McCLUNG { | CANADA, 1925 — CHAPTER VIIl.—Continued it is. strange what an insulting word | ‘parson’ ‘can be when utterd by .some } people. It secs to impute all the | crawiing unctuousness, the eringing | dependence of the poor, starved. in- cumbent whose wretched existence _hangs on the whim of some drunken and dissolute squire. What right haa a parson, who should be.meek and appealing and apologetic, to look like this young! chap, who had the physique of a lighi-weight boxing, champion, Magis- trate Windsor, late of . Siockton-on- Tees, having this conception, though perhaps unconsciously, im: his- mind, looked upon the Reverend Edward Terry with extreme ill: favor. There was also the sudden antagonisin of the administrator of the law, who re- sents civilian. interference, particu- larly from the person he. calied “Par- son.” Let ihe church mind its, own business! Mr. Terry, reared in the “new schoo} of thought, would have stoutly insist- | ed that he was miinding his -business | as a minister when locking after the | straying members of his flock. “I am here to ask permission. to see | her,” the minister said; “the girl has | no relations nearer than Finland; she is only seventeen, aad she. béars an, excelient record. “Well, Sir, she will have to respect an officer of ihe Jaw. foreignefs. have no. respect for King’s uniform, and I duty to teach them. I don’t know: or eare anything about Ler: record. She may haye attended chapel three times a day and gone to the penitent benc! n, if you still use one; and maybe she ean recite verses; but she can’t knock one. of nig mph down-stairs and “get away with it—-that’s all.. And be- sides. can you tell me why a girl with to learn the a spiendid record should be found in! the. worst Chinese joint in the city, and have her hand when arrested? I would like to hear your explanation of that.” ‘These , take it as my! a box of heroin tablets in| | “I cannot explain it,” said Mr. Ter: | ‘ry quietly, “but I believe there is on) | explanation. 1 believe the girl is inno- , Veent.” RE | “Oh, indeed!” the magistrate shot i his eyebrows almost into his hair — | “without hearing one. word of evi-| ; dence or considering.the case at al | | your mind. is made up? Well! And if) | ste is innocent, why won't she tall? {She has refused to utter a word.

She is a high-, tempered, dangerous young anarchist —the sort I would like to see ducked | tn, the river.” At this the minister's temper broke ~ j into a thousand pieces, but his- voice | |was well) under control. “Surely | j these are strong words to come from jan administrator of the law,” he said | quieily. “Have we no law to deal with offenders that we must resort to !mob rule?

Steering Ships By Ear New, Signal Invented Which Has Proved. Efficient In Fog Fogs have always been the cause of great danger to ships entering har- bor; but now, by means of a new fog signal, they will be able to come in during dense fog ‘almost as safely as in daylight. The signal—which ‘is the invention of a Lowestoft. man—can so easily be understood that only’ recently. a young boy, the son of a-sea captain although blindfolded, was able to bring a boat safely into harbor. The signals are transmitfed from two horns at an equal distance on either side of the true channel. By an elec- trical timing apparatus the horn on the right sends out two short biasts, with a half-second between each two; and the one on the left sends out one long blast every half-second. To a ship ta the true channel—which is the cegtre—the sounds. from the horns appear’ to be continuous, but the slightest change in the ~ship’s course brings the sound of the two short blasts or the one long blast into prominence, according to whether the ship has veered towards the right or the left of.the channel. , The steersman can then tell at once that he has left the true course, and is able to correct the fault. In cases where the entry to. a har- bor is round a curve,.the signals are adjusted to allow for this. The con- trivance was recently. put to severe tests. It was found to be thoroughly efficient, and Will probably be install- ed at all the principal ports around the coast of Britain. If one be troubled with corns, he will find in Holloway’s Corn Remover an. application that will entirely re- Heve suffering. Helpful Baby Book We have just received a booklet, “Baby Welfare,” which is one of the most interesting and instructive we have seen.in a long time.

Clothing Baby’s Weight and. Measurements, with sundry hints as to safeguarding of baby’s health against. common ail- ments.
