"It's an old clearing we were working on three years ago. when they first started this idea. I made straight for it that first afternoon because I knew the country around there." Tony digested the information in silence. He knew roughly whereabouts the man meant, and the thought came to him that here was a chance in ii thousand. If he could make a get-away and find the boat. But he could not bring himself to ask further details of the poor devil. Even though the man had spoken of himself as be-- ing already dead he was not yeti callous enough to take him at his word and claim the inheritance. It would be too ghoulish. "Well, that gives you something to live for." he said at last, with a' forced assumption of cheerfulness. "If you can get over this lot, you've got everything ready for another attempt. And next time you may have better luck." . He heard the man stir l'ESllfSl.V., and saw the pale blur of his face: in the darkness as he rolled hisi head over on the pillow toward him. "You talk like a fool." he gasp- ed. "I'm finished, I tell you! Do you think I don't know? llve miss- ed my chance. But if you've got the guts of a louse, you'd he think- ing about having a go at it by your- self. Or are you one of the good little boys whols hoping to be made a 'trusly'?" I-le contrived to put an amazing amount of energy into the last sneer. "No, I'm not," Tony returned soherly. "And if you're willing to tell me how I can find the boat. I'm more than willing to listen. I've had one whack in the punish- Emerit squad. but I'm open to risk lanother on a chance like this." The dying man chuckled feebli. ”That's better," he said. "I'd like to think someone was going to do thwe swine in the eye, even if I'm past it myself. Well, listen You'll have in find that keg first of all. I've told you roughly where it is. It's sunk just under the sur- face of the wafer close in to the bank nearly opposite the tool hut. The stream runs into the swamp just below there, and the best way is to follow it to where the man- groves begin and then strike north along the coast. It's a hell of al trip and you'll be wading most of the time. When you've covered about six or seven kilos, you'll have to work right out to the seaward edge of the mangroves and keep your eyes skinned. There's nothing to mark the place where I left the boat for all that cursed swamp looks alike. But it's there some- where in one of the creeks. There are hundreds of them, but that's all I can tell you." It was by no means a compre- hensive description. but Tony realised that it was all he could expect. The mangrove swamps which lined the coast were utterly featureless and one might travel all day without coming upon am- thlng to distinguish one particular spot from another in the intricate network of muddy creeks and dense vegetation. "It doesn't sound too easy," I said douhtfully. Still. I ought to be able to find it if I searcli long enough. But how about the food you mentioned? That'll be spoiled by now, won't it?"

MseKAY .-E. -The people of sea View and surrounding districts were sadden- ed to learn of the passing of Mrs. John T. Macxay, on Thursday morning February 26th. The deceased had been in poor health for some time but was anble to be up and about the day previous to her passing, The late Mrs. Macxay. formerly Mary Ramsay Maiccvougan, born in Malpeque in 1867. was the daughter of the late Duncan and Barbara Ramsay MacGougan. In 1893 she married John Thomas Macxay and lived in Darnley for some time. later moving to Sea View. Her home was always open and her warm hospitality, given all visitors as well as friends, endeared her to all who had the pleasure of knowing her. She was a strong supporter of the church of which she was a faithful member for many years. She leaves to mourn one son Earle on the homestead. a.nd two daughters (Emily) Mrs. William T. Mill. Clermoni, and (Ruth) Mrs. George G. Marquis. Newion,'Mass.. and one sister. Miss Flora Mac- Gougzin, Summerside, besides four grand children and two great grand children.

"There had been two Of them. but one had been opened and sea water had got in. One could just eat the stuff, and I made a meal of it. I didn't want to open the other till I got back. I wish I had now - but that is your good luck. It was hard though! To get a chance like that -and then to miss it!" Tony was silent, having no words to offer; and after a moment the other went on: "Well. maybe I'm better off after all. I'm finished with everytliing now, and in wonii be long before I'm out of it alto- gether. Half of me is dead already and free from pain, and the sooner the nther half goes the better. Sleep - thats what I want. Years of sleep. I'm tired - tlred." . His mice had trailed away till it was barely audible. and Tony iruessod that the effort of prolong- ed speech had utterly exhausted him. He would have liked to ask further questions, but he could not bring himself to do so now. The man was obviously at the end of his strength, and it would be sheer- ly brutal to keep him talking. 139. sides. he doubted whether he had any further information to im- part. with all-new DRIVERIZED cubs ' all-new DRIVERIZED lectures FORD TRUCK DlAI.IR'5 To be continued Strange But True By F. ll.

Unlike other fish. oysters are not the same in every part of the world. British oysiciis. for example. are licrniophyroditcs! Each oyster contains both male and feniiile cells; and frequently changes its sex after Clio firsi spawning. A four-,xear-old oyster Will spawn 575.000 larvae. But of this huge progency perhaps not less than a dozen baby oistcrs may survive. Why? Because for lhe first few days the lEI'VBo drift about in the water at the mercy of every hungry fish The survivors sink to the bottom and settle on some object to which they adhere by the convex valve.

The mice were allowed complete free- dom in their cages. when the rockets spent their force, the compartments containing the animals were lowered to the earth by parachutes. Monkeys are quite the animals these days and Dr. Irnanuel Mar- ques, of the Ohicaco Medical School predicts that tranmlanting the monkey heart to hmnan beings may be tried within a year. The monkey heart and lungs would be only temporary spares to be used while the human organs were undergoing repairs. . . . such operations have been suc- cessfully performed on dogs and the doctor can see no reason whv ihe same method would not work with humans.
