Copyright.] 1 To-Day's Short Story. THE MYSTERIOUS HAND By Frederick R. Burton Come and see me, Mr. Craft. I'm a, pecu- liar fellow, but I believe you and I would get on together first rate." "I suppose we all have our peculiaritiee, Mr. Holden," responded Craft, politely, "and I assure you that I should lika to extend our acquaintance and shall be glad to call on you at your convenience." "Oh! as to that," said Holden, "come any time. You will be welcome at any hour you see fit to call between midnight and mid- night." This short conversation at the end of a long session in Archie Taylor's room at the Adams House. Half a dozen men were pre- sent, all friends of Taylor, and the evening had passed in desultory conversation while they smoked Taylor'3 foreign tobacco and sipped his imported beer, until midnight had come and passed. A clock in a neighbouring church struck one as Craft issued from the hotel. It was about a half-hour later when he stood at the door of his lodging-house vainly search- ing through his pockets for his latchkey. The bell-pull was out of order, so that there was no arousing the people in the house without beating the door and thus stirring up the entire neighbourhood. Craft shrank from such a proceeding, and philosophically decided to put in the night at a hotel. Then it struck him that in running throug-h his DOckets for his keys he had not felt any coins; and with mild consternation he re- membered that before going to call on Tay- 7or he had changed his olothes and forgotten tJ transfer such trifles as keys and cash to the suit lie now had on. Here he was, then, at half-past one of a chilly morning, penni- less and homeless. So he retraced his steps towards the Adams House, wholly confident that his word would be good for a lodging there. On the way his eye caught the number "251" on the doorpoet of a house. "Why! that's Holden's number," Graft reflected; and then, "Ilia street, too. Then this is where he lives. Wonder I hadn't j thought of it before. I believe I'll take him at his word, for I certainly want very much to see any man just row who will give me the use ci a bed on couch for the rest of the night." Craft went up the steps and rang the bell. After a minute's waiting an elderly man, clad in a nightgown, stood before him, blink- ing sleepily and holding one hand before the ilame of a candle that he carried in the othe r. "I beg your pardon," said Craft, hastily; "I believe Mr. Holden lives y es, he lives here," interrupted the other, "but he ain't in yet. I suppose you'll wait for him." "I should like to." Without further words the elderly man stanp^d aside, and when Craft had entered closed the outsLde door and opened another leading to a large front room. There the eld fellow lit a gas jet from his candle and silently retired. It was a luxuriously-» ftiriiieh,e.d chamber, containing about every- thing required for a man's comfort, except a, cooking~-stove and kitchen, utensils. The j visitor selected the easiest chair, the moet interesting magazine, the best light, and settled himself to kill time agreeably until Holden should arrive. Before long Croft realised uiat tie d<! exceedingly drowsy. He laid down the magazine and looked longingly at the bed. It was too tempting to be resisted, and, mindful of Holden a emphatic invitation, Crait disrobed and got in. He had the rather absurd habit of carrying a revolver. This was the dne article he had transferred to his clothing, and something impelled him to o' dace it beneath his pillow. He fell asleep immediately, and when he awoke- it was daylight. After the first confused moment he remembered where he was and how he came there. The regular tenant evidently had not returned; at all events, the chamber was not graced by his presence. Craft was about to leave the bed when ho became .aware that a door was being opened very cautiously. It was one of a pair of folding doors that QlPCned probably: ursotn another chamber. Maybe, Holdfn had returned, ceen his new friend asleep, and ix)litely occupied the adjoining room. Craft was on the point of speaking out to warn his hor-t that there was no need of rpov-iqg quietly, bat his words stuck in his throat, and the creepy sensation, became highly pro- nounced; for a. hand appeared just beyond the edge of the door. A hand and a part of the wrist; the fingers seemed to be grasp- ing at an invisible object, and presently the hand moved up and down, and the palm was kept outward. What could it mean? Craft lav motionless, staring, and after a moment the hand disappeared and the door was closed noiselessly Then Craft sat up and carefully reached for his revolver. It was where he had placed it and ready for use. Was this thing, this mysterious gesturing hand, a warning. What terrible secret, what horrible machi- nations might it not reveal? Craft was not gifted with a fanciful imagination, but he was in his full senses, and tlia/t I', la,lad was as real as it was mysterious. There it came again! The door was opening softly, the hand was waving more wildly than before. Craft raised his revolver, startled to observe that, as he aimed, his own hamd trembled mightily. That other hand was flesh and blood, but it might not mean him injury, and so he hesitr.ted to fire. ,"J¡ile he hesitated the hand was again withdrawn. If this is running on, the traditional third time never faH6," thought Craft; 111 be ready for it." Accordingly he crept from bed and jressed, placing his revolver on a table where he could grasp it quickly, and moving as as pot-Eible. Just as he had finished dressing, the door through which he had entered the chamber opened. Craft seized the weapon, swung about, and found himself facing the astonished Holden. The latter took one gigantio leap directly a.t the visitor, and with a display of tremendous muscular energy wrested the revolver from Craft's hand. I'm glad to see you," said Holden, then; but, I cay, I docnt quite faacy being shot as an intruder into my own chamber." Craft was all of a tremble. I suppose it's all right," he stammered, but what the mischief was that infernal hand waving at me for?" "Hand? Hand?" queried Holden, mystified. "Prom the folding door? Oh! Wait a, minute." ,He -went into the adjoining room and returned a moment later, smiling. If I'd any idea, you were going to come j so soon," he said, I'd have postponed my nocturnal ramble along the wharves. My valet occupies the next room. He does every- thing for me, and this morning he tried to discover whet,her the temperature of this room was what it should be. Knowing a guest was here, he didn't venture to come in, but he tested the <atmosphere by thru-sting in his h?nd. He's an elderly chan and I suppose his hand looked rather ghostly. 11f the air had felt cold he would have thrown the folding doors open. It seemed all right, and so he left them closed. Hope he didn't disturb you in any other way. It reminds me of A little adventure I had in India"; and the eccentric hest proceeded to a. nta-rration in a manner that convinced Craft tnat he had done well in accepting his new friend's hospitable invita,ticn literally.
MR. MEREDITH AND WALES
MR. MEREDITH AND WALES Mr. George Meredith has sent the following letter to the Liverpool Committee for Exca- Tation and Researches in Wales and the Marches: — Researches that may even chance to thwvw some light on the period of the Roman occupation of Brita.in would be of priceless value to our national history and a refresh- ment to Welshmen. We cannot hope to know in what degree Roman civilisation affeeted the minds and put a polish on the bearing of the primitive people. It may well have been to an extent sufficient to justify a belief in the real foundation of the legends and I poems that have come to us, showing a spirit of courteousness and chivalry in striking comtrast with the barbarism of the subse- quent invaders But any effort is worth the cost that we l may know more than we do at present. The Liverpool Committee for Research has under- taken a work deserving the support of the nat.ion-I n.eed hardly say of Wales. GEORGE MEREDITH." I

I For Women Folk. I HOMELY HINTS AND DAINTY DISHES I When cutting bread and butter during cold weather, stand the butter-plate over a basin of hot water; this will soften it. To remove ink sta,ins from linen saturate the stains with pure glycerine. Let this re- main on for 24 hours, then wash out the stains in very hot water. If the key of the gas meter is turned off a little way until all gas jets burning in the house do not flare, you will save a good ma.ny shillings in your gas bill. You will also get more light thnn when the pressure is so high, for when the gas roars it is only wasting. Shortbread I Quarter pound of flour, 2joz. of butter, loz of castor .sugar; rub the butter into the Hour, add the sugar, and mix well together. Flour a Qoard and turn the paste on to it and knead it well, then roll it out pretty thin, cut it into oval shapes, place them on greased tin, then bake till a pale brown. Potato Pancakes Grate into colander six large raw potatoes, add two eggs, ,:l¡ little salt and pepper, and a. small quantity of parsley and onions very finely chopped.

Nervous Dyspepsia. I A most distressing form of Indiges- tion. How a busy Man was cured by the Tonic Treatment of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. H is generally admitted by all who know Mr Walter P. Rider, the cheery horsebreeder and trainer, of 618, Wandsworth-road, South Lambeth, S.E.. that few people can tell him much that he does not already know about his profession. In conversation with a journalist recently, Mr. Rider narrated some I interesting details of his dealings with all eorts and conditions of men. Then h6 added: I A recent experience of mine should be a real warning to anyone who happens to be suffering from Indigestion or Debility. "Ten months ago I could enjoy and digest any food placed before me, but a change came over me My meals were left untouched; or if I partook of only a little food, pains in the chest like the stab of sharp spurs made me gasp for breath." Mr. Eider continued" Even a, cup of tea! disagreed with me aind caused the most pain- ful fla-totemce. Sometimes, when njctkiug an attempt to teag a meal I would come over so faint and giddy at table that I would have to ?? S ?  v Cut in any weaiher, I fre- quently caught severe chill wa.lk away into the open air for relief. But being out in any weather helped to aggravate my sufferings, for I frequently caught severe chills. "Once in the grip of indiges- t i o ii my troubles In- creased, and tho nervous disorders that had undoub- tedly set up the mischief now became pronounced. "A bitter acrid taste would rise from my stomach after the smallest morsel of food. I became more and more troubled with Indiges.tion until my chest and shoulders were sore with pain, and I felt so weak and weary that life was a misery. Then my nerves broke down; I was startled by the least sound, and the exertion of a short walk left me worn and exhausted. I suffered with such severe headaches that I often had to throw myself on the sofa, and remain there in the most excruciating pains for hours. "My face looked haggard and drawn, end friends remarked upon my bloodless appear- ance. Often I could not bend my back without great agony. Such was my state when I read of a wonderful sure of Indigestion and Debility by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. As an experi- ment I bought a supply of these pills and commenced taking' them. After the first box my strength began to mend and there was great improvement in my appetite. Gradu- ally I was able to take a full meal of solid food without discomfort and I re-gained flesh and colour. My veins began to tingle with new blood as I persevered with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and then I lost all sense of nervousness and rapidly became well. 1 now enjoy perfect health, thanks entirely to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People." AND THOUSANDS SAY SO. When the digestive organs become weak they can only be restored to healthy activity by Rich Red Blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills supply New Good Blood, tone up the stomach, steady the nerves, and thus fortify the whole system. These pills have cured not only Indigestion, but Anaemia, Palpitations, Influenza and its After-Effects, Eczema, Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sciatica, St. Vitus' Dance, and Paralysis; alao Ladies' Ailments. Ask for the genuine pills, always la.belled Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People.

"What has become of that cake, Bertie?" inquired Mrs. Jones sternly. Oh, I took it to give to a poor boy," explained Bertie meekly. 'I "That was very nice of you, my dear," sajd" his approving mother. "And," continued Bertie, "I couldn't find any poor boy, so I had to ea-t it myself." MERELY THAT. "You advertised that yon had fo?md a !}ur*" I beti?vc?" the visitor .said to the man who had come to the door in answer to his ring. I "I did." "You say it contained a very large sum of money?" "Yes." "And that the owner oould have sane by naming the sum found and describing the purse ?" "Yes; go on." "That is all I wished to ask." "But you will have to give a descriptdon of the purse you lost before yon can put in a claim." "I lost no purse." "You didn't? Then why have you called?" "Merely to see what sort of a man it is who will find a very large sum of money andfthen advertise the fact in the papers instead of puttiD* it safely away. Good day, sir."

I Football in France I
Football in France I MONMOUTHSHIREV STADE FRANCAiS A Rugby football match was played at Paris on Thursday between Monmouthshire and the Stade Francais (Racing Club). The Welshmen won by two goals and one try (thirteen points) to two tries (six points). About fifteen hundred people witnessed the game, which was generally considered to have been the best of the Paris season. The Stade'a defence was very good. As regards their attack, one of the tries scored by Varielle was the result of a par- ticularly brilliant pieoe of work. Varielle dribbled the ball diagonally across the ground, beat the Welsh back, and got over. Mr. Hadley, of London, acted as referee.— Keuter. The teams were:- Monmouth County: Back, W. Haley (Pill Harriers); three-quarter backs—right wing S H. Williams (Newport), right centre Alf James (Pontnewydd), left centre J. P. Jones (Pontypool), and left wing W. Bowen (Abertil- lery) half-backs, T. H. Vile (Newport) and W. J. Martin (Newport); forwards, G. Travers (ca,ptain) (Pill Harriers), W. H. Dowell (Pontypool). J. Webb (Abertillery), T. Dykes (Abertillery), E. Wllliams, (Pontnewydd), J. Jone3 (Cwmbran), R. Thomas (Pontypool), and J. Foley (Brynmawr); and reserve, J. Howells (Elaina). Stade Francais: Back, J.

I LADY'S PECULIAR CLAIM
LADY'S PECULIAR CLAIM An action for alleged libel, arising out cf an entry in Burke's Pc-erage, Baronetage, and Knightage," came before the King's Bench Division c Thursday. The plaintiff was Mrs. Jane Teresa Louisa Perceval, wife of Mon- tagu William Cairns Perceval, and the defendant Ifr. Ashworth Peter Burke, who carries on business as a publisher at 45, Pall Mall. The plaintiff claimed damages for alleged libel contained in the 1907 edition of "Burke's Peerage" and in two letters from the defen- dant. The plaintiff also asked for an injunc- tion restraining the defendant from further publication of the alleged libel, which had reference to Mrs. Perceva.1 s marriage. The plaintiff pleaded that the entries complained of would lead a reader to suppose that she had never been the wife of Montagu William Cairns Perceval. On the other hand, the defendant pleaded that the words in the entries were incapable of the meaning sug- gested, or that they bore a defamatory meaning. His lord-ship in the end held that there was no case to go to the jury, and entered judg- ment for the defendant. ?'  -—
HYPNOTISED BY A GIPSY
HYPNOTISED BY A GIPSY Jeane Itaric Henard was a good little boy of fifteen summers, and employed as "groom" or "buttons" at a Lyons bank, Paris. To his misfortune, he saw and fell straightway in love with a gipsy named Elvira Gonzales, who hypnotised him with her big black eyes. Elvira persuaded Jean Marie to forge a cheque for 50,0C0 francs (£2,000), which he presented at the Banquo Populaire without arousing suspicion. Jean Marie made feve- rish preparations to fly with his love to Spain. He spent L80 in buying travelling necessaries, and handed the rest to his gitana. At the station, when Jean Marie with all the luggage was safely ensconced in the Paris express, Elvira jumped into the Mar- nelles express which was just leaving, and was seen no more. The heartbroken Jean Marie, hutigry, and penniless, was arrested in Paris yesterday. Elvira, with the money, is probably far away. I
