Batch rushed in a little later. alarm written all over his hand- some freckied face. The nae-usage had been that Mrs. Temple wanted him at once at one of the worst ad- dresses on'Avenue A. He sighed with relief when he saw Charity, a big apron covering her golden dress, bending over Mrs. Brown. He had been afraid Charity was ill, hsd been hit by a car, or met with foul

a .

There wasn't time for: asking questions. He gave Charity a quick smile and turned to the moaning woman on the bed. Charity felt herself dismissed, and went out to stand with Mrs. O'Brien in the little kitchen, her eyes wet, aching with sympathy for Mrs. Brown.

It ‘ only a few seconds un- til there was a wail from the bed- room. Mrs. O'Brien Jumped up. "Sure, 'tis the new baby, God bless it," she said as she and Charity hurried t0 the bedroom to offer their services to the doctor.

A little later Charity found Mr. [Brown sitting wearily in the wheel . chair, his eyes closed. She spoke 1 softly. Brown, you have a new son." u

The man opened his eyes slowly. seeming almost too tired and heart- sick to expend that much eflort. "It's not right-not right," he said slow- ly, bringin’ little kids into the world like this to be put out into the streets, to starve to death. Me-tled to a wheel chair, with another mouth to feed."

Charity knelt beside him and said soothingly,. “You haven't anything to worry about any more. I'm going to takegcare of your family ‘mm you're well. I'll get the best doctor in New York to look at your back.

A little of one: and wony left his face ,a.nd Charity went again to the bedroom door. She knocked softly. "Is Mrs. Brown all right?"

Mrs. Brown answered. "Sure I'm Just flne, dear,” she called weakly-

Batch opened the door. grinning tiredly, "Come in, Nursie." He sank into a chair wearily. "So this is the way you're spendlnz your time new. young lady."

There was no mistaking the sd- miratlon, as well as the amusement in his eyes as they rested omchar- lty standing beside Mrs. Browns bed smiling down at her. She had shed the big apron and was res- plendent in her gay new gold dress-

Mrs. Brown reached over to take charity's hand convulsively. I don't even know you!’ Ilflme- 35-1 guess you're nn angel sent to 11B from heaven."

Charity shook her head. and 108$ s little smile touched her 1195- "I" I'm Mis Jones. No one ever heard of an angel named Jones."

Batch grinned, but he said al- most seriously, “And the F9859“ 91 these is-—Charity."

Suddenly chmty Jumped. It WM nine o'clock.‘ And she'd Dmmmd Doug to go to dinner and the theatre._'1'helr first date-and shed e- pletely forgotten about it! What would- Douz think?

INSTALMENT 19

It was after nine o'clock when Charity, breathless from hurryin! back to keep her date with D0113. let herself into the penthouse.

"sylvia", she called to the maid as she ran through the livlns room, ‘tell Mr. Temple I'll be ready in a few minutes"

“Mr. Tiemple has gone out." Syl- via followed her into the bedroom wondering why Charity Moped and looked so distressed. "He walt- ed until after eight o'clock. ‘H1011 a young lady called and I believe he said he was going to Long Island, madame."

"Oh," Charity set down on her bed, feeling suddenly sick with dis- appointment and worry. She want- ed to ask the maid if her husband had seemed angry. But of course that wouldn't do. Naturally he would be angry. How could he tinderstand her standing him up the first tilne he asked to take her out? Yanner had called again and‘ he'd gone out to make up with her after their quarrel!

Charity had not realized how ex- hausted she was after her ordeal at the Brown's. She dismissed Sylvia and slipped into s negligee and her old comfortable bedroom slippers. They were a blessed relief 51w- her new high heels. 'I‘hen she threw herself across the bed’ to think.

First her thoughts were of Doug- Kow could she possibly explain to him? She didn't want mm to know what she had been doing. He might not like it. Or he might laugh at her-which would be worse.

Then charity's thoughts turned to the events of the afternoon. Of newly hemmed merges-an“

‘Temple money , Having been the senior Temples private secretary, she knew of

sudialargepartoflfew York's slums. ‘ The building in which the

Browns llvedl was ready to n11 down. It ‘was unbelievably unsani-

than the other. ‘A of hungry little child- ren, disheartened ‘” rs. broken fathers. S‘ ' of suicide, people too ill to move being taken from, their beds and put into the street —starving, deserted babies.

By the time’ Gurity arrived at the Browns to see the melt-her and flicnewbaby sogreat washer compassion that she wanted to take the whole miserable little world‘ under her wing and mother it. Before she left to go to Simmons qiarity had changed the black universe of the Brown family into a place cf sunshine.

Mrs, Brown and the new bsbq were safe in the care of a nurse. The five older children were in- stalled in a day nursery, and the wheel-ohair-rldden father was on his way to the hospital where he could receive treatment for his back. _

charity's first impulse was to scatter money from one end of the block to the other. But she was "a business and knew a prac- tical way would have to be worked out to help thme deserving of aid and sympathy. Several families received baskets of groceries after the tall grave-eyed girl in the lovely gray-green gown and hat had vis- ited them. ‘rhcy didn't know her name. But, like Mrs. Brown, they said an angel must have been sent to them from heaven.

It was alfter lunch before Charity could bring herself to leave her families. She had been in and out of so many filthy hallways and ill- kep flats that she'd have to go home and bathe and dress before she went to see Mr. Simmons.

At home she learned Doug had not been back, even to sleep. She Jumped into her tub and hurried into her clothes. She didn't feel like eating. but made herself take a little tea and toast. She asked Sylvia in call and make sure Nfr. Simmons would be in, and was xe- lieved to hear that the lawyer would be delighted to see her about four o'clock.

Charity smiled to herself when she found she had automatically gone to the side door of the Wall Street Trust Company building "marked “Employees only". she had gone in that way so many hundreds of times that it seemed the natural thing to do. Of course she did not have her old key. Wihen she knocked it W88 01d Pat, the janitor, who opened the door and barred the way with his corpulent figure.

"I'm sorry. miss? he said, with- out wei-ting to learn Charityk busi- ncsn. “We ain't got no jobs."

charity's eves danced with amusement. Pat didn't know her. She tried to say seriously: "Couldn't I have a. Job as your assistant? I can sweep and scrub floors."

Pat tried to look stern but a little smile turned‘ up the corner of his mouth. "Don't go vampln‘ me now, muss. I aintthe one that dpesthe _\lhirin' of the help." ‘ '

Suddenly Charity threw her arms around the old Irishman and gave him s. tight squeeze, saying‘, "Oh, Pat-don't you know nae?" -

He stepped back and looked at her closely, shaking his head. That I do not, but your voice sounds a little. familiar. "Glory-be! It-its Miss Jones."

Charity hsd never seen Pat so flustercd. She laughed and med to put him at ease. "It's the hair cut, Pat. I hardly know myself. How have you been?"

"mine, Mia Joules-or. I mean Mrs. Temple. Sure and I'm glad to set eyes on you." ,

He stepped bsck to survey her the better, shaking his head. "Don't you look grand, now! Sure I never wouidhavekrwwnyouinauiilllon years all fixed up like c posy."

Charity grinned when he bent over to whisper loudly, “Come in and burn the tabby cats up-wss Jones. Just let ‘em get a look at the new rigginfi"

That was an ordeal Charity dreaded. But she lcnew she could not appear at the bank without

Dr. Cecil Benoit. maker of well-known Ila-club's worm has written to several of the older foxmen in the province with refer- ence to his wrmicide cspuslss. Be claims that tape worm, which is not at present common in Prince Edward Island. is very much on the increase in for: in certain states

may gain a foothold in Prince ward Island so that‘ it ls well to‘ be on one's guard against it."

The Doctor believes that fox ranches would be well advised to make freer us of his No. l capsules for adults. He claims that in addi- tfon to driving out the round worm they are also effective for hook- worms and tapeworms. He quotes a recent letter florn Ed Fromm stet- 1118 that lest f‘ ‘ ‘ he employed 12,500 of the No. 1 size using them in Drefererma in other forms of Worm capsules.

018N118 Smith. Charlottetown, certainly threw a bombshell into the meeting of the silver Fox Ex- hibitors’ Association when he men- tioned that a party of tourists were on the way here with a. dog that had recently recovered from dis- temper. Visions of a few years back arose in front of almost everyone present. They thought again or the days when the silent terror that kilns. passed through ecch fox ranchers mind particularly those in the vicinity of Summersidc and Kensington, they knew not the day not the hour that the dred foe dis- temper would strike cnd decimste their herds.

There was perfect unarninlty of Oliinion as to the necessity of im- Dressing on the powers that be the importance of taking measures to safeguard our valuable industry.

The writer had s conversation last evening with Willard Kelly, one of our foremost importers of fox feeds. "How is it, Willard," we asked, "that fresh tripe can be sold to a rancher in Edmonton for 1 3-4 cents and it costs 4 1.2 cents here?" “The main thing is the freight rate," said Willard. "It is 1 l-2 cents from Winnipeg and probably 2 cents a pound from Edmonton. In addition there would be the cost 01' freezing and bOXlng and extra cost for icing the car. Really, it is not so much the cost that is bothering us now but the difficulty of buying at all. I have several cars booked up but they Won't last 1011B. and after that there is no real certainity of a continued SUDDIY- All meats are scarce, due as you put it very well in last week's notes, to the drought in the Western states and Western Canada and the slaughter of the animals tgsgancouid not be provided with

We presume that the hight cost of fox feed will be a world wide condition and if so may be offset by increased price for the product, al- though not being a. necessity but a luxury it is a question whether the public can be prevailed on to pay more than present prices.

An interesting letter from the pen of WF. Burke, Charlottetown, appears in the June number of Canadian silver Fox. and Fur 1119-8821119. headed. "Con we Ad- vantlxeously Clip the Pox." m. Burke says: "We clip our horses, we pluck or clip the angers. rabbit, we shear our sheep, why disregard the Silver Fox? Clipping would favor the control of the flea pest and that of other external parasites.

There is a further possibility of manufacturing this clipped fur into wearable and even stylish garmets.

"Another thing I may say is that we balance our most ration as much asposslble, such ass) percent meat. that is muscia-nleat. and b0 per cent offal, hearts, trips and liver. A month after we changed over to fxcshmsst you could see a decided change in the foxes. Pups started to do much better. Other years on frozen meat the pups always looked

first of August. Still another factor is our foxes started to mate much earlier last winter than ever before

Another example. in was we were feeding our mink constantly on froaen meats. we started losing the young kittens during the summer. The loss was over 5D pm‘ cent. On changing to strictly fresh meat the casulties ceased within three days and we have had no trouble raising mink since we have fed nothing but fresh meat." _ .

J. H. Judson, Alexandra, well- known as a very successful lobster packer and all round rifle shot and sportsman, carries on a profitable fox ranch as a sideline. This season he has an unusually good lversge and in three litters there are MP"!!!- Although nearing the eighty mark. Mr. Judson is as.hs.le, hearty and spry as n1en thirty years his junior. '

The ‘discumon re the date of holding the annual silver Fox Show at the meeting of the silver Fox Exhibitions‘ Association this week took on a. very healthy tinge, healthy because it was participated 1n by quite g number of those pres- ent. Each side marshelied what looked to be convincing arguments for its cause. but when the vote was taken those favoring the earlier date-the first week in November- won out by a good margin.

After all the exhibitor would be handicapping himself very con- siderably by adopting s. December dale. Yes, perhaps even endanger in; his life because the Exhibition building is anything but a comfor- table place when winter sets in. ‘Then there are the roads tocon- sider, the effect of the cold weather on attendance. Against this is put forth the argument of a. deeper, denser quantity of fur on the ani- mals exhibited.

We wonder how many will take advantage of the new regulations of the Canadian National Silver Fox Broilers’ Association which pennit registered and unregistered foxes to be kept on the same property by the same owner? Unless the divid- ing line in the‘ ranch can be effected without very umuch additional expense the new clause will not be of great benefit. After all the whole matter hinges itself on onsts‘ honesty; the fact that the dividing guard fences are five feet or thiry feet apart makes very little difference io ‘one who would be of the "shifty" type!
