Then grim circumstance settled for the time being Ivor's difficult' ties, for Just ,before the proclama- tion of peace he was wounded in the left leg, and while that was but partly healed fell a victim to typhoid fever. • Those were sad and anxious days and days which set, their mark on Jean. That morning, in her hand a let- ter giving a more hopeful account of her husband, she had wandered out on to the terrace after break- fast, and'stood leaning against the balustrade looking out over the river and the meadows heavy with ,hay. Her thoughts dealt'with the problems of her life. In ordinary circumstances she would have has- tened to her husband, but, as things were, was it not better to leave the care of him to others? Suddenly this beautiful woman felt very lonely. Her 11fe seemed empty of all good. After all she was not responsible for her ,abnormality, Had she been hunch -backed no one would have blamed her, how could they blame her that she had -been created with this physical and mental disgust of sex obligations, which stifle as she would -she could not hide, In her soul she still cherished the feeling• that celibacy and purity were one and- the same. She hon- estly believed and with truth, that it was possible for Ivor to live a single life, but she failed' entirely to realize what such a life meant to a man of her husband's temper- ament. Yet, in spite of her con- victions, she was haunted by the sense that she was a failure: she was not popular in the neighbor- hood, neither was she loved by her children nor by her household— the one person to whom she mat- tered was her mother. Jean was truthful, just, consider- ate to her inferiors, She would. perform what she took to be her duty at any sacrifice of her per- sonal wishes, but she had none of that warm human sympathy which brings its possessor in touch with the inner life of others. Jean pun. out no magnetic men- tal tentacles towards her fellow - beings, and went her way admired, respected and unloved,. Her mentality was not great, and her thoughts worked slowly and with difficulty. She possessed in perfection; that strange quality of belief in she knew not what. Jean declared quite truthfully that she believed, in this, In, that, in, the other—subjects about which she knew nothieg, and had never ex- ercised her limited powers of thought. Yet she believed and be- lieved, so firmly that she would have suffered severely in defence of those beliefs. Incapable as, she was of making herself popular, she yet craved popularity, and felt a jealousy of the love acid friends -hip Whitt Ivor gained so easily.

'Whereupon a force of Winnipeg citizens, carrying clubs, with Jas. H. Ashdown prominently in the lead, went forth to "the battle of "Fort Whyte, as it was .called. A cold war it would be called now.

By 1501 the Northern Pac#fic`had close upon 400 miles of taacle in Manitoba. Rodmond Palen Roblin (later Sir) was Premier. In . St. Paul early in that year a contract was signed by Robert Rogers, Min- ister of Public Works, ,by which the Manitoba Government . took over the mileage, The act of the legislature embodying that con- tract was assented to March; 15, 1901. Five days later an act of the legislature was assented to, embodying a contract signed. by Premier Roblin, which established lower freight and passenger rates on -that mileage, transferred to the Canadian Northern, than the rates on the C.P.R. ,Nate the difference in the signature for Manitoba, Not long before the signing of these two contracts two signatures were written one day on the regis- ter of McGee's. restaurant in St. Paul, "R. Palen" and "John Alex- ander." They were written, re- spectively, by Premier Roblin and John A. Davidson, Provincial Treasurer of Manitoba, who- chose thus to disguise themselves be- cause they were in St. Paul to negotiate the taking over •of the Northern Pacific mileage north of the boundary to be transferred. to; the new -born -Canadian Northern,' in order to obtain lower rates than 1 the Roblin Government had.been able to have the C.P.R. agree to.

"I'll come, Mamma. Let me put, my letters away first." She moved through one of the long windows into the morning - room, laid her letters methodical- ly in the basket labelled "unan- swered,," and: together the two wo- men mounted the stairs. The nurseries were dusted and tidied, and Anne was just depart- ing with John, the elder twin, dressed for his walk. Nurse looked tired and anxious, and led the way to the bedroom where little Hugh lay drowsing in his cot. "He didn't seem quite the thing yesterday, ma'am, and I've been up and down with him all night. I should be glad if you would send for the doctor, ma'am." "Of course," said Jean. "Anne, please go and ask Ford to tele- phone at once." She was leaning over the cot, looking at the little boy's flushed face and heavy eyes, and suddenly something seemed to stab through her. heart. Was the 'child really ill? Could it be possible that there was dan- anger? ger? In the dreadful days which fol- lowed . Jean learned what it is to fight for the life of a little tortur- ed child, and during that time she suddenly awakened to the realiza- tion of her love for this little boy.
