The tr k " By this time we had arrived at tho top of a slight eminence from which the laboratory was distinctly visible. It wa.s a large, square building with a hem-ispherical roof not unlike an astronom-ical observatory. An this strange, structure canio into view Herr Schwartz halted, and, turning his back upon it, solemnly addressed himself to me: "Wait," he said. "It is not yet too late for you to withdraw. You have known me long enough to be sure I am of sound mind, and to know whether you can rely upon iny good faith. I as-sure you that in the experiment I mn about to make no harm can come to you. I alone will take all risks and be respon-sible for all the results. That is but right, since I alone shall reap whatever benefit may spring from the momentous trial. .Speak, then, and let me know whether I have rightly concluded that I his views to be even more downrightahct avowed thau I supposed. Outside of his lecture hours Herr Schwartz was believed to spend the greater part of his time in his laboratory a large and mysterious building situ-ated upon the outskirts of the town. Much curiosity existed among the stu. dents as to the nature of the researches he carried on in this gloomy building, but never, so far as we knew, had any student been admitted within its window-les- s walls. Great, then, was my surprise one morn-ing when the learned lecturer was tak-ing a long walk with me a thing that he had done once or twice since ho dis-covered my intense interest in his bold theories to receive an invitation to coma with him to inspect his laboratory.

The animul life is restricted for a purpose to a few forma to such as are necessary to sustain life in the human being. The purpose of this great invention for modesty over such an achievement wonld be absurd will soon be revealed to you." "It is truly almost superhuman," I said. "It seems to move as I look upon it." "It does," he answered prondly. "It is essentially a new world. But let ns not waste time in boyish wonder. All this is not a toy, bnt a piece of scientific apparatus." "But what purpose can it serve?" I asked, after a few moments of bewilder-ment. "After years of investigation," said Herr Schwartz slowly, "I have learned; the history of tho development of man. I have slowly unraveled tho links of the chain extending from man as hn exists today to the mere potential nouiad. Yon, too, have surveyed a part of that won-drous story literally wrung from the heart of tho rocks." ' "Yes," I said hesitatingly, "but the 'misning linkJ"' "I have several skeletons of the 'mi-in- g link,' " said Herr Schwartz, "That is the very least of my discoveries. Jly thoughts for yearn hav not beenbmyj with the paat of evolution. My dreams, nay. rather my reasoning, my inven-tions and my discoveries, have dealt with its future. But enough. The ex-periment will make all clear to yon where words piled upon words would fail to effect a beginning. A few short expla-nations and we will proceed to deeds, and you will sej for yourself whatever now seems obscure. Hit down." We entered a small side rooni, from which conld bedistinguished a slight vi-bration caused by the revolution of tho great globe in tho onter room, and et- - j tied down into two easy chair. j "Listen," said Herr Schwartz, "and j uiiIitss it. be necessary do not interrupt me.

"And then" I began. "Silence- !- for it Moment longer," said Herr Schwartz impressively. "I am not done. Then you must stop tho rev-olutions. A bell will strike for a signal, Take, then, the portion of that, earth' cniat upon which yon know m to be in fact, you might take all of India, as it is but a light burdeuund carry it into thn open air. There you will sen the result of this pxperinicnr. What It will bo I know almost licynnd thn jmis-- ; tiibility of error. But you shall not have the supreme happiness of that moment destroyed by anticipation." "But have you counted thn risks, tho possibility of some tin foreseen result'f" I asked, with uno;minee nt thn great re-sponsibility I was called nii to assume without preparation. "I have," aaid the experimenter, with noble confidence. "The riidiH and tho result are alike mine. If you will not aid nm another must. But 1 you I oiler this unparalleled experience." "1 accept it," I replied; for after some few moment of reflection I could nee no reason why an American should not lie the lnimbloinstrtiinni.of bringing alsiut this marvelou triunipfi fif over nature. It was now alxmt noon, and wo par-took of a light, luncheon.

Are you willing to assist me in this purely scientific experiment?" "Herr Schwartz," I replied, after a moment's reflection, "only assure me that you will call upon me to do nothing derogatory to my status as tin American citizen, a man of science and a a gen-tleman, and I will consent gladly to aid you in any way within my power." "I give you my word as an evolution-ist and as a scholar that you can safely assist me upon those conditions," said Herr Schwartz. "Very well," I answered, "I consent." "There is no time to be lost, then," ho answered. Wo set out for the laboratory, and after a few minutes stood before tho heavy oak door. It was secured by a combination lock. Herr Schwartz gave the handle a few revolutions, the bolt flew back and we entered tho building, and when the door was shut found our-selves in perfect darkness. In a moment, however, I heard a slight click, and the interior of the lab-oratory was flooded with the radiance of tm enormous incandescent light. I do not know how I can most clearly convey tho impression made upon me by the wondrous sight which was revealed to me. Perhaps the plainest and simplest method is the best. I must trust for the rest to the imagination of my readers. I Haw that the enormous hemispherical dome that roofed tho edifice had raised to accommodate a model of the globe- -a terrestrial globe.

Ah. no. Y'ou are, different: you have a trulv scientific mind. To the ordinary intellect what I am doing would seem but nonsense.
