The Alaskan went back TO his other
story. He was talking for Sheba

fascinated eyes which flashed with
sympathy as they devoured selected
glimpses OF his wild. turbulent career.
Her clean, brave spirit was throwing
"a glamour over the man. She saw
him with other eyes than ElliOts.
The Government official admired him
tremendously. Macdonald was an
emplre-builder.
Diane, satisfied that Macdonald had
scored. called upon Sheba.

you will"
Sheba accompanied herself. Tho
voice OF the girl had no unusual range,
but Il was slngularly sweet and full
OF the poignant feeling that expresses
tho haunting pathos of her race.
Gordon, as no listened, felt tho
strange hunger OF that homesick cry
steal through his blood. He saw his
own emotions reflected In the face OF
the Scotch Canadian. who was

HERE'S HOW TO MAKE 1T,

THE simplest method OF making
currant Jelly is perhaps the fol-
lowing: Free underripe currants
from leaves and large stems and put
them in the preserving kettle. Crush
a few with a wooden vegetable
masher or spoon and heat slowly,
stirring frequently.
When the currants are not, crush
them with a vegetable masher. Turn
the crushed fruit and juice into a
cheesecloth bag. and let 1t drain as
long as 1t drips. but do not use pres

the contents by raising one side OF
the cloth and then the other. When
dripping ceases. remove bowl and put
another under the. bag, Twist the

possible. This juice may be used "a

The boys mother hid II away in a
closet because she did not wish him

him TO wear. He was sitting by his
stoop when an old man came by with
basket.
The little boy asked the man what
he had in the basket. The man re-
piled. "a little st. Bernard dog. DO
you want to buy the puppy"
The little boy said, ~ haven't any
money but | have a chain that /
win give you"
so the man gave the boy the puppy
for his chain. The boys mother be-
came very angry.
one day the boy got lost in the
snow, when his dog came running
home barking. The mother said
something must be the matter, so
they followed the dog, and there they
found the boy lying in the snow.
Ever since the boys mother was glad
he had bought the St Bernard dog.
