90 From the morning Of March ~,
when Lakeley had expounded the politl-
ca! programme In the Offices Of the st.
Georges Gazette. to the afternoon Of
April he found himself a central fg-
ure In the whirlpool Of activity that
formed itself In Conservative circles.
With the acumen for which he was
noted, Lakeley had touched the keystone
of the situation on that morning and
succeeding events. each fraught with
its own Importance. had established the
precision Of his forecast.
Minutely watchful Of Russia's atti-
tude, Fraide quietly organized his
forces and strengthened his position
with a statesmanlike grasp Of opportu-
nifty, and to Loler the attributes dis
played by his leader during those try
ing days formed an endless and alb
sorbing study. Setting the thought of
Chilcote aside. ignoring his own posi-
tion and the risks he daily ran, he had
fully yielded to the glamour Of the mo-
ment and In the first freedom Of a
loose rein he had given unreservedly
all that he possessed OF activity. capac-
ity and determination to the cause that
had claimed him.
Singularly privileged in a constant
personal contact with Fraide. he learn
ed many valuable lessons OF tact and
organization in those five vital days
during which the tactics Of whole
party hung upon one item of news from
q country thousands OF miles away.
For should Russia subdue the insur
gent HaZaras and. laden with the hon
ors Of the peacemaker. retire across
the frontier. then the political arena
would remain undisturbed: but should
the all important movement predicted
by Lake!cy become an accepted fact be-
fore parliament rose for the Easter re-
cess then the first blow In the fight
that would rage during the succeeding
Sc ssion must inevitably be struck. In
the meantime it was Fraide;s difficult
position to wait and watch and yet pre-
serve his dignity.
1t was early in the afternoon Of
March 20 that Loder. in response to a
long standing invitation, lunched quiet
zly with the Fraides. Being delayed by
some communications from Wark, he
was a few minutes late In keeping his
appointment, and on being shown into
the drawing room found the little group
OF three that was to make up the party
already assembled-Fraide, Lady Sa-
rah--and Eve. AS he entered the room
they ceased to speak, and all three
turned in his direction.
In the first moment he had vague
impression Of responding suitably to
Lady Sarah's cordial greeting. but he
knew that Immediately and uncon-
sciously his eyes turned to Eve, while

Loder sat very still. Overwhelming
possibilities had suddenly opened be-
fore him. In n moment the unreality
of the past months had become real; a
tangible Justification Of himself and
his imposture was suddenly made pos

he, too, leaned forward, and. resting

seconds he made no attempt to disturb
him, but at last his own irrepressible
activity made silence uncomfortable. He
caught up his pencil and tapped I'M

Ashes for Fuel.

Expert chemists are now making
a careful examination and ANALYSIS
of the discovery made by a Penn
sylvania cobbler whereby coal can
be made to perform several times
its usual function as Il fuel.
According to reputable authority,
here is the formula for this prepar-
alton which, if it will accomplish
what the inventor claims of it, will
work wonders as fuel: Common
salt, one pound; oXalic acid, two
ounces; water, one gallon. Mix, =,
and then moisten a mixture con-
tanning one part coal and three
.,a n.4----l~-., -; =. ----h-'----a n -.-'--.
tnfs VIII p,uuuce Il better fuel than
coal.
This mixture of ashes with coal
and other ingredients causes a
chemical combination which is said
to be wonderful, and if it can be
demonstrated that common ashes
can be put to the good use which
the cobbler-inventor sees in it, the
result will be felt almost instantly.
OF course, all manufacturers and 9th
ers who make power on a large scale
are interested in this new process
and they will follow the experiment
with closest attention. To be able
to utilize ashes to such an advan-
tage would mean one of the great
est discoveries of the times.
