FREE SAMPLE of GREEN TEA UPON REQUEST, "SALADA, ' TORONTO A NEGATIVE RESULT BY WALTER E. GROGAN. PART II. A granite boulder was embedded in the earth a few yards away. Was it possible that some one could remain hidden behind it? The Political Mag- nate, despite the sun, suddenly felt cold. He walked briskly round the stone. It was as he feared. The ground at the back was considerably lower ,, than in front. In the hollow, propped against the granite, sat a man. And beside him that horrible thing, a hand camera. The man was staring out over the moor: His eyes were vividly blue. He turned his head as the Pol- itical Magnate approached him, and then resumed his stare over the heather. The Political Magnate thought rap- idly. The wind was off shore and both the General and himself had spoken. quietly. It was almost impossible that the man. could have heard anything. But the camera! He had one terrify- ing errify ing moment in panic. "Wonderful view," said the Political Magnate affably. "WonderfuI," the Tuan agreed. "You have a camera, I see. Been a good day for that sort of thing?" "Quite good. Perhaps a little too much light though." The man betray- ed very slight interest. There was a lack' of that enthusiasm which pro- claims the amateur. The Political. Magnate's heart sank. Evidently a professional operator; probably press.I "Have you taken many--er plc- tures?" ` The man smiled. It was—a most alarming matter --a peculiarly grafiel P fie to d smile. It suggested much 1 Political Magnate. "All the plates iitie have been exposed " he man said.-": 'ty that'ther se no more." �� Oh !Cal � Magna Y• .

The Political Mag- nate winced. "Ah, yes. I suppose so. Is there much to be made at it? As a commer- cial proposition is it remunerative?" "Not if it is merely a hobby." The man smiled again..A baffling man, a man who was cautious, who was anxi- ousnot to give himself away and yet a man who cul at could not help smiling his own thoughts. He was'careful too not; to meet the Political Magnate's ingratiating look, but stared steadily out over the landscape. "You may sell an occasional negative to a paper you know." "Yes, I know," the Political Mag- nate replied quickly. "Look here, what do you want for your outfit— all of it, camera, plates, all " "Want for it?" The man's voice sounded puzzled. t ,"I should like to buy it. It's—it's a whim of mine, I have these sudden impulses. Just name your.own price." t He took oualg large handkerchief e dk rchief artd mopped his face. Curiously enough, although the perspiration rolled down his forehead, he felt cold and clammy. "It is not mine to sell," the man told him. It is the property of his paper, the Political Magnate thought with a shudder. "You can get as many as you like at the chemists in Coombe Regis." "1 can't spare the time," the Politi- cal Magnate cried. "Besides, I have taken a particular fancy to yours. And the plates. That is the great in- ducement—I want the pictures you have taken." "You admire this bit of, wild moor- land and sea?" the man asked conver- sationally. "It is very fine." "No, I hate it. I mean -there is a particular reason why I want those records, as you probably guess." Why was the man fencing so absurdly? He must be well aware of the value of his negatives. Was he merely marking time while he determined the amount, he would ask? "You know who I am, of course?" "No," said the man. "What!" The Political Magnate stared at him blankly. Was it pos- sible that there was a man in the country who was not acquainted with his features? "No, I don't know you.=r And I can't guess why you wantthe camera." "Look at me." The man shifted his eyes quickly and 'then resumed star- ing. "No, I don't know you," he as- serted. "Did you say you were going to .send the photographs to a paper?" The Political Magnate was mystified. The man . seemed genuine enough in his assertion that he did not know him. But it really was almost un- believable. "If they develop all right theints will certainly go up to a paper. here is alwatlortftfMce Ore or two wj beasi cen��, y��o u know." t q Ac ncel It would. be funny if it were not so horrible "Look here, let's talk over this mat- ter. I want your outfit. I must have it. I' can't talk to you lying down there. Pm restless. Let's stroll back. You you will want to develop or whatever it is and time is going on." He took a few hasty nervous paces. "I—I can't walk," said the extra- ordinary man. "I have to wait here until my nephew comes for me." "Lame!" The Political Magnate's brain whirled. His hand went to his breast pocket and he drew out a wal- lee "Oh, you poor fellow, I see. The war. Artificial limbs. Oh, you poor man." "Yes." The man sighed even at the moment . that his inscrutable •smile twitched his sensitive lips. "I was out there." "How sad. And you can't walk I must have that camera." He stoop- ed with sudden impulsiveness and thrust a wad of notes into the man's right hand. "What's this?" cried the man, start- ng,ibut making no effort to look •at he notes. "Payment for the outfit." The Politi- cal Magnate seized the camera and he satchel and started to run. The man swore loudly after ' him. The Political Magnate ran all the faster. An hour later the man woke up at the sound of a human voice. ""Pulford," he cried. "What's hap- pened to Tom? He went off ,to Coombe Regis to get more plates somewhere about eleven. I gtiess it's about five now." "Just on," Dr. Pulford replied. "Tom sprained his ankle badly -corn- ing back to you. It was a long time before he made anybody hear. lie's in my surgery now and will do well." The man held up his right hand with the wad of notes. "Look at that, Doc," he said. "Sonne madman gave them to me and scooted with Tom's camera and all. He must have come up here when I was asleep. He wasn't here when Tom left me. The beggar never found out what was the matter with me," he added proudly. • "Good heavens!"" ' Dr. Pulford cried in astonishment. "Two hundred and fifty pounds." Then he stooped down, helped the man up, and taking him by the arm, led' him homeward. The man was. blind, (The End.) after every meal Cleanses mouth and teeth and aids digestion.
