She Admired
Bravery
By F. A. MITCHEL
It was In tlio lute autumn. Kdltli
and 1 were walking In tho woods kick
ing up tho dead loaves, for tlicro were
only a few left on tlio treeH. Wo were
both young, I twenty-two, Edith eight
eon. I was sweet on Edith, nnd when
a man of that age la sweet on a girl
tho first idea that enters his head W
that she can only love a herole per
sonage who combines every manly at
tribute. When a man of forty gets
sweet on a woman he fears that bIio
won't consider that he has money
enough to make It worth her while to
marry him.
While Edith and J were walking
along to the pleasant sound of the
-kicked leaves I was thinking about
"bow many virtues 1 must possess to
win her. It was In wartime, and 1
naturally supposed that military glory
would count for n good deal.
"We're getting quite a number of
Instances of bravery from this war In
Europe." 1 remarked.
"Yes." she replied, "tboy'ro splendid
Just think of n young earl not yet
thirty years old. with tho life of a no
blonian beforo him, giving his life for
his country."
"Would you llko to bo tho widow of
ouch a man?"
"I would grlovo for him, but 1 would
glory In having had Buch a husband."
This was not encouraging for me, a
man of peace. It was some tlmo bo
foro 1 tried to find out nny moro of
thoso traits I did not possess, tbo ab
sence of which would lnduco Edith to
turn mo down.
"I read an account some tlmo ago,"
I said, "of a Belgian soldier who was
placed in front of a company of Ger
mans who were attacking his country
men. Seeing him, tho Holgians low
ered their rifles. 'ITlrcr bo cried. Ii"or
heaven's sake, Urol A volley Bwept
tho Dolglan and tho Germans away to
gether." "What a noblo sacrlflcol" exclaimed
Edith fervently.
"Do you suppose," I said, "that If
you had been that Belgian's wlfo and
a witness of tho sccno nnd his country
men bad looked to you to npprovo his
order to tiro you could bavo mado tho
sacrifice yourself?"
This was n poser. Edith mado no
reply for quite awhile; then she said
that she would havo preferred to com
promise by having them tiro on her. I
was not disposed to let her out In this
way and persisted In having n direct
answer, whereupon sho said that she
was afraid tho test would bo too much
for her. She might bo nblo to inako
tho sacrifice and sho might not. Of
ono thing she wns certain. Iler heart
would bo burled with that noblo Del
glan. It was apparent to mo that to win
Edith I must do something heroic.
"Do you know," I said, "I havo con
cluded that this war is n strugglo be
tween reaction and progress. I con
sider it the duty of America to Join in
It on tho sldo of progress."
"So do I." was tho prompt reply.
"What is true of a nation is truo of
ono of its individual citizens."
"What do you mean?"
That it Is my duty to tight for tho
world's progress. I'm going abroad to
enlist"
Edith looked grave.
"Don't you think it my duty?"
i "No; I don't"
"Why not? Haven't you agreed with
me that it Is our duty as a nation to
fight on tho sldo of progress, nnd what
Is tlio duty of n nation is tho duty of
its individual citizens?"
"Yes; I supposo so. But I think it
would bo very foolish for you to go
all tho way over thero to to get your
cclf shot"
I looked down sldowiso at Edith.
Tho idea of my making myself food
for powder evidently troubled her.
"I Ball next week."
Thero was no comment on this for
awhile. Presently Edith asked mo in
n faltering volco why I had said noth
ing of this beforo. I was somo tlmo
framlug my answer. When it camo I
Bpoko In n choked volco:
"Bccauso I dread a parting."
"With whom?" Sho kept her eyes
bent on tho ground.
"You," I faltered.
I went on to tell her that I loved her,
and sho confessed that my lovo was
returned.
"now hard for U3 to part," I said.
"on tho ovo of our betrothal!"
"Wo will not part," buo said firmly.
"My duty calls."
"What duty?"
"To progress, civilization, tho causo
jf freedom."
"Lot It call."
"I might havo an opportunity to dlo
ono of thoso noblo deaths wo havo been
talking about"
"You'll do no Buch thing. You'll stay
at homo."
"But think how proud yon will bo of
your soldier lover."
"I don't want n Boldler lover."
"Must I go unsupported by tho
knowledgo that you nro willing to sac
rifice" "You'll not go nt all."
Wo wero sitting on n low horizontal
limb of n tree. Edith throw her arms
around mo to hold mo from going to
fight for an idea which I had no Idea
of fighting for. 1 gavo In at last and
consented to remain at home.

WITNESS TO
THE DEED
By M. QUAD
(Copyright, 19H, by tho McCluro
Newspaper Syndicate.
My mistress in (Jalusboro road had
lost a 5 note In the house, and the
thief was tho parlor maid. 1 knew It
from her actions, and three months
nfter I left the bouse sho was caught
in a similar offense and owned up to
tho first theft Uowever, tho crime
wns laid on me, and because 1 made
Indlgnnnt and perhnps impudent pro
test I was flung out of tho house nt
half an hour's notice and refused a
character. I was Idle for tho next
three months. Tho first thing demand
ed when 1 nppllcd for a placo was a
character. As soon as It was learned
that I had nono It was useless to talk
further. It was for this reason that I
finally paid n fee to an Intelligence
office in Margate street and was at
length sent for to tako a placo at gen
eral housework. It was an old man
named Dyson who wanted me. Ho
was willing to take mo $vlthout a
character becauso he would havo to
pay less wages and because, ns ho
grimly asserted, thero was nothing ly
ing around looso in his houso for mo
to steal. As wo sat face to face I
sized him up as mean and penurious,
but I did not sco nny evil in him. Ho
bad an aged and infirm wlfo, ho told
me, nnd I would bo tho only servant
It 'was not for mo to pick nnd chooso.
I must have a place and hold it long
enough to get a character again. 1
went with him miles nnd miles out on
tho Elolborn road, and "wo at last ar
rived at the cheaply built and cheap
looking cottage ho occupied. It was a
placo devoid of almost all conveniences
and had been selected for its cheap
rent I found the old wlfo deaf, almost
blind and palsied, and It was apparent
that sho had no caro whatever.
I soon bad evidence that bo was in
lovo with n widow In the neighborhood,
or at least he desired to bo freo bo that
ho could marry her. My natural im
pulse on finding out how ho felt toward
his wlfo was to flee tho house, but I
havo explained how I wns situated.
In the course of a couplo of weeks
he declared that tho collar was full of
rats and gavo me money and command
ed mo to buy arsenic. Do recommend
ed too to go to a store miles away nnd
to say that I wanted it for my com
plexion nnd to glvo my own nnme. 1
went to a drug store only two blocks
nwny and gave bis name, and when he
discovered this he was highly indig
nant for n day. and I rather expected
to bo thrown out Ilowcvcr, in the
course of three or four days ho devel
oped another plan. After coaching the
old wlfo bo left mo nlono with her for
the first time, and sho begged rao to
get her some laudanum for tootbacho
and not to mention tbo matter to him.
It was easy to tell that sho had been
coached what to say. and I refused to
buy the drug. A few days later as 1
was preparing her n soup I had to Icavo
tho kitchen for n minute. When I re
turned tho soup was giving out n
strange odor, nnd being satisfied that
her husband had poisoned it I, of
course, throw it away, no scolded
about ray waste, but when 1 looked
him squarely In tbo eyes ho dropped his
and bad no more to say.
I had been with tho Dysons flvo years
when tho climax came. The old wo
man was holding her own If not get
ting better, and tho husband's impa
tlenco bad a savago edge to it Their
bedroom was on tho north side of the
house. All along on that side was n
deep excavation for n factory.
At 10 o'clock ono night 1 lay wonder
ing If ho really meant to tnko her life
and how he would finally accomplish
it when I beard a half suppressed
scream from his room. I got softly out
of bed and went to tho farther door,
and, looking through a crack, I saw
that the window was up and that ho
stood before It with his wlfo in his
arms. Sho was hanging on to hlra with
fingers of steel and making n great
struggle. I heard him breathing heav
lly nnd snnrllng nnd growling ns ho
tore her fingers loose, but I did not
know wbnt he planned to do till of a
sudden ho staggered to the open win
dow nnd llung her out Sho screamed
ns sho went to her death, and in ray
fright 1 echoed the scream. I remem.
bcr tho innn rush lug across tho room
at me, of bis dashing open tho door, of
his striking mo down, and then camo
darkness which lasted for weeks. lie
had struck me with u pleco of Iron nnd
fractured my skull. Ho then carried
my body downstairs and boro It a
quarter of a mllo away and Hung It
Into another excavation. Beforo tnk
ing rao from tho houso ho put on my
bat and cloak, and thus it appeared to
thoso who found ray unconscious body
next morning that I had been coming
home tho night beforo nnd fallen into
tho pit As to his wife, ho gavo tho
alarm and brought tho pollco and mado
out that It was a case of suicide. While
he waB fast asleep, as bo claimed, she
had Btolen to tho window nnd leaped
to her death.
Ills story went, and it was several
months before thero was any contra
diction. I had n fractured skull, brain
fever and pneumonia and for weeks
nnd wcokB lay ns ono dead. When I
mended my memory wns confused, nnd
it was seven months beforo I told my
story and put the pollco on tho track.
Long beforo that Dyson had married
tho widow and Balled for America,
and though efforts wero mado to find
him nothing camo of them. Never did
