FINDING A FATHER
By HAROLD CARTER.

Bobby was lost. 1t is very hard to
be lost when you are only five years
old and have gone out into the world
to find a father.
He had wandered away from the
little apartment uptown, and. having
found the street, had run on and on,
past big. friendly policemen. and hos.
tile districts where bigger boys lay
in wait for five-year-olds. Then he
had come into a place of taxicabs and
street cars, and how he crossed that
he never knew. But finally he was In
a crowded street, and-and he hadn't
found a father yet.
He held the scrap of paper which
was to be a talisman in his hand. He
had taken that from mothers desk
when she was in the other room. He
knew that this would help him to find
a father such as he had always
wanted.
Suddenly Bobby's legs gave out. He
was tired and bewildered by the rush
of traffic and the busy pedestrians,
who did not seem to have time to look
where they were going. Several times
he had been swept into doorways,
and once he had been Knocked down,
and 1t required all his manliness not
to cry. II he had not been looking

We'll. sir, what can do for your

this company"
YES" answered Bobby, with equal
gravity. Il want a father"
The words stung Swanscott to the
quick. He glared at the little boy.
and the directors. each of whom knew
the tragic story of Swanscott's life
though he did not know they knew.
tried to suppress their interest.
so you have come to me to find a
father for you, have your" inquired
the president. What is that you have
in your hand, young man."
Bobby stretched out his hand and
offered him the paper, with the assur-
ance Of five years old. Swanscott took
1t and gave an involuntary start
1t was Hilda's handwriting that he
sew before his eyes. 1t was impossi-
BILE to mistake that. How many times
had he not seen 1t upon those letters
at home, every one of which he had
read so often that he knew 1t by
heart!
Mother is always crying because
l haven't a father" explained Bobby.
She cries all night. and sometimes
she writes things on a piece of pa
per and then tears 1t up and frows 1t
away. So thought thought
would get q father"
John Swanscott looked round him,
and suddenly a warm sense Of human
ity filled his shrunken heart. And the
directors. seeing the look upon his
face. drew together into a corner.
What is your manner" asked
Swanscott of the boy. Bobby" That
was his name-his second name, and
1t had been arranged that II there
were boy he was to inherit. Swans
colt reached for his hat
We'll. Bobby, I guess you have
found one," he answered. Gentle
men" he added. turning to the direc-
tors, there will be no company meet
ing today"

RT was On May 8. 1867. that I start
ed from st. Gall on Q two months
tramp through Switzerland. with
a light heart, . light purse and
light baggage. the latter consist
ing Of small knapsack. while in my
pocket carried a sketch-book. This =
much too early in the year to reach
the higher parts Of the country, which
are then covered with deep snow. In
deed. some Of the highest resorts are
accessible for only two months in the
yearDJuly and August, writes Harry
e. Brook in the Los Angeles Times.
Tramping Is not only the most indie
pendent. but is the best way to see q
rough country like Switzerland, where
one often. has to take trails and bride
paths that are only accessible to men
and mountain goats: that IL to say, II
one wishes to get among the people
and see how they live. Travellers who
move from one big hotel to another
come back with very little Impression
OF q country beyond the menus and
hotel bills. The Germans tell q story
about an Englishman travelling up the
Rhine who sent his son on deck while
he sat below III the cabin with Q
bottle Of Rhine wine and Murray's
guide-book. and checked on the places
of interest AZ his son called out the
names. That is one way to see" .
country. but 1t IL not the best

On my trip l averaged about thirty
miles a day. Sometimes I would take

short distance, but nine-tenths of the
trip was made on foot. It was Q cheap
