With the aid of Vivian Delamar,
Henry Mallinson made a clever
atroke and threw all suspicion from
himself regarding the kidnapping of
Ruth Ranger. Brennon was forced
to ahoulder all the blame, and his
reward for hia assistance to Mallin
son was prison bars. Ruth immedi
ately got in communication with her
home and informed Eugene Craig
that the waa safe and that sue
would be home in a very short time.
Mallinson determined to sow new
seeds into the girl's mind, knowing
that Craig must now have the plans
In his possession.
"It is known that you own Haunt
ed Valley, and that 1 hold it as
security for a loan," Mallinson con
fided. "I suspect that a powerful
enemy of youra has discovered
something of tremendous value,
and that he ia determined to obtain
control of the valley. Such a man
would halt at nothing to gain his
ends. Knowing that you might for
feit the valley to me, he has In
cluded me in his attacks."
"Why, that Is highly improbable I"
the girl exclaimed.
"Oh, I don't know I Look at all
the perils you have encountered re
cently. What I'd like to know is,
who is this man Craig? Where did
he come from? Doesn't he seem to
know all your plans and projects?"
"If it were Craig," Ruth replied,
"why should he take violent means
to steal the plana from me tonight
when he had access to the plana al
ready and knew their contents?"
"To hide his band," answered the
clever Mallinson.
As they drew up before Ruth's
home, Craig aaw them alighting. He
decided to conceal himself and await
developments. But before leaving
the room, be took the plans from
the table and carried them with
him.
As the new arrivals entered,
Ruth turned to Mallinson and said,
I believe the only value to Haunt
ed Valley lies in the possibility of
Irrigating it. I shall be glad to
show you my plans." The girl led
Mallinson into the living room.
Craig was gone. Ruth glanced
Juickly around the room. The
rench window was open. As the
girl's eyes turned to the hearth she
aaw some papers smoldering. Ruth
cried out and picked up the burnt
corners of the plans the rest were
in ashes.
"The only copy of the plans is
burned," ahe cried, "and Mr. Craig
it gone! What does it mean?"
This was Mallinson's moment of
triumph. A shrug of his shoulders
teemed to lay, "What did I tell
you?" Ruth wat considerably up
set. She hsd trusted Craig and was
getting extremely fond of him. She
told Mallinson that the wanted to
be left alone.
Vivian Delamar was hiding be
hind a French window and was
Keatly relieved when ahe aaw
allinson leave Ruth. As soon as
Mallinson departed, Craig entered
the room.
"I waa afraid you would show
the plans to Mallinson, he explain-
, "so I made a little Are of fold
ed.
ed newspapers and added these torn
corners to make It realistic" Kutn
was bewildered when the young
man handed her the blue-prints.
She didn't know what to think of
him.
AU this was taken In by Vivian,
who hastened to overtake Mallinson
and Impart the information. Mallin
son decided to do a little spying on
bit own account, and with Vivian
he took up a position at the window.
As they watched, a cowboy enter
ed the room and approached Ruth.
"I picked this up' he said, "In
Haunted valley, out i couian t nna
the connecting wires." He un
wrapped the parcel and disclosed a
radio headpiece. Mallinson was ter
ribly alarmed as no observed tnis
from his spot.
"Things are coming our way at
last," Craig said. "You go to the
valley in the morning, Ruth, and
trace up thla radio outfit. I'm
going to tee Brennon in hia cell and
force him to talk."
Mallinson realized that he must
let quickly, to by the time that
Craig reached the cell, Brennon had
already received his instructions.
"There it secret room on the
tame floor at the Ranger offices,"
be Informed Crelg. "You might
get a clue there. I know very little
nf the n ot mvself." Craig wai de
lighted and left the ipot in cheery
Dood,
That night, Mallinson and one ol
hit assistants were mysteriously
busy in the secret office installing
the radio spectroscope apparatus.
But when Craig came down the
dark corridor with a flashlight and
opened the door, he found it de
serted. However, through a tiny
aperture in the next office, Mallin
son was watching every move the
young man made, and was ordering
his men to start the machinery.
Mallinson's object waa to photo
graph an image of Craig by means
of the radio spectroscope so that he
could later project it wherever he
desired.
Craig discovered the radio set in
the office just as Mallinson had
planned and the young man losi
no time in placing the headpiece tc
hia ears. He heard nothing, but sat
down and decided to wait, hoping
that he might pick up a message.
Dawn found Ruth Ranger and the
cowboy in Haunted Valley. The
latter was showing Ruth the spo
where he found the radio telephone
Then the search commenced, with
the cowboy gradually straying far
ther and farther away from the
girl-
Meanwhile, in Mallinson's secret
control room, that gentleman's
henchmen were watching the valley
earnestly. As they saw that the
cowboy had left the girl'a side, they
decided to carry out the orders ol
their chief.
Suddenly Ruth was amazed U
see the image of Eugene Craig pro
jeered before her eyes. He didn'i
appear to see the girl, but movec
furtively about. Kuth could not un
derstand hia presence and her old
suspicions of nun returned, 5h
decided to follow the young ma.
and tee what he waa up to. But ii
the meantime, Craig, in the flesh
had waited all night in the hopes o,
hearing a message that might re
veal the secret of Ruth's enemies
and had finally fallen asleep, hi:
head on the desk.
Ruth, pursuing the phanton
Craig, was sure that the young mat
was guilty of plotting against her.
She saw him suddenly take a radii
headpiece from its hiding place, jus
as ne aia in tne secret office, snJ
then disappear into a grotto. Ruth
followed him into the darkness of
the tunnel.
The control men lost no time in
working the levers, and suddenly
Kutn was precipitated into a secret
chamber, and a heavy grating shui
her in. She called to Craig for
help, but there was no answer. She
was trapped I A thin trickle of sand
was falling down from above, but
the girl did not notice it in her
anger of Craig.
Mallinson was informed immedi
ately tha thia orders had been car
ried out He assured himself that
Craig was atill a prisoner in the
secret office and then hunted up
Vivian Delamar to give new orders.
Meanwhile. In the underground
prison, Ruth discovered food and
water, but the falling sand had al
ready made quite a pile on the floor
and the girl realized that the sand
would slowly but inevitably fill the
tiny room. All her efforts to stop
It were of no avail
In the secret office. Craig awak
ened with a sudden start. He was
still wearing the radio headpiece,
and was startled to hear Kuth cry
ing: " Help! Help I" It brought
mm to nit senses instantly.
"Ruth I Ruth!" he shouted,
"When are you?"
The land had now Inundated her
up to the armpits. "Have mercy,
U-aigl" Ruth screamed. "You are
killing me! Hurry, or you'll be too
later
Craig was frantic. "Ruth, tell me
where you are I" he cried. "How
hall I help you?"
At that moment, Mallinson step,
ped Into the office through the
secret panel. He seized the wires
from Craig and tore the connections
from the wall.
"What it the meaning of this?"
Mallinson shouted. "What evil
work are you up to now!
Craig was beside himself with
rage as he realized that the villain-
out Mallinson had cut him off from
Ruth. He launched out and struck
hit enemy a terrific blow, but was
suddenly aelied from behind tnd
thrown to the floor.
"Ruth," he murmured. "Save
Ruth!"

Proper Housing
Means More Profit
In Hog Raising
The Hog needs protection more
than most domestic animals, Da.
cause it lacks natural protection,
and is very susceptible to the
influence of cold, heat and drafts.
Hog houses should have tight
walls, roofs, doors nad windowa,
abundant sunlight, well drained
floors and plenty of fresh air
without drafts.
They should be strongly built
of good materials.
Frame constuction meets all
these requirements and Tum-A,
Lumber is recommended because
it is carefully and accurately
made, is strong, durable, depend'
able and will give life-long hon
est service.
