Culverts and Drainaee
\ patrol system for maintaining the
highways is deserving of serious con-
sideration: nevertheless. it is admit
ted by pioneer road builders that one
of the most essential features to the
permanency Of any highway is PROV
er drainage. This not alone applies
to the browning of the road and the
digging of bitches on their side to
carry off the water but the installa-
tion of culverts and bridges to take
care of all drainage problems along the
roadway.
II is generally understood that any
highway not properly drained in ev-
cry manner possible will always be a
source Of costly maintenance.

to whispered orders. He kept bound
Ing up on me, intent to fulfill an un-
achieved ambition Of licking my ear.
Cuthbert Vane tried, under his breath,
to lure him away. But Crusoe'e emo
tions were all for me, and swiftly be-
coming uncomfortable they burst forth
in volley of shrill yelps.
A loud cry answered them. It came
from Captain Magnus, who had scram-
bled to his feet and was staggering
across the clearing. One hand was
groping at his belt-it was fourished
in the air with the CLEAN of knife in
it-and staggering and shouting the
captain came on.

Amazement, still more than half in

Mr.. Shaw said rapidly:
YOU'RE right. OF course, If you
have found the cave, the best thing
we can do is to keep them shut up in
it. But we must move fast-perhaps
we're too late already. If they have
found the chest they may by now be
starting for camp with the first load
Of doubloons."
Again shook my head.
"They haven't found the gold," as
sured him.
The astonished faces grew more
anxious. at sho' have told on lille Miss
Jinny's brain," muttered Cookie to
himself.
'They haven't found the gold," I re-
iterated with emphasis, because the
gold is not in the cave. Don't ask me
how I know, because there isn't time
to tell you. There was no gold there
but the two bags that the pirates
brought back last night. The-the

lifted my eyes to the intent face Of
Dugald Shaw.
"All right" he said tersely. II think
you do know. How and what, we'll

Alvin hummed an old love song that
took him back to the early days Of
courtship. He slowed up the horses
as he peered through the leafless trees
of a grove near the road. Then he
chuckled as he caught sight of slim,
girlish figure and companion. She
was Luella Morse, the daughter of a
neighbor, and beside her was his own
handsome, stalwart son, Noble Blair.
They stood near together. fairly face

My first memory is Of voices, and
after that I was shot swiftly out Of, q
tunnel from an immense distance and
opened my eyes upon the same faces
which I had left at some indefinite
period in the past. There was Aunt
James, very fearful, and Miss Higgles-

orable Cuthbert's, very anxious and q
little dazed, and Cookies, very, very
black. The face Of Dugald Shaw
did not see, for the quite intelligible
