for bury, 1 t i for the
farmers he hail . rood? Bartle
paced and planned ,....l he was leg-
treary and train-ioq_r1, and then at
last a scheme fortis:! in his brain,
The only way- -the • - .-.t tray,
He hurried to hi ,rl.•;1., sat down
and snatched tip a oincil.
He worked zin..tinir tete minutes
at the desk, then einriesl. about the
large roots collecting an assortment
of things wlticil he pit.d on a chair
beside the door. When he went out,
he carried a large 11 !oto candle, a
can of oil and an cerin:: ran tin with
the t,,. ttom punched t _' of holes.
* -.-
Half
Half an hour's ri1 brought him
to the edge of the ,alley and from
above he looked dna n on the build-
ings of Chris Pringle', farm.
Notting stirred Leh,., tum as Bar-
tle watched. After a chile he rode
down into the talk_., as close to the
Pringle place ;tr the dared, dismount-
ed and stealthily tel:auced with can-
dle, can and oil. Like a shadow he
made for the long sited.
Bent double, i:artiie wormed his
way to the centre of the shed. He
knelt, reached him and drag-
ged down a dry stalk. Crumpling
the leases, he made a little nest,
soaked it with oil imd placed the
candle in the centre.
A match splutter:••; i:: his cupped
hands. The candle win': ;moldered a
moment: then, as to:i_'t'. melted, u
spearhead of yellow light was born.
'1'o shield stunt a dar,r:•r signal from
any curios eyes. he carefully set
the perforated tin -tier the candle.
He got up gcicld:, sprayed the
oil about and dray. 1 down more
tobacco stalks. He left the building
cautiously, then d t. it1 to itis horse,
flung himself ionto, tn't saddle and
tore off tutraril Cbdt ::reek. At the
pace he !held, he figured, he should
he hack in his af;ice ir1 about thirty-
five minutes—j1,:: tL•_ length of time
it would taloe te: canonic to burst
down.

So the flame would touch the
rim of the oil-coal::r.! :.:st about its
base.
Abruptly, a c!iEi shook Bartle, as
unconsciously he p t! tl up his
horse with a jerk. i'or from some-
where near had conic the sudden
weird cry of a tusn:u:aitt lion. It
turned his blood
Bartle snatched :its quirt and
flayed his :tore '.nit otlt mercy.
Snorting in pain and ager, the ani-
mal carried liar .. at breakneck
speed.

tle returned to 1',tt tt.,' t•ming into

"Arad while- you're smiting time
of the hunt, this: rtttlatd pills this

Sheriff Laucle snatched a scrap
of paper from the banker's hand. He
read crudely printed words;
"\\'ell?" Bartle detitanded. "What
you going to do about it?"
"I don't believe Di Caballero Ro-
jo wrote it," said the sheriff flatly.
"1 was on the landing at the head
of the stairs above the bank wizen
the door below rattled," Bartle
snapped. "That wia lite dagger

Your Handwriting
Versus The Forger
There is no accurate record of
the number of forgeries committed
in Ontario. but aecorcihlg to known
facts, the forger does a lively busi-
ness and Iles er lacks new victims.
The l.insites man and the public,
generally seem ever ready to take
a tritmoittg and realize only too
late that they have been the vic-
tims of a st stt'mtttie fleecing rou-
tine.
T1' • for'ge'r always has two things
in mind: getting his 'take" and
escaping justice. One, he is fatuili-
aY tvith human nature and is trust -
that lr.; victims have poor
memories. Two, he i; betting a
hundred to one that the at crane
person eould root positively ideuiiy
his or her own handwriting. In
these two a-sunrntious. the forger
makes an easy lining at your ex-
pet,e. He relics mainly on your
inability to recoil definitely wheth-
er you made a !,ttaness transaction
or not, and fh,rtrs that you dill not
make 't record tit it. Poor memories
and slipshod ,cc; t:t,t;ng on your
par: ;, hitt in his trade.

Any good art: -t could copy the
signat re of aat,ther per.ot after
painstaking prttnticc. Iiut the for -
g -r does not fool the Itattdtvt•itit,g
analyst wlto takes a scientific ap-
proach, and doe, not rely otl mem-
ory or chance for signature identi-
fication. T'ite anal: st knows, thro•tg1t
the use of instruments, if the sig•
Mature is !•^nttitii' or not.
One clue itt idettifieation, are the
smooth even lines made itt free
flowing bariityrtins script as com-
pared will: Lim rough or corrugated
edges of lines mode by the attempt
to forge the fame writing, This is
one of the positive differences 1,e-
teeen a gen:tite signature and a
forged one.
As I have rel,tt,f in pres loos ar-
ticles, you t':ri,e according to the
tray yon thii 1: and -all your writing
takes the fora: cf mental activity.
As the think, Sit do we write. The
forger than has a decided handi-
cap, since he cannot think exactly
as you would, td must resort to
artistic inclinations to complete his
work in forging your signature. But
itis artistry is not good enough
to follow the trend of thought which
produces the pattern you make
with our ha:ul',vritin_ and that is
where the have hint.
'When we compare your writing
with the forged script, the forged
shows irregularities which ate ab-
sent in the gemrine script.

Today 1 quote from a wig' wife's
letter because it is sound and help-
ful. 1t is her ads ice to husbands,
particularly. She write-:
"In reading
your excellent

ried people really

lowed, I think wot!d keep things
running smoothly in every hone,
especially if used by husbands to-
ward their wives:
".\pprertatioit in large doses;
,.Consideration in medium doses;
"Recreation in small doses.
"Being appreciated means so
much to a wife. A little considera-
tion goes a long way. 'Ino much
recreation sometimes spoils things,
though it is needed to keep disposi-
tions from getting sour.

* setting the pattern for the mar-

Sunday School Lesson
Zechariah Pleads for
Righteousness.
Zechariah 1:1-4; 7:8-14; B:10-17
Golden Text: Execute true judg-
ment„ and show mercy and com-
passion every man to itis brother
— Zechariah, 7:1,,
Zechariah urged tate people to
continue with the building of the
temple of Jerusaleut, lest they dis-
please God as their fathers had
done. As Cod had exiled their
fathers from the land when they
turned away from I-Iint, they, too,
would he punished unless they were
converted and followed Cod's way.
* * *
As leaders and people refused to
hear the Prophet when the delivered
God's warning and instruction, so
Cod would not hear. Ile would not
alter Itis decision that they be de-
livered into c'aptiriq'. Ile would not
prevent the drrtruction of Jerusa-
lem.

The Cltalcleans came against
Judah like a whirlwind. Their vic-
tories were swift and the Jetts
were scatter.ti as strangers in
strange lands. While they were
gone their land 51 110 left desolate

lisity, Clod re-crvecl it for their re-
turn which lie had promised
through :rte prophets.

In Ilis purpose to do good to
Jerusalem and to the house of Ju-
dah, the Lord through Zechariah
commanded: "These are the things
that you roust do", First — "Let
every ratan tell the truth, in dealing
with his neighbor," Second — "Let
your decisions in courts be true and
for the couuuot good." Third —
"Plot no evil in your hearts against
another." Fourth — "Never give
yourselves to any perjury" And
why? "For all these are the things
that I hate!"
1f people were to follow Zecha-
riah': message from God, the founda-
tion for malicious gossip would be
destroyed. Since God hates evil im-
aginations, false oaths, injustice, and
lies, those who profess to love and
seine Him nest surely hate them
alio.
