who knows something good about ev-

lends a helping hand to the fellow
who is up against it, and gives him a
chance to make good. He never for
gets to do and say the little things
that makes his wife happy. His chill

Freddie the Ferret" was a remark
able young man. His real name was
Frederick Appleton Douglas-and he
came OF good Scotch-American stock.
II he had beer bright and bad he might
have been a gangster. But he wasn't
bright and he wasn't bad. He was
neither a half-wit. nor a whole wit.
and he had almost as much moral
sense as a cat. That Is TO say, he had
none.
His habitual companions. however.
were evil. For many such persons in
the city had discovered that on occa-
sion Freddie could be tremendously
useful. To begin with. his luck dis
tinguished him as much as brains and
talent could have done. Some people
are always finding four-leaved clovers.
Freddie's gift. though he had never
seen a clover patch or lived in clover.
was of that sort. If Freddie vent
through a rubbish heap he always
found something OF value.
The police knew him well. And al
though he was often mixed up in rep
rehensible matters. they were careful
not to arrest him. because he was often
SO useful to them. and they knew that
at heart he was ~good-natured and not
responsible for the occasional harm
that he did.
Freddie's repute with the police be-
gan when he was quite a small boy.
Sergeant Rafferty,. tall and very seri-
GUS looking. encountered him one day
and said:
Say. Bub. have you seen a man
round here with one nostril bigger
than the other and a bit OF his left ear
missing"
Sure" said Freddie; you mean
Pete the Polaxe."
"Where?" said Rafferty,. Hes shot
a man up and he's wanted"
Il seen him." said Freddie. not five
minutes ago. He give me a dime to
say didn't"
"Where'd you see him. boy?"
HE was goin' into O'Gorman's ice
cream parlor with Nell the Finger.
family entrance"
IF you've spoken the truth" said
Rafferty,. "Ill give you a dollar"
Ten minutes later the arrest was
made and Freddie's reputation was es-
tablished.
F1annerman's barroom was Fred
dies headquarters. Sometimes the
habitues amused themselves by get
ting him drunk. but not often. for they
were poor men. and even a mild jag
costs money. One day the proprietor
tapped Freddie on the shoulder and
told him he was wanted on the phone.
Yes. this is Freddie. all right"
This is Mrs. Baxter"
Hope you're well. Mrs. Baxter"
Same to YOU. Freddie. bin trying
to find Sweetzer all over town. Can
you find him."
Sure; what1l ! tell him."

CHAPTER XIV.

What had happened was simply
this: The momen Tommy had entered
his fathers house Celestia had leaned
from the cab window u told the
driver 10 drive on. Why? Because
she thought she was a trouble TO him?
No. II was because when his arms
had been around her and he had
kissed her n she had kissed him
back, almost all thought OF her heav-
enly mission TO this earth had been
wiped from her mind. and she felt
that the gates OF heaven were closed
against her return. They had trust
ed her. And she mustn't fail them.
The cab had stopped and the driver
was speaking 10 her through the win
dow.
This will do" she said. and she got
out. Thank 0 very much and
then. her head bare. feet showing be-
low Tommy's %raincoat. she started to
walk away.
Hold on. there" beloved the
driver. how about my fare?"
oh" said Celestia. turning meekly.
IL uiiNtI poilteu " us lHctei-
Sixteen dollars and forty-eight
cents" he said. with a tone Of final
ity.
Celestia stood helpless and bewil-
dered.
But have no money" she said.
You haven't. haven't you?"
The driver leaped threateningly from
his box. and a crowd began to gather.
Through this crowd a strong. loud
voiced, well-dressed middle-aged WON
an came pushing and struggling. She
caught Celestia by the arm and forced
her back toward the cab. the door Of
which was still open.
"Ill take care OF you. dear" she
said. in with you"
To the driver she gave an address
In a voice which none but him heard.
and a moment later, amid jeers and
murmurs OF pity. Celestia was once
more whirling through the streets Of
New York.

Once more Mrs. Baxter hurried
downstairs. Once more she found
Sweetzer and Freddie In the front
parlor.
III send for her in an hour" said
Sweetzer; see that's she's ready"
You mean asleep"
mean more. Put her into some

There's one thing more"
Eye met eye. And after a little
Sweetzer's eyes fell and he drew from
his inside pocket an enormous roll

Ten bills of a hundred dollars each

thumb licking from him TO Mrs. Bax-
ter.

CHAPTER XVII.

Had Mrs. Baxter no conjunction
whatever? Yes. But she was only
doing as she had once been done by.
She had 10 live. or she felt that she
had to. and she had hardened her
heart to mercy and self sacrifice. Still,
her hands shook as she carried the
~orangeade and the sandwiches up TO
Celestial. and her voice shook as she
said:
There, dearie, eat. drink and be
merry"
Celestia ate hungrily and drank
thirstily. And presently she said that
she felt sleepy and could hardly keep
her eyes open.
1t amt anywhere lei bedtime"
said Mrs. Baxter. You just curl up
on my sofa and take forty winks."
Sleeping she looked more beautiful
than a maiden OF this earth.
My Godl My God.' exclaimed
Mrs. Baxter, amt she beautiful? And
10 think that she has to be food for
swine
A strong emotion seized Mrs. Bax-
ter. II was fear. pity and remorse
mo use crying over spilled milk"
she murmured. And now to change
her into a travelling dress"
She left the room hurriedly and
came back with all that was necessary

Suspended from Celestia's neck by
a narrow ribbon, was the smallest.

world.
do not know what silent chords In
the wicked old woman's heart were
touched by the sight Of that doll. !
only know that she gave a kind OF a
howl OF grief, and then she began 10
say in a kind or hurried %sing-song:
Must hurry-must hurry-must hur-
ry."
She found the strength to half car
~. half drag Celestial down the front
stairs and TO half lift, half tumble her
into q huge trunk that almost blocked
the front hall. Before she closed and
locked the trunk. she flung into IL the
htb OiAt dSiAaA bAiAo lAA
then she tried TO compose herself
against Sweetzer's arrival.
He was punctual 10 the minute. Mrs.
Baxter opened the front door herself.
Beyond Sweetzer. drawn up at the
curb, she could see the express z
and the trusted porters that he had
brought with him.
Everything all right?" he wills
pered.
Mrs. Baxter closed the door.
~"Sweetzer." she said. she's gone"
When | went back with the o~rangeade
she was gone She must have smelt
a rat, Sweetzer. She must have seen
your eyes In the peacock's tail. See.
| had everything ready; here's the
trunk waiting for her.
Sweetzer looked at the trunk. He
could think OF nothing better TO do.
