Profit From. Wheat
The war's devastation of
European crops has caused
an unusual demand for grain
from the American Conti-

be fed and wheat near $2 a bushel
offers great profits to the farmer.
Canada's invitation is therefore
especially attractive. She wants

A Ready-Witted Parson.
The evening lesson was from the
Book of .Toh and the minister had just
read: "Yea, the light of the wicked
shall be put out," when immediately
the church was In total darkness."
"Brethren," said the minister with
scarcely a moment's pause, "In view of
the sudden and startling fulfillment
of this prophecy, we will spend a few
minutes In silent prayer for the elec-
tric lighting company."—Boston Tran-

On Will Training.
The magazines advertise many books
on will training. Each of them prom-
ises to heal the sick self, to strengthen
the feeble knees, to turn the poor In

brains, Pleasant Is the picture, very
pleasant and alluring, which these ad-
vertisements paint of the future. Your
Inhibitions shall be cast out of you,
they shall perhaps enter Into your
Gadarene competitors, who shall be
driven violently down a steep place
Into the sea, leaving your once faint

Indeed, your competitors happen to
better their wills by buying and read-
ing the same books, In which case the

• "Nor I," echoed Dave.
"You don't need to understand. I
know what I'm doing. I've thought of
a way to save us all."
'An Incoherent refusal was upon his
lips, but Alalre's face besought Jiim; It
was shining with a' strange, new ecs-
tasy, and he could not bring himself to
deny her. Of what her plan consisted
he had only the dimmest Idea, but he
assured himself that It could by no
possibility succeed. After all, what did
It matter? he asked himself. Thoy were
trapped. This might serve, somehow,
to cheat Longorio, and—Alalre would
be his wife.
"Very well," he stammpred, weakly.
"What are you thinking of?"
"I haven't thought It all out yet,
but—"
At that moment Dolores returned,
bringing with her the three black-
haired, black-shawled house servants,
bundling them through the door and
ranging them along the wall.
Father O'Mnlley's face was puck-
ered ; he said, hesitatingly: "My dear
.madam, this Isn't regular; you are not
Catholics. How can I bless you?"
"You can marry us legally. Just the
same, can't you?" Alaire was breath-
ing rapidly, and some part of her eager-
ness began to thrill her hearers.
"Oh yes, but—"
"Then marry us. And make haste,
please! Please!"
Law nodded. He could not speak,
for Ills mouth was dry. His heart was
beating violently; his temples were
pounding; all the blood of his body
seemed centered In his head.
Before the eyes of the four wonder-
ing women Father O'Malley married
them. It seemed to Alaire that he
would never reach the end, although, In
fact, he stumbled through the cere-
mony swiftly. Alaire clipped his last
words short by crying:
"Tell these people so that they'll un-
derstand what it all means. Tell them
to remember they have seen a mar-
riage by the church."
The priest did as he was directed,
and his audience signified their under-
standing. Then Dolores led them out.

CHAPTER XXIII.
The Man of Destiny.
"Now, then, I'll explain," said Alaire,
turning to the men. "Longorio declares
he won't have me except as his wife,
and I think he means 1J. He Is amaz-
ingly egotistical. He has tremendous
ambitions. He thinks this war Is his
groat opportunity, and he means to be
president—he's sure of it. He loves
me, but he loves himself better, I'm
sure. Now, don't you see? He'll have
to choose one or the other."
Father O'Malley did not appear to
appreciate the full force -of this rea-
nlng. "My dear," he said, gravely,
"he can make you a widow again. In
such times as these men are savages."
"Oh, but that's not all." Alaire
turned to her newly made husband.
"They let you In, and they'll let you
out again—If you go quickly, before
it's known what \ve've done."
Dave stared at her in bewilderment.
"I? I go, and—leave you?" He seemed
doubtful of her sanity.
"Yes." When he laughed shortly,
Alaire cried : "Dave, you must I Don't
you see what I'm driving at? If he
can't marry me, if he finds you're gone
and he can't lay hands on you, what
can he do but let me go? Dave dear,
for my sake, for the sake of us both—"
"You're excited," he told her, and
drew her to himself gently.
"Please! Please !" she implored.
"You don't know that man." said
Father O'Malley, with conviction.
But Alaire .Insisted, half hysterically
now: "I do; that's just It, I do know
him. He Is planning the greatest things
for himself, his head is In the clouds,
and he daren't do the things he used
to do. That's why I called In those
women as witnesses. He can't put
them out of the way. With Dave gonff
HI be safe. He can't Ignore our mar-
rlnge. But otherwise— There's no
telling what he may do. Why, he'll kill
you, Dave, as he killed Ed." She up-
turned a face eloquent with pleading.
"Won't you do this for me?"
"No 1" Law declared, firmly. "You
wouldn't ask it If you were In your
senses. Get me a gun and I'll shoot
my way out. We'll go until they stop
us. But don't ask me to leave you."
She searched his face eagerly, plte-
ously, then with a quiveriflg sigh re-
laxed her tension. "Then we've only
made matters worse. You've spoiled
our only chance."
Father O'Malley, who had been lost
in thought, spoke up again: "Perhaps
you will let me try my wits. But first,
do I understand that it was he who ef-
fected the death of—Mr. Austin?"
Dave recounted as coherently as he
could the circumstances of Ed's death,
and told how he had learned, through
Jose, of Longorlo's intentions. As the
priest listened a spot of color grew In
his cheeks, his eyes glowed with Indig-
nation. He was about to make known
what was In his mind when Alaire
raised her hand and in a strained
whisper exclaimed:
" 'Sh-h! Listen I"
The heavy door of the hacienda
creaked, a quick tread sounded on the
tiles, the door to the living room was
flung open, and Longorio entered. He
was hot and dusty from his ride, but
with a lover's impetuosity he had made
straight for this lighted room.
For the briefest instant he balanced
himself just inside the portal, and the
sinile remained fixed upon tyis lips.
Then his eyes became ringed with
white and he made a swift, catlike
movement of retreat. Plainly this was
the supremest surprise of Ills lifetime,
and he seemed to doubt Ills senses. But
lie recovered quickly. Thrusting his
head forward, he demanded:
"What is this? You—and you?" He
stared from Dave to the priest, then
back again.
They all spoke at once, but he heard
only Alalre's words:
"He came to find me."
I'ancho appeared In the doorway be-
hind Longorio, saying, "I heard you
ride up, sir, so I ran to tell you about
this fellow."
But the general cut him short. "Call
your men, quick," he cried In a voice
that sent the soldier leaping back Into
the night.
Alaire was clinging to Dave, merely
clutching him the tighter when he tried
to unclasp her hold. Her movement
into the shelter of his rival's arms in-
furiated Longorio, who uttered an ex-
clamation and fumbled uncertainly
with his holster. But his fingers were
clumsy. He could not take his eyes
from the pair, and he seemed upon the
point of rushing forward to tear them
apart.
"Don't touch her! Don't—" he be-
gan, cursing in a high-pitched voice.
"God! What a reckoning!" Then he
stamped his feet, he wrung his hands,
he called shrilly at the top of his vole*:
"Lieutenant! Ho, Pancho ! You fel-
lows ! Quickly!" Under the stress of
his excitement the feminine side of his
character betrayed itself.
Alaire felt her newly made husband
gather himself for a spring; he was
muttering to her to release him; he
was trying to push her aside, but she
held fast with the strength of despera-
tion.
"You can't harm us," she declared,
flinging her words defiantly at the
Mexican. "You dare not. You are too
late. Father O'Malley has just mar-
ried us."
Longorio uttered a peculiar, wordless
cry of dismay; his mouth fell open;
his arms dropped; he went limp all
"This Is the Man I Love—the Only
Man."
over, paralyzed momentarily by sur-
prise and horror; his eyes troubled; he
swayed as if his sight had blurred.
"I said I'd never marry you," she
rushed on, vibrantly. '"This Is the man
I love—the only inan. Yes, and I've
learned the truth about you. I know
who killed Mr. Austin."
Longorio did a very unexpected
thing then; slowly, unconsciously, as if
the movement were the result of a half-
forgotten training, he crossed himself.
But now from the hall at his back
came the pounding of boot-heels, and a
half-dozen panting troopers tumbled
through the door. He waved them back
and out into the hall again.
Father O'Malley, who had been try-
ing to make himself heard, stepped in
front of the general and said, solemn-
ly : "Take care what you do, Longorio.
I have married these people, and you
enn't undo what I have done. We are
American citizens. The laws of civili-
zation protect us."
The Mexican fought for his voice,
then stammered: "You are my priest;
I brought you here. I ottered to marry
her. Now—you force me to damn my
soul." Turning his eyes wildly upon
Alaire, he shouted: "Too late, eh?
You say I am too late! It seems that I
am barely in time."
I Dave added his words to the others:
\ "You are ten to one, but you can't have
her," he cried, defiantly. "Jose San-
chez confessed to the murder of Mr.
Austin, and told how you had got Mrs.
Austin to come here. The whole thing
Is known in Washington and Mexico
City by this time. The newspapers
have it; everybody knows you are
keeping her as your prisoner, and that
I have come for her. If she Is harmed,
all Mexico, all the world, will know
that you are worse than a murderer."
Longorio reached behind his back
and slammed the door in the faces of
his listening men.
"What is this? What did Jose con-
fess?" he inquired, sharply.
"He swears you hired him."
"Bah ! The word of a pelador."
In spite of the man's contemptuous
tone Dave saw the expression in his
face and made a quick decision.
"There's a limit to what you dare to do,
Longorio. I'm unarmed; I make no re-
sistance, so there is no excuse for vio-
lence. I surrender to you, and claim
protection for myself and my wife."
But Longorio was not to be tricked.
"Good 1" he cried, triumphantly. "I
have been looking forward to some-
thing like this, and I shall give myself
a great pleasure." He laid a hand up-
on the door-knob, but before he could
turn it the Catholic priest had him by
the arm, and with a strength surprising
In one of his stature wrenched, him
away. Father O'Malley's face was
white and terrible; his voice was deep,
menacing; the hand he raised above
Longorio seemed to brandish a weapon.
"Stop J" he thundered. "Are you a
madman? Destruction hangs over you;
destruction of body and soul. You dare
not separate those whom God hath
Joined."
'*4od! God!" the other shrilled. "I
don't believe in hiui. I am a god; I
know of no other."
'!Blasphemer 1" roared the little man.
"Listen, then. So surely as you harm
these people, so surely do you kill your
earthly prospects. You, the first man
in Mexico, the dictator.Indeed! Think
what you are doing before It is t^o late.
Is your dream of greatness only a
dream? Will you sacrifice yourself
and all your aspirations in the heat of
this unholy and impossible passion?
Tonight, now, you must choose whether
you will be famous or Infamous, glori-
ous or shameful, honored or dishon-
ored! Restrain your hatred and con-
quer your lust, or forego forever your
dreams of empire and pass into ob-
livion."
"You are a meddler," Longorio
stormed. "You make a loud noise, but
I shall rid'Mexico of your kind. We
shall Rave no more of you priests."
Father O'Malley shook the speaker
is a pareht shakes an unruly child.
See! You have completely lost your
head. But I want you to listen to what
I am saying. Whether you are more
good than evil, God must judge, but
the people of Mexico are good people,
and they will not be ruled by a man
who is wholly bad. You have the power
to remove this man and this woman,
yes, and this priest who dares to point
out the pit at your feet; but if you do
you will never command another Mexi-
can army. There is no war. We are
not your enemies. The world knows
we are here, and It Isolds you account-
able for our safety. Tomorrow you
will have to face the reckoning."
, Longorio listened. It was plain that
he recognized the truth of O'Malley's
words, but he was convulsed with rage.
'"Good I" he cried. "I see my dreams
dissolve, but I am not the first great
man to trade an empire for a woman.
Antony, the Roman general, laid his
honor in a woman's arms. I had a
shining destiny, but Mexico will be the
sufferer by my betrayal. Instead- of
Longorio the Deliverer, I shall be
known as Longorio the Lover, the man
who gave all—"
O'Malley Interrupted forcefully.
"Enough of this! Come with me. I
have something more to say to you."
He flung open the door Into the hall
and, taking the general by the arm,
fairly dragged him from the room and
into the one opposite. The lieutenant
and his men looked on In amazement,
shuffling their feet and shifting their
rifle-butts noisily upon the floor.
Alaire turned an anxious face to
Dave, saying: "He Is wonderful. Lon-
gorio Is almost—afraid of him."
"Yes; he may bring him to his
senses. If he doesn't—" Dave cast
his eyes desperately over the room,
conscious all the time that he was be-
ing watched with suspicion by the men
outside. He stirred restlessly and
moistened his lips. "Longorio would
be crazy to injure you,"
Ten minutes passed ; fifteen. Alaire
leaned, motionless, against the table;
Dave paced about, followed by the eyes
of the soldiers. One of the latter
struck a match, and In the silence it
sounded like a gunshot. Dave started,
at which the soldiers laughed. They
began to talk In murmurs. The odor
of cigarette smoke drifted in to the
man and the woman.
Finally the door through which Fa-
ther O'Malley and Longorio had passed
opened, and the priest emerged. He
was nlone. His face was flushed and
damp; his eyes were glowing. He
forced the Mexicans out of his v y
and, entering the living room, closed
the door behind him.
"Well?" his two friends questioned,
anxiously.
"I've done all I can. The rest is out
of our. hunds." The little man sat
down heavily and mopped his forehead.
"What does he say?"
"He told me to come h6re and wait.
I never saw a man so torn, so dis-
tracted."
"Then he is wavering. Oh-h!" Alaire
clasped her hands In thanksgiving, but
the father cautioned her:
"Don't he too sanguine. He Is not
mercy and seems lost to shnme. I have
never met a man quite like liiin. Do
you know what he feels at this mo-
ment? Chagrin. Yes, mortification
raised to the highest pitch, ahd a sort
of stupefaction that you should prefer
another man to him. He can't under-
stand your lack of taste." Father
O'Malley smiled faintly.
"Conceited idiot," Dave growled.
"His humiliation kills him. When I
saw that it was useless to appeal to
him on moral grounds, and that threats
were unavailing, I took another course
Something gave me Insight into his
mind, and the power to talk as I have
never talked before. All in a flash I
saw the man's soul laid bare before me,
and—I think I played upon It with
some cunning. I don't remember all I
said, for I was inspired, but I appealed
to his vanity and to his conceit, and as
I went along I impressed upon him,
over and over, the fact that the world
knows we are here and that It trusts
him. He aspires to the presidency; he
believes he is destined to be Mexico's
dictator; so I painted a picture that
surpassed his own Imaginings. He
would have been suspicious of mere
flattery, so I went far beyond that and
inflamed him with such extravagant
•isions as only a child or an unblushing
egotist like him could accept. I
swelled his vanity; I Inflated his con-
celt. For a moment, at least, I lifted
him out of himself and raised him to
the heights."
From beyond the closed door came
Longorlo's voice, Issuing some com-
mand to his men. A moment passed;
then he appeared before the three
Americans. He seemed taller, thinner,
more erect and hawklike than ever.
His head was held mora proudly and
his chest was fuller. A set, disdainful
smile was graven upon his face.
He began by addressing his words
directly to Alaire. "Senora," he said,
"I am a man of deep feeling and I
scorn deceit. Therefore I offer no
apology for my recent display of emo-
tion. If I have seemed to press my ad-*
vances with undue fervor, it is because,
at heart, I am as great a lover as I am
a statesman or a soldier. But there
are other things than love. Nature
constituted me a leader, and he who
climbs high must climb alone. I offered
Chapultepec as a shrine for your
beauty. I offered to share Mexico with
you, and I told you that I would not
be content with less than all of you.
Well, I meant it. Otherwise—I would
take you now." His voice throbbed
with a sudden fierce desire, and his
long, lean hands closed convulsively.
"You must realize that I have the cour-
age and the power to defy the world,
eh?" He seemed to challenge denial
of this statement, but, receiving none,
he went on, fixing his brilliant, fever-
ish eyes once more upon Alaire. "As a-
man of sentiment I am unique; I am
different from any you have ever
known. I would not possess a flower
without its fragrance. You did not be-
lieve me when I told you that, but I
am going to prove It. All your life you
are going to think of me as heroic.
Perhaps no patriot in history ever
made a more splendid sacrifice for his
country than I make now. Some day
the world will wonder how I had the
strength to put aside love and follow
the path of duty."
Alaire trusted herself to ask. "Then
we are free to go?"
The general's face was swept by a
grimace intended for a smile. "I have
ordered your horses to be saddled."
Dave, who had with difficulty re-
strained his anger at the-fellow's bom-
bast, was upon the point of speaking
when Father O'Malley took the words
out of his mouth:
"Would you send this woman out of
her own house into a country like
like this? Remember the fortune Id
cattle you have already taken—'

"NEW" WEAPONS REALLY OLD
Asphyxiating Bomb and Incendiary
Shell Outgrowth of Missiles Em-
ployed Long Ago by Chinese.
Many of the "new" weapons pro-
duced by the world war are really very
old. Thus the asphyxiating bomb Is
nn outgrowth of a missile employed
long ago by the Chinese. Instead of
deadly chemicals, it contained some
substance that emitted a nauseous
odor, accompanied by stifling smoke.
Later this device appeared in Europe
and tfas known by the inelegant but
expressive nume of "stlnk-pot."
Another Chinese war method paved
the way for incendiary shells. They
invented a rocket, later adopted and
widely used by the Saracens, which
flred a kind of ball having claws or
hooks that would catch hold to the
side of a building and set fire to it.
These balls were made of petroleum
and niter, which became famous la
the later ages as Greek fire.
The German device of throwing pe-
trol upon an enemy by means of a
pump was used long ago, when an at-
tacking ship often spouted flames at
the object of its assault. This plan
was reserved for close quarters, and
frequently resulted in the destructloo
of the vessel so attacked.
