The next instant he and his burden were snatched from the icy waters, and then remembrance left him. When his senses returned, he was lying, warm and comfortable, in a snug berth on board the Grenelle. As in a dream he saw kind faces about him and heard Maurice Dupont’s voice: “Sandoff, my dear fellow, you are safe now. The yacht is already under way. We are bound for France. It was providence that guided us when we started out to search for you in the other boat. We arrived just in time—but too late to save your companion. The brave fellow had gone down.” Sandoff made an effort to rise. “Vera, where is she?” he asked. “Safe, my dear fellow, safe and well. You will see her tomorrow.” Sandoff smiled and his eyes closed. He was sleeping peacefully. * * * * * Toward the end of the following June the Grenelle entered the harbor of Marseilles, and Sandoff and Vera journeyed by rail to Paris, accompanied by Maurice Dupont. But little more remains to be told. Vera and Sandoff were married in Paris, where both had friends, and the honeymoon was spent in Maurice Dupont’s villa at Asnieres. They will never return to Russia, nor have they any desire to do so. They live happily in their adopted country, but if they are spared to the extreme limit of old age they can never forget the terrible adventures they shared together when escaping from the mines of Kara, or that memorable night off the Siberian coast when poor Felix Shamarin lost his life in the sea he toiled so hard to reach. EDITORIAL ETCHINGS. FROM WEEKLY TO MAGAZINE. In the issue of the 18th of August, MUNSEY’S WEEKLY announced that thereafter that publication would be issued monthly and in magazine form, instead of weekly, and that the name would accordingly be changed to MUNSEY’S MAGAZINE. This departure has been made in the belief that the MAGAZINE will furnish broader scope for serious work than the WEEKLY, that its ample pages and higher grade of art will remove it to a more desirable distance from the daily press, which with its illustrations and its great Sunday issues has, to a very great extent, usurped the position once held by the illustrated weekly journals of this country. Now that the transition from WEEKLY to MAGAZINE is accomplished it will be the purpose of the management to make MUNSEY’S MAGAZINE a publication of the best grade—one that shall be strong in illustration, instructive in its heavier articles and entertaining in its fiction. Life is a necessary condition of growth, and as we now have life so shall growth follow—growth in everything that goes to round out a magazine in whatever approaches the ideal.
