One afternoon in June. which is
the dead of *inter in the Far Smith.
Ainsford was working in his office in
Waihon. a little mining township
still in its childhood. Exactly at 3
p.m. tho telephone -bell rang in tho
outer office.
The telephone communicated with
the manager's office on the Golden
Road mine. fifteen smiles away, up
in the wild bush ranges to the
north, and was installed in n little,
clinker -built, two-roumu"l shanty,
bearing, the title of "Office of the
Golden hood Mining Company."
Ainsworth unhooked the receiver.
"Are you there?" came a far -away.
metallic: voice, mingled with strange
hun►nting noises of wind on the wire,
for it was blowing hard.
"Yes. Who are you?" replied he.
"Is that you, Ainsford?"
"Yes -yes. Is that. Hemm-
ing?"you, Hea-
ing?"
Without answering the question, the
voice hurriedly launched into its
message.
"(fu and buy," it. said. "Huy
heavy. 'fell my wife, and see to it
for her, will you?"
"What? have you struck gold,
then?" began Ainsford.
"1 tell you, go and buy!" camp
back hope tlent ly. "For Heaven'ssake, buy big, and look after Jessie.
I can trust you. I know. 1-"
The voice broke off in a metallic
cackle that ended in a confused
crash. Then there was silence.
"Hang the thing! I believe it has
broken down," he growled. "What
in creation Is tho matter with old
Hemming? What docs ho mean?
Never knew him up to any games of
this sort before."
Tho manager of the mine was
away, and Ainsford, his assistant
and assayer, was in charge of the
office. It was Ills duty to wire at
once all news of Importance to the
head office in town, and it was not
part of his duty to use information
concerning the mine fur his own be-
hoof.
"Can't understand his telling me
to buy blindly like this," stuttered
Ainsford. "It's not his way. Won-
der if it can be some devil trying to
trick me? But no; it wits old Ifeni-
uting's voice.".
So saying, ho opened the door
thoughtfully and walked out.
"1'1111m -ten," he muttered. "Wm,

away. Never knew old Hemming
to make a mistake. It's good
enough."
• And ho stepped forth into the yel-
low stud -hole between the office door
and the hogbacked strip of macadam
in the middle of the street, a woman
approached him -a little, thin, freckl-
ed, big -toed woman, but still pretty.
"Mr. Ainsford," she said, laying an
anxious hand on his arm to stop
him, "ring up the mine, will you, if
you don't mind? I'm afraid there
Is something amiss with my hus-
band."
"Something amiss,llrs, Hemming?The wonmi n's face twitched, and a
tear started to her eyelids.
"Sucnetng's cone over hien," she
Insisted, in a low voice. "I'm sure
of it."
"Oh, tlnlleellae," said the other
cheerily. "Why, hu rnrig rue up only
a few rninults ago."
Mrs. Hemming shook her head, but
listened quietly while he told her her
husband's message.
"[lave they got on -told, then?"
she asked, when he had finished.

"Hut how ant I to buy," began
Mrs. Il.• ing, thinking of seven
hungry mouths to be fed and of a
light purse.
"Uta, that's all right, I suppose,"
said Ainsford. "1 ie wouldn't say buy

a big jump in prices, you can bet.
Look here, I'm going to wire to sty

Mrs. !leming shook her head
drearily, as she w•ulkewt atcay. But
Ainsford, when he had despatched
his telegram. thought no more of her
misgivings.
During the afternoon, he several
times attempted to ring up the twine,
but could get no answer.
Six o'clock came. and still no

a voice in the darkness.
"Hallo!'That you, Bich? What's

he spoke.
"Come along. for lieaven'e sake,

riedly. "The number three level has
