by the clock, the in stant of breathless contemplation of each other’s features across the intervening space was of incalculable moment to Sweetwater, and possibly to Brotherson. As drowning men are said to live over their whole history between their first plunge and final rise to light and air. so. through the mind of the detective., rushed the memories of his past and the fast fading glories of his future; and rebeling at the subtle peril he saw in that sar donic eye. he vociferated an impulsive: "No! I'll not " and paused, caught by a new and irresistible sensation. A breath of wind the first ho had felt I that night-had swept in through some I crevice in the curving wall, flapping the I canvas enveloping the great car It acted .like a peal to battle. After all. a man I must take some risks in his life, and his i heart was in this trial of a redoubtable I mechanism in which he had full faith.

I his eyes losing their threatening look, ; and his whole countenance suddenly aglow ■ with the enthusiasm of awakened genius. Coming from the shadows, he laid his hand on the cord regulating the rise and fall of the concealing curtain. "Here she is!" he cried, and drew the eord. The canvas shook, gathered itself into great folds and disappeared in the shad ows from Which he had Just stepped. The air ear stood revealed- a star tling, because wholly unique, vision Long did Sweetwater survey It, then turning with a beaming face upon the watchful inventor, he uttered a loud "Hur rah!” * Next moment, with everything forgot ten between them save the glories of this Invention, both dropped simultaneously to the floor and began that minute exam ination of the mechanism necessary to their mutual work His Great Hour.

Beyond Rule or Reason :: By Beatrice Fairfax “Love comes to some with smiling eyes, And comes with tears to some; For some Love sings, for some Love sighs. For some Love’s lips are dumb." —Pakenham Beatty. WHO is wise enough to give rule or-reason whereby the writer of this letter may tell if her lover really loves her'.’ "I am a young girl of pineteen, and in love with a man seven years my senior. Now. this gentleman has told me ite loVes me and no one else, as he has had only one girl before he met me and she is. dead. My conscience, how ever. will not allow’ me to believe what he says is true, as he sees me only’ a few hours on Saturday afternoons, and tells me that the'rest of his time Is oc cupied. How van I find out the truth, whether he means what he says in tell ing me he lov.-s me. as he distinctly 'ells me so?" Fac ts and figures may be relied on in every other problem, but love is beyond the most precise calculations of the most skilled mathematician. This man sees his beloved only once a '.cet-. At such a time he explains he can not see her oftener. But lie devotes the tim? lie is witlt iter to telling her he lows her. it takes very little for love to feed on. In the days they are apart his love lives on memory of the last meeting, and lives again in anticipation of the next. He loved before. The girl died. He has been honest enough to tell his second love all about it. There are men who would deny they ever loved before ihete are others, who lacking respect so. a romance that is ended, would •'■peak slightingly of it. 1 was younger then." such a man : ay’s. “I did not know my own mind." O F such a man, beware; but the man !:o comas honestly with th- story of a past romance on his lips, who confesses that the girl to whom ho comes is the second girl he lias loved, merits respect. At least, he does not deserve the HE TURNED AGAIN. ’ Naturalh. they were married, for she ordered hint about in a most im perious way. The longest lane has its turning, however, and one day, after a particularly violent outbreak on the part of the lady, the husband attempt ed to reduce the woman’s rights in his own household. "Do you think you rule the uni verse'?" he inquired sarcastically, when the moment came for him to edge in a word. “No,” came the prompt reply. "I do not. But I rule the first letter of it!" And once again the -mere man real ized that he was indeed the under dog. ' i I Maw “SpeaUer" writes: “I am troubled with » tic cling senfiation after speaking, which is ar coin pah led with a slight cough and hoarseness, (’an I get relief?” Answer: You will not only be relieved, hut you will be cured by using the follow ing: Ask your druggist f«»r a 2> 2 -ounce bottle of essence mentho laxene.

Thev can he bought at onv drug doubt with which this girl meets every avowal of his affection. That he sees her only once a week does not in the least weaken his love. That sttange sentiment has away of growing when fed on absence. Often, the skeptics say, it attains a more rapid growth than when one is constantly with the object of one’s affections. If business keeps him from her, it Is to his credit that he finds his interests there. If she suspects it is some other woman, then that suspicion is founded solely on Jealousy, and can not be taken into serious consideration. There is no way to find if he really’ loves het. That she doubts him, gives him reason for suspecting that she cares nothing for him. There is no scale, no measuring cup or string, no geometrical rule, for find ing out Just the sentiment she has in spired. Why not have a little faith and be lieve him'.’ If she finds she can’t have that, it is better never to see him again. Little doubts, during a courtship, have away of growing into tormenting ones after marriage. ■’•v — r ——T g Try This Home-Made s {] Cough Remedy Q Coats I-ittle, Bnt Does the Work U L — Quickly, or Mosey Refunded. n I Mix one pint of granulated sugar with % pint «f warm water, and stir for 2 minutes.
