The arctic' had yieWed up iti Ion
soorht secret as to theUocatlon of the
magnetic pole. The.OftUierine' bad
returned, but of the twenty-nine who
Lad called In her the year before only
fifteen returned." And lieutenant An
drew led them; for Captain Scovllle
bad died In a enow creTlce.
Andrew and Scovllle ,hnd ' been
alone at the time of the disaster, ex
cept, for an Eskimo, , who had been
broufihi back: .to New York. . These
three; bad been separated from the
rest of the party by forty miles of ice
and ' snow. Lieutenant Andrew s and
bis boy' returned to the ship, and the
lieutenant reported the catastrophe.
Help had 'been Impossible. Scovllle
bad slipped, over the edge and fallen
under an avalanche of snow, a hun
dred feet beneath.
It became known that Catherine
Maynard had been .sought In mar
riage by the' captain and the lieu
tenant also.. Whispers flew, suspicions
grew. Instead of the reception such
as a hero- should receive. Lieutenant
Andrews was robbed of his trluanph
and shunned by .all. They said that
be bad killed Scovllle.
Andrews' knew what was said, but
be bad his duty to perform. He car
ried the news to Catherine.
"fls slipped on the very ed?e of the
precipice," Andrews explained. "In an
Instant be was gone, down the sheer
rocky sides of the mountain. He was
kHled"lnstantly, and burled under the
snow. Rescue, was impossible."
I know." said Catherine Muynard.
" holding out her bands to him. "You
could have, done nothing."
Andrews knew , then that she had
beard the rumors.
"I cannot ask you what I should
wish to ask until I have cleared my
self, be said sadly, and vent away.
He was a" dishonored roan. On ail
sides' enemies rose up against liim,
"Let somebody who din speak Es
kimo question the boy," said his 'ene
mies. Then . we shall know the
troth.";
" Andrews made answer, his. only on
swer. .;,
"Put the boy to school," he said,
"till he can '. speak English, and let
blm be asked the truth."
Andrews lived in a little cottage in
Maine. ...... v-;
The Eskimo boy was being educated
at a public school.
All the while Catherine Maynard
fought with her pride. She knew that
Andrews loved her, but she could
never, speak unless he told her. He
did not come, and at last love con
quered, pride. She wrote to him.
When; Andrews received Catherine's
letter he bad to make his decision:
Either to go back and face his cat
t umlnators or to go into exile. He
chose. He went back to Catherine.
Catherine," he said, drawing her
Into his arms, "I must tell you now. 1
- love yon.".
"Yes, - dear,"- she answered simply,
and raised her Hps to his.
That was the manner of Andrews'
return to his world, and to his aston
ishment lie found that all the doors
which had been closed against him
were open again. .
Wan-tak-kaw the Eskimo, or John,
as he had come to be called, could
now speak English fairly well. He
was a frequent caller at Mnynard'e
home. In spite of the professors, lie
was able to give a very clear account
of the accident, which utterly ban
ished all shadow of suspicion, If such
bad ever existed, from the admiral's
mind.' - '
"John," Bald Catherine, "Lieutenant
Andrews and I are going to be mar
ried" "Good," . pinned the Eskimo. "In
' nfor country , we give present when
man get married, to woman."
,"?To think; dearest, that tomorrow
we shall begin our life together !"
whispered Catherine, as they sat to
gether In the house.
I "Mr., John, Miss Maynard." an
nounced the old butler.
I John came smiling Into the room.
;In iny country give marriage pres.
?it night before," he said, extending
msU package., fNot for you. Miss
Catherine for Lieutenant Andrews,"
be continued. '
" Andrews tore it open. Inside was A
magnificent peart' necklace, and, with
ft, a sheet of note paper In Scovllle's
writing. Catherine saw it and grew
ss' pale as death.
; "What's this, Johnf asked An
drews Quickly.
"Captain ScovHle give him to me,"
answered the Eskimo. "He say to me,
Byneby Lieutenant Andrews get mai
rled. Then you give this to him. Not
give to girl, give to him. You eny
nothing till he ready to get married.' "
"Catherine, .dear, do you think you
bad better read It?" asked her lover.
"Yea, dearest," she answered brave
ly. . They read It together.
"My dear Andrews," (it ran).
"If you marry Miss Maynard, as I
hope and believe, give her this neck
lace as, a last gift to her from one
who will not see her again. God bless
yon both, my dear friend.

Catherine looked at Andrews and
ber eyes were full of tears.
"He loved me," she whispered. "He
all but asked me. But he knew ha
knew that It was you. And he he "
"He did not mean to return." said
Andrews huskily.
"Do you set what that letter means,

Reaction by Electricity
normal response, Interrupted gal
vanic current is used with proper
arrangements for starting and stop
ping its flow. The wire attached
to a back electrode is plugged in at
various strengths until the patient's
normal muscle or nerve reacts to
the current. The same process is
repeated with the paralysed arm
which, if it is not entirely beyond
help, shows reaction, although to a
much stronger current. The dif
ference between the strengths of
current which cause, the two arms
to react, gives tb.e specialist the
basis for his calculation to de
termine the exact method for
treatment.
As. treatment progresses, this ma
chine tests the reactions which, if
they follow successively lighter ap
plications, 'indicate improvement.
The Reconstruction Hospital uses
electricity in the form of heat, light
and chemical action in ; its work of
rehabilitating disabled, workers. , t

. Do You Know?
The legitimate tire merchant will readily explain it
to you while the other fellow will lead you to believe
that his tire is guaranteed to run G.00Q or 7,000 or even
10,000 miles regardless. Don't be misled by these mis
representations. Buy a legitimate, known tire, from a
known dealer, then you will be safe.
There is only ONE way to get tire-economy,
is miles against net cost on par quality.
