"But my father," cried "No," Loutrelle denied quickly. "No; no; you musn't think of that." "Do you know Boyne-acress there?" he asked. "You mean the little town: that to do with my father?" "If I knew, I'd tell you right out," he assured. "But as it is, the only way I see is to explain how that letter --and what followed--came to me; and that involves a good deal of talk- ing about--" "What?" "Myself," he said simply. She glanced up at him quickly. "I don't know where my own people lived, or what they were," Loutrelle continued, "Bat Boyne is much like this," he glanced about at the trees, "second growth woods, only a bit older; and Indians like Asa Redbird." What's I was an Indian myself. Some Chip- pewas--a good man, Azen Mabo and his wife--had me" He said this quite without bitter- ness, simply as a statement of a fact; but Ethel saw hig lips press tightly together, involuntarily; his eyes gazed who had had a boat and moved around a good deal," Loutrelle went on. "He didn't find out much about me; for Noah Jo was sick when he sent for Azen and died about the time 'Azen got there. Azen took, with me, Noah Jo's rifle and hoat and gear and some other things; one of them was a rin which Noah Jo said went with me.

"How did she know?" "That's what gave me a jump. Of course, she might have learned those things, if she'd taken the trouble, or if Hus had sent a staff of detectives over here. Everything could have been learned naturally." "Then why didn't you think it was?" "I haven't said it was learned un- naturally, but it was such a mixed lot of facts, Miss Carew. I'm normal, Migs Carew; I don't prefer weird ex- planations. But I admit I walked the streets of London that night." " "So you believed--" f "Nothing yet. The next day I had to go back to France.

There was delay now at the other end of the wire and Ethel, as she wait- ed, could hear the mumble--but not the words--of the old man talking to himself. SE * "No one goes to the Rock, Ethel)' he said at last aloud, 'If he doesn't know that, surely you must have told him. Bring him here with you, my dear. T would like to see him. Bring him here with-you; do you under- stand?" man ordered again and Ethel heard him hang up the recciver. Ethel crossed to the door and, open- ing it, looked for Loutrelle. He had tramped off through the snow, without putting, on his skis, and evidently was exploring one of the old, dilapidated to St. Florentin." "Do you want me to go with you?" he asked her directly. "No," she replied frankly. "That is, 1f T were you I'! ge right out to Res- surrection Roek." She had not ccnsidered at all what she said before she spoke; her words --ag-one's words sometimes do--had surprised her by betraying a feeling which had not yet formed itself in her thought. . with no door," Loutrell remarked, (To be continuad.) a2 avoided we give the following descrip tions: : "The most of the deadly amanita is the sheath at the base of the stem known as the death- cup. The ring onthe stem is larger than that of the common mushroom, and the gills are white, both- when young and old, those of common mush- rooms being at first pink, then black. Nothing can be told from the color of thé upper surface of the cap because it varies so much. When one is gath- ering mushrooms, it is exceedingly important to get all of the stem and not leave a portion of it in the ground, since the death-cup may thus be over looked. SR "The fly amanita is as beautiful as it 1s dangerous. The cap is usually bright scarlet, yellowish or orange, up from below. The rest of the cup will usually be found in fragments in tie, soil about the swollen base of the stem. The gills are white and remain 80, thus differing from those of the common mushroom. The warts on the cap also distinguish it." essary in Canada to meet the insistent demands of traffic, but well-maintain- ed roads are even of more importance in the interect of ecoaomy. Conse- quently, provincial road administra tive organs and engineers are devot- ing a great deal of though and atten- tion to the care and protection' of roads. In 1927 the mileage of roads under ma ntenance in CanaGa under the patrol or gang system was 44,416 miles, at a cost of $16,024,617. te A rin TT EI SIMPLE WINDOW LOCK.
