'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

"Oh. dear! Did you break the mir
ror?" "I made a hole In It That confound

"Did you hurt yourself V

my head.
The next morning Mrs. Blunt gate
her husband revolver to a peddler.

"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.
