While -clambering about the cliffs. Ford and Brasch dropped on to a ledge from which they could not return. Foaming breakers heat against the wall and dashed spray over the young climbers.

She showed great reasoning power In her review of the story. Mrs.

Madden Is fearless and clearly shows she has the strength of her own convictions.

"The world that lies beyond is saying such strange, shocking things, they are talking in such loud voices of subjects that ate not well, not proper to discuss here In our simple and innocent diversions.

Practically every case of consumption might have been cured If hope had been maintained and proper treatment had been resorted to at the first symptom of the disease. Until the advanced stage is reached consumption is curable.

Besides there Is one hole that apparently was made liv forcing a sharp instrument through the cloth. How Came They There? These rents are going to play an Important part in the trial. Possibly the claim may be sot up that Conboy Vfinil Lagan engaged In a struggle before the shot that killed Lagan was fired. But if the cuts were made since the shooting tho struggle theory is a bullity. How did these rents get Into the coat? This question has stirred the District Atwrnev's office and may result in an investigation at tho proper time.
