Mrs, Eden was hurriedly putting on make-up, screwing up her face, then rubbing it off again, her dressing table was powdered thickly and she had knocked over a bottle of bay- rum, which meandered in a sticky stream across a 'lace mat, Every- thing she did was in a hurry, she took up one article after another and set it down again with a muttered curse, pulled open drawers, sought vainly for a pair of silk - stockings without ladders in them and for clean gloves, turning everything topsy-tury as she failed to find what she sought, "Why didn't he let me know, then I could have been ready?" she mur- mured, getting more flustered at every -gecond, ."Sure you are not tired of wail- ing? she shouted.

The next moment Lily : Eden herself came into the = room, smilingly, flushed, and reeking of perfume. He addressed himself to! her: "I say, does Daphno live hére " he asked, and saw by the astonishment in her blue eyes that his query had! taken her by surprise, !

"Well, I'm dash- ed," she exclaimed, 'Mean to say Daphne is coming here tonight of all nights in the year?" He shook his head, "lI saw her, I am confident it was Daphne,". be said soberly, "She was not coming here, though, 1t looked as though she were going away." He thought of his car down below. Would Daphne recognize that? Of course not, There were thousands of Muitiple cars about -in London; ft was the most popular car of the day. Yet an uneasy feeling pursued him, and he wondered if by any possible chance Daphne might have come here, heard his voice, as he shouted back answers to Lily Eden whils she had heen dressing. . : Climbing into his seat, steering, carefully into the traffic, he watched. pedestrians as well as possible, but' gave it up at last, Instead he asked questions of Lily, and to his amaze: ment heard a garbled account of her meeting with Daphne at the solicit- or's office. "You see, I thought it was"over her dad's property they were advertis- ing, 1 always expected Richard might make money one day," she sald. "Instead of that, she's dropped into something, a bit of property somewhere. However, she's promised to get in touch with me, so I'm hop- ing something good will come of it, After all, blood is thicker than" water, fsn't it?" He winced, thinking of Daphne and this woman, * ¥* *® It was not a very successful meal, and he was not an entertaining com- panion, and except for the meal, which 'was a good one, Lily Eden would have preferred to 'stay at home, True, as she reflected after- wards, he had ot out 'of her the ad- dress of the solicitor's where she had met Daphne; equally true he had passed her a five-pound note to clear up her arrears of rent, which she had described to him so pitifully, but he had been most scrupulously particu- lar to explain that this had nothing whatever to do with the lighting: de- vice of which she had spoken. He had brought with him a copy of the Pur- chase Agreement, so that she should labor under no further misapprehen- sion, so he said, and although she re- garded this at first with suspicion, Lily Eden was no fool, and realized that he was speaking the truth, "At any rate, you will see, "Mrs. Eden, the whole matter is fair and square, = Had it been otherwise......"- he paused, and she saw his eyes.

Do it the way {men in all CANADIAN SCHOOLS (Bureau of Statistics) Schools and universities in Can 'ada claim about 3.5 per cent. of the national expenditure, and this may be considered as an indication of their importance in" the economic life of the country. Their'\weight as a social factor can not be as readily represented statistically, but the following considerations are of. in- terest in this connection: No other occupantional activity in the life of the country claims the daily attention of as many persons. Each years sees one-fourth of the population of Canada appearing in the classroom either as pupil . or teacher. There are about twice as many school children as there are farmers, and as many as there are other occupations com- bined. ! For almost ten years of his life, the Canadian child of today goes to school. If his actual attendance in months is considered, counting ten months as a school year, he, receiv- es eight-and a half years of school- ing, or about half as much again as his parents. As a formative influence the school can hardly be expected to approach the weight of the home. But in relation to other 'influences its weight is heavy. If from the time: that he starts to school 'he spends an hour .and a half weekly in church, at the theatre, at "the athletic stadium, reading the daily press, or listening to the radio, the young Canadian of today will have to live to the age of 90 years in or- der to spend as much time with any one of these as he spends in school, Puzzling Universe Its Inconsistencies Are Still A Mystery To Scientists The outer nebulae ,are rushing away at the rate of 12,000 miles a second. Assuming that we have here optical evidence that the uni. verse is expanding like a soap bub- ble, in accordance 'with the latest fa- shion in relativist circles, it is easy to calculate when the process began 'and how long ago the great act of creation began. The answer proves to be ten: thousand million yéars, But the new school of astro-physi- cists contends that the actual age of the universe must be a hundred times greater. It takes that long for the stars to radiate their mass away by the annihilation of their mass and its conversion into energy. How can the universe be younger than the stars of which it is composed? The discrepancy presents one of the ma- jor problems of physical science. An English student, H, J. Walke, comes forward with an explanation that seems. worth considering, He suggests. that the stars may be ra- diating not simply light, heat and electromagnetic energy in a suicidal conversion of their mass, but that they are ridding themselves of actual matter in the form of fons or incom- plete atoms, some of which are res- ponsible for the manifestations of cos- mic rays. : . The explanation is ingenious, but it requires - experimental verifica- tion, How that is possibie at a time when~the very nature of the cosmic rays is still the subject of much- dis- cussion, it is difficult to see. When we know what the cosmic rays really are the mystery may be solved, Nobody's Business But Your Own If you cannot afford a new suit, you can keep the old one cleaned and pressed. If you have not the cash for new shoes, polish the old ones until you can see your face in them. If you have to economize, do not let it be on laundry bills. Sometimes a fellow obtains a job because people are sorry for him; but those cases are exceptional. As a rule the man who is sorry for a youth gives him a quarter and saves the job for the young chap who does not appeal to his sympathies. For that reason it does not pay to advertise yourself as hard-up.

HALF CENTURY OF ~~ FIRE STILL BURNS (The Literary Digest) | tr------ Hope was raised recently that new efforts would be made to conquer an underground fire which has been raging and spreading for fifty years, hag destroyed more than $50,000,000 worth of coal, and has devastated parts of the countryside above it. At the moment legal complications seem likely to prevent the projected expenditure of $500,000 by the PWA to sniother the blaze. - The start of the fire dates back to one of the most bitter labor. struggles in American history. In the early 'eighties Ohio's first chap- ter of the United Mine Workers Union was 'organized in. New Straitsville with a 100 per cent, membership. ' In 1884, wage reductions precipi- tated a great strike in the Hocking Valley and surrounding coal-fields. Further reductions' were aceompani- .| ed by violence, One night after the strike had been in progress for six months, a group of miners seized loaded mine- cars on a tipple at New Straitsville, poured several barrels of oil on them, and ignited it. The blazing carriers were run in- to the bowels of the mine, a mile under the hill, In less than 24 hours the whole entry was ablaze. With- in a-week the fire had spread out of control, The many air-channels in the burning hills helped fan" the blaze. Today valuable forests in the vicin- ity of the town have been killed or stunted "bythe heat, smoke, and fumes which seep up through the - great crevices' in the-earth opened by the intense heat beneath. ». The entire territory is networked 4 with cave-ins and apparently bot- tomless holes from which belch gas- es which, in many cases, have over- come persons in the vicinity. At night the glow illuminates the hillsides. In rainy weather, or heavy fog, fumes float under closed doors. Smoke or gas is 'ever pres ent "in the surrounding homes. Just 'behind the new $80,000 high school' building, a dozen houses were aban- doned two years ago when their foundations sank into the. pits of the inferno. : The new schoolhouse itself began to settle when a coal-vein under it was ignited. The fire had to be dipped out by veteran miners to save the structure, Directly in front of the -school- house on the New _Straitsville- Shawnee State highway the toad sank five feet. A nearby producing oil-well was hemmed in by clouds of smoke from the fire 50 feet under- ground. A huge crack extends all the way across a ~ mile-long hill near™ the town. Those 'brave enough to ap- proach the crater's egde can see the conflagration raging in its | depthdi Once a horse fell into the chasm apd. was instantly consumed. At the\edge of the community, fire bursy through a cistern over night.- The- owner the next morning found the cistern full of flame, and the foundation of his home sinking into the pits. "The house was torn down, 2 ; One day the blaze broke through into a small working mine on the New Straitsville highway, forcing the miners to flee for their lives. This condition discourages - efforts to tap the rich mine to twelve-foot strata of coal. The great Hocking fields, which produce a tenth of the supply, are in the fire's path, and due for destruction unless the flames are put out or checked. In recent weeks, new outbreaks have 'occurred "in territory hitherto considered exempt. The menace now reacheg out over an area of six square miles, and ig fast nearing the main street of New Straitsville. Repeated futile attempts have been made in the last half century to control the fire. At one time the course of » creek was diverted: into the opening of a passageway, and the water poured vainly into the tunnels, Cement walls have been sunk inte the earth, but without success, All known ¢revices have been sealed and steam forced into the great labyrinths, , Recently Washington assigned engineers to report on thé feasi- bility of putting .500 nien to work on .
