PRICELESS family photographs
letters and keepsakes are not the
least valuable of the family belong-
ings and once destroyed by fire flood
or thieves never can be replaced.
Besides protecting your papers and other valuables from
fire and thieves our Sate Deposit Uoxcs provide abso-
lute privacy because they are fitted with Yale Locks.
These Locks have a double- mechanism that requires
the use of two different keys. You have one key and
we hold the other. Both must be used at the same time.

with no one to talk to 1 spent (he time
thus till 10 o'clock when 1 closed my
book nnd puflhcil back my chnlr pre-
paratory to going to toy room nnd to
bed.
JiWt ni I did no t raw on the 'white
wall before mo n tduulow of n figure.
The head and idiuuldfra only wero de-
fined and oven from these I could not
teil whether the person behind mo was
uinu or Avomnn I not looking nt it be-

mo that either the face or tho back wan
turned directly toward inc. That which
I noticed especially wiih that whllo ono
car rant n idindow the other did noL I
was speculating how this could be
when I saw tho shadow of nn firm
slowly raised. In tho hand was some-
thing either club or knife.
I did not stop to consider whether 1
was about to make myself ridiculous; 1
Instinctively ducked under tho tabic.
Theru I remnlned a few minutes nnd
hearing no sound peeped from under
tho cloth Seeing no ono 1 slowly
crawled out. keeping nn eyo open for
any one who inlslit bo laying for mo.
Orndunlly straightening up 1 stood nnd
looked about me Tho shadow had
lNappoared; 1 was alono. Looking
downward 1 saw something rod on my
trousers I put my hand on It. It was
wet. there was a silt In tho cloth. I
pulled up my trousers nnd snw thnt
tho calf of my leg had been silt by
sumo sharp Instrument Tho -wound
was still bleciUug
I had n problem to decide nnd quick
ly Some one hnd Intended to mur-
der me doubtless with n view to np-
proprlatlnc my effects but tho attempt
hnd been foiled by my quick duck. I
was still In danger Whnt should I do?
Oo out Into the darkness or remain
where 1 was? 1 decided that my best
chance was to pretend to Ih undis-

which wns In my mom.
"Landlord!" 1 cnllc(L.-"A Dght. 1

"SI. senor" and ho brought mo a

"Uldlculous! Yes. certainly."
"Well good night."
My first act on reaching my room
was to lock tho door the second to ex-
amine my wound It was somo two
Inches lone nnd about u quarter of tin
Inch deep.
After deliberation I concluded to re-
main where I was till morulnir. Quito
possibly tho would bo murderer was
unaware that ho had cut me. nnd the
landlord might have been deceived by
my story of-'n dream 'i kept nwake
all night with my revolver cocked In
my hand. In tho mornlug I mussed

sounds us ono would make In dressing
I softly opened my door and looked
carefully out Into tho hall Seeing no
enemy 1 went downstnlra. Ilenssured
at tho ordinary nppearonco of thoso
getting breakfast. I determined to
keep up my simulation nnd taking a
seat at tho breakfast tnble with my
back to tho wall whero I had heen the
shadow. I deliberately partook of the
meal then went ouL pnltl my bill and
