ORPHAN ASYLUM
 DOES FINE WORK
Bridgeport Hebrew Orphan Asylum to Start Cam paign for Fund for New Home.

The members who constitute the Bridgeport Hebrew Orphan Asylum are to be congratulated upon the splendid work done since It's organi- zation in August of 1915. Its en- deavors to care for orphans of the Hebrew population has brought sun shine into the life of many a father less and motherIess child who has been kept with private families at the expense of the organization until able to go to work.
 As the work progressed, the need was found to be even greater than at first realized until now it has req ched the absolute necessity of a home where the large number of orphans may be properly cared for. 4 cam paign will be launched in this city which will start on March g, when S10, ,000 are hoped to be raised to be used for the enlargement and fur nishing up of a proper home for-the children.
 Through donations received from members and by a series of whists drawings and dances enough money was accumulated with which a home was bought on Lafayette street about six months ago. Although the build
 
 ntshings, and other equipments and the citizens of the city are urged to cooperate with the members so that the organization may realize it's aim.
 Bridgeport is the only city In the state that has a Hebrew Orphan Asy- Ium and the members of the organi- zatiOn not only take care of the or phans but also look after cases among the poor. During the recent epidemic ton of the officers where the need of assistance such as the organization could give was very valuable.
 The future Hebrew Orphan Asylum that the present organization is planning will serve for the county of Fairfield.
 The officers of the organization are Mrs. s. A. Sandhaus, president; Mrs 1T. P. kreutzman, vice president: Mrs Samuel N. Schnee. financial secretary; Mrs, M. NudIeman, recording secre- tary; Mrs. o. Resisky, treasurer, and Mrs. A. Shelinsky. Mrs. Sufern and Mrs. Bakunin, trustees.

Stupid to press this companionship, :his awkward silence on her. If he thought she was going to entertain nim, as Gerty did. with her swift chat ter, he'd be surprised! Any other two people would fall into easy give-and- take, but what could she, Innes liar din, find to chatter about with this man stalking along. grimly grasping her arm? Close as they were, his touch reminding her every minute, between them walked her brother and her brothers w!fe-and there was the Mexican-hateful memory! Of course she could not be casual.> And she would not force it. He had brought this about. Let him talk, then!
 Oppressive that silence. Then it came to her that she would ask him the question that his coming had abort ed. A glance at his face found him smiling. He found 1t amusing7 Not for worlds, then, would she speak And they stalked along. Unconsciously she had pulled herself away from him. lie took her hand and put it in the crotch of his arm. That's better" he said. She wondered if he were still smiling.
 Their path led by his tent. Neither of them noticed a subdued light through the canvas walls. AS they reached the place q figure darted from the door,
 "Oh, senor, I thought you would never come" It was the wife of Mall donado. Her expression was lost on 1nnes. The face was Quiverlng with terror.
 "Mr. Rickard," Innes' words like iciCles, "I will leave you here It Is quite unnecessary to come farther" Quite unveiled her meaning!
 It came so quickly that he was not ready; nor indeed had Gerty's innuen- does yet reached him. But the situation was uncomfortable. He turned sharp ly to the Mexican.
 Come in.'' he took her roughly by the arm. She would wake up the camp with her crying. He put her in chair. ''Now tell your story" The woman had got to be a nuisance. He couldn't have her coming around like this. He had seen that look in the girls eyes ''Murdered2 Who did you say was murdered?'
 She lifted a face, frightened into haggardness. "HAidonado and the girl"
 The night waA stripped to ehe traz- edy. You found thsn?"
 Her face was lifted tmploriuKly to him. "Oh. senor, it was not I. By tho Mother of Christ. 1t was not l."
 Rickard was not sure. Her fear made him suspect her. "Who was 1t, you think?"
 'Felipe," she gasped. "He got away from the rurales-he came back. He went home-there was no one there. Some one told him where she had gone. He came to Maldonado's Lu- crezia, the eldest, opened the gate. He was terrible, she said. lie rushed past her. And when he came out his hands were red. The children heard cries. They were afraid to go ip. I got there last night. l went in. They were not quite coId-I was afraid to stay. It would look like me, senor. Will they take me, senor?" She was a wreck of terror.
 Not if what you tell me is true. Now, get to bed. I'll give you some thing that will make you sleep" He hustled her out and prepared the draught.
 He wondered as he got into bed as to the truth of her story. Disgusting, such animal terrori Awkward hole, that. Fate seemed possessed to queer him with those Hardins!

Kitchen Curtains.

The very prettiest wny Of curtaining
the kitchen window Ia by using the
double-sash curtains. Dutch curtains,
they are called. Make the two pairs
OF crisp muslin. or soft voile or cheese
cloth, as preferred. and sew down the
sides and across the bottom band of
plain color to match the kitchen color
scheme. These bands may be fren
two to four inches wide. The bottom
curtains are usually kept closed. but
the upper ones are always open to
allow sunlight and air to come In and
the hit of color at the edges seems to
be just what so many kitchens need to
brighten them up.
