He read it to himscil atoud: “WWANTED--Newe of John Water- ford, formerly of H'chbury Hall, Stockton, England, hé ed 10 be in the Canadin Noirh Auy per- n who can inon \ Lawson and Jones of 17 Orpington street. | I'oronto, of the whercabouts of i { John Wateriord 11 be rewerded.” ‘ The clippiie hid been placed before ! the corporal by h aptain “This se o refer to you, John,” > had said If vou want to, take a week's turlough and run in to To- ronto."” The captain looked at him search- ingly, for he knew that Waterford was a gentleman by birth, and surmised AUASA DA DAL A A ANA AECDRC OF SERVICE By H.

The word “business” kept them silent. Waterford would be the last man in the world to di- vulge the secrets of the police. They had no doubt that he was going to take in some criminal for trial, though they imagined it must be an unusual case that required his presence in To- ronto. But it was not a police matter at all.

But he knew the welknul‘ of his own nature; he knew how ! strong is the tug of the home land {upon one's heart strings. If he went home he would never go back to pret- t) Louise and Canada. He took the train at Edmonton and ‘ln due course arrived at Toronto. An hour later he was standing in the presence of Mr. Lawson. “I am John Waterford.” he said. Mr. Lawson looked at him gravely. “Of course you can produce some evi- dence,” he said. Vot that I doubt you, but you see is an important atter.

His fa- ther had died a few months hefore— killed in the hunting field, in his eighty-second year. And John was the only son. And the Waterford es- tates, together with the mining royal- | e | ties, brought in nearly thirty thousand | gupper we pounds annually. But John was thirty-feur, and it was fifteen years since he had seen his father. They had quarreled bitterly over a woman whom John had want- ed to make his wife. His father had ordered him never to enter the house again while he was alive. With sim- ple literaluess, Jolin had obeyed. And to add to the poignancy the woman had promptly thrown John over. for| she could not afferd to wait an indefi- | nite number of years to oot possess of whatever the old buronet mig leave his 0.

But & when John reached the street his face « was radiant. He had made his choice, as once be fore, between money and love, an - , again he had chosen love.
