the face Of the cliff, and finding no
great difficulty. At the top he looked
back, waved his hand, and then dis

at the sky, where the clouds were

SYNOPSIS.

Adele la Chesnayne. belle Of New
France, is forced into marriage with
Commissaire Cassion, henchman of
Governor La Barre, who is plotting to
oust La Sale and his garrison from the
frontier Fort st. Louis, on the Illinois
river. Adele had overheard the plotters
say she had inherited a great fortune
from her father and they had kept 1t
from her. La Barre and Cassion learned
of the girls knowledge-thus the mar
rage and the hurried departure of Cas-
sion and company for Fort st. Louis.
The bride refuses to share sleeping
quarters with her husband. She has
but one friend, young Rene D'Artigny,
D guide. He is chary of helping her.
Chevet, the girls uncle, one of the par
ty, is found murdered. A fierce storm
saEtters and wrecks the boats. Adele is

letting the other fellows do all the

YOU share the benefit with them?
The man who belongs to his local

town than is the man who doesn't
even give any money to help make
his town better place to live In and
to work In.
That requires no explanation. but
the man who IL really Of use to the
community is the fellow who gives

his brain power and some Of his initi-

big problems that Clarksburg will

the very fact that some Of your citi-

the purpose Of boosting Clarksburg

cidentai stage and has become an or

putting atoms Of this and molecules

to make these combinations OF ele-

failed because they could not put into
