Tlie Plains of Abraham

It w*« th* testimony of the late James Oliver Curwood that there was more fact than Action in this novel; that the heroine. Marie Antoinette Tonteur, and her fierce old father lived and loved as described in the story: that Catherine Bulaln and her. valiant •on were fleah and blood of their day; that Tiaoga. Shindas. Sllve- Heels and several other of the more Important characters were not creatures of fancy; that ‘The Plains of Abraham." like his other tale. "The Black Huntflr." to which It Is closely related. Is largely a romance of life as It was lived and not as It might have been RvejeLc The author also asserted that the gathering of the material had been the most thrilling adventure of his life; the traveling foot by foot dyer the hallowed ground, the reading of letters written by hands dead a hundred and fifty years <>r more., the dreaming over yellow manuscripts written by priests and martyrs ahd, lastly, the unveiling of loves and. hates and tragedies and happiness Os the almost forgotten period embracing- the very birth of both the American and Canadian peoples, and weighted with happenings that shook the forempst nations of the earth and largely made them what they are today. The story passes through romances, adventures and other stirring phases of life In the Champlain and Richelieu regions and reaches Its finale on the Plains of Abraham at Quebec, In that historic struggle which curbed the ambitions of the French, established the ascendency of the English and drlew the first crude boundaries of the future United States and CHAPTER I —l——a sunny afternoon in May. 1«49, s <l<>g. a hoy. a num. and a woman hud crossed the oak opens of Tonteur’s hHI and were trailing toward -the deeper wilderness of the French , ird of the Riclo-lieU and Imke Champlain—the dog first the buy following, the man next, and the> woman last. It was a reversal of proper form. T<»nteur had growled as he watched them go. A fool's way of facing a savage-infested country* that had no ebd. The man should have marched at the head of his precious colupin with his long gUn ready and his questing eyes alert; the woman next, to watch and guard with him; then the boy ahd the dog. If such nuisances wcro to be tolerated In travel of this kind, with evening coming on. Tonteur was the one legged warrior seigneur from whose gristmill down In the valley the four were going home. His eyes had followed the woman with a subdued and appraising hunger In them. Henri Bulaln was a strange man, he had thought. He be a little era A. might even be a fool. But •he wah also a very lucky husband I.to a Woman with the sweet fye and form and the divinely chaste heart of Catherine, his wife. Jeems was ■''fortunate boy to have her for a mother. . J .

( Tonteur was first of the long string of heroic fighting barons settled (by France along the Richelieu to hqld the English and their red barbarians hack. He was Ihwrkeeper to the waterway that led straight to the heart of New France. If the English came with their scalping fiends, the Mohawks and the Senecas, they woijld have tn pass over him first of all. Nq general could be given greater distjnc-‘ tion than that. Honor. Wealth. A wide domain over which he was king. And yet— He envied Henri Bulaln. • •••••• It was midafternoon. Maytime shadows were growing longer toward <thv east. It was the hour when birds were singing softly. Morning had heard their defiance, a glorious Imml fearless challenge of feathered minstrelsy to ail the spirits of darkness; but with late afternoon, sunset, evening. these same slim throated song ,st era found a note of gratitude ahd of prayer in their chastened voices. Flowers crushed underfoot. In the open spaces they carpeted the ear|h with white'and pink and blue. 'Floorers and filrds and peace—a world filled with a declining sun—a smiling heaven of blue O'er the treetops*and withe them a dog. a boy. a man. and a wonuin advancing westward. Three of these, even the dog. Tonteur envied. This dog had a name Which fittM him, Tonteur had thought. For be was a wreck of a| dog—even more -a wreck than the splendid seigneur himself. with his stub of a shot-off leg and a breast that bore sword maria which would have killed an ordinary man. The dog. first of all. was .a homely dog. so hopelessly homely that one could not help loving him at sight. His hair was bristly and unkempt His paws huge. His tail was half gone, which left him only a stub to wag. He walked With a limp, a heavy,, never-failing limp that, seemed io shake his long body from end to end. for his left fore paw—like Tonteur’s foot—was missing. A crooked. cheery, inartistic, lovable dog to whom the woman—in a moment’s visioning of the fitness of things—had given the name of Odds-and-Ends. So Tonteur was half right in thinking of him as a wreck of a dog. but In one other thing he was wrong. Tbe dog did have a soul—a soul that belonged to the boy. his master. That soul bad a great scar seared upon It, by hunger and abuse in an Indian camp where Henri Bulaln had found him four years before, and from which, out of pity for a dying creature, he had taken him home to Jeems. It was a scar cut deep by clubs and kicks, a wound that bad never healed and that made the dog what he was—a tireless and suspicious hunter of scents and sounds tn tbe woods. ( Os the four who were filing westward. he seemed to be the only one who watched and listened for danger to come out of the beauty and stillness of the world about them. Now and then be glanced np at his master. Trouble lay In the boy’s face and eyes, and the dog yensed It after a little and whined In a questioning way in his throat.

One would have known the dog and the boy belonged together even had they been in a crowd, for if Odd was a battered old warrior, the boy. on the other hand, gave every evidence of an ambition to achieve a similar physical condition. "Why, lie’s dressed up like a bold, bad pirate come to abduct my little girl and hold her for r&nsotn.” Tontehr had roared, down in the valley, and Jeems’ father had Joined the baron in Ids laughter: then, to make the thing worse, Tonteur had turned him round and round, slowly and apv’ MX The Man Should Have Marched at the Head of Hi* Precious Column. prnisingly. with lovely little Marie Antoinette looking on. her dainty nose upturned In patrician disdain—and with l*aul Tache. her detestable cousin from the great city of Quebec. openly leering and grlpuicing at him from behind her back. And this after be had prepared himself with painstaking ■ are f.>r .Marie Antoinette's eyes should she happen to see Idm! That, was the tragedy of.it. lie had put »n his new doeskip suit. He carried a gun which was two Inches longer than himself. A big powderhorn swung?" nt his waist, in his belt was a knife, and .over his shoulder hung the most treasured of his possessions, a slim ash bow and a quiver filled with arrows. He hnd worn his coonskin cap of fur in spite of the warmth of the day, because It, looked better than the lighter one. which was stripped, and in this cap was a long turkey feather. Odd. the dog. was proud of his martial-look-ing master, but he could not understand the change that had come over the boy. or why he was going home with such a strangely set and solemn face. Fr<>m her position- behind the do", the boy. and the man. Catherine Bulain looked upon her world with a joy ous and unafraid pride. No boy. in her opinion, could equal Jeems, and no man her husband. One could see and feel her happiness, and as Tonteur secretly built up the fire of his yearning when he was alone, so she loved to ekult in her own possessions when her men folk were ahead and could not see ail that came and went In her face. This desire to hold within herself, some small and sacred part of her rejoicing was because she was. Eng lish and not French. That was why Daniel James bad an English name, inherited from her father,] who had been a New England schoolmaster and afterward an agent of the Penns down in Pennsylvania. It was on the frontier of that far province that Henri had found and married her. Tonteur was aware, possibly even more than Henri Bulaln. that Catherine’s adoration of her men folk and of everything that went with them, even to the primitive discomforts of

Tendency to Drop Use of Solemn Word “Death”

The word "translation.” in Its sense of the removal of a person to heaven concerns such removal of a mortal body In life, as the “translation" of Enoch. “Transition" is pass. .go from one place, or condition, or action to another: as in biology. Hie change of a tadpole to a frog: or In geology, of one formation Into another; or a change from heat to cold. Neither the word "transition” nor the word “translation” ought to he used In a letter of condolence. The correct word to use Is unquestionably “passing." which is defined as "a golmr away’; departing; hence, dying"; from the verb to pass, “to go beyond recognition by the senses; to depart from life." In which case the verb Is followed by away, as In the sentence,” “All earthly things Lure* for Collector* The objects - of the modern collector's quest are often, to the layman, inexplicably curious.* An Item which was sold at auction only recently. and found a ready purchaser at SBSO, was the traveling organ which James 11 used for his chapel when encamped on Hounslow Heath. Among the objects lately sold at Sotheby’s were such unusual treasures as . a Sixteenth century German woodman’s hatchet, complete with maker’s marks, and what might, to the uninltiate. appear to be a blunt steel papier with tbe half-length figure of a girl as handle. It is actually, however, that great rarity, an official measure of tbe king’s alnager, an ancient functionary whose duties were to Inspect and measure doth. His office was abolished in tbe rdgn of William IIL— London MalL

the wilderness life which had claimed her, was built up against a background of something more than merely being the mate of a man and the mother of a son. Culture and learning and broadness of vision and thought, nurtured in her first by. a gentle mother, and. after her death, developed and strengthened by a schoolmaster father, had given to her a medium of priceless value by which to measure happipess. Because of her adroitness in sash lonlng beauty -and perfection out of simple and inexpensive things, and also because she was of the spawn of the despicable English,. Madame Henriette Tonteur had come to regard her with much the same aversion and dislike with which she would have looked upon a cup of poison. Tonteur knew this .and cursed in his honest heart at the woman who was his wife, with |er coldly patrician face, her powdered hair, her Jewels and gowns and her platonle Ignorance of then thanked his God that little Marie Antoinette was growing less like her with each day that passed over her pretty head. For Marie An tol nett e was tempest nous, likd himself,, a patrician without doubt, hut with a warm and ready passion to offset that curse, and for this. too. he blessed the fortune which in one way had been so kind to him. Behind her husband and boy Catherine hnd been thinking of Tonteur and of his wife, the aristocratic Henriette. For a long time she had known of Madame Tonteur’s hatred, but it was not until, this afternoon that the other discovery had come to her, for. in spite of his most heroic efforts, Tonteur had betrayed himself when suddenly she had caught him looking at her. Catherine bad seen the shad■iw of his secret—like a ghost swiftly disappearing. Up oyer tbe hill she had added many twos and twos together, until, tn the sure way of a . woman, she knew what Tonteur was thinking and did not fear qr distrust him for it. And Madame Tonteur haled her. Disbelieving whatever good might have been said of Catherine, she hated her first ns a deadly enemy of her rm e. ( and. hated her then because she dared / ’ r head qs proudly as a baron’s Zidy. and hated her last of all because, nothing ni<>re than the wife Os a worthless backwoodsnihn like Henri Bulain, she was impudent enough to be the prettiest woman Anywhere near the Tonteur seigneurie. And. so far as It was In her power, she had planted and nurtured this hatred to. growth In tlie heart and mind of her proud daughter. .Marie Antoinette, until Tonteur. blind to the feline subtlety of -a woman In such matters, wondered'why It was that his girl, whom he worshiped above all other things on earth? should so openly display unfriendliness and dislike whenever. Jeems came to Tonteur manor. • Os this same thing Jeems had been thinking as he walked ahead of his father and mother. His mind, at present, was busy with the stress of fighting. Mentally, and physically in a way. he was experiencing the thrill of sanguinary battle. Half a dozen times since beginning the long climb over Tonteur’s hill he had choked aqtl beaten Paul Tache. and in every moment of these mental triumphs Mqrie Antoinette looked on with wonder and horror as he pitilessly assailed and vanquished her handsome young cousin from the nig city of Quebec. Even In the heat of these vivid imaginings. Jeems was sick at heart, and it was the shadow of this sickness which odd caught he looked up into his master's eyes. From.the day Jeems had first seen Marie Antoinette, when she was seven and he was nine, he had dreamed of her, and had anticipated through weeks and months the Journeys which his father permitted him to make with him to Tonteur manor, on these rare occasions he had gazed with childish adoration at the little princess of the seigneurie and had made her presents of flowers and feathers and nuts and maple sugar and queer treasures which he brought from the forests. These tokens of his homage jiad nev.-r served tb build a bridge across the abyss which lay between them. (TO BE CONTINUED )

Among other words are. decease, demise, departure, and desolation.— Literary Digest. Cairo Ancient City Tlie birth of a continuing city on the site now occupied by Cairo probably took place about 525 B. Q, when a town called Buhylon was founded, presumably by emigrants from Babylon in Mesopotamia. The Romans added to Babylon by building a fort there and making it the headquarters of a legion. The town and fort were captured by lhe Mohammedan Invaders ip 641 A. D. Touching the old site, the victorious Moslems built a new capital. El-FostaL Although other nearby cities became in turn the Moslem capitals. El-Fostat probably continued to exist. A part of Old Cairo today occupitw its site, says a bulletin of tbe National Geographic society. Life of a Sponge Sponges live their own lives and eat their own food as other animals do. The separate existence of a sponge begins when a tiny particle, after being whirled about for a time by ocean tides and nirrents, eventually attaches itself to a piece of rock, and from that home it seeks Its own livelihood. The food of Infant sponges consists of yolk cells, which contain a form of nourishment. Later, as the sponge grows. It requires something more solid, and this is brought in by the currents.

Improved Uniform International Sunday School ' Lesson’ (Bv REV. P. B. FITZWATER. D. D.. Member of Faculty. Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) (SV IS3I. Western Xr-vnoetw Union.’ Lesson for February 15 JESUS THE FRIEND OF SINNERS LESSON TEXT—Luke 7:36-50. GOLDEK TEXT—This is a faithful saying, ana worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. PRIMARY TOPlC—Jesus and Those Who Do Wrong. JUNIOR TOPIC —Jesus and Wrongdoers. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —Jesus the Friend of Sinners. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPlC—Jesus Transforming Sinnerg. I. A Penitent Woman’s Act of Love (vv. 37.38). 1. The place (v. 37). It was in the home of Simon, the Pharisee, while Jesus was sitting at meat. When she knew of Christ’s visit in this home, she came to lavish upon him her.affections. 2. The act (v. 38). She washed Jesus’ feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. Through some means she had heard of Mie pardoning grace of Jesus Christ and God had opened yer heart to receive Jesus as her personal Savior. 3. Who she was (v. 37). Her name is not given. There is no good ground for assuming that she was Mary Mag(Jalend. The implication is that she was of a notoriously bad character. Though known to the public as a bad woman, something had happened which transformed her. She was a saved sinner because she believed on Jesus Christ. 11. The Pharisee's Displeasure (v. 39). Simon felt scandalized by such a happening at his table. He was a respectable man. For Jesus to tolerate such familiarity on the part of a Woman of such evil repute greatly perplexed him. Though he believed in Jesus enough to invite b in -to dine with him, he questioned within himself as to whether, after all, he was not mistaken. He reasoned if Jesus were a real prophet, he would have known the character of this womar. and would have either withdrawn hi/ feet from her or thrust her back with them; Or if he kne’T her diameter, his tofnrance o. such familiarity proved that he was not a good man. 111. Jesus Teaches the Pharisee (vv. 40-50). He taught him by means of the parable of a creditor am :>o debtors. It is to be noted that Jesus made it very clear that he not only knew the woman but knew Simon also. 1. The common debt (v. 41). The woman was a sinner—so was Simon, though he was not the same kind of a sinner that she was. There were two debtors, though the one owed ten times as much as the other. This is still representative of all sinners. The Bible declares all to be sinners, yet recognizes degrees of guilt. Full credit ought to be given to the man who is honest, virtuous, generous, and kind, yet such a life will not sectfre entrance into heaven. Much harm has been done by even evangelical preachers through failure to recognize the essential differences in human character. On the other hand, the Savior’s words are a severe rebuke to the respectable Pharisees who are sitting in judgment against sinners of a coarser type. 2: The common insolvency (v. 42). “And when they hao nothing to pay.” Jesus freely granted the difference in the degree of the woman’s sins and those of the Pharisee, hut drove home to him the fact that they were both debtors and had nothing with which to pay (Rom. 3:2.‘>). As sinners we may quit our sinning and hate our deeds but that does not make satisfaction for the sins of the past. What we have done is Irrevocable—it ha* passed from our reach. Every transgression shall receive just recompense of reward (Heb. 2:2). We must come to our Redeemer, the Almighty God, and acknowledge our insolvency and accept the kindness of Jesus Christ who bore our sins in his owh body on tiie tree (I Pet. 2:24). , 3 The relation of forgiveness and love (vv. 44-50). Simon’s reluctant answer to Jesus’ question showed that he got thv ?uint of Jesus’ teaching. In order to make his, teaching concrete. Jesus turned to the woman, calling Simon’s attention to what she had d«»ne in contrast to what he had done. Simon had neglected to extend to Jesus the common courtesies of a resj>ectahle guest, but this womin had liiVi.-hed upon him her affections and gifts. The measure of one’s love is determffced by the measure of the apprehension of sins forgiven. The one most forgiven will love most. Frequently tlie worst sinners make .the best sainlp. An Hour for Meditation Tlie opportunities of study, of thought, of meditation are easier for some of us to win than for others; hut there are few who cannot redeem from baser uses some time for such occupations if their hearts are set upon them. M»ny of us, doubtless, would be far better off if we would sacrifice much that we now highly value for a quiet hour now and then with our. better selves and the great Companion. —Washington Gladden. Surrender to God Not in husbanding our strength, but in yielding it in service; not in burying our talents, but in administering them; not in hoarding our seed in the barn, but in scattering It; not in following an earthly human policy, but in surrendering ourselves to the will of God, do we find the safe and blessed path’—F. B. Meyer. In the Name of Christ When I learn to go with the same confidence to the bank of glory, in the name of Christ, that I can go to tbe bank in your city in the name of one of your millionaires, then I have things that I ask of God.—Bishop Simpson.
