flue Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Taste
Found In Schnapps that Satisfies Tobacco Hummer

There are three ways used by far
mers for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and fue cured. The
old and cheap wayis called air cured;
the later discovery and improved way
is called f1ue cured. In h~ue-curing
the tobacco~is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
hues in houses especially built to re-
tain the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing,
process developes-i in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps tobacco, Just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections of this ripe.

famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in

The bright sun still smiled calm and
serene, the morning breeze still kissed
the blue water. the two deer still
watched him with curious eyes; but
he saw them not-only the winsome
face and appealing eyes of Chip as he
last beheld them.
And now in the prov of his canoe
lay her fortune, her heritage, which
was, after all, but scant return for all
the shame and sigma so far melted
out to her.
It was almost sunset ere Old Cy, his
nerves still quivering and wearied as
never before, crossed the little lake
and breathed a sigh of heartfelt graf
itude as he drew his canoe out on the
sandy shore near the ice house No
one was in sight, nor likely to be. A
thin column of smoke rising from the
cabin showed that the hermit was still
on earth, and now for the first time,
Old Cy sat down and considered his
plans for the near future.
First and foremost, not a soul, not
even his old trusted companion here,
not even Martin, or Angie, and GER
tainly not Ray, must learn what had
now come into his possession. Neither
must his journey to this far-off lake or
aught he had learned there be dis
closed
But how was he to escape from the
woods and these people, soon to ar
rive for their summer sojourn? And
what If Chip herself should come?
Two conclusions forced themselves
upon him now: first he must so con-
zeal the fortune that none of these
friends even could suspect It's pres.
ence; next, he must by some pretext
leave here as soon as Martin and his
party arrived, and cease not his
watchful care until Chips heritage
was safe IN some bank in her name.
And now, with so much of his flu.
ture moves decided upon. he hurried
to hasten supper, and, securing
shovel, returned to his canoe.
In Ave minutes the cans of gold
were buried deep in the sand, and
upon Old Cy's person the bills found
concealnent. How much it all
amounted to. he had not even guessed,
nor scarce thought. To secure 1t and
bear it safely away from this now al
most accursed lake had been his sole
thought and must be until locks and
bolts could guard 1t better. That
night Old Cy hardly slept moment
Two days after. just as the sun was
nearing the mountain top, Martin, An
gle, Levi and Ray entered the lake.
How grateful both Old Cy and AMI
were for their arrival, how eagerly
they grasped hands with them at the
landing, and how like two boys Mar
tin and Ray behaved needs no de
scription.

entered the cave. One moment more,
and then flaring torch of bark was
thrust into the inner. cave, a mere Gre
vase not four feet wide, and STOPPING.
as he now had to, Old Cy entered and
knelt while he looked about.
He saw nothing here of interest ex-
eept the serried rows of jutting slate,
across two of which lay slab of the
same-no vestige of aught human. and
Old Cy was about to retreat when his
flare burning close to his finger tips
unnoteed, caused him to drop it on
the instant, and drawing another from
his pocket he lit it while the flame
lasted in the first one.
1t is said that great discoveries are
almost invariably made by some tri-
hing accident--a gold mine found by
stumbling over a stone, a valley pro-
life of diamonds disclosed by digging
for water
In this case 1t was true, for as Old
Cy bent to light his second torch ere
he withdrew from the inner cave, a
Hash of reflected light came from be-
meath this slab-only for one second
but enough to attract his attention.
He stopped again and lifted the slab
Six large tin cans had been hidden by
it. Re grasped one and could scarce
lift It. Again his fingers closed over
it, He crawled backward to the bet
ter-lighted cave and drew the cover
off the can with eager motion, and
poured heap of shining glittering
coin out upon that food-littered table
Into that dark hole he diyed again,
as a starved dog leaps for food, seized
the cans, two at time, almost tum-
bled back. and empded them Four

stuffed with paper money,
Folded with these bills of all de-
nominations from one to fifty dollars

with a red seal still glowing like
spot of blood
1t was an innholder's license, au-
thorizing one Thomas Mcclure to fur
nish food, shelter, and entertainment
for man and beast.
With eyes almost tear-dimmed and
heart throbbing at having found poor
Chips splendid heritage, Old Cy now
gazed at It.
The sharp stones upon which he
knelt nearly pierced his flesh, but he
felt them not.
The CLINT of sunlight from the crack
above caressed his scapt gray hairs
and white fringing beard, forming al
most a halo, yet he knew it not
He only knew that here, before him.
on this rude stone table, lay thousands
of dollars, all belonging to the child
he loved.
Thank God, little GAL" he said at
last. I've found what belongs to We,
n we hain't got to want for nothin' no
more. I wish could kiss we now"
Little did ne realize that at this
very moment OF thankfulness for her
sake, poor Chip was lost to all who
knew her, and. half starved and al.
most hopeless, knew not where to
find shelter.

CHAPTER XIV,

When Old Cy emerged from the
cave, his face glorified and heart
throbbing with the blessings now his
to give Chip, he looked about with al
most fear. The two abandoned canoes
and the trusty rife had seemed an as
surance of tragic import, and yet no
proof Of this outlaws death. That
this cave had been his lair, could not
be doubted; and so momentous was
Cy to rescue this fortune, that he
trembled with sudden dread
But no sign of human presence met
his sweeping look.
The lake still rippled ana smiled IN
the sunlight Two deer, buck and
doe, were feeding on the rushgrown
shore just across, while at his feet
that rusty rifle still uttered its fatal
message.
Once more Old Cy glanced all about,
Here, in the dim light and with trem'
bling hands, he filled the cans once
more, and almost staggered, so faint
was he from excitement, he hurried
to the canoe, and packing them in its
bow. covered the precious cargo with
his blanket
Then he ran like deer back to the
cave, closed it with the slab, grasped
his rifle, and not even looking at the
srusty one, bounded down the path to
his canoe again, launched it, and
pushed of
Never before had It seemed so frail
a craft And now, as he swung its
Prov around toward the outlet, Curl
0us object met his eyes.
Far up the lake. and where no ripple
concealed it, lay what looked like
floating log, clasped by human arm.
What intuition led him hither, Old
Cy never could explain, for escape
from the lake was now his sole thought.
And yet, with one sweep of his paddle
he turned his canoe and sped across
the lake And now. as he neared this
object, it slowly outlined itself, and he
saw a grewsome sight-two bloated
eorpses grasping one another as if in
a death grapple. One had hair OF
bronze red, the other a hideously
SCARED face with lips drawn and teeth
exposed.
Hate, Horror and Death personifled.
Only for a moment did Old Cy
glance at this CHASTITY sight, and then
ne turned again and sped back across
the lake.
