A pretty young woman a very pretty young one with the smell! angular face and smooth. eyelids of an} early madonna, dropped to her knees: hysterically when a rough hana! reached to a sapphire pendant which | hung deep on’ a bare chest from! which, in her excitement, she had al- most torn the already scant reach 01} her gown. “Please,” she pleaded to the bandit, ‘do not take my necklet | It ‘is of small value.

Despite all protests the wo-/ men were herded out of the barn, es-/ corled across the soggy open space, | through the pines, and onto the road. | There they were instructed to climb) into a big gray car, Joanna thought, she recognized it as the one’ they had! passed ‘on the road, but was not sure. A silent figure sat ‘at the wheel; one who knew every trick of the road ana, picked his way .surely through the mist to the final turn which revealed | the dim lights of the club house just) ahead. Here the gar stopped and the) women were ordered to descend and} proceed alone to the club house. “The | telephone wires have been cut, the | man who. had driven the car said to them when they were all in the road; | “you may be. prepared to wait until | the mist lifts or ‘your escorts find| their way below and send for you. | | | | | | | | | | “! have only arrived,” Brandon sai his words suave but-irratingly ironic. | circumstance, beconie “one of us.” | j and, | said, coolly. | worth. / you to know. elected to remain and who, by that time, had made serious inroads upon heir host's storé of champagne, The sense of the reception of those who| had thought it necessary to brave the mist. for a return to their places be low, by those who heeded not con: vention, Was that each ‘one. of the rob- bers’: victims had, by the unexpected Joanna sat apart from the’ ribala scene that immediately. -shaped itself. She made no pretense of restoring her mask to her face—by now all masks were openly discarded. Even the mask that restrained the club house ilselh had been dropped, and ihe revelry Was unbridled. Outside, after an hour, tlie big gray ear which had disappeared after de- positing the women slid up again te the parking yard and found a place to stand.

But something in Brandon's face numbed her lips. The fear that she had never shak- en off, crashed down upon her in a tumult—the. unformed, unutterable fear that came to her when he. first touched her fingers at the table across from Eggleston in the bank when she! had written her first check -against, her mysterious money. | “You here!” she breathed: “I didn’: | know-—-have’ you been—” | “T have only arrived,” he said, his words suave but irritatingly ironic.; “Iam lappy to find you—alone!” Joanna knew, from his tone and ‘his manner, that a climax purpended.

Navy. “One hundred per cent. efficient” is the watchword of the new German navy, which is now being — steadily devéleped in strength. ; The estimates for 1927 show. that Keen. attention is paid to improve- ments ‘in fighting equipment and na- val engineering: They further reveal the ‘comparatively. large program of new construction how under way. Money is voted for céntinuing work on four new eruisers of the Emden class (the nameship. of which was completed last year, and is now mak- ing’ a maiden trip around the world), 12-big.destroyers and one — torpedo- boat. There is a large increase in the vote for ofl-fuel, which: is now: used exclusively in all new ships, as well as in the older destroyers -recently converted from coal ‘to oil The fact that elaborate experiments are being made to perfect the Diesel motor for high-speed warships is re vealed for the first time. Germany | may yet produce the first high-speed ‘motor cruiser or battleship. The fleet now in active service con- of four battleships and five cruisers, with torpedo craft and .smal- ler-vessels. 1t is. now proposed to commission more big ships, as the re- substitution of civilians ‘ for sallors-in all shore appointments has released many: more officers and men for sea duty. The new German fleet is already the most powerful force in the Baltic; and at thé. present ‘rate ot progress its influence will soon be felt once more beyond the confines of that sea.

Seveal other nations have been working along the same lines-—but have not yet succeeded. Recent French experiments with new won- derful silencers have demonstrated that the ‘plane equipped with them could not be heard at a distance of 300 feet: from the gypund. Within a short time, absolutely silent ’planes will be a feature of the French Avia- tion Service, according to the same reports. ‘The laboratory has also been work- ing for many months on the question of.the color of ’planes and.the experts have decided upon’ a new dark paint which has the effect of so successfully blending the ’plane into the night at- mosphere as to make it invisible even within a few hundred feet of the land- ing field.

They cite ag an example a night attack by several hundred armored “planes, in- cluding bombers, upon an esemy city or position. : The enemy. anti-aircraft defences would. be immediately placed at a great disadvantage, for about the only means of detection left would be searchlights. During the World War the pecullar sound of approaching German ’planes, which to many people seemed to say the words “I will,” acted as a suffi- client warning to permit the French The Oil. for the Farmer.—A bottle of Dr. Thomas’.

Little Helps For This Week Thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.—Matthew xxv. 21. O Ye that faint and. die, arise and live! Sing, ye that all. things have « charge to bless; If He: is faithful who has sworn to give, Then be ye also faithful to possess. —Anna Laetitia Waring 1 will not,count On aught but being faithful. —George Eliot. The essential fidelity of the heart is the sani® whether it be exercised in two mites or-In a regal treasury; the genuine faithfulness ‘of the life ‘is | equally beautiful, whether it be. dis- played in governing an empire or in j writing dan exercise. Observe the striking fact that our Lord, does not say, “He that-is faithful in that which is least’ will be faithful also in much” but “Iie that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much.” —Frederie W. Farrar, Fly Five Miles & ‘Minute For. Great Britain i It will be possible to-reach Brighton from London in ten minutes on the new mystery supermarine Napier 8» and Gloster seaplanes. which have been built to represent Great Britain in the Schneider-Cup race at Vienna in September. Each, it-is anticipated, will be capable of.a speed of five miles a minute. These racing ’planes, which. have been referred to as “fly-- ing bullets,” are fitted with secret en- gines of enormous power, but with weight: reduced to an absolute mini- mum. : Delayed Punishment An opinion was.expressed by the ‘Canadian Prisoners’ Association re- cently that when a whipping sentence has been imposed upon a prisoner, it should be carried out immediately the prisoner énters the jail. The associa- tion claims: that to keep a prisoner in suspense, awaiting a. flogging over & long period, ig an unnécessary act of cruelty. While all the members or the association were not in favor o1 corporal punishment, they were unit- ed on the foregoing.

It has already been | proved that-aeroplanes can be launch- ed from the confined decks of ships by the catapult system. It has been shown that aeroplanes with no human beings on ‘board can be propelled on to: objects thirty-five miles distant, and it is expected that this range -will shortly be increased to one hundred miles.

Once a School Teacher— Later a Famous Physician A young man who was brought up on a farm in Western Pennsylvania qualified for district school teacher. Further pursuing his studies and teaching, he managed tosave enough money to put him thru medical col- lege. He began the practice of. medil- cine in the néw oil section of Penn- sylvania, and often rode horse-back through the woods to reach and re leve those who were seriously ill. He was a student of nature, knew and easily recognized most of the medic- inal plants growing in the woods. Finally, he moved to. Buffalo, N. Y., where he launched his favorite remedies, and, in a short time, they were sold by every druggist in the land. Today, the name of this man, the late Dr. R. V. Pierce, is known throughout the world. His Golden Medical Discovery is the best known general tonic for building up strength, restoring impaired tissues and enriching the blood. More they fifty million bottles have been sol in the U. S. If your druggist does not sell it, in liquid or tablets, you can obtain a trial pkg. of the tablets by sending 10c to Dr. Pierce’s Labor atory in Bridgoburg, Ont. We. N. U. 1676
