thu house, and l strolled here to cool
down before turning in. How did you
know me?' queried Graves.
Lord bless You, sir, I am a Bucks
man myself. and a stanch supporter Of
yours. But don't zee, sir, come here
again like this. 1t amt safe, for we call
it one Of the most risky beats in Lon
don. We get down here men as are des-
perate for want of food and shelter. l
believe half the bodies they fish out Of
the river come from along here"
There was such a feeling in the mans
tone that Graves was touched and felt in
his pocket for some money.
Suddenly so yards up he saw a figure
outlined against the sky, and then dis
appear with a loud shrek and q splash.
An awful cry of "Help!.' echoed
through the still night air.
GOOD God, sir, a woman's gone in,
and l can't swim a stroke" groaned the
policeman. What shall we do?"
Doe said Graves. "I'll go in my
self. Get on the pier below here, fol
the tide will bring US down, and you
may be able to lend a hand"
While he spoke he tore off his boots,
slipped off his coat and trousers and
stood for an instant on the balustrade
looking for the suicide.
Help, help"' she shrieked, coming
n more to the surface. With a NUT
tered prayer Graves dived into the wa
ter. Coming up, he shook the water
from his head and eyes and with a long
graceful side stroke made for the sink
ing woman.
All his faculties were keenly awake
He felt that power, life and reputation
itself were nothing to the delight o:
saving some despairing creature from
terrible death. The policeman cheeret
him on with hearty shouts, and h.
spurted just in time to clutch the WON
an by the hair. To his horror he saw
that it was his cast off wife.
"Let me sink!' she gasped.
"Never - he said between his teeth
"You said I was responsible for you

your hands on my hips, and I'll do all

The ~ did as she was told, an

in those few minutes than ever she ha

WENT LOOKING FOR LADuKE
An Incident in Potsdam When the log
Drivers Had Reen Paid on.

An Incident In Potsdam When the Log
Drivers Had Been Paid on.
When the freshets swell the Adiron-
dack rivers they carry northward mill
lions of feet of lumber in the shape of
thirteen-foot logs. freshly cut and
clothed in bark at the outset, splinter
ed and stripped for the most part when
they reach the sorting boom of some
mill town in the St. Lawrence Valley.
Often for miles one can scarcely see the
surface of the river, nothing but
stretch of restless, fidgeting nudging
logs. That is the big drive" and the
men who wait on the caprices of these
logs from the mountain slope to mill
pond are the river drivers"
Some fifty of these river drivers were
paid off in Potsdam village on a Satur-
day night. Within two hours the
whole gang were drunk and happy,
with that comprehensive happiness
that comes to an Irishman in the first
stages of intoxication.
Then it was that Jerome Petrie, a
ratlike little Canadian shoemaker, con-
trived to trip big Mike Donovan as he
swung, trifle unsteadily, around a
corner. Mike hung on to the next man
and the whole line went down. A howl
of rage burst from the crowd behind.
In flash the merry stage of intoxica-
ton had given away to the furious and
| Jerome was running for his life. He
made for his own home, and the torrent
of raging, red-shirted lumbermen pour
ed into the narrow, dingy streets of
the Canadian quarter. Then one
yelled:
Lets clean out the whole Canuck
nest"
With a yell the gang surged forward
against the nearest shanty. There
was shattering of windowpanes, and
the crazy door, hastily barricaded with
household furniture, was giving at the
hinges, when Antoine Laduke came
around the corner He was Canadian
blacksmith, only five feet four in his
stockings, but with muscles that stood
out like twisted cables on arm and
thigh and shoulder. As he caught the
meaning of the tumult he stopped, lift
ed from the neglected sidewalk huge,
fiat slab of red sandstone and broke
into a trot. He went through that
bowling mass like cyclone through
the woods. When he had moved one
swath he turned to repeat the pro-
cess, but there was no need.
Next day Potsdam was full of shaggy
men in red shirts with their heads tied
up, looking for Antoine Laduke, in
sincere desire to treat" him as long as
he would be treated or the remnant of
their pay held out.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach the
diseased portion Of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-
tlOnal remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining OF the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the infammatio ion can
be taken out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL ndition, hearing will be destroyed. for
ever: nine cases out OF ten are caused by
lcatarrh which is nothing hut on iinf1ameds con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
