The words cut into Evelyn's heart
with the keenness Of physical pain.
Only little while before she had stood
alone at the brink of the grave. There
had been no hope that the summer
would bring a helpless wee thing to
hold her close to Marcus. But now
Her thoughts whirled. So great was
her faith In Polly Hopkins that she

CHAPTER XVI

"Cnn you speak to mel"
Pollyop's voice was as tender as
when she had repeated heavenly prom.
ises to the sad ones Of the Silent City
and had taught them that love was
ever present.
Evelyn gazed at her electrified. The
brown eyes were softly luminous. The
lips which only little while ago were
strained and blue now were scarlet
and fraught with sympathy. What
wonderful thing had happened? Pol.
lyop had taken the rope or her feet
and hands. She could wriggle a little.
although her flesh hurt dreadfully
when she tried 1t.
Prompted by the attempted move

and began to chafe the Injured an

Then her face fell beside Mrs. Mac
Kenzie's, and she wept Historically.
Evelyn's fingers clutched at the chest
nut curls.
"Pollyop. oh, Polly. darllng!"
This was all she could say. for she,
too was weeping even more wildly
than the other. In the presence Of
such divine unselfshness, the petals
Of her wlthered soul seemed to lift and
open, as she CROPPED for broader
understanding.

Evelyn tainted, toppled forward and
rolled almost under the bed.
The squatter girl bounded to her
side. her frantic fingers tearing loose
the ropes that Larry and Lye Braeger
had made secure around Evelyn's body.
They fell away, leaving the girl but a
little heap on the floor.
Tears streamed over her dark lashes
as Pollyop gathered the limp head Of
Evelyn Mackenzie into her arms. And
then she prayed. as Granny Hope had
taught her to pray. "Our Father
which art In heaven" The rest Of the
petition slipped from her mind, and
she quoted with chattering teeth. ''The
Lord Is my shepherd, l shall not

Her strong arms lifted Evelyn and
as she rolled over on the cot, Polly

Reports on Grain Trading Bill.


Washlngton.-The Senate agricultur-
al committee, informally reporting the
Capper-Tlncher futures trading bill,
declared that the fluctuations in prices
since the original futures trading act
was held unconstitutional, had done
much to confirm the belief of the
farmers that prices were being manlp-
ulated to his distinct disadvantage"
Grain exchanges contend, according to
the statement, that the fall in price
was due to unusually heavy hedging
sales, but the committee statement
added, the belief persisted that the
drop resulted from "short selling by
