he was going to marry you. They

sorrow or he may be Furnishing

get your things?"
I will"
"Well-so long-don't grieve too
much"
Chickie walked on, found herself
again opposite the Italian church.
She went over and entered the gar
den. At the side door of the chapel
an old, furrowed woman, her skin
hard and brown as soil, stretched
out a lean hand. She raised i'm
ploring eyes: ''Vera poor-vera
poor
Chickie gave her a dime. She
said: MAY I go IMP"
The old woman nodded: Sure
sure!'
She stood in the back Of the
church. A young woman with clear
features and very beautiful dark
eyes stood before statue. The girl
had a child in her arms and raised
1t upward Then she bowed her
head and prayed. There came such
a look of faith and trust in her low
cred eyes. Chickie wondered.
AS the girl passed she blocked her
way. She touched the baby's hand,
saying: Isn't it pretty
"Oh-you think SOP
"Very-are you teaching it to pray
so early?"
The girl smiled: mot too soon-l
give her to Mary-Mary the Mother
of God-she take care-take care
Of her"
ChHkie walked over and stood be
fore the statue. 1t was robed quaint
ly in blue and white. Candles burned
before it.
She looked at it long while, see
ing a sweetness, an eternal youth
and sadness in the features. Il
moved her-ah-to feel as that CIR
did that a spirit leaned down from
heaven and watched and cared and
guarded!
She did not feel so-had not felt
80 in months and months. Yet sud
denly she dropped on her knees. She
prayed. She asked that this tragedy
would not be put upon her.
1t was dim within the quiet
church, the candles and the flowers
soft brightness like holy smiles
The place was filled with peace.
Going out Chickie's eyes were wet
She bought a paper. There, for the
first time in three days was an item
the item she sought.

in an avalanche. She shut her eyes
to fight them off. The scenes
marched into her mind. The night
in the little parlor when he had
come to bid her goodby and she
stood so quiet in the darkness that
fell upon her heart; that hour in the
restaurant when he gripped the
chair, the beautifully set head low
cred. Oh-and she had asked him:
Barry, you mean that Wen be mar
ried? Is that what you mean"
Chickie pressed her hands now to
her throat. She went over and sat
on the bed. She was shaking from
head to foot. No use to stop now.
Scene by scene she would go through
it to the last bitterest detail-even
to the moment when Jonathan
raised her in his giant arms, shout
ing 10 the coroner: my daughter,
sir No outcastr'
These lashings of memory left her
limp: left her conquered. She was
afraid of them.
They came like an assault. She
would run from them. Or she would
dump out all the contents of her
bureau, rearranging them-anything
to keep herself in frenzy Of activ-
ity.
Now she wiped her face, saying
sofetly: "I can't go on like this. "
She repeated this, staring at a crack
in the high ceiling; then at a long
streamer Of dust.
And she knew that she had come
down here not to Condemn. but to
prove herself; that 81 had left those
two saddened and alone. yet left
them with a mighty faith in her,
their dear and only one; that at
night they reached down in the dark
for each others hand, and prayed
together for her. She knew this.
She picked up her purse, rear
ranging her hat. She said to herself,
childishly: You expected all this,
didn't your Cry about it! Oh, yesr
Walking down the street. she held
her head erect. She looked about
and smiled. Once she paused and
glanced over titles in a book shop.
She was thinking absently: II feel

Sour Stomach
Phillips Milk of Magnesia"
Better than Soda


Instead Of soda hereafter take a
little Phillips Milk of Magnesia" in
water any time for indigestion or
sour, acid, gassy stomach, and re-
lief will come instantly
For fifty years genuine Phillips
Milk of Magnesia" has been pre-
scribed by physicians because it over
comes three times as much acid in
the stomach as a saturated solution
of bicarbonate of soda, leaving the
stomach sweet and free from all
gases. 1t neutralizes acid fermen-
tations in the bowels and gently
urges the souring waste from the
system without purging. Besides, it
is more pleasant to take than soda.

CHAPTER XVI
Chickie's Caller

Chickie opened her bag to make
sure that her keys were there. Then
she dumped the contents on the ia.
BILE and put them back in orderly
fashion-her purse, a handkerchief
powder case, cards, pencil and
finally the keys-all these. Still she
hesitated.
She was going out to register with
all the typewriter companies; ask
another chance. All her nerves were
heavy with reluctance.
Just before awakening she had
dreamed. Jonathan came to her
door, chuckle in his old eyes. He
called: "Sleep all day, Chickie girl:
Hot biscuits-smell EN-? Hurry
now!" She had stretched out her
arms in glorious laziness.
But in the dream it was years ago
that time when there would be a
rose on the kitchen table and she
would pin it so gaily on her blue
suit. 1t was before all this.
She pulled her hat down over her
brows and dabbed more powder on
her nose. In her heart she didn t
care about a job; didn't want to
walk out in the fragrant. uplifting
sunlight.
For it occurred to her after that
letter from Willman's office--the let
ter sEloise had typed that she was
irrevocably pinioned to the Past. No
matter what effort she made, she
would be Knocked.
Like that nightmare that had
troubled her so when she dozed at
Jennie's bedside. She had gone back
searching for the grave. But no
stone marked 1t and she couldn't
find the place. A man passed, point
ed at something, then at her. An
other passed who also pointed. Many
came-dozens-hun They be-
gan to shout: cts there Can't
you see? Therew A frantic terror
seized her.
Life was like that dream. She
might forget - drink an hours glad
peace. But the world would point.

With a still foreboding she took
it to her room. Enclosed was
check for the salary due her. The
note was brief.
Dear Miss Bryce-You will find
herewith the money due you. / have
formally to advise you that your
services are no longer required.
Very truly yours,
ROBERT LOWNEY."
It was not the brevity of Will
mans efficiency expert. 1t was the
initials "E. NJ in the corner that
struck with such shame into
Chickie's mind.
Eloise had typed the letter. Eloise
knew of the dismissal when she met
her; when Chickie had said so airily:
''Yes-Im quitting-I don't find 1t
pleasant to be at the beck and call
Of the Whitman family"
What else did Eloise know? They
had heard rumors-all the girls in
the office were surmising.
They would read the papers to-
night and they would have more to
say.
1t occurred to Chickie that she
knew of her abrupt dismissal from
Winetka. They had heard that
Edith ordered her out.
She folded the check slowly,
little sneaking dependence wearing
into her mind. She said simply: "I'll
never get anywhere. 1 never will. ;"
She went over to her window. The
fading light had always such
breath of holiness about it and the
clouds were silver. She traced their
wings of gauze. And she wanted to
cry just out Of pity for herself.
She wrote her name on the glass,
shook back her head because the
tears were there, but they weren't
going to fall. She wrote her name
again this time, just Helen"
She thought quietly and it was of
the night she had stood in the dim
room. Lee whitman raised the
candle till it's soft, amber glow
suffused the Swallowed image-face
of a girl with the beauty and sad.
ness in her eyes-Chickie's face. He
had turned to her ali flame and
eagerness: 1.-The spirit of the room
the most beautiful thing-you,
Helen!'
But she was not that. And he
could not bear the piercing disillu-
sion.
She wondered now If she had done
him such a wrong. If he or any one
had such a right to ask special
beau from life and if they mad a
right to fling up Respondent hands
because they were denied.
There had been time when
Chickie issued such an ultimatum
Life must come sweeping in glory. 1t
must, indeed. Oh, she would never
be refused.
Now she knew that she was but
the faintest murmur in the eternal
song that sweeps the centuries. The
chords she uttered might be lost;
the song would thunder on. She
might raise her voice and fill out
the mighty chorus.
Or she might sink away and
not to her fancy. She had thought
of this-oh, wished to hide away
like that. Now she knew that this
was but the towards part.
And sadly it occurred to her that
what he did was the selfish thing
though the blame of it was hers. He
had turned from her because she
was not that pure and stainless
thing.
She said now, with her lips NOV
ing and moving, I'm that! AL
ways"
The muteness and the apathy of
her first days here went stealing
through her. Begin again-all over
try it another time-oh-but it
would be the same-some one would
hear-some one would tell.
And the peace would go out Of
her heart.

July IL and IL when the scientists
will be at University Farm and in the
Twin Cities. The field plots at the
farm, field crop disease experiments,
and plant breeding nurseries will be
inspected and studied. A luncheon
in Minneapolis, a banquet and smok-
lunch in the university woods are
some of the social features now being
arranged for the guest party. Sight
seeing trips in the two cities and bot
anizing jaunts to country districts
are also planned, likewise visit to
Minneapolis flour mills or field trip
to the Coon Creek peat and sand ex-
perimental plots.
The third stage of the outing will
be undertaken the evening of July
IL when the visitors will leave for
the North Dakota station at Fargo.
Several men from the United States
Department of Agriculture will take
part in the conference.
n
Sudan Grass Good for nforcing
| Pastures-Pastures have been hard
hit by drouth in many Minnesota
! farming localities. In some instances
| farmers have found it necessary to
pasture some of their hay land. In
others, the livestock has been turned
+, into oat fields
Sudan grass, if drilled in right
away at the rate of 80 pounds of seed
| to the acre, will, under ordinary
growing conditions, give pasture IN
40 to so days, says A. c. Army, OF
the farm crops section OF the unlver-
sity. Where soil constituents are ia
vorable, IL pounds of scarified sweet
| clover seed sown to the acre should
give pasture in the fall. The seed
should be inoculated. Rape makes a
fine pasture for hogs and sheep. Sow
four pounds to the acre.
A soiling crop like corn, planted
from two to four inches apart in the
drill row, will ordinarily furnish
good feed and help to piece out pas
lures later in the season.
Two Big Days for State Veterin-
arians-"Opportunities were never
brighter for the veterinarian" says
DR.. V. A. Moore of the New York
State Veterinary College at Ithaca.
AS the number of animals requiring
veterinary attention is increasing
while the number of veterinarians is
falling off, DR.. Moore contends that
the profession offers unexcelled op-
portunities with little competition.
DR. Moore is coming to Minnesota
to take part in symposium on The
Veterinarian and His Future" which
will be a distinct feature of the pro-
gram for the short course and semi
annual meeting of the Minnesota
State Veterinary Medical association
to be held at University Farm, St.
Paul, July Is and 16. The symposi-
um, to which DIR. N. S. Mayo of the
Abbott Laboratories, Chicago, and
Dean w. C. Coffey of the University
Department of Agriculture, will al
so contribute, will follow a cafeteria
dinner at the farm the evening of
July Is.
Dr.. c. P. Fitch, chief of university
veterinarians and secretary-treasurer
of the Minnesota Association, has
prepared program of addresses and
clinics by the leaders of the profess
