would prove unequal to the task Of
cloaking his fears.
She sickened at the thought, and her
eyes grew hard. Was this the man in
whom she had believed? And when he
turned on his side and hid his face in
the pillow and groaned she had small

the lips. Her worst misgivings had

brother. her idol, he to whom she had
fondly looked to revive the glories of
the race. Truly she had been blind.
She had spoken to Luke Asgill the
night before. and he would help her,
have turned. as her thoughts did turn,
to Colonel John. But he lay PROSTATE,
and the O'Beirnes were out Of the
question:; she could not tell them.
Youth has no pity, makes no allowance,
expects the utmost. and a hundred
times they had heard James brag and
brawl. And Ulcle Ulick was away.
There remained only Luke Asgill.

Asgill? He may contrive something"
The man sweating on the bed leaped
at the hope. az he would have leaped
at any hope. Nor was he SO upset by

presence. But his nerves. shaken by his
overnight drink, could not command his
voice even for that. His eyes dropped
in shame; the muttered, "Wha the

whisper"

his eyes.

could have wept tears of shame. And
yet, so plain was the collapse Of the

Of reproach, even had she found heart

All her thought was, could she hide

chilled the girls marrow. Then, with

An lncorrigibIe Poet.
John Dryden noted three steps In the
careers of successful men:

CdICCAo va
What the child admired

And the man acquired"
DR.. Madison>C. Peters, in an article In
khe Chicago Tribune, tells, as an illustra-
tion Of this truth. that "a child,s Unborn
ATTITUDE is the evidence Of the right call
ing In life" the following story of the
boyhood of Isaac Watts:
The father of Isaac Watts was deter
mined that his boy should not become a
poet. and when he caught him making
rimes. after firing Of demonstrating with
him. he logged him. AS he applied the
whip, young Isaac cried:
80. father, do some pity take,
And another rime ! shall never make"
This provoking the father still more, he
applied the lash with more severity, and
young Watts again cried out:
80 father. do spare my back from pain,
And / shall never max a rime again."
The father, thoroughly discouraged in
his vain attempt to e the poetry out OF
the boy, sent him away to school with a
special request that the principal fog the
boy IL he caught him making rimes. The
first morning at the chapel exercise the
boy, Watts. booking up at the ceiling
during prayers, saw a rat coming down
the bell rope. He laughed SO loudly that
the teacher, stopping in las prayer, de-
manded why he laughed. The boy trem-
blingly answered:
h rat CAME down the rope to say his
prayers"
The teacher discovered the genius Of the
boy and encouraged his rhine making, and
his hymns to this day are sung the
world around.

PASSING OF THE TRAPPgR.

~ Ga (frOm St. LOUIS IOSt-DlSpdtCH.D
The forward march of civilization
has reached the wilds OF the Canadian
north and trappers report that their
business is rapidly becoming unprofit-
able or account OF the frequency OF the
settlements. That stae of affairs Is
TO Se expected and the wonder Is that
the situation has not become more
acute long ago. 1t Is remarkable that
the business has continued profitable.
History has repeated itself In this
as In all other things. The advance
guard OF civilization was years behind
q class of hardy trappers who earned
their livelihood I'm the solitude Of the
forests by taking animals for their
furs. AS civilization advanced the
number OF %trappers became larger n
the amount of game diminished until
there twas no longer a profit to be had
from the business.
1t began with Maine and Massachu-
sets and continued to the westward
until the United States was no longer
tenabie for the trapper. The Hudson
Bay company preserved the frozen
north OF Canada for half a century aft
err the United States had ceased to be
q profitable hunting ground. but the
onward march of the railroads and the
ever restless a of homeseekers has
at last advanced to the very %outposts
OF the Hudson Bay territory. Gold and
wheat have been the l~odestones and the
trapping business suffers.
Where will we get our furs In the
future? We will raise them. For
Farming, skunk farming, cat farming
and the hundred and n other kinds
OF animal raising will take the place
OF the trapper and his gun. Other fur
bearing animals will soon be taught to
eat out of the hand Of man just as the
domestic animals of the farm have
been doing for centuries. Man will
simply enlarge his control Of the lower
animels, enlarge his control over the
~fur-bearing as we'll as the food-bear-
ing animals.

CHAPTER XXII.-(Continued.)

The girl recoiled, outraged and angry,
But, knowing her brother was at hand,
and seeing In a flash what might hap
pen in the event Of a collision, she did
SO in silence. hoping to escape before
he came upon them. Unfortunately
Payton misread her silence n took
her movements for a show of feigned
modesty. With a movement as quick
as hers. he grasped her roughly,
dragged her toward him and kissed
her.
She screamed then in sheer rage
screamed with such passion that Pay
ton let her go and stepped back with
an oath. AS he did so he turned, and
the turn brought him face to face with
James McMurrough.
The young man, tipsy and smarting
with his wrongs, saw what was before
his eyes-his sister in Payton's arms
but he saw something more. He saw
the man who had thwarted him that
day, and whom he had not at the time
dared to beard! What he might have
done had he been sober matters not.
Drink and vindictiveness gave him
more than the courage he needed, and,
with a roar of anger, he dashed the
glass he was carrying-and its con-
tents-into Payton's face.
The E~nglishman dropped where he
was and James stood v him, swear
ing, while the grease guttered from
the tilted candle in his right hand
Flavia gasped, and, horror struck,
clutched James arm as he lifted the
candlestick and made as II he would
beat in the mans brains.
Fortunately a stronger hand than
hers interfered. Asgill dragged the
young man back. Haven't you done
enough?" he cried. Would you murder
him."
"Ah. didn't you see, curse you. he
II know, I know!" Asgill answered
hoarsely. But not now! Not now! Let
him risa il Re can! Let him rise, / say!
Payton!"
The moment James stood back the
fallen man staggered to his feet. and
though the blood was streaming down
his face from a cut on the cheekbone
he showed that he was less hurt than
startled. you'll give me satisfaction
for thus!" he muttered. You'll give
me satisfaction for this" he repeated
between his teeth.
"Ah, by heaven. I will" James Nc
Murrough answered furiously. land
