gentleman bought the little rabbit
girl some sassafras drops. They
were on their way home, going
through the woods, and Susie
stopped for a minute to open her

the bad old Bushy Bear.
Come on, Susie! Run! RUM
cried Uncle Wiggily.
He and Susie ran as fast as they
could, but the Bushy Bear ran
after them, champing his teeth and
growing:
Ears! Ears! / must have ears!"
"Well, you shan't have Uncle

she suddenly stopped in the bright
sunshine and began to open her

HECTIC DAYS.

CHAPTER IS.
After reading the paper the next
morning, Dick was not quite so de-
pressed, 1t seemed it made light
of the slump, and prophesied It
was about over.

said, woman-like, sure to say, II

chance.

kissed us goodbye, and left with the
most serious face he had shown
for a long time.
After he left sat right down and
read every word there was in the
paper about financial matters.
Much of 1t / did not understand,
but it was optimistic, so l tried to
persuade myself. Anyway 1 could
even call up and ask what the

Dick hated me to call the office,
but knew he would appreciate my
anxiety, SO would not be cross.

aloud as sank IL a chair thor

market, the fear we had lost our
money, that had tired me.
/ wondered how Dick could stand
1t. Before, when things were either
standing still, or favoring us, l had
given 1t no thought--the nervous,
wearing strain it must be on Dick,
and of course on other men who
risked what they had in the hope of
making more.
At o'clock Dick came in. He
looked tired, showed the strain of
the day plainly, hut he was not 50
pale, nor SO worried looking as he
had been the night before. 1t was
good omen.

In order to give tho reader Of this

look back few years to the busy days
of construction of the Canal, when
labor was in great demand an. wages

those days that tens Of thousands OF
West Indians and hundreds of Amcri

in search Of employment and Il living

This process of immigration contin

time immigration in largo numbers

an economic problem. An end, also,
was put to agriculture. or stock, or
poultry raising, exception on Il very
limited scale and under certain strict
ly prescribed conditions.
Furthermore, only employees Of
the Canal or Of the Pana-
ma Railroad Company were per-
mittcd to occupy living quarters on
the Zone and as a consequence all
who lost this employment either quit
the country. which was done in very
. few cases. or flocicd into tho cities Of
Panama and Colon, or into other Dor
