Questions and Answers on Conducted by the Canadian Forestry Association Forestry. . Questions and Answers on Parent by Canadian Forestry Association Q. Is there such a thing as a scientific fire finder used in Can- adian forestry services for the detec- tion of forest fires from lookout towers? : A. In several parts of the Domin- ion our government forest services utilize what is called the Osborne forest fire finder. This is a most interesting device mounted in look- out towers whereby the ranger in charge can quickly and exactly locate from a whiff of smoke on the horizon the position of the fire and with that knowledge can direct his men where to go. The fire finder cannot be deseribed in much detail but roughly consists of a metal dise on which is mounted a map of the district. The lookout station repre- sents the centre of the disc, By swinging the disc so that the fight- ing device is leveled directly on the fire, the observer is able to fix the location- of the trouble with pre ciseness and then proceeds to tele- phone to the rangers nearest the fire giving them instructions where to go. Q. How much of Canada's forests is denuded cach year for the manu- facture of pulp and paper? A. About four million cords are cut each year in this country, valued in the rough at forty-five million dol- lars and from which pulp and paper products are produced to the value of over two hundred million dollars More than ninety per cent. of these values is furnished by the wood of fur kind of trees of which spruce is chief, Q. .

Celia raised her Lead to answer, And then a thing incomprehensible to her happened, As she opened her lips Helene Vauquier swiftly forced a handkerchief in between the girl's teeth, and lifting the scarf from her shoulders wound it tightly twice across her mouth, binding her lips, and made it fast under the brim of her hat behind her head. Celia tried to scream; she could not utter a sound, She stared at Helene with incred- ulous, horror-stricken eyes. Helene nodded at her with a cruel grin of satisfaction, and Celia realized, though she did not understand. some- thing of the rancor and the hatred which seethed against her in the heart of the woman she had sup- planted. Helene Vauquier meant to expose her to-night; Celia had not a doubt of it. That was her explanation of Helene Wauquier's streachery; and believing that error, sh2 believed yet Is there any reliable infor: She RHEUMATISM LUMBAGO T. R.C.'s NEURITIS ws.

'olborne St., Toronto. Sold by Jury and Lovell mation as to how much of our Do- minion forests has been sacrificed to forest fires in the past century? A. Dr. C. D. Howe, head of the Forest School of the University of Toronto, estimates that from one half to two-thirds of. the forest area of Canada, or, in other words, around one million square miles has 'been burned within the past fifty-five years, Dr. Howe further estimates that the forest areas have heen so denuded of the larger sized timbers that to-day less than twelve per sent. of the land area of the country con- tains timber of the size demanded by a modern lumber mill. Dr. Howe's comment as to the effect of forest fires is highly interest- ing. He says that "of the million square miles of our forest inherit- ance that has heen devestated by fire, mueh has been burned not only once but two, three, and even half a dozen times, These repeated fires on the same area render abortive Nature's attempt to re-clothe the old burns with commereial valuable trees, Whole townships that once supported magnificent forests of pine | or spruce are now, because of re- peated burning, covered with worth- less. hrush or trees of no market value, Q. I have heard of a number of women's societies interested in pro- moting Roads of Remembrance as memokials. 'to the soldier dead. Where can we get information as to how to proceed with such Roads of Remembrance? A, The Canadian Forestry Associ- ation is prepared to help any organ- ization with shade tree planting as a war memorial. Address the Associ ation at Ottawa, another--that she had reached the terrible climax of her troubles. She was only at the beginning of them, "Helene!" eried Mme. Dauvray The maid instantly slid back into the room. "Mademoiselle she said, Celia heard the women settle their chairs about the table. 'Is madame ready?' asked Helene; and then there was the sound of the snap of a switch. In the salon dark- ness had come. If only she had not been wearing her gloves, Celia thought, she might possibly have just been able to free her fingers and her supple hands from their bonds, But as it was she was helpless. She could only sit and wait until the audience in the salon grew tired of waiting and came to her. She closed her eyes, pondering if by any chance she could excuse her failure. But her heart sank within her as she thought of Mme. Rossig- nol's raillery. No, it was all over for her. She opened her eyes, and she won- dered. It seemed to her that ther¢ was more light in the recess than there had been when she ¢losed them Very likely her eyes were growing used to the darkness. Yet--yes-- she ought not to be able to distin- guish quite so clearly the white pil- lar oppositeato her. She-~looked toward the glass doors and understood. The wooden shut has not moved," | broadened and broadened, the dabor ters outside the doors were not quite closed. They has* been carelessly left unbolted: A chink from lintel to floor let in a gray thread of light. Celia heard the women whispering in the salon and turned her head to catch the words. "Do you hear any sound?" "No." 4 a hand which touched "No." "We must gait." And so silence came again, and suddenly there was quite a rush o: light into the recess, Celia was startled. She turned her head back again toward the window, The wooden door had swung a little more open. There was a wider chink to let the twilight of that starlit dark- ness 'through. : And as she looked the chink slowly swung slowly back on hinges which were strangely silent. Celia stared at the widening panel of gray light with a vague terror. It was strange that she eould hear no whisper of wind in the garden. Why, oh, why was that latticed door opening se noiselessly? Almost she balieved that the spirits after all. And suddenly the recess darkened again, and Celia sat with her heart leaping and shivering in her breast, There was something black against the glass doors--a man. He had ap- peared as, silently, as suddenly, as any apparition. N He stood blocking out the light, pressing his face against the glass, peering into the room. For a mo- ment the shock of horror stunned her. Then she tore framtically at the eords. All thought of failure, of exposure, of dismissal had fled from her. The three poor women--that was her thought---were sitting un- warned. unsuspecting, defenseless in the pitch-blackness of the salon. A few feet away a man, a thief, was peering in. They were waiting for strange things to happen in the darkness. Strange and terrible things would happen unless she could free herself, unless she could warn them, And she could not. Her struggles were mere efforts to struggle, futile, a shiver from head to foot, and moiseless as a shiver. Adele Rossignol had done her work well and thoroughly. Celia's arms, her wasit, her ankles were pinioned; only the bandage over her mouth seemed to be loosening. Then upon horror, horror was added. The mam touched the glass deers, and they swung silently inward. They, too, had been carelessly left unboilted. The man stepped without a sound over the sill into the room.

She pressed herself against the pillar, He might overlook her, perhaps! His eyes would not be go accustomed to the darkness of the recess as hers, He might pass her unnoticed--if only he did not touch some fold of her dress. And then, in the midst of her tér- ror, she experienced so great a re- vulsion from despair to joy that a faintness came upon her, and she almost swooned, She saw who Lhe intruder was, For when he stepped into the recess he turned toward her, and the dim light struck upon him and showed her the contour of his face It was her lover, Harry Wether- mill, Why he had come at this hour. and in this strange way, she did not consider. Now she must attract his eyes, now her fear was lest he should not see her, But he came at once straight to- ward her. He stood in front of her, looking into her eyes. But he ut- tered no cry. He made no move- ment of surprise. Celia did not un- derstand it.

The bolts and the hinges would not have worked so smoothly but for her. Darkness agdin filled the recess instead of the gray twilight. But in a moment a faint breath of wind played upon Celia's forehead, and she knew that the man had parted the curtains and glipped into the room. Celia let her head fall toward her shoulder. She was sick and faint with terror, Her lover was in this plot--the lover in whom she had felt so much pride, for whose sake she had taken herself so bitterly to task. He was the associate of Adele Rossignol, of Helene Vauquier. He had used her, Celia, as an instru- ment for his crime, All their hours together at the Villa des Fleurs-- here tonight was their culmination. The blood buzzed in her ears and hammered in the veins of her tem- ples, In front of her eyes the dark- ness whirled, flecked with fire. - She would have fallen, but she could not fall. Then, in the silence, a tam- bourine jangled. There was to be a seance tonight, then , and the seance had begun. In a dreadful suspense she heard Mme, Dauvray speak, ..

She was a pawn in their game, and they used her, careless of her terror, her heauty, her pain, Then he freed from her waist the long cord whieh ran beneath the curtain to Adele Rossignol's foot. Celia's first thought was one of relief. He would jerk the cord un- wittingly. They would come into the recess and see him. And then the real truth flashed in upon her blindingly. He had jerked the cord but he had jerked it deliberately. He was already winding it up in a coll as it slid noiselessly across the polished floor beneath the curtains toward him He had given a signal to Adele stranger was even a human sie shadow now and she eould not see it. l Of course. he was stunned, amaz- | ed.

But her heart seemed to stop, and she knew that it was not only possible--it was true; he was tightening the scarf, not loosening it. The folds bound her surely. She felt the close at the back of frenzy she tried to free. But he held and finished his wearing gloves, she noticed with horror, just as thieves do. Then his / hands slid down her trembling arms and tested the cord about her wrists. There was something horribly de- liberate about his movements.
