Fort Churchill is easily the best port on the bay. Several hundred men are working there, improving the har­ bor and getting ready for the comple­ tion of the railway next year. It ha* become otiitc a settlement, although mon of the building* could hardly be classed as of permanent construction. Freighter* were anchored in the har­ bor and a large quantity of supplies, largely coal, were being unloaded. The government maintains a wireless sta­ tion there. The last of the tree* to be seen for 2.fl<)0 miles of flying were around Cliutchill. As the plane swung north along the coast one of the bleakest pic­ tures imaginable unfolded itself. A low-lying coast gradually faded into the background on the west and to the east nothing but the light green­ colored water* of Hudson Bay. At the mouth of the Churchill score* of small white whale* acted like porpoises of warmer water*, sometime* rising half out of the water. They were also seen at mouth* of other streams far­ ther north. Ducks and geese were to be »een in large flocks, their presence in the quiet bay* being easily detected by the ripples they made on the water.

One of the»e had an arm 75 miles long. At Stoney Rapids was a gas cache, but rather than deplete it for a trip to Fort Smith, only sufficient fuel to see the plane through was taken. The route was larger than expected as it was found necessary to stick close to Lake Athabasca until the Slave River was reached. A head wind was bucked and as a result the gas supply ran out 30 miles from Fitzgerald. This was the only forced landing on the trip, and to the party quite amusing considering the ground that had already been cov­ ered. -While Slave River is part of the main artery to the Arctic, it was a question as to when and how fuel could be secured. An attempt was made to have the current carry the plane down the river toward Fitzgerald, but this was unsuccessful To overcome in part the wind it was decided to make a raft of logs to catch the current and pull the plane. The party was busily con­ structing this when up the river came a steamer, The National Echo. Ga* was secured from it and the journey continued after'" only a three-hour break.Fitzgerald and Fort Smith are busy places. Each community occupies an end of a 17-mile portage along a serie* of rapids on the Slave River. Freight to and from the Arctic is hauled over the portage and autos carry passengers. From Fort Smith steamers run to the mouth of the Mackenzie. The head­ quarters of the police for that part oi the Northwest Territories, the district supervisor and mining recorder are located at Frfri Smith. This makes for a fine settlement, well kept buildings and grounds. . . . buy your . . . Suits and Overcoats . . . from . . .

Along the shores of lakes near the coast are larger plants and some­ times a grass. Where there is soft soil what is called a gopher, a much larger animal than the prairie species, will frequently be found, and the favorite pastime of the Eskimo dog* is to dig them out. Back from the coast a short distance there is no drift to be seen, just rock and lake*. Near the coast the rock may be moss-covered, but often for mile* it is a* bare a* if swept with a broom. After an afternoon'* plane run Es­ kimo Point, with it* missions and trad­ ing building, is passed and Mistake Bay reached. This is. for the present, the main base of Dominion Explorers. It is only a comparatively short dis­ tance south of Rankin Inlet, well known to mining men who hase read about the country because along that partic­ ular inlet copper had been found some year* before by explorers The build-1 ings to house men this coming winter, were under construction and the care with which they have been built will iso doubt be appreciated before next sum­ mer. The lumber was all cut to speci­ fication before loading on the schooner at Halifax and piece* numbered. Huge piles of freight, largely coal, gasoline and foodstuffs, had been unloaded. Two plants were working and two more were to be 'assembled. In the party located there are men with years o( experience in the Arctic and a number of well-known prospec­ tor*. They are a fine-looking lot. The I lanes took men to favorable areas and rought them back. A collapsible canoe was usually taken along, a good­ ly ration of food, with a primus stove and gasoline for cooking How long they will be able to work in the field is yet a question. Winter will toon be setting in and while this might stop all prospecting, the men experienced in the country believe that the wind will keep big rock areas swept as clean in the winter a* in the summer. They do not expect that in actual temperature the winter will be much colder than m some of the settled part* of Canada, with a minimum of say 50 below zero, but icy blasts of 30 and 40-mile winds might stop outside work altogether for a period. A wireless station is to be erected there and communication kept up with the outside world. Member* of the party feel that the establishment of a permanent base will permit much later work this year and an earlier start next year than would be possible were the men taken out of the country for the winter month*. A Magaificeat Waterway The visit to Mistake Bay lasted until September 2nd. when Baker l-ake was flown to. The route followed Hudson Bay. crossed Rankin Inlet and over a serie* of lakes to Chesterfield Inlet. The Inlet is a magnificent waterway, extending 300 mile* inland. Baker Lake join* on the west end and quite large schooner* can be navigated «o the west end of the lake, almost 400 miles from the Hudson Bay’coast. Around Chesterfield Inlet and Baker Lake the country is much more rugged than to the »outh. One hill near Baker Lake, said to be 1,400 feet high, stands out for miles. Most of the shore line rise* a* a gradual slope, but where the Inlet narrow* in place* the shore* are likely to be quite steep.

Nearer Baker Lake a large unnamed river tumble* down what appeared from the plane to be at least 200 feet into the Inlet. From above it looked like a silver ribbon against a very drab background. Their First Planes The Eskimos of Baker Lake had seen one plane before the one carrying the writer arrived. It had been there the day before, a N.A.M.E machine, but the natives had still considerable fear until the plane had been quieted along a sandy beach that would be worth a lot of money to a southern summer resort. While the plane circl­ ed the little community one could see the Eskimo women and children scur­ rying into their tent*.

Baker Lake is a splendid body of clear water, 100 mile* south of the Arctic Circle, in place* perhaps 30 miles wide and 80 mile* long. Two other lakes, each almost as big. drain into it from the west. An overnight stop was made at the Hudson Bay quarters. An Anglican missionary, a splendid fellow, and two French priests helped make the stay a very pleasant one. The next morning a start was made on the long hop across the Barren Lands to the Lake Athabasca country. The trip was figured at around 840 miles, and while the writer doe* not know the feelings of hi* companions, a thrill went through him at the thought of being in the first plane to cross that tract. It is said that much of the jour­ ney was over land never before seen The following day the return trip was made to Stoney Rapid*, and The Northern Miner had the pleasure of meeting James Cornwall, head of the Northern Trading Company, who wa* picked up by the plane at Chipewyan, mi the west end of Lake Athabasca.

On the following day the hop was made to the Sherritt Gordon property in Northern Manitoba, the route fol­ lowing Reindeer Lake and the Church­ ill River. Most of it is heavily wooded.

The route, as laid out. was to cross Aberdeen Lake, follow the Dubawnt River to Dubawnt Lake, across the height of land and catch a series of waterways that would lead to l-ake Athabasca, on the Mackenzie River slope. Not much reliance was placed on mops and this feeling was well jus­tified before the day was over. There was no lack of water at any time, pos­sibly sixty per cent, of the country is water. South to Dubawnt Lake one could see that the rock* were covered with moss near the lakes, but back from the water great areas were abso­ lutely bare. It could almost Ise called a prospector'* paradise, all the strip­ ping having been done. The coast of Hudson Bay and the Chesterfield and Baker Inlet areas looked anything but inviting, but the Barren Lands are far worse. For miles, perhaps over a hun­ dred. not only was the rock bare, but the lakes seemed to have no vegetal too whatever. One seagull in 240 mile* was the only living thing observed. Il was remarked afterwards that if the caribou herds went over that particu­ lar section in their long trek* their meals were few and scanty. Large Promising Areas It was possible to distinguish some of the rock and the prediction is nude that when this country is gone over by prospectors, as it no doubt will be. the rocks favorable for mineral deposition will be ’ ’ than has Luella Upfold, ________,___ .......

Miss Poole of Norwich Heads Oxford Teachers found far more widespread been supposed. It was not until near the height oi land separating the Hudson Bay waters from those flowing into the Mackenzie had been passed that the first evidence of timber wa» seen. First came a stunted scrub in little patches in pro­ tected places. The tree* gradually gaintd both in size and quantity until the shores of lakes and river and creek valleys .were lined with them. One can easily imagine an explorer travelling the waterways believing he was in a bush country, whereas back from the water a short piece there was only rock and most. The picture quickly changed, however, and within 50 miles or so of the first scrub the country be­ came very much like the belter-known rocky parts of Northern Manitoba. Ontario and Quebec, with only occa­ sional glimpses to be had of rock* among the tree*.Haze, caused by bush fire* to the west, made flying difficult, and a land­ ing was made on a lake 40 or 50 miles north of Lake Athabasca. Later in the day the journey was continued, Athabasca Lake vtruck near Fond du Lac and the plane headed back east to a cache at Stoney Rapids, on the Cat River. The stay here was with Cana­ dian Mounted Police, and it seemed as though they tried to outdo the wymth of hospitality at other point*. Trapper* and other retident* of the district were busily engaged at Stoney Rapids catching fish, which would be fed to sleigh dogs next winter. A day"* catch by trawl of several hun­ dred pound* was not unusual The procedure is quite simple; fishing is done from canoe or skiff. A big rock anchors the craft in the rapid* and the trawl is thrown overboard. Sometime* the trawl does not get fully out before there is a strike. Then, with luck, ■ fine grey trout, perhaps over ten pounds weight, is hauled in. The fish are cleaned, strung on nicks and hung in racks to be dried. Trips were made to the surrounding Woodstock.

Perhaps, to many persons, a suspicion of tuberculosis means cough, sputum, the raising of blood, and pain in the chest. These are indeed signs of tuber­ culosis. Blood spitting should always be considered as due to tuberculosis until it is proved otherwise. We may say that a person who raises some blood early in the disease is fortunate, because this frightens him and sends him to his physician. However, the signs mentioned above are what occur when the disease is well established, and what we should know are the signs and symptoms that occur earlier than this. It is not our intention to describe all the earliest signs which would make one suspicious of tuberculosis, but rather to point out one or two of the commonest, which should be known to all, and the presence of which should send them to their physician for exam­ ination. to find out whether or not there is any actual disease. The most important of these early suspicious signs is the most difficult to define. It is chronic fatigue, undue fatigue, causing the individual to tire easily. The person who finds that he is regularly tired from work which docs not usually fatigue him. that he is tired every afternoon, that everything is an effort, should have a medical ex­ amination.A cough lasting over six weeks should suggest medical examination. If these two signs were considered by all as danger signals which would turn them towards their doctor’s office, there would be fewer cases of tuber­ culosis that arc far advanced when the physician first secs them.Not everyone with these symptoms has tuberculosis, but some have, and the only way in which one ean protect himself is by having a thorough med­ ical examination to ascertain the cause in any particular case, and. if it is tuberculosis, to secure early treatment which offers the best chance for cure. Questions concerning Health, ad­ dressed to the Canadian Medical As­ sociation, 184 College Street, Toronto, will be answered by letter. Questions as to diagnosis and treatment will not be answered.

Tobacco contains a powerful poison known as nicotine. This poison is especially bad for the young boys who smoke. When they smoke cigarettes for the first time they are sick, but after that, when they get used to them, they crave for the cigarettes. Smok­ ing makes the boy careless and listless about his work and studies. He can­ not keep his mind on his work. Chewing tobacco is even worse than smoking cigarettes or any other to­bacco. Chewing the tobacco, more of the poison gets into the boy’s system. When boys arc in any game where there is a lot of running they should not smoke because they soon lose their breath. The other boys in the game do not want a boy who smokes to be their leader. Smoking affects the heart and lungs. It also makes him lose his appetite and he is not inter­ ested in any games. Il often caueses indigestion and headache and in course of time his health fails him. A boy who smokes has stained fingers. This stain is caused from the poison from the tobacco.Sore throat is often caused by smok­ ing. and it also ruins the voice. Many young boys and girls are smoking now and they are being warned against the poison of smoking. If the young peo­ ple wish to enjoy life they should re­ frain from smoking cigarettes or any other kind of tobacco. (By Betty Barclay) How many remember the school lunch of twenty or thirty years ago? Let’s call for a showing of hands among the fathers and mothers who have read this first sentence. Bread and butter; cake; pic; milk or cold tea; an apple; white bread sandwiches with big pieces of cold roast beef between the slices of bread! That about covers it doesn’t h? Oh yes, there were doughnuts, cookies, cake and pie—not all at once, but here and there as the larder at home could supply them. And how did we eat those lunches? Well, at recess we got rid of the "ta- sties." At noon we were so hungry that we bolted the rest—and then we darted down the lane to fill up on apples, berries or whatever else grew wild or could be found beneath the trees of some friendly orchard owner. Little did we care about balanced luncheons. Little did we think about such things as indigestion, acidosis, un­ der-nourishment and all those things that school teachers now write notes about. We ate what our lunch-boxes held, suffered when the apples were too green, and saw to it that as soon as we got home we could nibble on something else that grew in the garden in the orchard, or in our favorite berry patch or nut wood. Had we only realized it. those berries, fruits, vegetables and nuts were largely responsible for our health. Heavy school lunches of acid-producing foods would have slowly sapped the strength from our healthy young bodies without the balancing effect of those alkaline fruits, vegetables and berries that we plucked here, there and wherever we could find them. Without knowing it we were securing what might almost be called medicine as we plucked fruit from a tree or wiped a golden carrot off with its own green leaves and started along the road munching it. Now that the school bells are calling our own children to school, what arc we putting in the lunch box? Very few of the children of this generation find it convenient to locate the fruits, berries, vegetables, and nuts that were «o abundant in their parents’ youth. Most of them depend largely upon the contents of the school lunch box itself, to obtain a balanced meal. Meats, fish, bread, doughnuts, cookies and cake of most kinds arc acid-pro­ ducing in their effect. This does not mean that we must not eat such foods, for they are healthful and necessary. It does mean, however, that we must see that they are sufficiently balanced with alkaline foods such as green vegetables, fresh fruits, berries and raisins. Oranges and lemons are strongly alkaline in their effect. This may seem strange to some who still think of them as being acid, but nevertheless it u true. Although known as acid fruits they have an alkaline reaction when taken into the body. Hie orange in the lunch box. therefore, is balancer number one. It may be placed entire with the other foods packed, or it may form part of a salad oc fruit cup that is furnished the child. Occasionally it may be used in cake or pudding form.The lemon lends itself to many tarty desserts, while a glass of lemonade is far better for the school lunch than many of the beverages often earned ornearby BROWN’S TRANSPORT Daily Service Between Tillsonburg and London H.

This would be an unwise luncheon. The child might stand it if the evening meal were as alkaline as this lunch is acid, but it is doubtful if the mother who packed such a lunch would have the ability to serve a coun­ teracting evening meal. Include a sandwich or two. of course. Sometimes they may contain meat or fish—but if both contain these foods, see to it that there are plenty of vege­ tables and fruits to counteract them. L’sually i nc meat or fish sandwich is sufficient. The «:her sandwich could contain marmalade jelly, or a tasty chopped fruit mixture. Minced olives and baked beans; lettuce and tomato; chopped dates and nuts—any of these fillings is desirable.Again, merely wrap the sandwich slices in waxed paper, and include a ittle dish of salad made from fruits and vegetables. When lunch time comes the child may either eat the salad with the bread, or may make a sandwich from it on the spot. Celery, apple and orange—there is a good combination. Peel oranges and remove all white skin. Cut into one- fourth inch slices and cut each slice nto halves. Dice celery and apple and mix with mayonnaise. For serving at home you would arrange a circle ol half slices of oranges on a lettuce - covered salad plate, fill centre with apple and celery mixture add garnish with celery lips. For the school lunch, mix and pack as attractively as possible n a little dish, the bottom of which has been covered with a crisp leaf of celery. Date and orange; prune and orange, cabbage and orange and even onion ind orange combinations will be found equally pleasing. They will appeal to the children as something unusual and something tasty, and better than this, they will be excellent balancers for those other foods that arc almost in- variably included in the school lunch box.

While he expects several weeks fine weather before the snow falls, he expects a severe spell during the first part of the winter.Mr. Locke, who is accepted as the district prognosticator, reaches his conclusions in unique manner. He knows the severe weather will come in the early months of winter because the black spot this autumn appears on the caterpillar’s head. When the black is in the centre of the caterpillar the severe period will t>e in the middle of winter, and the black spot on the tail means that March will go out like a lion, Mr. I-Ocke says. The unusual number of husks on the com this season is further promise of a cold winter, he points out.

The meeting was of unusual in­ terest, a box being sent to Miss Bax­ ter. missionary in India. The intense interest in foreign missions was very evident, as one by one the members brought their contribution for the box. The gift* were varied and interettmg: rabbits, apron*, shawls, workings, handkerchiefs, dolls and more dolls, etc. The Circle girls mined the pleas­ ure of sending a box to the mission last year and were surely delighted to have the opportunity once more. Aftyr the usual devotional period a short business session was held, when plans for a social evening as well as the usual monthly meeting for November were discussed. Il was decided to hold a social evening about thc third week in November, at which a thankoffering will be taken, giving those who are not contributing systematically through the envelopes a chance to contribute. Thc bible reading was given by Effie McNeil, and Mrs. Rush took the chap­ tar in the study-book. A vocal solo, "Go and Tell," by Miss Russell, wa* very appropriate and much enjoyed by all present.

Sept. 20—Representations made recently by operator* of milk trucks in various counties of the pro­ vince have been succestful in bringing about a concession from the Govern­ ment in the matter of insurance called for by the regulation, under the new Public Commercial Vehicle Act. The regulation* came into force on the 17th of thi, month and under schedule “A” an insurance minimum of $JJ00 is called, in respect of legal lia­ bility for any damage or loss to gOods entrusted to the carrier. The dairy industry pointed out. through a recent delegation, that the load, carried in no case would reach thi, figure in value. An amendment ha, therefore been approved by the lieutenant-governor in council, on rec­ ommendation of Premier Ferguion, acting minister of highways. It set* forth that “the minister may authorize the taking out of a policy or policies in amount less than that set out in schedule "A" by person, whose vehicles are usecT exclusively for the transpor­ tation of farm or dairy product, or live stock." The Public Commercial Vehicle, Act. chief provisions, which are licens­ ed by the department and the fixing of compulsory insurance to indemnity owners of good, or merchandise from September IF. and application* for-licen»e are now being received by the motor vehicle* branch, department of highway*.

SMITH NORTH BROADWAY PHONE 340 Jem Lowe cursed his own Inconsid­ erate haste in earnest, then, and—not exactly knowing what to say, hesitat­ ed and remained silent. Bertie rnisun- derstod this hesitation altogether. “You wonder at my’ request." he said. "That’s only natural and 111 ex­ plain it as far as lies in my power. There are reasons—most important reasons—why I do not wish Mr. Ham­ ilton’s family informed of certain in­ cidents of our voyage. I allude to the rescue of the unhappy lady whom you call Mrs. Clare: Until I can make all her story known, it is better that they should hear nothing. And I think it only probable that you, in writing to your sweetheart, may have told her of the poor girl whom we saved from death, and she may repeat it to Miss Hamilton. Am I right in supposing that you.wrote this?" Jem’s confusion was increasing with every word—so were his regret*—to .think that he. without the least intend­ ing it, should have done inis mischief for the captain! He didn’t know in what words to confess it "Well, captain," he stammered, un­ easily. "it wasn’t as I was wanting to meddle in affairs as don’t concern me; but. to one’s sweetheart—’’ “Of courscl" Bertie assented, readily "Most natural that you should write her all the news; I am not blaming you for doing so. It is a favor I ask of you, Jem. Lowe, when I request you not to mail that letter." “Not to mail that letter!" Again Jem Lowe saw a possibility of juggling with Bertie’s words, and—following his natural instinct, took it instantly. He was not going to mail the letter be­ cause that mischief was already done. He now resolved to send another let- er urging Polly to hold her tongue; perhaps—he argued—she would say nothing any way, for fear of grieving the young mistress of whom she was so fond. And. in that case, no harm would be done, and Captain Qare need never know the letter had been posted. Jem’s face cleared and his eyes bright­ ened as he came to this unfortunate conclusion, but he did not meet his captain’s eyes. "I won’t mail the letter, captain." he said. “I promise you. ill write another, and post it instead." Bertie shook hands with him. "You shall lose nothing by obliging me." he said "We shall not sail until to-morrow, so you’ll have plenty of time; and your sweetheart need not be disappointed either." "That’s good.” said Jem and thought to himself ax he turned away, “Shell get both letters at once, and the one will keep the other from doing mis­ chief. I'm glad 1 didn’t let him know ’twas posted" So Bertie’ congratulated himself that the danger he had dreaded was past, and 1cm went ashore in high spirits and enjoyed himself—enjoyed himself so much that he wasn’t exactly in a mood for letter-writing when he came aboard again.He wrote next morning, however. Necessarily it was a longish letter, be­ ing intended to counteract the effect of the first one, and took Jem con­ siderable time. In H he said: "All that 1 told you was so. you know; but the captain don't want it known in your house, and so don’t you make me be the one to blow upon him. If you tell this. I’ll never tell you nothing again." This letter was finished about an hour before sailing time, and one of the many usual little boats took it a- shore. “Shell get them both together," said Jem to himself; "it’ll be all right.” But he was mistaken. For the mail that forwarded his first unlucky letter had gone out on the pre­ vious evening, and this second one would not, certainly, reach Polly for another month or more. _ CHAPTER XLIII In The Trap. Meantinme, as that “month or more’’ went on. Florence grew mote and more quiet and pale, and her father rtpre and more anxious; the specula­ tions, which were to have brougt him sudden wealth, had thus far brought him little more than anxiety and care; but still. with the fatuous persistency of the \ gambler—’"i 3., ,’.;<u . specious uSiUrxnce of his trusted friend, Tremaine—he went on "throw­ing good money after bad." diving deeper into the madness of speculation. At one time, when he was pressed for money. Tremaine had taken some of his mining shares at an advance on what he himself had paid for them, and this act had so restored his confidence if, indeed, it had been really shaken, that he knew no rest until he got them back, and as many more as he could raise the money for, into the bargain. For the solidity and worth of the mines in which he held these shares, was indisputable. Only, there had been something in the way they came into his hands, at so much below their real value—which had never been clearly explained to him. and which he did not rightly understand. Tremaine did not profess to quite understand it cither, but his confidence in Mr. Aarons was so perfect that it inspired Mr. Hamilton with the same. and strangled misgivings, which might have grown to be doubts, in their very birth. There could be nothing wrong, according to Mr. Hamilton’s thinking, in an enterprise that was ap­ proved by Mr. Tremaine. And that worthy was very careful to act-in such a manner as should dis­ pel all his victim’s possible doubts. It had been an act of friendship in him to help Mr. Hamilton to this chance foe a rapid fortune, and he had -in­ vested largely for himself,' and shown himself w-illing to take the shares on his own hands, when his friend wish­ ed it. Moreover, he aspired to marry Florence, and it was contrary to all ordinary reasoning to suppose that he would have advised any course of ac­ tion that would tend to impoverish her father. Mr. Hamilton never doubted him. His confidence in his friend was supreme. He would have placed—and did sincerely desire to place—his only child, and all her hopes of happiness. under this man’s control, no less freely than he had already placed her, and his own, fortune. "She begins to like you better than she did," he said to Tremaine. "It is only a question of time and patience, once fairly won and wedded to you, she will never waver. But she looks pale, and seems to pine, I think. We are doll here, a little change of scene might cheer her.” Tremaine thought so, too. "There’ll be another letter before long." he said. “And one never knows what accidents may happen. How if she should suspect us—women are so confoundedly acute when their hearts arc engaged—and contrive to get the key of your letter-box. and spoil all our pains. But send her out of the way. lor a while at least; after a time shell begin to believe that he is deliberately neglecting her. Once it comes to that we shall have no more trouble, for she is very-proud!" So it was agreed that Florence should accept an invitation from Amy Gordon to pass a few weeks with her at Clifftown. Mr. Tremaine secretly disapproved of this wild and gloomy place, but Florence was too sorrowful to go into gay society, and would only consent to visit the place where Helen died. "I may find some traces of her cruel murderer I" she said. “Ah. what a debt of gratitude I should owe the man who would bring him to justice!" She glanced at Mr. Tremaine as she said this, and—under the influence of her changed and kindly thoughts of him—almost expected him to volunteer his aid! but he disappointed her, for. instead of showing enthusiasm in poor Helen’s cause, he pointedly changed the subject immediately. He had his own private reasons for wanting her out of the way. even though she went to the hated Black ?nck Point—for Mr. Tremaine had conceived a violent (u.nke to that locality. He wanted to bring matters to a crisis soon. “For,” said he to Mr. Aarons, "if I wait three years the other fellow will be back from Africa! My chance is now*—while he is at the other side of thc world, and she believes some brown-skinned Venus is rivaling her!" So it was agreed between these worthies to "put on thc screw,” for Mr. Hamilton, who was inclined to be too pitiful for his child, and “go too slow to suit them. "He owes me money—more than it will be convenient for him to pay all at once, or just at present—I’ll call that in," said Mr. Tremaine. “That’ll be turn of the screw number one, Aarons!" CHAPTER XLIV The First Turn of thc Screw. So, on the day after Flocrie’s de­ parture. Mr. Tremaine called on Mr. Hamilton early, before the latter Etieman went down town. He found seated at thc breakfast-table, all alone, and with a number of letters be­ fore him—most of them still unopen­ ed. The fact was that Mr. Hamilton’s attention had been so taken up by one letter, that he had scarcely notic­ ed the rest; it was a second letter from Bertie dare. It had been written in haste, and while smarting under the disappoint­ ment of Florie’s silence, and. coming straight from the lover’s wounded Herbs to Heal Those Sore, Sick Bronchial Tubes Gallagher'a Indian Lung Remedy comet right from thc Heart of Nature Don’t ba miserable all Winter.

He had known Bertie trim his birth. Knew him to be honest, honor­ able. true and brave, and that Florence and he adored each other. Could wealth—could worldy pride and posi­ tion—bless a woman as true love can bless? Could any benefits make up to Florrie for losing her lover? The father, vjho truly loved her. wavered at that thought. Was his course to­ ward these two trusting, loving hearts, a right or wise one? "I only desire her happiness.’ he sighed. "1 only seek my darling’s truest good?" And he laid the letter down and Eessed his hand upon his eyes, and gan to consider the case—in air its aspects—more quietly and dispassion­ ately than hitherto; and I do believe that—had his evil genius remained a wav—poor Florrie would have re­ ceived her letter. V ••.. ...... But suddenly Mr. Tremaine was an­ nounced. and entered, in apparent agi­ tation. His sharp eyes fell upon the letters on the table, but he affected not to see them. "So glad I caught." he said, as he shook the hand of the man he was eting to ruin, in a cordial, friendly lion. "Was afraid you would have started down town.” Then he went on, breathlessly: “Something quite unex­ pected has arisen—no time to explain —Aarons can put me in for a chance to realize almost cent per cent, if .1 bring him. within two hours. ten thousand dollars. Fancy—I can make it twenty thousand, and in two days! Now’s our opportunity Plenty others stand ready to grasp it. if we don’t. But all my money is tied up. If you could let me have the five thousand of your own—" Mr. Hamilton looked at him with a kind of terror. ’My dear fellow." he cried, "if I only could—but it’s impossible!" Mr. Tremaine's face clouded slightly; he sat down. "Impossible for you to add your five to mine? That’s what you mean of course." said he. “I’m sorry for that, for your sake. I gave you first chance, of course, but if you can’t take it. why you can’t. I shall have to make somebody else rich. then, for thc five thousand I have in your hands is all my available capital at present There isn't a minute to lose, however, so pray let me have it immediately."Mr. Hamilton was very pale. To this proud, sensitive, and—where his daughter’s love affairs were not con­ cerned-honorable gentleman, there was something terrible in being asked —actually asked—for moneys legally due. and feeling himself unable to re­ pay them. How much worse was it then, when he felt that, by his inability to pay a just debt, he must actually do an injury to the friend who had accommodated and trusted him. "My God!" he groaned, "it is im­ possible! I have been pressed of late— the purchase of those last shares hampered me—1 can’t raise one thous­ and dollars. Tremaine, on such short notice, far less five?" And they sat. looking into each other's faces, silent and pale— Mr. Hamilton agitated by a real emotion and distress; Mr. Tremaine scarcely lets excited by the earnestness with which he was playing his villainous part, and the interests he had at stake on it. "You can’t let me have my money,” he said, slowly and deliberately, at test. Then he laid down his hat (which he had been holding in his hand, as if in haste to go) and took off his gloves deliberately. “You mean that. Hamil­ ton? It’s overdue, you know." The other groaned again, and let his face fall on his hands, heavily. "Yes, I know it. God help me! I'd sooner have suffered anything than disappointed you. Tremaine, for friendship's sake—" "That’s mere sentiment.” said he. "I hope I have proved that I can do as much for friendship’s sake as another man; but this is a matter of business. Of course, under ordinary circumstan­ ces I shouldn’t have cared. My money is as safe in your hands as in my own. I presume. But here> a profit offered that doesn't come every day. If I can’t gel my money now, you are the direct cause of my losing five thousand dol­ lars!" And with that he arose and walked about the room, in well-acted chagrin and disappointment. "It’s a devilish provoking piece of ill luck!" said he. And sort certainly would have been if there had been any reality about it. Presently he came back to where Mr. Hamilton sat despondently with his head bowed down. and. resuming hss own seat, clapped his friend cheer­ ily upon the shoulder. “Never mind," said he. "Don’t grieve about it. It can’t be helped. You may be able to make it up to me some day. or Florence will if you don’t. What have you there? Letters? No bad news, I hope." Mr. Hamilton looked up suddenly and grasped his hand—gratitude over­ came him. "You true friend I" he cried, enthu­ siastically. “You generous—" "Tut, tut. tut," said Mr. Tremaine, laughing, "nothing of the kind; call me philosophical rather than generous. 1 put up with my loss because I can’t help it, my dear fellow; there's no great generosity in’ that, but a little bit of philosophy. No use making a row about it. If you can't, you can’t, and there's an end. You’ve got noth­ ing to thank me for.” But Mr. Hamilton’s gratitude would not be silenced. "1 shall never forget your conduct," he said. "You have spared me even a reproach. .Duly wait until I have a chance to serve you, and try me then; you shall see if George Hamilton for­ gets a kindness I" And poor Bertie's chance foe fair and honest dealing died in that hour. "Well, finsh your breakfast." said Mr. Tremaine, "and I’ll walk with you down town. What a lot of letters. I suppose there's not one from Florence among them, nor"—his tone deepened into sudden seriousness—"nor none from abroad?” Mr. Hamilton .looked anxiously and sorrowful as he took up the letter he had been reading. “Why. yes.” he said, “there is one from abroad. Tremaine. I’ve opened and read it, and I swear to you" he went on, earnestly—"the poor fellow writes so earnestly, so tenderlv. that it has touched me to the heart. After all. he is a good fellow, and they were children together, and love each other truly. I thought, when I read this letter”—he tapped lightly on it with his fingers as he spoke—"I thought that—if you had not loved her —I would have stood aside and let their true hearts speak, and consented to her marrying him! I say”—he add­ ed. very emphatically, as he saw Tremaine’s dark and angry face—“I say I would have done his. but foe you!” Tremaine held out his hand for Bertie's letter. "If you did that"—he said. “If you played me false about the woman I love—I love I—I should hold it vou far worse than the loss thousand dollars, be sure! > make you rue your treachery. Give her to another’s arms? I have to suffer such a pang as that, you shall share it with me! But what's the use of talking so?" he went on, flinging his ill humor aside. "1 know that I can trust you; our interest are one; and you have sworn that I shall be Florrie s husband. We must work'”' together, for that purpose, hand in hand." He held out his hand again, somewhat impatiently. "Come, show me the fellow’s letter!" Mr. Hamilton—slowly and unwilling­ ly. and with a heavy sigh—handed him poor Bertie’s letter. "I wish we could have worked by more honest means." he sighed. "1 feel like a thieving scoundrel I” Mr. Tremaine replied by a bitterly muttered curse that made his compan­ ion start. It was not directed against him. however. Mr. Tremaine had for­ gotten his very presence, being whoDy absorbed in this grieved andjoving let­ ter from Bertie Clare.

George G Pidgeon, D.D., said the United church was an adventure in faith church was an adventure in faith and and declared that it would say to every other Canadian church, "we arc ready to put everything on the table for a free and full discussion of the possible free and full discussion of the possi­ bilities of union, but there must be no reservations." Budgets totalling $3,400,000 for the missionary and maintenance fund have been allocated by the church this year. Rev. Peter Bryce, D.D., reported. He said the fund would be distributed on the basis of 42 per cent to home missions, 30 per cent, to foreign mis- sdions, 9 per cent to retired ministers and the balance to'theological colleges evangelism, social services, religious edcation, the general council and the treasury. The closing session of the conven­ tion was marked by addresses by Rev. Dr. James Endicott, former moderator, and J. H. Gundy, of Toronto. Dr. Endicott said that in a 60,000-mile tour of the world he had found the church performing effectively its high spiritu­ al and social task. The difficulties the church must overcome, he said, were the disinclination of the church to criticize itself and the reluctance of men to press to the logical point in their daily life the principles for which they professed. Mr. Gundy said the duty of the laymen who attended tif convention was to return and g’ leadership in the consecration of and money to the service of, . church. He referred to work • , time for our own .rs and a little more time to backing up these great men." Earlier in the day Rev. D. N. Me- Lachlin, D.D., of the evangelistic and social department of the church, de­ clared that the United church "be­ lieved that any system that docs not contain a clause for the prohibition of the manufacture, importation and sale for beverage purposes is incomplete.” The sad death occurred Friday of John Cattel at his late home, Mala- hide, in his 71st year, after an illness of eight months, which became serious two weeks ago confining hint to his bed.

Oct. 6 —The world's first "double gladiolus.” so called be­ cause it has a double ring of petal*. ha*J>een produced on the farms of J. Dallas Payne, floriculturist, known in Southwestern Michigan as "Richland's Luther Burbank." The double gladiolus was produced by Payne after years of experimen­ tation on his seven-acre gladiolus tract. The new flowers, said to ex­ ceed in beauty the ordinary varieties of gladioli, will be registered with the United States Department of Agricul­ ture as the "Chalice_“ the "King’s Cup", or the "Princess Pat." the pro­ ducer being still unable to decide on a name. It will be exhibited next year at the stale and national gladioli shows. Among other important devolpments at the Payne garden is a four-petal gladiolus extending somewhat farther from the stem than the ordinary gladiolus. It resembles a lily, and he calls it the "gladiolily." If you would be really happy, live as if there were no la'and no neigh - You must not judge me. I am below the _ ... fessor William Lyon Phelps.

Health Service of the Canadian Medi­ cal Association. Appendicitis is a public health prob­ lem because the public need to be told of the early symptoms »o that they may promptly secure proper treatment which will greatly reduce the present death-rate from this disease. In the majority of cases, appendicitis causes a condition that a physician will readily diagnose Pam towards the centre of the abdomen, followed by nausea and vomiting, is usually the first symptom. The pain varies tn in­ tensity; it may be of a griping char­ acter. Later the pain usually movei to the right lower part of the abdomen and the abdominal muscle* in that are* become hard and ten»e. This w nature's effort to protect the inflamed part.When any person—child or adult— ha* pain in the abdomen, even when the pain is not accompanied by nausea or vomiting, the family physician should be sent for at once. The onl/ satisfactory treatment for anpcndicitii is operation. The chance of recovery practically depend* upon the interval of time the onset of symptom* and the operation. To delay in securing proinnt treatment is to gamble with life itself. ' There *« one thing in particular that w-ill do a tremendous amount of harm and that will, in many cases, greatly lessen or take away the chance of r covery, and that is the u»e of a purg tive or laxative.No person, whan suffering from all dominal pain, should take or be given a purgative or laxative unless ordered |to do so by a physician. The loss of engage- | bowel movements is not going to do any harm, whereas the activity stirred up by a purgative, when nature ha* kept the bowel quiet on account of an | inflamed appendix, may be disastrous. Abdominal pain is sufficient reason for calling the family physician.

Oct. 6.—The Cleveland Railway Company has begun its cam­ paign to make street ear riders out of motorists, using as its inducements luxurious cars that give every con­ venience in speed and comfort known to car makers. Twelve new trains of two.cars each have been placed in service and more are to appear from time tv time. They are equipped with comfortable individ­ ual "bucket type” chair*, and the old familiar straps and bar* for tho*e standing have disappeared "Hand holds” on the sides of the seats furnish facilities for the standups to support themselves. Mahogany finish throughout, soft lights, speedy service, automatic heat­ ing devices and many ether innova­ tions are features which the company hopes will be effective in getting the motorists to leave their machines at home and ride down town and back, minus the parking problems that con­ front them now. Vestiblues allow passengers to pass from one car to another, Only one motorman and one conductor are needed. New Canning Method Keeps Peaches Fresh Hammonton. N.J.. Oct. 6.—A discov­ ery that may revolutionise the canning industry was reported here when Thomas F. McGregor, Philadelphia scientist, conducting experiments un­ der the auspices of the Hammonton chamber of commerce opened * can containing a bushel of rlw peaches hermetically sealed three weeks ago and found them perfectly preserved. The fruit was picked three weeks ago and placed in several cans from which air had been expelled and nitrogen substituted in an attempt to arrest putrefaction. The preserving opera­ tion was viewed by scientists from the Franklin Institute of Philadelphia, horticulturists and canners. One. two. three, four, five and six months hence the cans will be opened before the same group to ascertain whether fruit will remain fr*sh indefinitely.
