rne afternoon pVeMe IN an enllesS re
iteration of dip and write, till five
thirty. Then she joined the home-go-
ing panic and took the crowded SUBJ
way to Columbus circle
She plodded the treadmill, till at
the end of the sixth day, her forty
>';ghth hour of transcribing names and
addresses from the lists to the wrap
pers, she carried off a cash reward of
eight dollars. This was not clear gain.
Her street car fares had totaled sixty
certs, her lunches dollar and half !;
she had worn her costumes at the
sleeves and damaged them with few
ink spots, anu her shoes were takiT g
on a shabby nap.
It was not encouraging.
At Daphne's left elbow was a large.
fat girl whose pen rolled off large,
fat letters. She talked all the time
about nothing of Importance, laughed
and fidgeted and asked questions that
had come from anything but a large,
fat head.
Her uame was Maria Pribik. She
was Bohemian of the second genera
ton; but she was dyed in the wool
with New Yorkishness. She was an
incessant optimist and kept remind
ing everybody to "cheer up, COILS, the
woisst might be woisser yet"
Daphne's luck did not last long. The
receivers found that the percentage on
inquiries following upon the advertis-
ing and circularizing campaigns was
hardly paying the postage. People
were either too poor to buy books or
too busy with the molten history pour
ing from the caldrons of Europe. Yes
terday's paper was ancient history
enough.
The receivers closed down the
business abruptly on Saturday and
instructed the manager to announce

to his flock that there would be no
more work at present. Daphne's heart
stopped. Here she was again, learn
ing again the dreadful significance of
tout of a job"-what the theatrical
people called "at liberty"
Miss Pribik looked at Daphne and
noted her gloom. "Say, kid, listen

and he'll always gimme a job Or any

what's the diff? His money, buys just
rs much as anybody's. We better beat

Daphne murmured her hasty thanks
and they left at once. Miss Pribik led
the way to a huge building full Of
"Pants Makers ''Nightshirt Makers"
"Waist Makers" and publishers of cal
endars, favors and subscription books
She asked for Mr.. Gerst, saw him,
beckoned him over, and hailed him
with bravado:
swell, Mist GOist, here / am, back
to the mines. This is me friend Kip
I want you should give her a job-and
me, too"
Daphne faced Mr.. Gerst's inspection
without visible fiinching, though she
was uneasy within. Gerst was large,
f1ambOyant brute with eyes that
seemed less to receive. light than to
send forth vision. He had an in
quisitive and stripping gaze. But
n
sacking Daphne with his eyes, he
grunted: 'You look pretty good to
me, kiddo. You can begin Monday"
'"Thanks," said Daphne, humbly.
'I'm comm, too" said Miss Pribik.
GAIL right" said Gerst. cts time
you did. Well take some of that beef
off you" And he playfully pinched
her arm.
Adroitly evading his pincers, Miss
Pribik led the way out, and Daphne
trailed her outside.
Daphne loathed and feared the man
already. He stood like a glowering
menace in the path ahead OF her.

dawns that we have chronic stom-
ach trouble.
The case Of Mr.. Louis Young, 205
Merrimac ST., Rochester, N. z, is
typical. He writes: 'T suffered for

If you suffer from catarra in any
form, whether Of the head, stomach,

what you need. Peruna comes in
either liquid or tablet form and is

CHAPTER XVII.

Daphne had not told Mrs. Chivvis
Of her financial plight, nor of her IA
theirs, nor her brothers. She had
simply let the days OF payment go
past one by one. She saw a chillier
glitter in Mrs. Chivvis' eye and there
was constant restraint upon the con-
versation for many days.
Mr.. Chivvis was at home most of the
time now, sitting about in his ole
clothes to save the others. He and his
wife naturally talked of Daphne.
Sometimes she overheard their under
tones. Each seemed to urge the other
to the attack. Finally, one evening
Mrs. Chivvis made so bold as to call
on Daphne in her room, and to say,
after much imprOvising:
81 dislike to speak of it, Miss Kip,
DISQUALIFICATION see-the fact is

in the morning for his last weeks bill,
and-if it's not inconvcnient-"
Daphne felt sick with shame, but
she had ~ confess, 81 can't tell you
how sorry I am, but haven't any"
'Really? That's too bad!" Mrs.
Chivvis said. She was hardly sorrier
for herself than for Daphne. She tried
to brighten them both with hope. "But
YOU expect--no doubt you expect soon
to-"
give been looking for-for some
work to do, but there doesn't seem to
be any,"
ooh, I see!" said Mrs. Chivvis, con-
firmed in her suspicious and reduced
to silence Daphne went on. after
swallowing several cObblestones:
"But, of course. I've no right to be
eating your food and staying on here
as a guest. And suppose I'd better
give up my room, so that you can
take in somebody who can pay"
Mrs. Chivvis was close, but she was
not up to an eviction, and she gasped.
ooh, really II hardly Think
shouldn't like"
Her hard voice cracked like an
icicle swapping off the caves in
spring sun and before either of them
quite understood it the hard eyes OF
both thawed; tears streamed, and
they were in each others arms.
Daphne was the better weeper Of
the two. Poor Mrs. Chivvis could not
be really lavish even with tears but
she did very well, for her.
Immediately they felt years better
acuuainted-old friends all of a sud-
den. They were laughing foolishly
when an apologize knock on the open
docr introduced Mr.. Chevvis, who
would no more have crossed the sill
than he would have broken into the
temple of Vesta. His name was Chiv-
Wis, not ClOdius.
The surprised eyes Of Daphne threw
him into confusion but he said: give

'Anything IS better than nothing"
said Daphne, "ard it might be a begin
ning'
She applied the next day and the
firm accepted her.
Now Daphne was truly a working
woman; not a dramatic artist with pc
cuIiar hours, but a tOiler by the clock.
She entered the office of the company
at half-past eight, punched her num-
Der on the time register, and set to
work addressing large envelopes. She
wrote and wrote and wrote till twelve |

SsnIaved some strong and veracious
0ortrats OF men. The photographers
pricps staggered Daphne and she pro-
.ostpd. but he answered dolefully:
I'D give thousand dollars for one
photograph Of my father"
That settled it.
After the sitting Daphne and her
father proceeded to the station. She
stopped at the gate because she had
neither a ticket for the train nor a
nIstform pass from the station master.
She watched him dwindling down
the long platform. He was mere
manikin when he reached his place and
waved to her before he vanished
through the magic door of the train.
She waved to him with her handker-
chief. and when he was gone she bur-
led her eyes in il. Her partings with

Mir. Madden examined also the deposits os placer gold in the beach sands on Kodial, Island, where min ing has been carried on for 90 years, and where the value of the annual output of gold has ranged from $3,OOO to S1O00O. He sketches the geology of the island and describes the beach deposits that contain the gold and their mode of origin, as we'll as the methods used in mining. Here the sea has done for the gold miner the work that is done inland by streams it has assorted and concentrated particles of gold, which were derived from the bluffs that border tha beach for miles along the island. '?ne storm surf along this coast is powerful enough to move bou'ders that weigh tons, and the play of the waves con centrates the fine gold in patches that yield good returns to the miners.
