‘trying to get the key. CHAPTER XiI.—(Continued). “Dear mother,’ ’said Helen, forcing a smile to her pale face, and encour- aged to presence of mind by a rasping sound on the handing laths. “I did not wish to wake you!” “Oh! she did not wish to wake me!” repeated Martha, cold with terror; for she alone knew how near she had teen to plunging her knife into the poor girl's side. “Oh, she did not wisn to wake me!” muttered Martha, again, and sinking into a chair. “Oh, my heart! how near I was to— Ugh! I thought it was Neil Bashfort, trying to lay bare my breast for his knife!’ “Dear mother,” said Helen, now ris- ing, “I did not wish to wake you. I wanted the key.” “Ah—the key!” said Martha, thrust- ing her hard into her bosom. “Yes; I saw you put it there. And I want to go out and take a walk on London bridge. Dear Clarence is,there, waiting for me; but I am sorry I wak- ed you. I am thirsty, too. Will you give me some—justa little wine from this bottle? And drink some yourself déar mother. How pale you are, and how you tremble! This wine has a de- licious smeil. I wonder if a little will make me sleep?” “No wonder I look pale and trem- ble,” thought Martha, drawing her sleeve over her face and shuddering. “What! in an instant more, and if my hand had found the hoft of my knife an instant sooner, she would now be dead—killed by me! I see how it is— she got up in her delirium and was Poor thing! What would have become of her if she had gotten out! Wine, did you say, my dear child? Why, yes, after the start you gave me, I am sure it will ad me good.” “This for me, and that for you, dear mother,” said Helen, pouring for her- self very little, and for Martha a great deal—indeed, quite filling a large glass. “And I will sip mine in bed,” continued Helen, turning her back to Martha, and pretending to drink. “There—it was so pleasant that I had to finish it.” And as she spoke she turned and placed the empty glass upon the table. Martha was in the act of drinking as Helen replaced the glass, and she swallowed all that Helen had so deft- ly persuaded her to drink. “Now, back to bed, my dear daugh- ter,’ said Martha, coaxingly. “You must not get up to look for the key again. Let me help you back to bed.” And as Martha spoke, she placed the key crosswise in her mouth, holding it there with her teeth, and tried to rise. She could not. Every muscle suddenly and in an instant became lax and limp, except those of the jaw. The strange invention—or, more properly, compound—of the sorcerer which Clarence had given to Helen had a remarkable effect upon those who were brought under its power. It relaxed and made helpless all the joints and muscles of the body except those of the face and head, which lat- ter became as rigid as those of a suf- ferer from lockjaw. At first Clarence, trom his position, did not perceive that Martha had placed the door key between her teeth, for her head had fallen forward upon her breast and her back was toward the opening in the ceiling. “Qh, how terrible she looks!” ex- claimed Helen, clasping her hands and recoiling a pace in dismay from the distorted face, though the eyes were closed. A rasping on the lath reassured her. She knew that her lover’s signal meant: “Wait! Silence!” Helen obeyed, but could not bear to gaze at the motionless form in the chair. At last Clarence whispered from the opening: “you may take the key now. She is doubtless wholly unconscious ow, and will remain so for hours. The sor- cerer’s drug affects the body all at once, but leaves the brain conscious for several minutes after the body be- comes utterly helpless. But lose no time. She can neither see, hear, think mor feel now. Secure the key, dear Helen.” “The key is in her mouth.” “tm her mouth!” exclaimed Clar ence, in a tone so loud that’ Helen de- tected vexation if not consternation in its accents. “Yes; between her teeth. She placed it there just before she tried to rise,” said Helen, approaching the un- conscious woman cautiously. “an!” sighed Clarence, and the sigh was very much like a groan. “why, I cannot draw it from be- tween her teeth!” said Helen, after a vain attempt to do so. She has lost some teeth from both jaws. The shank of the key rests where these teeth were, and the other teeth are ground together. I cannot move the teen without breaking her jaws,” said Clarence. “Itis a peculiarity of Sosia’s viliainous invention. Ah, you need not attempt it,’ be added, as Helen tried again, and as he spoke, Martha,fell forward from the hitherto ‘maintained equilibrium of her body, jand lay prostrate upon the floor. Clarence was now able to see ex- The Sorcerer of St. By PROF. WILLIAM H. PECK. Giles actly the position of, the key in Mar- tha’s mouth. “You cannot escape by the door now,” he said. “Place the table here, as you had it just now, and the chair, and give me your hand. It will not matter how much noise the lathing may make.” Helen obeyed, and her right hand was soon in that of her lover. “Now place your feet upon the cross- bars of the window grating, and aid me all you can, else I may strain your arm and shoulder badly. Wait a mo- ment,” he added, and then with his left hand he wrenched off such of the hanging and protruding laths as he feared might injure her in passing through the ragged opening. “Now, then.” And Helen seconded his efforts so well that in a few moments she was panting upon his breast, as they both stood erect upon the floor of the room above her late prison. “Dear Clarence!” “Dear Helen!” And their lips met fn a long and fond kiss of undying and devoted love. CHAPTER Xill. The Sorcerer Watches the Lovers. But the lovers did not long tarry to exchange kisses and tender embraces. “We must immediately seek a place of secure concealment,” whispered Clarence, while yet the lips of Helen were pressed to his own. “Yes: let us fly from this dreadful house “J dare not yet attempt to leave it,” replied Clarence. “T know not what fiends or power'to detain us this Lord Genlis may have at Kilronen or Kil- leany—to one of which places I must go to obtain a poat by means of which we may escape from Aranmore Island. But I know a secure place, the exist- ence of which these people do not even suspect—and there we will now hasten. But have you courage to wait here one moment?” “Alone?” “Only till I return into that room to obtain a few articles we may need. We must have light, for one thing—” “Yes, yes, I will wait; put be quick!” “As quick as light itself!” replied Clarence. And as he spoke he * descended through the opening rapidly; climbed down to the floor of the room below, and finding a small basket, proceeded to place in it a lighted lamp and a few other articles which he surmised | might be of use to Helen and himself. Martha, as unconscious as the floor she lay upon, ‘was motionless, save that she breathed heavily. Meanwhile the sorcerer had, to a great degree, had his eyes and ears upon the movements of Clarence Dar- rell, from the moment when the young man watched the secorid departure of the Osreds to their beds to the mo- ment when Clarence left Helen. It was too dark within the shadows of the great house for even Sosia to closely follow the young man’s various movements, though the sorcerer had: the remarkable power of being able to see much more in gloom and dark- ness than most men; nor were his ears, keen as they were, keen enough to hear all that had been whispered by the lovers when they conversed. Still, Sosia had seen and heard enough to inform him of much that had happened in Helen’s prison; yet he had not heard all. a While Clarence was speaking through the opening to Helen below, the sorcerer, at a distance in the cor- ridor that led to that room on the floor of which Clarence was prostrate, was able to make out the young man’s posi- tion because of the rays of light which streamed up through the opening. Sosia also saw Clarence draw Helen up through the opening and heard their kisses and whisperings of love as they embraced. He saw Clarence descend into the room, and knew that Helen was left alone, He was greatly tempted to glide for- ward, seize and gag her, and lift her in his arms, all in the same fraction of an instant—a feat he felt himself per- fectly able to perform, becausé of his wonderful strength and activity, and of his power to make her insensible in a moment. He knew he could do all this and bear her away to the secret cell ere Clarence could ascend from the room below; but he also knew that Clarence would recognize the fact that no man could achieve such a feat at this time except Zeno Sosia; . and thereby would Clarence not only sus- pect, but know, that Zeno Sosia was. alive. “Patience!” thought the vindictive and self-confident sorcerer. “I could seize and bear her away now; but then he would know that I am alive. Let him have his way for a time. I will play with him as the angler toys with the fish that nibbles at a hook— after a time his heart shall be at my mercy, as a mouse is at the mercy of the claws that toss it about under th fangs that are to devour it.” # Clarence was not below longer than a few minutes. 3 to the center of the handle, and the other end of the cord between his teeth, quickly rejoined Helen in the room above, and slowly drew the bas- ket up, so that the flame of the lamp in it shouold not be extinguished. As the basket cdme up above the level of the floor, Sosia glided swiftly to a place where the rays of the lamp flame would not reach him. “I know very well where he means to hide,” thought the wily sorcerer; but he cannot escape thence with her without again bringing her through this house.” | “Have no fear, dear Helen, and yet tread as softly as you can,” whispered Clarence, as she clung tremblingly to his arm. “I am sure that the three men are all at Dun Aengus, and that they are sound asleep, and that there is no dauger of the woman hearing anything; yet it is best to be as cau- tious as if they were seeking us. He who was most to be feared—that wretch, Zeno Sosia—is dead.” _ The lovers were passing through the corridor as Clarence whispered these words, and their meaning reached the ears of the sorcerer, as he crouched in the darkness. The pair passed on, and, traversing many a long corridor and hall, ar- rived at last to that room where Clar- ence Darrell was first introduced to the reader. “See, in this door and wall, dear Helen, are two bullets which the ruf- fian Bashfort fired at me a few hours ago. Fortunately he thought I was a ghost and his aim was bad. Hold the jamp a moment.” Then kneeling, Clarence pried open, with the blads of a hatchet which Bashfort had omitted to remove from Helen’s prison and which Clarence had prudently placed in the basket, that trap door by which he had ascended from the spiral stone stairway below. “Oh, what a dreadful pit!” whis- pered Helen, as he lifted the thick trap door. “Must we go down?” “Yes; but it is not so dreadful as you imagine,’ replied Clarence, smil- ing. “You see steps? By them we go down spirally for some distance, and then come to an iron door. That opens into a narrow passage which leads into what i think was once used as a dun- geon, centuries ago, no doubt. Come!” “Ah! And must we stop in that dun- geon?” asked Helen, shuddering. “No; but you shall see—that is, dear Helen, if you are not afraid to trust in me,” said Clarence, reproachfully. “Afraid to trust in thee, my dar- ling!” said Helen, even more reproach- fuly, and saying no more she began the descent of the stone stairs. She carried the lamp, but Clarence took it from her-after he had entered the stairway and had gently let down the heavy trap door to its place. “Let me go in advance, dear Helen,” he said, “for the stairs are step and winding.” They spoke no more until they found themselves in that dungeon of which Clarence had spoken. It was a room about twenty feet square in area,though from its floor to its top—for its roof or ceiling was the natural rock—the distance was not so great. Nature had done more in forming and shaping it than had the hand of man. Yet it was plain that the hand of man had done much to make this natural recess a terrible dungeon. In its solid walls were deeply sunk great bolts of iron, to which hung frag- ments of chains, so rust-eaten thar their former size and strength could only be conjectured. The floor, damp and black, was of solid rock, rugged and uneven in many places. Immediately beneath one of the great rusty bolts in the walls were the blackened relics of what had once been a man, who had doubtless per- ished while chained to that bolt—per- ished in armor, too, for the ribs and some of the bones showed ghastly through rusted and parted corselet and greaves, (To Be Continued.) MOTHS LIKE PRUNES. A Possible Substitute for Camphor Balls in Winter Clothing. “TJ have made a discovery, or at least I think it is a discovery,” said the house wife. “Moths like prunes.” “IT have mentioned that fact to many persons since I found it was true and they have scoffed at me, all but my grocer. He tells me that he discovered some time ago that moths have a. great foudness for prunes. “I have noticed for some time an occasional moth flying .around my kitchen and I have wondered where they came from. I remembered a few days ago that I had placed a package of prunes on an upper shelf in the kitchen closet and I went looking for it. it. “Now this was a pound package of prunes and the package was sealed. I noticed several little holes near the top of the package, and as I eut the top open, what was my surprise to find it full of moths. “If moths like prunes so much I rather think that some day prunes may take the place of cahphor balls when it comes time to pack away the winter clothing.” All to Herself. One morning Mr. W.’s coachman was very late in’ getting to work, and on being questioned for an explanation of his tardiness he said: “To tell you de truth, boss, I dun got mah’ied dis mahnin’, and dat’s huccome it I got late.” “Well, Jim,” ‘his employer said, “where ig your wife, and why are you not off on your honeymoon?” “Lord, boss,” said, Jim, “she’s dun gone off on de honeymoon; she hab all de money.”—Lippincott’s. ‘ ~~ , ¢ Kinds of ingredients used in making the three different varieties of baking powders on the market, viz:—(1) Min- eral-Acid or Alum, (2) Bone-Acid or Phosphate, and (3) Cream:of Tartar made from grapes. It is important, from the standpoint of health, to know something about these ingredi- ents, and which kind is used in your baking powder. (1) Mineral-Acid, or Alum, is made from a kind of clay. This is mixed with diluted oil of vitriol and from this solution a product is obtained which is alum. Alum is cheap; costs about two cents a pound, and baking powder made with this Mineral-Acid sells from 10 to 25c. a pound. bi (2) Bone-Acid, or Phosphate, is the basis of phosphate baking powders and the process is fully described in the paténts issued to a large manufac- turer of a phosphate powder. The U. S. Patent Office Report gives a full and exact description, but the follow- ing extract is enough: “Burned bones, after being ground, are put into freshly diluted oil of vit- riol and with continual stirring and in the following proportion,” ete. From this Bone-Acid phosphate bak- ing powders are made; such powders sell from 20 to 30 cents a pound, (3) Cream of Tartar exists in all ripe grapes, and flows with the juice ‘from the press in the manufacture of wine. After the wine is drawn off the tartar is scraped from the cask, boil- ed with water, and crystals of Cream of Tartar, white and very pure, sepa- rate and are collected. It differs in no respect from the form in which it originally existed in the grape. Cream of Tartar, then, while the most expen- sive, is the only ingredient that should be used in a baking powder to act upon the soda, as its wholesome- ness is beyond question. Cream of Tartar baking powders sell at about 40 to 50 cents a pound. Such are the facts, and every one, careful of the health of the family, should remember this rule:—Baking powders selling from 10 to 25 cents a pound are made of Mineral-Acids; those selling from 20 to 30 cents of Bone-Acid; and those from 40 to 50 cents of Cream of Tartar made from grapes. SMUGGLING BY AUTOMOBILE. Automobiles are being used to smug- gle goods across the frontiers of Eu- rope. The trick is becoming more common as the popularity of the mo- tor cars increases on the continent. The adaptability of the motor car to the purposes of the land smuggler has tempted many to “run gauntlet” with all kinds of dutiable goods, and now that a few cases have come to light the customs official’ are devoting un- usual attention to those folks who show a preference for traveling in their cars under cover of darkness. On the French frontier recently sus- picions were aroused by the frequent night excursions over the Berlin side by a particular motor car. An am- buscade was laid, and as a challenge only resulted in the speed of the car being increased, obstacles were placed in its way. The occupants of the car decamped, and when the vehicle was searched $275 worth of Moravian to- bacco was seized. Both the car and its contents were confiscated.—Brook- lyn Eagle. SIMPLE WALL DECORATIONS. New Material and New Ideas for the Decoration of Homes. The styles of home decorations have completely changed in the last few years, and it is pleasant to say that they have changed for the better. Time was when we hung monstrous patterns printed on paper against our walls, and considered them more or less pleasantly. lt would hardly be fair to say that we considered them beau- tiful or artistic. But they were the vogue and were put on. The time has come when, with our better meth- ods for interior decoration, better ef- fects can be secured. . In wall coverings, whether they be of paint, or of kalsomine, or of Ala- bastine—whatever the material used to cover the wall—the thing desired is that which has the greatest covering power, as well as permanency and beauty of color, Alabastine, a wall covering ground from Alabaster rock —which means a hard white rock—is the ideal covering for a wall. The most beautiful wall decorations in the world are those which are laid on with the brush. The mural designs in our large public buildings, and the frescoed designs in the large cathe- drals and churches, have a perma- nency and an art of which wall paper is but a cheap imitation. These mural schemes and frescoed designs can be brought within the reach of the every day home. They can be done with Alabastine, which is permanent in its coloring. It does not rub off, and it has the soft effect of pastelle. A great many people defer the re- decorating of their rooms not only because of the expense but because of the discomfort of it. With Alabas- tine there need be no discomfort and there can be no muss, for all that is needed is to lay a sheet or canvas on the floor, have your man come in with a pail, make the solution and simply brush it on the wall. That is all there is to it, and the room is perfectly clean and thoroughly renovated. Discretion. Pat had been in the service of a militia officer for a number of years, and was on terms of such intimacy with the soldier that he dared to be witty at his master’s expense. The officer one day was discussing the possibility of war with his coach- man, and after casting some reflec- tions upon the courage of his retainer he asked: : “Pat, what would you do in case a war did break out?” Pat thought a moment. “Sure,” he said, “Oi think Oi'd shtay et home wid yer honor.” The state may seil 100,000 acres, of land next fall. Pete Paulson was found dead in a gravel pit near Grove City. The Delano Commercial club has appointed committees and is preparing for an elaborate celebration of the Fourth of July. ‘ District court was opened at Jack- son by Judge J. H. Quinn. As the last term was adjourned on account of the judge being sick, there are many cases to be tried. Andrew C. Trow, a territorial pio- neer, died at his home in Glenville vil- lage, aged 72 years. He was the father of A. C. Trow, the farmers’ in- stitute conductor. Iver Davidson, the giant who tray- eled for many years with Barnum, died at his home in Roscoe, Goodhue county, aged 46 years. He was seven feet two inches tall. Albert Neville, a brakeman on the Great Northern railroad, was caught between two cars and suffered injur- ies that proved fatal at Ada. He was a resident of East Grand Forks. The heavy rain caused an immense landslide on the Northern Pacific a short distance east of Fergus Falls. The train from the east is stalled and passengers walked into town. John J. Hewitt, who was employed at runing a shaft at the Stevenson mine near Two Harbors, was killed by falling down the shaft ,a distance of more than 100 feet. He was 40 years of age and unmarried.

Kay and Ira Knapp are named as incorperators. The Simonds estate lands, consist- ing of 1,690 acres, lying west of Two Harbors, have been purchased at a tax sale by Thomas Owens for $5,500. The land will be cut up into small tracts and placed on the market. The Winona city council has di- rected the metering of the water service in the entire business section, and meters will be installed at an early date. If it proves a success it is intended ultimately to extend it all over the city. John A. Hartigan, professor at St. Thoma;’ college, St. Paul, has been ap- pointed actuary of the state insurance department at « salary .of $2,000 a year, to succeed D. C. Lightbourne, deputy insurance commissioner under Elmer H. Dearth. At a meeting of the executive com- mittee and the township vice presi- dents of the Old Soldiers’ society of Pipestone county, progress was made in the arrangement sfor the annual reunion to be held on July 3, on the court house grounds. Joseph De Met,.an Italian laborer 35 years old, employed at the stripping works at the Hull mine, near Two Harbors, was instantly killed. He was working in front of a steam shov- el, and getting under the bucket as it was being lowered was crushed. Rose Ettinger, formerly of Chicago, was convicted in the district court at Duluth of grand larceny. The woman was charged with having robbed rooms in the Acme kotel on Lake avenue, Duluth, and was indicted by the grand jury on two counts. She says she is a cigarmaker by trade. Rey. George Stanley, who has serv- ed as a supply of the Rushford and Fremont Presbyterian churches for a year, was duly installed as pastor, Rey. Mr. Homn of Utica conducting the services.

A state convention of the American Socety of Equity will be held in Roch- ester on Wednesday, June 7. The con- vention is called to discuss the barley situation and take the necessary steps to carry out the plans of the associa- tion with reference to this particular crop. Every. local union in the state is expected to send delegates, and all members of the society are invited to attend and take part. The board of viewers made their re- port upon the first proposed public drainage ditch in Redwood county. The proposed ditch. will drain a vast amount of iand in Willow Lake town- ship. The application was made to the commissioners for the drainage over nine months ago, and now the viewers report that if constructed the ditch will drain iand valued at $37,000 and that it will cost a little more than $25,000 to construct the system. The many land owners along the line are in favor of carrying out the prayer of the petitioners, but there are several bwners who would have to pay heavily for the proposed ditch are opposed to it, and it is extremely doubtful whether the board will approve of the viewrs’ report. The Parsons building, a double- store, two-story brick structure occu- pied by P. E. Roise & Co, as a dry goods store with a $26,000 stock was destroyed by fire at Marshall.

The two brothers had been apart for years, but now Jack had returned form the west, and he lit a cigar and eyed his brother sheepishly. “You know I always was a quixotic sort of a chap,” he said, tentatively; “but can you guess why I came home this year? “Well, old chap, we're all glad enough to see you; but I can’t say I know your reason for coming home.” The other drew a photograph from his pocket. “You remember you sent me this group about five years ago?” “Well, said the brother, “what about at?" “This. You see this girl in the front row? Well, as soon as I saw her photo I fell in love with her. Man, she’s per- fect! Her face has been before me in all my wanderings, and I determined that I would make a fortune and then come home and lay at her feet. Yes, I know it was an odd fancy to take, but I’m like that; and now that I’ve made the money I’ve come to you to know Who she is and where I can find her.” “My dear old fellow,” said Fred, kindly, “don’t take it to heart but——” “She’s married?” “No, it’s not that; but that is a photograph of young Tom Robinson. He’s a member of an amateur dramatic club, and when that was taken he was filling a gap by taking a girl’s part.” GREAT CHANGE. From Change In Food. The brain depends much more on the stomach than we are apt to sup- pose until we take thought in the mat- ter. Feed the stomach on proper food easy to digest and containing the proper amount of phosphates and the healthy brain will respond to all de mands. A notable housewife in Buf- falo writes: “The doctor diagnosed my trouble as a ‘nervous affection of the stom- ach.’ I was actually so nervous that I could not sit still for five minutes to read the newspaper, and to attend to my household duties was simply impossible. I doctored ail the time with remedies, put medicine did no good. “My physician put me on all sorts of diet, and I tried many kinds of cereal foods, but none of them agreed with me. I was almost discouraged, and when I tried Grape-Nuts I did so with many misgivings—I had no faith that it would succeed where every- thing else had failed. “But it did succeed, and you don’t know how glad I am that I tried it. I feel iike a new person, I have gain- ed in weight and I don’t have that terrible burning sensation in my stom- ach any more. I feel so strong again that I am surprised at myself. The street noises that used to irritate me so, I never notice now, and my mind is so clear that my household duties are a real pleasure.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. There’s a reason. Now why was this great change made in this woman? The stomach and the brain had not been supplied with the right kind of food to reWuild and strengthen the nerve centers in these organs. It is absolute folly to try to do this with medicine. There is but one sure way and that is to quit the old food that has failed and take on Grape-Nuts food which is more than half digested in the process of manufacture and is rich in the phosphate of potash con- tained in the natural grain, which unites with albumen and water—the only three substances that will make up the soft gray filling in the thou sands of delicate nerve centers in the brain and body. Grape-Nuts food is a sure road back to health in all such cases. !
