Mannering! You will\nnot do it! 1 implore, I beseech you!*'\ncried Fleming with solemn earnestness.\n.Mannering quickly stripped ofl llis\ncout and rolled up his sleeves.\n\"No use, Fleming; I must. Either\nthat man or I must bo master.\nThey'll follow tho victor like sheep,\nyou'll see. It will end the trouble\u00E2\u0080\u0094\"\n\"But, Mannering, these men, these\nLascars, are adepts at the knife,\"\nurged Fleming almost frantically.\nMannering shrugged his shoulders.\n\"I learnt a trick or two when 1 wus\nin Malacca,\" he said, quickly. \"Uot\na handkerchief?\"\nFleming shook his head. Tho door\nof the Vernons' hut opened nnd Nina\ncame quickly down to them. Her\nface was white as death, her eyes\nwero liko \"tho violets steeped in\ndew,\" her lips, white as her face,\nwere set tightly.\n\"Mr. Mannering, you must not!\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nyou will not!\" She looked into his\neyes and saw that her appeal was\nhopeless. \"Then\u00E2\u0080\u0094then\u00E2\u0080\u0094thero is a\nhandkerchief!\"\nHu took it, bound his bowio knifo\nto his wrist and held it out to Fleming. Fleming hesitated; tho girl\ncaught the wrist and tied the knot\nMunnering wanted.\n\"Thanks,\" ho said, coolly. \"Now\ngo inside\u00E2\u0080\u0094and shut the door.\"\nShe obeyed; and, leuning ugainst\ntho wall as if to still her throbbing\nheart, looked between tho logs.\nMunson had bound the Lascar's\nknife to llis wrist, and the two men\nconfronted each other. The moon\nshone down on them in placid mockery of such poor stuff as human\nemotions; the soft breeze wafted tho\nperfume of tho pines across the men's\nheated breath; the sea sang to the\ngolden beach; tho delicious night was\nfull of beauty. To poor Fleming,\neven in tfiat intense moment as ho\nstood revolver in each hand, there\nflashed the lines:\n\"Where every prospect pleases and\nonly man is vile.\"\nThe Lascar's face seemed to glow\nas if with the reflection of fire; the\nEnglishman's was white and set with\nthu calm of courage and resolution.\n\"Come on,\" said Mannering; and,\nas he spoke, the Lascar sprang at\nhim.\nIf there is anything more exciting\nthan a \"knife fight,\" I do not know\nit. It is cat-like in the rapidity ot\nits movements; it is soul-thrilling in\nits moments of doubt and uncertainty; it is'awe-inspiring in its pauses,\nrushes, wrestlings. The two- men\ncrouched, sprung, caught at tho\nwrists of tho hands that hold tho\nknives, struck, parried and avoided\nthe gleuming blades by swift, almost\nimperceptible swaying and glidings\nof the bodies.\nThe Lascar was as agile as a snake\nand bent, dipped and attacked with\nsinuous force; but Mannering, though\nlacking this facility of movement.\npossessed the qualities of strength,\nendurance and the cool eye, and by\nthe exercise of these he parried the\nterrible attack.\nThe men, sobered now by the intense excitement, looked on in breathless excitement. Fleming, forgetting\nthem and clean forgotten by them,\nsuffered the revolvers to droop In\nhis shaking hands.\nAnd the girl for whom this awful\nfight wns being fought\u00E2\u0080\u0094what a presumptuous idiot I should be if 1\nattempted to set down her emotions!\nSuddenly a short cry, a gasp, rose\nfrom the men and was echoed by\nFleming; the Lascar's knife had cut\na gash in Marine-ring's shoulder.\n\"Oh, stop! stop! For God's sake,\nstop, Munnering!\" cried Fleming.\nBut neither the combatants nor the.\nother spectators heeded\u00E2\u0080\u0094they probably did not hour him.\nMannering felt the cut of the sharp\nknife, felt the blood running down\nhis shoulder and side; but he set his\nteeth and forced himself to remain\ncalm; everything depended, ho knew,\nupon his keeping his head; not his\nlife only, but the girl\u00E2\u0080\u0094the sweet, innocent girl. Ah, now he must not\nlose his head!\nHe drew back a moment, and the\nLascar, with a hideous smile, pressed on to him. It was what Mannering wanted. With a sudden swerve, a\nmovement of the lug and the strong,\nsteel-liko left arm, he threw his op-\nponent to the ground, and in an instant was on top of liim with a knee\nliko iron pressing into his chest. Ho\nraised his arm, the reflected knife\ngleamed in the moonlight, the Lascar's wavering life hung in the balances. A shudder run through the\nspectators, a cry arosu from Ninn\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nshe had como to tho d\"or. While\nono could count ten the knife poised\nabove the Lascar's heart. Then, bofore the other men could interfere,\nMannering had wrenched thu knife\nfrom the Lascar's grr.sp and flung it\nbehind him; thon hu ton. the band-\nago from his own arm and sent his\nknife flying with thu other.\nBora Ib Slam.\nIn Bla_ when a boy Is fourteen he\nbecomes a man.

It is no use trying a different\nmedicine for each disease, because they\nall spring from the same cause \u00E2\u0080\u0094 bad\nblood. To curo disease you _jusr get\nright down to the root of tho trouble in\nthe blood. That is what Dr. Williams'\nPink Pills do. They make new, rich\nblood. Common medicines only : touch\nthe symptoms of disease. Dr. Williams'\nPink Pills root out the cause. That is\nwhy these pills cure when doctors and\ncommon medicines fail. Here is positive\nproof:\u00E2\u0080\u0094\"I suffered agony from indigestion,\" says Mr. Fred Fillis, of Grand\nDesert, N. B. \"I had no appetite for\nmy meals and no energy for my work;\nmy stomach caused me constant distress\naud everything I ato lay like lead on\nmy chest. At times I felt my life a burden. I was always doctoring, but it did\nme no good. Then a little book came\ninto my hands, and I read Dr. Williams'\nPink Pills would cure indigestion. I\ngot them and began taking them, and I\nsoon found they were helping me. My\nappetite began to improve and my food\nto digest better. I used the pills for a\ncouple of months and I was well. Now\nI am always ready for my meals and I\ncan eat any thing, and all the credit is\ndue to Dr. Williams'Pink Pills. I keep\nthe pills in the house all tbe time, and\nI occasionally take a few as a precaution.\nI can honestly advise all dyspeptics to\nuse this medicine, as I am sure it will\ncure them as it did me.\"\nGive Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair\ntrial and they will cure you, simply because they make that rich, strong blood\nthat disease cannot resist See that you\nget the genuine pills, with the full name\n\"Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale\nPeople,\" on the wrappor around every\nbox.

The young take three years to\ndevelop fully, and even then the plumage is distinctly less brilliant than In\ntbe older birds. Both the movements\nand migration of tbe penguins ore remarkable. Wben first followed the bird\nprefers to walk, but when ln danger of\nbeing caught It drops on to Its abdomen and wltb the help of tbe wings\nglissades at a pace too great to be overtaken by a man walking.

C.\nFOREST TREE PLANTlNa.\nThe Forestry convention whleh has\nbeen summoned by the Premier of\nthe Dominion to meet in Ottawa in\nJanuary next calls attention to the efforts that have been made to plant\nforest trees on our western prairies.\nWhen settlement begins a supply of\nbuilding material and of fuel la one\nof the first''things thought of and\nthis question obtrudes itself prominently on the sparsely timbered western prairies. The efforts successfully\nmade to grow clumps and belts of\ntrees have shown their value not ouly\nfor the purposes mentioned but for\nshelter both to the houses and crops\nfrom cold winds of winter and the\ndrying winds of the summer. What\ncan be accomplished by the judicious\nplanting \"of forest trees for shelter\npurposes is shown by the successful\ngrowth of apples by Mr. A. P. Stevenson of Nelson. It will be of interest\nto trace the efforts made by the government to assist the settlers In remedying the natural conditions.\nIn submitting tho report of the Department of interior In 1870, ho then\nminister of that department, Hon.\nDavid Laird, stated that during bis\njourney from Fort OWT-y to QuAp-\nnelleln the summer of 1S74, nothing\nImpressed Itself upon his mind more\nthan the treelessness of a vast portion of the country over which ne\npassed. Day by dav ns he crossed\nthe wide extent of prairie utterly destitute of trees the question presented\nItself- How is the settlement of\nthese' oroides possible if the settler\ns without wood for fencing, building\nor fuel? His attention having been\ncalled to the work done in tree planting in the Western States, he Instructed the Surveyor General Col.\nJ S Dennis, to obtain all available Information on the subject. . . _.\nHon L B. Hodges, superintendent\nof tree planting on the St. Paul and\nPacific line of railway was considered one of the most competent authorities on the subject at that time\nand in making his report Col. Dennis\nappended some suggestions on tree-\nplanting ffrom an essay by Mi-\nHodge and also quoted the assertions\nmade by that gentleman which be\nthought his five yearn' experience justified Somo of these statements\nwere that at a mere trifling expense\nthe stockvard and buildings on the\nMeekest ,-i.ralrie homestead mpy be\nsurrounded ln five yenrs with a belt\nof trees forming a windbreak and affording effectual protectlou; that a\ngrove of trees can be grown ns surely aB a crop-of corn and with far less\nexpense In proportion to Its value;\nthat apparently worthless prairie\nlands can, by the planting and cultivation of the timber thereon, be sold\nfor SI 00 per acre within twenty years;\nthat the net profits of lands properly\nplanted and cultivated with trees will\nwithin ten years realize at the rate\nof ten to ono as compared with profits attending the raising of wheat.\nThe Surveyor General added that outer more forcible propositions were\nput forth by Mr. Hodge but he did not\nquote them. Sufficient has been quoted however to show how sanguine\nwere the expectations of some of the\nearly advocates of tree planting and\nhow predictions were made on theoretical premises and with very light\nexperience.\nAs a reult of this Investigation tt\nwas decided to amend the Dominion\nLands Act so as to provide for \"7or-\nest Tree Culture Claims,\" similar to\nSunlight\nSoap\nis better than other Soaps\nbut is best when used in\nthe Sunlight way.

Each applicant for entry would require to\nmake an affidavit that the land applied for was open prairie and without timber. -\nUnder this amendment 253 claims,\ncovering an area of 40,480 acres were\ntaken up during the years 1877 to\n1879, but only six entrants completed the duties necessary to entitle\nthem to patent, the last patent being\nsued so recently as the 31st August,\n1895. Most of the claims taken up\nwere ln the district along the Red\nriver, others were farther west near\nthe international boundary and some\nas far west and north as the Mlnne-\ndosa district. The claims for which\ngrants were Issued were ln township\n2, range 4, east of the 1st Meridian\ntownship 3, ranges 5 and 6, west of\nthe 1st Me|ridlan, and township\nranges 12 and 14, west of the 1st\nMeridian.\nThe reason for the practical failure\not this experiment was undoubtedly\nthe lack of knowledge of tho trees\nsuitable for growth ln the west and\nof the methods of caring for them.\nThe provision that the trees must be\nplanted not less than twelve feet\napart shows at once that the knowledge of the supposed experts was\nvery faulty. In connection with agriculture the fact has gradually forced\nitself upou the public mind that lt\ncannot be carried successfully except\nby those who have special knowledge\nof and training In It, and it is largely\nthe same with arboriculture. The\ngrower must know what to plant, how\nto plant it, and how to care for it afterwards.\nAt that time every Individual tree\ngrower had to make his own experiments, but the work of the Experimental Farms In Manitoba and the\nTerritories and of the Dominion For-\notry branch have placed matters ln a\nmuch more favorable position. The\ntrees which have been found most\nsatisfactory for planting for woodlots\nor shelter bolts are the box elder or\nashed leafed maple, the elm, the green\nash and the poplars. The poplars\ngrow fast but the wood Is soft and\nnot durable. The Cottonwood ls used\nmost of these trees. The Ruslan poplar was considered likely to be useful\nbnt has been found subject to rot.\nElm makes a good growth and succeeds well on low ground. Green ash\nmakes a good wood but grows rather\nslowly. The ashed leaved or Manitoba maple ls the most generally planted as lt grows so quickly that ln a\nshort timo a shelter bolt will attain\na serviceable height.\nBut even after selection of the\nproper species care In tno setting out\nand management are required If success ls to be attained. The land must\nbe prepared for the reception of the\ntrees and the strong grass and weeds\nthat might choke the seedlings in the\nflrst few years must be kopt down hy\ncultivation. The Dominion Forestry\nbranch provides for expert advice In\nthese respects and the prospects are\nthat the efforts now made will be successful in acompllshlng what previous attempts failed to do up to the\npresent time.\nEeitma Known\nby Intense Itching\nIf Mot Cured it Spreads and Becomes Chronic\u00E2\u0080\u0094What to Expect From\nDR.
