"You were willing enough to form an alliance." ‘"‘That is finished. I resume my command." Mason drew his pistol, "Stay where you are," he snapped. A man bent on murder makes disconâ€" certing company, Conditions in the house were becoming unbearable. Ellendorf showed his true colours.

The causes of both these forms of intense itching are often difficult to locate but what you do want, at once, is relief from the severe and depressing itching. There are two forms of itching which arae especially distressing. â€" First pruritis vulvacâ€" from which only women suffer and second pruritis aniâ€"itching at the rectum from piles, pin worms or varicose veins. Relieved quickly by this Medicinal Ointment Nothing untoward occurred during these preparations. Silence reigned cver the western shore, so Ellendorf and Martin had presumably been weolâ€" comed back to the fold. "I say!" Muriel exclaimed excitedly. "Do you see what I see?" "Anyway we shalll have to vacate the cottage." s "Agreed!" "Can you climb?" Mason looked hurt. "I‘m not a cenâ€" tenarian" he retorted. "The cave I have in mind is difficult to get to." ‘"Lead on!"

"From what I know of McFergus and Ogilvie, it would take more than tha: to hold the m back." Hugh sprang a shock. *"*Now we‘re ready for the real dirty work," he said "The weather is favourable." "Convincing a pair of hardâ€"headed Scotsmen that I hadn‘t got bats in the belfry. We‘re to expect them at 12â€"30, unless Ellendorf gets his blow in first." "They‘ve been ominously quiet," "Probably not caring two hoots for us. Taken by and large we aren‘t an apparent menace," "Maybe he will," the mate conceded "It‘ll no‘ be so hard on the flow." "About halfâ€"past twelve, skipper?" "T" will no‘ be dark much before." "Righto! be seeing you!" "And I don‘t hold wi‘ Yankee slang, foreby." here." A lowering sky and freshening wind preluded storm. Heavy rain fell during the evening. ported "As mucky a night as we‘ve had a the summer." the skipper corrected, "Favourbale for our purpose." "And what would that be, mister?" "No‘ in this rattletrap"‘ Ogilvie proâ€" tested. . McFergus thumped the hatch with a fist like a shoulder of mutton. "We can. do that," he said. "Mr. Ogilâ€" vie will take a turn at the oars." "I will no‘." "Mr. Ogilvie will leave his rattletrap engines and row, like he did when it was needful tae get awa‘ from a lassic at Oban." Hugh grinned and slipped overboard His return to the island was uneventful, "Where in the world have you been?" Muriel asked. McFergus abstracted a match , struck it, and got the tobacco burning to his satisfaction before replying. "Mallow," he repeated "Ambrose Mallow." "Dq you know him now?" "Ave, unco‘ well! Owes me three shillings and a ha‘penny." McFergus brooded darkly upon an injustice far greater in his apparent estimation than piracy on the high seas, "We‘ll come wi‘ ye," he decided. Hugh cheered up. *"See if you can get back out of sight," he advised., "After dark come in quietly . . ." "Are we spending the remainder of the day in your cave?" "I think we‘ll risk being unmolested TO CAPTURE THE Uâ€"BOAT The skipper rammed black twist into his pipe, rattled a box of matches, and reâ€"entered the discussion. "And ve ha‘e it there‘s a traitor in tow wi‘ them?" Hugh shook his head. "Lieutenant Ellendorf says he avoids killing," he said. "Ambrose Martin! Mallow is his correct name." "He‘ll no do that from yon. side of the isle." "Ah, then you‘ll help us?" ‘"TDr. Hunter . . .‘ "To hell with Dr. Hunter." "Ah‘ll ha‘s no foul language on imy boat mister," "Very well, T‘ll be off." i The mate gripped his arm. "No‘ so fast," he exclaimed. *"The skipper may be sceptical, but I presairve an apen mind. â€" They do say a Uâ€"boat has sunk shipping, though never a survivor has been saved. Sounds like your mon." no harm while ye tek a holiday." "But, I tell you, the German subâ€" marine is there, and the Masons. _ All I hope is that Ellendorf h,‘snt seen your boat,." "Ye maun come wi‘ us," MaFergus insisted. *"Wi‘oot delay. Dr. Hunter will ken how to treat it." ‘"Don‘t you believe me?" "Och, aye! . The birds will g£ome tae Presenly the tale poured forth abridged but sufficient to make his hearers eyves goggle. "Funny things are taking place on Ovarn.‘" Hugh found it difficult to conâ€" tinue. The facts were so preposterous that McFergus might well suspect that the isolation had affeced his brain, McFergus‘s ripe Doric accents were music to his ears "Could ye no‘ wait ‘t1} we landea? Ye didna seem sae pleased wi‘ veesitors ten days since." Keeping the boat in sight was awkâ€" ward, and he changed to an overatm stroke, Though slower, it had advanâ€" tages. "Help me aboard." He wrapped a coat about his dripping body. ‘*No, don‘t go on!" "Losh, mon, ye‘re no asking for a pleasure cruise?" ‘"Motor boat it is," Masoin confirimed. ‘"Not exactly a sail, but a sight for sore eyes." "We‘re saved." "Another exaggeration, That engine is sure to be heard by the Jerries." ‘"‘Take Muriecl indoors and keep her there." "What‘s the idea?" . Even as he spoke Hugh was divesting himself of his more cumbersome garâ€" ments. _ Plunging into the water he settled down into a steady trudgeon. Once clear of the tiny harbour, choppy conditions were encountered, but he continued to make headway. "KH," her faher replied, ‘you are gazing longingly at canned grape fruit, we see it all right, but we can‘t take it with us." "Over there,. A sail!" Hugh shaded his eyes. ‘"Great Seot!" he almost gasped,. "McFergus." Considering that they had been busy packing while she kept watch, the quesâ€" tion was superifluous. "Is he no‘ a German?" "Yes! Yes, of course he is." "Then he‘s a liar." on the rough side," Mason re« THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO The skipper leaned over to pass a rope round a metal staunchion, while Muriel placed fenders in position, Ogilâ€" vie spat on his hands, helped himself to a crowbar, and handed similar weapons to Hugh, Jessop, and Mason. _ ~**Now?" "Now it is!" They sprang iughtly on the slippery deck of Licutenant Baldur von Elenâ€" dorf‘s evilâ€"starred submarine. (To be continued.) "‘There she rides," McFergus whisâ€" pered. Hugh peered into the night. The Uâ€"boat was at anchor a hundred yards from the shore, her dark hull outlined by the breakers. ‘"Gently does it!" â€" gilvie swung to broadside, eased his oars, and barely lost a flake of paint in the faint scrape that signified they were at the crucial stage of he venture. President T. â€" F. King, of the board of trade, backed by a large deputation of business men and ratepayers, apâ€" peared before the Timmins town council to ask for the paving of the main business streets of the town. President King said the town engiâ€" neer estimated the work at $50,000.00 and the cost could be spread over a yearly outlay of less than the cost of patchingâ€"and repairing, He pointed out that the roads had already cost $20,000.00 with nothing to show for it. Chas. Pierce, D. Ostrosser, J. W. Reed, E. G. Dickson and others spoke in favour ot’;é the paving. The mayor, Dr. McInnis and Councillors F. M. Walâ€" lingford and E. L. Longmore favourâ€" ed â€" the plan, and Councillor Charleâ€" bois was agreeable if it did not raise general taxes. J. P.. Bartleman sugâ€" gested the plainting of shade trees at the time of building the paving. Councillor Drew referred to the yearly loss to merchants through the dust nulsance. The proposal of Chairman Drew of the Fire and Light Commitâ€" tee to purchase a $3,500.00 motor truck was lost on the casting vote of the mayor. With _ Councillor Longmore and Bacon «@gainst, a motion was Ogilvie grumbling continuously, rowâ€" ed ~the cumbersome craft some two miles from land, tended the engines until they were opposite the westerly base and finished up with a miraculous feat of oarmanship. Rowing was an axuiliary surce of motive power inâ€" tended only for emergencies. The tide was against them, and the waves were now running high. "If you can come in once without a sound you can do it again. Not here, but on the west side where the German submarine is enchored. My idea is that only a skeleton crew will be left McFergus was quicker on the uptake thanr his mannerisams suggested. "Five of us should suffice," he observed, "Six," Muriel chipped in. ‘"Five men lassie. Ye dinna ken what‘s afoot." That concluded the argument. Mason knew his daughter. Wherever he nad sailed in the Eider Duck she had taken the roughn with the smoothâ€"and there had been plenty of he#ic interludes, though nothing so daring as the avowed objective of capturing an enemy subâ€" marine had figured in her wildest dreams.
