Palmer Howe, not with a suggestion to
renew the old relationship, but for
comradeship.
Christine sulked-he wanted good
cheer; Christine was intolerant-he
wanted tolerance; she disapproved of
him and showed her disapproval-he
wanted approval. He wanted life to
be comfortable and cheerful without
recriminations, q little work and much
play, q drink when one was thirsty.
Distorted though it was, and founded
on wrong basis, perhaps, deep in his
heart Palmer's only longing was for
happiness; but this happiness must be
of an active sort-not content, which
is passive, but enjoyment.
"Come on out" he said. 'I've got
car now. No taxi working its head OFF
for US. Just little run over the coun-
try roads, eh?"
1t was the afternoon of the day be-
fore Christine's night visit to Sidney.
The office had been closed, owing to a
death, and Palmer was in possession
Of holiday.

"Much you care about that. Go and
ride with your wife," said the girl, and
flung away from him.
The last few weeks had filed out her
thin figure, but she still bore traces of
her illness. Her short hair was curled
over her head. She looked curiously
boyish, almost sexless.
Because she saw him vince when
she mentioned Christine, her ill temper
increased. She showed her teeth.
"You get out of here" she said sud-

CANADA'S BONUS
TO FARM LABORERS
Offering 100 Acres to Farm
Hands.

Canada today, with the great de-
mand that is made upon it for food
stuffs, finds itself almost in the throes
Of labor famine. A novel means Of
solving the problem has been evolved
by the Canadian Government at Ottawa
on Wednesday last, when it was de-
cided to practically bonus every farm
hand going to Canada, by giving him
$50 acres free as homestead, and to
allow the time he would be working out
for, the good wages offered, to count as
residence duties on the homestead.
Western Canada has been a big pre-
Queer Of grain and it Is estimated that
there is shortage Of over thirty thou
sand men, necessary to produce an av-
erage crop in 1917. This shortage has
been caused by so many young men
having left the farms to go to war, and
it is essential to make an unprecedent-
ed offer of this kind, to fill their places
on the land at once.
1t has been required in the past to
do three years duties on homesteadS
to get title, but an additional induce
ment has been offered by practically
reducing this term to two years. AS
explained by an official of the Canadi-
an Government, Canada's need for
farm laborers is intense, and excep-
tional inducements are being offered
to get the needed farm workers at
once. A farmland will make his en-
try for one of the 16O-acre farms, sat
isfy the Government that he is work.
ing for a farmer and that time will ap-
ply as residence on the land filed for.
Just the same as If he was actually
living on acknowledgements.

CHAPTER XIII.

Young Howe had been firmly re-
solved to give up ali his bachelor hab-
it's with his wedding day. In his indo-
lent, rather selfish way, he was much
in love with his wife.
But with the inevitable misunder-
standings of the first months of mar
rage had come a desire to be appreci-
ated once again at his face value.
Grace had taken him, not for what he
was, but for what he seemed to be.
With Christine the veil was rent. She
knew him now-Gu his small indo-
lences, his affectations, his weaknesses.

world began. she woBla lsSrn to dis

PICK AMERICAN LEAGUE WINNER? IMPOSSIBLE
TOO MANY GOOD BALL CLUBS IN THE RACE!

and Jennings will be up there fight
ing next September.
The American league race this year
should be even closer than in 1916
There are several reasons for this.
In the first place it is not likely that
any club will be put out of running
by such series of accidents as those
suffered by New York last year; then
every club has improved more or less;
finally Connie Mack will have his
fingers in the evening-up process
there is no possibility of the Athle
tics losing as many games this year
as they did last.
All OF these elements will have their
effect on the 1917 race, which in ms
opinion will be even closer at the wire
than that of last year
