CHAPTER Xxx
The Guilty Man!

The inquest on the bodies of Hack
EFT and Lee Chambers had established
the fact, aScertained by a search-party
on the day after the fire, that there
were no human remains under the
charred timberS of the camp. NOtWith-
standing this, when the attempts made
to trace Mcdonald and his daughter
failed, it was generally believed that
they had been lured there by the out
laws, and had either died in the flames
or had been murdered and their bodies
disposed of.
jim Belts had nothing nor substan-
tial than anyone else on which to base
his search. He was resolved to free
Wilton, and, having failed with Kitty,
he determined to discover the other
woman who, he felt sure, had been
mixed up in Wilton's life-if she
still lived.
Jim Belts built up the theory that
Wilton had arrived at the camp too
late to save the girl from Bowyer, and
that. half-crazed, she had fled with her
father into the wilderness. He went
to the fishing camp and spent a day
prowling among the ruins, but he
learned nothing there. Then he went
to the store. 1t was still empty, for
a new trading post was being estab-
lished northward, and the company had
not replaced the factor, perhaps would
not do ca pettc broka in
Everything was as it had been on
the night of the fire. But Belts quick
ly discovered that someone had been
there since. For in the dust that cov-
cred the floor of Molly's bedroom were
the faint imprint of feet. A woman's
foot
That was all the clue Belts got, but
It satisfied him. He cast about him,
northward and eastward, going into
every Indian encampment and talking
with the inhabitants. But 1t was a
week before he got his second clue.

MOSAIC REAL WORK OF ART
New Yorker Made Decorative Use OF
Currency Accidentally Torn In
Banks Money-Room.

Greenbacks or yellowbacks that
were accidentally torn in the money
room of a bank have been put into
decorative use by A. J. Bame Of New
York city in the making OF mosaic
22M by. 28h inches. The original
would have value Of $4,000 It 1t
were made from good bills.
More than two thousand pieces are
contained in the design, and Mr.. Bame
put into the task all his spare time
extending over a period Of ten months.
Each piece Of the mosaic had to be
ironed out and cut with small scis-
sors. Many Of the pieces were so
small that they had to be held by a
pair Of tweezers in order to cut them.
The very lifelike eye OF the eagle
was made from the figure 2 with the
bottom cut OF while the beak was
from the yellow back Of q $40 bill.
The little designs found on s. bills
were used for the feathers In the
eagles head. and the neck feathers

day, because they'll see some good
even among the bad conditions they
claim to deplore.
Those who become disheartened in
doing good, because of the constant
fault-finding, need new estimate OF
the Importance of the work in which
they are engaged. Instead of being
sensitive Of criticism, it would be
much more to their credit if they ac-
cepted fault-finding as something to
be expected; then their efforts would
likely be more effective in accomplish
ing the amount of good they Sc: out
to do.
On the whole, the influence OF re-
ligious work, even though slow and
disappointing at times, is responsible
for the high moral code under which
virtually all the civilized world
operates. There may be evasiens of
the true course which Is generally ac-
cepted as the pathway everyone should
tread. But, nevertheless, as a rule
people don't side-step very often with
out experiencing pang Of regret and
without lowering their estimates OF
themselves.
1t Is always disappointing when
those who teach others stray from the
proper course themselves. But. It /.
well to remember that no one is Der

The Friendly Path
By WALTER I. ROBINSON
NO ONE IS PERFECT

<<TF MErI are so wicked with re-
ligion, what would they be with
out it?" Those who are so free
with criticism of what religious or
CARNATIONS are trying to do are
seldom found helping intellectually
in making their work more effective.
1t always is much easier to find fault
than to offer helpful advice. In re-
ligious work or anything else Of con-
sequence there are always certain to
be those who devote most of their
time to criticising. In consequence,
by fault-fi finding, without commentator
or pointing the way to overcome the
things to which exceptions are taken,
the natural tendency is to disrupt,
weaken and frequently destroy much
of the good that otherwise would
make the world better and its people
more happy. Let those who are SO
| free with their criticism Of religious
activities keep the lesson Of the prov.
erb that they'll get moro Joy every
