You Can start the story You have missed only the instalment, arnd here is a summary of that:â€" Synopsis Christabel marries Kieth Milsom. one of the staff of a city brokerage firm, and for the first year is too busy attending partizs and other events to think that she is not exactly happy. Then Kiethn loses his job, and his wife finds that they are heavily in debt. Then Kieth ge‘ts another job and things are not so bad, though Kieth is bitter because they cannot keep up their old round of parties and big times. Then Kisth meeis fienry Goring and a friendship develops. Kisth induces Christabel to help in the sale of a house to Goring on the plea that he will get part of the commission. (Now read on!) THE HOUSE AT EALING He pressed Christabel‘s hand as though she were his favourite grandâ€" daughter; bowed to Henry Goring, and tottered out. His hair was snow white, but Christa‘sel had not noticed that he was so very frail until then. MOKDAY, FEBEKUARY 2OTH, 1938 Kieth said Mr. West wanted a thouâ€" sand down for the house, though it was worth righteen hundred. Henry Gorâ€" inz agreed to look at it with Christabel. The day was Monday; on the Tuesâ€" day Kieth said to Christabel, in a casual Chris! "You‘re not to say word about it to a soul!" he said, losing his casual air with a suddon almost angry vehsmence. "Of course I won‘t." "I can‘t tell you anything about it now. IT‘ll tell you about it if it comes to anything." When she asked him about it againâ€" it was just after he had given her the keys for th> house in Ealingâ€"hs said : "Oh, I‘ve not heard any more about Miss Goring decided that she must see any house that Henry thought of buying, and she also went over to Ealâ€" ing. Christabel, in the way, would have given the keys to the Gorâ€" ings and let them go alone if she could have found a good excuse. But when they arrived at it,Christaâ€" bel really did think that the house was very pleasant; admiring it saved some awkward silences; and Miss Goring "Oh, Keithâ€"really?" She felt an immediate rush of relief and hope, at the mere thought of someâ€" thing newâ€"a new prospect in life.

It was newly paintâ€" ed and decorated insids, and the garden and tennis court were in perfect ordcr. Even Christabel, who knew very little about hourse values, could see that it was cheap at a thousand poundsâ€"which was what Mr. West was asking. "It‘s a bargain. unquestionab>ly!" said Henry. He and his sister agreed that thes might buy it. "What did Henry say about Lhe house?" asked Keith as soon as he cam> home that evening. He seemed to be trying to look as though it didn‘t interest him; and yet she felt sure it didâ€"because of the commission. She fancied. "_ _ "Oh!" was all Keith said. During the next week Christabel didâ€" n‘t se2 Henry Goring at all; then she saw him in the street and he stopped her and said: "I‘m going to buy that house!" "Oh, are you? Well I think you coukin‘t do better!" "Mind you make Keith share the commission with you!" he said, jokingâ€" ly. "It was you who sold it to me!" She laughed and made no reply. But she didn‘t think she would like to make a commission out of selling something to a friend. "They liked it. They said they would think about it before they decided what to do." CHAPTER II A JOB ABROAD Three days later Christabel forget about the prospect of commission on Henry Goring‘s house. Keith came in in the evening, in a hurry, to‘tell her that he had got a jcob in the Argenâ€" tine. The sudden realization of her hope took her breath away. . . She didn‘t question the wisdom of it. ’ ‘"When would we go?" "Toâ€"morrow morning." 1 "Toâ€"morrow." { He explained. When he told her ‘t the story sounded incredible enouzh. | The firm which was sending him wasn‘t | satisfied with the Way its Buenos Air2s | branch was being carried on. Keith had to leave immediately to investigats, and no one had to know that he was | going. ‘ | "How silly I must be!" she said to herself with a sigh. But are you sure i‘sâ€"all right?" asked Christabel, smitten with doubt, the first shadow. perhaps of awful corâ€" tainties to come later. "All right? Of cour What do you mean?" She didn‘t explain that she meant was it all respectable and above board? Keith sounded as though he would hardly have patience with such naive suspicions. "I‘ve given my word that TI‘ll keep quiet! All you have to do is to packâ€" pack and be ready to leave here at He was pale and seemed so excited that he couldn‘t keep still. "Buenos Aires," said Keith tersely Five Hundred a year."

Henry can see about the rent for us. T‘ll leave hima note with the cash in it." When she looked her surprise at his readiness, he added : "They gave me an advance." Fifty pounds." ~ He slapped his breast pocket. She didn‘s ask any more questions because she knew how h> hated her prying into his business. The hurry that night gave her no time to think. And why, then should she have suspected? What she saw in the midst of the choas of emptied draws>rs and open trunks was a new world, a future of new possibilities in a new country. Perhaps she ‘hought Keith rather unâ€" reasonable in not even allowinz her to ring her mother and say goodâ€"bye. In the faint summer morning, drviing to Liverpool Street in a taxi it came into her head to ‘phone from the station. But Keith kept close to her all the time until they got into the train. On the way to Custom House she stared intensely out at the last of Lonâ€" don, taking an unregretful farewell. At Custom House, by telephoning, they managed to get a taxi to drive them to King Gecorge V docks. Christâ€" ab>l had never been to the docks beâ€" fore. ‘The sense of adventure took her cut of herself, filled her with elation, as they wert aboard the ship, a british cargo vessel with accommodation for passengers, called the River Plate. "MRS. LORRAINE It sesemed extraordinary to her aftorâ€" wards that she should have been so conâ€" vinced of her good fortune, then, when the curtain had already risen on a trazedy of fright, shame. and inexorâ€" able disaster . . . | An hour later she siood with Keith, watching the Kentish shore slide slowly away in the fine morning. There werse no other passengers on board, but that didn‘t seem dull, only more exciting. She didn‘t feel at all ill , and at lunch, when the captain called her "Mrs. Lorâ€" raine," she was amused at his mistaks. They were on the upper deck at four o‘clock when the boat came out to take off the channel pilot; white clouds were floating over the low coast line of the England left behind, and there was a choppy â€" sea. She wanted to talk to Keith, ask him questions about South America, specuâ€" late about what they would do there. but Keith looked white and strained, and didn‘t seem to want to talik. When she remarked on it he said he felt seaâ€" sick. "It‘s getting cold," said Kelth. Let‘s go into the saloon." "You go in. I want to watch this boat come salongside. But Keith didn‘t go. There were two men aboard th> pilot boat who didn‘t look like the rest of the crew; two men in felt ts and city clothes, who held on carefuily as the boat heaved and lurched alongside. Keith drew back from the rail where they were standmg. His voice drew her attention. "I say, will you take this?" He handed her a thick, sealed snvelâ€" ope "It‘s too big to go in my pocket easily." he explained. "What have you got in it?" "Oh, just some papersâ€"instructions from the firm." ’ She closed it in her handbag. The ‘wo men from the pilot boat had come aboard, and they crossed the deck to go up to the Captain‘s quarters. Glanâ€" ing round Christabel met an inquisitive look from one of them. She and Keith leaned on the rail, while the hnoveâ€"to ship hung idle, the blue waves s.apping her sides. Christâ€" abel had no idea what was in Keith‘s mind. though afterwards she guessed. It all happened very suddenly. The two men came down from the Captain‘s quarters, the Captain with them.

He drew a breath, added a warning about anyâ€" thing they might say being used in evidence, and concluded: You‘d better get packed up to â€"come along ashore with us!" _ Magistrate Atkinson will hear eviâ€" dence in a charge of shoplifting which has been laid against the accused.

"I know nothing about this! It‘s som»e awful mistake!" The words were on her lipsâ€" Suddenly there was a terrific nolse, a reverbsrating bang, so loud that in itâ€" self it seemed to stun her. Keith, going down the ladder in of her, pitched forward. He hit the rail of the ladder â€"smackâ€"crashed down on to the deck below with a thud. Christabel screamed, nearly lost her balance on the ladder, and stood starâ€" ing down. Keith lay on the deck, his face turnâ€" ed to the sky. The detective following Christabel pushed past her and ran down the ladâ€" ader. She cowered there, the ladder under her feet, the gulls wheeling and crying in the â€"sky above . ... . â€""‘*Nos rsal!l This isn‘t real!" â€" the helpless cry seemed to ring in her head. But her body realized what her mind would not. Someone took her arm and drew her back of the ladder; she trisd to stand, staggered, and went down inâ€" to waves of numbness, silencse, darkness. "Is he dead?" asked the detsctive, who had laid her down on the deck, when the other officer came up from below . ally He tore it open, and took out a packe! of bank nctes. He flicked them overâ€" French francs, Italian lire, Argentine dollars. "And here‘s the swag!"‘ he said. He looked at Christabel, lying halfâ€" concious at his feet, and shook his head.

The toast to the ladies was proâ€" posed by the Rev. Fr. Theriault, Mr. Argalls making very clever response. The gathering closed with three cheers for Major MacLang, M. P. P., and the singing of "Auld Lang Syne." In the Advance twenty years ago much space was given to the fourth annual dog race which was to be held on Feb. 22nd, 1919. The rules of the race and particulars of the course, etc., were published, as well as the winâ€" ners in previous events. The prizes included the A. R. Globe shield, a handâ€" made whip donated by C. M. Auer, a silver cup given by Dr. H. H. Moore. and several other prives presented by the merchants of the town. There was no cash prizes for the big race, though there were small cash awards for all in the boys‘ dog races. _ The Advance recorded a particularly sad death in its issue of Feb. 12th, 1919. ‘This was the passirg away of a lad of Iabour, sixteen who suscumbed to inâ€" fAuenza. The lad‘s name was Archie smith, and his home was at Buchingâ€" ham, Que. He had been working in the bush near Timmins when he was itaken ill. He was brought :o the hosâ€" pital here, but his young life could not be saved and interment was made at Westâ€"Cobalt.

The Hollinger Mine had a record proâ€" duction in 1918, according to The Adâ€" vance twonty years ago.

Mr. Wright after touching cn the development of the North and the great wealth still here ‘o be deâ€" veloped, cast his eyes to the great future ho believed was before this counâ€" ‘ry. He said: "I can see Timmins in the next five years with a population af 35.000 and in Kirkland Lake district a city of 109,000 people, and in other undevelopead sections of the great Noarth Land ther> are bound to be many prO4â€" perous cities.

Onse newsâ€" pap>r, published at Sydney, under the date of January 1l4th, practically gives up its front page to tolling about the intense heat suffered in Sydney in the first two â€"weeks of January. "The nationâ€"wide heat wave, worst in Ausâ€" tralia‘s history., grew today to a drradâ€" ful climax of trazedy and devastation," is one stacsement in bold black type. "Victoria, most scourged of all states."] says another blackâ€"faced paragraph, "sees horror moaunting on incalculable horror.

The maximum temperatiure on Jan. 14th was 113.6 dezrees at 1.30 pm. This is said to:â€" be an allâ€"time high for the city. From this distance, it will seem to be all the harder to stand because it comes in January, of all months, mose peop!s forgetting for the moment that "Down Under" the seasons are reversâ€" ed to what they are in Canada. ‘The Sydney Sun leaves no question as to intense heat suffercd. Here are some sentences from the front page report: "All records were swept aside in Sydâ€" ney today by a searing heat wave from th> west." "After the hottest night in living memory, Sydney woke with the thermometer rising to break the reâ€" cord with 108.6 at 935 a.m. At 1.30 p.m., it was 113.6." ‘"The collapse from p.m., it was 113.6." ‘"The collapse from heat of nearly 100 persons in the city and suburbs had been report2d before in the North Land". The Advance hoped still more that high standards of living, prospsrity, education and general happiness should be kept no matter what the size of the population might be. Neither the hopss of Mr. Wright nor of the Advance tweniy years ago havi> been fully realized, perâ€" haps, but the progress at least has been encouraginczc on both sides.
