INTERNATIONAL COAL
DEAL AWAKENING

A deal on for the balance of the
treasury stock of the International
Coal & Coke Co. at Is cents per
share started a demand for these
shares last evening and this morn
ing that caused the stock to
strengthen on the curb materially.
Insiders who are picking up the
stock, of course, were very quiet
on the exchange, but after the
board were very busy buying calls.
These sold as high as 2k cents
down on IS cents for thirty days.
Nearly all big blocks will be pool
ed, and the intention is to put the
stock up to $1.00 per share, which
can be easily done in view of the
fact that in all probability it is the
intention of the management to in
crease the dividends to a 10 per

CHAPTER XIV.
Before q CorSican Election.

Escorted by the mOuntaineers. two
stalwart young men carrying Made
mOiselle PaOli down the dizzy path,
they skirt the dread precipiCes of Del
Orc and passing the vinelands and the
clearings, come into the main road
leading from COrte. then descending
the hill are in the chestnut groves Ct
BocOgnano.
Then their leader turns to Marina
and says: "iave no fear, Signora:
your English sister shall be returned
to this gentleman. but" he laws his
hand On Barnes shOulder-"use not
the weapons l see at your belt. Thy
quarrel shall be my quarrel. No for

and pigs" chuckles Tomasso. Now
they'll have light enough to see l am

"CospettO. they are making a fete
for you. MOnaldi." laughs one of the
young men. for lanterns are dangling
from the o~verhanging boughs of the
main street of the little village: some
of the houses are illuminated. and
round the communal building and the
wine shops are gathered many men.
The little party tramp through the
lanternlighted streets. and coming to
the door of the municipal building. the
loungers who are smoking their pipes
make way for them. dofing their hats
and saying with great reverence: The
Be~llacoscia!"
Near the entrance are two illumi-
mated placards. one reading: Vote for
S~aliceti. who uphOlds old Corsica"
The other: Cast your ballots for Ber-
nardO. the man who kills."
Surrounded by the young men. To-
masso in the dim light is not noticed.
and Marina has drawn her mandile
close about her face.
The party enter the low hall of the
municipal. which is lighted by lamps
and decorated by myrtleS and cycla-
men flowers. 1t is well filled by a
crowd of farmers. peasants, wool
growers and shepherds. These are
now being fervidly addressed by young
Bernardo himself.
Catching sight of the commanding
figure of the great bandit. the adroit
politician bursts out ra%pturously: All.

presence and c~ountenance. You have
come to say to me. Bernardo. you are

On this Barnes has looked from a
distance. wisely rejecting that his bat
tie is being fought for him, but with
difficulty restraining his hands from
putting a pistol ball through Saliceti.
He now cries:
Then. for Gods sake, take me to
her quick"
This brings upon him the attention
of the crowd. Learning that it is he
who has relieved them of the terror of

HOW TO KNOW PURE PAINT.
A Way in Which Il May Be Identified
Before Using.

After q building has been painted
long enough for a weather test. it Is
easy to tell if the paint used was made
of pure White Lead or not. But such
related knowledge comes like locking
the barn after the colt is stolen.
What M wants is a test that will
tell the quality of the paint before 1t
and the labor Of putting it on are
paid for.
Nature has provided a way in which
genuine White Lead may be positive
~ distinguished from adulterated or
fake White Lead before you spend a
CEN on your painting.
Pure White Lead is made from me-
tallic lead, and. under intense heat,
such as is produced by a blow-pipe,
pure White Lead will resolveitself back
into metallic lead. II, however. it is
not genuine White Lead, or if it Oh
tains the slightest trace Of adultera-
ton, the change will not take place.
Therefore the "blow-pipe" test is an
absolute and final one.
The National Lead Company are
urging everyone interested in painting
to make this test of paint before using
it. and they guarantee that tine pure
White Lead sold under their Dutch
Boy Painter" trademark will always,
prove absolutely pure under the blow
pipe" or any other test. To make it
easy for you to perform the expert
ment they will send you free upon re-
quest a blow-pipe and everything nec-
essary for you to make the test, to-
gether with a valuable booklet or
paint. Address. National Lead Com

CLIMATE Is IDEAL
GREAT WEALTH ACQUIRED IN

Writing from Saskatoon. Saskatche-
was formerly a resident of Green
Mountain. Iowa, says: The climate
in summer is ideal for growing grain.
Long. clear days of sunshine. no bad
storms. We never need to guard

dent of the town. and it might be more
interesting to read what a farmer has
to say about Western Canada. From
hundreds of letters all filled with
words of praise, recounting success in
Western Canada there has been n
selected. 1t is as follows:
Paynton, Sask., Canada,
Dec. 10th, 1907.
To Whom This May Concern:
I moved { this address February ;.
1907, from Montgomery. Iowa. and
took a homestead b miles north of
Paynton. 1t was cold when I moved
here but ii did not stay cold long; it
broke up the 9Th of February. and was
not so cold after that but the spring
was late on account of the heavy snow

of that. Brother Yankee? ! think this
is a fine place both TO make money
and to live. There was an old nan up
here visiting his brotherin-law. Now
this man owns land close to Des
MOines, Iowa, and is in good circum-
stances. but he took a homestead and
says he will be cOntented if he can
only put in the res of his days in
Canada. He would get up in the morn
and look out OF the door and say:
