launch a move of the same sort. put
which he did not take fully into ac-

his chief credit man and to give him
orders. Thereafter. during the forenoon,
the credit men of certain other instltu-
ions came in and conferred with Mr.,
Buckingham. bringing little transcripts
Of bills receivable with them.

Mr.. Buckingham's credit men. and

of the dates were very much nearer the

All in an hour the last ves;iges of that
bitter brooding and gloom which for a
year had threatened to engulf her soul

Is essentially good. Here were two
daughters Of the rich-and one of the
~princely rich-both of whom had proved
themselves her disinterested friends.
Ruth Buckingham had shared a
woman's most precious secret with her
and had fattered her immensely by tell
ing her that she was the inspiration of
Mr.. jeremiah T. Archer in that great
work of reform in Philadelphia upon
which he was pictured as being so ar

of all. was The astounding assurance that

asked General Swallow.
Yes. I'll be your trainer and tell

Enthusiastically. /.
'Then Wen all be in your show"
chorused the birds.
Ben and Bill had been watching
Peggy and the birds with keen in

Peggy was able to talk to the birds,
and It was amusing to see the way
they answered.

Peggy thought rapidly. She would

the costumes and she had toys that

wagon, where it seemed almost lost.
They invited the Birds to ride, but all
declined except Judge Owl and Blue

fun.
Soon they were ready to start. But
there was Balky Sam, still sitting In
the middle of the street as comfortable
as you please. and not showing a sign
OF moving. y

claimed Bill.

teered Peggy. She jumped of the

there was a particularly nice patch Of

with great relish. Balky Sam opened
his mouth for the otner handful which
Peggy frisked in front of his nose.
But Peggy teasingly snatched it away.
She laughed at his eagerness and gave
him a wink. Balky Sam slyly winked
back n quickly jumped to his feet.
Just as quickly Peggy rewarded him
by showing the grass into his hungry
mouth. Then she climbed into the
wagon, Bill said "Geddap." and away
they went for camp, Balky Sam
munching contentedly as he trotted
along.
