I am a poor man, and-" Cynthia became almost angry at his suggestlveness. - “Of course it will return, msn- Sieur. Have not I told you so?" Ceau was persistent. "D0 I understand. mivamselxs, that li' it does not then Monsoeur Cavendish will be responsible," Cynthia flushed. "M°I\Si¢U\'. how can you suggest such a thins? Of course Monsoeur Cavendish is responsible for noth- ing.’ ' “Then I am sorry, ma'amselle, but-~" He paused, and made what seemed an irrelevant suggestion. "There is a sailor here, an Irish- man who put into port thisafter- noon. He is a friend of mine. Ma'amselle will pardon me, but he has news which I think will interest her." The English woman gasped again, “You have a sailor who-but I don't understand, Monsieur. You are talking in riddles.” Yet al- ready a nameless fear had seized her. His manner was ominous. “Oh well, if you won`t explain I will see him in-in the lounge." ’ Ceau bowed. “I have seen that the lounge is Emhty, ma'amselle. My friend waits for you there now." He proceeded her out of the room. Damdly, Cynthia followed. Down. stairs, in the shabbily-furnished, many-windowed apartment dignifi- ed by the name of a lounge, she found a big bearded. Irishman standing against the sideboard, his hands stuck into the pockets of his shabby'uniform, smoking a foul cigar. His appearance was repulsive from the first. He looked like a brute with some subtle pre occupa- tion, as if he was amused at a poke known only to himself. He bowed, it seemed moeklngly, when Cynthia came in alone. With boisterous eleg- ance he introduced himself. _ "Ah, you‘ll be the little lady the old man spoke about, miss." he beamed. dofling a hat he hadnot taken off before. "Me own name's Mufllhl’ and 1'V¢ just come Nor'- East out of Sydney. He chuckled, shaking his shaggy head again and again and continuing to puff, re. flectively, at his cigar. "A devilish crowns it was, too, missy. one or the worst I knows of, in truth. May- be you knows Sydney," he conjec- tured, his grey eyes twinkling mall- ciously as he regarded her in that curiously appraising way no woman mistakes.- “No, I have never been to Syd- ney," Cynthia replied, "but I may do. In fact, my-yacht is returning from there in a few days.” The fear became more definite. Her cheeks paled as she saw the queer look on his face. Desperately, eagerly, she held out a hand to him. “But per- haps you have seen my ship? It may have been in harbour when you left? Oh, of course," and she lsugh. ed, lmconvincingly, "you've got g message. Mr. Smythe gave you some message for me." She stopped, staring, for he shook his head. He did not look at her, though. He was twirllng his foul cigar in his grimy fingers. | "Ah, no, I aint got no message, , il'ilS5." | Her brow clouded. ` "Then," helplessly, “I don't under- stand. You bring mc news of thc| Sweet Vanity, perhaps?" 1 "Ah, yes," he said, and seemed to enjoy his mysticism. "I do bring ye, news, ma`am." ’ Suddenly her fears burst into n. flame of horror. With a little cry she stumbled towards him and laid' a hand on one of the burly should- ers of this vagrant of the seas. "Then what is lt? What news do you bring?" But as suddenly, too, the burly sailor started up from his lounging attitude and stared towards the windows giving a clear view of the harbour. Despite her terror of fear, Cynthia became aware, also, that A red glow had been slowly illuminat- ing the gloom ofthe apartment. Bhe had not noticed it at first, but that brilliance did not deceive the sailor. With a ery of alarm he strode to the window and stood staring out | l l I the baffled girl followed him. A cry of blank dismay escaped his lips as he beckoned her. “For the love of Mike," he cried, “lookl Theres a dozen boats there, burnin’ like blazesi" Cynthia raced to his side, and a cry of horror came from her lips as she saw the sight, terrible in its wonder. It was by the quay, where a long line of tall-lnasted .fishing boats had been moored for the liiilht in their accustomed place. How it had happened was more than human mind could conceive; but from one end to thc other, the line of boats had become a, mass of streaking, vicious flame. In the tropical neat me masts, the folded sails, the sun-patched hulks of every one of the little ships were a. blaze of ilre that stood set against the dulling skies of evening in blood- Std. writhing fury. Cynthla‘s hand went to her mouth, stifling a scream as she fell back, her face white with terror, and stared at the seamen. "In heavens name," she cried, hoarsely ,“who-whose ships are those? That is a. whole smack, and~ah, heaven, theyre not-they ca.n‘t. be--2" The sailor shrugged as he turned. Somebodys set 'em alight, usln' petrol or spirits of sore sorts,” he retorted, callously, a little bewilder- ed at her sudden fright. “Anyways, that ain't no accident, the way-ah," and he nodded as Ceau came run- ning into the room, "tell us, old man, whats been happenin’ down t' harbour way? Safe enough from the other craft, maybe, but-eh?" Ceau was excited, to put it mildly. His face was crimsoon with alarm. He gesticulated wildly to Cynthia. “Mon Dieu, there is another hope gone,” he walled. "He would have paid, maybe. He would have paid, and now, maybe, he will have no money to pay.” . Cynthia had been standing rigid, but now she screamed, and running across the shadowy room she seized the coat of the hysterical little half- caste and shook him, hysterically. "You don‘t mean," she pleaded. "that that is Monsieur Cavendish's fishing fleet.-his entire ficet-bum- ing?"

All the horrid accounts of the drunken banquets of the Roman Emperors are writ- ten about the use of wine. The same is true of Babylon and As- syria. All these nations were de- stroyed not by distilled alcoholic liquors like gin and rum, whiskey and brandy. but by wine and beer. For it must never be forgot- ten that the process of distillation Was not known for a thousand yea;-5 after Christ. All the drunkards of the ancient world from 'Father Noah down were wine or beer drunk ards. How terrible was the curse of fermented liquor in this ancient world may be seen from the fact Buddha forbade drink to his fol- lowers in the Sixth Century, B. C. and Mohammed to those who embraced his new religion in the Sixth Century of the present era. The liquor of Mexico and South America is fermented; so is the liquor of Japan and Slam. In all those countries there is rising a strong movement against their own form of strong drink. . HEILEN B.

Now that beer is legalized in the United States it is interesting to watch the kind bf reception of- fered it. Naturally the thoughtless crowd, the hobos, hoodlums, and happy-go-luekles, are dee-lighted. For folk with huge paunches and tiny pates, for people with gross appetites and low ideals, the new- ly~opened beer-parlor will bring intense sntisfactions. Where the swinish nature has not been elim- inated from or suppressed by the human, there is a rush for the swill-pail and the hog-wallow. This was expected. But there is another reaction worth noticing. The following clip- pings from American papers tell a significant story: KANSAS CITY, Mo.-Kansas City police and firemen will not drink beer and hold their jobs. This was the edict handed down by Mr. Eugene C. Reppert, director of po- lice, and Mr. L. C. Johnson, direct- or of the fire department. Mr. Johnson said any member of the fire department found drinking an alcoholic beverage while on duty, or in uniform while off duty in a public place would be dismissed. NEW YORK-Mr. John J. Dor- man, fire commissioner, will bar the amber liquid from all buildings _'grow in such rows.

Rose beds should be kept rich and w:ll supplied with humus by annual appilgatim or well rotted bamyard manure in l'beral quan- tlties in the autumn or early in the wring. , GARDEN FOR CUTTING ` A cutting garden is one in which, flowers are grown not so much for outdoor decoration but for bouquets* There are many ways in which such 9, garden may be laid out, but' none is better than the simlllf method of sowing seeds in straight; rows, eighteen inches apart, ex-| actiy as vegetables are grown. It is surprising. how vigorously annuals appearance unplcasing. A row of tall, colorful saipiglcssis, for ex- ample, is a beautiful sight, and this is one flower which seems to thrive better in a straight row in the open sunshine than in a garden border. Annuals are on the whole best suited for the picking garden, though there are some Deféhhihls which have value; for example, the dciphinium, belladonna, coreopsis, gaillardias, shasta daisies and pyro- thrums. A list of annuals which are excellent cut flowers ' would number hundreds. Marigolds, par- ticularly the tall African type, and the tall' and dwarf French variet- ies, are outstanding cut flowers. Zinnias, stocks, snap-dragons, sca- biosa, nasturtiums, lupins, lark- spurs, dimcrphotheeas, pinks, eos- mos, ciarkias, eosmidiums, chrys- anthemums, eentaurias, calendulas, cacalias, carnations, calliopsis, Eng- lish daisies, asters and ageratum are among the best known annuals for cut flowers. _Ja- ' LAWN worm Early spring is the t'me for lawn work. Grass makes its best growth in the cool weather. Ot course where it new lawn is to be made it will be impossible to work the earth until the frost hah disap- peared completely and the soil will rot' muddy the boots. If thc earth is worked too soon it will pack and cause trouble later on. With the establ’shcd lawn, however, repairs can be started before the last snow has gore- It is a good plan in the and regulations which now reads: "Members shall not have or allow to be brought in to any department building. any beer, intoxicant or in- gredients used in the preparation `thcreof." PITTSBURG, Pa.-Students and Trustees of thc Ilnivcrsity of Pitts- burg have united lo ban legalized alcoholic beverages from the cam- pus and all college functions. Here are groups of people with a. special rcspousil-2*_’y to society barring out the newly "legalized" beverage. Governments may make alcohol lawful, but it remains just as harmful to the individual and to society. Wherever. clear heads, steady nerves, and significant choices have bo be made, booze of all varieties will be barred out. "The amber liquid" will be sought by all the careless crew; But all`the wise and worthy will avoid this devil's brew.
