However, even granting that this nt so. he had already been largely ( > overpaid for anything he had done or might still be expected to do.

rvpresentea tne private-oukv. That young man was In the grip of a characteristic Devon rage, and as he rapidly got back Into hl* own clothing his fury numnted until the blood pounded at Ida temple*. He dared not i let himself sum up the case against | Shaw, though the manner in wldeh he ■ had been kicked out savored strongly 'of contempt. Evidently Shaw didn’t care where he was, so lung as he was outside of the house. Neither dared he sum up the ease against Doria, though he could not fur a moment banish from hl* mind the picture of her us she had stood with her back to him and his four assailants. Why had she stood thus? Because she was Indifferent to any fate thut befell him? Or because she was numbed by her own misery? Crowding forward with these questions was a sick fear for her. alone In that sin- \ fster house with four thugs and an old i hag whose sole human quality seemed I to be a sardonic sense of humor exercised at his. Laurie’s, expense. What might happen to her? What might be happening even now? And what assurance hud he thut even if he again succeeded In entering the house, a very remote possibility, lie could accomplish anything against Shaw and his companions? Oh, If only he had waited nnd brought Rodney with him! Together, he felt, the two of them could have met and overcome a regiment of men like Shaw and his secretary. A wild Impulse came to him to take Burke with him In his second effort, i but an appraising look at that seedy ! individual checked' it. He was conI vlnced that Burke could neither fight I nor keep his mouth shut Owing to j his promise to Doris, police help of i | course, was out of the question. No. | i he must go back alone. But this time I there would be Bo seml-Ignomthtons 1 departure. He would either bring ' Doris away, or he would remain there with her. And if Shaw wanted trouble, he’ll get It, and It would be the real thing. Thut afternoon, on his first visit to The Cedars, his new instinct of cau- ■ tlon had made him leave behind him ! the little revolver he had brought. He ; knew his own hot temperament too well to risk carrying it, and he had ' an arrogant faith in his own physical strength which, as a rule, had been Justified. Now, however, he retrieved the weapon, and with a sudden tightening of the lips dropped It Into his overcoat pocket. (TO BE CONTINUED) 0 —— Public Sale. Sat. August. 28, commencing 1 p. m.

Women Just as Good as Men in Business, Says 1 British Business Woman By Victor W. Knauth. (United Press Staff Correspondent I London (Unit . PressViucountosg Rhondda, who is a director In 28 impottant companies, refuse* iu be-, lleve that women as a whole are either better or wors e suited to business than men. She was recently l elected president of the Institute of Directors, the first woman to hold the position. "It Is purely an individual matter," she said of women in business. “It Is Impossible to generalise. There' has been a big development recently and signs of a general awakening to the idea of women working side by j side with men In business. This Is a good thing. I believe, for the commercial world and for the nation as a whole. In u country where busl-l ness and trade are premier factor*! you want to recruit the whole of the business ability of the country instead of only half.” Sir John Cockburn, inaugurating Lady Rhendda as president of the In-, stltute of Directors, said thut women generally are more even-tempered and more businesslike than men. "They do not tise to such heights] of disastrous imagination or sink to such depths of despair, and they are lesai likely to plunge,” he said. Lady > I Rhondda did not agree with him. There arc now more than two hun-. hired women acting as directors cf important business concerns in-Eng land, Lady Rhondda said. She is, in her own words, "keen to see women . admitted to the stock exchange.” BANNED WHEAT COUNTIES NAMED — Adams County Third Among Best Wheat Producing Counties Os State Adams county ranked third among all counties of the in the production cf wheat this year, according to a bulletin just issued by the Ind-, iana Grain Deniers' Association.
