"Are there many people in tno

That Shu read Into my qti'-stlon
Its real meaning was apparent In ln;r
reply- , , .
"Not no very many, she said
slowly, "and 'l.cy urn all very quiet
and very nice. They won't disturb

man and his wife have the whole

are away all day and never have
much company, while the top floor
has fivo people two awfully nice
young men in the front room, who
are gone nil day, and the other three
small rooms each baa a woman,
but they're mostly sway."
Her voice had been most convinc
ing I was sure even to herself
until she came to the last cards In
her verbal index. Then it ran down
like an unwound clock, and she
peered furtively nt me. She was too
honest to be a good dissembler and
I Jotted down in my mental note
book the palpable fact that she sus
pected one of the three women upon
the top floor of being the one who
had looked in upon me.
Curiously enough, her very hesi
tation took away from me every
vestige of the fantastic fear which
had been mine. There was so plaus
ible an explanation now cf the open
ing and closing door that I scored
myself severely for not having
thought of it before. I knew enough
of the cramped, lonely existence led
by women with no business to rea
lize that occasionally a weaker sis
ter among them addod a little vari
ety to her life by peeping and pry
ing into the affairs of other people.
No doubt one of them had stolen
down the stairs, gratified her curi
osity by a look at me. and then van-
overwhelmingly outweighed so petty
an annoyance as this even If It
should be repeated.
A relieved look flashed over her
face.
"I'll see that It doesn't happen
again," she said. "But you know
w hat children are."
I preserved the fiction of the
grandchildren with a comprehending
nod. and as she let me out of the
door I heard her draw a deep breath
and guessed that she was glad In
deed to have managed so satisfac
torily an embarrassing situation.
It was with the distinct proprie
tary feeling which every woman
cherishes toward a prospective new
home, that I scanned the building
closely from the vantage point of
a spot, across the drive where I
waited for the downtown bits. Tt
had been an Imposing structure in
its day and was still handsome with
its recessed windows and Its heavy,
exquisitely carved iron grille. With
the penchant for romantic specula
tion about old buildings, concerning
which Picky teases me so much. I
began to sketch mental pictures of
the, people who had planned and
built the beautiful home, who had
lived and died In It, and whose heirs
were now content to see it turned
Into apartments.
Basement, first floor, second floor,
third, fourth I counted the win
dows, mentally contrasting the space
which had housed three people and
their servants and was now given
ove- to so many. The windows were
all correctly, if plainly, curtained.
and the shades were drawn at the
same halfway point In every one.
Rut as my -cs lifted .o the fourth
floor I distinctly saw the drawing
back of the curtain and knew some
one was watching me.

Man's ficht against disease Is .
j strikingly illustrated by his con
quest of Malta fever. It formerly ,
! was a scourge In Malta, particii- 1
j larly among the British troops sta- j
; t!ond there. Malta fever really Is j
a widespread disease, although :
called by a local came. (
The British had held Malta j
since the beginning of last century, i
and. although much attention had !
been given to the fever because
some 050 Brilsh soldiers fell vie-
tlms to it. no advance was made I
toward Ps prevention until 1S87,
when the living germ, the micro
coccus melitcnsis, causing it was
discovered.
Experiments had been made
wdth the object of finding out. If I
the goat, among other animals, j
was susceptible to the 'disease. The !
goats in Ma.lfa supplied all the j
milk. Several goats had been in- j
ect" with cultures of the micro- i
coccus, which causes the disease.
but, as they showed no rise of j
temperature nor any signs what- I
ever of Ill-health, they wire put
aside as being Immune or re-frac-
tory to the disease and nothing
more was thought about them.
In the spring of 1905, about sir.
months ol'ler these experiments

long drawn out period of fever and
other disagreeable symptoms. While
the death rate Is usually low, the
disease lasts so long that It almost
wears out one's patience. It is also
a v-ry heavy tax on one's vital
forces. The average duration of
