"Yes, sir," agreed the old pian, ut3-. perturbed. "There's a situation here which should have been reported to the main office before this." Kavanagh did not reply; he jutted out his thick eyebrows as if puzzled to guess how all this concerned him, "I'm not going to beat about the bush, sir. You know the river and the present conditions even better than I do. Our drive has been strand- ed, or at least stands a show of be- ing stranded." "Hung up, we I1 it in these parts," corrected "Olid X. K." "You're. a practical man, Mr. Kav- anagh. What is your opinion?

I'm here on Sobois Grand. The river is still running : up there. Throw-in your jackstraws and come along." He turned to the tailor. "And now back to something in the `line of real business!

"It wouldn't bother nae a mite, I'm quite sure," Vice-president Donaldson had rais- ed his voice and was expressing him- - self with great vigor. "Walk her 'round -walk her 'round, boys!" snapped their master. "Don't you hear this Temiscouata gent order- ing us to get- out of his way? Walk er 'round! - Hup! ' Hup!" Then with thumb at his ear he wriggled his fingers; it was his call for song. His men clutched the big bars, bent to their work, and began their stamp- ing march, the spikes of their shoes biting into the weather -gray planks that were already chewed and sliver- ed by the thrusting feet which had trod there in weary rounds year af- ter year. To escape the circling bars Donald- son was obliged to retreatt to the edge of the platform; -thus, did "Old. X. K." obtain for himself a certain kind of privacy and maintain as much aloofness in his woods "office" as did Stephen Marthorn behind his paneled oak and his . crusted glass in New York.

Kavanagh's men parted at wave, of his hand so that he might secure clear view. Beside the r6wers in the bateau were some of the Temiscouata: bosses who had been barking at his heels; there was also a personage who wore a hard hat and had an urban air. , . "Meet Mr. Donaldson, Mr. 'Kav- anagh," called the drive -master, of the Temiscouata Company. _ He lnade the introduction with a wave of his hand and with a pompous tone which suggested that here, at last, was wood." somebody who wore the royal purple "But the waters are not yours, sir. of authority. The dams are on our lands." "Old X. K." in his shirt -sleeves, "You sa3 so," returned Kavanagh, cap and jacket_ at his feet, gray ,hair coolly. "I say so about a lot of my lands. Say-so can beat titles up here —especially soldiers' grants and tax titles --but the say-so has got to be backed up with this!" He raised his big hands in the air and §lowly clinch - "Do you mean that you're on this s river to fight us, Kavanagh?" "I'll fight no man if he keeps out from under my feet and is decent of speech. And do ye keep those blus- terers away from here after this!" He pointed to the men in the bateau. "I'll have no dealings with 'em. My drive is on its way." "It's on its way because you have blown splash -dams on the.- tributary strews' in order to '•wise the water! You have stolen the ,water away from us."

I insist—" The head chorister bawled a pro- longed "Oh -h -h h!?' to pitch the key. Then they were off! "Come all ye bean -fed larrifan ;lads And listen unto .me; I'll sing a song to the tune we played With a cross -cut on a tree. Spit in yer fists and man the ends, A rock to ride the, middle, ` Ram her over and ram her back, And that's the old gash -fiddle. Slivers and sawdust and swagon stew. We're the bullies of Kavanagh's crew." The vice president of the Tern- iscouata remained for a time, . but finally his dignity could no longer endure this intolerable baiting. The uselessness of attempting. anything further with Kavanagh was apparent. The old man would not even look the way of the important emissary from the metropolis. Therefore Donaldson went away in his `bateau, white with rage, andKavanagh, rid- ing ing around and around on the capstan foot, . was measured for his finery. The news that John Kavanagh and the Great Temiscouata he openly and vengefully declared' war on each other was news that had to do with vast property interests and with imperiled values. ° But a clinch of that sort was to be expected, anyway, and the mat- ter was not much 'discussed in the Toban. However, the news that John Kavanagh was going to buy a plug - hat and wear it down to his daugh- ter's graduation kept all tongues busy. •That was real news! ' Donaldson, after conferences with experts and bosses, and after patch- ing up makeshift methods of insuring at extra cost, the belated delivery of at least a portion of the pulp -stuff drive, hurried to New York and re- ported on Kavanagh's nature and characteristics to Col. Stephen Mar - thorn, He gave to the old dog of the north woods not one redeeming quality. Nor would Kavanagh, if con- sulted, have solicited more considera- tion from a man wh:oin he was fight- ing. "As hard as rock from his head to his toes. Can beat no .sense into - him nor get any ordinary, human, business intelligence out," reported the- second trice -president to his chief. "He would rather have his own way than make money. He wouldn't even let our men help him in getting his drive out of our way. lie has stolen so much, himself, that he can't figure anybody else as anything expect a thief. And the troubles is, sir, men of his kind seem to outlive all the decent and honest men." Immediately after expressing that opinion Vice-president Donaldson produced surveyors' maps which had been handed to- him in the north `country by employees and laid them before the president. The outstanding and significant features of those maps were explain- ed by the vice-president as he trailed his finger along dotted black linea and drove down an emphatic thumb on lines of solid red. He was showing his chief what bad been accomplished in the way of increasing 'the holdings of the Great Temiscouata. He had much to say about relocation . of bounds by taking advantage of the early explorers' vague or confusing nomenclature; he dropped slight hints about fortifying the memories of old inhabitants by the use of a little cash; in eases where the syndicate field bosses had taken possession without bothering to untangle titles,` Mar- thorn was assured that there would be small chance of trouble; the parties who had been jumped were too poor to hope to 'be able to fight a big-, corporation in the courts. "At least ten thousand acres , clean gain without actually buying a foot, and a lot of stumpage options, in the bargain, where we're paying cer- tain wise ones to keep their mouths shut; it's, better business than trying to hunt up real owners." Such was Donaldson's enthusiastic 'report to his superior. / Colonel Marthorn, who, as had been stated, kept out of the north conutry so that details might not interfere with his sense of perspective, was in a better mental position than Donald- son to note the inbarneony of what the Mothers' Advice The responsibility for a daughter's future largely rests with the mother. The right influence and the Information which is of vital interest to the daughter imparted' at the proper time has not only saved the life but insured the success of many a beautiful girl. .

Y.—hi cannot prait;e Lydia Z. Pini ham's Vegetable Compound enough for what it has done for my daughter. She was 15 years of age, very sickly and pale and she had to stay home from school most of the time. She suffered agonies from backache and dizziness and was.without appetite. For 3 months she wait under the doctor's care and got no better; always complaining about her back and side aching so - I did not know what to do. I read in the papers about our wonderful medicine so I made up my mind, to try it. She has taken five bottles of Lydia E Pinkhatn's Vegetable Compound and doesn't complain any more with her back and side aching She hsa gained in weight and feels much better. I recommend Lydia E.

Pi Vegetable ain's- Compound vice-president had said regarding 'John Kavanagh's abhorrent depravity compared . with the Donaldson -an- nounced policy of the Great Temis- couata. Stephen Marthorn rubbed his nose! The top Ietter of a sheaf awaiting his signature carried a most gracious agreement to give liberally to a lay -man's movement for moral uplift a- mong young men. He noted, while he meditated, a few lines in the let- ter, expressing his sentiments as to moral uplift. He was not a hypocrite; the sentiments were sincere. Per- sornally, he had never subscribed to villainy. He had publicly deplored certain tendencies in "big business." He wondered if the vice-president realized just how brazenly he had de- clared the principles of the picaroon. "How long have you been down from the - woods, Mr. Donaldson?" "I reached -the city last night.". "You find conditions very hard to handle up there, eh?" "With a club in each hand and a knife between your teeth!" declared Donaldson, ferocity in tone aind eyes. "I've had a tough trip!" • With a compassionating smile - did President Marthorn take off some edge of his rebuke. _ "I truly wish you had deferred your statement to me until some of that wildwood spirit had been smoothed by fresh contact with the city. Pretty raw and brutal!" "Well, the situation isn't much dif- ferent from what it has been- from • r the start." "Probably not. I fear not._ But I always have - think, in the past, you h a . clothed business facts in 'business terns: " "You'll" have to make allowance for 1 -the state of mind 1 am in.

"Colonel, we have bought when-' ever we have found settled titles; all our first tracts were secured that way. But to buy—to put our good money into sellers' fists when titles are not clear—is inviting unending blackmail from all Kinds of claimants.

Plain Facts about Milk Routes s A team of horses costs about $40'0, double harness $100, a wagon $75, makinga total of $575. A Ford Truck,costs $750 at Ford, nt. Government experiments have proved that the cost of feeding a horse is 8.7 cents per working hour,or 17.4 cents per team per hour: One team, if collecting milk, could not cover more than 30 miles a day. The cost for twelve hours would be $2.09 or about seven cents a mile. The cost for gas and oil for a Ford Truck is only 4y cents a mile. The Ford Truck soon pays for itself m the reduced cost of operation. A Ford Truck will cover at least 60 miller a day col- lecting milk or 250 miles on long hauls. It enables you to operate at a lower cost per mile and to covet' twice as much territory as with horses. Ford One -Ton Truck (Chassiii only) e750 f. o. it. Ford, Ont.
