THE appearance of the cake
Il during the time it is in the
oven is a safe guide to its bak-
ing. But the time and tempera-
ture must be certain.
Loaf cakes require a moderate
oven-370 degrees Fahrenheit
and should bake for 40 to so
minutes. Layer cakes require a
moderate oven-36O degrees Fab
renheit-and should bake for 20
to So minutes. Small cakes and
cup cakes require a moderate
oven-375 degrees Fahrenheit
and should bake for Is to rs
minutes. Sponge cakes require a
slow oven-325 degrees Fahren.
heit-and should bake for 40 to
60 minutes.
During the first quarter Of the
time the cake is in the oven it
should rise and little bubbles
should form on top.
During the second quarter 1t
should continue to rise and a
crust should begin to form.
In the third quarter the cake
should begin to brown, and in
the fourth quarter it should fin
ish browning and shrink from
the sides Of the pan.

st. Pierre came in. The sight
of him, in this richest moment of
his life, gave David no sense OF
humiliation or shame.
Between him and st. Pierre rose
swiftly what he had seen last
night-Carmin F,anchet in all the
lure Of her disheveled beauty,
crushed close in the arms of the
man whose wife only a moment
before had pressed her lips close
to his; and as the eyes of the
two met, there came over him a
desire to tell the other what had
+. happened, that he might see him
Writhe with the sting of the
two-edged thing with which he
was playing.
Then he saw that even that
would not hurt st. Pierre, for
the chief of the Boulains, stand
ing there with the big lump
over his eye, had caught sight OF
the things on the table and the
nicely turned down bed, and his
one good eye lit up with sudden
laughter. and his white teeth
flashed in an understanding smile.
''Tonnerre, / said she would
nurse you with gentle hands"
he rumbled. "See what you have
missed, M'sieu Carriganp
az received something which
shall remember longer than a fine
nursing" retorted David. "And
yet right now ] have b greater
interest In knowing what you
think OF the fight, st. Pierre
and il you have come to pay
your wager"
st. Pierre was chuclkling mys-
teriousIy In his throat. It was
splendid splendid" he said, re-
peating Marie-Anne's words. "And
Joe Clamart says she ran out.
blushing like a red rose in Aug
ust, and that she said no word,
but flew like a bird into the
white-birch ashorep
"She was dismayed because ]
beat you, st. Pierre"
Non, non-she was like q lark
filled with joy"
Suddenly his eyes rested on the
binoculars.
David nodded. Eyes, she saw It
all through the glasses"
st. Pierre seated himself at the
table and heaved out groan as
he took one Of the bandage strips
between his fingers. 'She saw
my disgrace. And she didn't wait
to bandage me up, did she?"
Perhaps she thought Carmin
Fanchet would do that, st.
Pierre"
"And I am ashamed to go to
Carmin-with this great lump
over my eye, m'sieu. And on top
of that disgrace-you insist that
pay the wager"
ST do"
The Wager
st. Pierre's face hardened.
"Oui, am to pay. I am to
tell you all I know about that
bette noir-Black Roger Aude-
mard. Is 1t not SOP"
THAT is the wager"

ND then, suddenly, the girl
"A rose up on her tiptoes
was it done that she was
gone before he sensed that wild
touch of her lips against his own.
Like a swallow she was at the
door, and the door opened and
closed behind her and for mo-
ment he heard the quick running
OF her feet. Then he looked at
the old Indian, and the Indian,
too, was staring at the door
through which st. Pierre's wife
( had flown.
For many seconds that seemed
Ike minutes David stood where
she had left him, while Nepapinas
rose grunting1y to his feet and
gathered up his belongings, and
hobbled sulIenly to the Bateau
door and out. He was scarcely
conscious of the Indians move
ment, for his soul was aflame with
q red-hot fire. Deliberately-with
that ravishing glory of something
IN her eyes-St. Pierre's wife had
kissed him!
On her tiptoes, her cheeks like
crimson flowers, she had given
her still redder bps to him! And
his own lips burned. and his heart
pounded hard, and he stared for
q time like one struck dumb at
the spot where she had stood by
the window.
Then suddenly he turned to the
door and flung it wide open, and
on his lips was the reckless cry OF
Marie Anne's name. But st.
Pierre's wife was gone, and Ne
papinas was gone, and at the tail
of the big sweep sat only Joe
C7amart, guarding Watchfully.
The two canoes were drawing
near, and in one OF them were two
men, and in the other three, and
David knew that-like Joe Cla-
mart-they were watchers set
over him by st. Pierre. Then a
fourth canoe left the far shore.
and when it had reached mid
stream he recognized the figure in
the stern as that Of Andre. the
Broken Man. The other, he
thought, must be st. Pierre.
In the Cabin
He went back into the cabin and

lat the window. Nepapinas had
not taken away the basins OF
water, and the bandages were still
there, and the pile of medicated
cotton, and the suspiciously made
up bed.
After all, he was losing some
thing by not occupying the bed
and yet IL st. Pierre or Bateese
had messed him up badly and
couple of fellows had lugged him
in between them, It was probable
that Marie-Anne would not have
kissed him. And that kiss Of st.
Pierre's wife would remain with
him until the day he died!
He was thinking of it, the swift,
warm thrill of her yelvety lips,
red as Strawberries and twice as
sweet, when the door opened and

DO YOU KNOW
THAT

Plate glass overalls, masks and
gloves have been designed for
chemists in mixing acids, powders
and other inflammable materials.
The development of the suits was
forced by dangerous flares that
inture workers who mix tracer
bullet material. The powder used
is SO explosive that it Is often
ignited by static electricity. Glass
uniforms are made of small pieces
Of material bound together by
copper wires. 49,.

tempting to frighten me-" he said.

of the wager. st. Pierre"
For a moment st. Pierre was
clearly troubled. Then his lips
frightened. and he smiled grinnly
over the table at David.
