OMOLA mla," said tho blind scholar, "thou wilt reach tho needful volumes thou Unmvcst them on the fifth shelf of tho cabinet." Tito rose at the snme moment with Homola, saying, "I will reach them, if you will point them out," nnd fol lowed her hastily Into the adjoining small room. "There they are," said Homola, pointing upward; "every book Is just where It was when my father ceased to see them." Tito stood by her without hastening to reach the books. "I hope," she continued, turning her e.yes full on Tito, with a look of grave confidence "I hopo he will not weary you; this work makes him so happy?" "And mo too, Itomola If you only let mo say, I love you If you will only think mo worth loving a little." Ills speech was the softest murmur, nnd the dark beautiful face, nearer to hers than It had ever been before, was looking at her with beseeching tenderness. "1 do love you," murmured Itomola ; sho looked at him with tho same slm plo majesty as even, but her voice had never la her Hfo before sunk to that murmur. It seemed to them both that thoy were looking at each other a long while before her lip1 moved again; yet It was but a moment till she said, "I know now what It Is to bo happy." Tho faces just met, nnd the dark curls mingled for an instant with the rippling gold. Quick as lightning after that, Tito set his foot on a projecting ledgo of the book shelves nnd reached down tho needful volumes. They were both contented to bo silent and sep arate, for that first blissful experience of mutual consciousness was all the moro exquisite for being unperturbed by lmmedlato sensation. It had all been ns rapid a tho Ir reversible mingling of waters, for even tho eager and Jealous Ilardo had not becomo impatient. Whey they told her father, ho wanted time for reflection. "Ho patient my children; you are very young." "No moro could be said, and Uo mola's heart was perfectly satisfied. Not so Tito's. If tho subtle mlxturo of good and evil prepares suffering for human truth and purity, there Is also suffering prepared for tho wrongdoer by tho Biuno mingled conditions. As Tito kltsed Homola on their parting that evening tho very strength of the thrill that moved his whole being at tho senso that this woman, whoso beauty It was hardly possible to think of as anything but tho necessary con sequence of her noble nature, loved him with all the tenderness that spoko In her clear eyes, brought a strong reaction of regret that he had not kept himself free from that first deceit which had dragged him Into the dan ger of being disgraced heforo her. There was a spring of bitterness min gled with that fountain of sweets." George Kllot's magnllljcent study of character concerns Itself with Flor ence at tho tlmo when Christopher Columbus was discovering America, when Savonarola was prior of Saint Murk's and ruled tho city by bin moral energy and his fanaticism, when his pious frenzies, his visions, and his predictions of heavenly wrath seemed to tho majority of his fellow citizens as coming from a moro than mortal source; when Charles tho Klghth of Franco Invaded Italy; when t!m plague brought dlro dismay; when the city was distraught by tho btruggles of the austere devotees of Savonarola and tho gay partisans of pleasure; when tho mighty ones of tho land woro united against poor distracted Flor ence; when IMoro do' Medici was con spiring to regain tho power once hold by Lorenzo the Magnificent; when fin ally Florence turned against Savon arola, and ho met his death In Ignominy or martyrdom, as ono viewed It as foe or partisan. Across tho sceuo there flit the figures of Pico della Mlrnndola, of Fra Hartolommeo, of Douienlco Oldrlandajo, of Cosslmo dl Piero, of Pollzlano, of Heruardo del Nero, of Strozzls and Tornabuonls, of Nlccolo Machlavclll, of a "promising M-WM youth named Michelangelo Huonnrot ti" nnd many others. All these make the setting for tho lives of n woman and a man and tbo progress of their souls, the ono upward and the other downward, as wonderfully drawn ns ever human lives were portrayed by pen of man or woman. Florence saw Tito Molcmn ever making his way upward from the day when he found himself adrift nftcr shipwreck, and was carried to the market, by the omnipresent BrattI merchnnt and huckster, and introduced to brenkfast and a kiss from pretty little Tessa, and passed under the deft linnd of tho wondor-worklng barber philosopher Nello. That shrewd crafts man with edged tools razor or tongue Introduced him to the bright and powerful folk who frequented his shop ns If It were a club, and brought him to the notice of the blind scholar Har do, who needed Just such a clever young Student ns Tito for n helper. From that his path was easy to tho confldenco of the great; Latin secre tary to the state, embassies to Home, everything was his, even to tho envy of Nlccolo Machiavelll. The world saw only the dazzling success; there were a few who marked "the change that came from the final departure of moral youthfulness," who saw the, perfidies and desertions of the dextrous and fac ile Greek, the baseness that smiles and triumphs ; who knew how he hnd left to slavery the adoptive father who had rescued him and made him what he was, how he proved false to the memory of Homola's father, who set him on his way to triumph In Flor ence, how he betrayed his great pat rons, how ho deceived poor Tessa, that "sweet, pouting, Innocent, round thing," how he threw away the great treasure of Homola's love, and how his only bitter thought was that a timely, well devised falsehood might have saved him from every fatal con sequence. Over ngalnst the figure of the man sho married stands Homola, "fair ns tho Florentine Illy before it got quar relsome and turned red," ns the rhap sodic Nello described her. Her con tempt of all Injustice and meanness, the noble serenity with which she ac cepted, though not without Inward struggle, all that life and duty brought her, the willing service she rendered her father, her husband, the poor, tho sufferers In the plague, Tito's aban doned father, even Tessa, her rival to the title of wife, the mother of Tito's children, the majestic self-possession which nt the slightest touch on the fibres of affection or pity, could be come passionate with tenderness all this justified her godfather, Hernnrdo del Nero In his exhortation to her fa ther, "Kciuembor, Ilardo, thou hast a raro gem of thy own; take care no man gets It who Is not likely to pay a worthy price. That pretty Greek has a lithe sleekness about him that seems marvellously fitted for slipping easily Into any nest ho fixes his eyes upon." Hut he that smiles and triumphs does not nlways triumph to tho end. lie Is sonietlmos found out. So It was with Tito. He had made the last preparation for departure to a larger Held of action. Pursued In the night by a crowd of angry men, he barely had time to leap from a bridge Into tho Arno. A long swim in tho dnrk ness in tho tumult of his blood ho could only feel vaguely that he was safe and might land. Hut where? Tho current was having Its way with him ; ho hardly knew where ho was; ex haustion was bringing on tho dreamy state that precedes unconsciousness. Hut now there were eyes that dis cerned him aged, strong for the dis tance. Haldassare his father look ing up blankly from' the search to which his poverty had led him, had seen a white object coming nlong tho stream could that be any fortunato chnnco for him?, lie looked and looked till tho object gathered form; then ho leaned forward with a start as ho sat among the rank green stems, and his eyes seemed to be filled with a new light yet he only watched motion less. Something was being brought to him. Tho next Instant a man's body wns cast violently on the grass two yards from him, and ho started forward llko a panther, clutching the velvet tunle as ho fell forward on the body and Hashed a look In the man's face. Dead was he dead? The eyes were rigid. Hut no, It could not be Justice had brought him. Men looked tlead sometimes, and yet the life came back to them. Haldassare did not feel fee ble In that moment. Ho knew Just what ho could do. lie got his largo lingers within tho neck of the tunic and held them there, kneeling on ono knee besldo tho body and watching tho face. In his eyes Uicro was only fierceness. Hlgtd rigid still. Those eyes with the half-fallen lids were locked against vengeance. Could It be that he was tlead? Surely at last tho eyelids wero quivering; the eyes were no longer rigid. There was a vibrating light In them they opened wide. "Ah, yes I You seo iul you know niol" Tito know him; but ho did not know whether It was life or death that had brought him into the pres ence of his Injured father. It might bo death and death might mean this chill gloom with tho face of tho hid eous past hanging over him forever. Hut Haldassare's only dread was, lest the young limbs should escape him. Ho pressed his knuckles against thu round throat and knelt upon tho chest with all tho force of his aged frame. Let death como now I Copyright, 1313, by tho Vat Publishing Co. (Thu HoJton PoaO.

It Is proverbially a slow business getting a good grass lawn In a gar den, but a new English Idea makes It possible to secure a line stretch of verdure Just as one would buy a car pet at the stores. Grass seed Is sown thickly on strong canvas and, when 1 this Is thickly covered with growth It is reauy ior matting me iiiwh. The site Is well prepared, being made perfectly level, and special at tention Is given to getting the soil so that It Is a favorable rooting medium for the little plants. Then the grass mats arc put down on sections, these being closely fitted together. As time goes on the roots push down through the canvas and, In this way, establish a permanent lawn. Ultimately tho material will rot. Tho value of this lies In the fact that an Immediate ef fect can bo secured. It Is quite easy to have a splendid grass lawn in sltuntlon where, a few hours before there was nothing of the kind. Thenceforward the grass will go on improving nnd the little plants speed ily take a hold on the soil. Scientific American. Trees Beyond Valuation. Ten million dollars' damage annu ally Is done to the shade trees and hardy shrubs of the country by shade tree Insects, according to estimates made by the bureau of entomology. United States Department of Agricul ture. It Is very dllllcult to estimate tho money value of tho shado trees and shrubs of the country, but n very con servative estimate would place their value at ? 1,000,000,000. These figures were reached after extensive corre spondence with tho forestry and other authorities of states and municipali ties. A more deflnlto census Is aimed at, but the figures are taken ns de pendable for general purposes. They aro based on tho value of trees to cities, parks and private property, and have ao reference to the bnre Intrin sic value of wood or lumber. An old oak tree which, becnuso of Its condi tion Is not worth $'J for lumber, may add ?.r00 to the value of the city lor on which It Is located. City Has Right Idea.
