THE STORY
With his English wife,"Cather
ine, and son, Jeems, Henry Bu
lain, French settler in Canada in
174f>, cultivates a farm adjacent
to the Tonteur seigneurie. As the
story opens the Bulains are re¬
turning from a visit to the Ton
teurs. Catherine's wandering
brother, Ilepsibah, meets them
with presents for the family. To
Jeems he gives a pistol, bidding
him perfect himself in marksman¬
ship. Hepsibah fears for the
safety of the Bulains in their
isolated position. Jeems fights
with Paul Tache, cousin of Toi
nette Tonteur, whom they both
adore.
CHAPTER III—Continued
— 6 —
Jeems was aware of her presence
and physically sensible of her cont
bativeness, but in (lie complexity of
action which surged over and about
him he could afford no discrimination
in the manner of using bis arms. legs,
teeth, and head, and at last, finding
herself disentangled, Toinette scram¬
bled to her feet considerably bruised
and in such disorder that no one
would have recognized her as tlie
splendid little lady of tlie seigneurie
who had come so proudly to I.ussan’s
place a short time before. Her hand¬
some hat was a crumpled wreck in
the mud. Her dress was twisted and
bedraggled, ifer bands and face were
discolored with soil, and her hair was
so tangled about her that she was al¬
most smothered in it. Despite this
physical condition, tier mental self was
more than ever inflamed with (lie tie
sire to fight, and seizing upon the hard
and woodlike stalk of a last year's
Sunflower which lay in the dirt, she
Succeeded in bringing it down with
artch force that, missing .Teems, it
f<uight I’aul on the side of the head
and laid him sprawling flat on his face.
This terminated the conflict for
Toinette, who gave a cry of apprehen¬
sion when she saw what she had done.
Paul had recovered from Toinette's
blow before Jeems could take ad¬
vantage of it, and what happened dur¬
ing the final round of contention re¬
mained largely a matter of speculation
in Jeems' mind. lie was sitting up,
after a little, and there was no one
to strike at. Paul and Toinette were
out of his reacli yet lie heard their
voices, oddly indistinct, moving in the
direction of I.ussan’s house. He tried
to call out, thinking that Tache was
escaping like a coward, but something
in liis throat choked him until it was
impossible for him to got breath enough
to make a sound. He made an effort
to rise that lie might pursue his
beaten enemy. The earth about him
swam dizzily. He was gasping, sick at
ids stomach, and blood was dripping
from his nose.
A horrifying thought leapt upon him,
and so sudden was tho shock of it that
be sat staring straight ahead, barely
conscious of two figures emerging
from the concealment of a thick
growth of brushwood twenty paces
away. The thought became convic¬
tion. He had not whipped Paul Tache!
haul bad whipped him—and ids ene¬
my's accomplishment had been so
thorough that lie could still feel tile
unstability of the world about him as
he drew himself to his feet.
His eyes and head cleared as the
realization .of defeat swept over him.
Then he recognized the two who had
appeared in the edge of the open. One
was his Dncie Hepsibah, the other
Toinette’s father. Both were grinning
broadly at the spectacle which be
made, and as they drew nearer lie
heard Tonteur’s voice in what was
meant to be a confidential whisper.
‘Ts it really your petit-neveti, friend
Adams, or one of Lussan’s pigs corne
out of its wallow? Hold me, or what
I have seen will make me split!”
But Jeems heard no response from
Hepsibah, for the trader’s face sud¬
denly lost its humor, and in place of
it came a look which had no glint of
smile or laughter in it.
CHAPTER IV
Next Sunday morning Jeems set out
for Tonteur manor with the thought
deeply intrenched in his mind ttiat he
would not fight Paul Tache that day
no matter what temptation might be
placed in his path. He had told his
mother where he was going and what
he was planning to do. and with her
encouragement to spur him on he felt
eager and hopeful as he made his way
toward tiie seigneurie.
This feeling was unlike the one with
which he had set out to fight Paul
Tache, and what he had to do loomed
even more important than any physical
vanquishment which he might bring
upon his rival. To soften Toinette’s
heart, now so bitterly against him, to
bring back the friendliness of her
smile, and to see her eyes alight with
the sweetness which she had been on
the point of yielding to him at Lus
san’s place were foremost in his mind.
He was anxious to see Toinette and to
offer her all that his small world held,
if thereby lie could make amends for
t lie ruin and humiliation lie had
brought upon her. A spirit of chivalry
in him, older than liis years, rose
above tlie lowly consideration of rights
and wrongs. He was sure lie was
right. Yet lie wanted to say lie was
wrong. Though lie did not know it,
years had passed since two days ago,
and he was a new Jeems going to a
new Toinette. His fear of her had
vanished. He was no longer borne
down by a feeling of littleness and un¬
importance, and for the first time he
was visiting Tonteur manor without
tlie thought of inferiority sending its
misgivings through liis soul. In some
mysterious way which he did not un¬
derstand. but which he strongly felt,
he had passed away from yesterday
forever.
Soon liis feet were in tlie path which
led to the manor. It was so still he
could have believed that every one
was asleep as lie courageously mounted
the wide steps to the door of Toinette's
home. On this door was a great black
knocker of battered iron. The face
of the knocker was a grinning ogre,
a gargoylish head which, from ids
earliest memory of it, had fl\ed itself
1 Ask You to Forgive Me.”
upon him as a symbol of the grim and
unapproachable spirit that guarded the
rooms within. His hand reached out
to awaken the dull thunder of its
voice.
liis fingers touched the cold iron.
He hesitated in t lie moment he was
lifting it, for he observed that the
door was open by a space of a few
inches. Through this aperture a voice
came to him dearly. It was a high,
biting, angry voice, and he recognized
it as Madame Tonteur’s. He raised
t he weight from its metal panel and
would have knocked when he heard a
name which made him pause in rigid
silence. It was liis own.
He iieard Toinette's mother say.
“Henri Buiairi was a fool for marrying
this good-for-nothing linglish woman,
and Edmond is a greater fool for not
ilriving her from the country when tier
breed is murdering and killing almost
at our doors. The woman was made
for a spy, despite the pretty face
which lias softened Edmond's silty
heart, and that boy of hers is no less
English than she. The two should not
be allowed to live so near to us, yet
Tonteur maintains they are his friends.
The place they have built should be
burned and the English woman and
her boy sent where they belong. Let
Henri Buiain go with them if he
chooses to be a renegade instead of a
Frenchman!"
“Fie upon you for such thoughts,
Henriette,” chided the milder voice
of Madame Tache. “I despise the Eng¬
lish as much as you or Toinette, but
it is unfair to voice sucli invective
against these two, even though the
woman is proud of tier pretty face and
her boy is a mud-slinging little wretch.
Edmond is a big-souled man and sim¬
****
Bright Idea That May Have Averted Tragedy
Allusions to the effective use of ridi¬
cule against his opponents made by
the late Lord Balfour during the term
of his chief secretaryship for Ireland
recalls an incident of long ago, when
a body of convicted prisoners who had
been concerned in one of the rebel
lions—the 1848—had to be marched
through the streets of Dublin. The
authorities had been warned that a
desperate attempt at rescue might be
made by the mob and even though a
military escort had been provided,
there was some uneasiness. In these
circumstances a really brilliant notion
occurred to tiie officer in command of
tiie troops. He gave instructions at
the last moment that the suspender

ply befriends them ow )f pity! Are I
you angry because of that. Henriette?"
“I am angry because she is English,
and her boy is English, and yet they
are allowed to live among us as if
they were French. I tell you they
will be traitors when the time for
treachery comes!"
Jeems had stood with ids fingers
clenched at the unyielding iron of the
knocker. Now lie heard another voice
and knew it was Toinette’s.
“1 think Jeems’ mother is nice," she
said. “But Jeems is a detestable little
English beast,!”
“And some day that beast will help
to cut our throats,” added tier mother
unpleasantly.
The great iron knocker fell with a
crash, and almost before the sound of
it readied a servant’s ears, tile door
swung open and Jeems stalked in.
The women were speechless as be
stood in the wide opening to the room
in which they were seated. He scarce
ly seemed to realize they were there
and looked only at Toinette. He re¬
mained for a moment without move
inent or speech, his slim figure tensit
and gripped. Then lie bowed liis iieaij
in a courtesy which CaPVufine had
carefully taught him. Wheh he spoke
liis words were as calm as those of
Madame Tache had been.
“1 have come to tell you I am sorry
because of what happened at Ltts
san’s place, Toinette,” lie said, and lie
bent his head a lit tie lower toward
her. “I ask you to forgive me.”
Even Henriette Tonteur could not
have thought of him as a boast after
that, for pride and fearlessness were
in liis bearing in spite of the white¬
ness of liis face. As the occupants
of the room stared at him, unable to
find their voices, lie drew back quietly
and was gone us suddenly ns lie had
appeared. The big door closed behind
him, and turning to a window near tier
Toinette saw him go down the steps.
An exclamation of indignation and
amazement came at last from her
mother, imt this she did not hear.
Her eyes were following Jeems.
lie went across the open and into
the fields. As lie drew near the foot
of Tonteur hill, Odd came cautiously
forth to meet him, but not until they
reached their old resting place at the
crest of the ascent did lie pause or
seem to notice the dog. Then he
looked hack upon the seigneurie. A
hit of iron had sunk into liis soul.
His eyes were seeing with a new and
darker vision. From die rich valley
which had been die fount of all Ids
dreams they turned to the faint gleam
of distant water in the south where
lay Lake Champlain, and beyond
which, not far away, were the Mo¬
hawks and the English and the land
of ids mother's people. It was the
blood of that land, running red and
strong in liis veins, which Toinette
and her mother hated.
He dropped a-hand upon Odd’s head,
and tiie two started over the home¬
ward trail. The dog watched the for¬
est and caught its scents, hut lie
watched and guarded alone, for Jeems
gave small heed to Hie passing inter¬
ests of the woods and thickets.
Late spring, then the beginning of
summer, followed Hepsibah’s arrival
at the Buiain home, and still lie gave
no betrayal of the restlessness which
presaged liis usual disappearance for
another long period into the fast¬
nesses of the world. This season of
the year was always one of torment
for (lie forest dwellers because of the
winged pests which crawled the earth
and filled the air, and Jeems had come
to dread it as an indescribable night¬
mare of discomfort and suffering.
From the first of June tintII the mid¬
dle of August, such plagues of mos
quttoes bred and multiplied in the
swamps and lowlands and woods that
beasts were half devoured alive and
the pioneers literally fought for their
own existence, smoking I heir cabins
incessantly, covering their tlesti with
hog fat and bear grease, and resorting
to every known subtlety that they
might snatch a little sleep at night.
Within a few days, it seemed to Jeems,
a world that had been a paradise of
flowers, of sweet scents, of ripening
fruits and delicious air was trans¬
formed inlo a hell of insect life which
shut out travel in all directions and
which invested witli poisonous torture
every spot where it was not partly
subjugated by fire and smoke. The
timber was heavy and dark, swamps
were undrained, rivers and lakes were
shadowed by dense vegetation, and in
the humid, sweating mold of thosfe
places, the malevolent pestilence was
horn and rose in clouds that some¬
times obscured the face of Hie moon.
During tiiese weeks a cordon of de¬
cayed slumps and logs smoldered night
and day about tie Buiain cabin,
screening it in pungent smoke, and
outside this small tavern work on tiie
farm was continued at a price of
physical martyrdom, except under a
burning sun, when the insects sought
refuge from tiie cisre and heat.

“PetriSee” Hair
Under favorable conditions human
hair will “petrify” just tiie same as
other parts of the body. When or¬
ganic matter petrifies, it merely sup¬
plies a mold for inorganic matter. At
a rule the hair petrifies as a mass
and only in rare cases are the indi¬
vidual hairs recognizable. The sam«
of course applies to the fur of ani¬
mals.—Exchange

IC—Repentance and Restitution.
I. Jesus Passing Through Jericho
(v. 1).
Jericho is noted as a stronghold of
tiie Caiiaunites which was miraculous¬
ly delivered into the hands of Israel
in response to their faith, Joshua G,
and also for the faith of Rahab which
saved her from destruction with tiie
city Heb. (11:31). Two notorious sin¬
ners, Itahab and Zacchaeus, were
saved at Jericho.
II. Zacchaeus Seeking Jesus (vv. 2-4).
1. His object (v. 3).
He sought to see who Jesus was.
He doubtless had iieard of Jesus’ kind
treatment of publicans, so was prompt¬
ed to see what kind of a man lie was.
2. liis difficulties (w. 2, 3).
'(1) His infamous business (v. 2).
He was a tax collector of the Homan
government. The very fact that u
Jew held such an office under tiie
hated Itomans would make him ex¬
tremely unpopular. Then, since lie
was rich, it was evident that he imd
practiced extortion in collecting taxes.
By virtue of liis traitorous act in ac¬
cepting such an office from the Ho¬
mans and liis extortion in collecting
taxes, lie was ostracized from society.
Many men have a hard time in com¬
ing to Christ because of their unpopu¬
lar business relations,
(2) His shortness of stature (v. 3).
lie was too small to crowd liis way
through to Jesus, and being hated by
the people, they had thrust him aside,
no doubt, with taunts anil jeers.
3. His persistence (v. 4).
file ran before the multitude and
climbed up into a tree. What lie
lacked in stature tie was determined
should lie made up by the height of the
tree. Zacchaeus seems to have been
of that temperament which knows no
defeat. The obstacles placed before
him lie brushed aside; those he could
nj>t brush aside he climbed over, his
heart set upon the goal.
III. Jesus Finding Zacchaeus
(vv. 5, G).
While Zacchaeus was trying to see
Jesus, Jesus was looking for him. This
Is always tiie ease, when desire Is
.stirred up in a heart to see Jesus,
Jesus is seeking that one. When
Jesus saw him he commanded Him to
come down from Hie tree and declared
his intention to go-home with him.
Jesus called him by name, but did not
utter a word which would humiliate
Zacchaeus. Jesus knew his heart's de¬
sire and dealt with him accordingly.
All souls wiio earnestly seek Jesus
shall be found of him. Zacchaeus
quickly responded. lie came down,
and with joy received Jesus. He act¬
ed wisely in that lie did not hesitate.
A moment’s indecision and waiting
would have kept Zacchaeus from Jesus
—from Jesus and salvation.
IV. Zacchaeus’ Conversion (vv. 7-10).
His conversion was sudden and thor¬
ough. He was converted before lie
reached the ground.
a. What the crowd said (v. 7).
They said just what they say today
when sinners come to Christ. They
call to mind tiie man’s former sins.
They also reproached Christ saying
that lie had gone to be a guest with
this notorious extortioner, tiie tax col¬
lector. That for which (hey reproached
Jesus was his glory. His supreme mis¬
sion was to save sinners (v. 10).
2. Wlmt Zacchaeus said (v. 8).
His conversion was thorough. It
took Hold upon liis heart. His new
life was begun with resolution an.l
restitution. He dedicated half of his
goods to the poor. The man who a lit¬
tle while ago was a grafter was now a
generous giver. His conversion got
hold of his pocketbook. His determi¬
nation to make restitution wherein he
had wrongly exacted taxes shows tiie
genuineness of his conversion. While
God forgets the past of the sinner
when he comes to Christ, tiie sinner
who is converted will seek to make
right all wrongs, tie they unkind words
or unrighteous deeds. Sorrow for sin
is not enough when restitution is pos¬
sible.
.3. What Jesus said (vv. 9, 10).
“Today is salvation come to thy
house.” The publican was now a
child of God, a son of Abraham. Sal¬
vation is a present reality to those
who receive Jesus Christ.

Watch Altogether Too
Valuable to Be Lost
A flock of reporters and camera
men journeyed to Camden to inter¬
view Sir Hubert Wilkins, who bail
flown down (o inspect ids submarine,
the Nautiiis.
Sir Hubert is most obliging, being
an old newspaper man himself.
Finally a photographer hit upon the
happy thought of having (lie Arctic

tlie submarine, while tiie cameras
clicked an "action” picture.
All went well until Hie strap on

Finally a workman retrieved Hie
valuable memento by means of a
