When she went to the window again the woman looked out and saw her husband coming. In the wave of Joy that surged over her she did not no tice that he looked old and hopeless and broken and bent and that there ^ people whether they should be repaired or removed, but nothing was definitely settled on this point. Next was the i paying of Charles Moles, the architect, for drawing plans for the escapes and 1 other parts of the school. His bill was $75, and the people ordered that it be paid.

But for all the shadow that hung over the home there was a Christmas tree, and the Anstruther babies were happy. Their convict father played the (role of-Sunta Claus. Their mother laughed and sang, though now and then her voice broke and her eyes were wet with tears. A few neighbors call ed full of sympathy and yet timid about showing It. All the little town felt that It was best to let the stricken family enjoy their Christmas cheer without Intrusion even on the part of those who loved and respected them.

John Anstruther went to his room to look over his papers. In the drawer lie suddenly found something that made his heart leap. It was a revolver. He took tbe shin ing, cruel thing In his hands, and u sort of madness came over him. Here was his oiYKirtunlty. Here was escape from the stri|ies, the dark cell, the Ig nominy of prison life. Here was pro vision for Grace and his babes. His $20,000 life Insurance still was In force, and he knew well that It was nonfor feitable even In case of suicide.

No doubt jnen of commanding genius are still with us, but they are not more numerous or more original than in former times. What then is flic peculiar ity that has produced aucli great re sults? In my opinion what has been j accomplished is due in great part to the spread of higher education, i which has evolved an \army of com- j petent investigators possessing en- I thusiasm for research which now, j for the first time, is led into useful paths by the few great minds, whose j powers thus receive a wider range ! and become more productive.
