Il don't know. He set off the, dyna-
mite, and that ended his job. Why?"
Nothing" said LATE. still glancing
about him.
Hilary looked at him curiously, but
said no more. He began to push his
way through the crowd In the direc-
ton of the office. He had not invited
LATE to accompany him, but LATE was
at his elbow when he went in, followed
him inside the ROOM and took a chair
beside him.
Hilary looked at him with a whim-
steal smile. "We're finished, LATE.
This affair, coming on top of the can
ceiling of those jobbers' leases. has
ended me-"
Late scratched his chin. but said
nothing to this.
You see," said Hilary, according to
my reckoning we shall have about for
ty thousand dollars on hand about
September first. That will last us till
Christmas. On the first of the year
we shah be up against it. We need
another sixty thousand to carry us
through the winter, till navigation
opens and we call sell our cutting. No
banks going to lend us anything with
our record"
eve can ship six thousand cords by
December first" said LATE.
''Thirty-fve thousand dollars-per-
haps less
"We could get more out of those
river bottoms" suggested LATE.
"And shut down in the middle of
March,"
"As far as I can see" LATE burted
out, you'll be about ten thousand shy,
Mr.. Askew, assuming things go fairly
well. That's why / came here. You
see, it's like this. I've got nearly eight
thousand in the First National bank
at Shoeburyport, Mass Clarice-Mrs.
Cornell, that is-wouldn't let me buy
her a house on the installment plan
as l wanted to. She said as I'd never
know when we'd need the money, and
if / couldn't pay up on time they'd get
it away from us somehow, no matter
what the contract said. 1t seemeL
mighty unreasonable to me, Mr. AS
kew, but I'm glad now-I sure am
glad"
"Lafe," said Hilary. "are you crazy
enough to suppose I'm going to take
the money that you and Mrs. Connell
have been saving up for a home. and
put it into this bankrupt concern?"
"Oh, shucks!" said Late. why
that amt nothing. l guess / know
good thing when 1 see one. Tn loan
ing it to yOu Mr.. Askew, at-any rate
you want to pay me-"
"Lafe, you're fool" said Hilary,
trying to keep his voice steady: I'm
tempted. But I'm not going to take
it,"
''Then / guess I'll take the next boat
homer shouted LATE. 81 amt going
to work for a busted concern what's
going to leave me stranded up here in
midwinter, not drawing a cent. and
Clarice-my wife-and the kids in
Shoeburyport. No, sir! You take
that or I'll leave. 1t amt so crazy
as you think. It'll give me an interest
in getting the last ounce out Of the
men-and l guess Clarice will ap-
prove. And when the concerns on it's
own legs, you-why, you can raise my
wages"
"Connell, you're a trump" said Hill
airy. "Pll take 1t. Yes, I'll take it, be-
cause l know now -nat. am going to
succeed. We can't fail. LATE. when
we're as much in earnest as we are.
Good Lord. what respondent fool
I've been!''

sabys Lonu Nails Are Weapons.

The people of Greece abide strongly
by the old traditions and customs Of
their forefathers and in living up to
these customs many of the modern
ideas of sanitation and hygiene are
delayed in their progress. The vital
point in the baby's life Is the matter
of protecting him from the spirits Of
evil which are supposed to hover over
his cradle and follow him through the
day. The poor baby has TO endure
many strange ceremonies before his
parents feel at all assured of his fu-
ture- The finger nail myth is much
respected. The belief is that if q ba-
by's nails are never cut and are per
mitted TO grow long and ragged he will,
when he waves his arms about, scratch
the face of the demon of theft.
and the demon, disliking it, viii fly

uttered sharp exclamation and
pointed toward him. At once the two
found themselves under the fire of all
eyes.
The news reached Simeon Duval as
he was reaching up for bottle in his
closet, and he came putting out and
waddled toward Hilary, his pale-blue
eyes fixed -On him in malevOlent
scrutiny.
"Eh, Meestair Askew, you have a
drink on me?" asked Simeon, holding
out the bottle under Hilary's nose.
The action was at once a challenge
and an overture, to be interpreted in
either fashion, according to the hear
er's inclination.
Hilary shook his head 81 don't
drink, Simeon" he answered CURLY.
You want to dance. then, Ell? You
want lady to dancer"
81 do not"
Nor to play card, eh?"
"Not tonight. Simeon"
"Then what the h you come to
my place for?"
Simeon'S blue eyes glared into Hill
ary's. In his younger days the man
had been the bully of the lumber
camps; still of great strength, he could
have matched himself against any
man, with the doubtful exception of
Black Pierre; but Hilary's exploit upon
the latter had restraining effect upon
him.
I've come to have look at you.
Simeon" said Hilary geniaIly.
"Well, you see me now. Ell, Meestair
Askew? What you think of me. ehr'
retorted the dance-hall proprietor.
Maybe you like to look some more.
eh?"
Il think you're Just about what ex-
pected," Hilary answered. II hear

The lumbermen had begun to edge

was not angrfly hostile. The men were
eager to see how Hilary would bear
himself against Simeon. and they
hoped for some fun. Hilary saw among
them the face of Simeon's brother
Louis. who looked like small model
upon a lighter scale.
My brother here. He speak for
himself. Meestair Askew. He not
afraid. You think. p'r,aps. because
you thrash Black Pierre you boss I'M

Hillary. IF I were. Simeon. / should

and If Louis opens a. liquor den there,
I'll break his head open and run him
in afterward."
Few of those present understood his
exact meaning. but an ominous growl
showed that this declaration was ap-
preciated at more or less its correct
value. The mob began moving for
ward. For a few moments the situa-
ton looked menacing. Hilary took the
aggressive, as usual.

October Mists.

These autumn mists are the mists of
June grown older. This mellow at
mosphere, these days of old-gOld
studies of tree and shore, of soft, vel
low, shimmering mists, of half-lights
among the woods, where the leaves
drop thickest, and. of occasional clear
gray skies, are the rareripes of the
whole year. They stay witt us until
the Indian summer has come and gone.

of the clouds, to whiten all the fields.
where In the blossoming summer time
they had many cnrvet and romp with
the winds, and many a caress from

leash of winter, and in single night
touch the trees, the wayside bushes,
the rocks and fences. not forgetting
even the ragged pine-stumps In the
pasture, with a marvellous fretwork Of

morning sunshine and every crest and

LIGHT RAYS CARRY SPEECH
Operation That Seems Simple Ex-
planned by Scientist at Meeting
in London Recently.

Speech has now been clearly trans
mitted at least mile and a half on a
beam of light. The light telephone
depends upon the change in the cleo
trio resistance of a selenium cell. and
acts through reflection to this cell OF
an intermittent beam of light from a
mica diaphragm vibrated by the voice,
the vibrations varying the resistance
and reproducing the sounds IN tele-
phone in the circuit with the cell.
With his photophone or radiophone of
40 years ago, Dr. A. Graham Bell sent
spoken words TO the selenium receiver
few hundred feet away by light ray
broken up by rotating perforated
disc. In the apparatus lately described
by A. G. Rankine to the Physical So
ciety of London. the vibrations of the
diaphragm beneath the operators
mouthpiece are reproduced in small
concave mirror. which receives sun
light or arc light concentrated by a
lens and split up by grid with one
tenth inch space between the bars,
and the reflected light Is passed to an
other mirror fitted with'a second grid.
then TO the selenium cell at the re-
ceiving station. When at rest. the
bands of light of one grid eXactly fit
between the bars of the other the
maximum illumination being passed.
AS a person speaks into the mouth
niece. the bands of light play across
the grid bars and spaces. magnifying
the effect of the selenium cell.
