HOW TO GET LOANS
New Rules Will Enable Land OFFICE
To Keep a More Systemized
Record

rules as will not only protect the
state i'm every way, but also make VI
possible for a systematic record to b'
kept of them, NJ Jenness, the regis
ter of the state land board, has re-
Gently formulated set of rules which
will be rigidly adhered to hereafter III
making loans, the set already having
been approved and adopted by the
land board. The rules are as follows:
1. Send to register of state land
board for blank application.
g. Carefully fill i'm the application
centify to it before notary public
and return to register.
3. The register will submit it to
the land borad and notify you as
soon as action lis taken thereon. II
you do not hear from him as soon as
you expected you will know your ap
plication has not been acted upon by
the board.
4. AS soon as the loan lis authoriz-
ed the state land commissioner will
appraise the land and make his re-
port to the register
5. When the applicant has been
notified that his application has been
passed upon favorably, he should
have an abstract of title prepared.
6. The abstract must show clear
title. The state accepts first mort.
gage only.
Z. Final certificates or other evil
dences of ownership, except warran-
ty deed or United States patent, do
not constitute such title as will be
required by the state.
8. See that abstract is brought
down to date and shows good title
before sending in. Much delay is
caused by sending imperfect or incom-
plete abstracts.
8. The state makes loans for from
ONE to five years with interest at 6
per cent, payable semi-annually. In
terest payments are payable January
l nd July l of each year.
TO- When the loan is made near
an interest payment date, the first
coupon may be made payable at the
next succeeding date. For example.
when a loan is made in December,
the first interest coupon should be
made payable July 1, with interest
computed to that date. This will
make the last interest payment pay
able when the note lis due.
IL. The state loans up to one-third
OF the appraised valuation of the land,
exclusive of improvements.
IL. The state will not send money
to be held i'm escrow by a bank or
other agent of the borrower. Papers
must all be complete in the registers
office before money will be sent.
IL. The applicant must pay the
expenses of the appraiser except rail-
road fare.
IA. Blank note and mortgage deed
will be furnished by the register
free, upon application.
10. If the applicant desires a bank
or other agent to act for him and re-
ceive the money he must send an or
der to that effect with his abstract.
It, 1t lis not necessary to hire or
pay agents commission to look af-
ter loans pending before the land
board.

CHAPTER XXI.
In tho Pilot House.

Cayley had been right in assuming,
as he did in his conversation with
Jeanne, upon the subject, that Roscoe
and the other people Of the Walrus
had never noticed the ice chimney, nor
suspected the existence of the pilot
house upon the cliff.head. Also, he
had followed correctly tho track OF
Roscoes mind in the deduction that
the two latest castaways upon this
land-that is, Philip and Jeanne
must have persisted in the great storm
which began on the night when he
fred the hut. and continued for so
many weeks that he. like thom, lost
all trace Of reckoning.
During tho storm he had lived in
the cave. much as Philip and Jeanne
had lived in the pilot house on the
cliff: he had, that Is to say. in some
purely automatic fashion, kept on ex-
listing The mere momentum Of a ma
turo mans vitality makes 1t hard for
him to die. But when the storm
abated and milder weather came, he
bestirred himself. as Cayley did, and
6ct hUOuL OISSAuS u LuAAoA VI uA6 own
through the great drift which had
blocked the entrance to his cave.
The next time the moon came up,
after he had completed the tunnel
from the cave, he set out down the
beach toward the ruins Of the hut.
1t was not mere curiosity which
attracted him, nor any lurking fear,
but simply the hope Of making some
salvage from the wrockage of the hut,
or possibly, from the bodies of his two
victims, in case he was lucky enough
to find them. He had no doubt at all
that they were dead.
His pleasure over tho quantity and
condition Of the stores he found in
the ice cave compensated for his
disappointment over not finding the
bodies Of his two latest victims.
Evidently they had not even at.
tempted to use such shelter as the ice
chamber afforded, for 1t showed no
mark of human habitation ANAL They
had probably wandered outside and
died in one Of the nearby drifts. Per-

tation had not tho light been put out
before he had fairly got his eyes ad-
justed to tho distance.
1t Is to be remembered, always. that
he knew nothing whatever OF the ice
chimney. and suspected no connection
between the hut and the pilot house,
except by the air. For anything he
knew to the contrary, Jeanne might
be able to ny, as we'll as Philip, or
he to carry her with him upon his
flights. Consequently, he did not sus-
pect, when he saw Cayley take to
flight again, that this action had any
reference to himself; nor that the
woman who was left alone would be
on her guard against him.
The moment he glimpsed the
shadow Of Cayley's wings against the
stars he began making his way, eau
tiously. over the crusted snow, toward
the pilot house. The door was closed,
but there was a light shining out
through crack beneath 1t. It was a
glass door, but something had been
hung over the glass so that he could
not see into tho interior.
Both Jeanne and Philip had made
the mistake of assuming that the only
way Of access to the pilot house, ex-
oept to Philip with his wings, was the

But the odor which now invaded his
fastidious nostrils automatically
checked his flight. He Tilted back his
planes and his momentum sent him
towering almost vertically aloft. He
did not analyze it-not that first in
slant, but his sensation was the same
one that makes . dog suddenly throw
up Its head and snarl, bristling.
1t moment he knew that 1t was
smoke, the smoke of no clean, spar.
king wood fire. but Of smouldering
bones and tho flesh Of some animal.
Slowly he began to descend in the
sweeping circles Of great spiral, con-
stantly searching with an eagerness.
which amounted almost to an agony,
for the point Of angry red which would
tell him where his enemy was to be
found. He had no doubt at all that
bis enemy was there. The man who
had laid that fire was likely to be
sleeping beside it.
He was within 20 fest of the level
Of the ice before his little mirror of
concave silver caught the CLEAN Of
red that he was looking for.
He threw his head back sharply and
gazed at 1t. He could not see the fire
itself-that must be hidden behind tho
great rock which almost blocked the
entrance to what must be the cave.
The CLEAN he had caught In his
mirror had been reflected in turn
from the cleaning surface Of q mass
Of Ice q little farther out.
He slanted away again, searching
now for level place to alight, found
1t within 100 yards of the cave-mouth,

cave to get some more supplies. We've
nothing much left up here"
She dropped down on a heap Of
bear-skins before the open door. and
sat gazing out at the black velvety
patch of sky which capped the snow
tunnel. Even when she heard Cayley
coming back up the ice chimney she
did not Immediately turn to look at
him. 1t was, in way, sort of luz
ury not to; to think that II she waited
she would presently hear his step
come nearer and feel his hands upon
her shoulders.

A Sortk.

But that did not happen, and q
sudden instinct that something must
have gone wrong reached her, with al
most the force of q spoken word.
What is It? What's happened.
Philip" she asked, as she turned.
He did not answer at once. He was
bending over the hole formed by the
top Of the ice chimney and rather de-
liberately replacing the wooden cover
upon it. When he did straighten up

knew her instinct had not Lied to hes.

Cave.
make sure that he could not be sur
prised in the act of getting clear Of
his wings, and q moment later came
down soundlessly, except with faint
Blither of his planes, upon the ice.
He bounded almost instantly to his
feet, slipped his knife out of his belt
and held the heft of 1t between his
teeth while he furled his planes. That
done, he deposited the bundle in the
angle Of q projecting rock, and stealth
lily made his way toward the cave
mouth.
At the very edge Of the shelter at.
forded by the rock he paused for an
instant: then, with every nerve tuned
to the highest pitch-with every mus
ole in state Of supple relaxation, yet
instantly ready for any demand that
might be made upon the stepped
round the corner and into the mouth
Of the cave.
Probably no apparition of the mon
ster he expected to find there--no
sight Of him towering expectant,
armed. anticipating all that Cayley
hoped to do, and ready to Illustrate it.,
could have been so terrifying to Philip
AZ the thing he actually saw, which
was-nothing. At least, 80 far as a
first glance into the cave would re-
veal, his enemy was not there.
Cayley shuddered, not with fear.
and yet with sensation stronger
than disgust. 1t was as II leopard
had been standing over the deserted
lair OF hyena. A wild beasts lair
1t was and not human habitation.
The floor was Uttered with feathers
and half-gnawed bo1res. The rocky
walls dripped with oil SCOT OF his hor-
rible cooking. The foul air of the
place was actually iridescent. But
the real horror of 1t lay in the fact
that Roscoe was not there.
Cayley's reasoning faculties attack
ed that blind, irrational horror with
oil their force. From the condition Of
the fire it was evident that Roscoe
had been gone several hours. It was
almost certain that he would return
soon. Cayley's arrival In his absence
really gave him an immense advant-
age A man always comes unwarily
into the place he calls home. If Ros-
coe came back now he would have no
chance at all against Cayley's quick
spring and the flash Of the long knife
blade.
Certainly 1t was reasonable to e.
pect that Roscoe would wait for an
other moonrise before setting out on
any serious sort Of expedition, and, IL
that assumption were correct, he
might be returning to the cave at any
moment.
He strobe abruptly back to the cave.
mouth. Az he did so, however, his
eye alighted on something that made
him pause-something so strangely
out of keeping with its surroundings
that 1t caused him-or he thought that
was the reason-a sense of recogni-
ton, almost of familiarity.
The thing which so evidently did
not belong to Roscoe that 1t seemed
almost to belong to Philip himself.
was a gold locket. 1t lay on fiat bit
Of rock, which seemed to serve Ros-
GOES purpose as table. The objects

piece Of raw walrus hide, an over

In an instant he turned and dived on

He headed up into the wind, and

poured along parallel to the cliff.

checked his speed little and

more than two or three hundred feet
