There was no shade out- of-doors, for nothing grew in the streets, not even grass; its cinder yards. its board walls and iron roofs radiated waves of heat like those .from a stove. Late in the afternoon Ben Furlong entered the skating rink, paid his ad- mission at the turnstile, and. went' through. Here, at least, was a place to sit down out of the sun. Out of the whirling throng. upon the floor shot a figure; it was Ben's friend, the engineer of the Maddox rig. Ile rolled up to the bench where Furlong sat and collapsed upon it. "Whew! It's hard work haQin' a good time in this town," he panted. "Landed a job yet?" "I've got some prospects lined up. What's the matter? You fired, too?" "Naw! Maddox laid us off for the day. Miz' Durham brought us in." "Did Betty come with. her?" Ben eagerly inquired, The engineer shook his head; a grin spread over his face. "Say! You know how scared Tiller is of nitroglycer- ine?

"I Ilsisnno. Tiller, I rochon." Furlong frowned. For a while he listened inattentively to his co)'t on- ion, then he. rose and lett the rink, k, Conditions all over the oil aide, a he well knew, were unsettled, and he slid not relish the thought of 13...y out there alone in that te,1• ohou,.(; but even more disturbing was the tui t that Maddox propeeed to Cahoot. the Durham well. What riled the num? After some indecision Ben decided to warn Betty, It was none of his business, to be sure, but a word from her Blight induce the aunt to go slow- ly and perhaps save the cost of the weII. It would be criminal to leave her in ignorance of the risks she ran. He tried to hire a car to run back to the farm, but what few were for hire were out, and it was some time before he could discover a truck that was later going in that direction, Darkened Windows It was considerably after dark when Furlong left Opportunity; he had to walk the last three miles, so it was late bedtime when he finally arrived at the Durhain homestead, Evidently Betty was asleep; at any rate, the farmhouse windows were dark and Ben wondered how he could best awaken her without causing alarm. Visitors in the country at this time of night were not common. He decided to call softly from outside her window, so he closed the gate quietly behind him and made his way around the house. He paused in surprise when lie had turned the corner of the building, for the kitchen door was open. A momen- tary panic swept over hint.; then he drew a breath of relief, for at that mo- ment he heard the girl's muffled voice. "Who's there?" she cried. He opened his lips to speak reassur- ingly, but the sound died in his throat, for inside Betty's room he heard a man's voice, then a. star, a movement. This was followed by a crash, as if a chair had been overturned, then a scream.. Furlong uttered a shout; he leaped forward. Some marauder had entered the house just ahead of him, Incred- ible as it seemed, he had arrived bare- ly in time. Railwayworraan Toronto Housewife, 88, Tells Clf Active Service With C. P. R.

There were hasty movemelits, the sounds of a struggle. Furlong had never been inside the front part of the house, but its plan was simple and he was guided by those shrieks of terror. The door to Betty's room was closed, but it opened when he wound the knob. He glimpsed the dim square of a window opposite the silhouetted against it he saw the girl herself, then blackness engulfed him. The, next he knew.

"To carry over the ideal that `woman's place is in the home,' when she cannot now. function in the home as she once did may snake for her a parasitic, non -pro• ductive existence formerly open to a small privileged :minority,?' adds Dr. Elliott, "There is no reason to sup- pose that If woman's contribution to family support Is now made under dif- ferent conditions family life will thereby be jeopardized, Family life has also been tluderging change as to ,WAYS' REPAIR RAGCED ■ ■r • tants V S That deadly weariness that drags you down all day is probabiy a sure sign of nerve -starvation. at'rengtnen your nerves with PIIOSFEDINE.

It is quite conceivable that the family as a group of interesting individuals may be reconstructed around central inter- ests other than productive activity hi the home. Some Men Good Gooks "The idea that a man's ego cannot stand the effect of his wife's working outside the home is at once suspect. Has he never been aware of her work- ing in the home or is he unwilling to have his control of her activity thus diminished?_ "It is true that if women work out. side the home they cannot assume the whole of the work inside as well. A great many men are by native endow- ment better suited to be cooks than women and they might stay at home more, willingly if they ate their, own, rather than their wives' oeoking. A great many homes would be more tastefully furnished and many 'child- ren would be nlog'e becomingly dres- sed if fathers insteed of mothers had made selectioni of furniture and of ' clothes.
