and so into the arena where waged the thunderOus combat. The wheat pit was in a paroXysm, ungovernable and volcanic. The bulls, all but rout- ed, were making desperate stand But it was hopeless. The ground tot tered beneath them. Their frenzied rushes were met by the imperturbable, unconquerable bears, and they were ever forced to retreat, snorting, bel- lowing, but unquestionably beaten.
 At the height of the conflict, when the battle din shrieked it's loudest, the closing gong sounded and the days session was over. The indicator on the wheat dial pointed to 55 cents.
 Fitzhugh rushed from the gallery, showing people right and left, and took the stairs five at leap, figuring his profits as he ran. In the office of Burton X Burton he found Hunt, who seized his arm, clapped his shoulder, hustled him into the street, rejoicing, congratulating and boasting all in the same breath.
 Didn't we lick lem, though!" he rattled on. I've made two hundred and twenty-five thousand, and you well, not quite so much, of course, but, considering the investment, very fair, Fitzhugh, very fair"
 With these encouraging words he handed over a check for $2S, S,500. Fitz- hugh very calmly inclosed it in the empty morocco wallet, returned the wallet to his pocket, and buttoned the flap over the pocket.
 "Yes, very fair" he concurred, without smiling. "Very fair, as you say, Hunt" His coolness, however, was all assumed. Beneath, he was trembling with excitement
 But, Daniel Fitzhugh, let me tell you something" Hunt stopped shortly and "buttonholed" Fitzhugh. '"There's another plum on our little tree" he went on enthusiastically, while the passersby bumped and jostled them from side to side, that's just about as juicy as this one was. Its-but come on to lunch and I'll tell you all about it."
 They lunched at Hunts club. Or, rather, Fitzhugh did Hunt ate noth- ing. He was too ebullient. He elab orated his plan. going extensively into details, producing endless data from his pockets, while the untasted food grew cold before him.

A WELL-kNoWN INSTITUTION.

Probably no institution in America IS more widely known than Doctor Pierce's Invalids' Hotel in Buffalo, N. Y. Although established many years ago it is today a modern sanitarium, having all the latest facilities for the correct diagnosis of diseases and their successful treatment through medicine or surgery.
 It was Dr. Pierce, it's founder, who over 50 years ago gave to the world that wonderful stomach tonic and blood purifier, "Golden Meo. .~l Discovery" and that famous noh- alcoholic medicine for women, "Fa- vorite Prescription"
 In his early professional career, Dr. Pierce realized that every family, but especially those who live remote from a physician, should have at hand an instructive book that would teach them something about First Aid, Physi- ology, Anatomy, Hygiene; how to rec ognize different diseases, how to care for the sick, what to do in case of ac- cident or sudden sickness, etc., so he published that great book, the Medical Adviser" an up-to-date edition of which can be procured by sending 50 cents to Doctor Pierce's Inyalids' Hotel in Buffalo, N. Y.
 Later, Dr. Pierce added another link to his chain of good works by estab- fishing bureau of correspondence to which any one can write for medical advice, without any expense whatever, and if necessary, medicines especially prepared in Doctor Pierce's Laboratory will be sent by parcel post or express for use at home, at reasonable cost. Thus those who have symptoms of dis ease need not suffer mental agony fear ing that they have some serious ail. ment, but can have a diagnosis made free by a physician of high profes- sional standing. Write to Dr. Pierce relating your symptoms if you need medical advice for any chronic disease. All letters regarded as confidential.

A CHECK FOR $28, 500.

ynopsis.-Typical tramp in ap- pearance, Daniel Randolph Fitz- hugh, while crossing a. Chicago street, causes the wreck Of an auto, whose chauffeur disables it trying to avoid running him down. In pity the occupant of the auto. a young girl, saves him from arrest and gives him a dollar, telling him to buy soap, and wash. His sense of shame is touched, and he im- proves his appearance. That night, in a crowd of unemployed and an- archists, he meets Esther Strom, Russian anarchist, and in a spirit of bravado makes a speech. A few days later Fftzhugh visits Syming- ton Otis, prominent financier, and displaying a package which he says contains dynamite, demands $l0,e00. Otis gives him check. At the bSuse he meets the girl who had given him the dollar, and learNS she is Kathleen Otis. She recognizes him. Ashamed, he tears up tf:e check and escapes, but is arrested. Esther visits Fitzhugh in jail, and makes arrangements for procuring legal advice. His trial is Speettlly competed ana ne IS 1Ou1lQ insane and committed to an asy- lum, from which he easily makes his escape. Fitzhugh takes refuge in Chicago with Esther, who has become infatuated with him. His one idea is now to become rich and powerful, and win Kathleen. In fight with Nikolay, jealous admirer of Esther, Fitzhugh worsts him. Securing menial employment he learns that Nikolay has been found dead in Esther's house, and in letter to him she admits the kill ing, telling him she did it for his sake and that she has gone away. He sees Kathleen from a distance, and is strengthened in his determi- nation to win her. Fitzhugh at tracts the attention of Quigg, deal CT in bogus stocks. Fitzhugh acts as a decoy for gul1ible investors Staked by his employer in a poker game for high stakes, he meets a wheat pit speculator, Henry Hunt, who believes him to be New York man of wealth.

whea. pit. Under the terrific mre- hitting pounding of Symington Otis and his associates September wheat descended with invincibIe force With every titanic swing of the bears tre- mendouS hammer the foundation of the bulls rocked and swayed beneath their feet-and the dollars piled up for Daniel Fitzhugh. Yet he knew he was nothing in. that mighty conflict. He was unseen, unfelt, unknown-the yeriest pigmy in battle of giants.
 Down, down went the price of wheat, witlf a dizzying velocity that made the pit totter. It touched SC, S4, so. It fell to ., 73, 60 And then, in one gigantic crash, as the bears put forth their last, supreme effort, the bottom dropped from the market and September wheat went to B cents.
 It was on this day that FitzhHgh severed his connection with Quigg x Peevy. Quigg, repenting his unwise bargain made in a hot-hea1ed moment of anger, endeavored to retain his "star" with alluring promises. But Fitzhugh was obdurate He held the grafter rigidly to his word. When he left the building and walked down La Sale street he possessed nothing save the clothes he wore. He had not cent in his pockets. He had not even a place to sleep. The inimical Quigg had seen to that Yet, entering the portals of the Board of Trade. he felt again that eXaltati0n he had expert enced when cutting his ties with Es- ther. Once more he was free-free to go his own way, free TO mount to the pinnacle he had set himself, un- hindered by an alien hand
 The gallery was crowded, for news of the upheaval had spread abroad, but. Fitzhugh's height enabled him to see over the heads of those in front

CHAPTER VI-Continued.

Fitzhugh did not speak, and the other rushed on:
 Every cent I've been able to rake, scrape, steal or borrow goes into this. I'm going to have Burton sell half q million September at the best price he can get. How much do you want, Fitz- hugh? Remember, it's not speculat- ing, exactly. It's more like picking up money in the street."
 "Tm sorry, Hunt, but I'm afraid I shan't be able to go into this with you. There's no necessity for details, is shere?"
 By George, that is too bad! It's l ot every day you get a chance like this. Sure you can't come in?"
 Quite sure"
 "Im mighty sorry. Well, it can't be me a moment" Hunt turned and started on a half-run toward the office of the senior Burton.

Instruct Assessors
To List All Building
And Loan Stock Shares

Lincoln, March 6-(Special.) )--Iu
an effort to correct the impression
regarding the duties of assessors in
the assessment Of shares of stock of
building and loan associations the
department of finance and the sec
retary of the state board of equaliza-
tion has sent out the following:
Section No. 498 of the statutes
for 1918 exempts from taxation the
capital stock, the loans and advances
OF mortgages made by building and
loan associations, but provides that
shares of stock in these associations
shall for the purpose of taxation be
considered and held as credits, and
members and holders of such shares
shall. list the same for taxation, and
the same shall be taxed in such man.
ner and subject to the same deduc-
tions as may be provided by law
for the taxation of other credits
I'VE therefore instruct you to list
for taxation all shares of stock in
these associations where they are
held as an investment or where the
stock is held for purposes other than
that of obtaining a loan.
This applies to members or hold
ers of any shares Of stock either in
block or individual shares.
"The courts have repeatedly held
that credits representing money in
banks, loans or money invested are
to be assessed without offset of in
debtedness, so there can be no de-
ducions permitted from the value
Of these shares of stock in building
and loan companies"
