Six and Five Point Stars.
The stars on the great seal and
the seal of the president of the Unit
ed States are five-pointed, while on
the sea of the house of representa
tives they are six-pointed. The 13
stars on the obverse of the present
half and quarter dollar are five-pointed.
The reverse of the present half
and quarter dollar is a copy of the
great seal, except that the clouds are
omitted. It is evident that heraldry
'has not taken a very strong hold in
these matters in the United States;
'therefore It Is not in the power of
any one to say without a doubt why
the difference in the stars on the flag
and the coins. So tar as is known,
'with the exception of the reverse of
the present half and quarter dollar
the stars on our coins are copied from
.the colonial coins, which were, no
doubt, made after the manner of Eng
lish heraldry, while the flag was made
up after the design of Washington's
coat-of-arms, containing three five
pointed stars.
Growth of Kindness.
The American people, in their need
ed work of reconstruction, are not
.losing their characteristic virtues of
kindliness and good-humor. A leader
in reform, in a private letter, writes
thus: "After all, human sympathy is
the foundation-stone of democracy. I
have imagined that our criticisms of
life were becoming kinder; I mean
the ordinary run of newspaper criti
cism; and kinder means broader.
Some of us. perhaps, went rather far
In the heat of attack; and I think
the increased kindliness, which leads
more surely to sympathy, is an excel
lent tendency. Lately it has seemed
to me that' we needed more than any
thing else in this country kindly ex
planations. If we could only under
stand one another, intolerance would
expire." All of which is true, declares
Collier's Weekly, and truly said, and
charity is a friend and not an enemy
to reform.
Soon after King Edward of England
decorated Prince Henry of the Neth
erlands for his gallantry in rescuing
passengers from the wrecked steam
ship of the Hook of Holland, in Feb
ruary. Queen Wilhelmina presented
gold medals of the Order of Orange
Nassau to the three sea-captains who
assisted in the rescue, and silver
medals to the members of the boat
crews who risked their own lives in
the work.
Lord Curxon. when he was a stu

a brilliant degree and won the grand

on the other hand, took no honors,
was rusticated, and didn't even get
an ordinary degree.

THE DELUGE
B4VHCmUHAM
CHAPTER XXIV-d?MitiiHMd. .
As the Albatross steamed Into the
little harbor, I saw Mowbray Lang
don's Indolence at anchorl I glanced
toward Steuben Point where his
cousins, the Vivians, lived and
thought I recognized his launch at
their pier. We saluted the Indolence;
the Indolence sainted us. My launch
was piped away aad took me ashore.
I strolled along the path that wound
round the base of the hill toward the
kennels. At the crossing of the path
down from the house, I paused and
lingered on the glimpse of one of the
corner towers of the great showy
palace. I was muttering something
I listened to myself. It was: "Mul
holland, Mrs. Mulholland and the four
little Mulhollands." And I felt like
laughing aloud, such a Joke was it
that I should be envying a policeman
his potato patch and his fat wife and
his four brats, and that he should be
in a position to pity me.
You may be imagining that through
all, Anita had been dominating my
mind. That is the way it is in the
romances; but not in life. No doubt
there are men who brood upon the
impossible, and moon and maunder
away their lives over the grave of a
dead love; no doubt there are people
who will say that because I did not
shoot Langdon or her, or myself, or
fly to a desert or pose in the crowded
places of the world as the last scene
of a tragedy, I therefore cared little
about her. I offer them this sugges
tion: A man strong enough to give
a love worth a woman's while is
strong enough to live on without her
when be finds he may not live with
her.
As I stood there that summer day,
looking toward the crest of the hill,
at the mocking mausoleum of my dead
dream, I realized what the incessant
battle of the street had meant to me.
There is peace for me only in the
storm." said I. "But thank God. there
is peace for me somewhere."
Through the foliage I had glimpses
of some one coming slowly down the
zigzag path. Presently, at one of the
turnings half-way up the hill, appeared
Mowbray Langdon. "What is he do
ing here," thought I. scarcely able to
believe my eyes. "Here of all places ! "
And then I forgpt the strangeness of
his being at Dawn Hill in the strange
ness of his expression. For It was ap
parent even at the distance which
separated us, that he was suffering
from some great and recent blow. He
looked old and haggard; he walked
like' a man who neither knows nor
cares where he is going.
He had not seen me. and my im
pulse was to avoid him by continuing
on toward the kennels. I had no es
pecial feeling against him; I had not
lost Anita because she cared for him
or he for her, but because she did not
care for me simply that to meet
would be awkward, disagreeable for
us both. At the slight noise of my
movement to go on, he halted, glanced
round eagerly, as if he hoped the
sound had been made by some one he
wished to see. His glance fell on me.
He stopped short was for an instant
disconcerted; then his face lighted up
with devilish Joy. "You!" he cried.
"Just the man!" And he descended
more rapidly.
At first I could make nothing of this
remark. But as he drew nearer and
nearer, and his ugly mood became
more apparent I felt that he was look
ing forward to provoking me into giv
ing him a distraction from whatever
was tormenting him. I waited. A few
minutes and we were face to face, I
outwardly calm, but my anger slowly
lighting up as he deliberately applied
to it the torch of his insolent eyes. He
was wearing 'his old familiar air of
cynical assurance. Evidently.' with
his recovered fortune, he had recov
ered his conviction of his great su
periority to the rest of the human
race the child had climbed back on
the chair that made it tall and had
forgotten its tumble. And I was won
dering again that I, so short a time
before, had been crude enough to be
fascinated and fooled by those tawdry
posings and pretenses. For the man,
as I now saw him, was obviously shal
low and vain, a slave to those poor
"man-of-the-world" passions ostenta
tion and cynicism and skill at vices old
as mankind and tedious as a tread
mill, the commonplace routine of the
idle and foolish and purposeless. A
clever, handsome fellow, but the more
pitiful that he was by nature above
the uses to which he prostituted him
self. He fought hard to keep his eyes stead
ily on mine; but they would waver and
shift Not however, before I had
found deep down in them the begin
nings of fear. "You see, you were
mistaken," said I. Ton have nothing
to say to me or I to you."
He knew I had looked straight to the
bottom of his real self, and had seen
the coward that is in every man who
has been bred to appearances only.
Up rose his vanity, the coward's sub
stitute for courage.
, "You think I am afraid of your he
sneered, bluffing and blustering like
the school bully.
"I don't in the least care whether
you are or not" replied I. "What are
you doing here, anyhow?"
It was as if I had thrown off the
cover of a furnace. "I came to net the
woman I love," he cried. "Yon store
her from me! You tricked me! But
by God. Blacklock, I'll never pause un
til I get her back aad punish yon!"
He war brave enough now, drank with
the fumes from his brave words. "All
my life." he raged arrogantly on, Tve
had whatever I wanted. I've let noth
ing interfere nothing and nobody.
Tve been too forbearing with you
first, because I knew she could never
VmHP&frraf'TSE'CasZUr
gxBBizzz canaamo
care for you, and, then, because I
rather admired your pluck and impu
dence. I like to see fellows kick their
way up among 'us from the common
people."
I put my hand on his shoulder. No
doubt the fiend that rose within me, as
from the dead, looked at him from my
eyes. He has great physical strength,
but 'he winced under that weight and
grip, and across his face flitted the
terror that must come to any man at
first sense of being in the angry clutch
of one stronger than he. I slowly re
leased him I had tested and realized
my physical superiority; to use it
would be cheap and cowardly.
' "You can't provoke me to descend to
your level," said If' with the easy phil
osophy of him who clearly has the bet
ter of the argument
He was shaking from head to foot
not wUb terror, but with impotent
rage. How much we owe to accident!
The mere accident of my physical su
periority had put him at hopeless dis
advantage; had made him feel inferior
to me as no victory of mental or
moral superiority could possibly have
done. And I myself felt a greater con
tempt for him than the discovery of
Ills treachery and his shallowness had
together inspired.
"I shan't Indulge In flapdoodle," I,
HOW
THAT HORRIBLE
LOOKING AT HER.
FEAR
AT HIM,
went on. "I'll be frank. A year ago,
if any man had faced me with a claim
upon a woman who was married to me,
I'd probably have dealt with' him as
your vanity and 'what you call 'honor'
would force you to try4to deal with a
similar situation. But I live to learn,
and I'm fortunately, not afraid to fol
low a new light There is the vanity
of s&called honor; there is also the
demand of Justice of fair play. As I
have told her, so I now tell you she
is free to go. But I shall say one thing
to you that I did not say to her. If
you do not deal fairly with her, I shall
see to to it that there are ten thorns
to every rose in that bed of roses on
which you lie. You are contemptible
in many ways perhaps that's why
women like' you. But there must be
some good in you, or possibilities of
good, or you. could not have won and
kept her love." , i v
He was staring at me with a dazed
expression. I rather expected him to
show some of that amused contempt
with which men of his sort always
receive a new idea that is beyond the
range of their narrow, conventional
minds. For I did not expect him to
understand why I was not only will
ing, but even eager, to relinquish a
woman whom I could hold only by
asserting a property right In. 'her.
And I do not think he did under
stand me, though his manner changed.

She was almost panting. "L feared

"As yoa see, he Is quite Intact"
said I. '? must ask that you and he

rapidly along the path toward the
kennels.
An exclamation from Langdon
forced me to turn In spite of myself.
He was half-kneeling, was holding her
in his arms. At that sight the sav
age in me shook himself free. I
dashed toward them with I knew not
what curses bursting from me. Lang
don, Intent tfpon her, did not realize
until I sent him reeling backward to
the earth and snatched her up. Her
white face, her closed eyes, her limp
form made my fury instantly collapse.
In my confusion I thought that she
was dead. I laid her gently on the
grass and supported her head, so
small, so gloriously crowned, the face
so still and sweet and, white, like the
stainless entrance to a stainless
shrine. How that horrible fear
changed my whole way of looking at
her, at him, at her and him, at every
thing! Her eyelids were quivering her
eyes were opening her boeomv was

There she recognized me. "Oh,"
CHANGED MY WHOLE WAY OF
AT EVERYTHING!"
she said, and gave a great sigh of
relief. She leaned against a tree and
looked at Langdon. "You are still
here? Then tell him."
Langdon gazed sullenly at the
ground. "I can't," he answered. "I
don't believe it Besides he has
given you to me. Let us go. Let
me take you to the Vivians." He

Lively Time
Broke Loose on Shipboard and for
Two Days Had a Circus.
An exciting story of a baboon's
escape from its cage on the Union
Castle liner Comrie Castle was told
when the vessel reached Plymouth,
England, on the way to London with
a large collection of wild animals on
board, including five wolves and eight
zebras, the property of Heir Wind
horn. Herr Windhorn, who for 30. years
has collected wild animals which he
sells to dealers and zoological gar
dents, said the baboon stood four feet
six 'inches in height and was very
wild. About a week after leaving
Cape Town it broke out of its cage,
but fortunately the escape was dis
covered before the animal reached the
deck. For two days, however, it wa3
at liberty in the hold, showing fight
whenever it was approached.
An effort to snare the baboon by
the cargo nets was found impractica
ble on account of, the 15-foot leaps
which the animal made whenever it
was approached. At length Herr
Windhorn ventured into the hold with
his keeper and endeavored to secure
the baboon, the keeper offering it food
while the owner tried to come to close
quarters.
Herr Wfodborn's foot caught In a

Langdon came. I refused to see him.
as I have fixer since the time I told
you about at Alva's. He persisted,
until at last I had the servant request
him to leave the house."
"But bow there's no longer any
reason for your staying, Anita," ha
pleaded. "He has said yoa are free.

leaving one of your empty dresses?"
She had not for an instant taken
her gaze from me; and so strange
were her eyes, so compelling, that I
seemed unable to move or speak.
But now she released me to blase
upon him and never shall I forget
any detail of her face or voice as she
said to him: "That is false. Mow
bray Langdon. I told yon the truth
when I told you I loved him!"
So violent was her emotion that
she had to pause for self-control. And
I? I was overwhelmed, dazed,
stunned. When she went on, she
was looking at neither of us. "Yes,
I loved him, almost from the first
from the day he came to the box at
the races. I was ashamed, poor crea-4
tare that my parents had made me!
I was ashamed of it. And I tried to
hate him, and thought I did. And
when he showed me that he no longer
cared, my pride goaded me into the
folly of trying to listen to you. But
I loved him more than ever. And as
yon and he stand here, I am ashamed
again ashamed that I was ever so
blind and ignorant and prejudiced as
to compare him with" she looked at
Langdon "with you. Bo you believe
me now now that I humble myself
before him here in your presence?"
I should have had no heart at all
if I had not felt pity for him. His
face was gray, and on it were those
signs of age that strong emotion
brings to the surface after 40.
"You could have convinced me in no
other way," he replied, after a si
lence, and in a voice I should not
have recognized.
Silence again. Presently he raised
his head, and with something of bis
old cynicism bowed to her.
"You havepavenged much and
many," said he: "I have often had a
presentiment that my day of wrath
would come."
He lifted his hat, bowed at me with
out looking at me, and, drawing the
tatters of his pose still further over
his wounds, moved away toward the
landing.
I, still in a stupor, watched him un
til he had disappeared. When I
turned to her, she dropped her eyes.
"Uncle Howard will be back this
afternoon," said she. "If I may, I'll
stay at the house until he comes to
take me."
A weary, half-suppressed sigh
escaped from her. I knew how she
must be reading my silence, but I was
still unable to speak. She went to the
horse, browsing near by; she stroked
his muzzle. Lingeringly she twined
her fingers in his mane, as if about
to spring to his back! That remind
ed me of a thousand and one changes
in her little changes, each a trifle
in itself, yet, taken all together, mak
ing a complete transformation.
"Let mc help you," I managed to
say. And I bent, and made a step
of my hand.
She touched her fingers to my
shoulder, set her narrow, graceful foot
upon my palm. But she did not rise.
I glanced up, she was gazing wistful
ly down at,me.
"Women have to learn by experience
Just as do men," said she, forlornly.
"Yet men will not tolerate it."
I suppose I must suddenly have
looked what I was unable to put into
words for her eyes grew very wide,
and, with, a cry that was a sigh and
a sob. and a laugh and a caress all
in one, she slid Into my arms and her
face was burning against mine.
"Do you remember the night at the
theater," she murmured, "when your
lips almost touched my neck? I
loved you then Black Matt Black
Matt!"
And I found voice;' and the horse
wandered away.
The End.
With Baboon
to shake off the powerful beast. In
his effort to release himself Herr
Windhorn tried to force open the jaws
of the baboon with his hands. He
was in a measure successful, but the
baboon quickly fastened its fangs in
Herr Windhorn's right hand, which
was injured even more extensively
than the leg. The keeper, who hur
ried to his master's aid. quickly be
came the subject of attack, the
baboon inflicting several bites on him,
while the boatswain of the liner was
also bitten.
The beast afterward refused to be
overcome by half a bottle of whisky
and a dose of opium powerful enough
to poison ten men was also given
him in a bottle of lemonade without
effect Eventually a large grating was
fixed outside the companionway and
then by means of a display of fruit
the brute was coaxed near it and as
he stretched his arm through the grat

cured. Legs and arms were at lsagth
tightly lashed, after which the ba&oon.
attached to the grating, was returned
to the cage and then released. He
died four days later and Herr Wind
horn says he thinks death was due
to a broken heart.

LINEN FOR THE KITCHEN.

The kitchen department should re

is lavished on the more showy table

guests as the napkins and dollies, but
there is a great peace and self-respect

much more thinly because of Its great
er strength than other makes.
