WHE SENTINEL, SEDGEWICK, ALBERTA Injustice 4 By Arthur Applin Ward, Lock Co. Limited London, Melbourne Toronto- lt;Contipred) The motor car ran into Dover as the chureh clocks were striking the hour of two. The run of about eighty miles had been completed under a couple of hours. Francks first visited the three or four pri cipal hotels, then the police- station, .nd finally the railway station. Th re was a train due from Charing Cross at three-seventeen; the next boat tor Calais did not safl until elev- en o'clock at night. He found there Was one leaving Folkestone at ten - minutes past four with which the two- train: from Charing Cross con- nected. Will you wait ne:c and watch, Francks said to Roberts. You know hat to do if you find them. The Jew nodded. In the mean- while you can hunt the hotels again, Tell them Sinke them take action. get on he phone to Silver n and tell them where you ere. He leapt into the car asain, but be- fore he started the motor, he held out his hand. Give me that revolver. Aaron Roberts handed it over. You won't use it for her sake? Not unless I am too late. Roberts watched him out of sight. The time then wanted a few minutes to half-past three, Before four o'clock struck, Jimmy Francks was standing on the pier at Folkestone waiting for the arsival of the boat train. He knew the dds were-that Scribner would not us2 the train, but travel by motorcar. Again there was the possibility he migh: have a private yacht lying at one of the ports on the South or West coast. Ile stooc where he could -se everyon who passed along the pier without being seen himself. The time was drawing near for the boat to start but still.no sign of Scrib- ner or Iris and he was on the point of trying the railway station when he caught sight of Reuben. Making a rush he pushed aside the man who tried to stop him and .tumbled on to the deck cf the steamer as it gave a final shriek. Already she had cast off, the gangways had. been drawn back, het uose was slowly. turned seaward. : Frencks laid his liand ci Reuben s shouldet. When the boy saw him he gave.a sharp cry, clung to him fiercely shaken by a sudden panic. Franchs silenced him, then gradually drew him into the stern ot the boat where they could be lone. Your sister's on board? answer me Reuben oe his head, H was trem ntly,.he mumbled inca- herently, Sante )sumbied from his lips pell-mell. Francks xept an iron grip of him- self and waited patiently. Once glanced back over his shoulder, ready the pier was .recec'n from sight, the boat was meeting the waves which rolled an from the Channel. Rerben, listen to me, he said quiet- ly, don t be afraid. I know what's pepe but I don t know where Iris is. You vere with her; where has Scribner taken her? Reuben put 1 hands to his head, the veins stood out is knots on his forehead. I don t know it happened so quickly. She didn t tell me any- thing until it Was too late It s not true, Jim, it s nct true. Seribner lied, that woman lied. Francks ground his teeth; he held the boy in a vice now. Unconscious Quick, o of what he was doing, he shook to and fro. Never. mind that. ner take her? Again Reuben shook his head.

Except the powder, everything that goes into Wi cart Was a Ife, he muttered. known, but I didn t understand, I only a; knew she loved you that Saintsbury had cheated you of her, Francks released him and turned away with a groan of despair. It seem- ed indeed as if this were the end. The It I had only peuecoce the gods had bequeathed im. . But suddenly Francks heard him give a mad cry and saw him dash along the boat which was now pitch- ing and rolling as she met the full force of the Waves. He started to follow him, then stopped, clinging to the davits with all his strength. A few yards away, leaning over the rails, he saw Fred Scribner. The lat- ter looked up as he heard Reuben's cry, but before he could move away. the boy had seized him. instant Francks had joined him. Scribner recovered himself quickly. You're too late, Franc I pre you came to find Miss de Foulaisne: Wormers) married at one o'clock to- jay It s a lie, Francks whispered. The stern of the boat was almost deserted; the sea was very rough, and all the passengers had gone be- low. A :ailor in oil-skins lurched past them; a wave leapt high over the side ef the boat and drenched them with spray. Scribner tried to fling Reuben off, butsthe boy clung to him tenaciously with almost superhuman strength. Listen, he shrieked to Francks, his voice rising about the roaz of wind and waves, and don t let him escape, for he has cheated us both. It was I who poisoned your wife When you went out of the room to meet Iris I emptied one of the bottles from the case into the tumbler. I -aw you had prepared a dose of medicine and knew you were going to give it to he- I I didn t know that I was doing wrong. I wanted to make Iris nappy, she loved you, you belonged to her. His voice rose higher and higher, his large eyes shone ith a strange light. Francks was looking at Fred Scribner; the latter's face had gone quite white, the corners of .is mouth trembled. + Here, someone, take this madman away, h cried. Francks drew . step closer to him. It's true, Scribner, and I know it. But I was ready to take the guilt upon myself to save this poor boy. to save the woman you profess to love. Reu- ben killed my wife, and I knew it. I tell you, but if necessar- I would have pleaded guilty to save him. Now it s too late, znd everyone shall knew the truth, and you who 4ave lied and perjured your soul away, shall pay the p. ialty Be: as Francks could defend himself Scribner had freed his arms, and he struck Francks. twice full in the face. The latter reeled back and fell hesvily on to the slippery deck. Reu- ben released his grip for a moment, then ecat-like, bounding on to the rails he fastened his hands around Ser-b- ner s throat. A great wave took the boat on the port-side and she reeled over and Reu- ben lost his footing. A wild ee ae3 laughter left his lips .s he an instant in mid air, his ian ata grasping Scribner's throat. Choking, ve latter tried to free him- self; again the boat lurched and he lost his feoting. A wave swept along the deck and for a mement tle twe struggling figures on the rails were hidden from sight. When the boat righted herself they were no longer there, but away in the stern of the steamer where the white waters danced, the figure of a man was visible, for an instant, struggling; then his arms went up and he disappeared from sight. A boat was lowered and a search was made, but in vain. . Both Fred Seribner and Reuben de Fontaign had disappeare. for ever. Unconscious of what was happening Tris. was lying practically a: prisoner in a private stateroom in the centre of the boat. Not until Calais har- bor was reached andthe steamer was lying alongside the pier did Francks open the door and confront her. She stared at him unable to believe her eyes, then staggering forward fell into his arms. The night mail brought them back to London, and early next day she was once more in safety at The Grange with her mother. The shock she had zeceived had been a great oe. and for a little while her life was in danger. But gradual- ly she recovered, and it was a Francks who nursed. her health. You are home at last, he reminded her, at rest in your own home the one we built together. It was not until a month later that she learnt how her brother had lost his life, and that Fred Serlbner would never trouble her in the future. And she never knew the part Reuben play- ed in the tragedy at the hotel.

THE END HOW LONDON GETS MILK When the Biggast City Had a Famine So much milk fs sent up to London ax 1 the price is so high that poor peo- ple in country d:stricts. have simply to go without it, was the startling statement made by Lady Meyer at the conference of the National Food Re- form Association the other day. But it is not so surprisir: after all when we remember what a mighty volume of milk the people of the me- tropolls consume every year about 112,000,000 gallons for which they pay annually about five million pounds. There is no city of magnitude in the world that can compete against Lon- don with its milk supply. About fifty years ago the milk that was consumed in London mostly came from distri.ts within the metropolitan area. But foo? and mouth disease broke out among the cows, and it was then that London experienced a real In another io famine twas-at this time that heed. a far-seeing man Sir George Barham thought of getting milk from the healthy cows in Wilts and. Hants, London's greatest supply of) milk comes from Wilts, but large quanti- tfes come also from Derbyshire, Staf- fordshire, Berkshire, Buekingham- shire, Hampshire and Surrey. Milk has.come to London even from Wales, Ireland and Penzance, and in a few instances from Scotland.. The foHow- ing figures represent approximately the -number .of chugns which . are brought by different railways to Lon- don every year (each churn contains about 14 gallons of milk): Great Western Rajlway, 1,200,000. churns; Creat Nefthern Railway, 400,000 ehurns; Midland Railway, 341,000 churns; London and Brighton Railway 255,000 churns. All these railways took to the en- terprise from the beginning and what then proved an ill-paying item is now one of the most flourishing, and keen competition exTsts in counties, which are traversed by more than one rail- way company. Special trains led to the building of special milk vans and the movement towards sanitary insu- lation led to improvements which were not dreamt o7 at an earlier day. Every line has its refrigerating vans with special accessories for excluding dust and all kinds of germs. The lat- THE STANDARD ARTICLE SOLD EVERYWHERE REFUSE An Obliging Horse A doctor and a clergyman were ex- ercising their hors s one morning in a country lane, when an argument arose between them as to which of the ani- ee possessed the sweeter disposi- ion. Tl wager that if their respective tempers could be tried, said the doctor, mine would be far away the better. . That s all nonsense, retorted the clergyman. My mare has the best temper of any hors; in the nefghbor- Well, here's a stiff hedge, let us try-their leaping capabilities, suggest- ed the doctor. Right you are, agreed his friend. The doctor s hunter quietly refused the jump, although put at it again and again. The clergyman s little mare also refused, but at the same time threw back her ears and exhib- ited considerable ill-temper. When repeatedly urged .to jump she finally accomplished a clever buck-jumping feat, which threw her master straight over the hedge Strange to relate, the reverend gentleman wag quite un- hurt, and scrambling to his feet comi- menced to scrape tie mud from his broadcloth, whilst the 2octor laughing- ly remarked: Perhaps you are convinced now that my animal pas a better disposition than yours. Not at all replied tha clergyman. My mare is such n unselfish little brute that although unable to take the fence herself, she had no desire to keep me from going over. In fact, she facilitated the mode of my transit whilst your horse displayed a dog-in- the-manger temperament by not going himself and rot allowing you to go either.

The stationmaster was quick to notice the importance of the arrival, and as the porter passed him struggling with the heavy Gladstone, managed to whisper: Be careful, Bill That's Lord Blank, one of the direct- yors. The porter s chance of a tip vanish- d with this information, but subse- quently upon relinquishing the bag, '.e was astonished to find himself the re- cipient of a shilling. Mcmentarily surprised, he stared at the coin in his palm, and the director thinking his behaviour savored of dis- satisfaction, remarked: Under the company s regulations you are not sup- posed to accept gratuities. Yes, sir no, sir, stammered the porter, and then, recovering 1's self- control an closing his left eyelid, he said: But ons employe never splits on . another . It was a crowded car.

The passenger who had beer. fidgeting in his seat for several hour got up at last and strolled along the corridor to the front of the -ain, where he came upon the guard playing marbles with the engine-driver. Hallow, there he call d. I suppose you don t mind a bit of good advice if it's given in a friendly spirit? The sonduetor pocketed two marbles and said he Then why, aoa the pale passenger, don't you have the cow-catcher taken off the front and put on the back. The conductor stared bard and sus- piciously. Why should we? he asked at length. Why, responded the pale pa:senger, for fear a cow might come along the track and bite somebody. Warts wili rende: the prettiest hands unsightly.
