TEX IH EPISODE.
Kehr. must have had a military an.
castor- from whom he had Inherited a
talent for making defensive warfare aa
nasty a possible. From the outside hla
stockade urrouiKilng several acres of
ground presented no great obstacle to
an attack in force, it a as not aa high
aa It might lav been, nor as thick or
strong. The tops of the log of which it
had been built were not even pointed. It
did not seem to hav been pierced -srt'ch a
sufficiency of hole for rifles. Indeed
Mr.- Kehrs stcckade'was not so much a
' e!n as h temptation. Hla real de
fense began just Inside. For twenty feet
the ground was pitted like a sieve. In each
.pit a pointed stake had been planted.
upright. Within this ling of. mischance
were vicious, entanglements of barbed
wire. " , ' "
In Mr. Ktlirs plan of defense the
stockade Votilfl be surrendered1 '-fter ' a
mere show of resistance, the strikers
swarming over I he top would become en
tangled among the staked pits and the
barbed wire, like flies m a spider's web,
and then Kehr could make thom sorry
that they had ever been -born. He had
two machine guns placed an an eminence
from which they could sweep thai whole
inner rlntr of the stockade. Ho had plenty
of rifles, plenty of ammunition, and what
was more important he had plenty of
men who could :, be relied on to shoot
down their fellow men. .
If by any chance the. stockade and the
entanglemetita were -jarrledv the. aanall
ants would be confrlnted by an.. Inner
ntockade'. higher and stronger, built
around a spring and well . stocked with
Drovlaions.' But the attack. Kehr felt. If
It ever did come to a head, . would end
bloodily and Inrloriously In. the barbed
wire. Labor would have had a much
needed lesion, and whatever the oon
sequence? to himself, he would not have
lived In vain
Pour feet from the top of the main
stockade on the Inner side was a shelf
like walk, of heavy planks, from which
sentries could look out upon the world
belond, '
Celestia's first act of esptoretlon was
to. climb a ladder which gave access to
this narrow wsy and start along It. Al
most Inetantly the white apparition was
challenged by a sentry.
Celeatia gavs gave the pass word and
made the man tell her what hla hours
and duties were.
'Do you reslly mean," she aald, tliat
If you saw a1 man onl tnere ana imn
him his business, and got no answer.
that you would try to shoot him 7
"If I saw him In this light." said the
sentry, "he'd be ao clear that I wotildn t
have to try.. I couldn't miss htm.".
'And he - might bo a deaf man who
didn't hear your challenge. I don't think
you'd shoot him, would you? Wouldn't
you lust shoot hotnewhere ' near him to
frighten, hirer ., .... ..
She taked than man steadily In the face.'
"Wouldn't you?" '
"I've got no bueJnese talking to any
one, when I'm on duty." . '
"Wouldn't yonT'
The man made a snuffling noise.
"If I hear, you fire' said Celeatia, "I
shall khow that you didn't shoot to kill,
shan't I?" ' i
. The aentry, an elert young fellow to
begin with, seemed new to have fallen
Into a kind of trance.
"I guees." he said, "II do anything
you said, K you looked at me while you
said It."
Celestta amilod and passed on. She
made the whole tour of the stocked In
stilling .TiwciMl feelings into the heart
of each sentry that she met. At last, Jut
as the moon was rising and flooding the
world with light, ahe came back to the
first sentry. .It wss easy to ae that he
was glad she had coins back. He drew a
long breath and his eyes brightened.
"Why," she asked, "have almost all
the trees been cut duemT'
"Po'a we can see the strikers a long
way before they get te ue."
Then why bava they left that one big
grove, so near the stockade? They could
take shelter ia that, and If they had a
small cannon"
"But they haven't
"But they haven't."
"They ought to have, oughtn't they?
If It's te be a fair fight. But there won't
be any faint, will there? Ktlll you
haven't told me why all the trees have
been cut down except that one grove
seo. It's gnt a fine oM stone wall around
It. If I were the captain of the strikers
"It was left standing especial." said the
sentry, "by Mr- Kohl's orders. And he
knows why It's keen left, even If nobody
else doos - I'm dead certain of one Chine.
Anybody who thinks tie's safe in that
grove will be making 'a. great-, bla mls-taa-e",

'But why?-. A- bullet-can't go through
a stone wall or a bur tree."
' "D yra tmow -what West lsr - f '
"I think so."
'Well, suppose the strikers occupied

the grove Mew to pieces and fell on

air and felt on "em, and the earth they
stood on opened up snd sweJlowed em.

"Is that what It's for? 1 '
"1 don't know, ma'am. Tou aaked me
what it'a for, and I don't know. I'm only
telling you what It might be for. What
It would be for If I was old man Kehr."
"How would he make It all blow up?"

' "By electricity. He'd have a switoh

A cynical Krenohman has said, "The
woman whom we love I only rinngoroii,

to which a greater cynic added. "PortiiB

This was more
witty than true,
for every woman

rxpects to love

Man has a horror
of being loved with
a mercenary mo
tive. So great la
this horror today
that It amounta to
morbid expectancy.
Nine 'young men
out of ten speak of
a wife aa a posses
sion only to be pur
chased. But If a
man had never boen nlssanlly. women
would never have become mercenary. And
mercenary women are few.
Men are far more 'atereotoyped In mind
than wo-ucn. Therefore their Mra re
garding the grsnd passion are more uni
form. .
While almost every women likes a dra
matic element in a man's love for her,
the normal man haa a dread of the dra
matically disposed woman, especially In
the role of a wife. Tliln Is the reason 'w
find so ' many phlegmallo' women who
are wives. Intensity worries man un
less it Is kept well tinder check, snd the
tragic hs finds Insupportable In dally life.
- I,eas romantic than women by nature
and with less Idealism, yst Nnmewllre In
his heart every man hides a .dream of
that earthly trinity father mother and
child In which he Imagines himself the
chief element. i
Sooner or Inter, to greater, or lean de
gree, every man passes through the ro
mantic phase.
Unfortunately for women, lit Idea of a
sweetheart essentlslly different - from
hla requirements for a wife., " .
'The average young bachelor ia attracted
by the girl whom othera admire. He
like to carry off the belle of the season
before the eyea of rivals.' Ho Is amused
by her caprices, flattered by her Jealous
exactions, and grateful for ths leaM ex
pression of her regard for 'Mrs.? . He is
lavish with compliments snd pre; But
sentiment In man springs wholly from
unappeased appetite.' The coveted, but)
unpossessed woman can manifest .her lova
for him In almost anyr manner' and It
will be agreeable and pleasing.
- Whether ahe Is shy, shrinking coquet
tish or-playfuU-dsmonatrativs or reserved,
his, imagination will surround, .her , with
vary charm..:' A 51 nan's imagination is
the flower of his pakslons; When those
passions are calmed, the flower fades.
Once let Mm possess the obler t ef his de
sire,' and his Ideas become entirely
changed. He grows critical ' and dis
criminating and truly mason 1 1 no In hts
Ideas of how he wishes to -be loved. .
We all know the story of. the man who
compared his courtship to a mad race
after a railroad train,' and his married
life to a calm possession of a seat with
the morning paper at hand. He no longer
shouted and gesticulated, but hs enjoyed
what ho hsd won nons the less for that.
It was a very qulok-wltted husband
who thought of this little simile to ex
plain hts lack of sentiment, but there are
few wives who are aatlsfled to be consid
ered In this tight, for the soul of the
wife haa all ths romantic feelings which
the soul of ths sweetheart held.
A well timed compliment, a tender
caress given unasksd, would avert many
a co-respondent rase If huahands were
wiser.
At the same time many a woman Is
mourning over the loss of romance In
her wedded life, all tinronarlotia that the
fault Ilea In herself. A girl, noted for
her beauty. Was won by a wealthy suitor
who waa madly Infatuated with her
charms. For the first two year the
young husbsnd sent hi wife bouquets
and Jewels and other gifts on every an
niversary. After that the occasions were frequently
forgotten until before five year had
passed even the wedding day wa not re
membered. The husband became absorbed
in buslneaa and romance waa a sealed
chapter In his book of life.
The wife who stated these facts might
have read the explanation had ahe studied
her own face in the mirror, mill hand
some. It was cold as loe, with sever
lines about the mouth and eyes. A apollel
beauty, she Uvea with ths thought that
everything Is due her: thst ehe should
receive, not give. One who studies her,
can readily understand how quickly she
would exhaust the romantic reservoir In
a man's nature and fall to supply It wltn
new WAters of love and sentiment.
In ninety cases out of 10 the develop
ment of the romantic tendencies In the
masculine nature lie wholly with the
woman.
Supreme Beauty of Serenity
By BKATHJCS FAIRFAX.
Calmness Is the result nf lung and
patient effort In self-control, It Indicates
a right understanding of cause and effect
and cures all tendency to fuss and fume
and worry and grieve. As aoon aa you
have learned to be calm yon have at
tained the wonderful gift of poise and
your soul la on its way to steadfast
serenity. '
The calm soul haa learned how to
govern Itself end so oan adept itself to
others, rvople reverence and revere
those who are master of themselves. And
whether a msn remains tranquil and un
ruffled In emergency and acts with Judg
ment, or bs serene and calm In facing
the petty annoyancea of Ufa. he atlll
gains admiration for ths wise sanity that
prevents him from waatlng himself with
out elf-control or judgment.
It Is a sad question whether the most
of the unhappy people ws meet have not
ruined their own lives and marred and
defaced their happiness by nothing more
unavoidable than a lack of control. If
Fate and Circumstance twlated and
warped lives out of shape, at least there
would be- something awe-Inspiring and
magnificent about the tragedy. But
quick tempers, haatly spoken words; rssh
deeds. Irrevocably lead to moat of the
bitter changea that cut lives off from
happiness.
Humanity surges with uncontrolled
passion. Life Is tumultuous with ua
governed grief. Anxiety and doubt blow
ua all about and carry some of us upon
uncharted reef a. And It la all so un
necessary. To me that la the ultimate
bitterness of most tragedy it med never
