New York, Feb. 10 (P2-Thc curb market moved moderately higher during the first hour of trading to- day, as the upturn of late Saturday was carried over into the new week. but the higher levels quickly attract ed profit taking and by midday many of the early gains were can- Cclled.
 As the list began to faltcr else where, speculative attention was turned to the oils, where a moderate upturn was accomplished. Utilities displayed early strength, but failed 10 hold their gains. The group of three rail stocks traded on this mar Ret showed considerable activity and moderate strength during the morn- ing. Canadian Pacific and Chcsa- pcakc and Ohio new stocks sold I'D about a point each, before rcacting, and Ecnnroad was turned over in large volume around Saturdays clos ing levels.
 Humble was q strong spot in the oils, selling up more than points 10 the best level of the year. Gulf, Vacuum and Standard of kentucky were in fair demand. Cities Service was active, but moved in a marrow range.

How are you fixed fer money" he
asked bluntly.
She opened her handbag and gave
him roll OF bills and pass book
on a Charleston bank. He counted
the money-three hundred dollars.
Then ne opened the pass book. II
showed an account in the name OF
LISA Atkinson that had been opened
nineteen years previously. He spun
the pages that exhibited columns OF
deposits OF one dollar--Scmetimes
tWo-here and there week was
skipped. That was when Hagar was
up Tor Sne ne thought. After each
or these eloquent breaks the amounts
would run to one-fifty or even Two
fifty until the deficit had peen made
good He came to the final page and
taund the balance: fourteen hundred
and twenty-five dollars. For mo-

beauty OF the thing that lay behind
the prosaic columns OF figures. Mann
ba-a maker of bricks without straw,
a disciple of a single tranScendent
ideal, in the name of which she had

Wentworth turned with a new Gu
rioSity to examine the girl who had
been the cause of such devotion. The
very magnitude OF the sacrifices
which she represented endowed her
with an Importance out OF proper
ton to herself as an individual. She
was a syn Dol into which had gone
the blind upward urges, the Stumb-
ling aspirations, the great, fantasia
cally conceived dreams Of the old
woman, and behind Mamba, OF mil
lions of her inarticulate kin.
During the brief space r. time that
ne mad been with the girl, Went
worth had been conscious of a grow
ing annoyance at her calm accept
ance of the sacrifices that were be-
ing mae for her, at the GOODNESS
with which she had precipitated a
wreck. then left the debris Tor otners
to clear away. Manila, Hagar, Gray
son. himself, would attend to details.
Why should she worry? Now the Ut
tie book that he held Suddenly eX-
planned her attitude. 1t went fur
ther and convinced him in some in
explicable fashion that her assump-
ZION was justified.
LISA would attain her goal De.
cause she, like her grandmother, mad
never once removed her gaze from
it, He knew, of course, of the girls
reputation in coloured circles as
singer, and of Mamba's faith in her
future. Now he saw that this faith
was the only thing that mattered
in their lives. 1t had been born and
bred into the girl. Her own belief
in herself was supreme. OF the great
