"An interest in geography, shall we

"Or astronomy! We will assume

then added at once, as though memory

she turned away— her left hand. As
my fingers closed upon it. an instant
the emerald ring touched my palm.
I should think you would not wear
that ring," I said, detaining her hand,
it is too like hers; it is as though
you we:e plighted to her by it."
"Yes; it is like her own; she gave
it—"'
She choked and caught her breath
sharply and her hand flew to her
face.
"She gave it to my mother, long
a9,o," she said, and ran away down the
path toward the school. A bit of
gravel loosened by her step slipped
after her to a new resting place; then
silence and the night closed upon her.
T threw myself upon the bench and
waited, marveling at her. If I had not
touched her hand; if I had not heard
her voice; if, more than all, 1 had not
talked with her of her father, of Miss
Pat, of intimate things which no one
else could have known, 1 should not
have helievt d that 1 had seen Helen
Holbrook face to face.
CHAPTER IX.
When the man in the States was
told that he could get 160 acres of
land in Central Canada—comprising
the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatche
wan and Alberta—that under cultiva
tion would produce from 20 to CO bush
els of wheat to the acre, or if seeded
to oats the yield would be 40 to 60
bushels, he was skeptical. The same
story was told tho man who wished to
get nearer to existing lines of rail
way, and was only asked to pay $10
to $12 an acre. Put many tried it
some one plan and some another. The
man w ho accepted the 160 acres as a

IT. 15. Perlmm, who lias been acting as
chairman of the railway council in
session here, left Monday night for
Washington to seek advice.
' There may be a general strike,"
said Mr. Perham.

men's union, asserted;
"Several other members of the rail
way council besid« Mr. Perham, left
for their headquarters to make prep-
arations for a strike of their respec-
tive orders."
Mr. Perham in speaking of Mon-
day's developments, said:
"Friday we were on the verge of a
settlement with the railroads and we
thought the matter would be fixed up
Monday. Put the railroads presented
a mysterious 'change of front a-nil
assumed such arrogance that we de-
cided at once to have nothing more
to do with them.
"As the intervention of the stato
authorities has failed, 1 shall seek the
aid of the United Slates in putting an
end to a controversy that is causing
bankruptcy and suffering among the
innocent who have no voice in the

"You are rather proud of your at-
tainments, aren't you? I have really
read the play, Mr. Donovan; I have
even seen it acted."
"I did not mean to reflect on your
intelligence, which is acute enough; or
puisny tliter, that spurs his horse but
on one side, breaks his staff like a
noble goose; but all's brave that youth
mounts and folly guides.'"
"That is Celia's speech, but well
rendered. Let us consider that you
are Rosalind, folia. Viola and Ariel
on your attainments, which are suf- j all in one. And 1 shall be those im-
flcient; or on your experience of life,
"Well spoken! I really believe that
I am liking you better all the time,
Mr. Donovan."
"My heart is swollen with gratitude.
You heard my talk with your father at
his cottage last night. And then you
flew back to Miss Pat and played the
mortal villains of old tragedy—first
second and third murtherer; or, if it
suit you better, let. me be lago for
honesty; Othello for great adventures;
Hamlet for gloom; Shylock for relent-
lessness, and Romeo for love sick-
ness."
Again she bent her head; then draw-
ing a little away and clasping her
hands, she quoted: "'Come, woo me,
woo me; for now I am in a holiday
humour and like enough to consent.
What would you say to me now, an
I were your very, very Rosalind?'"

found that the story of splendid yields
was verified. They have had crops
exceeding that promised; they have
seen oats that yielded 100 bushels to

averaged 40 and as high as 50 bushels
to the acre. Their wheat was not a
57 lb. to the bushel article but 62 and
G3 lbs. They have seen within the
past year or two trunk lines of rail-
way constructed through their district,
and throwing out branch lines to the

town and the railroad. There is the
glow of newness about it all, but the
elevator, the splendid store buildings

wealth, beyond that of the strength
of the man who fashioned and built
them but the wealth of the soil, which
means that tho newness will be fol-
lowed by a steady growth. The writer
recently was a passenger over the
Grand Trunk Pacific, the latest fac
tor in this great marvelous field of
development. The rapidity with which
towns were being built up. the farm-
steads occupied, was something even
his experienced eye had not looked
for. Everywhere along the line of
this new transcontinental was the dis-
tinguishing mark of progress. Then-
was not a mile of the length of the
road from Winnipeg to Edmonton and
west that did not bear token of its
ability to pay tribute to the revenue
of the road. Mention is made of this
line, not because It is the last in
the field, but because It is one of the
best built roads 011 the Continent and
traverses one of the best districts
of an excellent country. It is well
operated, and already has gone into
active service as another means of
making it possible to secure more
speedily transit from the grain fields

the intention in this article to have
spoken of some of the yields of grain
that have made the farmers of Cen-
tral Canada contented this year, but

well for the reader. If he is interest-
