In binding the splints together, it was necessary for Jebb to touch those hands. They seemed to singe him like white fire. Tell him to wear the sling for a ''week and the splints for two weeks, he said as he finished, regaining a professional acerbity of tone. "Ask him if he found out anything about the child." The question was repeated, Miruma spoke with wonderful gentleness: No, poor Jebb Effendi, he flnded not the child He is search the all of Uskub. Nobody is see a leetle girl of the Franks. The Franks? no, no, she is an American child. All you Ingiliz and Europeans , i m . are Franks to us.

And the answer to his nauseating apology was that she had known it all the time. Jaffar, finding him unconscious in the street, had, at her orders, undressed him, bathed him, put him to bed, and taken his clothes, drenched as they were with rain, to dry them in the kitchen and to iron them while the other servants slept. Jaffar had reported that there was not a thing in all the strangers garments only the usual pocket dust, not a portemonnaie, not a card, not a coin, not even a bronze baish-parAs delicately as might be she strove to put Jebb at his ease. It shall lje pleasure to me to geeve to Jebb Effendi what I have of money." Seeing his look of horror, she hastened to amend: And he shall pay it again when Allah sends him reeches once more. But Jebb put up his hand to check her. He could not endure this. I have hoort the feeling of Jebb Effendi by to offer him of mine, she said.

It ees perhaps a reeng some lady gived the effendi? No, no. I bought it myself And he added with perfect truth: It has no associations for me whatever. With which he twisted it from his finger and held it out to her. Suddenly a truth stabbed Jebb to the heart; he saw that this woman for whom he had begun to feel a tenderness had begun to feel a jealousy of him. The implied proprietorship did not irritate him. It delighted him; and the delight was the keener for being edged with fear. Tomorrow morning while yet the effendi is sleep (Inshallah!) Jaffar shall have good and corned back with the money."

It is one of the fewlhat harem Miruma rose laziness permits. straight in air like a lark leaping upward from a meadow. But as she stepped forward, her foot caught on the hem of her robe. She lost her poise, swayed, would have fallen. But Jebb had risen from the divan; he put out his arm; her weight was upon him so suddenly that he had no little difficulty with his own equilibrium. The recovery of both was a matter of brief and busy delay. Miruma gave a little cry of alarm at her plight, another of dismay at finding herself in a mans arms And then she fled, spiri tual, like a dark cloud trailing along a mountainside. He put out the lights and groped his way to the window where the moonbeams beat in and showered the floor. logne. cross-legge- d soft-foote- d, O is that the train from Salonica brought me here.

Before the invention of the present sounding machine by Lord Kelvin, methods of sounding in deep water were cumbersome, lengthy, and not always reliable. The lead used was of the same size and shape approximately as that used today. Sailors were lined along the side of the ship from bow to stern on platforms called chains." The leading man held the lead, to which were attached many thousands of feet of rope on which were marks indicating depth in fathoms. A Few Hours From Salt Lake Hotel Plandome any.-Yo- Charts are to the seamen what d maps are to the motorist. Glance at a chart and observe the thousands of mysterious little figures and letters which cover the portions devoted to various oceans. These are of the utmost importance to the seaman, telling him the depth of water and what lies beneath him, says Pearson's Weekly. By means of compass and sextant the captain of a ship fixes what he calculates to be the exact position of his vessel. On the chart appears, say, the letter r, denoting that beneath lies rock. To make quite sure that he is not heading the ship to destruction on some undiscovered sandbank, he takes soundings. Standing on either side of the bridge is a steel framework on four legs with a large drum and above this is fixed a dial marked in fathoms. On the drum many thousands of feet of thin steel wire are wound. At the end of the wire is a short rope length of special to which is tied a weight. The base of the lead weight, known simply as the lead, is hollowed out in the form of a shallow cup in which is placed a quantity of tallow. Fastened securely to the . mirror. . 1 .
