He knew that he had never before in his life been fiearer murder than at that mo- ment! Something hardened in him; he had been on the point of con- fession, of making a clean breast of it to Pam, but Fosdick was like a challenge, He stared back at him with fury in his look. There was a breathless kind of silence and Fos- dick's slow contemptuous smile, hard as a blow. The young man's breath came, suddenly choking, his - hands clenched at his sides, he was hardly aware of the girl, nor that Pam's eyes turned questioningly from one to the other. "I'm an old friend of Horace By- ram of Utica," Mr. Fosdick's dry voice had a hint of mockery in it. "I don't seem to remember you, sir, as -- a Byram!" Mark's white face defied him, "You know I'm not a Byram, Mr, Fosdick," he said in a low voice, hardly controlled; it shook a little with the passion that was choking him, *® LJ] * 3 Old Fosdick cackled; the sound - was as unmirthful as the startled v screech of a frightened hen. But he adventured no farther; he saw the look in Mark's eyes; he turned his thin old shoulders toward him and smiled crinkingly at Pam, "How's your aunt, my dear?" he asked dryly, suggestively, his atti- tude -- excluding Mark from the conversation -- seemed to say: 'yot're in bad company, my child; .go home!" Pam was flushed; her lip trem- bled. a little but she forced a smile. "I'm going to meet her now -- I was on my way when--" she did not speak the name, "Byram," again, 'it seemed uhlucky -- "I've ot to go now!" She turned to ark. "Couldn't someone call me a taxi?" 'she asked hurriedly; "I'm eonscience-stricken when I think of Aunt Lynn waiting!" = "I'll get a taxi for you myself," Mark said promptly; he was mind- ng) Relieve Neuritis...

"Hang him!" Mark thought vio- lently; "it's like giving up -- but he can have his chance. She's got to know; I've been a sneak!" His sheer rage at Fosdick did not blind "him to own iniquity, Traffic was congested outside, and the doorman took quite a while to summon a taxi. It seemed in- terminable to Mark, wondering how bad Fosdick was making it. "If I'd told myself!" he fumed. "Well, I deserve it -- it was a black thing to do!" "Here It is, sir, one of the new rate ones, too!" + * bd Ld Mark swung through the revolv- ing doors of the vestibule and made his way toward the alcove. Fos- dick's back was still there, turned his way, and Pam was opposite, a little flushed, a little ill at ease, he could see that. He felt a sickening dread of the enlightened look she might give him, but, as he came up, she smiled, relief in her eyes, "The -taxi?" she asked quickly. "It's waiting for you Mirk wanted to tap Fosdick on the shoulder and force him to turn, but the old lawyer managed, cleverly, to shake hands with Pam without apparently seeing him at all. He was treating the young man like an offensive cockroach; to be ignored when it could not be conveniently crushed, The red was staining Mark's. cheek as he walked down the room with Pam, They did not speak, ta- bles were filled up, and, once or twice they had to pass single file between them, but he thought she knew; he could feel a change in her, Outside the door he stopped her. The street was crowded but they were alone together for all _ that, "I've got something to say to you," lie said hoarsely; "I"suppose you know it?" She looked up at that, her eyes gravely perplexed, She shook her head, "Didn't Fosdick tell you?" . *Nol" : They looked at each other. Bit- terness and shame and blind rage at the old lawyer seemed suddenly swept clean away; Mark only knew that he loved Paml ""Of course you saw that some- thing was--wrong?"' She gave hm a sweet, frank look, putting out her hand. "I thought he was--horrid!" she cried warm- Iy. He held her hand close a moment and kept it to help her into the taxi. He could not tell her there-- in the street! She smiled at him from the cav- ernoup depths of the checkered . black and yellow monster. "You're coming to see me? Let me sce-- I'm home tomorrow afternoon, five o'clock." He had no right to go there again, but he had a right to tell" the truth in his own way! ° merely said, in a strained voice, "Five, tomorrow--it's not a func- tion, is it?" She smiled radiantly, leaning for- ward, her hand on the door, to an-. swer. "Just you--no one else!" Then she was borne away, and he knew she had no faintest hint of the awful thing he had to tell her. Suddenly he wished Fosdick had done it, : » / - N77 SAT-SLEEP ~ LOOK aud ==) BETTER Jhge - [73 reff {#4 MA BETAMIN VITAMIN B-COMPLEX TABLETS ISSUE 51045 TABLE TALKS New Ways Of Using Winter Vegetables No need to let the family grow bored with the same old winter vegetables, These recipes from the Consumer Section of the Dominion Department of Agriculture use the winter stand-bys in new and de- licious ways.

Previous to our lesson we find the people prayed that Jesus would depart out of their midst. Jesus do:s not remain where he is not wanted, and he en- tered into a ship and came to his own city, Jesus passed Matthew, who was busy in the employ of the Roman government collecting taxes. Only two words were spoken "Follow me" and without hesitation Matt- _hew left all to follow Jesus. Let us not be too busy with earthly pursuits to hear the call 'Take up thy cross and follow me", Luke tells us Matthew "made him La great feast in his house". Matthew celebrated this memorable occasion by inviting all his friends to come "and get acquainted with the Lord Jesus, Is it not a challenge to us to tell friends of the Savjour? PO The Pharisces who were con- stantly watching Jesus asked his disciples why their Master should eat with sinners, For anyone to 'than talk or sit with sinners who racticed the laws of purification, vas an act of defilement. Jesus put them to silence with the words ley that be whole need not a ician, but they that are sick". re, are many who consider themselves whole as the pharisees - did, and know not that they are "wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked", "Go ye and learn" was a rebuke to those who prided themselves in their education and knowledge of the scriptures. Jesus refers them to Hos. 6:6, where the prophet taught that God loved mercy more sacrifice. Jesus goes on to state his purpose "Not to call the righteous, but sinners to repen- tance". Of .ourse this iné¢luded al', as "All have sinned and come short of the glory of God." * * LJ The Pharisees had come to criti- cize, but this ruler came for help and. ta worship Jesus, He recog- nized the fact that even though the child might be dead, a touch of the Master's hand was sufficient to re- store her. On*His way to where the child lay a woman of similar faith who had been suffering for many years touched the hem of his gument and was instantly healed. Arriving. at the home of the ruler, they found that the girl had heen pronounced dead, and many friends had gathered, When Jesus mentioned that she only sleepéth, they Tidiculed him. God cannot work in an atmosphere of scorn, and not until they were put out did' Jesus restore the child to life.

Clarke of GINGER FARM . - . . 2) Last Saturday was such a lovely day--a day that was good to be out in--so I announced my inten- tion of walking to town. Partner laughed "You won't walk very far," he said. "Why not?" I in- quired. "Well, have you forgotten there's a political convention in town today? There will be cars by the dozen on the road!" Sure enough 1 had hardly left our own gate when I was offered a ride. And I don't mind telling you I was glad to accept it because I was carrying five dozen eggs and already they were much heavier than when TI left home. I didn't know my Samaritan driver "at all -- and I didn't inquire whet- her "he was Liberal or Tory -- it was enough for me that he was a gentleman and with a young boy along to satisfy the propricties. . +x x We got to town, and my good- ness, you wouldn't think there were any bad roads in the country, that is, judging by the number of cars on the street. They were parked from one end of town to the other. But I had little time to waste so 1 hurricid along, did my shopping, had a cup of tea with a friend and was then ready. for home. . Just as I got back to Main Street, party satellites were coming away from the Town Iall. IT went into one of the stores to pick up a few parcels and what a kick 1 got out of watching the passers-by from my hide-out! « + a Now I wouldn't go so far as to say 1 could tell which of the people I saw were Conservatives, The Bookshelf... The Master Of The Mill Frederick Philip Grove The brilliant Canadian author of Our Daily Bread has built an ex- tremely skilful novel around the widely differing careers and char- acters of three generations of mill- owners whose fortunes grew swiftly with the growth of Canada, There is the mean and ruthless founder of the mill around whose rain elevators the town becomes A®pming tity; his son who be- comes a senator and whose engin- eering genius: the old man uses without a nod of thanks; and his grandson, Sir Edmund, third mast- er of the mill, reared in luxury, who "wields the immense power of the mill with his grandfather's real- istic unscrupulousness. Mr. Grove uses with telling ease the recollec- tions of the aging senator, of Sir ~ Edmund's wife, and of an outsider to give a full, rounded picture built up in much the same way as is a story that one hears by word of mouth about an intriguing situation, many sided, which the people who lived or watched it never discussing.

But I can assure you it was very obvious which were Conservatives and which were not. It was downright comical. Any other Saturday you would see farmers in groups talk- ing as freely and easily as you please, But not this Saturday. There were groups of men talking --yes--but they were all in their "good' clothes and looking very pleased with themselves, and ob- viously all of one party. Presently a man in overalls would come along, give the group he=was pas- sing a furtive glance, accompanied by an almost. imperceptible nod. His nod would be returned by one equally perfunctory accompanied by a glance at once self-conscious and condescending. It was as good as a play to watch -- and the players so unconscious of it all, « % * Then began the trek out of town --but I noticed it was only the men in overalls who appeared to he ir any hurry. The men who were "dressed" were apparently loath to leave their buddies. The real climax of this little story will come on Monday night when another party convention is being held -- and IT haven't a doubt the-furtive glances and the condescension will then be mn re- verse. Of course it wasn't long before I had to think about getting a ride home. But with whom? 1 really wasn't particular. Far be it from me to. criticise or dislike any person on account of his party or creed, I think there is enough room in the world for all of us. How- ever just as I was considering tak- ing my chance on the open road, I saw a well-known team coming along, box sleigh attached.
