The Prefecture of Police itself could
only report that the worst offense against
Dubois was his breaking Jail ; it was for
this that be had been 80 reentlessly pur-
sued and 80 often arrested there was no
reason Why he should not be pardoned
He was, for the next weeks Gazette
des Tribunaux contained this announce
ment:
"We have the satisfaction of announ.
cling that this unfortunate prisoner has
been liberated and that Her Majesty the
Queen has presented him with a sum of
money sufficient to prevent him for the
rest of his days from again falling into
misery"
We never heard of Dubois after this,
and it is pleasant to think that at last he
found rest, peace and comfort. .

That is the story of Francois Dubois,
hero and galley-slave, as it is written 10
the police archives, the army records and

grave, for al offense which he never

Small wonder he gave up for while

Many farmers are holding their
wheat with the hope Of getting high
er prices than at present. This is
bad policy. For there is no assurance
that prices will improve, and even II
they should the increase would not
amount to much. This risk Of increas-
ing prices is attended with loss. Many
farmers are in debt and interest is
rapidly eating into their capital.
Their wheat Is continually losing in
weight, by shrinkage, etc. Rats and
mice destroy large quantities. and so
the farmer will find at the end 81
three months he will have lost 20 per
cent Of his grain. There is no posi-
bility that the market will show an
advance in price to equal this loss,
and thus it Is quite clear that the
farmer who Is holding his wheat for
an advance Is losing money in the
operation.
