With the full return to consciousness I be- vame aware of a soft sound, like deep, regular breathing, a strange, elusive sound, seeming at one minute behind me and the next to come from the center of the room. Completely baf- fled in my efforts to locate it, I began to think I was the victim of some prac- tical joke, or else sufiering from an unusual attack of indigestion, De- ciding that the latter was not prob- able, 1 went back to bed, determined to finish my rest; but even with an effort to 'drown the sound by burying my head in the sheets, 1 could still hear times low and soft, and Iy labored and right over the bed, as my fev 1 imacination clothed it in various impos:ible shapes, “L cannot t 11 bow long T lay nery- ously wakeful, bion 1 suddenly saw a ft ray of window frameo, and the fw rof a bird a tree outsi! wow ap- praised me of the oy and with other welcome indieations of approaching merning I lost the sound and my fear of It and drifted into a heavy sleep, “The next day 1 decided to say nothing about my experience, as it might bring ridicule upon me, and 1 passed a pleasant day with the deci- sion firmly rooted of banishing the whole affair from my mind.

It seemed to be com- ing In gasps—like the last labored breath of life—it seemed close at my back. I made one leap toward the door—the gasping sounded in my ears. With a spasmodic grip I turned the handle and slipped into the wide hall. Myra's room was down the corridor, and I flew toward it, but had gone but a short distance when a hand gripped my shoulder, and I fell in an un- conscious heap—at Myra's feet. “When I came to I was on her bed and she was bathing my face with a refreshing lotion. I remember mur- muring, ‘What was it? and then I sank, partly from exhaustion, partly from a sweet sense of security, into a sound sleep, from which I did not awaken until morning.” Miss Myrtle ceased speaking, and for a few moments there was an in- tense siience. At last the girls asked in chorus: “Aren’t you going to tell us what it was?” “Oh,” said Miss Myrtle, and a little | smile crinkled the corners of her mouth, and an amused twinkle shone |° in her brown eyes. There was another short silence, and then she said: “Have you ever heard of a water motor?” She laughed softly. “I never had then, but I decided that even it I bad been brought up in a ecity, there were a few things yet to be learned.” Death of Youthful Japanese Emperor. According to a Spanish writer on Japan, the most pathetic suicide re- corded in the history of that country took place over eight centuries ago. “In 1181,” writes Senor Gomez Caril- lo, “the nine-year-old Emperor Ko- tuku saw his troops defeated. The child disheveled his hair, wept copi- ously, and invoked the holy name of Buddha. When he had finished his nurse Niidono took him in her arms to the seashore. ‘There is a lovely city beneath the bay,’ she said, and then the waves covered the emperor and his nurse.” Expensive. “How often is your motor over hauled, Binks?” asked Dusenberry. “Four times last month,” said Binks. “Four times in one month? Geeru- salem! what for?" demanded Dusen- berry. “Speeding,” sald Binks. “Twice by the bicycle cops, once by a deputy sheriff, and once by a plain, commoa garden, village constable."—Judge. the regular movements, scme- ' n seeming- ' \ of dawn, | previous | here to be shod mext time.
