Jerry S Find.
BY A. NJ. DAVIES OGDEN.
Copyright, 1907, by C. H. sutclire.

The morning, brilliantly clear, was
frosty and cold. Big Jerry Callahan,
blowing the tips of his fingers, red
from holding the reins of the patient
horse that pulled the half empty milk
wagon, and contemplating the thought
of arguments with angry cooks over
the short allowance of milk that the
weather imposed, felt his spirits sink
ing even lower than the mercury. And
adding to his depression was the recol-
lection of Kathleen-black eyed, pretty
Kathleen-who had chosen to attend
the annual ball of the Shamrock socie-
ty with fat Tim Donnelly. Brass but
tons have always attracted the femi-
nine eye, and Tim as he strutted along
in his snug fitting blue uniform, twist
ing his billy, was a fine figure Of q
man. Callahan admitted that, albeit
grudgingly Yet, despite his good looks
there was a something about the po-
liceman which Jerry vaguely distrust-
ed. And Norah had gone to the ball
with him.

Douglas Jerrold.

With his father managing two thea
tiers and his mother and two sisters
'treading the boards" it is scarcely
surprising to learn that Jerrold COM
menced life as an actor. But the MIN
BILE, cracking, original wit for which
Jerrold became so famous soon began
to assert itself. At fifteen years of age
he was contributing sonnets, epigrams
and songs to the magazines, while ere
he was twenty he had written numer-
Gus pieces for the stage. His dramas,
both comic and serious, were character
lied by brilliancy which took the
town by storm, while as prose writer
he proved himself of particularly
brilliant and original type.-Pall Mall

which an irate maid had accused him
of filling her bottles from the loose
milk can, a subdued whimper caught
his attention. On the curb, her white
fur edged coat sadly dirty, her chubby
face stained with tears, stood baby,
a tiny girl baby of about three years,
lost clearly and sobbing softly to her.
self.
Jerry scratched a puzzled ear. He
could hardly leave her there alone. She
was too small and helpless for that.
Besides, the mite was shivering with
fright and cold. Yet his duty was to
deliver his milk. And no amount Of
careful Inquiry could elicit more than
the fact that her name was Muriel and
that she lived on Fifth avenue.
After moments consideration he
swung her to the seat, wrapping her
well in an old blanket. The tot, reas-
sured and happy, cuddled more closely
under the friendly shelter and looked
up with trustful smile.
"Muriel's hungry" she announced.
When a second bottle of milk had
followed the first, affairs began to look
grave. Already short on his orders,
the loss of two more bottles might in
volve him in serious trouble. But to
fail those confiding blue eyes! Jerry
shook his head as he whipped up the
old white horse. The baby should not
suffer. And he found himself watch
ing the child with perplexed frown.
There was something oddly familiar
about the little face, the ripping gold
en- curls.
Sure it's only that all babies do
look alike, then" was his masculine
conclusion. They've all yellow hair
and blue eyes"
Callahan's expectations were fulfill
ed. The last customers were very an
CRY indeed when their full quota of
milk was not forthcoming, and dire
were the threats of complaint at head
quarters.
"Sure It's my job that may be after
losing" reflected Jerry, with rueful
smile at the placid young person be-
side him. "But 1t can't be helped now"

"Don't l know there's the devil to
