moment she flushed, feeling the
warmth of a high purpose.
She would save him. He was worth
saving, from his crown of yellow hair
to the high heels of his Mexican boots,
Strong, clean, gentle, and-she hest

He had tied the fish into a bundle
with aspen leaves and damp moss
around them, and now they went back
down the stream. In the flush of her
new role as missionary she allowed
herself to feel a secret motherly ten
derness for his immortal soul, letting
him help her by hand or arm over
places where she knew she could have
gone much better alone
Back at the house they were met
by the little bent man, who had tossed
upon his bed all day in the fires of his
hell. He looked searchingly at them
to be sure that Follett had kept his
secret. Then, relieved by the frank

seeing them side by side with those
little half-felt, timidly implied, or un.
consciously expressed condolences of
boy and girl; sensing the memory of
his own lost youths aroma, his youth
that had slipped off unrecked in the
haze of his dreams of glory. For this
he felt very tenderly toward them,
wishing that they were brother and
sister and his own.
That evening, while they sat out of
doors, she said, very resolutely:
I'm going to teach Mr. Follett some
truth tomorrow from the Book of
Mormon. He says he has never been
baptized in any church"
Follett looked interested and cor.

the enthusiasm sic had expected, and
seemed even little embarrassed.

MRS. JOSEPH LALoNDE, or ST.
LAZARE, BURNED HERSELF TO
DEATH

MONTREAL, Que, September d.
Believing that Christ had ordered her
TO die like Joan OF Arc, Mrs. Joseph
Lalonde, forty-six years Of age, re.
siding at st. Lazare, a few miles from
Vaudreuil, went up on 10 q nearby bill,
built a funeral pyre and burned her
self 10 death.
Mrs. Lalonde spent several hours
gathering fence rails and logs on her
own farm preparing for her immo'
latlon; after she had the huge pile Of
wood ready she sat down and wrote
several letters IN which she state
that she had decided TO respond TO
the call OF God.
She placed the letters in her hat
and hung II on the limb Of a tree
near the scene Of the tragedy. She
had taken the DrecautiOn 10 bring
plenty Of matches with Der She re.
moved all her clothing and hung II
also on the tree limbs which shadow
ed the fatal bonfire.
This tragic affair took place Just
when high mass was being said IN
the village church and the discovery
was not made until after the congrc
cation had been dismissed. During
the services, however, the flames from
the fire reflected through the Windows
Of the little church but II was moi
thought TO be anything more thar
rubbish burning.
After the service an investigation
was made and the charred remains Of
Mrs. LalOnde was found lying a few
yards from the burning tlmbers. She
was apparently unable 20 stand tho
fhghtful ordeal and had Jumped Oui

She was found lying face down

neighbOrs that she contemplated guci
