It was a horrible thought Over at the community house, SO yards away, the windows and doors had been flung open. For some reason the usual droning hum bf conversation was stilled. Inside, a person was talking. Hte voice was raised a little, though he waa making some sort of speech to the men. Occasionally, as ha paused, Patricia heard a low rumble from the listeners, a muffled outburst at surprise, or anger, or both; but the noise always died down quickly aa the man took up hte speech again. The voice sounded to her like Warren's. She stopped plucking at the bark and listened. The voice was Warrens. Unable to make out what he waa saying, she left the pine and stumbled nearer the community house. A few distinguishable words came drifting out to her then: "Tarlton radium lake disappearance " , In iplte of her faintness she knew that Warren waa putting across some bold stroke with those prospectors. He must have gono straight from her cabin to tho Den. Thia must be the something Important which he had mentioned, with elation in hia tones.

Over the heads of the miners Patricia could hear his sharp words distinctly. He spoke in a curt emotionless way that waa more devastating than any bombast or ranting. For almost a year, he said, Tarlton has kept you men here, without money or clothes or anything except empty promises. He persuaded you. if not Indeed browbeat you. into not selling me your claims.

Of the many canned fruits that might be used start with the favor- ite of the family, whether it be apricots, peaches, loganberries, cherries or what have you. The syrup from the fruit can be used as the sauce for the cobbler just as it is, or it can be thickened and extra seasonings added, such aa a bit of cinnamon, lemon or nutmeg.
