PUBLISHED BY SPECIAL ARRANGEMENT COPYRIGHT TABLE TOP pices and swallowed them. The sin touched the rim of the s2 and was quickly sped, while at his sinkâ€" ing, darkness swiftly followed. They completed their perambulation â€" under night and marked one more sign of life before the day was done,. But it was natural, though extraordinary, and man had no part in it, When off the forâ€" estal lowlands again, they saw them full of silver light, and it seemed that ten thousand flying lamps came and went, rose and fell, clustered and scatâ€" tered above the trees, Jane guessed at Jackâ€"oâ€"lanterns sprung from the hot mire beneatihi the woods; but Captain Costa explained what they saw. "These are a million fireâ€"flies," he said, "but of a size so gigantic and burning so bright that we can see them out here, Close at hand their flash might almost blind our eyes and they must be far larger than any insects known to human kind." They watched the innumerable winkâ€" ing, dancing lights until the eastern frontier of Table Top were again passâ€" ed. and then Tom and Jane, Angus and Felice descended to the saloon for biscuits and coffee before they went to their bunks. Tom considered the facts. "We can argue from this that Benny wasn‘t snuffed out while the Condor lay to and awaited his return," he said "He must hive decided to stop, and that rather knocks the bottum out of his signals if you ask me." "Why?" asked Jane. "Because if he‘s decided to stop he would have let the Condor and old Peâ€" ter Floris know his intention. He would have gone back to them with some yarn and told them that wasn‘t sailing back with them. Then he‘d have got a thousand things off the ship and made Floris stop and help him to build a cabin of some sort and probably take messages home." "In any case it doesn‘t sound at all like Benny Boss," thought Angus. "He wasn‘t the sort to maroon himself for evermore on a live volcana that might go up in smoke any day. And what was the value of his treasure on Table Top? No; I‘m sure he didn‘t leave the island again, for the good reason that he couldn‘t leave it. Even if some acciâ€" dent kept him here, other than the acâ€" cident of sudden death, what power had he td paint those signals? They must have tken a lot of doing," ‘"You mean they may not be signals, and nothing to do with Benny?" askâ€" ed Jane. He turned to get his telescope, but by the time that he brought it to them, the stars were no longer visible. Bhadows had descended over the preciâ€" pices and swallowed them. "It‘s difficult to see how they cannot be signals." admitted Angus: "but what do we know of the history of the Isâ€" land? It must be pretty ancient if we can jJudge by appearances, and other peppole may have landed and been cast away and put up the stars in hope of salvation. We shan‘t know anything more till we have explored the place. And we may not even get the chance to do that, because the glass is going down all the time, and if there‘s a tornado. Costa will make for open sea." Only Felice had nothing to say, He was quite silent and when they separâ€" ated for the night he alone slept not.

Box 1030, Kirkland Lake Hotel Torpitt Ontario‘s Beauty Spot Combining Woodland and Lake SPARROW LAKE, MUSKOK A Eden Phillpotts Felice had the bag in which he carâ€" ried his photographic apparatus ready, but no camera or tripod filled it. He was only carrying a strong spade ashore and his plan was to row himself to the land in the ships dinghy before dawn, raid the cache and get back with the spoil before his friends were waking. The watch would lower the boat from the davits and ship it again when he returned. He would then adâ€" mit an early excursicn to the shore and conceal the truth. Towards three of the morning, he rose, dressed and made the necessary preparations, Then that happened to confound him. Pardo was not the onâ€" ly wakeful man aboard that night and just as he was about to go on deck he heard sounds, found the Costa was getting his anchor and that the Iguana would soon be under way. This arrangement ruined Felice‘s pur pose but he was in a mood almost to welcome any intervention that might do that. He had long determined to secure the treasure for himself justified yet he felt prepared to submit did any trick of Providence frustrate him. Felâ€" ice found=~that he was a fatalist at bottom ind won a sort of negative comâ€" fort from tiie fact. An explanation awaited him, and the captain ignorant of Felice‘s plans, reâ€" vealed his own "I am wishful to see the signals at dawn," he said. "They can tell us noâ€" thing about anybody who is alive, but none the less I must find if anything is to be understood from them. The water is very deep to the west, so we can stand in." "If I am to get the treasure, I shall get it," he reflected, "II fate wills shall go on trying and lose no chance." He stood by Costa on the bridge and watched the first herald messengers of morning. "How‘s the glass?" he asked. "It is telling strange things, and I want to be away," answered the capâ€" tain.â€" "I have not seen such contorâ€" tions. Something tremendous is at hand tain. . "I have not seen such contorâ€" tions, Something tremendous is at hand Felice Pardo. When your business is finished, I make no stay at all. Nothâ€" ing you can say will keep me here afâ€" ter toâ€"night. There is danger abhout usâ€"not from the air but from the degp sea. Thin:s are hidden, moving out of sightâ€"treacherous things. Carlos Paz fTeels just as I feel. We must go south, or northâ€"I cane not which, but we risk the ship and our lives to loiter here upon the Line." "We are in your hands as to that." said his passenger,. "If we run away for aiwhile till the signs are safe again. then perhaps we can return later.," PBait Costa shook his head. "I do want to return. Evil things are going on here out of our sight I tell you. Man has invented the barometer to learn what he cannot know without it, and the barometer is warning us." The dawn seemed to belie these alâ€" arms. A magnificent sunrise burned iike a beacon fire on the hearth of the horizon and then the sun Cclimbed steeply into a cloudless sky. They were off the cliffs now and their topmost peaks and scarps flashed upon the morning. "We all saw them. There was no shadow of dowbt that they hung upon the face of the cliffs," he said: "and now they are gone. The hand that set them there has surely hidden them again. But what should that mean?" Light revealed a new mystery, howâ€" ever, for the great planes of the preciâ€" pices were grey and naked and unlit as yet by the sun. "The stars!" cried Costa. *‘"The two stars have vanished. They are there no longer!" Indeed no sign of them existed. "We must have imagined them, Capâ€" tain," said Felice, but the octher shook his head. The alteration to his plans created a psychological ferment for Pelice and onzse more he fell back upon a hope that the future was already designed, and that the cup he hated to drink might yet be taken from his lips. He still reâ€" solved to secure the treasure if he mitht He had pictured the signals as the work of Benny Boss, his great grandâ€" father, and considered how they had long outlasted the hands that se them there; but their disappearance showâ€" ed this dréam to be mistaken. Jane, Tom and Angus joined him on the bridge and shared in the search for the vanished signals, but Costa‘s telsâ€" scope and Tom‘s binoculars failed to discover any trace of them. They were Chbliterated and the disappearance imâ€" mossible to explain. No sign of life appeared upon the cliffs and as the sun rose a great purple shadow thrown down by the smoke brooded upon the the island heights. There promised a day of torrid heat, and Jane suggested that they should leave investigation of the gorge till later, cruise and land at the forest extremcty of the island where shade might be found and respite from the sun beneath the giant vegetaâ€" tion that grew there! but Captain Costa was impatient and anxious. His instinct foreboded ill and he desired to be done with Table Top and sail either south or north, away from it. "I beg that you will do what you are come to do." he said, "and seek the cache of which you speak in the gorge. Then, if the glass rises and I fsel myself a happier man, we can se how toâ€" toâ€"morrow locks. But there is danger here and mystery that I do not comâ€" hend. So I will ask you to go ashore this morning and satisfy yourselves as to the cache. Then we will see what th> day brings forth." "It‘s the disappearance of the stars, painted as we thought on the cliffs, that has frightened Costa," so Jane told them. "Sailors are superstitious and hate any queer happening they can‘t explain; but such a lot of things hapâ€" per one can‘t explain that it‘s no good letting them get on your nerves." They could not Ooppose him and agreed to do as he directed. "I don‘t think he cares twopence about the siznals," said Angus. ‘"We may find the reason for them, or we may not. What‘s bothering Costa are the signals from the barcmeter which mean big weather. And yet, so far, we don‘t see a sign of big weather." They found Pardo unusually cheerful before the captain‘s side. A revulsion of feeling had much lightâ€" ened his spirit for it would be imposâ€" sible to any valuables they might discover while all were working togother. He surprised them by a reâ€" turn to cheerfulness. The Iguana changed her course and presently steamed to the mouth of the sreat cleft in the coast line and dropâ€" ped anchor half a mile from shore. Morning had brought no change to the black beach, but the stream that there entered the sea still emerged from the inner gloom of the gorge and they could hear the guttural bellowing of the geyâ€" ser from which it sprang, like the snorting of scme huge biast.

"Or a human being, who might exâ€" plain his signals," thought Tom. An event delayed them a little while. The ship had been equipped with wireâ€" less, and from time to time a messago out of South America and reached them Today came news of an earthquake from Equador and certain lives volcanâ€" ges in the Northern Andes were in erâ€" uption. "Perhaps somebody has seen us and coesn‘t want us," suggested Pard>. "I might be that the signals were meant for other eyes than ours." Costa won a sort of satisiaction from the intellizence. "All is to be understood." he deoclarâ€" ed. ‘"The earth has her fit upon her, and these immense things cannot hapâ€" pen in her depths without distracting the upper air. The Line is not a healâ€" thy place for ships at such a time, and to make this blowâ€"hole from the fires beneath our port is to ask for trouble." Angus agreed wtih him, and the exâ€" plorer soon tock the ship‘s dinghy and rowed themselves ashore. The gorge gaped immediately before them, and making fast the boat, they tramped the black gritty beach, and entered it. For fifty yards it appeared to run straight into the hills, then turn abruptly westward. The place was heavily shadowed, but at the turn light fell from above indicating an apertun>. OQOverhead the cliffs bent forward, and it was clear that masses of the volzanis rock had from time to time fallen into the rift beneath them, where babblins and steaming from its secret fountain within, leapt the stream. The volumse of water was considerable, and Jane cried when she dipped her finger at the margin, for the sulphurous rivulet burnâ€" ed her. Find W. W.

There was no pulse and no marks of life, although the back of the neck was warm indicating recent death. There were no obvious marks on his face, head or hands, which were the only parts of the body exposed. Postâ€"mortem â€" examination on the body was done by Dr. Kinnear. He doâ€" scribed the condition of the organs in the body and said that the heart was enlarged. It weighed fifteen cunces rather than a normal weight of beâ€" tween ten and twelve ounces.
