BLACKMAIL MUST ALWAYS HAUNT THE GIRL
WHO TRIES TO LEAD A NEW LIFE
BY Evelyn Nesbitt.
Chapter vi.

Helen was a waitress. She never
went out much, but accepted an in
vitation one evening from a young
man who regularly patronized the
restaurant She was an easy victim.
A millionaire took fancy to her
and she was transferred from a
downtown station" in Los Angeles
to a residence on Adams street, one
of the best residence streets. The
millionaire paid the bills and kept her
there. He called occasionally with
his friends. Finally she rebeled.
The slaVers had disposed of her
to him for $500 and given her but a
very small percentage of it.
Helen made a scene, too, The rich
man beat a hasty retreat. Next day
two private detectives arrested Helen
for vagrancy. She tried to talk, but
was told that if she did more serious
charges would be lodged. The police
Judge told her to get out of town.
Thus the slavers work steadily,
putting the power of the law to their
own vicious uses and using as tool
the force that ought to destroy them.
The agents of the sIaVers are Un-
Willingly employed by reputable peo-
pie as walters, chauffeurs, clerks and
in other positions. They're always

Thus they gain entrance to good

This white slave thing is old, too,

about a woman that broke away
from them and lived down her past,
married and had a daughter.
She lived in constant fear of black
mail, because the sIavers never for

that. Profit lies behind all their
operations.

What Pang gaiay Does All Pains and Aches

TT saw man beating a carpet, the other day. Next day he had such lame pack he could hardly walk. I gave him , metal tube of PANGALAY and his vife gave him a good rubbing with it. nside of an hour his aches had disap- cared"
 @One of our office boys attempted to fit a heavy box recently and spraired is arms so he was laid up. He got a ube of PANGALAY, rubbed his arms thoroughly and in just seventeen minutes ais soreness had left"
 "An old lady who is subject to Neu- ralgia-has it so badly she becomes dizzy, can't step without feeling like her head would burst open, got up the other morn ing with a dreadful attack. Her daugh- ter got the tube of PANGALAY, rubbed her with it thoroughly and within an hour she was entirely relieved.'
 These are facts. If you have any kind of pain get a tube of PANGALAY for 25c at druggists and experience instant relief. No home should ever be without it. Made by Curts Chemical Company, 117 East 24th Street. New York City.

rows of tomatoes in their canning club plot One girl took the place of the horse in the harrow while the other occupied the place of the driver.''
 Here is a report from Mississippi agent:
 -tOne girl ith the help of her father and brother has put up more than 5000 cans. She has 200 cans of figs. She has already sold some to local merchants and her father said: The boil weeviI may eat up my cotton but they can't get inside these cans and jars, some are sure to have plenty to eat and some ready money to spend -
 Here are some reports from agents in Georgia:
 There is much interest in canning vegetables An old coIored woman requested information of me so her chile whut tuck after her ole granny put beans and things like dat you had had at the fair last year She was given canning instructions and a mum Der of bulltins on the subject.D
 A little girl of Upatore deserves special mention. Her parents are She went to school, stood at the head of her class, did all the ork of her patch except blowing working corn ing and evening; borrowed money for canner and cans, and has put up 500 cans of tomatoes and 200 cans of blackberries besides a variety of sauces. pickles. jellies and preserves for home and market purposes"
 sThree-fourths of the mem bers of the Girls Tomato Clubs visited this week are regular hands on their fathers farms" writes an agent of South Carolina. s.One girls is 12 years old and weighs 108 pounds. She told me she learned to blow two years ago, when her father was a cripple. She prepared her 1-10 acre with a. two-horse blow. hauled her fertilizer, scattered, bedded, transplanted, hoed and p1owed it without any help at all. When went to her tomato gar den, about half mile from her home, I found it to be in 8 very productive state.
 This is from an agent in Virginia:
 A peculiar condition was found in the village of Matoaca. The Holy Jumpers had invaded the place and two little girl club members had been convinced that it is eor1dIy nninded' to raise tomatoes and have dropped out of the club work"

''PEG O MY HEART'' DELIGHTS AUDIENCE AT PARK THEATRE
Blanche Hall Gives Charming Impersonation of J. Hartley Manners Heroine.

Peg O. My Heart,' J. Hartley Man ners' wonderfully successful comedy, was seen for the first time in Bridge port, last evening by A large and de- lighted audience at the aPrk theatre The enthusiastic welcome given Peg in her Bridgeport premiere, augurs well for the success of the three day engagement here. A well balanced company with a star of unusual merit unfoids the pretty romance.
 The story of Peg is fairly well known to the theatre goers. A mother less Irish child, in New York city, she becomes an heiress through the dsath of an uncle, whose will provides for her being t.hnished'- in English home. The prospect of 1000 pounds a, year for the task induces an aunt of Peg whose fortunes are shattered, to essay the task of making lady of the impulsive, big hearted, ro1licking Irish girl. Most of the play is made up of scenes sparkling with bright dialogue, and situations teeming with fun for Peg and her admirers.
 The characterization of Peg by Miss Blanche Hall is indeed a work of art Miss Hall makes or Peg an e1- fin creature whose personality is. an embodiment of the traditional colleen. For the lighter moments of the play she has an irresistible smile that SnnacAS of rogueryss and Tor the more serious. episodes she mas sincerity that for the moment makes the play a seeming. reality. The work of a real artist is always pleasure. With Miss Hall is true artistry and many per- sona1 charmSEa combination that makes Of Peg a Peg O My Heart who is sure to be cherished by the playgoers fortunate enough to see her
 Miss Hall has the benefit of a well balanced company, and scenic environ ment in keeping with the general ex- ce1lence of the performance Lionel Glen as Jerry contributed materially to the superiority of the performance g. Vivian Gilbert carries out the charac- ter comedy role of "A1arac.'' Alma Chester as Mrs. Chischester drew well the lines of matron1y role. Ruth GartIand gave convincing portrayal of Miss Chischester.a Robert Forsythe made capital Montgomery Hawkes.. ''
