The mans hopes are dashed to
earth. His faith in everything good
and fine and true is almost shattered.
He determines to sever all the ties
that bind him TO a city OF hypocrisy.
With a sudden return OF energy, he
packs his bag and is soon headed for
the great open Northland to tramp
the trail that brings weariness--but
with it, happiness.
With his sleds and his huskies he
is deeply contented, until he comes

learns that Evelyn will arrive in the
village next day. Bill cannot forget

in Yellow Gulch and faces Evelyn.
The intervention of Jack Belmont,
sinister influence. is the cause Of
stirring complications in the story,
and makes Strstton wage long bat

Is that they are conscious OF wire
less messages. Experts who have

that plants receive and make a re-

that the response can be detected by
