Alice's hands tightened, and she was conscious that her; heart had be- gun to beat rather fast. Surely, if , Mrs. Egan hacl had a son, Lois—who seemed to know all about her—would. have heard of it. Could it be possible that Philip had made the statement in the confusion of being discovered in.' such a queer. attitude with Mrs. Egan? Alice her eyes, and saw it allover again—the woman kneeling, kissing his hand, and his raising her up with tender compassion.

She had met older women whose sun did not rise' and set with their husbands' com- ings and goings. "Ile wouldn't have married me if. he hadn't- cared for me," she assured herself time and again. Philip must have cared for her far and away- be- yond what most' men care for the women they reamer. - While else was having her solitary dinner, and not enjoying it very much, the telephone bell, rang., "The doctor wishes,to speak to you, madams". said the parlormaid.

He spoke as though that had been his intention from the first, but as a matter of fact it was a de- cision made an the spur of the mo- ment.

Once or twice he had been tempted to throw a bombshell into the hard and fast doctrine of proclivity, and proclaim the complete freedom of the individual as against; the genera) accepted slavery of atavism; He felt that in theory, at least; freedom was right, but could get no further then the unhappy conviction that it was no more •than theory.

The famous air of Davos -had worked miracles in some cases. If only they could get him there alive. But even then, there was so much against poor Max 'Egan— most of all, his, mixed blood and his age, and very likely his upbringing. The lazy life .of an indulged grand- child of a rich planter in the tropics did not make for stamina. As far as Ardeyne had been agile to discover, Max's most stronuoes exercise had been ridingabout the plantation with his grandather. He hadn't even been allowed to swim, for fear of the sharks which 'infested tthat particular part of_ the coal and made itvery dangerous. But he had done a rent many things which Europeanboys of 16, however precocious, scarcely dream of. His diet, as lar as Ardevne could l;a- they from Mts.

Much•, interesting .and valuable in- formation is contained in the repoot for 1928 of the Director' of the Domin- ion Experimental Farms, Mr. E. S. Archibald, B.A., : B.S.A. It tells in concise and condensed form of the do- ings in 1928 of the fourteen divisions of.which the -Central Farm at Ottawa. consists, ofthe twenty-three branch Farms and Stations, of the half dozen Substations in Yukon Territory, in Northern Alberta, Northern British Columbia, and Northern Quebec, and of the Illustration Stations, the num- ber, of which was increased during 1928 from 89 to 126 There were, when the report was prepared, six Illustra- tion Stations in Prince Edward Island, fifteen, in Nova Scotia, seventeen in New Brunswick, thirty-five in Quebec, seven in Ontario, twenty in Saskat- chewan, twelve in Alberta, and thir- teen In British Columbia. In every instance these Stations are established in districts where it .;oirsidered they will be of most assistance to farmers. With every province having its. Farms or Stations extending east, west, south and to the opened -up districts of the north, it will be seen that the Do- minion Experimental Farm System penetrates to ali'tlie .confines of the country.
