CHAPTER x.
on the summit Of the eIuft.


Securely screened from observation
by the low growing bushes clinging
to the edge of the bluff, and yet with
clear view Of the cleft in the rocks
half way to the river, D'Artigny found
me seat on hummock of grass, but
remained standing himself. The sun
was sinking low, warning us that our
time was short, for with the first
coming of twilight I would certainly
be sought, if 1 failed to return to the
lower camp.
You would question me, monsieur"
asked doubtfuly. "It was for that
you led me here?'
YES" instantly aroused by my
voice, but with eyes still scanning
the trail. "And there is no time to
waste, If l am to do my part intelll-
gently. You must return below before
the sun disappears, or Monsieur Cas-
sion might suspect you had lost your
way. You have sought me for assist
ance, counsel perhaps, but this state
of affairs has SO taken me by surprise
that l do not think clearly. You have
plan?"
Scarcely that, monsieur. I would
ascertain the truth, and my only
means OF doing SO is through a con-
fession by Francois Cassion. q AFRO

himself admired and envied by all,
especially my sex. He has even dared

| tioning of my honesty, and swift in
dignation brought the answering
words to my lips.
"And why not prayl Must 1 not
defend myself-and what other wea-
pons are at hand? Do owe him kind
ness; or tender consideration? The
man married me as he would buy a
slave"
You may be Justified he admitted
regretfully. "Yet how is this to be
done?"
l arose to my feet and stood before
him, my face uplifted, and, with one
hand, thrust aside the shade of my
hat. r.
Monsieur, deem you that impossi-
ble?"
His lips parted in a quick smile, re-
vealing the white teeth, and he bowed
low, fiinging his hat to the ground and
standing bareheaded.

is to be congratulated. Yet 1t was
my thought you said yonder that you
despised the man."
II do; what reason have I to feel
otherwise? Yet there lies my strength
in this battle. He laughs at women,
plays with them, breaks their hearts.
1t Is his pride and boast, and his sue
cess in the past has ministered to his
self-conceit. He thought me of the
same kind, but has already had his
| lesson. Do you not know what that
means to a man like him? More than
ever he will desire my favor. A week
back he cared nothing; was but a
plaything, awaiting his pleasure; his
wife to be treated as he pleased. He

And I told him swiftly the story of

he asked.
I gave a gesture of despair.

his sluggish brain has grasped the
truth. To him the alliance was an
honor, an opening to possible wealth
in the fur trade through Cassion's in

burden"
But you explained to him"
II tried to, but only to regret the
effort. Giant as he is physically, his
intellect is that of big boy. All he
can conceive of is revenge-a desire to
crush with his hands. He hates Cas-
sion, because the man has robbed him
| of the use of my fathers money; but
| for my position he cares nothing To
his mind the wrong has all been done
to him, and I fear he will brood over
it until he seeks revenge. II he does

D'Artigny stood silent, evidently in
thought, endeavoring to grasp the
threads of my tale.

Racing vs.. Touring Car.

There are a great many things
about a racing car that are not de-
sirable for touring car The engine
must have an extra amount OF oil on
account of the high speed and the in
tense heat produced by running the
engine for long time at high speed.
The smoke is produced by the burning
of the oil that works up past the pis-
ton rings or ring, many racing motors
using only one ring, as high compress
sion is not desirable on a racing car.

Money Of Various Kinds.

We need money as something Of
standard value to facilitate the ex-
change of commodities in the trading
that is inseparable with human life.
Trading in one form or another goes
on constantly in the course of main
tanning our existence. We are con-
tinually exchanging what we have for
what we need or want, and money is a
standard by which relative values are
established. Skins or animals were
long used by savage tribes as money.
A mans fortune was reckoned by the
number Of skins he owned. When
animals became doEiesticated, the
whole animal replaced the skin as the
unit of value. Among domestic ami
mails oxen and sheep were the earli-
est forms of money. An OK was con-
sidered worth ten sheep. Cattle are
