The lead character in “The Power Within,”” written by Robert Canadian poet, and minister, now Nving in the United States, is man who, like Job, poszessed riches and happiness, Job Armstrong, ship builder, ship owner and millionaire, was a uoll-\ made man, and praud of it.

The first bad luck of years came to| Job with the sfnking of a freight ship | bound for Singapore. This Was the beginning of the Count’s scheme to ruin Job.

While he wondered, even as Job of old wondered when all he had was taken from him, why thesc blows should fall on him word came that Bob had mysteriously disappeared in France. Count Bazaine confirmed the story upon his return. Slowly Job Armstrong’s Thealth| broke, but he would not give up, nor his own pawer. Though the strength of the shipyards had weakened, Job hung unto his faith in himself—he would save them alone, by his own efforts. But the sinister forces of Bazaine during the many months hrought Job fo the brink of ruin. Then, from France, came Pauline, tue little peas- ant girl Bob had married, and their little n. She told-of their courtship, their marriage and then how Bob had | met his death. ’ At last the day came when Joh Armstrong was forced to admit de-| feat and appoint a receiver, cup of bitterness was not yet drained. In the chilly dawn, his home bhurned to the ground.
