The rattling of the cab over the atones 'aid
not waken him. When they reached the
avenue the driver carried him in with the
help of the steward who had juat got up.
He slept until very late in the evening.
Wheu he awoke his aervant bad to explain
aeveral times what had happened. Oliver
did not understend. When his .raernory re.
turned. -to the full realization of his life, he
uttered a groan and fainted. Over and
above what he owned himself and all that he
had won, Oliver had lost about a hundred
thousand francs, without having the firet
cent towards paying it. If he did not secure
these hundred thousand francs by the next
day he was ruiued, disgraced, with nothing
before bim but suicide. He ruahed to the
club, borrowed a few dellara, played, and at
first won with a strange persistency. The
sweat stood out on his ,orehead, his hands
ehook, he was incapable of self-control, hie
breathing was so hoarse that people looked
at him in astonishment. He saw a pile of
gold and bank notes swelling before hire.
The pile melted away, and Oliver once again
had nothing at all. He went home and
Shut himself up in his room. All night he
brooded over his pordtion. How could he
get these huudred thousand 'francs 7 Gam-

he never could get it at that time of night.

he could pay that debt, nobody woule
blame his tardiness and would not be hard
on him for it. He had a day then to count
upon. With dread he saw the dawn pieree

Meanwhile Liverquet had entered the
closet which Served, him as a sleeping room.
in one corner near the chimney piece there
was a telephone. The usurer pressed the
button and asked for coralection. A mo-
ment afterwards the electric tinkle was
heard, and Liverquet shouted, "Hello, is
that you Mauborgue. It is I, Liverquet."
" All right," said a distant voice, "what
do you want ?"
"You will be visited by Ma Oliver Bar-
gemoet who has lost a hundred thousand
franca at play, and hasn't the first cent to

"Thank you. Bergemont, eh 1 an old

"Too old. Its fortune has had Vane to

"Then there is nothing to be mede ? '
"Nothing."
"Thanks, my patriarch."
"Well au revoir." "Au revoir." And the
telephone rang off.
Oliver was received at Lafitte street
by a lacquey in livery who ushered him
into a handsomely furnished office, adorn-
ed with engravings and other works
of art. Mauborgue kept him wait-
ing some minutes long enough to give him
time to admire all the pretty things that
were scattered about; and shevting beyond
doubt the presence of a fortune ample enough
to lend itself to such costly superfluities.

Mr. C. H. Lugrin, Secretary for Agricul-
ture in New Brunswiek, has just delivered
a lecture, in which he predicts that the

agricultural resources insufficient to meet
the needs of the people. He calculates that

1,250,000,000 acres of farina to aupply the

Lugrin there are only 960,e00,00e aCrOB of
arable lands in the Repablic. Therefore the
people well have to draw their food. eupply
from Canada or sense other country. The
lecturer adds that the Dorninion of Canada
