OWE APPLE TREES TO FRANCE
Canadians Got Their First Shoots From Nobleman Who Was Associated
 With Champlain.

It was from France that apple trees were first brought to Canada. A French nobleman named f,e Monts was asso- ciated with Samuel de Champlain in Frances earliest Aolonizing projects in part of North America. Their first colony was planted sn the rocky island of St. Croix, now D.ucett's or Neutral island, at the mouth of the River St. Croix, which forms p4art of the present boundary between Nav Brunswick and the state of Maine. After spending there the winter of 1,O4-O5, the colon ists removed to Port Royal, now An napolis, Nova Scotia. The colonists were getting a foothpld when their charter was revoked oy the king of France in 1907, and the enterprise came to an end. Howsver, in the fol- lowing year Champlai4l founded Que bee. and shortly afterwards De Monts sent out to ChamplaiE some young ap- pie trees. They were planted and grew we'll. Such was the beginning Of ap- ple-growing in Canada. Twenty years later apple trees were. introduced into that part of ancient Acadia that now forms the province of Nova Scotia.

 MT. Morris turned purple, snorted. then snatched up the box and made his exit.
 Apparently he wished to convey the impression of a furious quarrel with less humiliating eEaing. for Hilary heard him shouting angrily outside.

 The deficit for the half-year had been eight thousand dollars. That much Lamartine's papers had shown, and Hilary could find no fault with the statement. It was, of course. impos- sible to arrive at any discovery with out experience of the practical work ing of the concession. and Hilary quickly realized that little was to be obtained by prolonged scrutiny. There was. however, a considerable expenditure for provisions at the Ste. Marie company's store, which he as- sumed to be the store on the property, in view of an item on the credit side for the lease of building. There, at any rate. Morris dishonesty was mani- fest. Hilary closed the books. He would discharge no man for insolence, but he felt that Morris was entitled to no more than his salary until October.
 Having closed the desk, he looked about the office. A door led into an extension of the two-story building.

He found that the key to the outer door fitted this, and, opening it, en- tered a very comfortable little living room, with a small kitchen at the back. A stairway at the back of the house, built on the outside, evidently led into the bedrooms. He decided to take over Morris quarters for his per sonal use.
 He had just returned into the office and put on his hat preparatory to leaving when there came a tap at the door. The frightened face of Jean Marie Baptiste looked in.

then he became aware of Madeleine Rosny upon her horse, at the end of the branch road, waiting for him to pass.
 Hilary felt uncertain and awkward Ought he to raise his hat to her? A glance at her face showed him that she was perfectly aware who he was. It showed him a firm chin, resOlutely set, two angry blue eyes, and flushed cheeks whose redness did not come from hard riding.
 He decided to bow. But before he did so the buggy had passed, leaving a path; and Mademoiselle Madeleine, her face averUed, started her horse down the hill. Hilary jerked the reins angrilH, and the pony set off at a gal
