"Of course you would fancy," he said, is a suddenly softened tone; "of course you could not know what you were saying. Tell the truth Miss Fenella, did you say this of yourself, or because of father?" "Your father certainly did mention to me—" "That's all right, then," and Duncan seemed to draw a rather deep breath. "I thought it would be that. Let's never talk of this again, Miss Fenella, if you want us to be friends, that's to say." "Of course I want that, Duncan," Fenella hastened to say, in reply to the unspoken point of interrogation. In her heart Fenella, primed as she was with Duncan's view of the case, could not but wish him victory in the struggle, though she did so with an uneasy feeling of disloyalty towards Julia, whose chances of some day be- coming Mr's. Berrell seemed to be steadily growing. "He's trying the boycotting trick now," explained Duncan wrathfully, in answer to her inquiry; "wanting to keep me out of the crews by keeping me out of the good claims. It's come to this, that any crew with me in it is bound to get the poorest claim in the quarry. Every time the list comes round he hopes to see me dropped by the others. But he doesn't know our people. They don't turn their backs easily upon one of their own kind. So far, they have stuck to me all right, which of course makes him ail the angrier. To hear him talk, you would think I was a red revolutionist, when all I want is my own rights, without touching his. He'd hunt me out of the country in a moment, if he could." "But I'm not one to be hunted. If ever 1 do leave the old country, it will be by my own free will, and not by that or any other man." "But surely you are not thinking of that?" asked sl ed Fenella astonished. "Not just now. I couldn't leave father, But father once gone, it's a plan I've thought of at times,—if a thing I'm thinking of were to happen." ,Make Your Own Bread Save your Money Enjoy good Health Domestic economy is going to win the war against the 'gun.

Turn it one quartof boiling water and one "And is the thing likely to happen?" "More likely with every day that passes," said Duncan, gazing away with unblinking eyes over the mys- terious shimmer of the loch. Fenella looked at him perplexed, conscious of a quite unexpected feel- ing of regret. "But surely it would hurt you to leave your country, Duncan?" "A man's life is made of hurts, it seems to me," he said, with a short laugh, his gaze still fixed upon the loch, his fine profile, with the well - cut nose and thick, short beard, standing out sharply from the back- ground of unreal -looking hills. "And where would you go to?" "The world's big enough, Miss Fenella, but it's Canada I'd try for. If the book I have on my shelf speaks true, it must be a splendid Jand— a land where a, stout heart and a pair of strong arms can do almost any- thing, and where a man isn't looked down upon for using these arms," "I suppose I ought to be going home," said Fenella, after a silence, during which she had been turning over this new idea in her mind. She got up rather in a hurry as she said it, looking about her with as: ,J tonished eyes. Really, she had no idea that it was as late as this. "The basket's over -heavy for you, Miss Fenella," interposed Duncan, as she stooped for it; "you'll let me carry it for you as far as the road, anyway." It ended by his not only carrying the basket as well as his tool -bag, but also helping her over the broken ground. As she steadied herself by his broad hand, what more natural than that in her mind a comparison should arise between these toil -worn fingers and a,tother hand in which hers had lately lain in frequent greet- ing. Oh, what a difference! what a difference. The road reached, Fenella put out her hand for the basket decisively, be- ing half afraid that he would offer to carry it to the Rectory door. But he yielded it up w:thotrt demur; and though nothing was said beyond a re- mark touching the shortness of the remaining way, it seemed to be tacitly understood between them that the es- capade of the evening need not neces- sarily be pressed upon the notice of the family. 1 CHAPTER XII. Ever since Ella's clays, "dressing for! dinner" had remained an institution at the Rectory. So had the retire- ment of the ladies after dessert, even though that dessert itself might con- sist of three bananas and six biscuite, just as the "dressing" aright bo re- presented by a change of blouse, or a lace collar bf the vilest quality pro- duced by Oban spring sales. In this respect, John alone, having been given up as hopeless enjoyed immunity, Other relics of• Ella's sway likewise survived, such as the dishes known as "entries," the glees troughs, and the embroidered doyleys which she herself had laboriously copied from those at the Episcopal table. In Albert's and Julia's hands these small but eloquent trifles were not likely to fall into dishonour; and it was onlylately that Fenella had dis- covered in herself a certain impatience regarding them, and had come to the conclusion that they were rather foQlieh than otherwise, and, at any rate, quite superfluous. Today she had astonished Julia by a remark as to whether it would not be batter to have only one dinner -dish and plenty of it, instead of the mere pickings of three. "Dinner would ,be ever a0 much quicker to eat that way," elle argued On any other day, Penella's revolu- tionary 'emark would infallibly have produced a discussion; as well as e severe reprimand from Albert, but to- day his mind was otherwise occupied. "Oh, bother that just now!" he cut short Julia's astonished reply. "I've to be off again by daylight to -morrow, you know, and there's something else I want to talk out with you. I saw Berrell just before coming in, Julia." "Yes," said Julia placidly, in no way disturbed in the pointedness of the address. She was growing used by this time to having the manager regarded as her private property. "He's getting wild at Duncan M`Don- nell. The pigheadedness of that fel- low is beyond words. Nothing will induce him to give up the prosecution —about that blasting accident, you know." "Oh, yes, something would induce him," spoke up Fenella, upon some sudden impulse of boldness. "Let Mr. Berrell grant full compensation to Adam, and let him advise the company to give the steel tools, and Duncan will drop the prosecution at once. He told me so himself." Albert looked at his sister'in a pass- ing surprise. "The steel tools will come in time, no doubt, but Berrell can't give the compensation now without making himself ridiculous; he has too loudly declared that none was due." "Well, he shouldn't have declared it, for it certainly is due, and he -will make himself much more ridiculous by sticking to his declaration than by simply acknowledging that he had made a mistake." "Fenella!" reproachfully ejaculated Julia, for the criticisms levelled at her acknowledged suitor seemed person- ally mortifying even to her good na- ture. • I'm sorry, Julia! I've no dot.bt Mr. Berrell thinks he's in the right but he's in the wrong, all the same." "Right or wrong, held,"pronounced he's got tobeu- up- held," planting his claret -glass decisively upon the table. "He represents authority, and the': is enough—or anyway, it's got to be en- ough for the present," he added, as though in answer to the socialist with- in him, who, though marvellously adaptable to circumstances, was al- ways there, quietly biding his time, "Mr. Berrell is the man In power, and Duncan is the man in revolt, and, as the world stands now, the only way to escape anarchy is to back up Power. That's why I say that Duncan has got to be muzzled. He's becoming a nuisance, that young man. Father, can't you have a go at him? Christian charity and forbearance, and all that sort of thing, you know." John sighed a little wearily, "I have spoken to him, Bertie; but it doesn't seem to reach him, some- how. No doubt it'e my own fault." "The fault of his devilish temper, rather." "The whole vindictiveness of the Gael seems to be packed into that young man." "Oh, Bertie, no! He's not vindictive. It's not for himself he is fighting, you must remember, it's really for his father, who has lost his work—who is old and blind, and needs the money, It breaks Duncan's heart to see him wanting anything," Fenella stopped, flushed up to the temples with the eagerness of her de- fence, nor losing any of the glow under the astonished glances bent upon, her. The attention around was inconvenient, hut to have kept silence now would have struck her as coward- ly. This speaking up for Duncan seemed in sortie way to he an astone- ment for that other piece of cowardice, that day upon the bank, It was her father who name to her aid. "You are in the right, Fenella. It's not vengeance that Duncan looks for, it's only justice. His temper is hot, ito doubt, but I know that his heart If "But when on earth has Duncan told you all this?" inquired Julia, staring' with wide and rather startled eyes at her sister. "At the cottage, when I'm visiting his father, and sometimes, too, I have met him on the road," said Fenella, strong in her new boldness. "But surely—" began Julia, when Albert interposed. "I've got an idea, Fenella! Since you seem to have made friends with Duncan, how would it be if you had a go at taming the savage? Now, if you asked him as a personal favor to drop the persecution, do you think he would do it?" "I—I really don't know," said. Fenella, in her turn taken by surprise. "It would be no more than grati- tude, surely, considering the trouble you've taken over his father. What do you say? Are you inclined to try your hand?" "Really, Bertie," she objected, "I think that would be getting into far closer touch with the family than we at all wish to be." But Albert only laughed, serenely confident. "I don't say it isn't, bet it's a choice of evils, as I ta;:e. it. Duncan has got to be muzzled, and apparently no one else can do it. Venetia has started the role of Angel of Mercy, she may as well add that of Angel of Peace." "Yes, yes," agreed John; "that's the very thing! I have noticed that Duncan is very attentive to what Fenella says." "It would save Berrell a world of annoyance, mind that, Julian and it would save Duncan more than mere es_4 Toronto's Famous Hotel taaras6 Many People Make a B -Line for the Walker House (The House of Plenty) as soon as they arrive in Toronto, The meals, the service and the home -like appointments constitute the magnet that draws them there. 1'Ioan Dinner e0c.

Then one has to go around with his gas mask ready to slip on at a mo- ment's notice. The first such experi- ence I had was early inwthe summer. We had just finished supper when the mournful wail of the compressed air siren announced that the gas`bilells had started breaking over tliu,, trenches. Five Masks Apiece. "The feeling while we were waiting was uncanny. You imagine that any- thing you smell, even onions, may be the gas. The chemicals in the masks are almost as bad as the gas itself. • "We are always supplied with five masks apiece. One mask is not good for more than forty minutes without being replenished. The gas shells which the Germans use don't make as much noise as the ordinary shells when they explode. •That and the yel- low misty cloud which they spread distinguish them as the gas bearers. "It was the night after this first scare that I had my real taste of the gas. My partner and I were on that advance post, where I had my taste of solitude under fire when it came. "A toss determined that I should have the first watch, and I had a ter- rible time keeping awake. Finally four o'clock 'came and I turned in. It seemed as if I had hardly gotten asleep when I felt my partner shak- ing me and yelling, 'Gas. Get up.' "I was out of that sleeping bag and had a gas mask on in about five sec- onds. In about five minutes we could see the yellowish mist come drifting over the hill. We couldn't see a soul in sight, and as it is the worst thing you can do to exert yourself in any way when under gas we didn't walk around looking for anybody. We just stood and looked as pleasant as we ,could with those ugly snouts on. The eyeholes fogged up badly and we couldn't even see much. "In about half an hour I walked slowly over to a wireless station some distance off. There I found the oper- ator making coffee with his mask off.
