hey we're going to fall off, so we tried
another doctor for four months, the
baby never getting any better. His
hand and legs had big sores on them
and the poor little fellow suffered so
terribly that he could not sleep. After
he had suffered six months We tried
a set of the Cuticura Remedies and
the first treatment let him sleep and
rest well; in one week the sores were
gone and in two months he had a clear

The duke of Westminster has also

missionary to George Dupuy, after his
return to Paris, in which he says:
And now would you believe that I

Christmas afternoon, Leemore's terri.

1T passed like a hurricane across
the frozen river, smashing, dashing,
crashing immense blocks of broken ice
into the air behind it. All it's long
bristles were covered with hoar-frost
and its red eyes famed in the twi-
light
THE monster held in its mouth
cariboo that weighed at least 700
pounds, while it careered along at 20
miles per hour! At the corner of the
cutoff it disappeared.
I'm company with Chief Stineshane
and two Of his sons, took prints of its
tracks, exactly as you Butler, Lee
moore and | did that last day in the
moose leak
The positive good faith of George
Dupuy is beyond doubt in Paris, where
he is so well known. His place as
writer and sporting explorer is quite
fixed. When the New York-to-Paris
automobile race was being organized
his mere word convinced Parisans of
the impossibility of crossing Bering
strait upon the ice-which doesn't ex-
ist. Three times in the last eight
years Dupuy has made long visits to
the Klondilie, always as a sport with
money, and it was during this trip
that he saw the Keratosaurus. and
it IS the result of these facts that is
leading up to the duke of Westmins-
ter's american Vacation"

KNIGHT OF OLD WHO FOUGHT
DRAGON FINDS COUNTERPART.
Duke of Westminster to Hunt Ante
diIuVian Monster-Sad TO Have
Been Seen Alive in the
Arctic Circle.

The young duke of Westminster, OF
ample fortune and venturesome dis
position, in the spirit of his fellow
countryman of old, Sir George, is pre-
pairing to give battle to a monster
creature which is reported on reliable
authority to have been seen roaming
In the inaccessible regions of the arc
tic circle. He is coming TO America
soon to prepare to trail this antedi
luvian creature to its lair, there to
attack it and either capture it alive
or kill it and bring back it's carcass
as proof of his prowess and courage
On his way to America the duke
stopped in Paris, and there laid plans
for the expedition up to the McQues-
ten river in the Yukon in search of
this monster, which scientists have
named the Keratosaurus, and which
certain parties, including a Jesuit ia
ther located in the far north, are said
to have seen and photographed, be-
sides taking measurements of it's foot,
prints.
There seems to be much mystery
and many rumors concerning the mon.
ster, but report has it that miner of
the Yukon, Tom Leemore, who with
George Dupuy and James Butler and
the Jesuit father, saw the Kerato,
saurus in Its rage and photographed
it in its rampage when it flicked an
avalanche of great rocks down around
their heads.

Mary sat with shining eyes in the
front row of wooden chairs. 1t was
no wonder she had laughed and been
so gay all the dreary yesterday and
all the worse to-day. Louise shot her
a look of pure gladness.
Smalls face was ludicrous in it's
drop-jawed astonishment The little
lawyers face was a study. A look of
defiance had crept into the defend
ants countenance.
The preliminary questions were
asked and answered.
MIR. Williston, you may state where
you were and what you saw on the
14th day of July last"
Williston, the unfortunate gentle
man and scholar, the vanquished cow
man. for brief while the most i'm

was about to uncover to mems under
standing the dark secret hitherto OBJ
scured by cloud of supposition and
hearsay. He told the story of his
visit to the island, and he told it well.
Ii was enough. Gordon asked no furth-
er questions regarding that event.
"And now, Mr.. Williston, you may
tell what happened to you on the
night of the Both of last August?"
Williston began to tell tho story of
the night attack upon the Lazy S,
when the galvanic Small jumped to
his feet. The little lawyer touched
him with light hand.
Ia,
object to that as incompetent, irrele-
want and immaterial, and not binding

d Your honor" interrupted Gordon,
with great calmness, I'VE intend to
show you before we get through that
it is binding upon the defendant"
Was the defendant there?"
THE defendant was there"
The objection was overruled.
So Willston told briefly but to the
point the story of the night attack
upon his his home, of the defence by
himself and daughter, and of the
burning of his house and sheds. Then
he proceeded:
suddenly, some one caught me
from behind, my arms were pinioned
to my sides, something was clapped
over my mouth. | was flung over
horse and strapped to the saddle all
in less time that it takes to tell it,
and was borne away in company with
the man who had overpowered me-"
He paused a moment in his recital
Faces strained with expectancy de-
voured him-his every look and word
and action. Mary was very pale, car

of that night in August. and shud-
dered, remembering that ghastly gal
