the girl's eyes, which had been wide

INCE the announcement in the Legislature last spring- that a Refer-
eSndum on the Ontario Temperance Act would be taken this fall, the
different temperance organizations of the province . of Ontario have
met together to consider what attitude they should *take. The result
has been the formation of the Ontario Referendum Committee, which
comprises representatives from the organized temperance forces of the
province and the temperance sentiment of the province outside -of these
organizations. The hew Committee will conduct the Campaign. We
are asking the voters of Ontario to vote "No" to : all questions sub-
mitted on . the ballot. -
The Referendum, Ballot
AND HOW TO' VOTE
1. Are you in favor of the repeal of THE ONTARIO TEMPERANCE
ACT?.
2. Are you in favor of the sale oflight beer containing not more than
two and fifty-one one hundredths per cent. alcohol weight measure
through Government agencies and amendments to THE ONTARIO
TEMPERANCE ACT to permit such sale? -
3. Are yob in favor of the sale of light beer containing not more than
two and fifty-one one hundredths per cent. alcohol weight measure
in standard hotels in local municipalities that by a majority vote
favor such sale, and amendments to THE ONTARIO TEMPERANCE
ACT to permit such sale?
Yes
4. Are you in favor of the sale of spirituous and malt liquors through
Government agencies and amendments to THE ONTARIO TEM-
PERANCE ACT to permit such sale? .
By the Ontario Temperance Act, sale °
and distribution of alcoholic liquors for
beverage purposes within the province
were prohibited. For practically three.
years the province has experienced the
good effects of this law.., Its repeal would
be &calamity. Any of the ainendments -
would spoil it. -
For the Temperance forces to win they
must secure four "No" majorities. That
is, a- majority for "No" on EVERY
question. The Temperance forces will be
defeated if there is a majority for "Yeah'
on any of the questions. You must
mark an X after each of the four ques-
tions, or your ballot is counted as spoiled.
A century of temperance progress in
this province is at stake in the coming
Referendum. The Ontario Referendum
Committee earnestly and respectfully
ask you to mark your X. in the "No'
column after each and every question,
as indicated in the sample ballot re-
produced herewith. -

showed itself 'iii her every feature as

man to the girl and back again, then
noting that the -machine was derailed
he seemed to comprehend. He remov-
ed his broad brimmed hat and bowed
to her, and Wilson could not but
marvel- at the change wrought upon.
his features by his smile. The sullen
mouth became a pleasing one set with
strong rows of even teeth, and the
steel in the eyes melted, to a softness
that made them seem almost kindly.
And when he spoke as his hat settled
upon his golden crown again- there
was a deep toned harp vibrant in his
voiee.
"Good day, Miss Findlay. 1 pre-
sume we are mutually surprised. You
have been in a railroad wreck, I see."
She acquiesced.
"Yes, it was dreadful. Only two
turned
left alive."She arose and
to-
wardswWilsonewho got upon his _feet
as well. "Mr. Cardiff and Mr. Wilson,
it is inevitable that you should know
each other. And as" mutual business
foes I am delighted that you should
meet first upon neutral ground. Mr.
Cardiff, as everyone hereabouts knows,
is woods manger of the Badger Com-
pany, while Mr. Wiilson—"• she paused
in - her introduction, hesitated after
the manner of one who mentallx, de-
bates swiftly, then conipleted her sent-
ence defiantly, "is our local manager "
A faint smile half of amusement and
half of contempt swept across
Cardiff's face, and Wilson felt the.
sharp sting of humiliation and anger.
Keenly enough he realized the desire
on Barbara's part to -champion him
and put him uport;K;,en equal footing
with this man, who next to the owners
was the head of the big business cor-
poration with whom her father had
waged so long and fierce a battle; but
still more keenly did he realize the
ridiculousness of such a championship.
It was as absurd as would have been
the introducing of a corporal under the
title of brigadier, and Wilson would
have infinitely preferred that she had
designated him as "one of our lumber
jacks" than try and promote him be-
fore the one who was now laughing
before his face. But he only smiled
carelessly as he thrust out his hand.
• "Which in other words, Mr. Cardiff,
means that I am Mr. Findlay's store-
keeper and bookkeeper at Archer," he
explained, growing secretly joyful as
he became cognizant of the fact that
the one who had -misrepresented him
to his humiliation was now in turn
squirming. Cardiff nodded his under-
standing. - _
"Draws the same pay whatever job
you call it" he announced. He thrust
out his hand and his fingers closed
about those of the other with the
constricting power of an anaconda.
And as Wilson met the pressure pound
for pound they stood eyeing each other
at point blank range, motionless, but•
straining like two bull moose who
lock antlers in a semi -friendly test-
. ing of each ' other's strength. But
1 Wilson relaxed his muscles not a whit,
and closer and more vise -like grew
Cardiff's .compress until a stinging
pain ran up the other's arm and
threatened to turn his placid smile into
a grimace of pain. Then, just when
a yielding seemed inevitable, the blond
giant dropped the bloodless knuckles
squarely upon the storekeeper. Where-
at Wilsonshifted his shoulders ' as
well and the pair stood flank to flank,
each to all appearances unconscious
that the other lived. The girl had been
watching them intently with silent
interest.
Cardiff spoke to her. "If you have
a few moments to spare, suppose we
sit down and have a little visit. -It
has been quite a time since we had
a confab, you know." No voice could
have been more deferential than was
that of the sonorous -toned man now
addressing her, yet Barbara seemed to
be edging from him at his every word.

•And he did That - very day the
upper gates were closed, and the next
morning the North Branch was a flat,
placid stream, shallow and bar inter-
spersed, impassable even by a row-
boat. Immediately Findlay sought
out Meyer and demanded that the lat-
ter give him flood water that he might
float his logs down; whereat the., other
man threw aside his mask and faced
him uncompromisingly. He was a
wiry Haan, half Scotch and half Jew,
keen, absolutely unscrupulous and a-
fraid of nothing mortal.

began to grow angry.

I cut. - And Pll further admit that
