CHAPTER
"Come and have a driek, Mr. Far-
rel,' Davey cried. boisterously.
"There's a eouple of chaps in the bar
wtsitiing for me . . and I'll
play you poker, bob rises. Not a dime
more,"
He staggered aerass the room and
threw open the doer into the tap-
room. McNalo followed him, turning
back at the doorway to shoot a glance
of triumph at the Sabooltnaster.
Davey's appearance in the bar was
hailed with a• shout. Dan heardthe
reittling of bottles and glasses, the
shouts of laughter, blaring of oaths
and stamping of heavy feet that fol-
lowed lJhe boy's, cali for drinks all
round.
Fragments of a song, bawled jo-
cosely, came to the Schaelanaeteads
ears as he tramped down the road to
else cottage, on the edge of the town -
He brooded over the Change in
Davey, asking himself how he came
to be kicking over the traces; why he
was going to the dogs with the aseier-
do-wells of McNab'a, whet Donald
Oamero.n would say to a if he knew;
how he could fail to 'mow; what his
mother was feeling and thinking
about it.. She -tvould7'1.-now, of that he
was certain. Not mueli escaped those
clear, still eyes of hers.
In the morning when he saw the boy
again, he tried, to speak to him; but
Davey swung past, dragging his hat
aver Ma face shamefacedly.
The Scho-orinaster got into the habit
of watching him, tryirg to see his
faee. Sometimes it surprised him. He
had seen Davey thrasaiing a steer
until the blood: poured from its tawny
hide. He had seen him swinging
along the roads on sale days alter the
midday meal, reckless and laughing,
lais head thrown back, a couple of Me-
Nab's men at his heels. He had heard
him singing drunkenly on hia way
home to the hills in the evening&
He went after him ene evening,
when Jelinson, Cameron's head stock-
man, had gone on early, and Davey
was going home alone.
"Look here, Davey," he said, riding
beside him, "'what's this game you're
on You'll ha.ve to drop it."
Davey laughed.
"You're like the rest of them," he
paid bitterly. "Think a fellavv- never
'grows npl I've been treated like a kid
to bong. The old man's been making
me the laughing- stock of the country
. . . and beesget to understand I'm
a man . . . and I've gat to be treated
like one."
"You needn't go daan' king and
chacking money about at MeNab's to
be that—"
Davey's eyes, veeted an him. -
"Oonal does it," he said. "And you
all think no end of him."
"Oh, Gomel! What has he got to
do with it?" The Schoolmaster hesi-
tated. "Conal does -rite. . . hut then
he's a reads...tar. It amines natural to
him. It doesn't to you.' You're ,Cam -
area's son and--"
"Cameron's son!" Da.vey saoffed.

the Schoolmaster asked,
"Oh, you needn't look like that

harmless one. He's been decent. Ihn
not fool enough to give McNab any
real handle against me."
"You're a darned fool, Davth
ey," e
.Schaohnaater said, his voice ripping
the silence with startled energy. "Mos
Nab and erewill have you in a
hole before you know where you are."
Davey flicked the reins across his
mare's neck. She leapt f)orward
along the track.
There was not a inan in Wirreeford
who did not think he knewwhat Thad
was driving at, that he was working
for a shot at Donald Cameron through

snaring, with winks, ehuckles of anl-
usemeet, and ely jokes at young
Davey's expense, although they drank
with him, flattered and applauded
him, playing up to the part MeNab
had set them
The• Sohoelmaster tried again to
warn the boy. This time Davey was
inclined. to- listen to him.
"What can McNab do to me?" he
asked. "I'm net a lag, or a lag's son."
"No," the Schoolmaster said, a little
bitterly. "But I've been svatching Me-
Nab—seeing the waa- he works. He's
got a genius for the underhand job.
There's not in-uch he eouldn't do if he
set his mind to it. He's set his mind
to semething now. I can see that
. . . and you're in the way of it. I
don't know exactly what it is. 'You
know he deeen't love your father.
Perhaps itt's that. He's never for-
given hini for trying to get hint
e.leared, out. He's using you some-
how, Davey."
"I believe you're right, Mr. Farrel,"
Davey said Slowly,- after a while.
"I've been a fool!" He swore uneasily.,
"Think I've been mad lately. wanted{
people te reckon I. :resat . . . just '
Cameron's son, and 'mean as they
ina.ke 'en!' two parts wrong and
orie pa -rt right. The right part IS, I've

el
you eaithe other night set, me think-
ing. I'm going to keep out of MeNab's
way."
"McNalo never shows his handh
wen
he means to win, Davey," there was
whiinsical inflection in th School-
master% voice.- "You can only beat
him at his own game if you don't let
m
hisee your cards either.
"Eh?" the boy leaked at him. "You
mea.n don't drop him at once . . let
him down slowly."
"Yes. He's got his knife into me,
too, you know, though he hasn't shown
It quite elea-rly yet. He's good' at the
waiting game. Itma be a bit interest-
ing to see how he marks'us both off—
if we don't mark him off, that is;
I'm going to get out of 'his way as
soon as I can. 'I'm giving up the
teaching here. Deirdre and are go-
ing up to Steve's for a while, and then{
hope we'll shake the dust of the
Wirree off ou,r feet."
They were panting when the School-
master said:
"Hear Pat and Tom Kearney -have
cleared out to the new rush? Eagle -
hawk, Esti% it? They brought in a mob
for Conail-e-Maithanels cattle—from
the Nartih-west, poor as mice. They
said Conal was on the roadie and will
be in, presently, to take them up to
the hills. Maitland's got a couple of
fattening paddocks beyond Steve's."
Tvro days later, on ;sale day, this
mine scraggy mob of northern 'bul-
look:a was still in the largest pen of
the 'Wirreeford yards. Darvey heard
them bellowing ntournfully.
"Oonall's been expected the last
couple of days to take charge of
them," somebody told him. "But
not came yet, and. the Schoolgnaster's

The Heratelv Cobbler.
NtSrhen you want a dessert in a harry,
one Which ever-eneasi eat and enjoy
without a thought of in,digeetion,
remember the hiesnely cobbler. A.
cobbler, as nearly everybody knows,
IS ...fruit, with a raised mist an& a hard
or beiled sauce. It cin be as econ-
omical as biscuit dough, or as rieh as
geed cake batter. A happy medium
between the 'two makes the best cob-
bler. Ib ean be. made of fresh fruit,
'apples, berrie& or rhubarb, or ,of fried
r canned fruit when fresh is not ob-
tainable. The beet cobbler in the
world, ie my estimation, is made from
a mixture of fresh raspberries and
leganberries. As many localities de
not have loganberries, it may be
added, that the ras,pbeeries usecialvith
strawberries or with recl,euerant juke
is almost as good. Apricots, fresh,
canned or dried, make splendid cob-
bler. Plums make fine cobbler. An
apple cobbler made of tart juicy
apples, with a good hard 'sauce or
eaten with sweet cream, is a dish fit
for a king.
A cobbler is ordinarily cocked over
the fire, the crust being baked by the
steanCfrona the juice of the fruit. It
is placed over the uncooked, sugared
fruit. If dry fruits are used it is nec-
essary to add water. Berries and juicy
plums de not need anything but
sugar. Rhubarb is juicy enough in
itself. But care must always be ex -
any regferred flavor. `I'lhe sauce must
be beatea till it is vary, smooth and
crearay. If a boiled sauce is desired,
use eithei"mnk bi water far itatetin-
,datian. Yfeke -.a thielteuing with ‚beat-
