Sylvia Bradley, Mrs. Elendersou's six. ter, was acting- as private secretary to that talented lady, while Robert Orth• wan fulfilled the sante duties for John Henderson. Mrs. Henderson and Sylvia engaged themselves with botanizing expedi• tions, surrounded by a capable native guard, while the two bleu carried guns and notebooks auto the jungle and met with several thrilling adventures. • The books was progressing well In spite of the blistering heat that sborteued the working days to minimum hours, when a little party of American friends who were touring India came up from Simla for the night. "Bobby Orthman with you?" asked Mr. Delafield, as he strolled around the compound with his host after diuuer. "Like him?" "First rate," cried Henderson. "They say he's something of a molly- coddle ollycoddle in spite of his six feet two bulk. Wouldn't stand for hazing at college and they say bas a deadly fear of wild animals," said Delafield. Henderson started ever so slightly.. "Doesn't look like deadly fear when he enters the jungle with me every day," retorted Henderson obstinately, "Bumph! Not much danger around stere. • The jungle has been pretty thoroughly beaten, they tell me, and, besides, your native fellows can take care of you." "Shall we join the ladies?" asked Henderson abruptly, and so the conver- sation ended. But after the guests had departed the seeds of distrust sown by Delafield sprouted iu Hen- derson's mina, apd one evening Hen- derson confided the story to his wife and sister-in-law, hoping they would rout his suspicious with their warm defense of Bobby Orthman. But Mrs. Delafield had been gossip- ing, too, and Maud Henderson and her sister, who were hero worshipers, had somehow changed their opinion of Bobby Orthman overnight.

They expressed themselves vigorous- ly to this effect, and the Idol of young manhood happened to be taking a sies- ta in his own room off the east veran- da and heard every word of the con- versation before he realized that he had been eavesdropping. Then he jumped up, had a bath and got into clean linen clothes, and, leav- ing this compound by the west gate, lie went up to Jupper hill to have it out with himself. He sat down on the scattered rocks and stared at the sunset—an amber tea of clouds beyond the jagged peaks. Bobby Orthman was proud, and his soul writhed when he remembered Syl- via's light laugh of disdain as they discussed him. Ills hands clinched un- til the bronzed knuckles showed white and his strong teeth bit hard into his lower Hp. Sylvia, whom he loved—Ise was only waiting a favorable opportunity to teil her—Sylvia thought him a coward! If she only knew! At the compound gate he found his -own servant, Mitt' Tanduri, convers- ing excitedly with the other servants. "What is the trouble, MItti'1" he asked.. "Ab, sahib, n tiger has appeared in the village beyond. Last nigbt it car- t•ied away the wife of my Cousin Goons." ]Bobby leaned, white and shaking, igalnst the gate.

"And you, Jack --you will continue to go toiathe jungle every day?" asked Sylv. "Of course. How about yo.u, Orth - Inuit?" "Certainly," said Bobby gravelylike d, but he knew that his face was eath end that his hands shook. Sylvia thought hie a coward, and he was too proud to explain to leer that his childhood had been spent in India and thtit when but a tiny lad he had been cai'i•ied away, from his nurse by a tiger. -Only his father's bravery had saved his life, but bis arms and breast still bore the scars of savage teeth. After dinner he sat alone on the ve- randa, fur the others were gathered around .the lamp in the living route reading papers from home. There was e soft murmur of voices from the servants' quarters, and then silence broke now and then by the bark of a dog or the cry of some slebird. Bobbepyy° thought he was alone out there, but he had a companion near by. A queer thrill down his spine followed a movement in the shade of a dueler tree near the closed gate. Bobby was conscious of being watched. He glauced around at the wire screened window; neither Sylvia nor her broth- er-iu-taw had looked his way. 'Ile was alone ou the veranda, but not alone in the compound. Straight ahead, under the deep black shadow of the deodar tree, there shone two round yellow lights. They were, perhaps, fourteen inches apart and they moved slowly toward him in dreadful unison. ITe struck a match sharply, and the eyes receded before the sudden flare of light. While he held the match to his empty pipe, he spoke hoarsely •to the man within the room: "Henderson! Close your wooden shutters. Get a line on him if you can. I'll draw him our." Thus calmly, Bobby Orthman, the coward, proceeded to throw himself IE the way of a wan eating tiger in order to save the girl he loved and the ones that she loved. Ho went quietly down . the steps scratching matches as he did so; the eyes remained stationary under the (Moder.

Ma sent mo to pay a bill at the Gro- cer's last Saturday. The boss behind the counter made me a present. of something wrapped in a piece of silver paper which he told me was a piece of Limberger cheese. When I got out' side the shop I opened the paper, and when I smelt what was inside I felt somewhat sick. I took it home, and put in the coal shed. In the morning I went to it again. It was still there. Nobody had taken it. I wondered what I could do with it. Father and mother were getting ready to go to church. I put a piece in the back pocket of father's pants, and another in the lining of ma's muff. I walked behind when we started for church. It was beginning to get warm. When we got in church father looked anxious and mother looked as if some- thing had happened. After the first hymn, mother told father not to sing again, but to keep his mouth shut and breathe through his nose. After the prayer, perspiration stood out on father's face and the people in the next pew to ours got up and went out. After the next ;hymn, father whispered to mother that he thought she had better go out and air herself. After the second lesson, some of the churchwardens'oame round to' see if there were any stray rats in the church. Some more people near our pew got up and went out. The parson said they had better close the service, and hold a meeting outside to discuss the sanitary condition of the church, Father told mother they had better go home one at a time. Mother told father to go the nearest way home and disinfect himself before she came. When they got home they both went into the front room, but did not speak for some time. Mother spoke first, and told father to put the cat out of the room as she thought it was going to be sick. it was sick be- fore father could get it out. Mother then turned round and noticed that the canary was dead. Mother told father not to sit so near the fire, as it made matters worse. rather told another to go and smother herself, Mother said she thought she was smothered d sire ad y, Just then the servant came in and asked . if she would open the windows as the room felt very close. Father went upstairs and changed his clothes, and had a hot bath. Mother took father's clothes and offered them to a tramp, who said, "Thanks, kind lady, they are a pit to high for me,' Mother threw them over the back fence into the canal. Father was summoned after- wards for poisoning the fish. Mother went to bed. Father asked her if she had been fumigated, Just then father had a note sent him. Father came to wish me "Good night" at 1t) o'clock in the eyening, with a note in one hand and a razor strop in the other.

The notary had pre- pared a deed, which the farmer signed and passed to his wife, whose signa- ture was also necessary. To the sur- prise of every one the woman declined to put her name to the instrument, "I have lived on this farm for more than thirty year's," she said, "and I am not going to sign away my rights unless I get something out of it that I can call my own," The husband and attorney reason- ed with her, but to no avail. `She was immovable. The purchaser evinced signs of nervousness,since he felt that the women's demands might be un- reasonable. Finally, after further parley, he steeled himself to put the momentous question, "How much will you take to sign the deed ?" The woman hesitated, and then fin- ally replied : "Well, I think I ought to have two dollars," Clinton Hydro Station. On Wednesday of last week the Clinton Hydro Electric Station was completed after many months of plan- ning and toil, and in the opinion of Mr. M . J. H. Castor, district Hydro en- gineer, Clinton has one of the best equipped. systems. ' The hydro equip- ment consists of two high tension three place 13000 volt circuite, which are connected with the lines from Stratford. They are fed in by choke coils through a 45000 volt automatic oil switch, the function of which is to protect the station from short circuits on the le000 volt line, There are also lightning arresters of 26000 volt capac- ity which protects the station frcm lightning discharge from the main Volt line. From the automatic volt switch the line goes through three 150 S. M. transformers, which reduce the voltage from 1$000 to 2800 volts on the switch board, from which power in. candescent and street lightning is tak. en. The switch board is fitted up with an automatic oil switch to protect the equipment in case of short circuits on local lines.
