advance toward the house alone. All!

eyed boy Of three years before. The
wilderness had made of him a man
a soldier. He paused an instant to
gaze about, and held his hat in his
hand, the sun touching his tanned

colored hair.
"Mademoiselle," he said gently,
pardon me, but is not this the home
of Hugo Chevet, the fur trader?"
l looked up into his face and bowed
as he swept the earth with his hat,

There will be four boats"
"You go by the Ottawa, and the

II Is highly desirable TO obtain sup

other than the shallow wells, some Of
them open, that are found near many
houses. The water obtained from deep
wells has percolated through sands and
other material for so great distance
that its Impurities have been removed
by filtration, and 1t possesses a sani-
tary value that cannot well be oyeres-
timated, for such water is free from
the bacteria causing typhoid fever and

for shallow wells that may serve as

PeGograd, via London.-The first
story in detailof the capture of Erzcr.
um by the Russians reached Petrogral
scmi-officially. II shows complete co.
operation of Russian troops over a
wide area, which made useless resist

Of Erzerum was inevitable and with.
drew most Of their forces before the
final onslaught, leaving the garrisons
Of the widely separated forts to their
fate.
The Russians are pressing the ad.
vantage gained at Erzerum. On the
right along the Black Sea coast, by
the cooperation Of the sea and land
forces, they are driving the Turks
from one position after another to the
east Of Trebizond, and active opera
tions against that important seaport
are expected soon.
