NJ. Vibart's household consisted Of his
granddaughter, Renee Wharf, and, Of serv-
ants, a g8rdener-chauffeur, the wife Of
this man who was cuisiniere, and a young
girl femme -de-chambre. Renee's father, a
cOmmandant Of fantassins, had been killed
at the first battle Of the Marine.
A young man named Andre Wharf, son
Of M. Vibart's brother, deceased, was and
had been for the last two years a frequent
Sunday visitor to the villa. Before the war
Andre had been a bad lot, mauvals sujet,
but never to any criminal degree At that
epoch NJ. Wharf had forbidden him the
house, thoroughly disliked and disapprOved
him, though sometimes helping him out of
some scrape, paid debts or fines for auto
mobile arrests.
But Andre had distinguished himself in
the trenches, been awarded the CrOix de
Guerre and later the Med8ille Millitaire
Four times wounded, he had been left with
a shattered knee joint, for which he wore
a brace to correct the frail articulation. AS
a trench raider at the front of the front
he had the reputation for a ferOcity that
was admired b! some of mis- comrades
though others found it extreme.
On the whole, however, his military expe
rience appeared to have improved Andres
former reckless habits. His escapades

ceased. Through one Of the surgeons who
had treated him when wounded he had
got a position in the administration OF one
Of the big municipal hospitals, where he
was well enough spoken Of, though con-
sidered taciturn and sometimes mOrOse.
Due to his war record and improved hab-
its, NJ Wharf had become recOnciled to
his nephew and permitted his Sunday
visits, dejeuner and the spending Of a
quiet afternoon at the villa. Andre was also
in good enough accord with his pretty
cousin, Renee. She was a cheerful, ener-
getic girl, capable hOusekeeper, and adOred
her grandfather. But for the last few
months she often had been unhappy, be-
cause Of an attachment formed for a young
man named Robert Delmas.
Robert had for some years occupied q
position Of trust in one of the big Franch
banking houses. He had served as liaisOn
knowledge Of English, German, and Italian
with certain other personal qualities of a
quick-witted, diplomatic sort.
Andre detested Robert; referred to him
or the sheltered" For some reason that
he did not see fit to reveal, Monsieur
Wharf had also conceived a dislike fol-
Robert, though he maintained toward hin
sort Of cold pOliteness. But the old
gentleman had told his granddaughter
Renee, that not only would he never give
/ his consent to her marriage with Robert
/ but that if she were to marry him without

The examination Of his will now showed

report Of a recent physical examination b,

The villa was we'll disposed for the pur-
suit of this admirable occupation. 1t COM
prised three hectares (acres 7.41) enclosed
by a high wall. The jardin pOtager, or
truck garden in the rear of the property
included about a third of this space. At
the far end Of it there was a small stone
building about ten feet square with a
peaked roof of moss covered tiles and a
cement floor. 1t had a door in front and
single window two feet by foot and a
half in the rear, and some four feet from
the floor on the inside. This hut, or cabane,
as it was called, stood out some twenty feet
from the wall at the far end of the garden,
and directly behind it the wall was pierced
by a door that was kept locked. The last
time the door had been opened was about
a month earlier, when a cartlOad Of manure
had been drawn up to it and the contents
thrown in a heap against the rear wall

At about that same time NJ. Wharf had

from the weather merely by the projecting

i. p. Erb, Anaconda inventor,
has received notice from Washing
ton that his application for a pat
ent on a resilient tire for auto
mobiles has been granted. He has
letters Of patent from Great Bril-
tain and Canada and has made ap-
pliCatiOn for the same i'm other
countries. It is claimed that the
new tire is practically puncture-
proof. He makes these claims for
his invention.
1--WE have a tire that should not
rim-cUt, and should carry the load
with less consumption of power, and
should ride as easy as any balloon
tire made 1t will not hit all the
destroying power, similar to a bal
and will not rub on sides of a rut,
roads on account of the narrow tread,
rocks or obstacles found on the rough
loon tire in operation at times, and
when chuck holes are found the tire
will invariably find the solid bottom
where traction is available instead of
riding in soft mud and slipping, such
as tires with a broad face do at times
and the auxiliary tread should be
Of value in case either the casing OF
tread should become ruptured by ac
cident."
Mr.. Erb has invented an engine
that while on show in Anaconda some
months ago, attracted attention. The
plans and specifications of this en-
gine are still under consideration il
