With the injection into the banquet of an element so sensational and startling, Rudolph Van Veehten's de- sire to depart vanished; be was not unaffected by the excitement that stirred the rest of the company. But presently he observed that the incb dent conveyed a special meaning to certain of those present—particularly to his uncle. Was the whole thing a huge prat, tical joke? The Man of Iron pointed out that if it was, it must have been an ex- Pensive one for the perpetrator. Then came the suggestion of an infernal machine, and once more a hush fell upon the gathering. These men, however, were not lack ing in courage. Very cautiously the casket was removed from the box, the box was taken away, and the former was given the place of honor, where it reposed like a beautiful but matt tractive epergne. In the silence that accompanied this operation a distinct ticking sound, emanating from the casket, was plain, ly audible, and the diners, some of them overturning chairs in their 'haste, recoiled to the walls, where they stood staring in horror at this unwelcome prefiguration of the grave Good going June 80th and July 1st. Return limit July 2nd, 1915. Return tickets will be sold between all stations in Canada east of Port Arthur. your tickets early at Grand Trunk ticket offices, At this moment a quiet voice was heard to say: "Carefully, gentlemen; a slight jar (might prpve disastrous." The company turned to behold a man of impressive appearance. He might have been one of them, though none had seen him previously that night. His white hair, his smooth - shaven, finely wrinkled face, his mag- netic eyes, were all a part of a com- manding personality, and it was no more than natural that he should be looked to for an explanation of then episode. Perfectly composed, there was no mistaking the fact that he completely ,dominated the situation. Van Vechten noted that his uncle recognized the man, and that the Man of Iron's attitude all at once became One of tense, alert watchfulness. With an air that impelled many to ollow his example, the stranger con-. suited his watch; an average declara- tion of all the watches would have fixed the time at twelve minutes' till �hidnlght. Ile advanced to the table, from Which everybody else shrank as far as the confines of the vast room per- mitted, and laid a hand upon the casket. glancing once more at the Watch, which he still held in the other band y remarked: "gentlemen, qntlemen, this coffin contains !enough willardito to wipe' New York ,off the map. It is connected with one of my time -locks, set to detonate the explosive' at midnight precisely." His , commanding regard met Theodore Van Vechten's, as he added: "No one better than you knows how (likely it is to work without a hitch." In the ensuing' quiet, the ticking, as of a clock, which he plainly heard. After, a moment he went on: "I shall not take the time to apolo- gize for this interruption of your fes- tivities, because"—another glance at the watch—"only ten minutes stands between this ;moment and midnight. p5Ftected timelbek' dad permaliggn' steel—the only metal that will with- stand the osY Y h ric flame -combined with Theodore Van Vechten's business talent and hiscommanding co mn landing ,position, wherefrom he can persuade every ono of the country's financial institutions to purchase an Atlas safe, whether they waut it or not, the concern's in- itial year has been a phenomenally prosperous one. "You gentlemen who are fortunate to be among the stockholders, and Theodore' Van Vechton, are reaping the harvest; I get nothing—the in- ventor's portion. "Through my lack of business aeu.. mon I was frozen out of the company, ,and it did not fake long to discover that every avenuo of legal redress was closed to me. Please bear in mind that fact. "Then what remained for Mme?" The brilliant eyes swept the wondering audience.: "Why, either to accept the situationas Theodore Van Vechten willed it, or, , recover my rights by force; "Now, gentlemen, virtually I have been robbed of a fortune. I am not seeking vengeance—no, . no; nothing of that kind—only justice and com- pensation. I have spent months in preparing for tonight; more than once my secret operations have nearly met with shipwreck, and you must realize that I come here fully determined to exact the uttermost farthing of my dues, or else not one of you will live to enjoy them. Call it blackmail, call it a hold-up, call it whatever you will, the fact is that I am here to enforce —not to beg or ask, mind you—but to enforce a distribution of my share rl, the profits of the Atlas Safe Com- pany, and my reinstatement into the position of superintendent of which I have been unjustly deprived—" Theodore Van Vechten had gradual- ly returned to the head of the table, and he now stood with his hands on the back of his chair, composedly re, garding the speaker. The latter's eyes met the Man of Iron's intent look, and he added: "—or else I shall annihilate every one of you and myself." He looked at his watch again. "You all understand. You have just six minutes within which to make up your minds." Tho Man of Iron was not of the stuff that is easily frightened—else he would not have been the Man of Iron. He was taken unawares and rendered bewildered—as who would not have been?—but he was first to recover him- self. His voice rang out with an au- thoritative command that the casket be removed. The intruder, with one hand still ly- ing lightly at an end of the handsome casket, the other still bolding his watch, calmly interposed: "Just a moment—if you please. I have only to press a trifle harder upon this bit of ornament and the explo- sion will be precipitated. I trust— for your sakes; I don't care so much for myself—that you will not force me to such an extreme, "However, I have come here pre- pared for any turn.

An impulsive movement of Theo - dere Van Vechten's was followed by a gasp of horror; for the stranger was so self-possessed and determined that nobody doubted his dispassionate dec- laration. It was only too obvious that he would do to the last extreme exact. ly what ho said he would. The Man of Iron's fists suddenly clenched, and he took a step toward • the speaker. The man's magnetic eyes turned upon him with a steady, inscrutable look. "Theodore Van Vechten," the quiet voice went on, "it lowers the high feeling of respect and' admiration which I entertain for your genius to, see you choose the role of fool now." "Max Willard," retored Van Vechten evenly, "you know me well enough to, recognize that I can not be coerced; So it is you 'who are playing the part of fool. Can't you see that this means your utter ruin?" Said the other: "Everything that hu- man agency can accomplish toward that end has been done—by you, Theo-, dore. And now, just one more chance. Your niece has been missing for some time, has she not?" Theodore Van Vechten started. The inventor went on; "I merely want to' add that—in addi-, tion to a well -calculated charge of 'wiliardite—she too is in this casket— alive at this moment" Again he glanced at his .watch.

SCHOOL Lesson I Thilld Quarter, For July 4, 1915. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, 11 Sam. xviii, 1.15. Memory Verse, 5—Golden Text, Eph. vi, 1—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. Our lesson title is "Absalom's L'etI• ure," but "Absalom's sin and over- throw" verthrow" might perhaps have been bet- ter. There is not so much of profit in the lesson verses as there is in what precedes and follows, and as this is our last lesson in this book we must gath- er all we can in the space at our dis- posal. Our last lesson was in chapter xii, and because of David's great sin he was told that the sword should nev- er depart from his house and that the Lord would raise up evil against bleu out of his own house (xii, 10. 11). There is always a reaping from all sowing, either good or bad (Gal, vi, 7; Hos:•viii, 7). Chapter xiii tells of the beginning of bis household troubles anti of the flight of Absalom and his sojourn three years in Geshur. Chap- ter xis, tells of the plea of the wise woman of Tekoa nucl of Absalom's re- turn to Jerusalem and reconciliation with his rather after dwelling two years there without seeing his face (xiv, 25-33). Absaiom's remarkable beauty is described in verses 25, 26.

Durid's crusting time Iiidron and.goin up try Olivet (votses 23, 30) is so suggestive of our Lord's. doing the same thing .bemuse of the. rebellion of His son Ismael (John sviil, 1). The notable words of devotion ou the part of David's servants and of Ittaf_the Gittite (versos 15, 21) should be our continual heart words to our Lord .Teens. See also the devotion of Ilushai, David's friend, in verses 3.2.37, and David's submission to the will of God in verses 25, 20. Chapter xvi tells of Shimei's cursing and how David left him wholly to God.. Chapter xvii describes the suicide of Ahithophal be- cause the counsel of. IIushai was pre- ferred to his: It also tells of David's friends who so kindly cared for him at Mahanaim. Our ,lesson. chapter xviii, tells of the battle between Absa lom's army and that of David and of the defeat' of the former and. the death of Absalom. It is truly pathetic to listen to David's instructions to the leaders of his hosts, "Deal gently for my sake with the young man, even with Absalom" (verse 5), and then to hear his heartbroken cry when he learned.thet Absalom had been slain: "O my son Absalom, my son, my sou Absalom! Would God I had died for thee, 0 Absalom, my son, my son" (verse 33.) See also xis, 4. Does it not help to make more real the love of God in giving up His only begotten Son to dio for us? (John iii, 16; I John iii, 16; iv, 9, 10: Rom. vili, 32. The folly of seeking to make a name for oneself is seen in verse ls. A grand illustration of the significance of the command in Bali. ii, 2, is seen in les• son verses 19-32. The words are, "Write the vision, and make. it plain upon ta- bles, that he may run that readeth it," but they are generally misquoted, "that he that runs may rend," as if one could take it in as they do the ndvor- tisements by the roadside when trav- eling sixty miles an hour by train. The true meaning evidently is, get the message correctly and then ran anti tell, it. In our lesson Cushi had the message, for he had seen what he was to tell. Although insistent, Ahinlaaz wee the fleetest messenger, he knew noth- ing, and his running was in vain (verses 21, 29, 30), and he had to stand aside. And there are many running today whom God never sent. They know nothing, but the worst of it is that they take pride in not knowing and yet insist that they have been sent. It is blessed to be able to say, "That which we have seen and board deplore we unto yon," "We cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard" (T John 1, 3; Acts iv, 20).

But he asked David to take Ohimham :lad show him Icindnese, which thing David was glad to do (xix, 31-40). It would seem from ,Ter. xIi, 17, that David conferred on Chim- Iham his personal patrimony at Beth- lehem, and It may have been there that the Messiah was born, on Ohimham's property. 38 Flo -License Convictions North Huron Inspector Makes Ir- teresting Report for Two Years Wingham, jun 20—License Inspector J. .1.
