"I'll take you over," offered Tommy' The two gh-la laughed together aa they drove away, but at tbe next cof her Tommy excused herself for a mo ment and ran Into a drag store to tele phone. Tommy hurried out and re turned to her place In the cab with June, but Mrs. Vlllard, to whom she bad phoned, remained at the telephone and called up another number, .v -..v When June walked Into the Acme Employment bureau, having chosen a new one, quite naturally, since the old one bad aent her to a gambling bouae, ho found a new address ready for her. A lady wanted a companion. Her eye widened with pleasure aa she saw the beauty of Mrs. Vlllard'a home. It wns acarcely visible from the street, aet back of .and below a tangled profusion of shrubbery and trees. Be fore it rolled the brojjd. smooth Hud son. Her timidity , whs set entirely at rest when In the coiy parlor Just back of tbe stiff drawing room she met tbe kindly faced Mra. Vlllurd. .'. Companion) She was not to be a companion1 to this charming and sweet and yet sometime and lady. She was to be a friend, n sister, a daughter. Tbey knew tbat much In t be first three minutes of their conversation, and then Mrs. Vlllard took June up to n wonder ful bedroom which bad once been a ill P T 5 10 ' wer? peacocks and roosters and gnomes and elves. It whs visiting day among the Vlllard cottages and the cottages be yond which were not Vlllard cottages, and June hud the joy once more of giv ing, mingled with tbe sorrow that there was need. U was lute when they arrived at the cottage of the Groggs. nnd as tbey en tered the front door Mr. Grogg came up from the lower road and entered the buck door, fully ten feet behind bis breath.- Ho was a red fuced man with lio blend In his countenance whatso,, ever. ' Nose, ears and all, he was .the same tint of red from where bis neck rose .out of Its sprawling collar to where his low forehead disappeared In his Bprawling yellow hair. "D'afternoon, ladles," observed Mr. Grogg cheerfully and bowedbls smile in the direction of the severe eyed Mrs.. Vlllard aud the shocked June. "Brought you a llttlo present, Lour " and, with as much extravagant Importance as If this had been the rajah's jewel, be be stowed on Mrs. Grogg tbe potted token of his thougutfuliioxg, a geranium in n papier maclie pot. . Mrs. Grogg was a tblu woman, chiefly distinguished for drooplness and hoi- lowness as viewed from almost any di rection. 1 : "Al" the woman's voice concealed a tremor "can we pay Mrs. Vlllard any thing on the rent today?" - "Ain't you got any money?" -. : "Why, Al, you didn't give me any money." The man searched uustcadlly through all his pockets.'; He finally discovered a half dollar and a dime. -. "Never nilud," broke In the soft voice of Mrs. Vlllard as she saw tears In the eyes of Mrs. Grogg. Mrs. Vlllard, who had come to know life In many sordid phases, took June away. "Have you an evening gown, June, dear?" asked Mrs. Vlllard in a matter of fact sort of way und eying June solicitously as she made this abrupt change In their subject of thought "Yes."drawled June. "I'll get ttv to morrow." - "We are to have guests this evening." And Mrs. Vlllard studied June's height and figure with a calculating eye. "I have ft new little dinner dress which I am sure you can wear charmingly. You re to be my family, my dear," she rat tled on to cover June's embarrassed half protests. "I want you everywhere with me. We shall have to do some shopping, you .and I, one of these days. You like pretty things, don't you?" . "Why, of course," laughed June, and WANTED!

My, What a pleasure It will h tA . i dolly out of you, child! must nm light up nnd dress." j - The new little lace dluner ftock did become June charmingly, bat she was very thoughtful ns she sat among tbe gay peacocks and elves and gnomes, very thoughtful and very wad, upon the tiny bench In front of the Windows overlooking the broad river. Her brain was seething with new Ideas, know! edge which bud been thrust upon her, sympathies which tugged and pulled at her. Flint Mrs. Grogg. Juue had fenred for that forlorn wotnau. feared for her at this moment, alone down there with that animal, who bad fallen so far from the Image of God. Yet what waa there to fear? Mrs. Grogg had en dured and was enduring now and would eudure again, and when her lord and master luippeued to be sober and' happened to, have any money he might give his wife a little of It, might take compassion on her dire poverty and her need. The geraniums proved that he bnd a trace pf the quality con oealed In him. It was tho sume old problem, June's own problem, only In Its most sordid form. Dear Ned! There was no comparison, yet It was always tbe man who owned, the man wbo gave. The woman could onfjr receive. She could not giro becauso the man possessing her already owned all that she had to offer, even her love. .? On the corner of Vender street and Duck alley was Ned, Interviewing a skinny legged girl who sniffled continu ously, both while she whs pulling up her stockings mid' while she waa not In her check was a wad of iruui, nnd In ' W eye was all the lively expression found in the eye of u dead tisb. Ned Warner dredged for Information for two sordid mlnutcftfcatid went away, and Officer Tlcrinau walked straight over to tbe stocking puller, :v. "What did that guy want?" he de manded "He was astin' about a girl." ' "This party described the girl, didn't he?" j ''Uh-hiinh sawed oB ' blond. Say. what is It to you?"- And she sniffled away. Officer Tlermun walked hack to hla post with a troubled brow, and he shook his long, narrow head hh he looked after the Industrious NcJ War ner. - (Continued Tomorrow) . . ii iitiuniit iiiiiii,ihiiii,ihii DRINK HOT TEA FOR A BAD COLD 9.......,w,.t.4".M..i,.a.-4.4i4H4 Get a small package o!
