Harley has just come with Take him in hand"
HARLEY found his work much difficult than he
IL expected He soon discovered the sharp competi-
ton among the agencies He industriousy called upon
the list of firms supplied to him each morning. with
result.
For fortnight the office paid serious attention to his
reports; then the staff soon set him down "false
alarm" and thereafter lost interest in his activities.
Eight hours of every day he pounded the pavements
but not one firm meanwhile influenced to embark
into campaign or to alter existing arrangements
At the end of four weeks his drawing account
cut off.
"You are in wrong" said Maxon in dismissal "You

And starve Harley did, Summer passed without
change of luck. The fall campaigns were placed; but
not contract fell his way. Once in awhile he managed
to borrow small bill from member of the staff, and
Maxon, half in pity of his incompetence and half in adj
miration of his tenacty surrepttousy helped him out
with occasional stake.
He was always clean and we'll shaved, and his crum-
his pnched and shabby aspect cheapened the organza
ton and in the end Creighton grudgingly notified him
that he must not make headquarters of the office.
At night, however, he would stink into the waiting
room nbued with the fororn hope that his last solicit
taton might inspire confidence in the management and
restore the drawing account.
March proved enemy and friend. An attack OF
grippe sent him to the hospital and temporarily solved
the problem of sustenance and housing.
For few days the staff noted his absence and specu-
lated upon it. But in the rush of business he
soon forgotten.
IN May, however, he bobbed up again. Some OF the
men, noting his paor and emaciation, generously
inquired where he had been but Harley did not choose
to explain it.
