And he was loft there In the nan row hall, alone, watting. Down the two flights he heard her tripping toward hint "Oh, dear, I was sure it was a mes senger," she apologised. "Did you wish to see met" Jose's eyes never left her lovely face. Her eyes were blue, blue ai forget-me-nots, no, he told himself, s deeper, rarer blue, the blue of hli own southern skies when twilight fell. And her face, tender yet proud, like his mother's. He threw himself on her mercy, and told why he had come. They had stepped into the long draw ing room of the old-fashioned board ing house, and she listened in silence. "It is very, very wrong of me to In trude," Joee pleaded, desperately, "but scnorita, forgive. My heart bleeds fot you. If I may but help you in your tefrlble trouble" Then she leaned back her head and laughed. . It Is so good of you to come, bat listen. There is no trouble nothing stall. I am an actress. Mr. Serrano - that is your name, is it not? We are very busy rehearsing a new play, and I have the emotional part. I always study that way in my own room, and perhaps I have been too oblivious of the outside world. Can you ever for give me for disturbing you so?' Jose's dark eyes glowed as he watched her. "I shall thank the good God for it,1 he told her gravely. "If I could but know you, but meet you conventionally." She mused, smiling at the naive re mark.

Between them lay two yards, high- fenced, uninhabited by humans. Never luring his two weeks residence at SOS had he seen any person down in those Darren little oblongs of earth. But in the house opposite she lived la a room n the same floor as his own. i "I nave been in New xorg one month."

Everv dar a similar letter went louth to Senora Serrano, widow of ;he great civil engineer who had been killed by a fall In the canal works, one fatal backward step, and a plunge to death over the towering lock.

I should not tell you that, but why not? It is so good to meet some one in these prosaic, self ish days who would go to the rescui of a woman in trouble." Jose forgot the old bouse In the harbor town in Panama, forgot his career, everything, "Ah, you would have been more kind If it had been true. I am sorry ' "For whatT" Natalie Leonard smiled at his eager, handsome face, That you are not in trouble. I have watched you. every day, and longed to help you. You were so help less, so lovely. I I grew to adors you, senorita." with unconscious dignity of race the boy made his confession. Nata He's eyes filled with quick tears. She put out her hands to him impulsively. It is wrong, I know, but I cannot help it. It was dear of you to even feel so toward me a stranger, and and if you like, you may see me some time again.' "I shall see you every day at your window," he told her, seriously. "I shall smile over to you, and sometimes throw you roses- "Oh, no, you mustn't," laughed the girl. "That is too public in our land." "So? But I should love to. Still, you will call good morning to me, now that we are so well acquainted?" I had far better leave entirely, be fore it is too late." Serrano bent and kissed ber slim white hands.

Some persons will tell you that cats ian see in ths dark. Now nothing can iee in the dark, but some animals can tee with a great deal less light than ithers, Just as some cameras will take a picture with less light than others Vou open or close the lens in a camera according to the amount of light, or else you speed up the shutter or slow It down. The human eye does this automat ically, as the pupil expands or con tracts according to the amount of light to which it is exposed; but cats can expand or contract the pupils of their eyes at pleasure, Just as you open or Inhnf th atnna In ihm Una nf Tour earners. When cats are not particularly an ious to see anything the pupils of their eyes become nothing but narrow slits, like this: Ills father, a civil engineer. He would tail to New York, the city of gold, and itudy there, work, fight his own way. There would be then plenty for his mother to maintain the two great es tates where so many American offl- dais had known Serrano hospitality.

If you happen to be between the cat and the light you will see a peculiar gleam In this wide open pupil, which is the reflection of the light at the back of the cat's eye. I, A M.

Never did she appear even to glance at those op posite. Jose knew why. She was In some Kreat. mysterious trouble. She brooded. She was miserable. But toaay sne was sunenng more than usual. He stared, fascinated by her actions. She paced the floor, not swiftly, but with steady, slow, rhyth mic step like some caged leopardess. Sometimes she would pause before the mirror, stare at the sad, strained face reflected there, raise her hands above her as if in supplication, sink on her knees and sob, then presently back to the steady pacing. Her Hps moved constantly as if in prayer. Jose felt he should go mad if It continued. Every nerve In hie body was tense with the desire to save her from whatever it was she feared. His Imagination pictured ten thousand persecutions. Finally, as she dropped again to her knees, her shoulders shaking In a perfect agony of emotion, he seized his hat and rushed from his room. The door slammed behind him. Down the steps, two, three at a Jump, he sped down the street, around the corner, and up the next street. Her number would be 310, he Judged. There was ivy clinging to it. He traced It easily, and ran up the steps in a fever of impatience. Come what may, he would assist her, save her. He could at least offer his aid, let her know that In all that vast city there was one who would esteem It a blessed privilege to be allowed to help her. The door opened. Chilled water seemed to course down his spine as he sought to explain his madness to placid old Mrs. Gilligan, the landlady. 'I greatly wish to speak with the young lady on the third floor, in the k of the residence," he stammflrad. Science Is Gradually Learning About Egg Producers, According to a Writer In Life. The truth about hens why some are helpful, others hopeless perhaps will be the next notable achievement of science. How any fact can escape this time is hard to imagine. Kansas, from the one side, has surrounded Hen Truth to make it surrender important psychological information; Missouri, from the other, has begun to study ths subject physiologically and has ar ranged an egglaying contest at the Mountain Grove poultry experiment station, which began on the first of last September and which is to run a year. The Investigator In Kansas is a Junior in the state university, taking work in the psychological laboratory, He reports these interesting discover ies: 1. Chickens do not care for a crowd, yet abhor being alone. 2. Intelligent chickens have both mind and memory. 3. They also have an ability to dis tinguish color grades. That's the way with these collegiate scientists! They leave us with princi ples barren of practical value. What we most long to know is what color to paint the border of the flower beds to cause the aesthetic eye of intelligent hens to turn to other fields and re member ours with aversion. Life.

To . use' the wrong form of these words subjected the would-be sportsman to ridicule. Many of these terms have passed away, but some of them are still talned. -This list from the middle ages Is still good usage today. A "pride' of lions, a "lepe" of leopards, a "herd" of harts and of all sorts of deer, "bevy" of roes, a "sloth" of hears, "singular" of boars, a "sounder" of wild swine, a "route" of wolves, a "harras' of horses, a "ray" of colts, a "stud" of mares, a "pace" of asses, a "barren" of mules, a "team" of oxen, a "drove of kine, a "flock" of sheep, a "trite" of Koats. a "skulk" of foxes, a "down" of hares, a "nest" of rabbits, a "clowder" of cats, a "schrewdness" of apes and a "labor" of moles. Also, of animals when they retired to rest, a hart was said to be "har bored," a roebuck ''bedded," a hare "formed," a rabbit "set." Two grey hounds were called a "brace," but two harriers were called a "couple." There was also a "mute" of hounds for a number, a "kennel" of raches, a "lit ter" of whelps and a "cowardice" of curs. ' This kind of descriptive phraseology was not confined to birds and beasts, but was extended to the human spe cies and their various propensities, natures and callings. Care of Persian Girls. "Great care is taken that the Per sian girls shall conform to the recog nized standard of beauty, which re quires her to have a cypress waist, a full-moon face, gazelle eyes and eye brows that meet," says a traveler. "Her eyes, brows and hair must be black as night, her lips, cheeks and gums as red as blood, her skin and teeth as white as almonds, and her back, limbs and fingers long. If these conditions are naturally absent they are supplied, as far as possible, by irt. Persian women are always paint ed, their eyes darkened with khol and their flnxers stained with henna." C. W.
