The writing was slowly finished
and signet!.
"Stay with me!" whispered the
dying woman; and Patrick Ferguson
bowed his head.
The others trooped out of the
rooms, leaving him with her. Pen
waited, seated in a chair before the
door of the little hut.
The m'en were eating and drinking
in a group in the road. Miss Fergus-
on had wrapped Pen in shawls, and
found wine, which she made her take
and some bread to eat.
"I told them to bring horses as far
as they could. Finlayson has gone
on to see whether they are in sight,"
said Miss Ferguson.
Patrick crone from the room, car-

Finlayson was in sight, leading
two horses; and Pen was lifted upon

and held Pat, who was still half a-

They started upon the journey,
Patrick walked, leading Pen's -horse.
At Finlayson's house Miss Fergugson
waved her hand and continued her

his wife from her horse and carried

just one of the news items which are appearing in papers
quite too often these days throughout the Dominion. And
what is the reason? There is only one, and that is lack of
loyalty to home institutions and the lure of the flashings
publicity of the large city establishments. Many citizens,
while earning their wages and salaries in one place, never-
theless send a large proportion of this money out of the
community for questionable bargains, thus depriving such
community of that much necessary working capital.
Business %'M e
Do the Same
They have local firms who are able and ready to supply
them with all their requirements, yet for the most trivial
reason or excuse they will consent to extend this patronage
to outside firms, thus helping to build up distant cities at
the expense of their home town. They seem to forget that
this money so sent out might otherwise have been largely
returned to them by those with whom they should have left
this business. Therefore, when in need of printed matter of
any kind, whether farmer, business man or professional man,
always extend first consideration to
