LARRY COLLINS â€" newspaper reporter, hunting the murderers of his brother. MIKE BENTLEY â€" wealthy rancher, knew too much about •uto accidents. LAST WEEK: Larry Is caught in the hangar. Bentley imprisons him in a cellar, orders his men to steal Hayhook calves ar.d make it appear Larry is the thief. At the Hayhook the next morning, Bent- tey gets a call saying that Collins has been caught with the stolen calves. The Colonel is determined to hang Larry. The Colonel and Barnes go to the truck, promising to come by for Larry at midnight. Monnie goes to Bentley'j, deter- mined "to tell that calf stealer what I think of him."' CHAPTER XIII Lan-y sat in the semi-darkness of the basement rooai that formed his prison, frying to decide what Bentley intended to do with him. It was evident that the narcotic smuggler hoped to avoid killing Larry himself, but it was equally clear that he would never permit Larry to be taken to trial for cattle theft. Larry knew too much about Bentley and his operations: to re- main alive. Bentley was evidently hatching some plot to guarajitee Larry's permanent removal. The man who iiad planned Hugh's "accident" could invent another just as • ef- fective. Larry thought of Monnie. What- ever story Bentley told, she would not believe that Larry had turned cattle thief. If he " had to die. it was comforting to know tliat she would always love him, always have faith in him. He was glad he had told her why he h<Kl come back to Texas. Poihaps feeutiey woul(f.^^->erplay his iiaud. But Chrry didn't want to die'. He wanted to live.

Larry rushed to her, brusliing past Bentley, caught her in his arms. She strug- gled to free herself, and not suc- ceeding slapped him full in thfi face. "Let me goâ€" you cow thief!" The words hurt more, than tho blow. "Don't ever speak to me again. I just came here to tell you ioiw much I despise you â€" " Larry stared at her, uncompre- hending. "You â€" Oh 1 hate you!" she con- iiftued. "You come to the ranch, postxi a.s a friend â€" just to get a chance to steal cattle. The or- dinary rustler doesn't sink that low. And you made love to me â€" Liesâ€" all of it â€" Lies! " She drew closer to Bentley, link- ed her arm in his. "I even thought I cared a little for him, Mike.

"I had him spotted from the minute I saw him. 1 warned youâ€" Tfi^ fellow's a slick one." "You don't know bow slick he really is, Mike. Do jou know who Larry Collins is â€" why he is here?"

To Admit Women To Bar Long Fight For Recognition Within Sight of Fulfillment in French-Canada Members of the General Coun- cil of the Provibce of Quebec Bai-, at a meeting in Quobec City early in March voted in ft voi- o: admit- ting women to the practice of law in the prt)vince of Quebec. The motion to grant the request ot several women who demanded admission first defeated by a show of hands, was finally carried 18-11 after a secret vote. MUST PASS PROVIXCIAL HOUSE Hon. Wilfrid Girouard, baton- uier of the Quebec Bar and Provin- cial Crown Prosecutor, will submit the lawyers' jecision to Quebec Government before it becomes law, it must pass the Provincial Par- liament. Francis Kauteui, batounier of the Montreal Bar, and Perrault Cas- grain, K.C., batonuier of the Low- er St. Lawrence Bar and member of the Legislative Assembly fo.-- Gasne North, were the most ardent rhampioDS for the admission of women to the bar. Cork table mats are wonderfull- iisefu!. but they do get dingy ii. time. Hub the dirty ones with flu ; sandpaper and they will come an like new. Make yourself a silver-eleaiiia^' cloth like this: Mix one te<i- spoon plate powder or jewel' jr-,' rouge, one tablespoon cloudy am monia. and a small teacup of watoi- together.

Beauty In Spite Of The Sniffles 'Vou Can Make Yourself Rea- sonably Presentable Tven If Vou Have a Bothersome Head Cold y best thing to do whea y* I :i,iv<) a cold U to take the dortor's advice and stay in bed un- til you get rid of it. If this isn't possible, however, the next thing you can do is to figure out a way to make yourself reasonably presentable before you let anyone outside the family see you. It's e 'Jgh of an Imposition to subject others to your coughing and -Bueezing without subjecting them to a red-eyed, shiny-nosed swollen-lipped appearance also. FRESHENM.NC HAIR Thank.i to dry shampoo, it's a simple matter to freshen up your halr. even thougtf* washing It is against the doctor's rules. With your hair clean and free from oilâ€"\t: not beautifully set â€" you <:an tOTpyour attention to your slightly sw^Iln facp. Kirsf,- rinse your eyes with a s(,;)thir.g lotion, fhen'put lii-' part.s on tlffem for a few seconds. Your Uiitural iucithftlion wil' be to use ice cold pads. But doit'i.,'V{r^m ones will decrease the swoITetT arSas. Cold ones won't. REMOVE STALE POWDEUl By all means use a makeup film to keep powder in place. Rouge your cheeks lightly. If y u have to use a handkerchief constantly, apply indelible lipstick and apply It ever so sparingly. Removing old makeup and putting on nr-,-.- powder frequently will help to maintain a .spic and span appear- ance. Slip Cover Makes New Studio Couch At Least It Looks Entirely Different â€" Use Striped Fab- ric For Cover You can give your studio couch a ne'W square look when you make that next slip cover. Its a tricky idea and easy to exe- ciite. You chaage the appearance b;- using a striped fabric for the cover. Y'oii match stripes into diamonci- sliaped squares on the top of the cover, but make the stripes run- horizontally around the sides. Eight yards "&f 50-inch fabric will be enough material. The cost will be about six dollars if you do the simple sewing at yo'.ir machine anj make use of the attachments. O.V YOUR SEWING ilACBINE For a t'ourbysix couc'a. cut four square pieces of equal size to cover the top, allowing -^n inch on all sides for seams. In matching the pieces, allow the stripes of two squares to go one way, the others at right angles. Stitch these to- gether half an inch from the edge with flat inside seams. For the skirt, cut two 30-by-22- inch pieces so that stripes are horizontal along the il2-inch sides. Then cut four pieces the same length but only 37 inches wide. Stitch two of these into one strip 74 inches long and 22 inches wide and the remaining two pieces the same way. NoV you can join the four long .-tnd short strips and stitch them with the cording foot attachment into a bos-like arrangement. The skirt is joined to the top with a corded edge. Overdriven Wife Radine Carlson ••of Duluth, -Minn., charged in a divorce ac- tion that her husband, Anton, treated her "like a horse," to wit: She said she carries in the wood and chops it; milks eovps and raises cattle, takes care of and does all the work on their 10-acre farm . including the housework, and then goes out and does day work whenever she can.

CHAMBERS Homey Dishes For The Family From I'iuistmas on we have been doing a gi'eat deal of discuss- ing about Company dishes and sug- gesting menus tor St. Valentine's, and St. Patrick's Day. It seems then fit aud proper, that we should consider now a few homey dishes both for economy and health's sake. VEGETABLE CASSEROLE Place in a casserole alternate layers ot carrots, potatoes and ou- ions. sprinkling both layers with salt and pepper and grated cheese. Some chopped parsley added to each layer also adds zest. Cover with scalded milk until even with the top layer. Cover and bake in a slow oven for one hour. Be sure to sprinkle some grated cheese on top â€" and dots of butter. This dish stands high in food merit â€" for the vegetable juices are retainedâ€" the adding of the milk is helping to keep up the fajnily milk iiuota and it is economical. Served with bacon or cold meat, it makes a perfect balanced meal. IRISH STEW & DUMPLINGS Melt 2 tablespoons .shortening in frying pan la deep one It possible). Add 1 lb. of round steak cut ii: inch size cubes. Brown the meat well, then add -l cups of watci-. Simmer until tender which takes aibout one hour. Season to tasto and according to the family's lik- ing. Aihl 2^4 tablespoons of flou-. mixed in '4 cup water and cool; until thickened. Add one can (large) of condensed vegetabl-- soup. Mix well and heat again. The standard dumpling batter is made by mixing 2 oups siftyd flour, 3 teaspoons baking powdv;- and \ cup milk. Drop by spoon- fuls on top of the boiling stew. Cover and steam for \t> minutes. Serve at once. APRICOT BROWN BREAD Most hostesses prefer a fancy bread I'or an accompaniment to their party salads, serving this bread and the muffins foUowins. 1 cup chopped dried a4)ricots 11^3 cups sour or buttermilk i tablespoons shortening Vit cup sugar 1 egg 1J« cups Kellogg's All-Bran 2 cups flour :; teaspoons Calumet Baking Powder Va teaspoon soda Vi teaspoon salt '4, teaspoon nutmeg ^ cvv chopped nut meats Soak apricots in milk about 15 minute.

One Certificate Monthly Urged National Campaign Charrman of War Savings Subscription Drive Says That's The Av- erage Cash Contribution Each Canadian Should Make To War Effort Walter P. Zeller, national cam- paign chairman of the Buy-War- Savings Certificates campaign, bus declare<l that an average cash sub- scription _=hoiU(l amoimt to 15. Oil per month regular!.^. tStamps have never been intended as anything more ^than a means of enabling children and people with very low- incomes to purchase war savinj;s certificates on tlie instalment plan). Five per cent of the average bread-winner's income was not, he thought, too much to ask as an !DV"stment in war savings to sup- port the country's war effort. MAXIMUM EFFORT The dominion-; war effort, he pointed out, is to be the maximum that the people of Canada can con- tribute toward a British victory. There is no other measure for it. The task of financing it mi^t be placed on the same tooting and war savings are a vital feature. Canadians who contribute their share of support iu this way can only satisfy themselves .and the ueeds of the situation by investing every cent they can spai-e. Those who felt that the purchase of a few war savings stamps would meet their obligation had a wroni; conception of the wiiole situation, he said. The committees appeal is for thp purchase f certiifoates, not stamps â€" the purchase of ar. many certificates regular'y as et,ch individual can pay for out of his earnin.ars. ^HE finest baking â- â€¢â€¢ results are made easy by Calumet's double- action, \ which permits you to use less. \ â-  Contiuuous leaveiiin;: U the \ secretâ€" during the mixiug and in the oven.
