It cuts Ankotall to tho heart to hoar tho lad lying thus; ami such fruitless lies and delivered so haltingly, so lovingly! "Kyro left to-night by tho train," says Andy, with a highly nonou, miserable laugh. "Sho --wo - " 'I see," says Ankotoll. hurriodly. "Vou oaino to see 1 1 1 11 1 on?--very nat ural.1' "It's a long walk homo for Dtiloie," says lnr cou-lii, mum haltingly than ovor. "Hut If - ' "Of cour.-o I can glvo your cousin a neat," says Anketcll. Ilu addresses Iiliti-oir ontiroly to Mr. MoDorrnot. altogether ignoring Duleinea. This, and Honiething lu his toao strikes a chill to Andy's huart; but. ho compels himself to go tliroutrli with the sorry fnroo. As for lliiloinoa, a kind of cold recklessness has como to lier that docs duty for courage. Hor Into tears lio fro.i'ii lu hor eyes. Her viatica is fixed immovably on tho ground be noath hor; yet, in splto ol that, she knows that Anketcll lias novel ouco deigned to "lauco in lier direction. "Thank you," says Andy ilillldoiitly. "And -" pausing if, when you eamo to our back gala if you wore to nop nor uiupc, II would bo botttii i 111 your 1011 m'o. It the governor know that -or I- lint! kept her out fcolate, lie -he'd bu down on me. It's all my fault, d ye seo every In, of it." "I quite nee." says Ankotoll grave ly, laconically, as before, "Hy thu byo I can give you a seat, too." "No, thanks! I'd rather not--really. I hliall or.joy tho walk " Tho poor boy Is choking with shame, and feels that to accept oven so trilling a favor as a scat homo from tho man ho in trying so tlellbcratoly to deceivo would bo m oro than ho is otjual to. "Its u lovely evening, and nothing of a walk." Ho waves an mlieti, and turns aside; bul seeing him go, Duloinea wakes from lier stupor. "Atitly!" crios sho wildly, a fevorof entreaty in hor whole air; "Andy, corno with inc. Como!" lint ho is ilcaf to her entreaties. He shakes his head, and hurries out into tho darkness of the night beyoml. "I'll bet I'll bo homo before you!" ho calls out from somewhere they onn no longer seo him. "It's a mile to walk, but three to drive; that gives mo a good chance." It is three miles indued! -three of tho longest miles Duloinea has ever driven. . Tliero are moments when .she tolls herself that it cannot lake all tlioso hours to come tills short, short way, and wonders ifjAnkolell lias not Hiiido a mistake and turned into somu unknown road. It is si dark by this tltno that to see where sho Is is initios Bible. And yet it is a lino night, too no sign of rain or storm. Certainly tho moon is lying hidden, and tho stars are apparently forgetful of their duty: but tho wind that Hies past Dulcinea's oliook is singularly mild and kindly for tho time of year. l'vcrythlni' eeoius hushed; 110 sound arlsti- to broak tho monotony of tho silenco! that lias fallen on lier and her com panion. Now anil again a rustling in the waysido branches, a lluttorlng of wings, asloopy "Cheep-cheep." betray tho presence of those "iiiulo foule." ' "Tnal slopca alio night with open eye,'" according to (JeotTroy Chancer; but other noises are thoro none. Shame, fear, fatigue, are all keeping Dulclodiiinb. Oh, lobe home in lier own chamber, safe from prying eyes, s.ife in any place where alio may weep out her very soul in comfort. Oh, tins terrible, terrible drlvo! will it uover come to an en 'r1 And he- why is ho so silent? Can ho know? .she starts with 11 horsolf as this thought occurrs to her, but quickly iliugs it olT with one as grim. No, a thousand time-, no. If he know, lio would not be bore with hor now. lie would not entitle s oiul to sit beside hor; ho would cast hor olT. Oh. if he ever dous htrir of it - what then? lint if lie knows noth ing, why does ho not sav something to hr? Again tho Hist torlunii ; doubt sots in. Aa for Ankotoll, ho lias oven forgot ten bo is silent, so btiy nro bisi thoughts with all tho past miserable j hum.

No fear of It fading. And than tho agonized watching for tho train to 001110 in; tho horrible fascination that compelled him to wait and seo her gogo with that other' that was tho worst part of It. Ho had thought that at the last moment, tho vory last, as her foot uus on tho stop of the compartmont, lie would spring forward and draw her back, an) Im ploro her to return homo and marry hl9 rival later in a more orthodo'x form. Hut M10 had not given Jilm that op porlunlty. Ho had watched her im passioned uliungo of decision her ro- tuai to carry out tier design -tier vo hemctit relief when she saw her cous in.

Slowly up fiom behind the hill beyond she conies, shi'ddlng glory on' Un earth with each slow, trailing step. "How lilt" a iui'iu comes forth the lovely moan, I'Voin tho slew opening cartalut of the douds, W.illtiiic in liciuty to lit'rmiiltiinlit throuu " She gives Ankctell tho chance of see ing how his companion looic-c. Coltl, shivering, chilled to her heart's cure. Her protty ftico Is not only sad. but blue; hor iltllo hands, lying glovoltw. (what liad she tlono with her gloves?) on the rug, look slirutiUeii to oven suiailcr dimensions than Usual, ant! are trembling. A sharp pang eotitmuts Auketoll's tliro.it. "Vou tiro coltl!" says he, in a tone so icy that no wonder she shivors'afrosh. "No, no!" says sho hastily, through cluttering teeth. "Vou must bo"' savs lie angrily, "witli only that lilt 0" thin jacket on you. Hero!1' (pulliiigup wltli ileeitled violence a warm plaid from under the boat) "put this on you." "1 would rather 1 ol," said she, making an olTorl to repulse him. "Put it on directly!" says he, so fiercely tha' she gives in without another word. In twining it around her his hand comes in contact with hers. "Vour hands are like ice!" savs ho, hli voice ouco again breath ing fury. "What tie you mean by it? Was there no rug, that you slum tl thus be tly'ng of coltl?" "I dou't mind the coltl; I don't think of it," says she weur ly. "Then" think of it now! put your ha ml) under the rug Instantly!" His uiatinor is really almost unbear able; but Miss McUermot has got to such a low ebb that she has not to courage to resent It. Ho pulls up tho rug. "Cover tliem at once!" mivs ho. and she meekly obeys him. What does it matter?--It is all over between him and lier. It Is quite plain to lier that, 1 oven if ignorant of this evening's work, , he Mill detests lier. His tone, manner, ' entire air, convince her of that. Well, sho will givj him an opportunity of honorably getting rid of her. Sho will tell him of her intention of run nlng away with Kyro. That will do it! He is just tho sort of a man to stick to Ids wo tl through thl k anil thin, however hateful the tusk may be. I!i:t who 1 lio hears that she tlolibeVal ly meant to run away with some one olso? Oli, was it deliberate? She will toll him. but not now. To-morrow, perhaps. No (sternly) to-morrow, oortn'nly. Ho Is coming to tlino witli thorn, and after dinner, in the drawing room, she can then give lii'ii tho oppoiluuily of roloasiug hlaiself from this uiitortuunlo engagement.

Not noisily. 11 -t obtrusively it is, irdeed. a stifled, a desperately sillied sob, that betra.s. "I am afr.ii i you are iinhippy about somothing." sayi. he, utiro!ontiiiely. He is lrowning. Printing for that damned fellow, ho tells himself, and the thought does not throw oil upon tho waters, lie seems to pause for a reply, but 1:0110 coming ho goes on; "in rietaooui anything is ro iv. savs lio hardlv. 'Thorn Is a way out o inoit dillleultl's, i darn sv vou will find mio out of yours.''

An effective device for tho protection of liulldiiiss from tiros in atljacent structures lias been Hiieces.ifiilly tested in llostou. The idea worked out in thu apparatus is to maintain a sheet of water between the fire and the building to bo protected. This is done by plac ing on every open side of the huildliiK near tho top n line of perforated piping for carrying the water. The complete apparatus cotislts of a five-Inch stantl plpe, extending over the upper story. Prom it runs another pipe around tho sides and front, from two ami one-half to four laches lu diameter. On the front aro three rovolvlng sprinklers, and one is placed at each exposed side, In the center. The anna are of bronzo metal, slightly curved. At each end of llio arms is a hall nuzzle, such as 13 used by ilro department;! on regular hose linen. At the Huston test a tiro department steamer furnished the pow er, antl for ubout fifteen minutes poured through tho . rprlnkler a doll vet y of 1,000 gillonu a minute, completely drenching the walls, and keeping a continuous ahcot of water from top to bottom.
