EXPECT LIVING
TO STAY HIGH
Philadelphia Board of Trade
Complies Scores of
Statistics

Philadelphia, July 25.-The cost of
living is likely to stay high for
long time to come in the opinion of
the Philadelphia Board of Trade
This view is a result of a complla-
,tion of statistics from many lines OF
trade and industry.
According to these figures the ad-
vance in prices in this country since
1914 has been about 10T per cent IN
Canada 115 per cent. Great Britain
1913 per cent. and France 2S5 per
cent. 1t is pointed out that, in spite
of material reductions in the price OF
steel, the advance in other common
ties since the armistice has been SO
great that the average price schedules
have been reduced but 81 per cent
below prices prevailing Octooer l.
1918.

CHAPTER xxxv,
a Conner Of His Heart

The second evening after the closure
Rickard was dining with the Mar
shaIls In their car. The Palmyra was
to pull ont the next day. Hardin's
name was brought up by Tod Mar
shall. "She was light potatoes" he
dismissed the woman. But she's
broken the mans spirit"
Richard, II was discovered, had
nothing to say on the subject Of the
elopement
I'm sorry his sister il not here to-
night" began Marshall mischievously.
II did ask her. Tod" Claudia has
tened to interrupt her lord. But she
would not leave her brother her last
evening"
"Her last EVENING" exclaimed Rick
ard. "Is she going away"
Marshall subdued his twinkle. 1--WE
are carrying her OF. She is to visit
Mrs. Marshall while I am on the
road"
Rickard gulped down his coffee,
boiling. Mrs. Marshall, will you let
me run away earlyT Why should he
give any excuse? They knew what l.e
was running away for!
He made his way to the little white
tent on the far side of the trapezium.
Innes, by the door, was bidding good
by to Sonora Maldonado.
He forgot to greet the Mexican. She
stood waiting; her eyes full of him.
Surely, the kind senor had something
to say to her? He had taken the white
girls hand. He wes staring into the
white girls eyes. Something came to
her, = memory like forgotten music.
Silently, she slipped away into the
night.
Rickard would not release Innes'
hand; her eyes could not meet the
look in his.
"Come out and have a walk with
me! You were not going to tell me
you were going. You were running
away from met"
"You know that love you'll have
been waiting for this minute, this
woman. all these lonely years."
Her head she kept turned from him,
He could not see the little maternal
smile that ran around the curves of
her mouth. Those years, filled to the
brim with stern work, had not been
lonely. Lonely moments he had had,
that was all.
Nothing for me" He stopped, and
made her face him, by taking both of
her hands in his.
She would not look at him yet,
would not meet the look which always

saw two men grab each other BY the

their voices, but the sun, rising red
through the banks Of smoke, fell o.

Rickard. She did not care who saw
her crying.

For several hushed seconds the struc-

foam fell cheer went up. The dam
was standing. Silent, it was supposed,

Above the distant jagged line Of
mountains rose red ball. A new day
began. And again the Dragon rose; a
mountain of water came rolling dam

Three trains ran steaming on the

Don't stop now to blast the big
ones. Pour 'em on!" ordered Rickard.
There was long walt before any
rock fell. Marshall and Rickard wait
ed FOR the pour. The whistles blew
again. Then they saw what was
wrong. The morning light showed q
rock weighing several tons which was
resisting the efforts of the pressing
crew. Out Of the gloom sprang other
figures with crowbars. The rock tot
tered, fell. The river tossed 1t as
though 1t were tennis ball, sent 1t
hurtling down the lower face Of the
dam.
Things began to go wild The men
were growing reckless. They were
sagging toward exhaustion: mistakes
were made. Another rock. as heavy as
the last. was worked toward the edge.
Men were thick about 1t with crow
bars. They hurried. One concerted
effort, drawing back as the rock top
pied over the edge. One man was too
slow, or too tired. He slipped. The
watchers on the bank saw a flash Of
waving arms. heard a cry they had

foam caught 1t. The waters closed
