He was not going to get alâ€" armed this time, however much he might pretend to be at the approâ€" priate moment. At first he almost enjoyed the search. For ten minutes he hunted about the boulders, for 15, for 20. "Oh miss," he cried at the sight of her. "For God‘s sake come and bave a look at my missis, She‘s fainted or something, and I can‘t get a word out of her." "Where is she?" "Just over by the edge of the wood, miss. Not very far, Won‘t tako you a minute. This way, I do hope as it isn‘t anything serious." Without a thought the girl hurried after him. Hardly had his footsteps died away, when she was disturbed by the sound of someone breaking clumâ€" sily through the branches, and the next moment there came across the clearing in front of where she sat an ordinary little trippery man in & grey sult and very light brown boots. She seemed to understand what he meant, for by now the littie copse meant so much to her that she sat down to dream her own dreams, conâ€" tent to be left alone for a few minâ€" utes, The picnic was ended, and the spring day still far from its close when Prisciga‘s insistence _ forced him to look at his watc‘.

He had to show her before she fully believed him, the extraordinary jumble of food and utensils that was hidden under the rugs on the back seat. He had pillaged the larder in a rough masculine fashion, but thorâ€" oughly, of everything be had thought suitable for a picnic meal, and had even managed to include a kettle and some teathings, Back in the copse they made themselves a little gipsy fire among the rocks.

It is true that the office carries with it a salary of $50,000 a year but expenditures run beyond that. There is a social status to be maintained which runs away with cash at a rapid rate. Moreover the appointment of a Canadian would be severing another link with . the Mother Country. In addition to this a governor is governor in name only. _ His powers are defined and limited. His novels teem with stories of the Scottish Highlands, of deer and of fish, especially the salmon. Of highlands and lowlands he will find no end in Canada, while we have deer of various kinds and our fish are wonderful, also of wide variety.
