By ChoriM Dickens COPtNIGHT. 1t43. NKA tRRVICI. INC THE STORY: chemist and university professor, iias concluded a bargain with a phantom whereby he can forget his past unhappiness and make other ple forget theirs. He is surpiscd when the Tetterbys start quarreling at his approach.

He goes to visit one of his sttidcnts who he has heard is sick. CHAPTER VIII Redlaw put out his arm. "Don't come nearer to me. I will sit liere. Remain you, where you are!" He sat down on a chair near the door.

"I heard, by an accident, by what accident is no matter, that one of my class was ill and solitary. I received no other description of him than thav he lived in this street. BegmniUR my inquiries at the first house in it I have found him." "I have been ill, sir," returned the student, not merely with a kind of awe of him, "but am greatly better. An attack of fever of the brain, I believe has weakend me, but I am much better, I cannot say I have been solitary in my illness, or 1 should forget hand that has been near me." "You are speaking of the keeper's wife," said Redlaw. "Yes." The student bent his head, as if he rendered her some silent homage.

The Chemist, in whom there was a cold, monotonous apathy, glanced at the student leaning with his hand upon the couch. "I remembered your name," he said, "when it was mentioned to me downstairs just now and I recollect your face. We have held but very little personal communication together?" "Very little." "You have retired drawn from me, more than any of the rest, I think?" The student signified assent. "And why?" said the Chemist; not with the leasi expression of interest, but with a moody, wayward kind of curiosity. "Why?" for the first time took the purse, and turned him by the arm, and looked him in tlie face.

"There is sorrow and trouble in sickness, is there not?" he demanded, with a iaugh. The wondering student answered, "Yes." "In its unrest, in its anixety, in its suspense, in all its train of physical and mental miseries?" said the Chemist, with a wild unearthly exultation. "All best forgotten, are they not?" The student did not answer, but again passed his hand, confusedly, across his forehead. Redlaw still held him by the sleeve, when Milly's voice was heard outside. Redlaw released his hold, as he listened.

"Of all the visitors who could come here," he said, in a hoarse alarmed voice, turning to his companion, "this is the one 1 should desire to avoid. Hide me!" The student opened a frail door in the wall, communicating with small inner room. Hedlaw passed in hastily shut It after him.

You know my secret!" "Secret?" said the Chemist harshly. "I know?" "But, Mr, Redlaw," said the student, "as a just man, and a good man, think how innocent am except in name and descent of participation in any wrong in- llicted on you, or in any sorrow you have borne." said Redlaw, iaugh ing. "Wrong! What are those to me?" "For heaven's sake," entreated the shrinking student, "do not let the mere interchange of a tew words with me change you like this, Sir! Let me pass again from knowledge and noticed.

Let me occupy my old reserved and distant place among those whom you instruct. Know me only by the name I have assumed, and not by that of exclaimed the other. "The name my mother bears Sir," faltered the young man "the name she took, when she might, perhaps, have taken one more honored," Redlaw, unmoved, unchanged and looking at him with a star ing frown answei-ed by no word or sign. Redlaw," said the student faintly, "what I would have said I have said ill, for my strength is strange to me as yet; but for anything unworthy in this fraud of mine, forgive me, ami for all the rest forget me!"

FIRE-RESISTANT CHRISTMAS TREE FORMULA NAMED CHICAGO, Dec. 17 National Safety Council warned today against using candles on Christmas trees this year. companies, the council said, are" swamped with orders for Christmas tree candles for first tfi shortages in light cords and bulbs for tree lighting and because some sections of the country are conserving electric power for war production. Using lighted candles on Christmas trees is one of the nation's most dangerous holiday customs, the council asserted. Even electric lighting is dangerous unless equipment is in good condition, the council explained, because Christmas trees contain resinous substances which are easily ignited.

Trees may be made fire-resistant, although not entirely fireproof, by the following process offered by the council and recommended by the U. S. De- pai-tment of Agriculture: Divide the weight of the tree by four and buy the resulting number of pounds of ammonium sulfate or calcium chloride. Dissolve the chemical in water, using one and a half pints per pound. Saw off the tree stem an inch from the end and place the fresh stem upright 'in a jar or pail of the solution in a cool place away from direct sunlight.

The tree gradually will absorb the moisture.
