OUKUON 'What that?" Mrs. Uluut aat up it bed. at thu fiame time clutching her bun band arm In a vtuetike grip. "What's what?" grunted Mr. Blunt, trying to wake himself up. "Burglars! Didn't you hear 'em?" "No, Where?" "Downstairs. They've run against some glassware and s mushed it." "I'm going down," an Id Mr, Blunt, nt tempting to rise, hut his wife huh! blm. He broke away from her ami going to a bureau, took a revolver then, taking an electric light In hi- left band, pressed his thumb on tti. button and descended the staircase He passed from the lower hull to tht drawlng room and from the drawing room to the dining room, where he found the fragments on the floor of a cut glass dish that bad been knocked off the sideboard. He looked in a drawer in the sideboard where the silver In dally use was kept, expect ing to find It gone. It was all there and he concluded that the burglar, feeling In the dark, had knocked off the dish and. fearing to have awakened the household, bad taken himself away as soon as possible, Mr. Blunt opened a door that led into the pnntry, through which be passed Into the kitchen. All was silent and empty. Ho tried the door leading out on to a back stoop and found It locked. But he found a window sash unlocked and made- up bis mind that i the burglar had found nn entrance nnd an exist through that window. He lock- i ed It nnd, having satisfied himself that ! the burglar had left the premises with-! out having had time to take nny booty, went back to his room, when he found his wife standing shivering In the middle of the room. She had expected every moment to hear n report and that her husband would be killed. "Are they gone?" she cried. "Yes." "How did they get In?" "Ho or they must hare entered and gone out by the kitchen window. Please caution Susan to bo more care ful about locking the sashes." Mrs. Blunt had lighted the gas. and her husband, who was fuclug a mirror, wns somewhat startled at his oppcar once as reflected In It. Ho was In his nightshirt, with a revolver In one band and n tubular electric lamp In the other, both the Inmp and the revolver looking equally terrible. The expecta tion of fating a burglar had been somewhat trying to htm, and his usu ally florid face was pale. Nevertheless be assured his wife thnt the burglar had gone and there was no need for hor to feet frightened. They returned to bed, but Mrs. Blunt would not con sent to the gns being turned off. To ward morning they fell Into n doze. The episode unhinged Mrs. Blunt'x nerves, nnd Mr. Blunt, though he pooh poohed nt her fears, never went lo bed without thinking how reckless he had been In going down to face n burglar with a light In his hand that would show the villain just where he wos. Ue would not be so foolish again. He would carry the lamp, but would noi flash uutll occasion required. Mrs. Blunt declared that If there was again evidence of burglars in the bouse she would lock her husband In their bed room. But Mr. Blunt declared that his manliness would not permit hltn to leave nny man to roam nbout his house and carry away his property. One night when be wns wakeful nnd bis wife was sound asleep Mr. Blunt wns sure he heard sounds downstairs Getting cautiously out of bed he slip ped on his coat, for the house was cold, tiptoed to the bureau, where he found the revolver, then to the mantel, where he found the electric lamp, and taking as before one In each hand he stealthily unlocked the bedroom door nnd felt his way by the banister downstnlrs. In tho hall below he felt something Jur against his leg. At the same time a street Inmp throwing a faint light into tho drawing room showed him the ! dim figure of n man on the other side of tho room. It occurred to Mr. Blunt thnt he was standing In the dark and while he could. see the man indistinctly the man couldn't see htm at nil. His first Impulse wns to run upstairs nnd lock hlmsolf in his bedroom; his second was to shoot the intruder before the fellow was aware of his presence; oth erwise be might be murdered by a des perate man. ItaUlug his revolver, he shut his eyea and let drive. He heard a shriek upstairs and sounds made by something running awny. The first came frum Mrs. Blunt; the second was like the flight of an nulmal nnd camo from the cat. Hearing nothing further, Mr. Blunt crouched behind a newel post and flashed hla Inmp Into the drawing room. He saw no one, but a hole with radiant crncks had been mndo In a corner of a mirror rest. Ing on the mantel. "Don't be frightened, my dear. Come down here." Mrs. Blunt, who waa hanging on to the banister above, responded faintly: "Hear en! Are you killed?" "Not exsctly. I'm only a fool." "What la ur "Shot nt reflection In the mirror. "Oh. dear! Did you break the mir ror?" "I made a hole In It That confound ed cat ran by me and unset me." "Did you hurt yourself V "t mean she startled me. and t lost my head. The next morning Mrs. Blunt gate her husband revolver to a peddler. Deeoribes Hit Symptoms. "I hear your husband Is sick.

"HAIR THAT GIVES FATHER TIME THE LAUGH" We are just about as old as we LOOK People judge us, by the way we LOOK. The man or woman with grey hair ii be ginning to get in the "Old Timer's Class." This Twentieth Century does NOT want GREY hairt-it wants the energy of Youth. The big things are being done by the YOUNCifcK generation. There's a sort of "Has Been" look about those "Grey Hairs." There isalways one to criticise and smile scornfully. Father Time is a stern disciplinarian. Get the best of him. Give him the laugh. Do not be a "Has Been. It's unnecessary.
