CHAPTER IX roj-nrcTED.
Dr. Dubette was an Elder, havmr received
the Aaremc pnesthoo-i m the House of En
dowments at Salt Lake Cty. and at meet
ings often sought with fiwery and vehe
ment clauses to more deeply imbed the sa
cred doctrines of tithmg. polygamy, blood
atonement and special revelation m their
minds. He worked hard for the church and
had been -prospered": four wives and the
best property in the town, save the Bishop s.
heme the result, which was nvt so bad.

jealous of apjtasy than he. cz more alive

and four entrances, one to each wife's
anartments; m short the form of dwelling
usual with the prosperous Mormon. Some,
however, though this arrangement was
quite convenient for the husband, found it
scarcely permissible owinc to the unnatural
and heartbreaking condition at work, and
had smail houses m different quarters of
the town But mot often, for the- poor

Thus he rambled on. failing into a fit of
coughmz now and then, and sojn Trean
came mto the kitchen by the back door and
beran building a fire. A glance through
the door showed her the injured man lying
quietly v.tth eyes closed, but breathing hard,
and with a soft but anxious expression en

Elehard. with pain in his eyes, gave him a
searching look, then turned them on the ox

m the bim square face, and Elehard put out
his hand and whispered, hoarsely: "Get

you cam sir, the pressure suffocates me."

She glanced at an old clock on the mantle:

with silver and streiving their dripping

itself, a pjund and open furnace door into a
great cloud of fire, was heaving over
Gravs Head, and he turned and went oa.
When Elehard opened his eye a curtain
had been lowered that the rising hood of
light might not come m upon him. and
Trean was moving softly across the room
toward the kitchen For a moment he
turned hi eyes enquiringly about, then, re
membermg the time and place, a smile and
salutation came to las lips, but tne girl had
passed into the kitchen, and he lay awhile
looking out through the open door at the
sunshine yellowing along the canyon's side.

and he went to the kitchen door, while a
smile of amusement and gratitude crept
over Elehard :ace.
Trean!" but she had
not come m yet. and the
old man lit his
pipe and. with line ,ments grown benignant
from the mild intoxicant, talked on.
After a time the girl's footsteps could b? '
heard rnovms about the kitchen, and
presently she called her father quietly and
he tvent in to her. In a moment he came
back, bearinr a square kneadin aboard cov
ered with a white cloth, and upon which in
clean dishes rested a baked trout, baked
potatoes, staiming coffee, toast, a saucer of
fresh lettuce, a t-ny dish of yellow butter,
a tumbler of cream, and by the plate a
bunch of flowers. The injured man's eye
turned gratefully toward the kitchen door
when he looked at this.
Your daughter is very rood. he saii.
with something like a lump rising into lus
throat.
"Yes. few are more so. I hev an idee.
She ken fix t snack of vittles "at a'most

the kneadmg-board carefully on a chair by
the couch and helped Elehard to the food-

kitchen and ate his breakfast with Trean.

iaseed mountain gap in the west rolled
slowly out of the vlley. drawing its back-

and rest. But she had no heart for the
needle, and sat with her fine, strong head
setting sun that lit two tiny fires deep back
m the blue darkness of her eyes, or were
they sparks that her heart sent up! All day
her blood had stirred with a faint and sweet
delizht. and now. when she thought of the
grateful approving look in the stranger's
eves, the same soft uelicat seemed to
spread through all

being. For a mo
hfe. the shadow of
meat the poverty of
a dreadful future, and all her heaviness of
spirit, seemed to sink away from her. But
there below her m the valley were the

up. Let me thank you for your kindness
last night, and for the pleasure your com

doing wonders for me." flashing his
large eyes in her direction, with an admir
ing smile, -and I have really begun re
gretting already the necessity of getting
well, and losing so much that is pleasant.
"You must not hurry." stammered
Beam, while Trean's eyes were fixed upon
her work, with a tremor of almost invisi
ble color fleeting up through the shadow
film that saddened her face.
"Yes. the doctor, who was here this
noon, says I can not safely go on for two or
three weeks. h; answered. "I am afraid

eyes filled and he sat a long time looking
through the cpea door into the soft dark
ness with his pipe unlit in his crumpled
hand. Soon Trean arose and went droop

his body was tome away by the evil one.
Winifred, on the other hand, was so re-
iciced at the miracle wrought on
her behalf
that she took the vaiL and ultimately be- J
came abbes- of Gwythern. Denbighshire,
and died in the odor of sanctity. Sabse-
quentlv she was canonized by the reigning
Pope, and theSdof November was appointed
as the dav on which to commemorate her
virtues. The spring is undoubtedly one of
the finest in Wales, and will tnrow up
twenty-one tons of water per minute. It
never freezes, and is always the same in
quantity, whether in rain or drougut. Alt
TmntE is a popular notion that the paper J
wrappings of cigarettes do the nuscniai.
The paper perhaps does burn the mouth
The wrappers of some Turkish cigarettes
are impregnated with opium, and these, of
course, do harm: but that is not the fault of
the cigarette. The trouble with cigarettes
is that people wuLsmoke cigarettes at times
when they will not smoke cigars, and that
cigarettesmokers thus use more tobacco
than other people, and that cigarette smok
ers inhale tobacco, and take into the longs
air charged with nicotine.
