rather unsteady voice-and told me
what she'd thus far held back-the
end of the prophecy, not yet fulfilled
and that she nightly anticipated: the
ultimate revelation and ordination
one of the masters was to wing an
invisible flight through the air, straight
from Tibet to the room where we sat,
and to place upon her bosom the mys-
tic seal-seven bloOd-red stains, in
symbol Of seven b1eedings of the con-
trite heart purging itself Of its seven
deadly sins.
And this, in the last word, is what
the diamonds meant TO her-the fulfill
ment of the most passionately cher

CHAPTER xIV.-Continued.

She told meas she had on the
steamer-hOw she'd gone abroad to
hunt new psychics for her seances and
the circle meeting at her house, of
which she was a sort of priestess, and
how she had thus come in contact with
the Duval girl. This girl had "won-
derful gift of prophecy" and at pri-
yate sitting with her had gone into a
trance-and had given out that Mrs.
Delario was zone of the chosen"-one
of the disciples-elect of the Mystic
Cult Of the Crystal Sphere, whose
headquarters were a lamasary in
Tibet, and had then predicted that she
was shortly to receive the mystic
sign of initiation" and q gift-con-
veyed through space by spirit influ-
ences-of seven blood-red gems, which
she was at liberty to dispose of and
convert into cash if she desired-the
sacred masters not dealing in lucre but
only its sublimated equivalents-and
apply to her personal needs and the
furtherance of her work for spiritual
ism.
On being pressed by Mrs. Delario to
tell mOre-name the time and place
Of the gift-the girl had declared that
the stones would be in a small oblong
box which Mrs. Delario would "dis-
cover among her things when the time
came" and that she would receive
them secretly-withOut NOR
tai knowledge of how they got there
and they would probably be given to
her In Paris. Beyond this the girl was
unable to go.
But Mrs. Delario accepted the pre-
diction and, greatly elated and excited
watched for the hour that was to mark
her initiation into earthly wealth and
occult glory. The hour did not come
in Paris, and she returned to America
a trifle disappointed but still expec'
tant.
She unpacked. She found slipper
Where could be its mate? Absent
mindedly she thrust her hand into il

"And you see the prophecy was full
filed" she told me. 81 had been cho
sen-as the Duval girl said. Every
thing came out precisely as she pre-
dtcted-the diamonds really came tc

were worth enough to make me finan

was correct"
It was a frank, straightforward
story, told with a heat Of conviction
that I think prevented her reading the
establishment that must have kept
growing in my face all the time.
1t was amazing every way looked
at it; the thing that struck me most
was how her memory had slipped one
little cog and allowed her belief to
roll smoothly off and land her-in
Tibet! She thought the box had been
sent to her in Paris, but she hao

FIND WEALTH IN WINTER
Canadian Farmers Turn Winter
Months to Good Account.

Large crops and good prices for the
wheat. oats, barley and flax from Ca
madam farms have made the winter
resorts in California at times resemble
a meeting of Canadian farmers in
stitute, but the practice among sue
cessful farmers of spending their win
tiers holidaying seems to be on the
wane. After all, nothing can be more
tiresome than having nothing to do,
and the farmers of Western Canada
are now finding winter employment
right on their farms which rivals the
attractions of the sunny South.
Live stock is the explanation, &C
cording to a six-foot WeSterner who
dropped into the Canadian Government
Information Bureau at 81 Jackson
street, st. Paul. He was on his way
back to Western Canada with car
load of selected breeding stock which
had carried off blue ribbons at several
state fairs in 1919. ave have found"
said he, "that there is just as much
pleasure and a great deal more profit
in developing herd of prize stock as
in listening to the murmur of the SAD
sea waves. Where we used to grow
grain exclusively now we are raising
stock as well. The fact that steers
raised in Western Canada took the
grand championship at the Interna-
tlonal Live Stock Show at Chicago two
years in succession shows how well we
are getting along. And instead of de
pleting our bank rolls we add a tidy
sum to them"
"But don't you find the life monoto-
nous?"
"Not in the least. You see, we have
a rural club which meets in our
school house, where we thrash out all
kinds of problems. Here we exchange
ideas and also have occasional talks
from government experts, and the man
who goes abroad for the winter only
realizes how much he has missed when
at summer picnic he hears an adj
dress by a neighbor that would do
credit to a college graduate.
SIT was at one of these m5etingS
that we decided to import prize
winning stallion, and today our dis
trict is raising some of the best draft
breeding stock which I am now ship
ping to my farm is indirectly the re-
suit of our club meetings. We are
going to make that little corner Of
Saskatchewan one of the big stock
centers of America. Why shouldn't
we? Everything is in our favor-cli-
| mate. fertility. cheap land, free graz
ing land adjoining lots Of farms,
| creameries government supervision.
You know how energetic the northern
climate makes a man? Well, it's just
like that with stock. They get to be
great, husky fellows hardy and big
framed-and that counts on market
| day.
"Come up and see me some time"
were his parting words as he left to
| catch his train. "Tll show you some
of the finest land and live stock out OF
doors, and treat you to real farm
meal-everything but the coffee and
sugar grown right on my farm. That
counts some in these days Of high
prices. "-Advertisement.
