5000 Boats Built by One Man.

Andy Linton of Vancouver, B. c.,
has built up to date 5000 boats, and
though he is referred to as the oldest
boat builder in Canada he will likely
add another thousand to his record
before he makes his final cruise. He
does not build ocean liners, but gold
prospectors' boats and fishing smacks.
He has built about one boat day for
the last twenty-five years. He has
little sawmill and few workmen, but
does himself large share of the work
of getting each craft ready for active
service.

/ done some time before, and saw the
folly of it ALL
She never had written to Greytown;
she was lost to all her former friends.
She was glad of that Some of them
had said things, anyway Very well.
III.
Years came between, while Grey
town saw the hope of canal fade away
forever. Then the consul at last
was removed and he came north. He
inquired everywhere, but it was all
useless. Yet he persisted calmly,
somehow determined and even con-
fident that he should win. He felt
that he must succeed he must make
things right
He walked the streets by night He
could scarcely sleep. 1t never oc-
Cured to him that they might have
left the city He felt sure that some
where in that vast camp of humanity
she was waiting.
Finally he found a clew. He hur-
ried to the Office of the daily. She
had been gone SO, long that few re-
membered her He obtained an old
address; and SO, step by step, in the
end he did succeed.
1t was twilight Rain had fallen all
day and the street lights blurred back
from the pavements. He approached
a three-storied residence in a section
once fashionable, long ago. At the
curb a carriage was waiting, and as
Leonard turned to enter he saw
large man with forid face peer
through the window at him.
He rang nervously. A woman in a
long Japanese kimono opened the
door soft light shone on great
masses of auburn hair.
Mrs. Leonardo" she repeated, star
ing at him and shaking her head.
Then an idea came to Leonard.

her maiden name almost in a whis-

"Oh," said the girl in the kimono,
Eyes. Come in. She's going out,
though, think. I'll call her"
Leonard sat down on a low divan
in the hallway. Presently soft rust
ling came through the shadows. The

With low cry she stepped back,

He tried to take her hand, but she
drew it away.

murmured.
1T is too late now" she whispered.
Cant you forgive me?" he begged.
The woman turned from him

slowly.

whisper.

Leonard, tenderly, as he put his arm

Australian Clay Eaters.

In the Northern Territory that vast
subtropical section of Australia which
is to be opened up for settlement now
that it has been taken over from
South Australia by the commonwealth
government, some of the natives have
a curious custom of eating a certain
kind of white, powdery clay.
Investigation does not indicate any
particular fondness on the part of the
aboriginals for this particulad diet, but
the clay would appear to serve use
full purpose in between whites by way
of STAYING off hunger when game is
scarce.

And the consul misunderstood.

AS the woman stood alone by the
rail. watching the low stretch of yell
low coast-line with its ragged fringe
of palms sink steadily into the waters
that were broadening between, she
felt first sad, then free. 1t was a
new sensation. The land behind
her, with it's intense skies, and
cool palm-groves and lagoons. had
meant languor, rest, unhappiness; the
spirit of the great city before her was
expressed by this infinite waste of
waters-freedom, liberty and-per-
haps-peace! The child in the cabin
only emphasized the hope.
For time Amy Leonard felt lost
in the swirl of the city. Then she
steadied herself for the effort She
secured a position on one Of the
dailies, where her duties were largely
routine and where small chance was
offered for originality. But she did
not care. She wanted only to live.
Her tiny apartments formed para
disc: but always there was an incom-
pleteness, like a cake without frost
ing. That was the only smile she
could find,
In the far past Amy Leonard had
lived for the joy of living; afterWard
she had lived for love; now she was
living always for the sweet little
child who made those tiny apartments
paradise There was no other center
about which life might revolve She
would have had no other.
Winter came The cold was biting
after so long summer in quiet, hot
Greytown. Winter went: and there
was no tiny face peering at the first
flowers in tho window-boxes
Night after night Amy Leonard
came home weary at heart and sat
alone hour by hour in that little fiat
where paradise had been. She would
sit before trunk. fondly handling the
tiny wardrobe Night after night and
week upon week-but such things are
never measured by nights and days
and weeks. For many heart-beats she
lived there alone, going each morning
to her work and coming home each
night weary at heart. Then at last

The separation occurred when they
had been married four years. The con-

Some democrat, In last weeks
issue Of the democratic paper down the
street, made an attack upon William
I. Taft in the following words
mir. Taft is a Unitarian. Webster
fines Unitarian as one who denies
he doctrine of the Trinity. The Trini-
ty consists OF God the father. the Son
and the Holy Ghost In other words,
he republican candidate for president
4 the United States denies the exist.

and that he died that we should not
perish but have everlasting life" MIR.
Voter, do YOU want to see man elect
d president Of the United States who
openly declares that Jesus Christ is not
the saviour Of men
This attack upon Mr.. Taft bears some
rather peculiar ear marks which show
up the writer of u, whoever he may be,
In anything but nm cnyiablc light.
It is not very often, in our most heat
d political campaigns. that politicians
resort to an attack upon the religious
views Of candidate to make campaign
capital for their party ticket Ms they
regard n mans religious fe as mat
ter too sacred to himself TO be ruthless
ly dragged before the public In politi'
cal campaign. II Is also n fact that.
when politicians do. 80 far forge, tho
rights Of their fellow mtn as to make
attack Of this KIM. ucy ARE generally
aetuatcd In doing 10 by bitter and un'
reasoning pnrtisanship or by the rcaliz'
alton Of the fact that they are fighting
far losing cause and have no deccn,
weapons with which to meet the oppo'
nition.
In addition TO the unusual character
of such an attack, this attack has other
fea,urra that will bear notice. II does
nu, require n theologian To discover the
decidedly unfair manner In which tho
article h written. The writer Of II
states that Mr.. Taft u n Unitarian and
then gives what he claims TO be Web
u,.r'a definition of n Unitarian an "on,

The democratic editors down the
street do not appreciate our joking ref
erence to the "steam roller" at their
county convention. Well, our inform
ants We're good democrats who were
present on the scene Of action and GER
tainly We're capable Of recognizing the
work of the steam roller when they see
and feel it. While our reference to
he steam roller was in the tone of a
campaign joke, these democrats who
were giving information on the meth
OILS of the convention. strange to say,
did not seem 10 be in joking mood.
They seemed more liberal however in

DOWN the street are in their writeup OF

they divided the honors Of engineer oi

er who stops to think for moment,
but the still further trouble with this
conclusion is the fact that the writer
o: that article did not state correctly
Webster's definition of Unitarian but
simply used enough of the definition 10

that Mr.. Taft denies the existence Of
God.
Wcbster's full definition Of Units-
rian is, "Onc who denies the doctrine
Of the Trinity, believing that God ex-
lists only in one person.
The writer Of that article evidently
did not give Webster's full definition
because, if he had done so, the very
definition would have made il impossi.
ole for him to leave the impression up
on the reader that Mr.. Taft denies the
existence of God.
A newspaper attack upon candi-

regard on the part Of the party making

most sacred but, when such an attack
is aggravated, as in this int ,nce. by
