A Deathbed
Triumph
By WILLIAM CHANDLER
An old inun Iny on the bed of death.
A doctor sat by him Intent Uion some
tii-thl of Having hia life. An entirely
UTcniit problem was lu the uilud of
the auflerer.
I HK-tor." be aakl presently, "can't 1
die for a short time, then come tp life
again for a certain purpose?"
"What purpose?" aaked the doctor.
The Invalid cant hla ejes about the
room to see that no oue was present.
then, atretrhliiK forth hla band, drew
the doctor to hliu and wblapered what
be. had to say. When be came to a
panne the doctor Bald;
"I have suspected as much.''
"Can It be doner asked the Utralld.
"It can be tried."
Some more conversation followed. In
which the doctor gave the sick man
Instructions, nud the tick man did the
same by the doctor. Then the latter
ended the matter by saying:
"Are you ready T
"Tea."
The doctor took from his medicine
case a tablet and placed It in the pa
tient a mouth.
The sick man, who was lylnr on his
back, stared at the celUutc Immovable.
The doctor went hurriedly to the door
and opened It There stood the wife of
the Invalid.
"Madam," said the doctor, "1 fear
that your husband Is dead."
The woman harried Into the room and
stood over the sickbed for a few mo
ments looking down Into the pal face.
The doctor, who was beside her, closed
the eyes of her huabniid, then led her
away, saying:
"This has been a long trtnl to yon.
Your watch Is now over. Go and rent
yourself."
She suffered herself to be led away
and within an hour was In bed and
asleep.
Paul Markham passed away at dawn
the next morning. Preparations were
made for the funeral, which was held
three daya later, and on the fourth
day his widow, who was his second
wife, and ber two children by a for
mer husband, all dnmaed In deep
mourning, entered the drawing room of
the house in which ilr. Markbam hnd
aied and took seats. A number of
other persons, Including a lawyer, en
tered, and wben all were seated the
attorney unfolded a document and waa
about to begin Us reading wben Dr.
Blanchard, who had attended the de
ceased, entered In company with a girl
of fifteen. There waa about her a mel
ancholy that savored of despair.
"I have here." said the lawyer, "the
last will and testament of Paul Mark
ham, deceaaed, executed one year ago."
He then read the will, which left all

had been duly aigm-d and v. H i. itwd, j
he added that It would be Immediate 1
ly filed for probate. He was refolding '
the document when Lr. Itlaucbard
arose and, drawing a paper from hla ,
pocket said: j
"1 have a wUI executed a few hours
before Taul Mnrkbaui'a death."
The widow's countenance changed
Immediately.
"If you hare any such will," she
said, "it Is a forgery. At any rate It
was not witnessed. That I know, be
cause 1 waa In attendance upon my
buaband every day and hour during
his last tlltietw, and I know no one
ho could have witnessed a will en
tered the bonne."
What time did you go to bed the
night your husband dledf asked the
doctor.
"At 10 o'clock."
"Your husband did not die till 2
o'clock the next morning."
He died at B o'clock In the evening.
Yon called me Into the room where be
lay and told me he waa dead."
"I told you I feared be was dead.
Be Was very low. He revived, and at
midnight 1 drew this simple will for
hint, bequeathing all bis property to
bis daughter, Ethel Markham. Two
persons came at my call and witnessed
the will while you were asleep."
The woman stared at the doctor, al
though ahe could hardly believe her
tenses. For years she had dominated
her husband and for a year, since she
bad forced him to make a will In her
favor, hud watched him carefully b
make sure that he did not tunke an
other. At the very end of bin life be
had outwitted her.
"Let me see It" she said to the doc
tor. ne held the paper before her. Hlie
read It and recognized her htwbnnd's
signature, though H bad been written
In the agony of death. Realizing that
she had been foiled, she arose from
her scat and, followed by her two chil
dren, stalked out of the room.
Dr. Blanchard by the terms of tlie
deathbed will was made Ethel's guard
Ian, and she thereafter made her real
dence with him. Her life had been
nearly crtiahed out of her by her step
mother, and it required some time to
restore her to a healthy state of mind
and body. But by the time she came
of age she wns completely recovered,
for her surroundings as a memlier of
the doctor's family were all that could
lie desired, and be knew bow lo treat
her to her advantage professionally.
In his old age bis savings of years
were swept n way in a commercial pan
ic, and Ethel Markbam provided for
him and those of bis family who were
still too young to take care of them
selves. Comparatively Speaking.

out at pit No. 7. We had fought
all day long 4111 the slrauuest linttle
lleld of the whole war In the Wilder
Heart. From rllit to left Hank, from
front to renr, we were hemmed In by
forest and thicket. Them were swamps
lu which lizard and mrpenls lurked,
thickets in which the coy whlppour
wlir built Its ut-u. dens., spots of f.ir
eHl which seemed never lo have echoed
the ring of the woodman's nx. '

place, well away from the cumps, the

Rustle, rustic! Wen, step! It was
a cautious movement. Whoever It was
hoped to reach me without discovery,
but there were fiend leaves underfoot
and the thicket was dense. A lime
could not have moved without lad ray

"Who conn's here?"
There Is sileiico for fifteen seconds,
and then a woman's voice answers:
"I can't find the place! It's so dark
1 can't find the place!"
Aye, It whs a woman's voice, and It
had a sob In It too--a woman there In
the darkness between the hostile lines
with powder smoke still in the air,
with stray bullets darting through the
thlckels with a whiz us of some great
