The triplets arc one year old and arc all hale and hearty. They are widely known in Tillsonburg. and people from outside points have made special trips to sec them. Port Burwell Wins the Cup The final game between Tillsonburg and Port Burwell in the Ox ford-Elgin baseball league, played on neutral grounds at Springfield on Saturdaj afternoon ending in the sixth innings when the fans took possession of the diamond and the umpires in charge lost control of the game. With Port Burwell at bat in the sixth and lead ing by a score of 5 to 3 with Diehl on second base and LaFortunc .on first and Travis batting. He hit a Ipt grounder to third oasc which was fielded on the base line between second and third and Diehl ran out of the line to avoid being tagged after which Stilwell threw to first for a double play. Hase umpire Harris was watching the play at first and Umpire Gibson who was in charge of the game called Diehl out at 3rd. Then an awful howl was made from the Port Bur well benches and Diehl was instructed to stay on third base by the manage ment. Then the fans took the situ ation in "hand and stormed the dia mond and held up play for sometime. Umpires changed their decisions sev eral time and by so doing lost control of the game. Umpire Harris also said at first he didn’t sec the play and then after being influenced by the fans said he did and was in favor of calling the man safe. Umpire Gibson then took off his pads and said he was through and walked away to his car. Later he was influenced by Pt. Burwel manage ment to come back and rendered an ultimatum that he gave each team five minutes to play the game. Manager Smith asked him what about the de cision, He says very heatedly, “He’s safe," also “I will change my decision four or five times more if I like." That ended the game and Umpire Gibson gave the game to Port Burwell. Executive Decides At a meeting of the executive at Aylmer, on Tuesday, evening it was decided by a majority of one vote to call Port Burwell winner of the dis trict. Port Burwell has a splendid ball team and it is very unfortunate that outside umpires had not been secured for these play-off games, as they required competant men. A great deal of disatisfaction with the umpires has been heard on all sides. Player* Hurt Howey hit a deep fly to. right field and as Clocs went to-catch same he stepped in a hole and. fell, the ball rolling through the fence for a home run and three runs came across the plate. Then when Clocs failed to regain his feet it was realized he was hurt. Medical aid was summoned and first examination revealed the muscles and ligaments badly toni. “Pat," as he is known by the fans, is a star batter and fielder on the team and* his loss was deeply felt. In the second in nings Smith and Alexander crashed together after a fly ball and were both knocked out for some time. Straffordville Fair Owing to the bleak cold day, the at tendance at Straffordville Fair was not as large as formerly, nevertheless the fair was a pronounced success. The exhibits were lar_ge and created a great deal of interest. The usual number of refreshment booths and games were present. Among the special attractions, a softball game was staged between the Massey-Harris tealn Tillsonburg and a picked team from Straffordville, which resuted in a win for the Mas sey Harris of 11 to JO..

Debenture* for Sale for Women’* Institute Barnett Bros. Circus Visits Tillsonburg Barnett Bros.’ circus, a purely Can adian institution and originating in Nova Scotia, visited Tillsonburg yes terday afternoon and evening, and gave good satisfaction to patrons who were present in large numbers. There were two rings, and the program was a varied and pleasing one. following the usual line of circuses. There were the inevitable concerts at the close of both afternon and • evening performances. Probably for the first time at a circus here sheep were among the performing animals, they doing a minor act. Ponies were njorc in evidence than horses, and dogs outnumbered mon keys. , Clowns were plentiful, nor was it only children who laughed at their antics. There were the usual side shows. .‘1 “Roughnecks" were conspicuous by their absence, and of short change art ists there were none. Everybody was courteous, everyone was apparently out to make a good name for the circus, which is in its first year, and, we under stand, will come this way again next year. The street parade at noon was wit nessed by hundreds of people, many of them from townships, and with cages open the managcrie could be viewed as the motor-driven wagons moved along. There were two bands and a calliope, also pipers. The show carries 175 people, of whom the advance guard arrived on Tuesday evening. The press representative is Mr. W. M. G Thoms, a former news- Hicr publisher, and a "live wire." Mr. oms says, “Watch us grow," and is confident that there will be marked growth in this Canadian show.

The News is of the opinion that the remedy for the present complaint is to a great extent a matter of educating the pub lic to the threatening extent of the sit uation. and thereby enlisting support. Thc News, concluding its article, says thc industry in its section is threatened with extinction, owing to American competition, if something is not done: "The impression appears current in quarters that thc fruit growers in the Okanagan, in addition to enjoying an easy life under most pleasurable con ditions and in Iwatitii'ul surroundings, wax fat on the sweat wrung from the •row of those sterling fellows the train growers.

Justice Fisher laid great stress on the menace of reckless motor driving on theohighways of Ontario and intimated that he was thoroughly in sympathy with the movement to have every citizen of Ontario a traffic officer."It is the duty of every citizen who secs a motorist driving in a reckless manner," he said, "to give information to the police, and if every citizen does his duty in this respect great benefits will result."

I Quickly Digested SCOTT'S EMULSION North Bayham School Fair A moit Gratifying Succei»—A Great Showing of Live Stock—Singing one of the Feature.— Myrtle Ray- Mo nd, of S.S. No. 23, Win. Eaton Champiomhip. Thc following five schools in North Bayham, Nos. 11, 16, 17, 18 and 23, held their annual school fair at S.S. No. 16, Corinth, where a handsome new school has recently been erected. This school is surely a credit to any rural district as it not only serves as an Institute of learning but the base ment has been fitted up as an audi torium, and except for electric lights, is on an equal basis with many city schools. The school fair tent was well fill ed with exhibits of the boys and girls and in many classes there was very keen competition. While the exhibits of writing and art were not as large as in some pre vious years, there was a splendid showing in the classes of vegetables and oats. The domestic science classes were well fitted and some very neat entries in the sewing classes. There was also a splendid display of flowers, with some excellent specimens of gladioli, asters and dahlias.That thc young boys of this district arc keenly interested in live stock was evident from the excellent calves entered in both dairy and beef breeds, also in their stock judging competi tion, which was conducted by W. A Davidson. Thc Strathcona exercises were put on in splendid' manner, with first place going to S.S. 18A, with Miss R. Oatman in charge, and S.S. No. 16A. Miss Amoss, teacher, a close second. Qne of thc new features of thc fairs has been thc introducing of school choruses and the manageiqpnt are pleased to note the interest being tak en in this line. Not only are the pupils singing in a school chorus but it is hoped to encourage thc young folk in the solo class, and the classes Cierday included five girls and two s contestants. Perhaps the most amusing feature of thc competitions was thc whistling, Miss Elizabeth Richwood of S.S. No. 16 being thc winner.) The T. Eaton Cup was won in this district by Miss Myrtle Raymond, S.S. No. 23, scoring 45 points, while Miss Margaret Ronson won thc second prize, a set of books, scoring 40 points, and Miss Marcitite McCurdy of S.S. No. 11 winning thc third prize, also a set of books, donated by thc T. Eaton Co., and very interesting for school children.

Holman (Niagara Falls Evening Review) In compiling a list of women ac tively interested in public service it is difficult to know where to begin the list, and because thc Local Council of Women has an affiliation of thirty- three representative groups of women in the city and township, it was decid ed to present first thc president of that organization, Mrs. A j. Holman. Mrs. A. J. Holman is probably one of thc best known women tn thc county and while she resides on thc boundry line of the city, on thc historic PortSge Road, she has always been interested in thc welfare of Niagara Falls and taken an active part in much good work done in thc municipality. It was eighteen years ago. five years after coming here from Tillsonburg, that Mrs. Holman made her debut in public life, as educational instructress for the branch legion of the W.GT.U.. arranging for silver and gold medal contests. Under direction of Professor Bris tow, Mrs. Holman sang in Drummond Hill Presbyterian church choir for four years and latterly she has been a mem ber of the Board of Managers, is at present Treasurer of thc Building Fund, and has headed thc Ladies' Aid Society for seven years. Discussing her past activities with thc Review. Mrs Holman said that probably the work from which she reaped thc most satisfaction, was her instruction of a class of eleven boys in thc Drummond Hill Sunday school. In that group were prominent young men, Allister Butters, Howard Acrcson, Ivan and Caswell Walker, Gordon Skinner. Jack Zybach, George Bullock, Herbert Biggar and several others, who studied the Bible under her direction. They began when they were little tots and their feet could scarcely touch the floor, and they remained until thc Great War began and they responded to the Empire’s call for help. These boys have all made good and it isxa lasting satisfaction for Mrs. Holman, who rose early every Sunday morning to be in her place when the school assembled. Mrs. Holman's next interest was the Young Women's Christian Association, and after a year on thc directorate as educational convener, she was elected president, and held that position for five years. During that time tax ex emption was secured. $3,000 was paid off the mortgage on the buildings, and the Y.W.C.A. was renovated and im proved. For thc past year Mrs. Holman has been a member of thc Women's Hos pital Auxiliary.. Her interest now is concentrated to a large evtent on thc Local Council of Women, with which she has been as sociated for thc past four years, until last year being vice-president. Upon the retirement of Mrs. Harry M. King from thc president's chair, Mrs. Hol man was last year elected to head the oiKanization, and the outstanding achievement of the year was thc suc cessful League of Nations Society membership drive, in which this city ranked second with all the cities of the Dominion, and the establishment of a Cod Liver Oil Fund to provide this requisite for needy children. Mrs. Holman is very modest about everything that she has done, and de clares that things just automatically happened, and the was more or less “pushed" into them. Her activities have been actuated by a desire to better tht conditions of women and children, and at present she hopes that there will be women among the Board of Education candi dates this year, not because the pres ent Board is not functioning in a most efficient manner, but because she be lieves that women should take a greater interest in municipal affairs, and this is a good beginning. Any success that she has had in her public career, Mrs. Holman attributes to the loyalty and co-operation of the executive boards, who have always stood by her and given every assjs- atnee. Being president of the organiz ation, Mrs. Holman says, is not all glory and honor, because one is always subject to unkind criticism and mis judgment. but she has always taken a pleasure in spending hours planning and carrying out plans for greater happiness to residents in thc citv and community.“Praying for guidance, doing the best you can and trying to be fair to all. is as much as a person can do in life." declares Mrs. Holman, and this has al ways been her motto. Mrs. Holman has successfully com bined motherhood and wifehood with a full program of public welfare work and no one has been neglected. Often it is said that a woman who spends time attending meetings and social gatherings must neglect her home, but that has not been the case with this energetic woman, as a visit to her home at any time will convince one. Whether you call at seven in the morning or at the same hour in the evening it will be found immaculately clean and everything in its place. Thc secret of this is "system” and “every thing in its place." Besides her home, Mrs. Holman often helps in the garden and the large greenhouse, assisting her husband and son. . 1 A Peace Crusade By United Church General Council Decide. On Thi. After Receiving Report of Committee— Is Loyal to Gallant Dead—$354,000 Is to Be Asked for Annually for Main tenance of Extension Fund. Winnipeg, Sept. 12.—By unanimous vote the General Council last night carried its committee's report calling the United Church of Canada to a new crusade for peace. Hon. N. W. Rowell, moving adoption, declared thc church's duty to be the creating of a will to peace. Rejecting tbe extreme pacifist posi tion, the United Church's sessional committee on war and peace adopted a statement expressing satisfaction with acts of Governments, and warning against undue optimism. Thc report, which was presented by thc chairman, Hon. Mr. Rowell, while acknowledging “the evidences of a new and better day," as found in the peace- inspired acts of many governments, says: “We cannot blind our eyes to thc existence of conditions among thc na tions which contain the threat of war. The presence of immense standing armies, the development of great na vies and the creation of mighty air fleets cannot but be an occasion of un rest and constitute an ever present re minder that we have not yet passed from the menace of war. In these things we hear a call to the Church to enter on a new crusade. We hold it to be the duty of the Church to lead and to develop thc peace purpose of thc nations, its especial task being thc cre ation of a Christian public opinion and thc obliteration from the national life of such continual evils as racial antip athies, selfish nationalism and inter national iealousief. “We hold that only when we are convinced that when* justice and free dom are manifestly at stake and will be lost if we fail to stand in defence of them dare we resort to force. That, possibly, alas, we cannot exclude. But, all the more for that, we hold ourselves dedicated to the fulfilment of thc 'drcam born in a herdsman's shed, which is thc Kingdom of Peace in the Holy Ghost. “The United Church in declaring her will for peace and her purpose to con secrate herself to its attainment be- lie^^that she is loyal to the gallant company of our dead, whose sacrifice apart from us shall not be made per fect." * Social Service Plan* Evangelism and social service was the high light of yesterday afternoon's discussion. After various reports touching on the church’s fihancial standing, and the problems of a new pension fund for the ministry, the afternoon session was given over exclusively to the report of thc committee on evangelism and so cial service, many of the distinguished members of the church contributing to the discussion. Consideration of thc problems of evangelism and social service. Uork was not completed. The report will be fur ther discussed at Wednesday evening's session. Rev. Dr. W. R. McIntosh of London, Ont., who moved thc reception of the report, declared it was “a multilateral pact to outlaw worldliness and evil." What was sought was a deepening of Faith and a world-wide revival of re ligion. Such a' revival, however, could not be promoted in any official or arti ficial way. A deeper interest in the salvation of the world is most earnestly desired on thc part of most cultured Canadians, declared Dr. McIntosh, but no one is asked to commit intellectual suicide. Work Among Young People Principal John Mackay, of Manitoba College, Winnipeg, in asking for fur ther consideration of thc report on evangelism and social service, urged thc importance of the subject. Especi ally thc work among thc young folk. Other speakers voiced thc sentiments of Principal Mackay, including Rev. Dr. D. N. McLachlan, Rev. Henry Carter, general secretary' of thc social department, Wesleyan Church, Eng- and, and Rev. Dr. G. A. Macintosh of Montreal. Dr. McLachlan, in a brief address, referred to Government control of liquor, and quoted a mass of statistics proving, he declared, that control by the Government was not “the solution of this world eviL” Financial Report Earlier in the day, the report of the finance committee was presented and accepted. The committee presented a very satisfactory report, dealing in de tail with the progress made in the :hurch's finances during the past year. The pensions fund also was discussed, but further consideration was post- Bied until today. It is proposed that 0,000 be provided annually from the maintenance and extension fund, and that thc sum of $3,000,000 be asked from members oj the church through out Canada. A Bible class teacher was relating to her pupils thc story of Lot's wife. "A wonderful thing happened," she said: "Lot's wife looked around, and there and then she was turned into a pillar of salt." “Please, miss, I know one better than that," said a young Irish girl from the back of thc room. "My missus was going along the street the other day, and kept on looking round till sud denly she lurned into a public-house.” PBEOTON.ONT.

Dr. W. E. Baker, inspector for the Ontario department of agriculture un der the Better Bull Act, was in Oxford county this week checking up a few complaints regarding owners of grade bulls allowing their animals to run at Urge.

September ZRh,19Z8 The Tillsonburg News Page Eleven A Woman Wronged -----OR----- The Secret of a Crime BY CAROLINE HART CHAPTER XXXIII Breakers Ahead “Help me to forget my dream I” Hel en cried, clinging to Bertie, as he strove to soothe her, and casting wild wild looks of terror all around. “Help me to forget I" And even while she so cried, even while she glanced around her, she had forgotten. For at a little distance from where she stood, some of the sailors were e'ng with a large, bright-plumaged that had been brought on one of the many little boats that carried on a petty traffic between the ships and the shore- The bird was of the macaw tribe, and had long tail feathers of scarlet and.blue and gold, and a black and golden-crested head; and being teased and fed by the laughing sailors was chattering and screaming shrilly. “Oh, the pretty bird I” Helen cried, clapping her hands with almost child ish delight, and laughing with pleasure. “Oh, the funny, beautiful bird! Buy him for me, Bertie I" The bird was bought accordingly, and his new mistress carried him, bribed by a liberal display of luscious fruits to perch upon her wrist, to her cabin, exhibiting all the nave de light in her new possession that a child displays over its toys. “Ill teach him to talk,” she said. “Sweet bird I pretty bird I" and even her new treasure of the toilet and dress were forgotten. Then Bertie and Dr. Searle, seeing their patient so busily occupied, called old Sue aside, and began to question her as to the recent alarm. But Sue, who had bitterly repented her own imprudent curiosity, was much too acute to furnish any information that would have compromised herself. "I dunno nothin* about, it cap’cn.” she said, with the most innocent air in the world. "We was lookin’ obcr de pretty things you bringed from de town, and seems like somethin’ sud- —dently’ minded her. She cries out. ’oh, my dream I’ and dat’s jist all I knows about it. Dere is somethin’." added the old woman, with a myster ious and positive air, "dere is some thin* what bothers de chile “in her dreams. “In her dreams, Sue I” Both Bertie and the doctor echoed those words together. “What do you mean," Searle went on, persistently, “by ‘bothers her in her dreams’?" “Well!" Sue began, with a provok- ingly meditative air, “I dunno as I kin 'zactly explain dal. Sometimes, in de night, when she’s aslccpin* ever so sound, she’ll start, and cry out sudden ly. Awful frightened cries dey is, too; —like she was skeered o’ somethin'— and she'll moan, too—and mutter”— the old woman drew closer to her listeners—“about de pore little dead chile, what she neber seems to think of when she’s awake!" The two men exchanged ’ anxious looks. “What does she mutter?” Searle asked, earnestly. “’My baby! my baby!* it’s mostly dat," answered Sue, "And once she said, quite plain, ’you vilainl it's for my baby's sake I*.I begs pardon cap- ’en,” added Sue, with an idea that those words might be somewhat per sonal to him, "but dem wa* her own words!” “And these visions of the night are forgotten in the day, thank Heaven!" said Searle, earnestly. "You saw for yourself to-day, Bert, the effect of even some passing recollection. God grant that this merciful oblivion may continue until some good end is to be attained by her awakening!" “Amen!" said Bertie, fervently. “Go to her. Sue, and keep good watch over her, and say nothing of this mat ter to any one." Which instructions Sue obeyed, ex cept in so far as remarking to her son that there was "somethin’ mighty queer in dis affair!" a sentiment in which the whole crew coincided, when he, as usual, imparted it to them. As for Jem Lowe—who has before been spoken of—so queer did it seem to him, that, in spite” of his boast that he "should not say anything to Poll about the mater,” he actually sat down to write thq story to her. ."A fellow ought to write to his sweet heart when he gels a chance!" he told himself—"and o' course I'll cau tion her not to say nothing. Besides, she may have been mistook, and Miss Hamilton mayn't be nothing to the captain, after all.” So he wrote—after some general news: "Some of us think there's been a wed ding on board, though a precious quiet one. A girl has throwed herself into the water—folks say—sooner than let her sweetheart sail without her. To be sure, she had a baby to show for a reason. Anyway, we took her aboard, and all I know is that she sails in the captain's cabin, and we all calls her Mrs. Gare. But Polly, my lass, see ing these ain’t no concerns of ourn, don’t you say nothing to Miss Hamil ton.” Jem had got leave to go below to write this letter. So absorbed was he in thes task that, being alto gether out of his usual line line, re quired the concentration of all his energies, that certain familiar sounds fell on his ear without conveying to him their actual meaning. The steady tramp of feet, the dragging and rank ing of a heavy chain, the cheery voices of the men working together, and with a will, all these fell on his ears unnot iced. All at once a ' voice—calling "good-bye" from a boat that at that moment rowed past his little window —roused him to a sudden and instant comprehension of the fact that the "Saucy Jahc" had weighed anchor and was starting out upon her long voyage once more. With a cry of disappointment he closed the letters which he had just completed and hurried upon deck. Sure enough, they were standing out for sea again with a fair wind filling the white sails, and innumerable little boats—and one of which might have taken his letter— making their way back to the shore. Not thinking what he did in his momentary surprise and vexation, Jem Lowe sprang to the rigging and hailed the nearest boat. As the first syllable of a stentorian shout left his lips, however, the captain’s firm, strong hand upon his arm, and the captain’s steady voice in his ears, startled and silenced him. “Too late, my man,” said Herbert, quietly and kindly. “What was it? A letter home? You must wait until we reach our next port." Jem touched his cap. “All right, captain," said he, and then added to himself regretfully, “I would ha’ liked Polly to ha’ got it, too!" With that his eyes fell on the en velope in his hand, and the captain’s almost unconsciously followed their example-- In that one glance Bertie read the address. “Miss Polly Greene, care of George Hamilton, Esq.—’’ Thrown off his guard by the sur prise, Bertie uttered a cry. His face turned pale, and the finger with which he pointed to the address, trembled violently. "You know Mr. Hamilton?" he said Jem touched his cap again. “No, sir," said he. "But my sweet heart, Polly, is his daughter's maid. Her letters goes to Mr. Hamilton’s house, that’s all I” "That’s all!” Bertie walked away, turning those two words over thoughtfully, but without saying another word to Jem. Was that all? What might not Jem have written to his sweetheart? The episode of Helen’s rescue from drown ing, and the subsequent birth and death of her babe were not matters that were likely to be passed over or forgotten in a sailor’s letter home. Be sides which Bcrtieewas very sensible of the fact that Helen's presence and affectionate familiarity with himself were calculated to compromise him— and actually did comprise him—in the opinions of his men. What if Jem had written Polly the idle gossip and speculation of the crew, and if Polly should retail it to her mistress! It occurred to him, suddenly and uncom fortably, that Florence had had her maid a long time and was much at tached to her. If Jem’s letter went to Mr. Hamilton’s house, would that indeed be “all" of it? "Thank God he was too late to send it!" Bertie muttered to himself. "I’ve escaped that danger, this time, any way! By the next time he writes, poor little Nell's affair will be an old story, and he'll hardly think of writing it again." . He was right in that calculation, at least. Jem Lowe had no idea of allow ing his time and labor to be wasted. He carried the unlucky letter down below, to his locker, and there stowed it safely away. "I ain’t going to have a job like that go for nothing," thought he. "You lie there"—to the letter—"till we make a port again; you'll be just as good then as now. So long as Polly gets a letter now and then, I reckon she won't much care when 'twas written." CHAPTER XXXIV Father and Suitor Meantime, at home, things had fall en back into their old familiar grooves, and were going on much the same as usual. Amy Gordon had gone back to her home at Clifftown, where poor Helen's fate had grown to be an old story, whose interest had faded and paled. Needless is it to say that no tidings of the lost girl came to the watchers at Gifftown Beach, where the "curious sea-weed” still hung in Peter Smith’s poor cabin, thick with gray dust, and forgotten by all. Out upon Black Rock Point a tuft of hardy sea-grass had sprung up from Oven heat is automatically controlled in the new Lady Betty THE problem of successfully cooking and baking by control led heat has long engaged the atten tion of the best cooks and domestic science experts. In the new Beach gas range, the Lady Betty, it has been perfected. the tiny crevice where lay Helen's ring, and hidden the little glittering witnesr most effectually. Helen's effects were packed away in an empty room of Gordon House—wait ing for her brother to return and claim them. Helen's name was never more mentioned in the house, by Mrs. Gordon's expressed desire. “For talk ing of her can do her no good, and makes us wretched,” that lady argued. And indeed, except by faithful Amy— who carefully treasured the cloak she had found on the shore, and, even yet, sometimes wept over it—except by Kir Amy's faithful, girlish heart, len, and Helen’s supposed terrible fate, were—in Gifftown at least—well- nigh forgotten. For time was flying on. And, as he sweeps with his keen sickle right and left, how few fond and tender memories does he leave behind him? Nearly three months had gone since those awful screams broke the silence of an August night at Clifftown Beach; and, as the winter came early to this wild coast, the first storm of the season—dashing a brig upon the dangerous Black Rock Point, and strewing the shore for miles along with wreck and death—furnished the simple Gifftown people with fresh ex amples of woe and suffering, in pres ence of which Helen and her probable fate lost interest and were presently forgotten. But Florence and Amy thought of her, and secretly cherished the hope of revenging her wrongs. Obedient to Amy's teaching, Florence had com pelled herself to show some civlity to Mr. Tremaine, at least; though only a very bold or a very vain man could have construed her gentle tolerance into anything like favor or liking. Mr. Tremaine was neither vain enough nor bold enough for this mis take. "She doesn't like me," he said to her father. "Absence doesn’t seem to wean her from her old fancy, and she looks on me as an intruder. There's been no letter, yet I suppose, and bet ter if none came to her at all!" Mr. Hamilton answered him in a conciliating and depreciating manner, and with an uneasy smile. "You arc too impatient, Tremaine. Florric is no such giddy-patc that she should forget her old liking in a few months’ time. But we shall do well if the three years prove long enough to do our work in! Yes,"—with a doubt ful glance and hestitating tone—"yes, there has been a letter—this morn ing!" Tremaine sprang to his feet with an oath. "And you never told me! And you let her have it!" Then he con trolled himself and sat down again. "This was not according to our agree ment, Hamilton. I don't think you are playing me fair." Mr. Hamilton drew his chair near er and spoke with a shamefaced air. “I acted for the best," he said._"She has been looking so pale and anxious of late, and there's no use in doing things too suddenly—we shall have lots of time. Yes—I let the poor girl have her letter; but—but I read it first I" Tremaine came up doser to him. “You did?" he said, "Well,you were justified in that, of course. And what sort of a letter was it?" “Written evidently in great haste; brief and to the point; very disap pointing,! should think, to the girl who loves him, and has been waiting and longing for a few loving words. To tell the truth, Tremaine. I think it will do your case more good than harm if you play your cards properly." "As how?” said Tremaine, eagerly. "For I am in earnest in this matter. I love your beautiful girl, who is so cold to me; and your interests and mine arc indentical. In fact, I need not re mind you that your interest lies in making me your son-in-law. How can this fellows letter benefit me, then? what would you have me to do?" “His neglect, indifference, coldness— whichever of these faults or crimes in him she may think responsible for this strangely short letter—cannot fail to wound and disappoint her." said Mr. Hamilton. “If I wondered at the brevity of his letter, how much more strange must it appear to her? Why, he doesn't even tell her where to write, an oversight caused by his haste, I suppose, and consequently she can’t answer him till until she hears again. Now, while she is smarting under this wound of seeming neglect, is your time to form a conrast by your devotion. Don't shirk the subject that's nearest to her heart; congratulate her on hav ing heard from Herbert, and speak well of him, and thus you'll win her confidence and liking. Yes—my inter ests are bound up with yours; but it isn't that. I wouldn't give you my girl for merely that. But I know you love her. You have cause to know that I am not quite so rich as the world thinks, and yet you desire Florence none the less for that." Tremaine laughed wit h a forced carlcssness that had a secret uneasi ness in it in spite of him. “You’ll be richer than ever you were if our speculations turn out well." he said, "and I have no fear of that. If I hadn’t been sure of them—so sure that I have invested considerable of my own money—I should hardly have recommended them to my intended father-in-law. For though, as you say. money* would make no difference to me where my love for Florence is concerned—still I am too practical a man of the world to Ipve her any less because she may bring me a fortune. So, though you have promised her to me, rich or poor, I sec no reason to fear but that the investments we made will make a millionarie of you in the long run, and fairly rich men both of us.” Mr. Hamilton sighed. “God grant it I" he said, anxiously, “for my child's sake, for she could ill bear poverty. All my life I have been content to grow richer slowly and surely, and have disliked these bold and daring methods that lead to swift er ahd greater ends. But the slow ways are so slow, and the wealth is but moderate after all, and your plans offer such a glorious gain, if we suc ceed—" “We shall succeed I" said Tremaine, cheerfully. “I have succeeded well, already. Only use your influence, your lawful authority with Florence, to save I her from this low, poor marriage, with a man upon whose name his sister’s error has now cast a stain; only do this, and let her be my wife, and trust me she never shall know aught of poverty I” George Hamilton held out his hand. /'None but you shall have her," he said. "I’m with- you heart and soul. But we must be cautious and patient, and not alarm her. You shall marry her. There's my hand upon the bargain I" They shook hands warmly. "I give you my hand with all my heart in it!" said Tremaine, smiling, and those who knew him best might have said—had they chosen to be cynical—that, even if this were so, his hand w-ould not have be«n uncomfort ably filled. CHAPTER XXXV A Puzzle Poor Florrie was dissappointed in deed. To have waited so long, and built such hopes upon this letter, and then to receive only a few brief lines, was surely cruel enough. But Florrie had a further grievance. Bertie, in his haste and confusion, had entirely forgotten to tell her where she might address an answer. And next to the pleasure of hearing from the beloved is the pleasure of writing to him. To feel-that you are writing for him alone—that the act for the moment annihilates space and time, and brings your souls into close communion, though the bodies be so far apart—to kiss the paper his dear hands shall presently touch, and pour out, on the fair sheet, thoughts, hopes, loves which the lips, however eloquent or confiding, could hardly put into words. Someone has said that “the in terchange of loving letters is a com pensation for absence and separation.” While I, for my part, don’t go so far as to endorse this sentiment about "compensation," I certainly think there is an immense amount of con solation in it. , " This- consolation Florence could not have. After waiting three months for a letter from her love, she must wait perhaps as long again before she could know- where to send an answer. And why was his letter so brief. There must have been plenty of time and innumerable opportunities for him to write; why had he neglect ed them? “Dear Florence—I write these few lines just as we arc entering our first port, to let you know that I am safe and well, so far; all well on board. I will write at length on the first opnor- tunity. Adieu, dearest girl. "Yours faithfully ever. Bertie.” This was the letter. Florence read it many times, with growing disap pointment and dismay. “It is just such a letter as he might have written to Helen!" she thought, and great tears gathered and began to falL "Does he not wish to hear from me?" she questioned her heavy heart the heavier actually for that cold, brief letter that lay over it. “It hasn't cheered her," was Tremaine's thought, as she greeted him that evening with a languid smile; but he affected not to notice her sad ness, and set to work to cheer her. “So glad you have had news from Captain Clare," said he. "A fine fellow and a fine sailor, I am sure. And what sort of voyage has he had thus far? and what far away port does he write from?" She could answer that. It pleased and comforted her to talk of him, even if his treatment of her was un kind. She answered Tremaine mor cordi ally than usual. He noticed that, and improving his opportunity, talked to her of Africa, of the voyage, of the natives, and talked interesting and well, too. Florrie list ened like one enthralled. The poor girl w-as almost sorry when ten o'clock struck, and he arose to go. “How* pleasant he can be when he chooses," she thought. “And how well informed he is, too. I never thought that Mr. Tremaine could be so nice!” And actually, when she went to rest that night, she had found more con solation in Tremaine’s talk than in poor unlucky Bertie's letter. Mr. Hamilton congratulated his fel low conspirator as he badc him good. “You've made a point,” he said. "Talk Africa to her, my boy, until she’s tired of it." “All right. I must read the subject up," said Mr. Tremaine. Meantime Florence, sitting under the hands of her maid, having her long dark tresses combed preparatory to going to bed, chancing to lift her eyes to the glass, noticed that her pretty attendant's face bore traces of recent tears. “Why, what's the matter, Polly, dear?" said she, for she was fond of the girl, and sorry for her distress. “Votive been crying." Polly began to cry again, and to blush and flutter a little also. “Yes, miss," she said, sobbing. "You see, miss, you got a letter to-day, and I felt so disappointed. If I could only ha' known it was all safe and well! You see, miss," Polly went on, not very clearly, because of her blushes and tears, “Jem Lowe, he's my beau, and he’s aboard her.” “Aboard the 'Saucy Jane* !” Flor ence w’hipped round like a flash with those words. “Why, Polly, how de lightful! And you got no letter? How- strange!” With thought for the strange brevity of her own—“There must be some reason for it; storms, or something wrong But they're all well on board, Polly; Captain Clare says so, so you may be sure of that I" Polly brightened immediately. "Oh, I'm so glad!” she cried. "Jem is kind o’ lazy about writing, but won't 1 write and blow him up! Where will letters reach them, miss?" Florrie'sjace fell sadly. "Alas! I don’t know." she said. "Cap tain Gare wrote in such haste that he forgot to give me an address. We can't write to them, Polly." Polly stared. "In such haste—after three months, nearly," said she. “And Jem not writ in at all! Well, I think there's somc- hting queer about that, miss—what can it be. I wonder?" And Florence w-ondered too, with all her late sadness and disappoint ment in full force again, but mistress and maid, let them puzzle over the problem as they would, could only go on wondering. CHAPTER XXXVI The First Point in the Game. Mr. Tremaine "read up" the African question according to his declared in tention, and came again to talk with Florence upon the subject nearest to her heart. For the first time in their acquaintance she was really glad to see him. and it did not escape the keen-eyed plotter that she came for ward to welcome him with a bright and ready smile. “Good!" was his mental commen tary. “I begin to think that I shall make my new geographical researches pay. But if she were not beautiful, and strangely charming, to me, and her father rich cnought to gild the matrimonial dose—I should scarcely care to continue in the game.” But, even while he pondered thus, he knew he was juggling with his own heart and conscience; knew that his passion for this girl, so long baffled by adverse circumstances so keenly and cruelly provoked by her indifference to himself, and open favor of a rival's (Continued on page 12) For Home Made Pickles Follow the lead of representative women everywhere and make mustard pickles in your own home this year.

As her small, and delicate hand lay for a moment inJii* own, its light touch thrilled him with strange power. His eyes, cast down respectfully as raised her own. had lingered every detail of her lovely girlish figure, and tasteful dress, with an expression that, could she have seen it. would have filled her with disgust and fear ;and he merely touched the hand she gave, and then suffered it to fall, because he felt that he dared not continue the contact that so thrilled him. lest be should suddenly and madly east aside all self-control, and clasp her in a pas sionate embrace. He shuddered as he thought what the consequences of such an act of madness might be, actually shuddered •nd turned pale. Florence saw this, and sympathized gently. “I am afraid you are not well," said she. anxiously, and the words, being Correctly interpreted, would have been found to mean: “I am afraid you will not feel much inclined to talk of Africa!" He was learned enough in women's hearts lo guess at that interpretation, too; and the half-sad, half-grateful smile he gave her, came within one of being a scowl of hatred for poor, absent Bert. “She would smile just as sweetly, and those maddening soft brown eyes of her* would look just a* anxiously and tenderly on some druken. one- ' armed ruffian of a beggar-sailor, if he told her he had ever been to Africa, as they do on me!" he thought furi ously; and ground his teeth in silent rage over the conviction that this was Still, he would have grudged the beggar-sailor even that smile, and was glad enough to secure it for himself, even under false pretences; so he sigh ed pathetically as he answered her: Bad Legs Read This!

She could pity his love in gentle, womanly fashion, as soon as'she was sure that he himself recognized its hopelcssncs. and an air of subdued, submissive melancholy, as new in him as it was becoming, gave her assur ance of this fact. There' was no more of his usual persistent attention, amounting, as it had done at times, almost to obtrusive boldness; in its place was a gentle, respectful kindness, and a winning wish to please. that would have gone straight to any un suspecting woman's heart, as they did lo Florrie's. The effect was immediate, and most favorable to the schemer's wishes. Hitherto she had shrunk from him, with a feeling of annoyance and uneasy fear; now she began to look upon him as a friend, to trust him, anil to pity him. instead of being indignant with him. for his misplaced attachment to herself. He saw his advantage very quickly. Loving her as he did—for there is no question that his passion, howeves coarse and selfish, as. in such a nature, it must inevitably be, was terribly earnest and real—loving her as he did, it was torture to him lo buy her smiles by praises of another man. and know that he had won, and could hold, a welcome from her and a place in her regard, only in virturc of his ability and willingness to talk to her on the subjects dearest to her heart. But he was a man. who to the cunning of the fox united the persistency of the blood hound. Once let him catch sight of his prey, once start him on the scent, and he would never rest until the goal was reached and the reward secured, or. until he saw that failure was inevitable. It was not of failure he was thinking now as he sat, talking softly and enter tainingly of the African coast, with her lovely, eager uplifted eyes shed ding their sweet light upon hit. He was thinking of the day when they should look on him with tenderness for his own sake, of the day when he should dare to tell her what he was en during now for her sweet sake, in hopes to win her. He had set himself lo study her more carefully than he had ever studied Africa; and in the game he was playing for which her hand was to be lhe prize, he was de termined not to lose one point. He was in earnest, as he had never been in aught that concerned a woman before, other fancies, other desires he had known, one in particular, that he shuddered to remember even yet. but this one was. as far as fierce passion can stand in place of pure, the one real love of his life.' The thought that she might never be his own filled him with rage and despair; the thought that she might ever be another’s turn ed his guilty, plotting brain to thoughts of murder. But he let no sign of the workings of his soul appear in his smiling face. He talked well and entertainingly, and at the same time if poor Florence could only have Inown it, most skillfully for his own purposes. Finding him so learned on African topics, Florence had bop- cd to obtain from him without directly asking forit. such iinformation as to the course of the "Saucy Jane" as would enable her to direct a letter to Herbert with some reasonable hope of its being received; but Mr. Tremaine was quite clever enough lo fathom this secret hope of hers, and much too cunning and wide-awake to his own interests to gratify it. He named so many places at which the ship might stop upon her outward voyage, and gave such leared and excellent reasons why she, in all probability, would not touch at any one of them, that the poor girl was thor oughly bewildered. To have asked him directly where a letter would be Likely to reach Captain Clare would have been to betray to him the fact— little she dreamed that he already knew it— that Herbert himself had neglected to give her the most simple and neces sary information. Maidenly reticence and natural pride revolted against his knowing that he. who adored her—she knew instinctively—should know that his favored rival had treated her so carelessly. and that she forgave the slight. Tor Herbert’s unlucky error had assumed the proportions of an actual slight in her thoughts. “If lie loved me as I love him; if he longed for news of me as I longed for news of him. he would have neg lected no pains to secure our corres- pondencc," she argued with her heart, and she could not bear that any one should know, either of the wrong that had been done her love, or of what she considered her own weakness in so easily forgiving it. “My friend, the friend from whom 1 derive all my information on this subject. Miss Florence, has been to Africa so many times, and by so many- different routes, that I get bewildered in trying to distinguish them apart," he said. "He is out of the city at present. A very intelligent fellow and a great traveler. When he returns I will, if you give me permission, in troduce him to you." Then sinking his voice to its softest, most earnest tones. serve"I only desire to please and you!" Could she do less than thank gratefully? Could she fail to nounce him, in her secret thoughts, most self-denying, most devoted? Could she escape the inevitable com parison with Herbert’s indifference and negligence, or the pang it dealt her heart, and the self-reproach she felt for having judged this kind friend so harshly, and caused him so much pain? No. being a true, tender, and innocent “Oman, all these feelings were, for Florence, unavoidable. And Mr. Tremaine counted them all, and calculated every of their worth to him, and his swelled high with triumph and "She positively disliked me," he said to himself, as he journeyed hoifieward. “The very first point in the game for me was to conquer that dislike. I have made that point, I think. Count your self one, Mr. Tremaine. (To De continued) FOR ---------- RICKETS him pro- upon atom heart hope.

It is thirty-seven years since he left Tillsonburg, when he was an employee of the late John Law, and in looking over the town now he feels like Rip Van Winkle, so great a trans formation has taken place. In speak ing of the early days he says that his father, the late John W.

Port Burwell Garage Burned Fire of unknown origin completely destroyed the fine garage of Kaufman Brothers at I a.m. Thursday. Upon making the discovery, the fire alarm was sounded and upon responding the villagers found the fire too far ad vanced to fend assistance. The fire when discovered was in the stockroom which was well supplied with inflam mable material. Only a week pre viously a shipment of thirty tires had arrived and which were in the stock room. The fire from this room quickly spread to the outer storage room where large tanks were kept and which were quickly ignited, making a ver itable furnace of the whole place, de stroying tlic splendidly equipped work room. the contents of the storage room, including three cars. The strong wind blowing at the time fanned the fire, the whole being in ruins within one hour, but for some unknown reason the office building adjoining at the east escaped destruction, as did also the two large service tanks containing hundreds of Slons of gas which were unharmed. e loss, which was partially covered by insurance, was estimated at $5,000 to $10,000. The building included gar age service, acetylene welding and bat tery service, and the village is tem porarily without expert service. Seek Amicable Road Solution Woodstock, Sept. 18.— Following a lengthy discussion the Oxford County Council, at its special September ses sion. passed a special report dealing with road construction throughout the county. The ruling of the Government that county roads must be 66 feet between fences precipitated a lengthy discus sion and was-finally handed over to the roads committee, with a resolution to handle the situation in the most am icable manner. Councillors charged that in many instances farmers had set their fences out two and three feet and that considerable difficulty would be encountered in locating the centre of the rcAdways. Faced with losing the subsidy for road construction and maintenance, the Council suggested that an engineer be secured to make a survey of the roads in order to arrive at their proper location. Reeve McLeod, of Embro, declared that the count)- councils were govern ed too much from Toronto. He was emphatic in his denunciation of the manner in which the department of highways ordered property owners to move their fences back ten feet along the route of the provincial highways.
