Yet she felt no urge to turn back. She had made one investment through the bank and now was exploring new fields. She asked tor Mr. Sanford and this time he was at his desk. Her naivete must have amus°d him, for more than once she noticed a twinkle in his large blue-gray eyes. “I’m through with Pure Soap,” Eve told him “I don't want to overdo any one thing, you see. I thought I might like to try one of the industrials. Will you tell me about them?” Mr. Sanford told her about the Industrials and agreed with her that it might be well to invest in one of them. He advocated Atlas Coupler. Eve placed her money on Atlas Coupler. As she left the office she wondered vaguely what a coupler was. She had not felt like asking Mr. Sanford. At any rate, it was listed on the stock exchange. She noticed this when Charles brought the stock edition newspapers into the office that afternoon. Eve liked the atmosphere of the brokerage house. She longed to feel the same ease of manner displayed by the men she saw trading there. Usually, she asked Arlene to go with her, since she felt timid about appearing alone among a group of men devoted to watching market quotations being chalked on the board. “I certainly get a great kick out of coming up here.” Arlene assured her. “If father could only see me now! He thinks any one who invests in stocks is bound for perdition.” o tt tt TUESDAY was pay day at Bixby’s and the following Wednesday found Arlene in Mr. Sanford's office with Eve. Arlene was being initiated into making her first investment. “I think it would be son to margin.” she commented when the methods of investing were explained to her. So Arlene also bought Atlas Coupler. To Eve it had always been necessary to share each new experience with someone. Only after confiding in another and reliving the event did she get the utmost joy from it. Hence her spirits were greatly exhilarated after Arlene made her investment and they watched the trend of the market together. Atlas Coupler had long lain dormant, Eve learned after looking up data concerning it. After the patent rights had been secured there had been a lengthy, uncertain delay in marketing the device, owing to the power of the holding company behind the coupler that was to be displaced by Atlas. But now contracts had been signed and manufacturing had begun. tt tt u EVE really longed to tell Dick of her investments, but she felt she could score a greater triumph by waiting until her gains were substantial. Eve felt these days an almost overwhelming sense of hope and expectancy. She attributed it to the apparently established upward trend of Atlas Coupler, but it might have been born of the springtime. “Dick!” called Eve softly from the

shabby old front steps where she was sitting with her arms locked around her knees. Dick, lounging in a gay steamer chair on the lawn below, looked up at her. The moon was sending beams of light through the newly-leafed maple trees and fantastic shadows danced on Eve's face. “I Just love this place!" she declared. Dick blew a curling wreath of smoke rings from his pipe upward toward the star-sprinkled sky. Tl.en he answered slowly, contentedly, “We'll never find a better place in the city.” “I wish we could stay here forever!” Eve went on. “I mean happy and peaceful, just as we are now.” “U-um!” responded Dick. And then Miss McElhinney, one of the teachers who lived upstairs, came out on the porch. “It s such a gorgeous evening and you look so snug here! I hope you don't mind if I Join you.” a a a SHE perched herself on the newel post, nearer to Dick than to Eve. Before many minutes had elapsed she was off on a monologue which threatened to continue for hours. “You see,” Miss McElhinney confided in her slow- voice that held a suggestion of a lisp, “I do like to come out of my character! All day long I have to be the stem ‘schoolmarm - and after hours I long to be just the little girl I feel!” Dick coughed but refrained from comment. Eve studied the newcomer with some misgiving. Apparently her line was flattery. “I think ” Miss McElhinney continued. facing Dick directly, “that you are wonderful to accomplish all you do. Building that beautiful theater! And giving orders to so many men. Engineering must be so thrilling. I use to watch you on stormy winter mornings as you waded through the snow to get your car. It was so cold I hated even to get out of bed.” Presently the girl’s voice dropped to a lower, more confidential tone that seemed to exclude Eve. She moved nearer to Dick. Twice he turned and tried to draw his wife into the conversation. Eve, angered by Miss McElhinney’s impudence and irritated at Dick for not discouraging her chatter, answered in monosyllables and presently rose abruptly and went indoors. When Dick did not follow, as she had hoped he would, she went to bed, though it was still early. Half an hour later she heard Dorothy McElhinney's husky laugh as she bade Dick goodnight in the hall. Eve fancied there was an. exultant and excited note in that laugh. Dick paused at the bedroom door with the comment that the weather had changed and a sharp breeze was blowing in from the lake. When Eve did not answer he closed the door softly and settled himself for the evening with hi* pipe and a book. He had made no apology, no explanation. Eve, nervous and tired, cried herself to sleep. (To Be Continued) fighT on child labor National Group Wants NRA Provision Extended to Beet IndustryBy f'nitnl Prca* WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.—Demand that child labor be eradicated from the sugar beet fields has been made both upon the NRA and the farm relief administration.

The question raised Is whether the labor involved is agricultural or industrial, farm labor being exempt from she NRA anti-child-la-bor rules.

As the native boy. screaming, leaped into the air, the pigmies instantly disappeared Into the bush. The boy stiffened, fell to the ground, twitched for a moment . . . then lay still. Parker bent over him, horrified. The safari boys were scrutinizing the bush all around.

Suddenly one called cut and, pointing, cried: “Bwana! Bwana!” There was a faint stirring in the bush and a glimpse of something undetermined. Parker raised his rifle and fired at the disappearing object. One of the little pigmies burst screaming out of the bush.

The pigmy ran off rapidly through the jungle’.' Parker fired at him with his other barrel and missed. By this time all the pinheads had taken to their heels. Parker called excitedly to Riano: “Get him, Riano—or we’ll 'have the whole tribe down on us.”

Riano fired once, but he, too, missed. As the little men disappeared. Parker turned, expecting to see his daughter. “Jean, you'd better take shelter . . he began. And then he saw she was not there! Sudden dismay overwhelmed him. ‘ What . . . JEAN!” he cried in consternation.
