$50 BILL FLUTTERS OUT 18TH
FLOOR WINDOW: CAUGHT IN AIR
Captured by Hotel Porter Before 1t
Touches the Ground

A $50 bill was swept out of tSth floor
window of the Bellevue -Stratford by a
playful breeze This vas while the New
Years revels were, as some people say,
at their height, and those who say that
usually pronounce ''height" with the final
n There was In that bill the capac-
ity for giving New Year revelry at the
height Of 13 stories. and if that was
what the money was ror the cwner was
not going TO lose the chance to spend II.
As the $50 bill fiuttered and spun
and whirled in splrals toward Broad
street he rushed to the phone.
"St-st-st-stop that yo0 BILL" he slut
tered to the clerk at his desk l3 stories
nearer the centre of the earth.
II am prepared replied the clerk,
calmly, ito stop anything except a bill.
If the bill is for you, l trust that you
will pay 1t without a murmur.
BY this time the 500 had reached the
third floor and was twirlnE nearer and
nearer to its logical doom I'm waste
paper can. The stutterer fumed over
the wire.
'Th-th-that's what I want to pay my
b-b-bill withtha. $50 note that is d-d-drop-
ping d-d-down from the window"
Then the clerk sent potter out into
Broad street and the porter deftly
caught the $50 bill and returned with 1t
nonchalantly to the desk. 1t was sent
up to the 18th floor.

RAINBOW CLUB
The Story of a Raindrop
DOWN!
DOWN!


DOWN!
DOWN!
DOWN!
The afternoon was dark and little
Willie Raindrop found himself slowly
slipping, slipping from the great big
black cloud which hung in the heavens
Suddenly he felt himself whirling
through the air, but as he went toward
the earth he became rounder and
rounder until he felt like little ball
Looking down underneath he saw a
tree.
100! Oo!" he said to himself, 81
hope l don't hit that awful-looking
thing"
But before he knew it, he had land
ed gently on something which looked
to him very much like the blue sky.
Then he said out loud:
perhaps l fell up and landed on a
piece of the sky"
"Oh, no, you didn't" said a sweet
voice near him. "You landed on a
violet"
Excuse me-" said little Willie Rain
drop, "you were so blue that I
thought you were the sky"
mo, indeed" said the sweet little
voice, "but I stole my color from the
sky"
They were quiet for a long time,
then Willie Raindrop said: II wonder
what happens next!"
"You must be patient" said the
violet with a sweet voice. "By and by
you will sink into the deep moist
earth and then come out into the bab-
bling brook, flow on into the ripping
river and then to Mother Ocean where
you may stay for year and a day
and then come back to your home in
the sky"
"How wonderful" exclaimed little
Willie Raindrop.
By this time it was night and the
clouds overhead began to pour down
other raindrops once more and soon
another little raindrop Joined Willie,
and sure enough he sank into the deep,
soft earth and began his long, beauti-
full journey.
We shall hear more of little Willie
Raindrop as he nestles there in dear
Mother Earth.

down upon a great sweeping plain with
frozen lake glistening in the moonlight
ana a white river leading from 1t off into
timber that was neither so thick nor so
black as that in the swamp.
And then every muscle In his body grew
tense and his blood leaped From far off
IN the plain there came a cry. It was his
cry-the wolf-cry. His jaws snapped His
white fangs cleaned and he growled deep
in his throat. He wanted to reply. but
some strange instinct urged him not to.
That instinct Of the wild was already be-
coming master of him. In the air, in the
whispering of the spruce tops, in the
moon and the stars themselves, there
breathed a spirit which told him that
what he had heard was the wolf-cry, but
that 1t was not the wolf call.

CHATTER 1I1.-Cor tInned.

TN HALF n dozen bounds Kazan made
i the tent and rushed under the flap.
with n snarl he was at McCready's
throat The first snap of his powerful
Jaws was death, but he did not know
that He knew only that his mistress
was there, and that he was lighting for
her. There came one choking gasping
cry that ended with terrible sob; It
was McCready. The man sank from
his knees upon his back, and Kazan
thrust his fangs deeper into his enemy's
throat: he felt the warm blood.
The dogs mistress was calling to him
now. She was pulling at his shaggy
neck. But he would not loose his hold
~--not for long time.
When he did his mistress looked down
once upon the man and covered her face
with her hands. Then she sank down
upon the blankets She was very still.
Her face and hands were cold, and
Kazan muzzled them tenderly. Her eyes
were closed. He snuggled up close
against her, with his ready jaws turned
toward the dead man. Why was she so
still. he wondered?
A long time passed, and then she
moved. Her eyes opened. Her hand
touched him.
Then he heard n step outside.
1t was his master, and with that old
thrill of fear-fear of the club-he went
swiftly to the door. Yes, there was his
master In the fireligh,-and in his hand
he held the club. He was coming slow
ly, almost falling at each step, and his
face was red with blood. But he had
the club! He would beat him again
beat him terribly for hurting McCready;
so Kazan slipped quietly under the tent
flap and stole off into the shadows. From
out the gloom of the thick spruce he
looked back, and n low whine of love and
grief rose and died softly in his throat.
They would beat him always now-after
that. Even she would beat him. They
would hunt him down and beat him when
they found him.
From out of the glow of the fire he
turned his wolfish head to the depths of
the forest. There were no clubs or
singing lashes out in that gloom. They
would never find him there.
For another moment he wavered. And
then, as silently as one of the wild crea-
lures whose blood was partly his, he stole
away into the blackness of the night.
