than what he had faced in the stable.
But the idea never occurred to him.
He was fighting mad; he had come to
st. B0niface to fight, and he meant to
fight his quarrel out He turned.
He heard Leblanc and Pierre run
ming across the stable floor. All his
calculations, which were subconscious,
were made in fractional seconds that
night. So, now. he calculated that the
pair would reach the door q half-sec-
ond before the men in the shanty.
They would emerge confident. imagin-

stopped them in their attack, just as
Hilary had calculated it would; at the
same moment Leblanc's head and
shoulders became visible around the
door. Hilary, waiting for that, jabbed
upward viciously with his right. Le-
blanc howled and fell backward,
knocking Pierre off his balance in
turn: and before they had recovered
from the surprise Hilary had stepped
back into the stable and b0lted the
door behind him.
He saw their wonder and the dawn
ing fear in Leblanc's face, covered with
blood. and Pierre's infuriated scowl;
but they came on at him again, craft
lily now, crouching, their knives drawn
back for the stab. A revolver, even
when loaded, is of little use against a
knife, welded by an expert at close
quarters. The men were attacking
from opposite sides, too. They were
watching each movement that Hilary
made He estimated that they would
spring after very brief delay. He
hazarded second and, STOPPING, picked
up fragment of rotten harness which
had fallen to the floor beside one of
the horse-boXes. He wheeled toward
Leblanc, who twisted his body to
meet him; and then, as Pierre rushed
in from behind, wheeled again and
brought down the harness strap upon
his head.

wound, staggered, let the knife fall,
screamed, and fled, stumbling from
side to side, with hands upraiSed above
his head, toward the door. Louis had
had enough; he had been meant to be
the bait of the trap, and now he had
been caught in it. Blinded by the
blood that poured over his face, he
blundered into one of the window en-
braSureS, and his upraiSed hands
brought down the lamp. which fell
crashing upon the wooden floor, and
fortunately went out.
Still screaming, Louis found the
door and tried to push back the boIt.
But before he could do so Hilary was
on the spot. He pushed it back him-
self and, taking Louis by the shoul-
ders, he pushed him with all his
strength into Baptistes shanty.
The room was empty. The word
had evidently been passed about that it
would be advisable for one to make
oneself scarce in view of what was
going on in the stable. But a group
Of men were gathered about the door
at the entrance, peering in; and the
sudden apparition Of Louis, covered
with blood, and Hilary behind him,
proved too strong for their discretion.
They came running forward, yelling.
Hilary could have broken through
them and gained the safety of his
rooms, short distance away. Even
the hazard in such course was less

Proposed Research Work.

A proposed British national institu-
ton of industrial biology would have
for its prime object research connected
with industries dependent on micro-or-
ganisms or engines; and these, setting
aside brewing and distilling, include
the making Of cheese, bread and
pressed yeast, Tactic acid, wine and
vinegar, besides tanning, the treat
ment of sewage, and all agriculture.
Other aims would be to give special
lied instruction to teachers and tech
nical workers and to provide a col
lection of microscopic culture from
which scientific workers and others
could draw material.

GET IODINE FROM SEAWEED
Supply That is Practically Inexhaust'
ihle Assured to the WorId-How
Ii Is Produced.

The worlds supply of iodine is OBJ
tanned from the mother liquors of the
nitrate of icinas, which in the past,
was obtained from kelp, d seaweed, in
which 1t was first discovered and iso-
lated by the French chemist Courtois,
In 1911. Were the supply Of mother
liuuor to fail, mankind would still pos
sess virtually an inexhaustible supply
of iodine in seaweed. The vast sub
marine growths of fucus and laminaria
on the southern coasts of Chile alone
would suffice for centuries.
The kelp industry was of consider
able Importance in Glasgow at one
time. The abundant kelp of the west
coast of Ireland and the western is
lands of Scotland, which was thrown
IN on the beach by the sea was collect
ed by the peasants. 1t was dried and
burned in shallow pits, in which the
ashes accumulated and matted togeth-
err It contained, besides iodine, some
carbonate of soda and chloride Of
notassium. Iodine is now obtained as
by-product of sodium nitrate. In
the process by which sodium nitrate
is dissolved and separated from its
insoluble impurities. iodine gradually
accumulates in the mother liquor,
principally in the state of sodium
iodide and i0date. Later this liquor
is further concentrated by evaporation,
and at the proper time sodium bisul-
phite is added to precipitate the eyap-
oration.
