THAT SOUND IN THE NIGHI
Nothing So Very Terrible, but at Leas!
Henry Found Out Just What
Caused It.
It certainly was a strange sound—
even though :U midnight all sound"*
are strange. Mrs. Moefetou nudged
her husband hard.
"Henry," she whispered, loudly,
"wake up at once, and go downstairs!
!t sounds like burglars!"
"Yes, m.v dear," replied Henry-,
nervously. "But 1 don't—"
"If you don't go at once," stated
his better half, "I will go myself I"
"I shall certainly go, Maria," Henry
said wltli dignity; then he added, "If 1
hear It again."
"No. go now," ordered Maria, "or 1
shall shriek' for the police, and tell
them that you made no attempt to
capture the thieves!"
"Very well." replied Henry, through
trembling lips; "hut let me kiss you
and the baby before I go, and when
he grows tip tell him that his brave
daddy Jumped out of bed one bitter
night nnd boldly attacked severai
armed burglars and fought with them
till he was overpowered and—"
"O-o-o-oh, Henry, there It Is acaln!
Go at once!" yelled Maria, giving him
fl mighty push.
And Henry went downstairs, trem
bling violently. Cautiously opening
the kitchen door he turned on the elec
tric light—and found the kitten play
ing with baby's India-rubber bull.
TO TEACH BLIND TO DRAW
I English Idea Is That Art May Help
the Sightless to Communicate
With Outs'de World.
One of the'many experiments of the
Royal Drawing society has been to
teaeh people to draw by touch. The
pupil Is blindfolded and feels a simple
shape, like a hammer of a spade, and
draws it with his eyes open. An ad
vanced pupil has drawn the head of a
classical bust and the mask of Bee
thoven.
These experiments fired Mr. C. B.
Ablett. the director of the societj, with
the Idea of drawing by the blind, lie
has devised a medium which looks like
the frosted stuff on a matchbox made
liquid, by which the draughtsman can
follow by touch what he has drawn
and correct or add to his work. So far
there have been no experiments with a
blind pupil.
Mr. Ablett does not claim for It more
than that a blind man can dmw the
plan or a design of something he
wishes t-> record and explain. A blind
gardener has been known to go into
ecstasies over the unfolding shapes of
a plant, and the drawing of these
shapes, known to him by touch would
undoubtedly give him a form of es
thetic pleasure. In any rase, it would
jniMvaip his means of communicating
with the outside world.
\ treat boon, if Ihe method Is pnic
ticiihl*. would be that it w >uld eitnbfe
the blind to write and to read writ
ing.— Manchester tinardian.
Airplanes Wil! Aid Mining.
It is predicted that the airplane and
the dirigible will prove a great stim-'J
ultis t» the mining industry in pre
suming a means of getting material
and men to and from locations which
are kt^wn to be rich with ore and
which are at the present time Inacces
sible. There are many such places
known to exist, bat the cost «»f build
ing n roadway to them would be so j
great as to be prohibitive. Attention
t" th « phase of the subject has been
lecetiiiy attracted by a report made j
by Doctor Lyon, supervisor of the
ruining stations for the 1'ni'ed States
bureau of mines. By this means a j
regular communication could be main
tained with sections which are not to
be reached by any ordinary means. I
It Is also suggested that the same
means might be of great value for;
netting rescue apparatus to the scene
of mining disasters.
Where Big Industry Began.
The dilapidated old shack, still
standing at East port. Me.. Is of inter
est by reason of Its being the start ins
place of the great American sardine
Industry.
The experiment of converting the
small herring Into the canned sardine
was tried out in this factory, built for !
that p!iri>osp by Julius Wolff, a Kus- ;
sluti. and other New York promoters I
nearly forty years ago. At that time
the picturesque weirs. In which the
fish are seined, usually Joined the fac
tory property.
From its birth. In this small factory, j
sardine canning has developed to al
most the chief Industry mi the Maine
coast, employing thousands of skilled
workers each season, and has placed
Eastport on the map as one of the
most important tishing ports in the
country.
Locomotive Rolled Over.
After a storm that buried the New
Kngland coast in snow last March,'
passengers on a railroad line through !
Rhode Islaud were amazed to observe
a locomotive standing upright In a
swampy brook that runs under the j
right of way at one point. The en- j
gine started out with a snowplow to
clear the track, but jumped the rails !
at the brook trestle, the plow going
one way and Its motive power the
other. Confronted, then, by the prob
lem of removing the new obstruction,
and not caring to devote three engines
to getting one back on the track, the
rail tneu cut the Gordian knot by roll
ing the big locomotive down the em
bankment. Despite the slide and
plunge. It finished r'ght side up.—

"Not a peep! Not a peep," worried
Auut Prisellla, stooping over the beu
coop. "I wouldn't mind, Juue, but it
always was my care and custom to
have the little chickens hutched out
early. 1 so like the young life of
spring."
'"So do I," June answered eagerly.
"And, oh, auntie, the young flowers,
and the blue sky. Would blue look
well on me—blue In a hat, sky blue,
with bright flowers on the crown?"
iler companion, straightened from
her task.
"Just because It's spring," she nd
uionlslied sternly, "Is no reason you
should go sky-larking with foolish
Ideas."
"Hut, auntie," the girl protested hot
ly. "Everybody needs a hat 1"
"I wouldn't care if It weren't for
the recital. And Larry will be there.
They say that 'In the spring a young
man's fancy—'"
A blush and a girlish laugh halted
her speech.
She half ran down the short street
anil rushed panting into the store of
the little lulllliier.
"Miss Vanetta," she called Impetu
ously. "would a hat the color of the
spring sky cost very much and would
you let me pay for It when my chick
ens nre hatched?"
The little milliner turned smilingly.
"You know the old proverb," she ad
monished with warning linger. "Don't
count your chickens before they—"
"Have feathers enough to trim n
hat," laughed the girl. "But, oh, Miss
Vanetta. the minstrels nre to give a
recital anil I'm to play. They'll aM
be dressed beautifully, while I'll have
nothing but my decrepit old clothes.
Ar.il somebody will be there w!h>—'"
With a gentle hand the milliner
stroked back the unruly curls.
"I know, dear," she encouraged the
youthful confidant. "Somebody who Is
to be honored, besides many others
who love you. But, my child, don't
have your gown too long."
"Too long." gasped the girl. "But
I haven't any, Miss Vanetta, and no
prospects of any, either."
"Now let me see." mused the friend

triumphantly.

shimmering piece of soft silk from her
fragrant cedar chest.
"(lb .M'.ss Valletta." June exclaimed
with a cati'h in her throat. "How
much would I have to pay for that
Cinderella gown?"
The woman considered with her
finyer to her lips. Then she tip
toed to the girl and whimpered softly:
"Dear friend! Indeed. I would do
that and more for this wonderful
poet's ilream of a gown. No French
girl in ail gay Puree could houst of one
so sweet."

Tlie applause was tremendous.
Bewildered and not understanding
Aunt Prise.!ia was standing alone when
her hand was seized in a warm clasp.
Looking up she saw Judge Uootl
watching her with tender gaze.
"I'riseilla," he pleaded, "when 1 saw
your niece tonight she looked so like
your sister that I was carried back to
the time when you and slie ami 1

With a llurried, nervous gesture she

"1 guess perhaps I can," she whis

A REAL SISTER
By H. LOUIS RAYBOLD.
I (©. 1920. by McCluro Newipaper Syndicate.)
| "All right, Betty," said Jack
grimly, rising and reaching for his
hat. "You say you have excellent
reasons for what you are doing, but
as long as you won't tell me what
they are. you can hardly expcct me
to be satisfied. However—good-byl"
And he was gone.
Betty Reynolds stood as he had
left her, then crumpled Into a for
lorn heap lu the old rocker and sobbed
her heart out. Where was the Joy
In noble self-sacrlllce she had expected
to feel? All her being ached to run j
after the nwtn she had Just peremp
torily dismissed, to bring hiui back
and tell him It was all n mistake—
she did love him—would marry him.
Walt—If she did, how about Sue?
Betty was oee of those lucky girls
with a sister Just enough older to be
both comrade and mother to the young
er one. Even before the death of their
mother, it had been Sue who laid out
Betty's party frocks, who mended the
torn lace In her petticoats, who rifled
her own ribbon box for a bow where
with to adorn Betty's fluffy hair.
But now something more vital than
a question of hair ribbons or vacations
had arisen. Which of the two girls
should have Jack Hemingway?
Her opportunity had come. If she
refused Jack, she felt sure that, ulti
mately. he would marry Sue. Also, she
suspected that Sue cared for Jack.
Hadn't she of late caught a certain
happy wilfulness in Sue's gray eyes?
The tall girl who entered the room
a moment later seemed more than
three years older than her sister, a
fact due. no doubt, to acting as both
mother and father to gay little Betty.
She gave one quick glance at her sis
ter. Then, stripping off her gloves,
she said quite casually: "Isn't Jack at
the corner?"
Betty looked up. startled. Then,
very bravely, she began her campaign.
"He didn't stay as long as usual, prob
ably because you weren't here."
Su; said nothing for a moment
Then she sat down on the arm of the
chair and put her arm around the
girl's shoulders. "I.lttie sister," she
began lovingly, "want a piece of
news? You know Doctor Delabarre,
my chief in the lull? Well—would you
fancy him for—for a brother-in-law?"
Betty stared at her sister in bewll
| dernient. Then In a fl.Kli realization
• catue to her. "Sue Iteynolds!" she
cried. a-'d leaping to her feet she
| whirled her sister in a luoalhli -s dance
| about the room. "Oh. I thought—I
j thought It was Jack! And I sent hlra
j away and now I can have him! And
j "oh, you darling. I'm so glad for you!"
Sue was shaking lier gently. I
I "LKIen, dear, you mustn't mention It
j to a soul. Nobody knows yet."
"Not even Doctor I'elabarre?" :
J wasei' Betty, and in her happiness ;
missed her sister's startled glance.
I "(ill. Sue. I must telephone Jack's
| boarding hou«e and leave wonl for him
: to come right up this evening. And
, while I'm out to telephone I'll get a
, whole chocolate i ' • and some straw
j berry niouy--e to cel.-orate:"
Sue sank I'.own Into the rocker
Uetty inn! <n n. y vacnie'i. .ura,
I even as Motl.v lutd, Sue hurled her
I face In her hands. Dear heareu I
I Would that she had llir rluht to say
: before the»wrrld that she was Doo |
lor Pehibarre's afiianced wife! Pally
working with him In I lie laboratory
of the city hospital, she had come
to look upon him as (lie most won
derful man she had qyer met.
I As It was—well, she had done whnt
| slip did for Hetty's sake. Jack, glum'
; ami unhnppy, had hist told her at the
corner hew lie loved Hetty and how
! Hetty, for some reason she would not
give, had turned him down. And Sue,
i with the tender Intuition of an elder
sister, put two and two together and
made exactly four—no more, no less.
Sue had herself well In hand by
the time her sister came home. Hetty
i chattered like a magpie nnd sttpner
was a cay nlTalr! After a sociable
( washing up of the dishes the younger
I girl came up to her sister soberly. !
"I'm awfully sorry, Sue. after what
you said—but you really didn't say 1
mustn't mention it to him. nnd I was
just coming out of the shop loaded
with the cake nnd all nnd I bumped
right into him! And before I thought,
! I congratulated him."
j "What—who—Hetty?"
"Poctor Delnharre, of course," said
Betty. "And he's coming up this eve
ning. I hope—there's the hell! Jack!".
Joyfully she (lew to answer.
While Sue—well. Sue was trembling
f from 'head to foot. Wlmt would he
think! She must get Betty to make
her excuses if be came. She could not
see him.
Hut she had no choice. It was Poc
tor Delaharre, not Jack, whom Itetty
found at the door, although Jack was
almost at the steps. And Hetty, be
cause she wanted her moment with
Jack, sent Poctor Delabnrre in alone.
Sue's moment of reckoning had
come.- The doctor entered quickly,
both hands outstretched.
".Miss Reynolds—Sue!" he cried.
"I'm enough of nn old fellow to know
that In some way .Miss Betty mixed
things up. Hut bless her for It I It
has made me dare to come nnd tell you
what has been In my heart for days.
I love you, dear. Po you care—ever I
so little?"
And Sue, whose first thought had
been to run nnd hide her head, hid II
| In the place she would least hnvi
dreamed of—the doctor's substantia)
shuulder.
