Tillsonburg Votes Strongly For Municipal Ownership Tb* Waterwork. Bylaw O^nrtete- _ _________Only M Voted Advcnoly—Si(naJ Victory for Mayor We.ton and Hi. Council. a •th, no un/ Monday ly 34 Tillsonburg ratepayers wi...__ certain sound pronounced in favor of municipal ownership last LL. when with an adverse vote of onL _. the bylaw providing for the purchase of the Tillsonburg waterworks system for $100,000 was adopted.' Ever since 1926 Mayor Weston and the council have been struggling with the question, which was precipitated by the demand of the Waterworks Company for an increase of 60 per cent, in the water rales. This was strenuously opposed by the council and the steps taken by our town fathers leading up to the sub mission of the bylaw are quite familiar to our readers. There was ne organized effort* either for or against the by-law. but the ques tion was fully discussed through the columns of The News, and at the pub lic meeting held on Tuesday evening of last week. An effort was made to get out the vote, however, and as a result probably the largest vote -ever polled for a by-law alone wa* recorded. The by-law authorizes the purchase of the Tillsonburg Waterworks system for $100,000. under the Public Utiltic* Act. for which debentures will be is sued for thirty years. The control and management of the system under the terms of the by-law will be entrusted to the commission heretofore called the Hydro-Electric Commission, and will hereafter be called the Public Utilities Commission of the Town of Tillson burg, which will continue to control and manage the public utility for the supply of electrical power and energy for the Town of Tillsonburg as here tofore, as well as the public utility for the supply of water for domestic use. The Hydro-Electric system has proved a great success in the past, and we have no reason to doubt that the waterworks system will prove equally successful under the new management. The vote in detail last Monday was as follows: North Ward South Ward East Ward West Ward For 86 98 150 168 Against 10 146 502 Majority for the by-law, 468.

Straffordville’* New Hall Suitably Opened Straffordville'* rejuvenated town hall was, re-opened on Wednesday evening with greateclat. Invitations had been extended to ex-reeves, ex councillors, and various others in local and neighboring municipalities. 4nd the place was comfortably fiUed when the hour of opening arrived. Mr. H. F. Johnston, of The Tillsonburg News, was asked to officiate as chair man. and associated with him on the platform were the members of the Bayham council. Clerk Benj. Brian, and others. After a few introductory remarks, in which the councillors were con gratulated upon the result of their effiorts in beautifying their place of meeting, he called upon Reeve God win. who greeted the guests and com mented upon the improvement* that had been made. , Then followed in succession ex- Recvcs David Stratton, William Grant, J. A. Jackson, Alfred Nevill. S. S. Clutton and William Backhouse, the two latter being the veterans, and who vividly recalled memories of by-gone days of long ago; Reeve Maguire of Houghton. J. P. Coombc, clerk of Vienna; E. G Montieth, editor of the Aylmer Express: L. S. Johnson, ex councillor, B. Brian, the veteran town ship clerk. T. E. Chalk of Aylmer. Blake Miller. M.P.P., and John L Stansell. cx-M.P, all of whom spoke words of congratulation and pr^jse for the transformation that had taken place in the old halL The speeches were interspersed with recitations by Archie Johnson, the young son of Mr. and Mrs. L. S. J oh son, who gives promise of mak ing his mark as an elocutionist; solo by Catharine Lang, a young lass of Richmond, who ha* a pleasing voice and acquitted herself with great credit; duet by Messrs. Galbraith and Allan, which merited an encore and created much merriment. Excellent music was rendered by the Richmond orchestra throughout the evening, and also provided musk foe the dancing that followed the programme. The enterprising council and town ship clerk are deserving of the con gratulations and praise that were accorded them by the various speakers. It certainly took a great deal of courage and optimism to un dertake the work of rejuvenating the old hall, and the work was well car ried out by Clerk Brian and Council lor Coyle, under whose supervision it was done. Partitions have been re moved, a stage and dressing rooms constructed at the rear, the wall* and ceiling varnished and painted in pleas ing combination of color*, a new hard wood floor laid, the whole presenting a most attractive appearance, in strong contrast to the and repelling hall of former An up-to-date and efficient lighting system has been installed for natural gas, which is not the least of the improvement* made. The council and township officials are naturally proud of their hall a* it stands today, and well they may be, and wc feel confident that the rate payers of the township will heartily uphold the good work done by their representatives.

Warning to Motorists Grand Master at Brantford Brantford. Sept. 9.—Brantford Odd Fellows assembled this afternoon and paraded behind the Brantford Legion and Dufferin Rifles bands for the an nual decoration services at Mount hope and Greenwood cemeteries. Rev. Dr. W. H. Langton and Rev. G. W.r Moore officiated, while the oration was delivered by Grand Master A. S. Rennie, of Tillsonburg. who was intro duced by Bro. T. J. Kirkby. P.D.G.M. The attendance was large, the beauti ful day drawing out many hundreds of citizens. Two residents of our town had an experience one day recently while in Cleveland which should serve as a warning to other motorists. Having two or three hour* at their disposal before the ferry left, they decided to attend a theatre, and accordingly parked their car in a convenient street and locked it securely. On returning to their car they found one of the doors had been opened and two club bags containing valuable clothing and busi ness papers had been removed. A small wire and a nail were found which had been used to pick the lock open, which showed it to be the work of pro fessionals, who, the police say, are working in more cities than Cleveland.

TILLSONBURG Night ctfls promptly attended ta • It will be remembered that the Work- I men's Compensation Act of this Prov ince contains a clause authorizing in dustries In the various classes to set up accident prevention associations and the statement has been made by those in authority that the experience of the classes taking advantage of the act has been belter than that of the classes not organized for accident prevention work. Dealing with this phase of the situ ation. R. B. Morley, general manager of the Industrial Prevention Associ ations, states that about 75 per cent, of the death cases reported to the Work men's Compensation Board involved some money payment. In the last four years on which complete figures are available the number of death cases in the fifteen different classes included in the Industrial Accident Prevention As sociations has shown a steady decrease year by year, being 77—54—52 and 45. The pay-roll of the Associations is slightly more than half of the total pay-roll under compensation. 45 death cases in the classes included in that organization out of a total of 308 for all industries is indicative of improved conditions, particularly when it is re membered that the death cases repre sent approximately one-fourth of the total cost of compensation year by has prayed the Owen Sound highway rom Orchard to Durham with a ewly discovered dust layer, liquid ■Icium chloride, as an experiment, is efficiency is claimed to last for sex- ral months.

It may prove ansiderably cheaper to thus spray and laintain the highways, than to fre- uently spread gravel and drag; it will rrtainly insure more comfort for all. here arc other parts of the Provincial lighway system adjacent to Durham here the dust nuisance flourishes. On some of the county roads herc- bouts the scheme might be profitably ried out. Hall. OttcrviBe, August 27th. Mem bers aB present- Minutes of last reg ular meeting read and adopted.

Council adjourned to Oct. 1st o'clock.—M. Durkee. Clerk. Toronta Sept. 7.—Gasoline tax in Ontario next year will be five cents a gallon. Any lingering hope that the Government might stop at four cents is dispelled by Premier Ferguson. There has never been doubt, since an increase was decided upon, that it would be two cents, the prime minister The gas tax is statutory, the oresent levy having been imposed through legislation in 1925. and the proposed increase consequently will'be a matter of amendments to the Gasoline Tax Act in which the tax is specifically set forth as tree cents. On the other hand, the scale of fees for motor licenses, in which there is to be a cut by way of offset to the higher gas tax. is a matter of regulation, the Highway Traffic Act merely providing that there shall be “a fee." A previous reduction in license fees was made effective at the beginning of the calendar year, and it is con sidered likely that the higher gas tax will become effective either as of January 1. next or on November 1. the commencement of the fiscal year. The date could be fixed by order-in-coun cil, pending action of the Legislature in February or March.

Week in and week out. they contribute their budget of news which is the mirror of the daily happenings in their circle of activity. Without the correspondents' weekly news the paper would lie like a dinner with the meat dishes left out. and the community like a church service with the choir on holi days. Not only the citizens in the town where the paper is published find in terest in the doings of their country . cousins, but also every resident in the hamlet or village from where the budget comes is a devout consumer of the weekly news. Every little happen ing has its human interest The ar rival of the first-born, the marriage of a popular couple, the passing of a pion- ; eer, the home-coming of a favorite son or daughter, the coming and going of , visitors, the little incidents from week to week which, perhaps, have no out side bearing, are all of vital moment » and are important factors in the life of the community. i Truly country correspondents are in- . valuable in the functioning of a weekly newspaper, and we acknowledge with • gratitude the loyal and efficient service they are rendering ths family journal throughout the entire year."

According to these motorists, tourists will not stop when hailed unless they arc abso- lutely sure that some help is required of them. The fear that they arc going to be robbed causes them to increase their speed rather than stop when they see a stopped car. * One local man recently waited for one hour before someone stopped to help him and then he was successful only when he stopped immediately in front of a passing motorist.

Dear Frieng,—I am writing to you today to mention a very vital thing, but which is let go unnoticed by a great many people today, really most people. My decision is not to smoke cigarettes. No doubt you will wonder why I have come to this conclusion. What good will they do anyone? I shall answer my own question. They will never do anyone in the wide, wide world any good. What harm will they do any one? Tobacco in every form, but especially cigarettes and their smoke, contain powerful poisons. One of the worst of these is nicotine. These pri sons all work to hurt the health. After smoking for a lime one loses interest in hi* or her work. When the smoke is breathed in it hurts the delicate tis sues in the lungs. The memory is in jured to that they cannot remember anything at long as they othenvise would. The throat becomes very sore and this is not easily overcome. Often the eyesight becomes defective. Many people arc born with disabil ities or arc handicapped by accident or by illness. Let us to whom God has given good health, eyesight, and other blessings not injure them in this fool ish way. It is becoming very hard to (etilt, for tobacco is being grown in our own township and more and more are be ginning to smoke,' both men and women and even boys and girls, but if we do our best and ask God to help us we shall be able to resist, no matter what others may do. I am hoping that what I have said may prove a benefit to you. Yours truly, Lillian Chipps.

Samuel Liddlde, was fellow student at the Royal College of Music with’ Clara Butt. She lost sight of him for some years, and then happened to hear he jvas earning a precarious living as a hack pianist. He eagerly accepted an offer to play reg ularly for her when she was preparing for engagements. “You know. Miss Butt." he once declared to her, “your voice gets right into my fingers." He went home, her voice ringing in his cars. Next morning he started to write, and at three o’clock "Abide With Me,” as all the world knows it, was on song course, has paid the penalty of its popularity. As the author of this book justly remark*, there is cause for gratitude to Provi dence that one was not called upon to live next door to the lady who wrote Clara Butt: "I have never missed sing ing 'Abide With Me’ one single day since I first heard you sing iL" Probably Sullivan’s "Lost Chord" is the song next most closely associated with Dame Clara Butt. It was not written for her, but for Mrs. Ronalds a famous patron of music of a bygone social age. It was Queen Vfttoria’s favorite song. There is a tradition thai the manuscript of the song was buried with Mrs. Ronalds. This is wrong for, though the script was bequeathet by the composer to Mrs. Ronalds, it was in turn left.by her to Dame Butt, and in a beautiful binding is one of Madame Butt's most treasured posses sions.

Sept S.—The tenth an nual school fair for South Norwich Township, district number 10, was held in the Community Park at Otterville on Wednesday and from every point of view was a great success. The crowd was one of the largest ever in attendance and the day was all that could be desired. Practically every other year the day of the school fair has been rainy or otherwise miserable part or all of the day.

Guns to Rent—Guns to Sell Pow & Wilcox Hardware MASONIC BLOCK During the early forenoon exhibits ? poured in from all the school sections in the district and the vegetables, flowers, grain, cooking, sewing and draw-ing were attractively exhibited in the pavilion where they were later judged prior to being vicw-cd by the public. The poultry judging by the boys and girls was the first item on the program and after the contest was completed the judge gave an interest ing talk to the young folks, explain ing clearly how the birds should be judved and the correct .procedure of culling the flock. Following this was the stock judg ing contests and in this connection it is worthy of mention that Mrs. Lloyd Brough, teacher at Maple Dell School, coached the team in stock judging that captured first prize and two of them were girls. At noon the tables were laid and picnic lunch was enjoyed by the pupils. Immediately following the dinner public speaking and elocution con tests were listened to with a great deal of interest, the seniors taking Dart in the public speaking while the ,uniors gave recitations. Giarter Davis of Otterville was the winner of the Eaton Silver Cup for obtaining the highest number of points in the township. At two o'clock the parade of the schools commenced and it was indeed a pretty sight to see each school parade in the order of the number of the school section, each section bearing a banner proclaiming I its number and each school was dis tinctive in its manner of decoration. One school in which there were only eight or ten pupils, saw each one at tired in old fashioned costumes. In another school each girl was dressed in white middy and blue skirt, while the boys wore light blouses. Others wore wreaths or had their banner bearers decked out, and it was evident that the scholars were proud of their own school as they marched and later lustily gave their school yell Mr. McDowell, who took charge of the parade, drills, flag salute and sports without any previous notice, received congratulations in the man ner in which these were conducted. Following the flag salute and the Strathcona Drill, in which all the schools took |>art, there was a singing contest which was judged by Mrs. Martin Haley and Mrs. A. M. Roberts. Springford school, singing "Hearts of Oak," won first prize, and Otterville captured second with "Come to Fair." Gaillardia—Myfrtlc Kent, Cook. Gifford Rachar, Olive, Mervin Hicks.

Then came an exciting hour sports, running races for all three-legged races, a boot and race and ’ _ which created considerable amuse ment, not forgetting the trustees' race in which Joseph Parker captured first prize, he being the only contestant. The teachers race was easily won by W. H. Law as he was likewise with out a rival. The first, second and third prize winners in the sports each received ribbons. At three o'clock the pavilion was opened. All exhibits were of an ex ceptionally fine order lhe grain and vegetables were South Norwich's choicest specimens and the potatoes especially, some of which were the finest "ever seen in lhe township. The flowers were very attractively display ed and were plentiful as no frosts have yet visited the gardens. The cooking and baking appeared to be appetizing and if the school lunch boxes were examples of what is usually eaten, there should be no cases of malnutri tion among the scholars. Specimens of sewing in hand work.- machine made, darning and embroidery work were worthy of the attractions they created. Altogether it was one of the finest school fairs put on by South Norwich.

There had . been warning signs of her awakening be fore it came, and Searle and Old Sue were prepared for it accordingly. Old Sue slipped a strong, skilled arm under her head, and gently raised her, while with the other hand she held much- needed nourishment to her lips. “Drink dis, honey," she said sooth ingly. “’fore ever you talks one word. Tain’t no med'ein', dearie. Yes, yes; I knows dat you wants to-know all about where you is, and dat," she went on, answering the wondering eyes. "Drink it down, honcybird, and I'll answer you.” Helen drank what was offered her willingly enough, though feebly. “What ails me?" she asked faintly, as she sank back upon the pillow. "Where am 1?" Then as Searle came forward to answer her, "And who is this?" "Your doctor," he answered, very gently, then as she glanced at bue, "this is your nurse. You have been ill, you know,” he went on, watching her attentively. "Have you forgotten?" Her face was all a blank, as of ex treme bewilderment. Her eyes roved round and round the > little :abin, gathering fresh surprise at every glance. “Ill I” she repeated, but her voice wa* a mere whisper, weak and low. “Why, yes—I feel—as if I had been ill indeed. But this place—it is like a ship—" A sudden flash, as of comprehension, came in to her eyes—a sudden flush of hectic crimson dyed her check; the doctor saw and understood the danger signal, and quickly placed an opiate to her lips. "Take this," he said, in that tone and with that air of calm authority to which sickness and weakness will al ways yield. Then, as she unquestion ingly obeyed him, "Yes—you arc on a ship—Bertie's ship.”." His voice sank lower with those Jast words' so that Sue might not hear them—he watched Helen's face, too, in some anxiety, ana even alarm, for she had evidently not yet thought of her dead babe, and his words were likely to recall the memory of her position and her loss, perhaps with gravest results; therefore he anxious ly watched the effect of his own words, and it was such as utterly sur prised him. Eor Helen smiled. The opiate was beginning already to do its work, so that the smile was a faint and drowsy one, but it was beyond all doubt a smile. T pleased expression came upon her face, and her drowsy eyelid* made that slight movement which implies both comprehension and assent. "Yes, yes," she breathed, “the ship, —dear Bertie,—1 rcmebcr now.— but I did not know—that we would stay— so long. Was I sea-sick, then? And Bertie—where—" The low voice died away. The question died upon her lips unfinish ed. The kindly opiate had done it* work, and healing slumber claimed her. Ned Searle stood by her with a deeply puzzled face—relieved of present fear, but greatly wondering."What pleasant memory can her troubled mind possibly associate with the ship?" he asked himself. “She has had nothing but grief and pain ever since she came aboard her. And the child I How strange that she has not yet thought of the child I But that was because she had not thoroughly a- wakened, and her thoughts arc a* yet confused and scattered,” he went on, and thus reasurring himself. "Memory and regret will awake and assail her soon enough, poor soul soon enough I” In this belief, he strongly cautioned Sue to say nothing about the babe. "Never speak of it cither now, or at any time, —unless she names it first," he instructed her, and the faithful, kind-hearted old creature obeyed him to the very letter. “Derc's no use talkin’ about heart breaks, anyway," she said, with a sober shake of her snowy, car- .let-crowned head. “I've lost young uns ob my own, I hab—I knows how it is; I ain’t goin’ to ’mind her 'bout her baby I" But when Helen awoke again— later in the afternoon—there was a kind of horror on her face, that made Ned ex pect the very question he most dread ed. She awoke with a start and a low cry, and raising herself upon her elbow slightly, looked over at the other side of her small bed. Not see ing whatever she expected there, she put out her hand with a strangely fearful, doubting air, and seemed to feel for something. Her quest still proving vain she fell back upon the pillow, with what seemed a sigh of great relief, and pressing her hand upon her eyes, shuddered violently.“Strange drcams I" Ned heard her murmur to herself. “Oh, horrible drcams 1 But they’re gone, thank God, they’re gone again I” CHAPTER XXIX Oblivion. They troubled her still, for all that. It appeared to Ned, as he watched her anxiously and in momentary dread of being called upon to assist her evi dently struggling and bewildered memory to recall that which he judgcl best forgotten—for a time at least—it appeared to Ned Searle that she was as if last, between the Past and Pres- <r4,.ynablc to be certain which wa* which. That she was making a great effort to remember something, was quite clear, and that it was something which horrified and pained her wa* no less certain; but it seemed to escape her at the very moment she would have seized and held it, and left her bewildered and afraid, like one who is haunted by an invisible but dreaded Presence, which may be ever felt and feared, but never seen. "My dream I” he could hear her whisper to herself. "What was that dream?” but evidently the memory had escaped her. Had the Reality escaped her too? This wa* the question that arose in Searle’s mind as he watched her. No mention of her grief or recent peril and pain, or dreadful wrongs,-r-no natural inquiry for her babe—only this visionary fancy about a dream which haunted and yet escaped her. A ter rible fear began to gather shape and strengthen in Ned Searle's mind,—a fear for Helen’s reason. Acting under its influence he stole round, quickly and silently, to her bed side, and gazed earnestly and anxious ly upon her face. It wa* no longer pale. The eyes were open, but she did not seem to see him, and her lips were moving rapidly and muttering low. He stooped to catch her words— they were the disjointed babbling* of delirium. It seemed as if she fan cied herself on the deck of a vessel, looking below at the foaming water. Presently a terror seized her. Some one had come behind her, unaware*, and sought to fling her over. She struggled madly, _ and would have sprung from the bed, but for old Sue's strong arms—while _ her piercing scream* brought Bertie from the deck. But Searle found a sense of relief in this new alarm; the injury to her brain wa* only a temporary one, he told himself—the lapse of memory, and this delirium were natural enodgh— she was struggling i« the grasp of fever. It held her many days. Delirious, or unconsciou*, all the time, the poor soul fought again, for the thirl time, the battle of life and death; and those who watched her the closest and help ed her the mo*t, scarcely dared to hope that she could come off the conqueror. She did *o, however. The "Saucy Jane" wa* well upon her way, far, far away from Black Rock Point, and many days out at sea, when Life and Health ranged themselves beside Helen's bed, and Death departed—vanquished. Weak as a little child, the girl lay still and watched hdr careful nurses, a little wonder still in her blue eyes, but too feeble to ask a question or say a word. She evidently recognized Bertie and was glad to see him, for the faintest shadow of a smile would steal to her pale lips whenever he came near. He would sit by her, when he had time to spare, and softly stroke her wasted hand, and she would fall asleep, for very weakness, under his caress, like a little, helpless child.“The longer we can keep her from talking, the better,” said'Ned Searle. As she gets stronger memory will re turn, and she will begin to ask ques tions. Then will come the danger I most dread. She is not able to stand another blow, and the knowledge that her child is dead, if it came on her now. would kill her." But she grew stronger day by day, and began to talk, a very, little, and chiefly in answers to their remarks, but still she asked no questions for quite a long time; and, when at last curiosity seemed aroused, the nature of her inquiries surprised her listener* more than even her previous silence had done. ”\Vhat ever made me so ill?” se asked Herbert, wonderingly. "I was well enough when I came on board, Bert." Then, as she met hi* amazed look—"You must remember, dear; you said only the day before, ‘tet I was getting my old roses back again. And how long have 1 been here? It seems a good deal more than a week, Bert, and oh. what will old Crosspatch say, if it is?" Herbert, amazed and stupified, but warned by secret signs from Searle to humor her strange fancy, pacified her as best he could with simple an swers. which seemed, in their turn, to puzzle her. Then he escaped as quickly a> he could, and went up on deck with Mr. Searle."What docs she mean by ‘old Cross patch’?' asked Searle, “and by speak- It Makes Cooking Easy ing of when *he came on board? She's not delirious now, understand, Bert. Was she ever on the *hip before?" Bert, amwered almost de*pairingly, for thi* new mystery discouraged him: “My dear fellow, how could she be? Is not this my first voyage aboard the ’Saucy Jane?’ As to Crosspatch—she used to call her schoolmistress that, poor child, when she was at Pallas Lodge, two years ago." And at Jhat Ned Searle gave him a quick, keen look, and repeated—"Two years ago I Humph I Two years I"—but said never another word. But when, a few days later, they carried her upstairs, and laid her in the sun to catch the breezes, presently the mystery wa* solved. She looked around her, pleased and smiling, but full of momentarily in creasing wonder and surprise. They had seated her in a sunny and se cluded corner, where no one could overhear what might be said. In the cabin great care had been taken to keep all knowledge of the truth from old Sue, and the sailors were, consequen tly, still in ignorance of who Helen was. Presently she spoke. “Why, we seem to be out to sea," she said, “and how am I ever to get back to school? Not that I want to go back. And how large the ship is, Bertie) I never saw anything so strange in all my life; she looked just like a little yacht, when we came aboard her I” Then Bertie partly understood, but the understanding terrified him. He arose abruptly, without answering her, and beckoned Searle to come aside with him. "For God’s sake what’s this?” he de manded. “Did you hear her? Two years ago. or thereabout, she had a two week’s holiday, poor child, and 1 took her sailing on a yacht. Why, she talks today of ^getting back to school,' as if wc were in those old days again, and she seems to think we arc on that very voage. Good Heaven, Searle, what docs it mean?" Searle answered, quietly and grave: "It mean* just what you have said, dear boy—she has gone 'back to those old years again.’ 1 have suspected it for some time—thank God that it is no worse. Such instances arc by no means uncommon, Bert, and this may prove a great mercy to your poor sis ter, by enabling her to regain health and strength, which perfect recollec tion would have made impossible. How many unhappy ones pray for oblivion, Bert I God has given it to her unasked, —oblivious of the past two years I” For a long time Bertie could only gaze at him in horor, toomuchshocked to put his feelings into words. "Tell me the worst I" he said hoarsely, at last. “Is her mind astray, Ned?” “Not a bit of it I" answered Ned Searle, cheerfully, “except upon thi* one subject—she’s just as keen and as dear as you or II But the past two years arc wiped away from the tab let* of her memory, and her brain goes on from where she was in earlier days. Think, Bert—all the shame, and pain, and sorrow of that awful night, and all that went before it, gone I She doesn’t even know that she had a hus band or a child. How, then, should she grieve for having lost then*? It's a mercy from God, Bert; it give* her a chance to get well; if she had re membered she would have died I” Herbert looked at him like a man who is dazed, and spoke in low tones of awe. “Will "she be always *0?" he de manded, very anxiously. "Will she know nothing of those two years, nor of the people she met and knew dur ing that time? If so, Ned, she can never point out to me her would-be murder er I it means safety for him, as well a* mercy for her, you sec, Ned; will she always be so?" "Even if she be, you will have the letter in her desk,” answered Ned Searle, thoughtfully. “Even if she be I" And Searle would answer—rcasur- ing him—“No, no. But her brain has received a shock that has stunned and dulled it. Her mind is weak, but I be lieve it will grow strong again. We must wait and hope." At first she plied Bertie eagerly with those questions; which he had so doubt her ability to answer. How and why had she been ill? Why were they no longer on board the yacht, but on a ship, instead? And what would be done about her absence from Pallas Lodge? Aided by Searle, Bertie answered all these inquiries very plausibly. She had been taken ill while on the yacht, he told her, during a storm which had suddenly arisen, and alarm ed her greatly. They watched her closely a* they spoke of a storm, and mw her face cloud slightly and momentar ily a* if with an effort to remember. She put up both her hand* to her hcacT with a look and gesture of distress— as if some memory, hazy and indis tinct, floated about her I could not be siezed upon shape—next moment she head with the action of shakes a burden off. "I can’t remember it," “There’* something in my could think about it; but think makes my head ache. I suppose 1 must have been very ill. What did you do, then, Bertie?" She was too ill to go back to school, he told her; and a* Dr. Searle recom mended a sea voyage for her, and was himself to be a passenger, it was judged best to bring her with them. "For a three years’ cruise," Bertie added, smiling on ter. "You shall be quite well by our return, dear." "Oh, yes,” she answered, cheerfully, “well enough to come to your wedding, Bertie. Ah, I have not forgotten what you told me before I was ill. you sec! You are to marry dear Florrie some day, and I am to be her bride maid." That was the strangest part of it. Her memory of their childhoodof her school days—of all that had gone be fore her holiday on the yacht—was perfect; after that the two years were a blank, and, in the present, her recol lection was so imperfect and unreli able, that they soon found out she was liable to forget on the morrow all that she had done to-day. On the other hand, her singular mental weak ness presented the one advantage, that it made her very tractable and gentle and as easy to answer or pacify or manage as some little child would have been. “Did I bring no clothes with me?" she asked in genuine surprise. "Why, Bertie, if I was sick, you must surely have been crazy to bring me away without my clothes.” “De luggage was forgotten on de wharf, honey,” said old Sue, glibly, be- for either Bertie or Searle could re cover from the confusion into which this remark threw them suffi- ently to answer her. “A nice big trunk, full ob pretty things, what de cap’en had made up for you; and de stupid 'spressman left it on de wharf. As for you hat an’ coat, honey,” Sue went on, thoughtfully anticipating another awkard question, ”dcy was left, on do dciknk - eery night you come aboard, and de wind blowcd a gale and ketched a hold ob dem, an’ done gone an' carried dem out away ober de sea.”To this wholesale lying—which fell glibly from Spe’s lips without a mo- brain.but or put into shook her one who she said. ' mind—if I ------------------—------------------------------------------ ment’s hesitation—Bertie and Ned Searle listened with wonder and relief. Then Searle beckoned his friend aside. “Old Sue will prove a valuable auxiliary,” said he. “and help us out of no end of difficulties. Shall I talk to her?” It was agreed between them that the old woman should be "talked, to,” and Searle undertook the task. He perform- cd it so well that Sue readily perform the part he required of < and go with them, at Helen's nurse and attendant, to the end of their loos voyage.

CHAPTER XXX A Course Decided Upon "You have, or will have, her letter, containing full particulars concerning her husband and their marriage.” said Dr. Searle, glancing thoughtfully to ward Helen’s recumbent figure resting in the sunshine and the breeze. “You can trust to that, and your own recol lection of hi* face for hi* identification when the time come*. Besides, her memory may return in time, cither gradually, as her health and strength increase, or suddenly, from some un expected shock. If the latter were ta happen now in her present precarious state, the consequences might be fatal. Wc must do all in our power to pre vent that, Bert. She must be k«pt in ignorance—in blissful oblivion— I you would save her life." Herbert nodded gravely. "It would hurst me sorely to let that scoundrel escape," he said. “If I don’t bring him to justice and the law, I’ll have a personal settlement with him. at any rate. But, as you say, she may recover in time, and anyway I shall have her letter to guide me.” Little he thought how that precious letter had been given up to “Mr. Aaron Graver," and by him handed over to the very man against whom he hoped to use it as a weapon—even Mr. James Trevor."And *0 you advise me to humor her fancy,” Bert went on. "It won't be easy, and I shall have to answer all sorts of questions with all sorts of lies, I suppose, for you see she ha* noticed the diffcrencc-between the little yacht of two years ago and this ship already. I’m afraid she’ll catch me tripping, Searle, let me try for it as I mayl"And so she might have done had her poor hurt brain been capable of ob serving very clearly, or thinking accu rately or long; but it was not, and before many days were over it began to be apparent to Bert and his friend that the k»»s of memory, which in a manner, wiped two years out of her young life, wa* not the only curious change in Helen. The alteration in her was entirely mental, and very curious and subtle, and hard to describe. She had been shrewd, sensible and clear of judg ment, so far as her ignorance and girlish inexperience allowed; she was now childish, almost simple at time*, ea*ily vexed or plAsed and amuied, sometimes to the point of actual mer riment, by the merest trifle*. There was, to Bertie, who knew the terrible story of grief, and crime, and suffer ing which she had forgotten, something inexpressibly touching in the sight of her leaning far over the ves sel’s side throwing crumbs to attract the large fishes *he sometime* saw, and laughing quite shrilly with plea»- ure at their gambol* in the water. ,At sutch times he would say, with alarm, to his faithful friend: "Is she growing imbecile?

Let's hear why you think I ought not to send Florence the letter I have writ ten her.""One can never be absolutely sure of letters, in the first place." Searle answered him. "They may miscarry in a doxen ways, and go quite astray, into hands they never were intended for. This is true of all letters, but peculiarly so of yours, if xertain suspicions of mine he correct. 1 hate to tell you what those suspicions are. and what the are founded on. but I must—sf Helen's secret is to be kept, or her wrongs avenged. “You arc engaged to Miss Hamilton, as you have told me. without her "l» this a surmise only?" he asked quietly.

The very night before we sailed I was in- trduced to a Mr. Tremaine, with whom, as 1 was given to understand. Mr. Hamilton in some way has busi ness connections. The friend who in troduced him to me afterward volun teered the information that Mr. Ham ilton's only child and_ heiress was to marry Mr. Tremaine.” “Good Heavens I" “I asked him where he obtained his information." Searle went on hur riedly, “and he answered. 'From Tre maine himself.’ He said, moreover, that the arrangement was with Mr. Hamilton himself, and thc young lady had not been consulted. In an instant it occurred to me that there had been a motive vou little dreamt of for lend- enee, not v In entire "But Florrie—’’ Herbert was begin ning earnestly. Searle interrupted him. "You would say that you can trust her love—that »he is true as steel." he cried. "I know, Bert, and 1 don’t doubt her worth and truth for a mo ment. But she is a young and inex perienced girl, surrounded by. cunning plotters. How can you tell.—what security have you—that your letters will reach her hand*? or at least, that her father’* eye* will not overlook them ere they reach her?" Bertie uttered a cry of rage. “It would be villainous," he said. "It would be wise—on Mr. Hamil ton’* part." replied Searle, "and within thc bonds of his parental authority. The world would uphold and even applaud the parent who saved his daughter from what it would consider an imprudent match. What are your two young heart* to these men of the world ? They measure happiness by money only, and laugh at love. Now do you ate why I object to your writ ing about Helen? Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Tremaine may learn the story, and, through them—one never knows where the ball may stop when once 'tis set a rolling—through them, even James Trevor. It sounds unlikely, 1 know nothing about the scoundrel, or who and what his associates were; and—though it*» merely a prejudice, of course—I don’t like Mr. Tremaine." "Like him!" Bertie burst in. angrily. "I detest the fellow. So doe* Florrie. She'd die rather than marry him, I know. But perhaps, as you say. it is best to be on the safe ride, and say nothing, for Helen's sake." He looked wistfully at his letter as he spoke. Certain sounds above him— the hurry-scurry of many feet, the joyous shouts and laughter of the sea men—told his experienced cars that they were in sight of thc port, at which their stay could be but a very brief one. "I shall have no lime to write more than a few brief lines now." he sigh ed. “and what will she think of that?" A* he put back into his desk the long and loving letter—which he had almost finished, and which would have afforded Florence so much joy— suddenly a sweet, gay. joyous voice wa» heard approaching the cabin— Helen’s voice. CHAPTER XXXII kf ichief Brewing. She came into the cabin in a hurry of cxcilmcnt and anticipation. She was a little pale and fragile looking still, from her recent trial, but her eagerly parted lips were rosy red. and her eye* were bright and joyous. She nodded gayly to Dr. Searle, and came eagerly to Bertie’s side. "We have arrived." she said. "Come, Bertie, they are going to anchor, and we shall go ashore in the little boat.

Glen coe pool room proprietor, who had such a board, was found guilty of dis posing of merchandise through a game of chance and fined $20 and cost*. The case was the first involving operation of such games to come be fore an Ontario court and will likely, it is intimated, lead to the confisca tion of other boards of like nature said to be in operation in the district. An appeal will be considered, it is thought, but if any is made it will be brought, by the Toronto concern whkh distrib utes these games and not by the Glen coe man.Sergt. E. T. Doyle and Constable T. Campbell, of the local detachment of thc provincial police, found the board when they visited thc premises of Davenport early in August. It wa* on exhibition in court, ahd at thc request of Crown Attorney Judd the accused attempted to demonstrate how a prize is won. Out-of five trie* he did not have a successful one. thc exhibition of “skiir causing laughter by all present, including the accused. Darts sell for 10 cents, it wa* shown, and thc purchaser call* for a number and endeavor* to strike it. If he hit* one of a special series he receives a box of chocolate* and if he fails secure* a consolation prize worth five cents. , ,Albert H. Murphy, for thc defense, submitted that it was not a game of chance, for the thrower received some thing foe every attempt. "There is no element of chance to it." he said, -whether the thrower is skillful or not."The crown believed that on Daven- iK>rt's own exhibition it could not be called a game of skill. There was a big clement of chance to it, he thought.Boards and like contrivance* were denounced by magistrate Hawkshaw. -1 think it is the same a* a punch board." he stated. "These board* are all one-sided, favoring thc operator and misleading the public. The big objection to them is the money spent by the younger people in taking a chance. Numerous complaint* are be ing received. Perhaps the board a* originally passed out wa* honest, but thc addition to it of certain special prize* madc it a game of chance. The people who sell these should be prose cuted—" Mr. Judd: "They may be. This is a roundabout way to get at them." Thc magistrate: "The boards are to be found in many places. When the officers come in they are thrown down cellar or behind thc counter. It is a game of chance, not one of skill." Bulletins By Radio At The Globe Office Saturday the bulletin services on thc swims/was run by radio, the broadcast of the swims being picked and printed on thc pro gress of each event. For the day a Rogers Batterylcss receiver wa* in stalled. It was a table model, and did excellent service under difficult con ditions. The Globe editorial room is situated in the shadow of the great steel and concrete buildings, in thc heart of Toronto, and thc office itself is heavily wired, not only for mechani cal power and electric lights, but as well for a great battery of telephones and news telegraph instruments. These and the location, form what is known as “radio shadow •” and inter ferences in the outlying districts. De spite all this, the fire-tube Roger*. Batterycss brought in thc broadcast ing clearly and with splendid volume. Not an item of the races was lost, though the receiver was in action without a pause for five hours. The machine was installed without an aerial, it merely being plugged into an electric light socket with a simple ground on a handy hot water radiator. A supplementary service over a direct Canadian National Telegraph* wire from the Exhibition was installed for thc swim* in case of a possible break down of the radio, which breakdown, fortunately, did not happen. Fights Increase In Hydro Charge Sarnia, Sept. 12—Mayor William J. Scott declared his intention as a com missioner to fight the 33 cent* increase in the service charge for thrcc-wire domestic hydro service*, at the Sarnia Hydro-Electric Commission today de ferred consideration of the subject until next monthly meeting. George N. Galloway, chairman of the commis sion. also announced that he wa* secur ing information from other municipali ties and data on the number of con sumers affected here which he hoped to have available for thc next sitting. At the August meeting notification wa* received from the Ontario Hydro- Electric Commission of a reduction of $2 a horsepower a year in the cost of power to the municipality, with few change* tn rates except a fractional reduction tn power rates and an in crease in the service charge for three- wire domestic service* of 33 cent*.

You are heartily invited to join ' with us in a season of prayer on this I evening. There wa* a large gathering | last Wednesday and a time of blessing 1 was enjoyed by a!L To come is to | enjoy it. To slay away is to mis* it. • If thc Courtland Baptist church mem ber* want blessing in the neighbor hood we will have to wait upon God in prayer, and to sure a* He blessed in I he pari he bill do so again. We read in God’s word of a »mall Baptist church shaking a great city to it* foundations. Ju*t over one hundred member*, and apart from the men who did thc preaching they were all practically unknown. humble com pany of men and women, young and x»ld_ but they were so wholly given up to God and the doing of Hi* will that through their testimony and wit ness God shook thc city in which they lived. They had not been organized long enough to own their build ing. but thi* wa* no hindrance to them asking God ble»s their efforts jn the great city in which they lived, nor were they situated in a residen tial district, but right in among thc foreign element, where no les* than sixteen different nationalities were living. Thc "readier* were ordinary working men, none of them were par- ticularily distinguished as scholars never having seen the inside of a col lege or University. They were all fundamentalists, believing in the divine inspiration of the old and new testament from which they freely quoted in their preachings. So much did they quote and keep to the *crip- tures that they were later charged with filling thc city with their doctrine. It wa* not difficult to tell which they believed from their preaching and teaching. Their memberihip wa* ex clusively composed of those who had been regenerated by the Holy Ghost, and had been baptised upon pro fession of their faith in Christ- Thi* great city wa* the headquarter* of a great many religious sects and they objected very strongly to the aggres sive methods of thi* small company, charging them with bigotry and in tolerance because they made salvation de|>end upon belief in their doctrine, saying thkre wa* salvation in none other. Every *ermon they preached they brought in repentance, faith in Jesus Christ and baptism by immer sion. In less than a month eight thousand had been converted and baptised. Thc opposition became so strong that the preacher* were arrest ed and put in jail. They refused to give any promise to the magistrate* that they would ccaso their preaching. Failing to prove any charge against them they were released. Their prayer meetings were veritable »ea*on* of heaven upon earth, and the place lit erally shook with thc power of God upon the company as they poured out their heart* to God in Prayor. They did not need anyone to lead the prayer meeting, they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and one mind. No wonder the preacher* preached with *uch great power and witnessed »uch wonderful results in thc conversion of thousands. All thi* through a little over one hundred humble believer*. ‘ Courtland Baptist church has a membership almost if not altogether, a* large, and our diffi culties are no greater than their* were. May God lead everyone who read* these few lines to get right with God and begin to pray and work for a re vival in Courtland. The Young People have their meet ing every Friday evening at 8.15.
