Tired with her long journey and
bit disguised with her errand, Jean
Clifford descended from the dingy coach
and found herself standing on the plat
form Of small country station, dimly
lighted, gloomy with the night.
"What a crazy way to be married !"
she exclaimed to herself. II hope there
is some one here to meet me-" H..
Save for the old station agent, who
was busy with his own cares, no one
was about; so she sat down In the
smoky waiting room and thought over
the situation. E - |....'
Mr. Curtis did not want the. mar
riage to take place; neither did Ryder
Sabin; so she had been forced to take
the lonely ride to the northern lake
cottage where the marriage was to
take place-a secret affair.
The door opened and mans face
appeared. He looked at her, then
smiled.
1--WE are waiting for you, MISS" he
said.
Jumping up, thankful for the sight
of friendly face, she hurried out.
Her bag was taken, and in moment
she was in a machine, headed away
into the darkness.
There was no one in the car save
herself and the driver, and she settled
buck with sigh Of pleasure. The
road was a rough one, but the driver
was skillful, and they went along
swiftly through the woody-smelling
darkness. Suddenly they swung down
a grade and before her was the long,
level brightness of the northern lake.
A voice called from the shore.
The machine turned and stopped.
"Here we are, MISS" the driver said.
A swift suspicion raced through her

King khama.

His Majesty Khama, the native king
of Bechuanaland, an earnest supporter
of prohibition, is reported to be greatly
exercised over the recommendation of
a government commission, in support
of the sale Of beer and light wine to
the native population. If this recon-
mendation is carried out, King Khama
threatens to retaliate by Withdrawing
the native labor from the gold mines.
Such a step would create very acute
labor situation in that country. It
looks at present as if breweries and
wineries would be obliged to seek some
other outlet for their products. It
might be we'll for them to try a more
enlightened part of the world where
such primitive ideas do not prevail.
