"The situation is not bright, but the desperation of the population is so great that the most serious consequences can be expected." A STORY OF MARRIED LIFE REVELATIONS I OF A WIFE. I By Adele Garrison. Ths Startling Nsws that Hsr Father's Lettsr Bre to Madge. Don't look like that," Lillian com mended eharpl) when the door of the living room closed behind me, shutting off the rest of the dinner guests. "Vour father's all right, yet" Her quick intuition had divined the fact that I realized the special delivery registered letter she had received during her dinner to Robert Savarln waa from my father in South America. It waa like her, aUo, to calm my fears as quick ly ss possible, and at the same time to tell the truth. "Sit down," she eaid, "and read the letter. There iau't any use now for you to reraait. in ignorance of your father's address. You'll have to be atrictly on the job from now on. "But, remember," ehe lifted an ad monishing finger, "you mustn't let your (ace betray you when you so back into the room. Tbere'a aomething out of the ordinary about tbia affair of your fath er'e; something I don't understand at all, and the fewer people know about it the better. "Of course, youH have to ahow the letter to Dicky, but let me talk to him first. I think I can frighten him into keeping his ustmlly garrulous tongue between his teeth. I wouldn't have shown you the letter until after the other guests had gone home, but I eaw you were in an agony of uneasiness about It." "I couldn't have waited," I answered simply, snd the words came through lips that were etiff. Then I took tve letter and read it through. The beading waa that of an unpro nounceable Spanish town in a country which I knew from my newspaper and magazine reading waa giving our own government no little trouble on account of its covert emnity. And tbe hand writing, unlike the usual, beautiful firm chtrography of my father, waa irregtilsr. aa if the band that penned it had trem bled as it wrote. "Soms Gravs Danger." "My darling daughter," the letter be-fn- "I have hesitated a long time before writing this letter, for I did not wish to alarm you. But things have come to ench a paaa with me lately that I see I sbsll have to take precautions or else I shall become one of the great army whoso fata Is marked 'unknown. ' ."Ton most bs brave, my dear one, when I tell yon tbet I believe I am In such grave danger it is most uncertain1 whether I shall ever aee yon again or not. I have worked for many years down here, snd bsve bad many escapes. arU. but never before have I felt the einiater menace that aeems to surround ms. It is a new influence, too, one thst I be lieve to be directed against myself per sonally, instead of against my work. I feel ita invisible meshes slowly closing around me and in the averted faces and altered demeanor of the native officials who have been associated with me so long I read a distrust that can only have its roots in some underground, personally-conducted, campaign against me. In plainer words, I believe these native associates of mine are being made to believe that I am a traitor to them, and if they finally make up their minds to that fact, my passing will be Inevit able. I shall simply disappear, and you will never know what has become of me. "With this possibility staring me in the face, there are things thst I must have done quickly. Onj of these is the disposition of what small1 fortune I pos sess, and I have already aent to my lawyers an absolute deed of gift to you of everything I own. Then yon won't have to wait for absolute proof of my death .to use yeur money. Nothing Dishonorable. "The other tcsk I have in band la more difficult. I hsve never told you in exactly what work I am engaged, be cause it ia work which had to be sb.-oud-ed in secrecy. I am not boasting when I say that things bang upon the success or failure of m, work bete which would astound and overwelm you if you knew of them. But one thing I wish to say to you now, something which I have divined your delicate sense of honor would prize. ".My child, there is nothing in the leant dishonorable about the work in which your father baa been engaged all hia life. If you knew all about it, I think perhaps you might be proud of him." My eyes were ao blinded with teara of thankfulness that I could not read further without drying them. "Thank heaven," I murmured. "Oh, thank heaven." SAYS IT ACTED LIKE A CHARM."
