just as he had slipped from .her sad-

heard the awful news? Whispering
Smith was killed yesterday in Wil-

McCloud i3tiffened a little. "I hope
that can't be true. We have had no-
thing here but rumors; perhaps it is
these that you have heard."
"No, no! Blake' one of our men,

Blake saw him fall from the saddle
after he was shot, and everybody ran
away, and Du Sang and two other
men were firing at him as he lay on
the ground. He could not possibly,
have escaped with his life. Blake said,
he must have been riddled with bullets.
Isn't it terrible?" She sobbed sudden-
ly, and McCloud, stunned at her words
led her to his chair and bent over
her.

ey?"
The very calmness of the two at the
table disconcerted the despatcher. He
held the mesage in his band and shuffl-
ed his feet. "Give m&your despatch,"
said McCloud impatiently.
Quite unable to take his hollow eyes
of Dicksie, poor Rooney advanced,
handed the telegram to McCloud and
beat an awkard retreat.
McCloud devoured the words of the
message at a eance.
"Ah!" he cried, "this is from Gor-
don himself, sent from Sleep Cat. He
must be safe and unhurt! Listen:
"Three of the Tower W men trailed

"Those are Gordon's initials; it is

me. You see, this was sent last night
long after Blake left. He is safe; I
will stake my life on it."

read the message. "Oh, isn't that 7.

Yesterday and To -day
Wooden shingles of twenty or thirty years ago were .of splendid
quality. and anewered the purpose very well. Them was nothing
better ,at that time. Injact no other roofing material was on the
market. Yet who would think of ,putting on shingles to -day? . When
the deterioration of wooden shingles became noticeable, efforts were
paade to invent a roofing that would not only be an economical
and permanent substitute for wooden shingles, but one that would
outlast them in service.
Brantford Roofing was the result. It has "made good.". The
secret of ita success is this: First, the base is of pure, long -fibred
felt which is thoroughly saturated with asphalt or mineral pitch.
The asphalt and crystal roll roofings are then thickly coated with
crushed rock particles, which adhere tightly to that base, and the whole
forms a permanent fireproof, water -tight roof.
Brantford Asphalt and Rubber Roofing are made in three
different weights. Crystal is made in heavy weight only, and
in red or green natural colors. All three grades are pliable and
well suited to either flat or steep roofs.
rant ord
Roofing
comes in rolls with protected ends. The layers do not edck together
and the roofing is easily laid. It requires no painting
or tarnug
when put on. It does aot crack with itte cold nor melt with ike
summer's -heat. It does not curl, split, rust or blow offit gives
permanent weatherand fire protection at areasonably low initial dist.
