Chilli Poor Country for Stock,

Stock raising in Chill does not seem
to be keeping pace with the general
development of the country, owing to
the fact that better use can be made
Of the land, since beef cattle can be
brought from Argentina cheaply. Then
the ravages of tuberculosis, carbun-
cles, fever, etc.. and the large number
OF deaths during droughts in unirri-
gated sections of the country tend to
make the business improbable.

Decorate ON Gala DAYS

Never before have SO many excur-
sions been booked for "Wildwood-by
the-Sea" and the reason for that state
of affairs can be traced to two main
facts. The Board of Trade and Others
are leaveing no stone unturned to Sc
cure desirable excursions and conven
tons for the resort and Wildwood is
becoming, and rapidly too, the most
popular place on The Jersey coast.
Thousands of people are learning OF
the advantages of Wildwood every
year through the advertising OF the
city and its hotels and through per-
sonal contact by a visit here. Every
visitor who returns to his or her home
town with a feeling that they have
been entertained and that Wildwood
is a delightful It sort will do more good
toward advancing Wildwood's interest
as a pleasure resort than a thousand
dollars well spent in other kinds OF
advertising.
That faetjn iLseli should makeeVexg
person with Wildwood &C heart willing
to do their share, no matter how small,
to create a greater city and advance its
interests and at the same time of a
necessity, their own If they are In
business of any kind.
Everyone car boost, and that helps
more than is sometimes thought posi-
BILE and almost all can decorate on
special excursion days. Decorations
are a great factor toward making visi-
tors realize that our city is q "live
one." IF you have a building, a porch
or q window, decorate it. Some will
see 1t and by seeing it will receive a
good impression. Appearances count
for a great deal and every person who
can leave the resort with pleasant
memories is a living advertisement
and advocate for "Wildwood-by-the-
Sea-"

CHAPTER XIV.
To the Rescue.


With magical swiftness the semi
darkness began to swarm with strug-
Cling shapes, which sprang from ev-
erywhere and nowhere.
Returning the blow of his assailant
with all his puny strength, Pedro man
aged to scramble into position with his
back against the house, where, from
within, he could still hear Hills voice
shouting directions which, however,
were unintelligible to his distracted at
tention. Somewhere near by, Beau
Jeans string of rough oaths roared
upon the turmoil, and Lovejoy began
yelping for the police. At this latter
cry there was a slight wavering among
their unknown assailants, but it was
quickly mended by new onrush.
The men who had been working at
the ship now left their tasks and
joined the fracas on general prin-
ciples, siding with neither party but
laying about them with vigor and a
splendid lack of discrimination. But it
was already quite fierce struggle, and
Pedro very soon began to find it diff.
cult to keep his feet The man with
whom he was confronted had an over.
whelming advantage in height and
weight, while Pedro was slight and
soft, and. truth to tell, rather badly
frightened. If only he could manage
to keep the fellow from knocking him
out till Beau-Jean and Lovejoy man
aged to win, or the police arrived. But
what if he should fail?
1t seemed as though they had ar
army against them, though as a mat
ter of fact, there were not more than
ten in all. Twice he with difficulty
suppressed the temptation to call upon
his friends for help, and with eobbine
indrawn breath fought on wildly, elu
sively, striving desperately to prevent
his opponent from graphing with him
A solitary policeman "a night rounds

feel more inclined to search. Where
shall we go?"
"I think there is lunch-wagon
down by the dock" said Beau-Jean.

"All right" Pedro assented, and they
set off at brisk pace, in the direction
Of the lights.
Sure enough. there was a lunch
wagon backed up against the ferry
house, and as they approached, 1t took
on an increasingly familiar air. Pc
dro's interest was now quickened by
