stead of the chain, work the singles
to be joined afterwards with single
crochet. Leave the other side of the

Madden started in terror, white and
choking. He thought it was the kid"
crying, and his heart nearly stopped
beating from fright and uncertainty
Then he steeled himself, and bracing
his crutch against the bed he stood
ereet and Sajd dedaanntly:.
We'll, if it's reform school they'll
have to send the kid, for he amt got
nobody to look out for him but me!
Say, how would you feel to know
that your kid was hungry when you
was just stuffed with good things?
You couldn't eat much yourself, could
you? It 'u'd kinda choke you, wouldn't
it? Well, that's the way I feel every
time I take bite, for know the kid

seemed so cold and hard and relent

kid, and that the other kid wasn't
hers. Well, nothing mattered much
now unless they would let him go
with the kid.
There was sound of steps out in the
corridor. There was more than one
person, and the boy braced himself
again to meet the shock. Probably ii

but where was the kid all this time?

able to laugh at any situation, espe
cially if it only affected him, but this
was different, for now the kid was in
volved, his little kid who depended
upon him for any emergency, and
whom he had never failed.
A few seconds later the doctor
came in, pushing before him a small
badly frightened boy, who displayed
much resistance and who still held in
his hand a piece of bread and butter
The doctor felt around in his coat
pocket, and pulled out with difficulty
a similar piece.

balls which carry the blows are of steel, with ratchets, main levers and castings of malleable iron. The wheels are of steel and run on steel axles- The hubs have boxes of chilled iron, which are renewable and add greatly to their wear. The sulky is made with an ad- unstable pole which enables the op- orator to regulate the width of furrow. By means of this feature, good work is made possible in blowing hillside land, as it is easy to maintain the full width of the furrows. The beam, Landslide and wheel always run in line, greatly Tightening the labor of the team. The furrow wheel moves ahead of the blow in proportion to the depth of furrow turned, preventing the earth from being thrown into the wheel. With each sulky is furnished neck yoke and two-horse whiffletree, wrench and oil can. They can be seen at Mir Mallett's S store.

net receipts in order to create a sink
association. But the affairs of the as
sociation have been so financed tha.
it has been found necessary to in-
sert this clause in the contract this
season thus the contract reads that
all growers shipping through the as
sociation this year will be required
to pay only the regular cost of hand-
ling the goods.
The matter of getting the contracts
signed up by growers was placed in
the hands of the standing committee
of twenty-five that were elected by
the stockholders at the last annual
meeting. Mr. c. B. Reed of Malaga
is chairman of that committee. The
up town Office of the association will
be in the Griggs block on the second
floor, over the Wenatchee Depart
ment Store.
The outlook for the success of the
association this year is very bright.
Already numerous inquiries have been
received from the New York, Chicago
and many eastern points, as well as
from numerous dealers throughout
the middle west and the Pacific north
west. The fact that the association is
going to have a uniform grade and
pack meets with general approval
from wholesalers and commission
men, and the association is assured
by these people that fancy price can
be secured for the real first class ar
ticle
1t is the purpose of the association
to place upon every package of first
class fruit registered trade mark
guaranteeing the grade and pack.
1t is a fact that all high grade
grocery houses, restaurants and ho-
tells will pay fancy price for fruit
that is picked at its proper stage of
ripening, packed and handled as it
should be and put on the market in
fine condition The management of
the association fully expects that it
will create permanent market for
this kind of pack.
