TESTIMONIALS OF H. U F. SILO OWNKItS
I nm convinced that the double wall principle in silo construc
tion is the correct one. and 1 believe that you have solved tho
problem for an efficient silo. Simple to build at n very reasonable
cost. Jnn. M. Dixon, former United States Senator from Mis
soula, Mont,
I think thnt the Hewitt-Lea-Funk Silo is worth just twice as
much ns uny other silo in this part of the country. If I shall ever
want to build another silo, you can feel assured to sell me the next
one. T. I. CftgRcm, Odin, Minn.
Mr. E. M. Dean of Nyssn, Ore., bought on of the first onei
manufactured and was bo well pleased with the results that he
bought another in 11117. Also did Mr. 0. T. Johnson of Fort Kipley.
Minn. Bought one in 1914 and uguin in 1018 bought three more.
What more proof do you wish? and Che price is from $75 to $iru
cheaper. Our prices are F. 0. H. your own station. There wen
over six hundred sold last year. One agent Hold over $7000 worth
of them. -4:if CAttn.M
1 have not lost A pound of ensilage by spoiling and there has
been no shrinkage or swelling in the inside or outside wails of tho
silo. In my oslimathm the 11, L. F. Silo is much superior to tho
stave silo as ninny of them have shrunk or went partly over in our
. locality, Hubert Kobortson, Kent, Wash.
I saved SIfiO over the cost of a
more than any stave ailo. Ray F.

frojn Dorothy' lips,
i "A live ! No, (bat Is Impossible!" I
touched the figure wlihmy hitnd. "Tho
hYsh Is like stone," I said, "thus held
lifelike by some magic of the Indies.
What can It ull'rneuu? Who could tiio
woman be? It Is love or hate'"
".Not love, Uenffry, Love would
never do this thing. It is hate, tho
gloating of revenge; there can be no
other answer this is tho end of a
tragedy."
There was nothing, not a scrap of
paper, not even the semblance of a
wound exposed. The umile on those
parted lips had become one of mock
.cry ; I could bear the sight no longer,
and rose to my feet, clasping Dorothy
r!ose to me, as she still gazed down In
fascination at the ghastly sight.
"We will never know. The man who
could tell Is dead."
"Oiptuln I'arudlHa?"
"Who else could It be? This was
bis schooner, und here h? alone could
hide such a secret. There Is nothing
more we can learn, and 1 1 it; horror un
nerves me. Hold the light, ih-ar, while
I replace the lid of the chest."
It required my utmost effort to ac
complish this. I was glad to have the
thing bidden, to cscupe the stare of
those ilxed eyes,- the deatli srnllo of
those ret I lips. It was no longer a
reality but u dream of delirium; I
dare not think or speculate my only
desire being to get away, to get Dor
othy away. In absolute terror I drew
her with me to the open door then
stopped, paralyzed; the half revealed
llgure of u mail appeared on tho cabin
stairs.
"Nlnp! Who are you?"
"Watklns, sir. 1 came below to cull
you. There's sumthln bloomln' ,odd
takln' place out there in the fog, Cap
tain Oarlyle. We want ycr on deck,
sir, right away."
CHAPTER XXXI.
The Boat Attack.
He waited for us Just without the
companion, but my eyes caught noth
Ing unusual as I emerged into the
daylight. I could barely see amidships,
and on either side hung the Impene
trable Imiik of cloud, leaving sen and
sky Invislhle.
"What Is It, Watklns? Where ore the
men V
"Forrard, sir, a-hangln' over the star
board rail. Thar's sninothln' cursedly
strange a-happeiiln' In that fog. Ole
was the tlrst ter hear the clatter ov
en oar slippln' In a rowlock. Then,
sir, while we wus n-llstenln' we both
caught sound ov a Spanish oath,
spoke as plain as if the buck wus
aboard."
"A lost boat, likely shipwrecked
sailors 'adrift' (n the fog; perhaps our
other quarterhoat. No one hailed
them?"
"iVo, sir; I told the men ter keep still
till I called you. '
The crew were all gathered at the
rell, staring out Into the mist, whis
pering lo each other, I pressed my
way i among them. We may have
..cea clinging there a minute of two,
breathlessly listening. Then a voice
npoke directly In front of me out from
the delist, .fog.
"Try t ip port oar, Pedro; we must
havo missed the d n ship."
I straightened up as though struck,
my oyes seeking those of Watklns, who
stared ack at me, his mouth wide
tpon in astonishment.
"You heard that?" I whispered. "Do
you know who spoke?"
'T)o I? Head or alive, sir, It was
Manuel Kstevun.'
"Ay; no other, and nlive enough, no
doubt. Lads, come close to me and
listen they must not hear us out
there. Hy some devil's trick the Na
mur has followed our course, or else
yonder are a part of bis crew cast
away. They clearly know of us per
haps bad a glimpse through, acme rift
in - the cloud und are necking to
hoard with a boat party. 'Tis not like
ly those devils know who we oris
probably take us for a merchant ship
beelilmed in the fog and Mtihle to be
come an easy prey, If they can only
stlp on ns, unseen. How are you, bul
lies? Keady to bottle your old mates?"
"Those wetv no mates o ours, sir,"
said Watkins tndlgunntlv. "They are
half breed mongrels, and no sailers;

Tl? pthT t'niinbled assent, but
their muttered words had Ju them a
ring, of sincerity, and their faces ex
hibited no cowardice, Onu oaij anLed
a question.
"lto fer fightln', sir," ho said grim
ly, "but what'U wo ue? Them lad
ain't eonrtn' aboard bare-hnndetl, hut
damn If I've scud u weapon on ildr-j
hooker."
"Dar's three kiiJves, on' a meat

Sam,
"We'll do well enough; some of you
have your shearh knives yet, and lhu
rest can ue hehi.ving pins an-J eapstun
bars. Tho point is to not let tla.'in get
aboard, and, if there is only one bunt,
we will be pretty even-ham!, d. Pick
up what you can, and inun thi:; rail
quietly now, hearties, and k -p yuiir
eyes open.
It proved a longer wait than I ex
pected. Unable to withstand the iu
actlon any longer I turned and took a
few steps oft, thinking to giuge our
progress by the wake astern. I v.us
abaft the cabin on the port side wh.'n
Doroihy called my name a KUiidvn ac
cent of terror in hr voice.
Tho alarm was sounded nmie too
soon. KIther fortune, or s:ill, hatl
served those d' raor.s well. Tluy had
succeeded in circling the stern of tho
Santa Marie, un'eo. und unheard by
anyone aboard. Kven as the shrhl;. d
the alarm, u band wus at her throat.
and she was slruu;;Ung tiejieralely in j
the merciless grip uf u half-nuked iu
dlan. Yet at that they were too late, Ibo
advantage of surprise had Tailed th-rn.
A half dozen hud rendu d the d-:. k,
leaping from the nv, the others below
clambering after their leaders, when
with a rush we met them, it was a
tierce, mad fight, list ami ciub p:it,:d
but. the do-
against knife and ci.Hli
feutlei-s struck like demons iiuai'nate.
I doubt M' the sru::glw lasted luo miu
tes. I heard the biows, the oath, the
cries of pain, I he dull thud t, f wood
against hone, the sharp clang of. stee!
In contact, the shuilllng of feet on the
deck, the splash of bodies hurh-d over
board, h'uch man fought for bimseit,
in his own way. i thought only of le r,
and leaped straight for iter assaibmt
with bare hands, .smashing reck 1 1 -;sly
through the hasty guard of bis cutlass
and gripped the copper devil by hair
and tin. at. km w .he fell to the

my 'rlp unbreakable, as forced his
tec
back, against the rail, until it
cracked, the swarthy body sliding inert
to the deck. Whirling to as.-iM iiu

chains; two below in the boat were
endeavoring to cast off, and Schmitt,
with Us i eva n helpless In his arms,
staggered to the side and Hum; the
shrieking Spanish cur overboard out
Into dark water. 1 In aril the splash as
he fell, the single cry his lips $?ae, but
lie never again appeared above the sur
face. Above the bedlam Watutns
roared out an ord. r.
"That's it. hiillie:;! ihnt's It ! Now
