The demand for lumber increases
each week. So :lany orders are re-
ceived at the mills that the lumber
manufacturers have to draw from
the surplus stocks. American lum-
bermen say the orders are usually
somewhat greater this season than
later in the summer. The prices of
items most in demand are being in
creased. The three greatest indus
trial consumers are: the railroads. au-
tomobile manufacturers. and furni-
ture makers. The scant supply Of
hard wood in the south is due to the
spring floods.

was reported as on passage from Tole-

wheat in the cast was being offered
five TO 10 cents below par with wheat
here.
In connection with selling which
from the outset operated as a weight
on the July and September deliveries,
slowing down of foreign demand for
wheat was reported. Notice was
taken. too. of the feebeness of the re-
Spouse which Liverpool quotations
made to the sharp upturn yesterday in

Prospects Of larger receipts Of corn
tended to weaken the market for corn

wholesome nature had taken its place. He felt 8 curious warmth stealing over him.
 "They meant what they said, Bruce. Believe me, if those men can do no other thing, they can keep their word. They didn't just threaten death to me- I could have run rne ffsS 6f rIat. Badly as I wanted to make them pay before I died, I would have gladly run that risk.
 You are amazed at the free way I speak of death. The girls you know. in the city, don't even know the word. They don't know what 1t means They don't understand the sudden end of the light-the darkness cold the awful fear that it isi- It's a real ity here, something to fight against every hour of every day. There are Just three things to do in the noun tains-to live and love and hate. There's no softness. There's no mid ale ground She smiled grimly.
 i've lived with death, and I've heard of it, and I've seen it all my life. If there hadn't been any other way, I would have seen it in the dra- mas of the wild creatures that go on around me all the time. You'll get down to cases here, Bruce-or else you'll run away.

 "But once or twice I was able to get word to old Elmira-the only ally I had left. She was of the true breed, Bruce. You'll call her a hag, but she's woman to be reckoned with. She could hate too-worse than a she-rattIesnake hates the man that killed her mate-and hating is all that's kept her alive. You shrink when I say the word. Maybe you won't shrink when Pm done.
 "'This old woman tried to get in communication with every stranger that visited the hills. You sec Bruce, she couldn't write, herself. And the one time I managed to get a written message down to her telling her to give it to the first stranger to mail one of my enemies got it away from her. I expected to die that night. I wasn't going to be alive when the clan came. The only reason I didn't was because Simon-the greatest of them a1l and the one hate the most kept his clan from coming. He had his own reasons.
 From then on she had to depend on word of mouth. But at last-just q few weeks ago-she found a man that knew you. And it is your story from now on."
 They were still q little while Bruce fire.
