(Continued from Last 'Week)
Mrs. Murray turned and looked
curiously into her face and Smiled,
and thenKateblushed all the more.
"I think that may explain things
that have been mysterinus to me,"
she said.
"Oh, what, auntie?" cried Harry;
"I am most anxious to know." -
"Never mind," said Mrs. Murray;
"I,‘ will explain to Kate."
'That' won't help me any, She is a
niost secretive persen, twiddles us all
round her fingers an never lets us
know anything until it's done. It is
most exasperating. Oh, I say, Kate,"
added Harry, suddenly, "would you
mind dropping me at the florist's
here?"
"Why? Oh, 'I see," said Kate,
drawing in her team. "How do you
• do, Lily? Harry' is anxious to select
• some floaters," she said, hewing to a
Pretty girl on: the sidewalk.
"Kete, do stop it," besought Harry,
in et- low voice, as .he leaped out of the
cereiage. "Good by, auntie, Fil see
yOu- this evening. Don't believe all
Kate tells you," he added, as they
drove away.
"Are you too tired for a turn in the
park," said Kate, "or shell we drive a
home?" •
A drite is always preasant. Besides
one can talk about some things with
more freedom ih a carriage than face
to face in one's room. The horses
require attention at critical moments,
and there are alveays points of inter-
est when it is important .that conver-
sation should be deflected from the
subject in hand, so Once Mrs. Mur-
ray was willing, Kate turned l into the
park, For an hour they drove. along
its shady, winding roads while Mrs.
Murra,y talked of many things, but
mostly of Ranald. and of the tales that
the Glengarry people had of him. For
wherever there was, lumbering to be
done, sooner or later there were
Glengahy men tb be found, and Ran-
ald had found them- in the British
Columbia forests. And to 'heir -peo-
ple at home their letters spoke of
Ranald and his doings at first doubt-
fully, soon more confidently, but al-
ways with pride! To Macdonald
Bhain a rare letter came, from Ronald
now and then, which he would carry
to Mrs. Murray with a difficult pre-
tense of modesty. iFor with Macdone
ald Bhain, Ranald ,was a great man.
"But he is not quite sure of him,"
said Mrs. Murray. "He thinks it is
a very queer. way of lumbering, and
the wages, he, considers excessive .e
"Does he say that?" asked. Kate.
"That's just what Colonel Thorp says
his company are saying. But he
stands -up for Ranald even when he
can't see that his way is the best.
The colonel is not very sure about
.Ranald's schemes for the men, his
reading -room, library, and that 8ort
of thing. But Pm, sure he will sue-.
oeed." But Kate's tone belied. her
•eonfident words.
Mrs: Murray noticed the anxiety in
Kate's voice. "At least we are sure,"
she said, gently, "that he will -do
right, and after all that is success."
• "I know that right -well,' 'replied
Kate; "but it is hard for him out there
with no one to help him or to encoure
age him.."
Again, Mrs. Murray leaked at Kate
•curiously. .

went on, "especially for one like Ran.-

go. He will do a thing as it ought

this Kate gave her mind to her horses,

"What a delightful drive we have

as Kate toelc her upstairs to her room.
"I hope I have not worried you with

a little laugh.
"No, dear," said Mrs. Murray,

and said: "There is no fear, Kate;

Immediately after dinner Kate car-

KIDNEYS 0 BAD
WOULD FAINT AWAY
THAT WAY, FOR TWO YEARS.
Those who have never been troubled
with kidney trouble do -not know. the
suffering- and misery which those
'afflicted undergo.
• The dull pains, sharp pains, and quick
twinges', all point to the fact that the
Isidneys require attention. .
Doan's Kidney Pills are a specific for
all kidney, troubles.
Mrs. •Albert Williams, Edam Sask.,
writes:—"I have the greatest pleasure
in telling you, what Doan's Kidney Pills
did for me. Ten years ago I ,wEeelso
bad with my kidneys that I would faint
away, and could not stand to do anything.
I had been that way for two years, and
bad done all I could, but did not get any
better, until one day some one pit
little beak in our door, and I saw how
another' young girl had suffered like I
was thence() I thought I would try them,
aed I aria glad to say that after taking
four boxeg I have never had the same
thing again. Thanks to "Doan's."

whistling' about as if everything was
lovely. We had some perk and beans
for supper, then went to sleep in a

sh nty. It Was as hard; as a board,
but I tell you it felt pretty good.
N rt day I went wandering round
Th t night, when the Bose and me and
yo was afraid to get very far away
fro 'emu for I'd be sure.to get lost;
th bush is that thick that you can't
see your own' length ahead of you.
That night when the boss and me and
the', foreman was in the shanty they
call, the office, after supper, we heard
a most Awful row. "What's that;"
says the Boss. '0, that's nothin'e says
the foteman;"the boys is havin' a little
fun i I guess.' • He didn't eay anything
but -went on talking, jbut in a little
while the row got worse, and we_ heard
pouedin' and smashin'. `,Do you al-
lowl that sort of thing?' says the Boss.
'Well," he Says, 'Guess the boys got
some whiskey last nig.ht. II generally
let 'em. alone.' says the Boss,
quiet -like, 'I think you'd better go in
and sto-p' it;' • 'Not if I knew myself,'
says the forernan, `lI ain't Ordered my
funerel yet."Weli, we'lli go in and

you was kind of scared, hilt I thought
I might as well go- along. When we
go into the sleeping shanty there was

he began to swear imost aviful. They
did pay much attention, but
kept on knockin.' around and swearint.
'Come now,' says the forrnan, kind
o' caaxin' like, this ain't no way to
act. fpet down and behave yourselves.'
But etill they didn't pay no attention.
There the Boss walked up to the big-
gest One, and when he got 4uite, close
to 'em they all got still lookin' on.
'I'll take that hand -spike,' says, the
Boss.. 'Help yourselfei says the man

before you could count three that fell-
er was his knees bleedin' like a pig
and the haild-spike was out of the
door, and the Boss walks tip to the
other fellow and says; 'Put that hand-
spike outside.' He begun to swear.
'Kit it out,' says the Bose, quiet -like,
and the feliet .backs up and throws
his hand -spike out. Arid tile Bogs up
and speaks and says 'Look here, men,
I don't want to interfere with nobody,
and won't while he behaves himself,
but there ain't goin' be! any row
like that in this camp. Say, you

the eang used to in the night 'school,
and then ,he turned and walked out

ain't used to that sort of thing in this
camp. I heard the men talkin! next

to do, but I don't think they'll, do much.
They don' look that kind. • Anywey,
if there's goin! to be a fight, I'd feel
safer with the Boss /than with the

Kate, "tells of what happened the

up. ye baste,' says an Irishman, 'or
it's mesilf will kick yeout of the
camp.' And out the feller comes. It
was the same duck that the 'Boss
scared out of the door the first night.
'Stand metill len Billie,' says the
rlrishman; 'we'll see fair play. Sthand
up to the gintleman,' Billie,' says
the Boss, and his eyes were blazin'
like candles; 'yer goin' to leave this
camp to -morrow- morin'. You can
take'your, choice; will you get on your?
knees now or later?' With that Billie
whipped out a knife and rushes at

gives it a twist, and the knife fell onto.
the floor. The Boas holds hini like a
-baby, and picks up the knife and
• throws it into the fire. • 'Now' says he
'get onto your knees. Quick!' And the
feller drops on his knees and hellered
life a calf.
• 'Let's pray,' says some one, and
the crowd howls. 'Give us yer hand,
Boss,' says the Irishman. 'Yee the

shoves out his clipper, and the Boss

I drive the team too every chance I

tioss—"
"Well that's all," said Kate, "but
isn't it terrible? Aren't they dread-
ful."
"Poor fellows," saids Mrs. Munay,
"it's a very hard life for them."
"But isn't it awful, auntie, they
might kill him," said Kate.
"Yes, dear," said Mrs. Murray; in
a soothing voice, "but it sounds worse
to us perhaps than it is." -
• Mrs. Murray had not lived eie\n: the
Indian Lands for nothing. °
, "Oh, if anything should happen to
him," said Kate with eudden agitation.
"We must just truAt him to the great
Keeper," said Mrs. Murray, quietly,
"in Whose keeping all are safe wheth-
er there or here."
Then going to her valise, she took
out a letter and handed it to Kae,
saying: "That's his last to me. You
can. look at it,' Kate."
Kate- took the letter and put it
in her desk. "I' think, perhaps, we
had better go down now," she said;
"I expect Colonel Thorp has come.
I think youwilllike him. He seems
a little rough, but he is a gentleman,
a.nd has a true heart," and they wept
downstairs.
• It is the mark of a gentleman to
know his kind. He has an instinct
for what is fine and offers ready hom-
age to what is worthy. Any one ob-
serving Colonel Thorp's manner of
receiving Mrs. Murray 'Would have
known him at once for a gentleman',
for when that little lady came into
the drawing -room, dressed in her de-
cent silk gown, with soft white lace
at her throat, bearing herself with
sweet dignity, and stepping with
dainty grace on her toes, after the
manner of the fine ladies of the old
school. and not after the flat-footed
heel -first modern style, the colonel
abandoned his usual careless manner
and rose and stood rigidly at atten-
tion.
"Auntie, this is inY friend, Colonel
Thorp," said Kate.
"Proud to know you madam," said
the colonel, -with his finest military
bow.
. "And I am_ glad to meet Colonel
Thorp; I have heard so much of him
through my friends," and she smiled
at hem with, such genuine kindliness
that the gallant colonel losthis heart
at once.
• "Your friends have been doing me
proud," he said, bowing to her and
then to Kate.
"Oh, you needn't look at me," said
• Kate; "you don't imagine I have been
saying nice things about you? She
has ether friends that think much of
you."
"Yes," said Mrs, Murray, "Ranald
has often spoken of you, Colonel
• Thorp, and of your kindness," said
Mrs. Murray.
• The colonel looked doubtful. "Well
I don't know that he thinks much of

met. I have had to he pretty hard on
him."
• "WWI" asked Mrs. Murray.'
"Well, I reckon ykni know him pret-
ty well," began, the colonel.

is not for sale and I want to say that
• I feel safe about the company's mon-
ey out before, as I was setting on it;
but he needs watching," added the •
colonel, "he needs watching."
"What do you mean?" said Mrs.
Murray, whose pale face had flushed
With pleasure and _pride at the colon-
el's praise of •Ranald.
"To much philanthropy," said the
colonel bluntly; "The British -American.
Coal and Lumber Company ain't a
benevolent society exactly." .
"I am glad you spoke of that, Col-
onel Thorp; I want to ask you about
some ethings that I don't understand.
I know that the company are criticis-
ing sorne of Ranald's methods, but
don't' !mow why exactly."
"Now, Colonel)" cried Kate, "stand
to Your gents-"
• "Valli"' said the colonel, "Lam go-.
ing to execute a masterly retreat, as
they used to, say when a fellow ran
away. lam going to get behind inlY
companY.They clitim. you see, that
Ranald ain't al 'meting concern." '
"But how.?" said Mrs. Murray.
.Then the colonel enumerated the
features of Ranald's • management
most severely criticised by the cOm-
'pony. He paid the biggest wages
goingeethe cost of supplies •for the
camps was -greater, and -the company's
• stores did not show as large profits
at formerly; "and of course," said the
camel, "the first aim of: any company
is to pay dividends, and the manager
that can't do that has to go."
Then Mrs. Murray proceeded to deal
with the coseemay's contentions, going
with swift intuition to the heaetof
the matter. "You were speaking of
honor a moment ago, Colonel, There
is euch a thing in business?".
"Certainly, that is why I put that
young man where he is."
"That means that the company ex-
pect him to deal fairly by them."
"That's about it."
"And being a. 'man of honor, I sup-
pose -he will also deal fairly by the men
and by himself."
