Lenore Is engaged to be married to Ned.

Lenore Is al § lowed to help the squaw with the \ housework, but Bess and Ned are [ driven by their master until they i fall' unconscious. | The prisoners are allowed to build I a cabin and. after it is finished.

When Doomsdorf becomes I Infatuated with Bess and makes ad ! vances to her Ned interferes. ! NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY “There’s no need of going far [ ther,’’ he said in his deep, rumbling I voice. “There was no need of even | coming here. You seem to be for \ getting, you two, where you ure—ail I the things I told you at first.’! He paused, and his voice had | dropped, and the tone was strange [ and even, dreadful to hear, when he | spoke [ too easy with you,” he went on. “I’ll j see that I correct that fault in the I future. You, Ned, made a serious j mistake when you Interfered in this j matter tonight. I*ll see if 1 can't | teach you to ke«jo your place. And | Bess —long ago I told you that your j body and soul were mine—to do with j what I liked. Yqu seemed to have forgotten—but I intend that you will call It to mind—again.” But Ned still faced him when he [ paused, eyes steadfast, his face an j Iron gray in the wan light. His train | lng had been hard and true, and he 1 still found strength to stand erect. “I want to tell you this—in reply,” j he answered in the clear, firm voice [ of one who has mastered fear. “We j know well enough what you can do to us. But that doesn’t mean that [ we’re going to yield to you—to every I one of your evil wishes. Life Isn't so pleasant to either of us that we’ll submit to everything in order to live. | No matter what you do to mo—l I know what I’U do to you If you try | to carry out your wicked [designs by ! force.” Doomsdorf eyed him calmly, but the smile of contempt was wholly gone from his lips. ’’You’ll show fight?” he asked. "With every ounce I’ve got! You I may master me—with every advan- I tage of weapons and physical | strength—but you’ll have to kill me first. Bess will kill herself before she’ll yield to you. A'ou won’t be bet ter off—you’ll simply have no one to j do your trapping for you. It isn't worth it. Doomsdorf.” ; He eyed them a moment, coolly and casually. When I want anything, Ned, I want It bad enough to pay all, I ve got for it,” he said in a remark ably even tone. “Don’t presume that I value your lives so much that I’ll turn ope step from my course. Be sides, Ned—you won’t be here!” Ned’s eyes widened, as he tried to read his meaning. Doomsdorf laughed softly in the silence. “You won’t be here!” he repeated. “You fool—do you think I’d let you get In my way? It will rest as it is to night. Tomorrow morning you start out to lend your traps—and you wijl tend Bess’ lines as well as your own. She will stay here—with me—from now on.” Ned felt his muscles hardening to steel. “I won’t leave her to you—” You won’t? Don’t make any mis take on that point. If you are not on your way by sun-up, you get a hundred —from the knout. You won’t be able to leave for some time after tha^ —but neither will you be able to interfere with what doesn't concern you. I’ll give you a few In the dawn—just as a sample to show what they’re like. Nor am I afraid of Bess killing herself.

Nov. 11. —The advance in the price of cotton during the past week, with the resulting enlivenment of the demand for eotton goods and the greater assurance of a higher level and more* certain demands for yarns and cloths, has forestalled a curtailment program in a large number of southern cotton mills and has brought encourage ment and hope to quite a number of cotton "mrl operators who were begin ning to be decidedly uncomfortable un der an accumulation of cloth and yarn manufactured from high priced cotton and unsalable except at a loss on the levels Vhieh have been existing for these products. Southern cotton mill men. as a gen eral thing, purchased considerable sup plies of cotton several months ago when the price was around 2N cents- They though that price would he maintained and most of them expected that it would be higher. Then came the slump. Not only in the price of cotton but also, of course, in tin* price of'cotton products. Buyers of cloth have Jjeen bears on the situation aud the demand for mill pro ducts has been exceedingly low for the past three months or more. The advance in the price of cotton some weeks ago gave heart to the southern mill operators and. feeling further assured that cotton would con tinued to operate full time, piling up their yarn or cloth in their warehouses until the prices of these products readi ed such a level as would warrant them in selling. Meanwhile New England ini'ls have curtailed drastically, hoping for aud expecting a <h*cline in cotton prices that would enable them to sell at the old level of prices prevailing for textile products. Cotton this section —There. She’ll stand a lot before i she’ll do that.” “That’s definite?” Ned ’asked. | “The truest words I ever spoke. > I’ve never gone back on a promise 1 yet.” , “And believe me. I won't go back I on mine. If that’s all you have to ■ say—” j “That’s quite all. Think it over , —you’ll find It isn’t so bod. And now—good night.” . He bowed to them, in mock polite . ness. Then he turned back into his cabin. , For a moment his two prisoners i stood inert, utterly motionless in the wan light. Ned started .tty turn to , her, still held by his own dark thoughts, but at the first glance of . her white, set face, he whirled in the • most breathless amazement It was in no way the stricken, terrified countenance that he had seen a few ! moments before. The Ups were firm, the eyes deep and strange; even in the half-light he could see her look , of inexorable purpose. ! Some great resolve had come to her —some sweep.ng emotion that NKD MOVED TOWARD HER, REACHING FOR HER HANDS. might r>« akin to hope. Was she planning suicide? . Was that the meaning of this new look of Iron resolution in her face? He could con ceive of no other explanation: In self-tnfiic.ted death alone lay deliver ance from Doomsdnrt’s lust He dared not hope for any happier free dom. He reached groping hands to hers. “A'ou don't mean"—he gasped, hard ly able to make his lips move in speech—"you don’t Intend—?’’ “To kill myself? Not yet, by a * long way.” The girl’s hand slipped cautiously out from the pocket of her jacket, showing him what seemed to be a small, square box of tin. But the light was too dim for him to make out the words on the paper label. "1 got this from the shelf— just hs we left the cabin ’’ The hopeful tones m ner voice vras the happiest sound Ned had beard since he had come to the Island / “What Is it?” be whispered. ’’Nothing very much —but yet— a chance for freedom. Come Into the cabin where we cqn scratch a match.” j They moved Into the newer but of logs, and there Bess showed him the humble article in which lay her hopes. It was merely a tin ot_fine snuff from among Doomsdorf’s per sonal supplies. xx Arm TALKING in an undertone, not to be heard through tbe log walls. Bess and Ned made their hasty plans for deliverance. , * Here, in the cabin they occupied, the assault must be made. The rea son was simply that their plan was ■ - - -1, -1 - - ? - * almost without exception are confident 1 that that price of cotton will not go lower for a year or more. They are more hopeful of dividends on their operations than they have been for months. Their optimism is shared by business men generally because the absence of the cot ton mill payroll during periods of cur tailment or strikes hits business in all lines a staggering blow. Even the small business man has recently come into a pretty thorough appreciation of the fact that any distiess or disruption in industry or in agriculture affects the welfare of every other man in the com- • munity, particularly the merchant. Use of Migratory Birds as Food Barred ! By Law. Washington, Nov. 5. —Hotels restau rants and other eating places may not serve wild ducks or geese, or other migra tory edible birds for food, the Depart ment of Agriculture announces. The mi gratory bird treaty act and regulations make it unlawful to buy or sell such birds, except under proper permits for scientific or propagating purpo**‘ s - Migratqry water fowl raised in captiv ity under proper federal and state per mits may be bought aud sold and served n hotels and restaurants, but this does lot apply to wild birds.

The plan, on perfection, was really jg very simple. As soon as Lenore g came, she would be sent back to the 5 cabin to bring Doomsdorf. She would need no further excuse than 1 that Bess had asked to see him: | Ned’s knowledge of the brute’s pay* I chology told him that. Ned would be waiting in the a newer cabin when Lenore and | Doomsdorf returned. He would im- I ' mediately excuse himself and pass S out the door, at the same instant §1 that Bess extended a chair for a I>oomsdorf. And the instant that he "us seated Bess would dash a hand*' S ful of the blinding snuff into his eyes. _ Ned’s axe leaned Just without the 9 . cabin door. Doomsdorf would notice j| it as he went in: otherwise his suspi- a cions might be aroused. And in his §| first instant of agony and blindness, 3 Ned would seize the weapon, dash § back through the door, and make gs tile assault. i They had scarcely perfected the a , plan before Lenote appeared, on the 9 way to her .cot. Just an instant she m halted, her face and golden head a J 5 , glory in the soft light, as she regard* a ed their glittering eyes. Ned moved toward her, reaching for her hands. For u breath he ja gazed into her lovely face. “Bees if wants you to go—and tell Dooms* |1 dorf —to come here,” he told her. His 1| voice was wholly steady, every word § clearly enunciated; if anything, *he M spoke somewhat more softly and If evenly than usual. “Just tell him g| that she wants to see him.” 3. She took her eyes from his, glanc* a ing about with ucmiei.aka.ble appro* g hens ton. St Her searching eyes suddenly 3 turned in fascinated horror to Bess. P Standing near the so that the room might not be filled with f§ the dust of the snuff and thus con* p vey a warning to Doomsdorf, she p was emptying the contents of tbs ||' snuff-box into her handkerchief. Her 3. eyes gleamed under fieri brows, and H her hands were wholly steady. 1§ Lenpre shivered a little, her hands 3 pressing Ned’s. “What does it mean— V’ "Liberty! That’s what it means, if 3 the plan goes through.” For the || first time Ned’s voice revealed sup* 9 pressed emotion. Liberty! He spoke a tiie word as a devout man speaks of §§ (lod. “It’s the only chance—now or |> never,” he went on with perfect cold- |§' ness. “You’ve got to hold up and do §| your share—l know you can. If we 11 succeed — and we’ve got every chance 9 —it’s freedom, escape from thfa 3 island and Doomsdorf. If we fail, {3 it's likely death—but death couldn’t m be any worse than this. So we’ve 3 nothing to lose —and everything to f§ gain.” H by their ardor Lenore 4g turned back through the door. Her instructions were simple. The a easiest task of the three was hers. 9 Bess took one of the crude chairs, § her handkerchief—clutched as if she I had been weeping—in her iap. Ned j sat down in one of the other chairs, intending to arise and excuse him self the instant Doomsdorf appeared. His muscles burned under his skin. It was only about 50 yards to the cabin. If Doomsdorf came at all, it would be in the space of a few sec* onds. The door of the cabin closed be hind her, and Lenore wias alone with the night. Could she take the fighting chan os? 5. Could she rise above this awful first 8 fear: master it, scorn it, go her brave 9 way in the face of it? !§ But before ever she found her an- §j swer. she found herself at the cabla f| door. Listless, terrified almost to 9 the verge of collapse, she tarred thv a knob and opened the door. Dooms* S dorf had not yet gone to his blan* | kets: otherwise the great bolt of Irtm I would be in piace. He was still tit- f ting before the greet,' glowing sieve, |. dreaming his savage dreams. The L girl halted before him, lesmisg V against a chair. At first her tongue could hr.rdly p j shape the words. Her throat filled.
