Bridge Work Progresses
Progress is being made on the new
bridge to span the river at Poison. Creo-
soted plies are being driven daily and
clay for the fill of the east approach is
being hauled In small trucks from the

as only small trucks can be used on ac-

Tother with the regularity unalterable by
war or the death of kings or the shifting
policies of the parliament at Westminster.
One day, returning to his doorstep and
his midday meal, the doctor found a mes
sage awaiting him. Norah delivered it
verbally as she uncovered his chop.
"Miss Corkran sent word after you were
gone askin' you to call Immediate, and I
tould the chap that brought the message
you wasn't an alroplane," said Norah,
dish cover Inverted In her hand, "and to
tell her you was out on your rounds and
wouldn't be back till past noon."
"Bother Miss Corkran," said O'Plynn.
But "bother" wasn't the word he used.
It was always the way with rich patients,
urgent messages to come at once, sent at
Impossible times, and he had experienced
trouble and enough with the Corkran
woman ever since her dog had died a
month ago.
It was In the man's rough and ready
nature to use the word "damn" In con
nection with her, and It was in his na
ture to understand and appreciate her,
this attenuated woman of thirty-five, all
spirit and affection, yet lonely, somehow,
as Robinson Crusoe; without chick or
child, ever ready to help the poor, yet
somehow without the power of making
friends amongst the rich. Instinctive as
a dog. and for that reason, perhaps,
trusting In and loving O'Plynn.
A love that had no more to do with
sex than Battersea park had to do with
the Albert memorial.
A delightful friend, for whom he would
have walked barefooted down Drury Lane,
but the devil of a patient. She had just
that fault. Just that bit of selfishness in
her nature that made her forget a doctor
wasn't an aeroplane, had only legs, in
fact, and dozens and dozens of other
patients to see.
He didn't hurry himself over the meal,
and when he started on his afternoon
rounds he left Miss Corkran almost the
last on his list, arriving at Cunningham
Mansions about four.
II.
It lies close to Gower street, this great
hive of flats, Inhabited by the special
breed of London people who live in flat
land—a creation quite distinct from the
race of London people who still inhabit
houses.
The entrance to Cunningham Man
sions is bleak as the entrance to Penton
ville prison. There is no porter; If the
lift Is down, the boy who runs It will
take you up; If It is not down you ring
and wait.
As his patient lived on the first floor,
O'Flynn did not bother to wait; he went
up the stone stairs, knocked at the door,
and was admitted by Margaret.
Margaret was County Dublin pure and
simple, a stout, matronly woman with
chestnut colored hair worn fiat on the
forehead, and a Dublin accent which Is
to the accent of Kerry as cockney to
West Somerset.
"Is Miss Julia in?" asked the doctor.
"In," said Margaret, "faith, where else
would she be? She hasn't set foot to the
ground since here you were last, achin'
and pinin' on the soft and me near
driven distracted with her."
She took his hat and, leading him
down the passage, ushered him into a
sitting room filled with twilight and the
pleasant flickering of a fire, the perfume
of violets, and the fragrance of China
tea.
Every room has a soul bom of the
spirit of Its inhabitants or inhabitant,
and this room, with Its books in dainty
bindings, its gadgets to Insure comfort.
Its priceless porcelain, and Its three
paintings from the brush of Daubigny,
was a fairly faithful reflection of the
dainty, dreamy, supersensitive and super
civilized soul of Its owner.
By the couch stood a table with tea
things for one. and near the table a chair
with a cushion on which had once re
posed the dog.
Miss Corkran, on the entrance of the
physician, laid down the "Wild Swans of
Coole" that she had been reading.
It Is a thing to be read by twilight or
firelight, and this super-refined sensual
ist had evidently been trying to do both.
She held out a ringless, attenuated hand
to the other, but she did not offer tea.
The Corkrans of Castle Corkran were
a very old Irish family and the O'Flynns
were Just $he O'Flynns; perh
the reason she did not offer
this tried friend, or perhaps It was be
that was
, even to
cause, being bound up In herself, she
didn't think.
He took his seat beside her with a few
words and picked up a book that had
fallen from the couch to the floor. He
noted the title as he placed It on the
table by the tea things, "Have Animals
Souls? Yes!
"And now let's look at your tongue,"
said he.
On that order, given to the common
ality. a mouth flies open like a trap
door and a tongue protrudes itself even
to the roots.
But the Corkrans are different; moving
and moistening her lips, wiping them
with a lace edged handkerchief, she pre
sented a tongue on a salver, so to speak,
a tongue fresh and innocent as the
tongue of a child.
"H'm," said O'Flynn.
He took her pulse, a pulse soft as a
six year old's, even and full of vitality If
not of robustness
"Bad," said O'Plyrm. "You haven't
been doing as I told you. Ob, there's no
use in talking of neuralgia when ye
won't listen to me advice. Here you've
been lying ever since I saw you last."
"Oh, no. I haven't," cut in the pa
tient. "I've been up and about-"
"Up and about! It's up and out I
told you to be. It's not your body, it's
your mind that you want to take out
for a walk; I told you that last time and
I won't tell you again; there now, you
have it plain."
Miss Corkran sighed.
"Here you are," he went on, "Just with
your books and yourself—sore, that's no
way to be living with a great big world
outside and all Its people wanting you."
"I can't bear people," sighed Miss
Corkran. "I know It's wicked and all
that, but I've tried it—ever since—no
matter."
She plaited her handkerchief, and to
O'Flynn there came the suggestion, and
not for the first time, that Julia Cork
ran, In the years before he had been her
doctor and friend, had experienced a
cross in her affections.
"Maybe you never tried the right peo
ple," said he. "I come to you for money
for the poor souls down in Sardinia street
or Drury lane, and out leaps your purse;
never a friend of thé poor better than
you. Well, get into a cab and come down
and see them; the salt of the earth they
are, and the welcome of God they'll give
you."
But Miss Corkran shook her head; she
could do anything for the poor but touch
them. Poverty, squalor, and dirt horri
fied her; she hinted as much and then
she slipped back to her ailments, im
ploring of him a sleeping draft for that
night.

chemist In London I'd trust to make It
up.
Outside he talked a moment to Mar
garet on the landing.
"Oh, don't be asking me how she Is."
said he. "Haven't you eyes In your head
as well as me self? It's dying she is for
the want of that dog. Where's your
senses not to have got her another?"
"Dog," cried Margaret. "I tould her
that, and It's seven fits she went Into at
me words. 'Never another, never an
other!' chles she. Lost she Is over that
wazln' plate-faced brute of a Pekingese."
"Well, It's a dog or an undertaker for
her." said O'Flynn, and off he went.
m.
He took his way back to the surgery on
foot.
A patient like Julia Corkran stands out
strangely In a practice like O'Flynn's. He
had seen that day twenty-one patients
besides those who came to the surgery,
working
gling to
shudder over, and men sure to be Jailed
again within the month, and the only
one of the lot craving pity was Julia
Corkran,
"She's never known trouble and that's
what's the matter with her," said O'Plynn
to himself as he went his way.
And she was worth five or six thousand
a year; this woman without a family had
what would have brought Joy and well
people, small shopkeepers strug-

What Abort Tomorrow—and Day After
LEARN TO FLY
Right Now! When Aviation is coming Into general use and good pilots are
in demand—and always will be from now on. Are you going to be ono of
the Lindberghs, Chamberlains, and Byrds of tomorrow? Or will yon still
be doing the same old thing and let the rest of the World fly past yon?
You Can Learn to Fly
It Is much easin' to fly than to drive a car, bnt it takes more care in learn
ing, because you must develop your Judgment. It comes from repetition,
like training for a race, or practicing piano. And what is more yon can
Learn to Fly Here in Montana
with the VANCE SCHOOL OF FLYING which is being established at Great
Falls. No need to go far away where they take your money, give you a few
hours in the air and forget you. Learn at home where you expect to fly.
There is a difference in flying in high and low altitudes. Learn to fly here
and you can fly anywhere. And farther, yon will get a
Pilots Certificate
which will entitle yon to free advice and Information any time even after
yon have finished our course. In your flying there will be many little
things come up which you do not understand. Our service and advice will
always be free to our graduates. And whether you want to buy a ship or
get a Job as pilot we will serve you.
Time Is Money—Don't Waste It by Delay
Make up your mind—then act. Think this thing over and if you decide to
go into it, do so with all there Is In you. One of the first requirements In
learning to fly Is a desire to learn. Look ahead a few years and can't yon
see airliners connecting all the principal cities of our country and the

VANCE AIR SERVICE
Great Falls, Montana
being to fifty of such families as formed
the staple of his practice.
He thought of this and then forgot the
whole matter as he turned Into Wise
street to see the last patient on his list,
an old woman living down a foggy court
and dying of cancer.
The fog, that gray Bloomsbury fog of
autumn that seems to rise from the past,
was dimming the lamps of Endell street
when he reached it. Carter's the grocer's
and oil shop next door to the surgery,
was casting Its glow right out on the
sidewalk and on his doorstep, half re
vealed by the light of the nearest lamp
and the reflected glow of Carters, was a
bundle propped against the door.
He bent down. It was a baby. A baby
wrapped and wrapped In a dirty old
shawl with other things underneath, no
doubt, to make It warm and comfortable,
for It was asleep; the match he struck
revealed that, also that its face was
dirty.
Beside this living bundle was a small
tin of salmon, tucked close up to it. al
most hidden by the shawl.
O'Flynn flung the match away and
looked up and down the street. Not a
soul, nothing but the bell of a muffin
man, unseen In the mist, and the far
murmur of traffic from the streets be
yond.
It wasn't his first experience of the
sort. Only a few months ago a three
months old child had been left In his

YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE
MONEY IS HERE
NEVER before in the history of BUSINESS enterprise has an opportunity
presented Itself. WHEREBY the man of average means can, with SMALL
INVESTMENT, become a part of a great commercial development, namely,
the wholesale propagation of MUSKRATS.
Did you know that the demand for MUSKRAT pelts is far in excess of the
supply? That the MUSKRAT is the very "backbone" of the fur industry.
"As the MUSKRAT goes, so goes the market.
Did you know that you can, on a SMALL Investment, MAKE BIG MONEY—
breeding MUSKRATS?
More than this, YOU are GUARANTEED to MAKE MONEY—on YOUR In
vestment. Read on! .YOUR opportunity is here—NOW!
» '
The Co-operative Plan
of the Montana Muskrat Breeders, Inc.
GREAT FALLS, MONTANA
A trio or UNIT (three) of MUSKRATS, two females and one male are sold to
you for the sum of $100. The Corporation will ranch your MUSKRATS on
their RIVERDALE COLONY of 250 acres,Iocated 23 miles Southwest of Great
Falls, Montana, for FORTY YEARS. YOUR NET EARNINGS ARE GUAR
ANTEED to be FIFTY PER CENT of the natural Increase. .Payable either in
CASH, Breeding Stock or Pelts, as YOU elect.
MANAGEMENT
YOU will want to know about the management. Right here you will be ask
ing the question: "Are the officers and directors men of proven integrity,
ability and experience?" Let the records of the officers speak for them:
ED. N. DAVIS, President and General Manager, residing at Great Falls, Mon
tana, was born in the state of Montana 42 years ago. Was for many years
in business In Dillon and Anaconda, Montana.
G. S. LEUCHARS, Secretary and Treasurer, residing at Great Falls, Montana,
was born In the city of Great Falls, Montana 32 years ago. For four years a
deputy Clerk of the Court. For the past three years Chief Deputy County
Auditor.
JNO. S. COOK, Vice President, residing at Great Falls, Montana, is one of
the early pioneers of Montana. Chief Auditor and Auditor for ten years.
At present Auditor for the County of Cascade.
YOUR OPPORTUNITY FOR PROFIT
Taking the low average of 16 YOUNG MUSKRATS from one female per sea
son and starting with a TRIO UNIT, your one-half of the natural increase
should work out as follows:
The FIRST YEAR you should have 16 young MUSKRATS from your trio of
eld ones; 8 of these should be females, and the two females you had to
start with should give you a total of 10 females to start the second breeding
season with; 10x16 equals 160. Your one-half of this increase should he 80,
and the 16 increase you had at the end of the first year, and the trio you
had to start with should give you a grand total of 99 MUSKRATS at the
end of the second breeding season.
NOW the company will keep over for you, for the following years, FIVE
PAIRS of MUSKRATS, leaving you a total of 89 to sell.
NOW if you should sell the pelts of your 89 MUSKRATS for only $2,
should receive $178.00 CASH, and you would still have YOUR 10 MUSKRATS
left on the ranch as foundation stock.
The THIRD YEAR and every year thereafter should work out as follows:

surgery, in a basket like a turkey. A
London doctor, if he Is known to be a
man of good heart amongst the lower
orders, is liable to this sort of surprise,
It had been sent promptly to the parish,
and the fact advertised as a deterrent to
similar contributors—yet here was an
other—and bigger than the last.
He bent down and picked the bundle
up, kicked the tin of salmon on to the
pavement, and opened the door with his
latch key.
Upstairs in the sitting room, with the
bundle on Norah's lap before the fire,
unwrapping produced not only a fat
child of one and a bit. Just rousing from
sleep and winding itself up to cry, but a
feeding bottle with a long unhygenic
rubber tube and teat.
Norah popped the teat in Its mouth
and after a second's Indecision It chose
the better part and sucked.
The doctor, standing with his back to
the fire, watched It as it sat, its black,
beady eyes taking In the points of this
new environment as It fed. It was a
boy.
The other had been a girl. The other
had been very well dressed, had worn a
veil and little woolen gloves, and with hla
terrible knowledge of London and local
life, he could have put his finger on the
district It came from and on the sort of
woman who had deserted It.
To be concluded next week.
