Did you ever hear of lt? the old lady went on. "Yes, I've heard of it." Mike looked at the lined; face. It must have been very beautiful, for even , now the eyes were still a deep blue. "Your daughter looks like you?'.' she asked kindly. The old woman beamed. "She looks like I used to." She's real beau tiful," the mother added compla cently. Ton should see some of the pictures of herself she sends me. They're as big as this." The old woman stretched out her arms to indicate the size. Mike could vis ualize the photographs, probably vastly different than those which appeared in front of the Inferno. ! "Yes, mj girl was always, beau tifoL I've worried a lot about her. She went- down to South America once and married. I sever saw him. She left him in Buenos Aires and came home. So, I'm glad things are going so well for her." Mike sat silent, thinking of the "glamour girl" at the Inferno Cafe whose mother sat here beside her. "You've never been to New York? she asked. . "No. I'd like to go, but I can't leave her father. He isn't well. We were married young, we went to school together out in Kansas. In Pretty. Did you ever hear of it?" 1 "You mean the name of the town b Pretty?- i lea, ue roys used to say our town was rightly named, that my slater and I helped to give it hs name." The old lady rambled on. . . . i Mike only half heard- what she said. Her thoughts were elsewhere. She looked at her watch. It was i four-thirty. If she walked back, llhe'd get to the drug store just Jbont in time to meet CaroL The I Ha woman was loath to let her ero.

Mike climbed oa i stool and bought m soda, That : would take up some time.' It was i after five. Mike hoped Carol would I not be late. She did not dare go up r to the hotel apartment without her. As Mike finished the last drop of her i; slowly, a familiar voice spoke :; her name: j ' ci -r-r- '-- "What are you doing here?" , It was vasty. Mike thought fast. "I came here to get carton of cigarettes for Handsome.1? MiVa : hoped Dusty did not notice her con- - fusion. , ; ' . "Come on, Carol will probably be !. waiting for uu," he said i got up slowly.

The waiter was ust leaving with their dinner order, and Dusty was alone. Carol was evidently dressing. "Aren't you and Handsome going to eat with us?" Dusty asked. 'Not tonight, thanks. Handsome wants to go to a new restaurant he's found." Dusty lausrhed. "Brine him back up here, there are some people com ing In later." Mike said she would. Dusty got up and came to the door. He stood looking down into Mike s fresh young face: "I like you kid," he said suddenly. "I'm glad. . You and Carol have been so kind to me." He brushed that aside. "I don't want to see you making any mis takes." "What do you mean?" Dusty grinned: "I'm an old hand. Skipper." He used Handsome's pet name for her. I like you and I like that crazy mug you re eneazed to, Don't want to see you get started wrong." Mike did not understand. She looked up at him uncomprehend ingly. He patted her shoulder: "I won't tell on you this time. But I don't want Carol getting mixed up in any such stuff. Handsome would blame her. You're too nice a kid to two-time anybody. Remember?" Mike was speechless9 for a mo ment. "Ill remember." she managed. He gave her a little hue. pushed her out ol the door and shut it. Mike leaned acreinat fi vail a she waited for the elevator.

They went a a .a . en ouc w tne restaurant, the new "discovery which HandwmM tial made down the street. When they xacea each other across the little table i for two which Han an, chose, he went on: -Do you know, it's funny, but I think I Just alwava took van fa . i .. . "What an awful thing, to say!

Each time Mike resorreofto tell him about Carol and that afternoon, tell him what Dusty believed. But she hesitated.

That stocks were becoming somewhat ' "shock-proof," how erer, was Indicated by the fact the day's turnover amounted to but 1457,890 shares against 496. 420 the day before. It was the smallest full day's volume since August 17. ' Losses ran to 3 points or so at one time, but mild support; at the last, apparently . predicted on reports Italy might mediate the nazi-Pollsh controversy, enabled many stocks to close well above the day's lows. The Associated Press average of 60 issues was off .7 of a point at 46.3. It was the second day's consecutive de cline in this composite. Previous ly the list had regained about 45 per cent of its recent setback.! Tending to dampen speculative spirits at the start were falling prices in foreign markets and a turn for the worse in develop ments abroad. j On tbe home front cheering business news, including a Jump in last week's freight loadings to a peak mark since last October, served to intimidate potential stock sellers. . ! In the day's share retreat were D. S. Steel, Bethlehem, Chrysler, Montgomery Ward, American Telephone, Anaconda,. Westing house, Philip Morris, U. S. Gyp sum, Santa Fe, U. S. Rubber and Standard Oil of N. J. PICKIXG STARTS. AIRLIE.- Hop picking began at the M. E. Branch yard Thurs day with a larger crew than usual. This crew Is divided into two shifts and each under, a section foreman, one being Bill Williams and the other Forrest Cravens of GarabaldL . I Lucky 35 Larry." She was horrified at bow easily the lie 'came to her lips. Never again would she allow Carol to put her in this position! She'd make that plain tomorrow just be tween the two of them. Fortunately for Mike, Handsome wanted to talk shop and she encour aged him tonight with a feeling of disloyalty for she heard hardly one word he said. It looks as though we'd come off i this road trip with the pennant in j our pocket..." He was too en-1 grossed to notice Mike's preoccupa 1 tion any more. "Had a letter from mother today..." He threw the square white envelope over to Mike. She wants us to come out home and be married before Christmas." They sat over dinner a long time talking about their plans; Mike forgot all about her troubles until it was time to leave: Dusty wanted you to stop at the I suite, they, have people coming . . ' Handsome groaned, "No that s out tonight I I want to see a movie and catch some sleep. I may have to pitch tomorrow." "What shall I tell them? I can't get into my room without their see ing me." "Tell them I'm sick, that I've broken a leg, that I've gone to China . . . I don't care what you tell them . . just so I don t have to be there. Dusty knows he won't have to work tomorrow ... let him carry on as ha likes." They'll probably make me come in..." "That's-your job, Skipper, nowa days," Handsome retorted coolly; Just keep the pack off me. I'm working man!" He grabbed her arm and hurried her down the street to the nearest movie. The film amused Handsome for a while. In the middle ef it, he decided he'd had enough. As they sauntered back to the. hotel,1 Handsome gave Mike's band a squeeze. "You're a darling. Most girls would make a fuss. It's too bad you can't get away from this party tonight, but as long as you're travel ing with them, you're hooked." He smiled down at her: "Next rear. kid, it will be different..." With lagging steps Mike said good-night, went on up to the Lee : suite. As she came down the hall, ; she could hear voices and laughter and the radio going full blast. If sne opened the door into the foyer quietly, she might be able to slip, into her bedroom unnoticed. But it was a false hope. The moment she' came into the small hallway, she heard Dusty's voice shouting? f ' - . . c waiting iur you. Where's Handsome?" he added when he saw she was alone. "He went on to bed ... " TThe lazy good-f or-nothing . . . Dusty reached for the telephone,' and asked the operator to ring Handsome's room. But Handsome was quite prepared. He'd had all calls shut off. "I'm going down there and pull that mug out!" Dusty in dressing gown and slippers, started toward the hall. It took the combined efforts of everybody in the room to dissuade him. Carol finally resorted to tears before he promised to take another drink instead. "You're making a sissy of that ffayr Dusty accused Mike. , In all this turmoil there was no opportunity to introduce Mike to any of the guests who were Strang, ers to her. One of them set out to make himself agreeable to the red head. He turned out to be Frank Ralston, a Chicago attorney. Mike tried to appear as though she were having a pleasant time. In spite of Dusty's- efforts -to make her try Scotch, she drank only a little gin gerale. r - ' "I heard yon were lovely, Miss Shannon," Ralston was saying. "I saw your pictures in the paper this, week, but it didn't do you justice." There didn't seem to be any an swer to this, so Mike smiled fatuous ly aa she wondered how she could maks her escape. : - . (To be continued) - faanlgalaf Vara Br at a Xlas rattans SraaVsla.

Closing quotations of 67-67 for September,? 6?- for De cember and 69H-69 for May were cents higher than yester day but -l cent lower than the highs established early in the session. . British war prepara tions. Including closing of the stock exchange tomorrow, . and other disquieting news attracted much attention but the market also had to digest operations in connection with proximity of the September delivery period. No tices of intention to - deliver enough wheat tomorrow to satis fy contracts involving 6,062,000 bushels were posted after the market closed. ! Reports from the southwest in dicated wheat and flour business has improved and a large order of flour was reported sold to a chain bakery. International trade was quiet, however, although re cent confirmation of 25,000,000 bushels of Argentine sold to Eng land and France and about 5,000,000 bushels of Canadian to the British government tbe past week or so led traders to expect further large scale operations such as this, particularly if war occurs. 90c; special brands high as 1.25; Spears, 85c-1.00; Oregon, 1.001.15; DiUard, 1.251 California, 75e-1.00.
