 There was, however, no response. The instant I spoke the movement ceased.
 It seemed evident that tragedy had occurred, and that the victim at my feet was a woman. But who?
 Of a sudden, while l stood hesitat- ing. blaming myself for being without matches, I heard the movement re- peated. Someone was quickly reced- ing-escaping from the spot. l sprang through the gap, straining my eyes into the gloom, and as I did so could just distinguish a dark figure recedlng quickly beneath the wall of the wood, In an instant dashed after it. Down the steep hill to the Scarwater l foi- lowed the fugitive, crossing the olo footbridge near Penpont, and then up wild winding glen towards the Cairnmore of Dough. For couple or miles or more l was close behind, un- til. at a turn in the dark wooded glen where it branched in two directions, l lost all trace of the person who flew from me. Whoever it was they had very cleverly gone into hiding in the undergrowth of one or other of the two glens-which, could not decide.
 I stood out of breath, the perspira- tion pouring from me, undecided how to act.
 Was it Leithcourt himself whom had surprised?
 That idea somehow became i'm pressed upon me, and l suddenly re solved to go boldly across to Rannoch l and ascertain for myself. Therefore with the excuse that l was belated on my walk home, l turned back down the glen, and half an hour afterward entered the great well-lighted hall o1 the castle where the guests, ready dressed. were assembling prior to din ner.
 I was welcomed warmly, and just then Leithcourt himself joined his guests, ready dressed in his dinner jacket, having just descended from hi: room.
 "Hulloa, Gregg" he exclaimed heart fly, holding out his hand. Had lont day of it, evidently. Good sport witt Carmichael-eh?

j It's devotees SO enthu siastic
that it spreads everywhere. The au-
tomobile owner, back from a vigorous
and joyous afternoon at his golf
course, dilates so loudly and enthusi-
astically on the benefits of good
health that his less fortunate friends
who are unable to own an automobile
or to belong to a golf club, do the
next best thing by getting out into
the open for long walks and other
forms of inexpensive exercise.
Thus the automobile exerts a direct
and an indirect influence for better
health. Physicians predict that cer-
tain forms of disease which formerly
were prevalent among persons of
sedentary occupations will disappear
before a great many years.
And nobody will rejoice more than
the physician. Members of this mob
lest of professions, to their credit,
be it said, wish for nothing more than
that the human race might break the
last shackle of disease. They strive
constantly, in classroom, clinic and
laboratory, for means to accomplish
this noble purpose.
They welcome any agency which
takes the world a step forward in that
direction, and in the automobile they
see and recognize an ally in the great
work to which they consecrate their
lives

fresh air and exercise. Directly and
indirectly the automobile is proving
a factor of ever-increasing Importance
in lettering and making more efficient
from a health standpoint, the lives Of
the untold thousands who use this
greatest of all additions to improved
machinery.
The first great health benefit con-
ferred upon mankind by the automo-
bile is derived from the fact that users
of this vehicle get more fresh air.
There is a vast difference between
merely breathing fresh air while
standing still, and breathing it while
riding in an automobile. The action
of the automobile forces a vastly
larger quantity of air into the lungs,
and this air forced in under pressure,
as it were, penetrates to lung cells
that are not reached by the air in or
binary breathing.
One of the noticeable changes OBJ
served by physicians since the auto
mobile came into general use has been
in the decreasing amount of liver
trouble among automobile users. In
any automobile, no matter how resi-
lent the springs, there is a certain
amount of vibration due to bad roads.
They may mean temporary discomfort
but that discomfort is more than off,
set by the good this jolting does the
liver of the automobile user. In walk
ing, generally considered a fine ex-
e~rcise, there is very little direct bene-
fit to the liver. The great advantage
of horseback riding is that such exer-
else stirs up the liver and the other
vital organs.
This advantage accrues to the au-
tomobile user to an equally large ex-
tent. True, the jolting isn't so vio-
lent, but the automobile goes farther
than the horse, so that the aggregate
benefit is the same.
Adjacent TO all cities n~owadaysj
even the smaller ones, are golf cours-

lied. Business men who got practic-
ally no exercise ten years ago now
play golf nearly every day. There is
no doubt that the coming of the au-
tomobile increased the popularity of
this great out-of-door game. Golf was
introduced in this country long before
automobiles came into general use,
but the great popularity of the game
was not attained until a modern and
quick method of transportation was
developed. There are thousands of
business men who play golf nowadays
who would quickly lose interest in the

schools, from the primary grades to
the great universities, athletic sports
are becoming more and more prom
inent. A few years ago this form of
recreation was confined almost en-
tirely to the schools and to profess
sional organizations, but now, thanks
to the automobile, all classes of men
and women are getting out into the
open.
Week end runs into the country, a
form of recreation and health build
ing almost unheard of a few years
ago, are becoming increasingly COM
mon. Everybody who owns an auto
mobile seldom allows a Sunday to
pass without taking his own family
and in most cases all or part of his
neighbours family into the country.
That this is a tremendous factor
working for improvements in the gen.
eral health no sensible person will de-
ny. Health, like disease, is contagious.

WHAT THE AUTO
HAS ACCOMPLISHED

HAS ACCOMPLISHED
"The automobile adds ten years to
the life of every man who Uses it
consistently. This does not necessar-
lily e that he will live ten years
longer than he ordinarily would, but
that he lives ten years better. In 9TH
er words, the ten years are added
to the middle of his life rather than
to the end Of it. That period which
we designate as his "prime" is extend
ed through his use of the automobile.
To business men, especially, and those
of sedentary occupations, the automo-
bile has proven a boon the value of
which is beyond estimation. The bene-
fit to these men has been both direct
and indirect. Fortunately, too, nearly
every man who owns an automobile
shares it's use, and therefore its bene-
fits, with some of his less fortunate
fellows. AS a preventive of disease
I know of nothing better than the

considerably faster than automobiles
are sold.
1t does mean that the general STAN

automobiles is steadily rising. It

DAIRY
FACTS
LOW TEMPERATURE is BEST
Snurn should Not Contain More Than
TWO Thirds Of Its Capacity to
Insure Good Butter.

when ready to churn care should be
taken not to put too much cream in
the churn. The churn should not con-
tain more than two-thirds of it's capac-
lty. Much weak and short-bodied but
ter is caused by overlooking the churn
and churning at the wrong tempera-
ture. Salvy. mottled and streaked
butter is often due to an uneven tenn
perature of the wash water used dur
Ing the working process. A good bod
1ed>butter is usually inspired by low
temperature, but high temperature is
almost sure to cause q weak bodied
product.
Sometimes butter is difficult to
gather" especially when a combined
churn is being used. The grain of the
butter seems to be worn out by the
mass of partly gathered butter pound
ing and pouring over the inside por-
tons Of the churn and by the worker,
and when the butter is finally worked
it is brittle and weak bodied.
Do not have the temperature of the
wash vary very much from that of the
butter, but if the butter comes at so
high a temperature as to make it soft,
the wash water must be cold enough
to harden the butter, so that it will
bear working without overworking or
destroying the grain of the butter and
giving it salvy appearance.

per cent fat her production of milk
must be 5000 pounds. If the milk is
four per cent it is equivalent to 5000
pounds and if three per cent to 5000

If the COW is dry six weeks out Of
the year her daily average of butter
fat will be about three-fourths of a

If the herd can be made to average
this amount daily it is an excellent
record to maintain. There are herds
that will average more than this, but
they are few and far between.
