Johnny Palten had peeped into a
window and seen the kitten placed
in the desk. A the children had
been hurried out, be, filed with re.
morse, had climbed upon the win
dow-sill. intending to drop down in-
side and rescue the kitten. But he
did not realize how fast the fire was
advancing. A puff Of hot smoke
took his breath; he lost his balance
AMI fell inside just as Jerusha was
running out.
At sound Of his gaspiDg cry Jer-
usha turned. The flames were leap
ing towards him, the choking smoke
filling the air. Jerusha gave the
kitten fling which sent IL through
the window and landed it beyond
present danger, then grasped John
ny.
Cinders were flying ard smoke
thick, Mug. Choking and gasping,
Jerusha dragged him on. The roof
was burning, and just as the two had
nearly reached safety, one of its tim
bers fell, scattering c.nders on every
side. She threw herself over John
ny to protect him, and the embers
laid cruel hold upon her, just as help
came and strong, willing hands car
ried both beyond reach of harm.
The freckles went away from Jer-
usha's face in the long weeks in
which she lay in bed after that, and
it had been noticed that the last of
the scowl had gone before.

us and is glad when we do it.p
The pug nose is still in place, but
there are SO many pleasant things
about Jerusha's face that no one
thinks of it.
After she was well, she went TO
