XXXV— Thorpe goes to Hilda and tells her she was right—love is everything. She knows the story of his sacrifices. Reconciliation. CHAPTER XXXVI. URELY it is useless to follow the sequel in detail, to tell how Hilda persuaded Thorpe to take her money. To a woman such as she this was not a very difficult task in the long run—a few scruples of pride; that was all. "I hate to do it,” he said. "It doesn’t look right.” “You must.” she insisted. “I will not take the position of rich wife to a poor man. It is humiliating to both. I will not marry you until you have made your success.” "That is right,” said Thorpe heartily. "Well, then, are you going to be so selfish as to keep me waiting while you make an entirely new start, when a little help on my part will bring your plans to completion?” She saw the shadow of assent in bis eyes. “How much do you need?” she asked swiftly. “I must take up the notes,” he explained. “I must pay the men. I may need something on the stock market If I go in on this thing I’m going in for keeps. I’ll get after those fellows who have been swindling Wallace. Say $100,000.” “Why, It’s nothing!" she cried. “I’m glad you think so,” he replied grimly. She ran to her dainty escritoire, where she scribbled eagerly for a few moments. “There,” she cried, her eyes shining—“there is my check book all signed in blank. And I’ll see that the money is there.” So it was that Hilda Farrand gave her lover confidence, brought him out from his fanaticism, launched him afresh into the current of events. He remained in Chicago all that summer, giving orders that all work at the village of Carpenter should cease. With his affairs that summer we have little to da His common sense treatment of the stock market, by which a policy of quiescence following an outright buying of the stock which he had previously held on margins, retrieved the losses already sustained and finally put both partners on a firm financial footing. That is another story. So, too. is his reconciliation with an understanding of his sister. It came about through Hilda, of course. Perhaps in the inscrutable way of Providence the estrangement was of benefit, even necessary, for it had thrown him entirely within himself during his militant years. Let us rather look to the end of the summer. It now became a question of reopening the camps. Thorpe wrote to Shearer and Radway, whom he had retained, that he would arrive on Saturday noon, and suggested that the two begin to look about for men. Friday, himself, Wallace Carpenter, Elizabeth Carpenter, Morton, Helen Thorpe and Hilda Farrand boarded the north bound train.

CHAPTER XXXVII.

mHE train of the South Shore railroad shot its way across the broad reaches of the northern peninsula. Thorpe welcomed the smell of the

northla"hd. He "became almost eager, explaining, indicating to the girl at his side. “There Is the Canada balsam,” he cried. “Do you remember how I showed it to you first? And yonder the spruce. How stuck up your teeth were when you tried to chew the gum before it had been heated! Do you remember? Look, look there! It’s a white pine! Isn’t it a grand tree? It’s the finest tree in the forest, by my way of thinking, so tall, so straight, so feathery and so dignified. See, Hilda, look quick! There’s an old logging road all filled with raspberry vines. We’d find lots of partridges there, and perhaps a bear. Wouldn’t you like to walk down it about sunset?” “Yes, Harry.” “I wonder what we’re stopping for. Seems to me they are stopping at every squirrel’s trail. Oh, this must be Beney. Yes, it is. Queer little place, isn’t it, but sort of attractive? Good deal like our town. You have never seen Carpenter, have you? Location’s fine anyway, and to me it’s sort of picturesque. You’ll like Mrs. Hathaway. She’s a buxom, motherly woman who runs the boarding house for eighty men and still finds time to mend my clothes for me. And you’ll like Solly. Solly's the tug captain, a mighty good fellow, true as a gun barrel. We’ll have him take us out some still day. We’ll be there in a few minutes now. See the cranberry marshes. Sometimes there’s a good deal of pine on little Islands scattered over it, but it’s very hard to log unless you get a good winter. We had just such a proposition when I worked for Radway. Oh, you’ll like Badway. He’s as good as gold. Helen!” “Yes,” replied his sister. “I want you to know Radway. He’s the man who gave me my start” “All right Harry,” laughed Helen. “I’ll meet anybody or anything from bears to Indians.” “I know an Indian, too—Geezigut, an Ojibway. We called him Injun Charley. He was my first friend in the north woods. lie helped me get my timber. This spring he ’ killed a man—a good job, too—and is hiding now. I wish I knew where he is. But we’ll see him some day. He’ll come back when the thing blows over. See! See!” “What?” they all asked, breathless. “It's gone. Over beyond the hills there I caught a glimpse of Superior.” “You are ridiculous, Harry,” protested Helen Thorpe laughingly. “I never saw you so. You are a regular boy.” “Do you like boys?” he asked gravely of Hilda. “Adore them!” she cried. “All right; I don’t care,” he answered his sister in triumph. The air brakes began to make themselves felt, and | shortly the train came to a grinding stop. “What station is this?” Thorpe asked the colored porter. “Shingleville, sah,” the latter replied. “I thought so. Wallace, when did their mill burn, anyway? I haven’t heard about it.” “Last spring, about the time you went down.” “Is that so? How did it happen?” “They claim incendiarism,” parried Wallace cautiously. Thorpe pondered a moment, then laughed. “I am in the mixed attitude of the small boy,” he observed, “who isn’t wicked enough to wish anybody’s property destroyed, but who wishes that if there is a fire, to be where he can see it I am sorry those fellows had to lose their mill, but it was a good thing for us. The man who set that fire did us a good turn. If it hadn’t been for the burning of their mill they would have made a stronger fight against us in the stock market.” Wallace and Hilda exchanged glances. The girl Was long since aware of the inside history of those days. “You’ll have to tell them that,” she whispered over the back of her seat “It will please them.” “Our station is next!” cried Thorpe, “and, it’s only a little ways. Come, get ready!” They all crowded into the narrow passageway near the door, for the train barely paused. “All right, sah,” said the porter, swinging down his little step. Thorpe ran down to help the ladies. He was nearly takeu from his feet by a wildcat yell, and a moment later that result was actually accomplished by a rush of men that tossed him bodily on to its shoulders. At the same moment the mill and tug whistles began to screech and miscellaneous firearms exploded. Even the locomotive engineer, in the spirit of the occasion, leaned down heartily on his whistle rope. The sawdust street was filled with screaming, jostling men. The homes of the town were brilliantly draped with cheesecloth, flags and bunting. For a moment Thorpe could not make out what had happened. This turmoil was so different from the dead quiet of desertion he had expected that be was unable to gather bis faculties. All about him were familiar facea upturned to his own. He distinguished the broad, square shoulders of Scotty Parsons, Jack Hyland. Kerlie. Bryan Moloney; Ellis grinned at him from the presa; Billy Camp, the fat and shiny drlTe cook; Mason, the foreman of the mill; over beyond howled Solly, the tug captain; Rollway. Charley,. Shorty,

the chore boy; everywhere were features that he knew. As his dimming eyes traveled here and there, one by one the Fighting Forty, the best crew of men ever gathered In the northland, Impressed themselves In hla consciousness. On the outskirts sauntered the tall form of Tim Shearer, a straw peeping from beneath hla flax white mustache, his eyes glimmering under his flax white eyebrows. Big Junko and Anderson deposited their burden on the raised platform of the office steps. Thorpe turned and fronted the crowd. At once pandemonium broke loose, as though the previous performance had been nothing but a low voiced rehearsal. “Oh, aren’t you proud of him?” gasped Hilda, squeezing Helen’s arm with a little sob. In a moment Wallace Carpenter, his countenance glowing with pride and pleasure, mounted the platform and stood beside his friend, while Morton and the two young ladies stopped half way up the steps. At once the racket ceased. Every one stood at attention. “Mr. Thorpe,” Wallace began, “at the request of your friends here, I hate a most pleasant duty to fulfill. They have asked me to tell you bow glad they are to see you. That is surely unnecessary. They have also asked me to congratulate you on having won the fight with our rivals.” “You done ’em good!” "Can’t down the old fellow!” muttered joyous voices. “But,” said Wallace, "I think that I first have a story to tell on my own account. “At the time the jam broke this spring we owed the men here for a

“Men," cried Thorpe.

year’s work. At that time I considered their demand for wages ill timed and grasping. I wish to apologize. After the money was paid them, instead of scattering, they set to work under Jack Radway. They have worked long hours all summer. They have invested every cent of their year’s earnings in supplies and tools, and now they are prepared to show you in the company’s booms 3,000,000 feet of logs rescued by their grit and bard labor from total loss.” At.this point the speaker was interrupted. “Saw off!” “Shut up!” “Give us a rest!” growled the audience. “Three million feet ain’t worth talkin’ about!” “You make me tired!” “Say your little say the way you oughter!” “Found purty nigh two millions pocketed on Mare’s Island, or we wouldn’t ’a’ had that much!” “Fool’s undertaking, anyhow!” “Men,” cried Thorpe, “I have been very fortunate. From failure success has come. But never have I been more fortunate than in my friends. The firm is now on its feet. It could afford to lose three times the logs It lost this year”— He paused and scanned their faces. “But,” he continued suddenly, “it cannot now or ever can afford to lose what those 3.000,000 feet represent the friends it has made. I can pay you hack the money you have spent and the time you have put in”— Again he looked them over, and then for the first time since they had known him his face lighted up with a rare and tender smile of affection. “But, comrades, I shall not offer to do it. The gift is accepted In the spirit with which it was offered”— He got no further. The air was rent with sound. Even the members of his own party cheered. From every direction the crowd surged inward. The women and Morton were forced up the platform to Thorpe. The latter motioned for silence. “Npw, boys, we have done it,” said he, “and so will go back to work. From now on you are my comrades in the fight.” His eyes were dim. his breast heaved, his voice shook. Hilda was weeping from excitement. Through the tears she saw them all looking at their leader, and in the worn, hard faces glowed the affection and admiration of a dog for Its master. Something there was especially touching in this, for strong men rarely show it. Bhe felt a great wave of excitement sweep over her. Instantly she was standing by Thorpe. "Oh!” she cried, stretching her arms out to them passionately. “Oh, I love yon. I love yon all!” THX EU).

First, hardly to sleep a wink all night, second, to lie awake a long time before falling asleep; third, to fall asleep soon, waking up after several hours and then find it hard to sleep again. They mean that somewhere in the nerve fibres, somewhere in the brain' cells, somewhere In the blood vessels that carry blood to the brain, something Is radically wrong, and must be righted, or the end may be worse than death. To right it, take Dr. Miles' Nervine. Some other symptoms at nerve trouble are: Dizziness. Headache, Backache, Worry. Fretfulness. Melancholy, Lack of Ambition. They indicate diseases which may lead to Epilepsy, Fits, St. Vitus* Dance, Nervous Prostration, Paralysis, Nothing will give such quick and lasting relief as Dr. Miles' Nervine. "My husband had been sick for weeks, could not sit up to have his bed made. With all the medical help we could get he continued to grow worse. He could neither sleep or eat. Our baby girl was sent away, and all callers barred, because he could not stand a bit of talking. I read of a case of nervous prostration cured by Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine. We began giving it to him. and in a few days he was able to be dressed. From that time he steadily improved. Nervine saved his life.”— MRS. A. G. HASKIN, Freevillo, N.
