The village Of Roquefort, France,
has only 900 inhabitants, but its indus
try is probably the oldest in the world.

widened and prepared, which grot-
tos are forever agitated by a
moist wind from the rock below.
Roquefort cheese was highly esteemed
in ancient Rome and has beea export
ed for centuries. At the end Of the
seventeenth century 100000 pounds
per year were made. In the year 1866,
100000 pounds were made and Sold

francs per year by supplying the
world with cheese.

Consumptives in Syria are treated
today much in the same way as the

years. tuberculosis is a comparative

of his second term he was elected
practically without opposition, Gov
%ernor of Tennessee, and was spoke,
of as anpresidential possibility. :
In 1929 he was married to beau-s
tiful and highly accomplished young
lady ,of Nashville. Three months lat
er, to the surprise and utter aston-.
tshInent Of everybody, he suddenly re-
signed the governoship, deserted his

the Cherokee Indians, the friends of
his -boyhood, who, had been removed,
to the Indian Territory. q
He remained among the Indians;
four years, was admitted to their coun-

tribes who were being defrauded by
the rascally agents of the government.
/. The same year he went to Texas on
a mission to the Commanche Indians
as representative Of President Jack

her struggle for independence from
Mexico. and Houston was induced to
remain in the country and give his un-

This time 1t was Marion who came
to him. Her eyes shone like stars.
| And II you make Neil go to the

thing"
The last word came in breathless
sob. AS She slipped into the path
that led to st. James she paused for
la moment and called back, in low
Syoice: Tell Nell that he must go for
.Winnsome's sake. Tell him that her
fate is shortly to be as cruel as mine
tell him that Winnsome loves him,
and that she will escape and come to
him on the mainland Tell him to go

F She turned again, and Nathaniel
stood like a statue, hardly breathing,
until the sound of her feet had died
away. Then he walked swiftly up the
foot path that led to Obadiah's. He
forgot his own danger in the excite
ment that pulsated with every fiber
of his being, forgot his old caution
and the fears that gave, birth to it
forgot everything in those moments
but Marion and his own great happi-
ness. Neil's absence meant nothing to
him now. He had held Marion in
his arms, he had told her of his love,
and though she had accepted it with
gentle unresponsiveness he was
thrilled by the memory OF that last
look in her eyes, which had spoken
faith. confidence. and perhaps even
more. What was that something she
would tell him IL he got Neil safely
away? 1t was, to be a reward for his
own loyalty-he knew that by the
half fearing tremble of her voice, the
sobbing catch of her breath, the
strange glow In her eyes. With her
brother away she would confide in
him? Would she tell him the secret
OF F'ner siavedom to Strang? Ma
thaniel was conscious of no madness
in the wild hope that filled him; moth.
ing seemed impossible to him now.
Marion would meet him at midnight,
She would go with him to the boat,
and then-ah, he had solved the prob
lem! He would use no force. He
would tell her that Neil was In his
canoe half q mile out from the shore
and that he had promised to leave
the island for good if she would go
out to bid him good-by... And once
there. half mile or a mile away. he
would tell her that he had lied to her;
and he would give her his heart to
trample upon to prove the love that
had made him do this thing, and then
he would row her to the mainland.
1t was the sight of Obadiah's cabin
that brought his caution back. He
came upon it SO suddenly that an ex-
clamatio OF surprise fell unguarded
from his lips, There was no light to
