As soon as the sergzeant had ridden off, Corneille set out on horseback for the lands to call in his plough boys for the hunt. Channing left for Campâ€" sie to collect his lab>r and Adheâ€" mar and Malrsolm went to their reâ€" spective rooms to fill pouches. When Corneille came back Malcolm‘s norse was saddled, and the second stage of the search had begun. Taking the road as their guide, they struck off on either side, searching every scrap of ground where an inâ€" jured man might have lain unseen. But the scarch thas morning was a fruitless as that of the night. It was after rejoining each other on the road far beyond van Stellen‘s farm, tha they had to admit there was no point in goinz farther, and they started Dack ‘ogether,. riding in silence along the road. They had passed chrough the gate which they had found open during their search in the night, and now, in sight of van Stellen‘s homestead, they were riding towards the deep spruit near the Campsie boundary. "What can have happened to him?" said Corneille for the hundreth time that day; then before Malcoln could ‘ry co assure him, he had urged his norse into a canterr and was riding O @ssure Nilll, 111C didU i ztU is norse into a canter and was riding towards the figure of a native, who was crouchinz on the ground close to the road where it dropped irio the spruit. As they approached the man rose. It was Maraka, who had apparâ€" ently found reason to forsake his culâ€" inary duiies for the second time that morning. Corneille hailed him in sesuto. "Lc© the Baas come see," replied Maraka,. and thore was something in his voice which mads both Malzcolm and Corneills scramble down out of their sad‘os and hasten towards him. CHAPTER VI sOME SUSPICIOUS SPUR MARKS "What is it?" asked Cornelille as soon as they reached Maraka, and the native. in whom the dramatic insinct was prcdominanf’-. merely pointed to the ground at his feet and said: "LOook, BAAS. On the beaten footpath, wh surface had been sweprs clea On the beaten footpath, whose dusty surface had been sweprs clean by the shower of the previous af ernoon, were two small but cleanâ€"cut depresâ€" sions, close together, side by side.

"No. Baas, Maraka him finish lookâ€" ing at the road, the spruit and the cave. Maraka him find no spoor." "Have vou been to Baas van Stellen‘s him fcet nou "Well, we must do so at once."

THEK PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO There has just come to our notice a case of grand relieft from severe rheuâ€" matic pains The seriousness of the man‘s condition and the step that led to his ultimate recovery, are described in the following letter:â€" "For several vears I suffered from rheumatism. I had all my teeth out, and still suffered. A year ago I lay in hospital for fourteen weeks, almost crippled. When I got home I continued to take medicine, but began to go down again. A friend of mine asked me to try Kruschen Salts, and I am very pleased to be able to say I have been on the mend ever since."â€"H.P, Two of the salts in Kruschen are the most effectual solvents of uric acid known to medical science. They swiftly dull the sharp edges of the crystalsâ€"the cause of pain and stiffnessâ€"and often convert them into a harmless solution, which is then expelled through the natural channels. Improved Greatly When He Tried Kruschen which h arossed wWisnhned thinkii "Let the Baas," he said, with that extraordinary humility which he asâ€" sumed when his opinion clashed with that of a superior, "lie down on him groundâ€"so," and he promptly lay prone on the ground. *"See, Baas, Marâ€" aka him plerty tired and little bit sick, and him can‘t hold him feet up â€"him fall over soâ€"one to one side, and one to other side, Maraka him can‘t sleep with feet straight up."

Starrat, president of the Starâ€" ratt Airways and Transportation Co., who was in Toronto last week disclosed some pariiculars of a brave mercy flight recently made by one of the company‘s pilots. This pilot was E. J. Crann, and he risked his life to do an errand of mercy. Conditions were not at all propitious for flying, but to Pilot Crann that did nat seem to make any difference. All he seemed to be partiâ€" cularly interested in was the fact that an injured miner at the Uchi Minc should be brought out ¢o Sioux Lookâ€" out for treatment. If ho was not takâ€" en out, he was fated to suffer very seriously and also likely to lose his life. It was a case of it being necesâ€" sary to make the flight to save a man. Difficulties simply had to be overcome. That is the way the airmen look at it. That is the proven attitude. of the airman of the Porcupine Camp, as well as of the Red Lake and other areas. The situation accordingly amounted to this, that though the conditions were distinctly unfavorable the injured man had to be flown to Sioux Lookout. Accompanied by D. S. Atkinson, opâ€" Air Pilot E.
