IN WESTERN CANADA
"He Who Will and Does Work Will
Not Want."
As in tho United States It 1b said,
thnt tho Mcnuunltcs in Cannda aro
very much oppressed, and havo to Buf
fer (ram a great deal (on account of
tho War In Kuropo) and I havo been
requested to write Bomothlng about
this, I will do bo.
I camo with my parents A. D. 1874,
from Southern Hub
Does not sla to America,
Fear South Dakota, and
Oppressions. A. D. 11)07 I came
with my family
horo to Western Canada, hero wo havo
found n healthy climnte; tho arro
yields on an avcrago more and wheat
Is bettor than in South Dakota. What
concerna tho Government, up to now
we havo had a good one, have been
able to livo according to our creed and
bavo not been oppressed in any way,
and I believe: All Mcnnonites, who
live according to the fundamental be
Hcfs of tho Mennonltcs and to God's
word, as their guide, will agree with
me.
Ho, who, here In Canada, will and
does work, will not want. So much ai

Very fow farmers cultlvato the habit
of keeping careful accounts of their
receipts and expenditures, showing at
the end of tho year a balance, either
for or against. Tho farmer of Western
Canada 1b no exception to this. It is
felt if more careful book-keeping woro
resorted to thero that much better re
sults would bo ob
tained and shown.
There 1b the case
of tho Crowfoot

Acting Right or If Back Hurts or

When yon wake up with backache
and dull misery In tho kidney region
It generally means you havo been eat

authority. Meat forms uric acid which
overworks the kidneys in their effort
to filter It from tho blood and thoy be
como sort of paralyzed and loggy.
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog you must relieve them like you
relieve your bowels; removing ail the
nody's urinoua waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dizzy spells;
your stomach sours, tongue is coated,
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. Tho urlno ia
cloudy, full of sediment, channels oft
en got soro, water scalds and you are
obliged to seek roliel two or three
times during tho night.
Either consult a good, rollablo physl
clan at onco or get from your pharma
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in a glass oi
water boforo breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act lino.
This famous saltB is made from tho
acid of grapes and lemon Juice, com
bined with lithla, and has been used
for generations to clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize
acids la tho urlno bo it no longer irrt

And yet hu seemed to make no se
cret of it; and jet it did explain
his whole conduct slnco landing, as
Toyo had said.
Sho could only shut her eyes to
what must have happened, even as
Cazalet himself had shut his all this
wonderful week, that sho had forgot
ten all day in her ingratitude, but
would never, in all her days, forget
again!
"There won't bo another case," sho
heard herself saying, whllo her
thoughts ran ahead or lagged behind
like sheep. "It'll never como out I
know it won't."
"Why shouldn't It?" he asked so
sharply that sho had to account for
tho words, to herself us well as to
him.
"Nobody knows except Mr. Toyo.
and ho means to keep It to himself."
"Why should ho?"
"I don't know. He'll tell you him
elf." "Are you sure you don't know?
What can ho havo to tell mo? Why
should ho Bcreon mo, Blanche?"
Mb eycB and volco wero furlouB
with suspicion, but still tho voice waB
lowered.
"He's a Jolly good sort, you know,"
laid Dlanche, as If the wholo affair
was tho most ordinary ono In tho
world. But heroics could not havo
Irlvcn the eenso of her remark moro
forcibly home to Cazalet.
"Oh, ho Is, lo he?"
"I've always found him bo."
"So have I, the little I've seen of
him. And I don't blamo him for get
ting on my tracks, mind you; he's a
bit of a detective, I was fair game,
and he did warn me In a way. That's
why I meant to have the week " Ho
topped and looked away.
"I know. And nothing can undo
that," sho only said; but her voice
swelled with thanksgiving. And Caza
let looked reassured; the hot suspi
cion died out of his eyes, but left them
gloomily perplexed.
"Still, I can't understand It I don't
believe It, either! I'm In his hands.
What have I done to bo saved by
Toye? He's probably scouring Lon
don for me If he Isn't watching this
window at this minute!"
Ho went to tho curtains as he spoke.
Simultaneously Dlancho sprang up, to
entreat him to fly whllo ho could That
had been her first object in coining to
him as she had done, and yet. onco
with him, sho had left It to the last!
And now It was too late; ho was at
tho window, chuckling significantly
to himself; he had opened It, and ho
was leaning out.
"That you, Toye, down thero? Come
up and show yourself! I waut to seo
you."
Ho turned In tlmo to dart In front
of tho folding doors as Dlanche
reached them, white and shuddering.
The flush of Impulsive bravado fled
from his face at the Bight of hers.
" You can't go In there. What'B the
matter?" he whispered. "Why should
you bo afraid of Hilton Toye?"
How could she toll him? Before she
had found a word, tho landing door
opened, and Hilton Toye was in the
room, looking at her.
"Keep your voice down," Bald Caza
let anxiously. "Even If It's all over
with me but the shouting, we needn't
tart the shouting here!"
He chuckled savagely at the Jest;
and now Toye stood looking at blm.
"I've heard all you've done," contin
ued Cazalet. "I don't blamo you a bit.
If It bad been tho other way about, I
might have given you leas run for
your money. I'vo beard what you've
found out about my mysterious move
ments, and you're absolutely right as
far as you go. You don't know why
I took tho tratn at Naples, and trav
eled across Europo without a hand
bag. It wasn't quite the put-up Job
you may think. But, If It mnkos you
any happier, I may as well tell you
that I wob at Uplands that night, and I
did get out through the foundations!"
The insane impetuosity of the man
was his master now. He was a living
Ore of impulse that bad burst Into a
blaze.
"I always guessed you might be
crazy, and I now know It," said Hilton
Taye. "Still, I Judge you'ro not bo
crazy as to deny that while you were
In that houso you struck down Henry
Craven and left him for dead?"
Cazalet stood Kko red-hot stone.
"MIbb Blanche," said Toye, turning
to nor rather shyly. "I guess I can't
do what I said Just yet. 1 haven't
breathed a word, not yet, and perhaps
I never will, If you'll come away with
me now, back to your homo and
never gee Henry Craven's murderer
again!"
"And who may be be?" cried a
roice that brought all three face
about The folding-doors had opened, and a
fourth figure was standing between
th two rooms.
CHAPTER XIV.
Tha Person Unknown.
TIM Intruder was. a shaggy elderly
f so cadaverous an aspect that
lib face alone cried for his duath-bod;
and his gaunt frame took up the cry,
as It swayed upon the threshold In
drosslug-gown and bedroom slippers
that Toyo lnstuntly recognl7ud as be
longing to Cazalet The man htul a
shock of nlinoKt white hitlr, and a Icbb
gray beard clipped roughly to a point
An unwholesome pallor marked the
fallen features; nntl tho envenomed
eyes burned low In their sockets, as
thoy dealt with Blanche but fastened
on Hilton Toye.
"What do you know about Henry
Craven's murderer?" ho demnnded In
a volco between a croak nnd a crow.
"Havo thoy run In boiiio other poor
dovll, or wero you talking about me?
If so, I'll stnrt a libel action, nnd call
Cazalet and that lady ns witnesses!"
"ThlB Ib Scruton," explained Cazalet,
"who was only liberated this evening
after being dotnlncd a week on a chnrgo
that ought nevor to havo been brought,
as I'vo told you both all along." Scru
ton thanked him with a bitter laugh.
"I've brought him here," concluded
Cazalot, "because I don't think he's
fit enough to bo about nlonc."
"Nlco of him. isn't It?" snld Scru
ton bitterly. "I'm so lit that they
wanted to keep mo somewhere else
longer than they'd any right; thut may
bo why they lost no time In getting
hold of mo again. Nice, considerate,
kindly country! Ten years Isn't long
enough to havo you as a dishonored
guest. 'Won't you come hack for
another week, and sen if we can't ar
range for a nlco llttlo suddon death
and burial for you?' But thoy couldn't
you see, blast 'em!"
Ho subsided Into the best chair In
the room, which Blanche had wheeled
up behind him; a moment later he
looked round, thanked her curtly, and
lay back with closed eyes until sud
denly he opened them on Cazalet.
"And what was that you woro say
ingthat about traveling across Eu
rope and being at Uplands that night?
I thought you came round by sea?
And what night do you mean?"
"The night it all happened," said
Cazalet steadily.
"You mean tho night some person
unknown knocked Craven on tho
head?"
"Yes."
Tho sick man throw himself for
ward in the chair. "You novor told
me this!" he cried suspiciously; both
the voice and tho man seemed strong
er. "Thero was no point In telling you."
"Hid you seo tho person?"
"Yes."
"Then ho Isn't unknown to you?"
"I didn't see him well."
Scruton looked sharply at tho two
muto listeners. They wero very in
tent. Indeed. "Who are theso pcoplo,
Cazalet? No! I know ono of 'em,"
ho answered himself in tho next
breath. "It's Blanche Macnalr, Isn't
it? I thought at first it must be a
younger sister grown up like her.
You'll forgive prison manners, Miss
Macnalr, If that'B still your name. You
look a woman to trust If thero Is
one and you gavo me your chair.
Anyhow, you'vo been in for a penny
and you can stay In for a pound, ns
far aB I care! But who's your Amer'
can friend, Cazalet?"
"Mr. Hilton Toye, who spotted that
I'd been all the way to Uplands and
back when I claimed to have been in
Rome!"
There was a touch of Scruton's bit
terness in Cazalet's voice; and by
some Bubtlo process It had a distinctly
mollifying effect on tho really embit
tered man.
"What on earth were you doing at
Uplands?" he asked, In a kind or con
fidential bewilderment.
"I went down to seo a man."
Toye himself could not have cut and
mcasurod more deliberate monosyl
lables. "Craven?" suggested Scruton.
"No; a man I expected to And at
Craven's."
"The writer of the letter you found
at Cook's offlco in Naples the night
you landed thero, I guess!"
It really was Toye this time, and
thero was no guesswork in his tone.
Obviously he was speaking by his lit
tle book, though ho had not got it out
again
"How do you know I went to
Cook's?"
"I know every stop you took be
tween tho Kaiser Fritz and Charing
Cross and Charing Cross and the
Kaiser Fritz!"
Scruton listened to this Interchange
with keen attention, hanging on each
man's lips with his sunken eyes; both
took It calmly, but Scruton's surprise
was not hidden by a sardonic grin.
"You'vo evidently had a stern chase
with a Yankee clipper!" said ho. "If
ho's right about tho letter, Cazalot, I
should say so; presumably It wasn't
from Craven hlmself7"
"No "
"Yet It brought you across Europe
to Craven's house?"
"Well to the back of his house! I
expected to meet my man on the
river."
"Was that how you missed blm mora
or less?"
"I suppose It was,"
Scruton ruminated a V1tl, orokt
Into his offensive laugh, and checked
It Instantly of his own accord. "This
Ib really Interesting," ho croaked,
"You get to London at what tlmo
was It?"
"Nominally threotwcnty-llve; but
the tttiin ran thirteen minutes late,"
said Hilton Toyo.
"And you'ro on the river by what
tlmo?" Scruton asked Cazalet
"I walked over Ilungorford bridge,
took the first train to Uurblton, got a
boat there, nnd Just dropped down with
the stream. I don't suppose tho wholo
thing took mo very much moro than
an hour."
"Aren't you forgetting something?"
said To.c.
"Yes, I wan. It waB I who tele
phoned to tho houso and found thnt
Craven was out motoring; bo there
was no hurry."
"Yet ou weren't going to oeo Henry
Cinen?" murmured Too.
Camlet did not answer. Ills last
words had como in a characteristic
burst; now ho had his mouth shut
tight, and his eyes were fast to Scru
ton. Ho might hnvo been in the witness-box
already, a doomed wrolch
eynlcnlly supposed to bo giving evl
denco on his own behalf, hut actunlly
only baring his neck by Inches to tho
rope, under tho Joint persuasion of
Judge nnd rounsol. But ho had one
friend hy lilin Htlll, ono who had
edged a llttlo nearer In tho pniiBO.
"But you did see tho man you went
to seo?" Bald Scruton.
Cazalet paused. "I don't know.
Eventually somebody brushed past me
In the dark. I did think thou but I
enn't swear to him oven now!"
"Tell ub nhout It." '
"Do you mean that, Scruton? Do
you Insist on hearing all that hap
pened? I'm not nsldng Toyo; ho can
do as ho likes. But you, Scruton
jou'vo been through a lot, you know
ou ought to havo stopped In bod do
you really want this on top of all?"
"do ahead," said Scruton. "I'll have
a drink when you'vo done; somebody
give me a clgaretto meanwhile."
Cazalet supplied tho clgarotte,
struck a match, and held It with un
faltering hand. The two men's eyes
met strangely across the flame.
"I'll tell you all exactly what hap
pened; you can bellove me or not as
you like. You won't forgot that t
"What Do You Know About Henry
Craven's Murderer?"
know overy Inch of tho ground ex
cept ono altered bit that explained
Itself." Cazalet turned to Blancho
with a significant look, but she only
drew an inch nearer still. "Well, It
wag in tho little crcok, where tho boat
houso Is, that I waited for my man.
He never came by tho river. I hoard
the motor, but it wasn't Henry Cra
ven that I wanted to see, but the man
who was coming to see him. Even
tually I thought I must have made a
mistake, or he might havo changed
his 'mind and come by road. The
dresslng-gong had gone; at least I
supposed It wsb that by the time. It
was almost quite dark, and I landed
and went up tho path past tho back
premises to the front of the house. So
far I hadn't seen a soul, or been seen
by one, evidently; but tho French win
dows were open In what used to be
my father's library, the room was
all lit up, and Just as I got tbore a
man ran out into the flood of light
nnd"
"I thought you said he brushed by
you In the dark?" interrupted Toye.
"I waB In the dark; so was ho In an
other second; and no power on earth
would Induce me to swear to him. Do
you want to hear tho rest Scruton, or
are you another unbeliever?"
"I want to hoar every word more
than ever!"
(TO BE CONTINUKD.)
Poor Speculation.
In theory It Is good to go about shed
ding sunshlno and making two smiles
grow where ono groan grew beforo,
but In practice the pursuit Is some
times unpleasantly painful. Should
you, at the dinner table in tho board
ing houso which you infest, humorous
ly request tho waitress to fetch you a
few capsules in which to take your
butter, or Inform tho landlady that sho
does not really kcop hor boarders
longer than any other reduced gentle
woman in that part of town, but In
stead keeps them so much thinner
that they look longor, you may win a
few pale smiles from your fellow
guests, but tho mistress of the man

first with crick in small of my back.
I took Anurlo Tablets and my back
commenced to get better. I did not

what It is Intended to relieve.
