Thus their material wants were pro-
vided for.
As time passed Hazel gradually
shook off a measure of her depression,
thrust her uneasiness and resentment
into the background. AS a matter of
fact, she resigned herself to getting
through the winter, since that was In
evitable. She fell into the way Of do

On one Of these days Hazel came into
the kitchen and found Bill piling tow
els, napkins, and a great quantity of
other soiled articles on an outspread
tableclOth.
"well," she inquired. "what are you
going to do with thosef"
'Take 'em to the laundry" he
laughed. Collect your dirty buds, and
bring them forth"
Laundry !" Hazel echoed. 1t seemed
rather a far-fetched joke.
"Surei You don't suppose we can
get along forever without having
things washed, do youf" he replied. II

SO she brought out her accumulation

WATER FOR FOWLS
Sufficient Supply, Frequently Renewed,
Is as Necessary as Proper
Amount of Food.

Prepared by the United States DEPART
ment Of A~griculture.)
If your flock Of poultry has not been
doing as well as you think it ought to,
perhaps 1t is because you have not
been providing the chickens with a
supply of fresh, pure drinking water.
Of course, lack of thrift and low egg
yields may be due to a number Of other
certain causes, such as poor stock, poor
feed (both quality and quantity, bad
housing conditions, diseases, presence
Of lice and mites, and lack Of care.
But for some reason many poultry
raisers who give attention to these
items sometimes neglect the water
supply. A supply Of pure drinking wa
ter frequently renewed is as necessary
for poultry as sufficient amounts Of
food.
There are two different types OF
drinking vessels for poultry In COM
mon use: Open vessels-pails, pans,
crooks and the IKE; and drinking foun-
talns so constructed that dust and dirt
cannot get into the water except by
way OF a very small exposed surface.
These quite opposite types Of drink
Ing vessels are about equally popular
with poultry keepers. Open vessels
catch more dirt and dust, but are more
easily cleaned. Closed fountains may
be used much longer without cleaning.
but If allowed to become foul are hard
er to clean thoroughly.
Placing open drinking vessels on a
shelf a foot or more above the floor
prevents the hens from scratching
coarse litter into them, but does not
keep out the dust which floats IN the
air and settles In the water.
Thoroughly rinsing open vessels once
a day and scalding drinking fountains
once or twice a week will usually keep
them as clean as necessary.

CHAPTER VII.
The prone Of the Hive.

A black cloud Of smoke was rolling
up from the funnel Of the Stanley d.
as Bill Wagstaff piloted Hazel from the
grimy Bella Coda hotel to the wharf.
"There amt many passengers" he
told her. They're mostly cannery
men. But you'll have the captains
wife to chaperon you. She happens
to be making the trip"
When they were aboard and the
cabin boy had shown them 80 what
was dignifed by the name OF state
room, Bill drew a long envelope from
his pocket.
"Here," he said, '1s a little money.
I hope you won't let any foolish pride
stand in the way of using It freely. It
came easy to me. l dug 1t out Of Mother
Earth, and there's plenty nor where

tultous advice-in case you should con

probably looked high and low for you.
But there Is no chance for them to
learn where you actually did get to
unless you yourself tell them. The
most plausible explanation-and II you
go there you must make some explana-
tlon-would be for you to say that you
got lost-which is true enough-and
that you eventually fell in with a
party Of Indians, and later on con-
nected up with a party OF white
people who were travelling eastward.
That you wintered with them, and they
put you on a steamer and sent you to
Vancouver when spring opened.
"That, / guess, is ALL" he concluded
slowly. "0nly / visible caught her

smith. It's a nice, quiet hotel in the
West end. Any hack driver knows the
place."
He dropped his hands, and looked
steadily at her for q few seconds,
steadily and l~ongingly.
"Good-byT" he said abruptly-and
walked out, and down the gangplank
that was already being cast loose. and
away up the wharf without a back
ward glance.
The Stanley DIS siren woke the
echoes along the wooded shore. A
.throbbing that shook her from stem
to stern betokened the first turnings
OF the screw. And slowly she backed
into deep water and swung wide for
the outer passage.

The Fires Of Spring.

There came a day when the metallic
brilliancy went out Of the sky. and II
became softly, mistly blue. All that
forenoon Hazel prowled restlessly out
Of doors without cap or coat. There
was a new feel In the air. The deep
winter snow had suddenly lost its
harshness.
Toward evening a mild breeze fresh
ened from the southwest. At ten o'clock
a gale whooped riotousIy through the
trees. And at midnight Hazel Weakened
TO a sound that she had not heard In
months. She rose and CROPPED her way

he called Hazel to one side, up on a lit
tie rocky knoll, and pointed out a half
dozen pin points of yellow glimmering
distantly in the dark.
"That's Bella Coola," he told her.
"And unless they've made a radical
change In their sailing schedules there
should be a boat clear tomorrow at
noon"

Union Meeting at Bold Spring.

Union Meeting at Bold Spring.
The Sunday meeting at Bold
Spring was largely attended, repre-
sentatives from several Of the church.
es being present, Mr.. Bonham Ham
ilton presiding as moderator.
The missionary sermon was preach
ed by Rev. C. G. Wells, and was full
of comfort to the workers for the
great cause Of missions.
Rev. Graves L. Knight whom the
Education Board assigned to Edge
field county to raise the funds for
that purpose, was present and made
a splendid address on Christian Edu-
cation. We found later that Mr..
Knight had been secured as profess
sor of Mathematics at the B. M. l.,
so that Edgefield has given up a
great many good things to Col. Bal
ley and Greenwood.
Rev. Mr.. Hampton Of Laurens
made an address on Christian Edu-
cation following Mr.. Knight and the
meeting adjourned for dinner.
A very sensible and at the same
time bountiful dinner was served at
the several different tables.
The afternoon session began with
devotions by Rev. G. L. knight, after
which the pastor asked the auxiliary
societies to take charge. The children
had been previously brought to the
front, and Mrs. Mamie N. Tillman
talked to them as well as to the con-
gregation on the Importance of Mis-
sionary training for the children of
our churches, impressing the serious
ness of the problem upon the fathers
and mothers. At the close of her talk
the children of Bold Spring Sunbeam
society sang precious Jewels"
Mrs. j. L. Minis then presented to
the congregation the plans of work
for the Woman's Mission societies
for the coming year.
"The Church and It's Relation to
the War;" was presented by Mr.. j..
l.. Minis and the meeting adjourned
to reassemble in December with the
Mountain Creek church.
The roads from Edgefeld to Bold
Spring are in splendid condition and
the visitors to this interesting church
were greatly edited not only by the
inspiring programme Of the morning
but by. the association with many
kind friends.

To All Retail Dealers in Sugar.

Effective at once You are author
lied to sell to individual consumers
a two weeks supply of sugar al
one time. allowing two pounds per
person per month.
The rule limiting the sale of So
gar to two pounds at one time to
people in towns and five pounds to
those in the country is repealed.
To illustrate: If there are six
persons in a family you may sell
six pounds at one time to that fam
lily. But during the month they
must not buy more than two pounds
per person per month, or twelve
pounds during the month.
You must keep a record IN wri-
ting of the sugar you sell to indi-
vidual consumers. This record
must show the name of the pur,
chaser of the sugar, his Post Of.
flee address, the amount of sugar
purchased, and the date on which
the purchase is made.
Yours very truly,

Food Administrator for South
Carolina.
