pay its clerks by heck hereafter as i have naver felt very safe in handing out a lot of money to the young women from your office when they called for the payrotl large payrolls are attract ing thieves these days the teller of the merchants national bank smiled pleasantly at margaret beirne as he cashed her first check under the new office rule margaret blushed it was many a day since anyone had called her young thirty young it was nice of that teller though to think of her risk in carrying the payroll not many these days gave much thought to anybody except them selves as she walked slowly home ward she felt she must be getting mushy to let a few considerate words from a mere business ac quaintance make such an impres sion on her life was getting terribly mo notonous just the same the same old routine day in and day outl how did others stand it hadnt she acted as mentor chap eron and confidante to nearly a hun dred girls who had passed in and out under her supervision over a large number of girls in a mer cantile house hadnt she given en couragement and a helping hand whenever needed she wasnt throw ing any bouquets at herself either when she admitted that she had done all these things just now there was a new girl patricia smith the blondest girl she had ever seen almost too at tractive tor a business office she had been with them now for almost six months and the readiness with which she took every suggestion and correction showed her eagerness to made good she hadnt any mother either poor kid well just another responsibility maybe shed be thanked for it maybe not with patricia s advent the in evitable had happened nearly ev ery single man in the outer office had found an excuse to visit the inner office to consult miss beirne on matters about which they couldnt be told a thing patricia smith kept her eyes on her book at such times and raced through her letters it rained hard the following night and she was hurrying out just be hind patsy when she noticed a green roadster which swept the curb just as patsy reached it and a man s voice called out come along kid dont you know it s raining patsy tossed her head and kept on her way but miss beirne walked right up to the man she pointed her finger at the traffic officer in the middle of the street see that policeman she said sternly if ever i see you or your roadster around here again ill call kindness to stoat animals a kindhearted woman door to find a shaggy illkept dog sitting huddled n the doorstep he shivered in the cold wind and looked up at her with hungryeyes hn smith herself a de voted friend to animals immediately turned back mto the kitchen and pre pared a pan of food and another of warm muk and calling the dog took them to the garage where he could eat his breakfast protected from the mrs smith had noticed that the dog old not wear collar atop so felt certain he was without a she hated to see the dog sent to thepound for lack of a license and yet she felt she could not keep him for she already hada dog of her own besides a home on a busy street in a city is not the ideal place to keep a big shepherd collie he ought to be on a farm where there 4s plenty of roam to run mrs smith said to herself realising that there might be several fanners in unit vicinity who would be only too glad to give the dog a home if they knew about him suddenly the idea came to mrs smith to place a small ad in the local paper asking for a good home for the stray dog however she waived a day to see if the dog would remain with her and if anyone might call to claim htm the dog was only too glad to remain and showed how grateful he was for his warm home and the good meals by the expression in his eyes and the friendly wag of his tajl after two days had passed and she had not been able to learn of an owner she placed her ad in the newspaper- for a small sum shp found thpaper would print her request in two different editions but before the second paper appeared people began to call at her home to ask for the dog among the various applicants mrs smith chose to give him to a kindlooting farmer with a family of boys and guis the big dog seemed to take an immedi ate liking to the man and his little girl who accompanied him seeing this mrs smith felt the transaction would be a good one theqdg would get a good home and the fanner a good dog several weeks later this kind lady had the opportunity of visiting at the farm to see how dog and master were geting along what she saw more than repaid her for the effort on her part in securing the home the dogs coat was no longer rough his brown eyes had lost their hunted look and his lean body was begin ning to show the result of good keepf too the farmer praised the dog his quickness in learning bring the cows from the pasture and in keeping the chickens out of the yard and garden the three boys and two girts and the dog had formed mutual admiration society 1 mrs smiths kindness to this stray animal is but an example of helping one or the least of these with just a little effort on the part of men women boys and girls everywhere many of the stray animals who come to our doors asking only for the right to live and the bit of abetter and food necessary for life could be provided with good homes where the could spend their days contentedly many of them very useful to their master and mistress lois m mar-

man said with a laugh as he darted into the traffic the day came when miss beirne sadly felt it her duty to teu patsy she had gone as far as she could get in that particular office stay here as long as you like she told her but my advice is to get into an accountants position in the banks or bonding houses where youll have a -better- future as long as i work im going to stay right here said patsy decid edly returning home from the public library several nights later miss beirne got caught in a traffic jam just long enough to glimpse patsy smith in a luxurious limousine re splendent in an evening gown of orchid velvet with a glittering ban deau drawn low on her forehead the attentive young man of the green roadster was with her it was such a shock that she lay awake half the night thinking up a way to diplomatically approach patsy and show her the folly of being seen about with a man so evidently no of her workaday world patsy she began solemnly the next morning im going to speak to you just as your mother would i m glad of that and i hope you will be my mother some day was the unexpected reply of patsy vou like my father don t you why child i dont even know your father
