er. The police regulations abound with
vexatious restrictions in the matter OF
fees or personal remuneration, and five
hundred pounds handed over as mere
private matter between gentlemen was
sum of money not to be thrust aside
with lofty indifference.
Bradshaw did not offer any further
opinions, SO Brading resumed the con-
versation.
There is another point" he said,
which requires good deal of explain
alton. This DR.. Lester, who headed the
scientific expedition sent to West Africa
by Lord Arncliffe, arrives here on a fish
ing excursion. By some extraordinary
coincidence he did not know that his
patron lived in the neighborhood. We
may note in passing that DIR. Lester is
very eminent authority on poisons. Now,
on the very day of Lord Arncliffe's death,
Dr. Lester and Miss Holt are admittedly
found together by young Warren. They
pretend to be strangers and tell some
cock-and-bul1 story about an otter and
trout"
Did you say you were Irish?" asked
Bradshaw lazily.
We'll, sir, you know what l mean.
Who is to say that Miss Holt and the
doctor were really strangers-that they
were not, as matter of fact, old lovers?
| have had my eyes open pretty wide, as
you may imagine, and if those two are
not sweet on each other, | will eat my
hat"
That may or may not be true" said
the American shortly. Somehow, the
suggestion that there was an understand
ing between Edith and George Lester
was not particularly pleasing to him.
Anyway, DR.. Lester is a sure-erough
white man, and everybody knows that
he has only just returned from the
Ashanti swamps. Go and place your
head under the pump in the yard, my
good Brading."
'All very WE'LL" returned Brading,
somewhat ruffled by the repeated as
pensions on his intellectual capacity.
" 1t is not impossible, nevertheless, that
the meeting down by the trout-stream
was not the first one. If it was, all |
can say is that they have got on with
remarkable rapidity. Young Warren
says"
little more attention to Mr.. Harry War
rent" Intercepted Bradshaw. There
is something very queer about that in
teresting person"
oh, nonsense, sir!" cried Brading
" He is the sort of man you will find by
the hundred in the rural districts of
England-not overburdened with brains,
and with little of the atmosphere of the
stable about him. But he is not of the
type which makes a cunning murderer"

The Rebate
Comes Back

Up-To-Date Farming, one OF
the best farm journals published
in this country, has the follow.
ing terse statement anent the
wheat rebate of Secretary Shaw;
The Dingley law placed a
tariff of rs Gems a bushel I'D
on Canadian wheat. When
the farmers were inclined to
complain at the high tariffs
that were put upon manu-
featured articles they were
completed to buy, they were
pointed to this rs cent wheat
tariff, and were assured that
it evened up the whole list.
Up to that time no wheat
had ever been imported into
the United States, and it is
doing no violence to say that
it was supposed none ever
would be. But 1904 saw a
time when importations

might be made, and this Is
cent tariff stood between
the United States 81. 20 and
the Canadian 95 cent wheat.
But the miliers, our farm
ers principal buyers, want
ed Canadian wheat, and if
they could get it without
paying the tariff, they could
force down the price Of our
wheat.
But, no, they must pay
the tariff. Old II. S. in
tends to enforce the law, SO
farmers were told. If the
nillers get the Canadian
wheat they Z must pay the
