My .alary came as rogu-\niarly as an annuity ami there was evory\nprospect fur advancement. The garden\ndid well, and Ruth became acquainted\nwith most of the women in a sociable\nway.

I\nCHAPTER II.\nThirty Dollars a Week\nWhen, with Ruth on my arm, I walked up the steps of the house and unlocked the front door, I entered upon a\nnew lite. It was my lirst tasto of\nhome since my mother (lied and added\nto tuat Wiis this new love which was\nfiner than anything I had ever dreamed\nabout. It seemed hard to have to leave\nevery morning at half past six and not\nget back until after (ive at night, but\nto offset this we used to got up as early\niis four o'clock during the long summer days. Many thu time even iu\n.Funo Ruth and I ate our breakfast by\nlamp-light, It gavo us an extra hour,\nand she was bred in the country where\ngetting up in tho morning is no great\nhardship.\nWe couldn't afford a servant, and\nwe didn't, want one. Ruth was n fine\ncook, and I certainly did justice to her\ndishes after ten years of restaurants\nand boarding houses. On rainy days,\nwhen we couldn't get out. she used to\ndo her cooking early so that 1 might\nwatch her. It seemed a lot more like\nher cooking when 1 saw her pat out\nthe dough ami put it iu thc oven instead of coming home and finding it\nall done. I used to fill up my pipe nnd\nsit by the kitchen stove until 1 had\njust time to catch the train by sprint\ning.\nBut when the morning was tine we'd\n1 guess Ruth was a little shy about hei*\nclothes. She dressed mighty well to\nmy eye but she made most of her things\nherself and didn't care much about\nstylo. She didn't notice the dilVcrcnce\nat home, but when she was out anion;-'\nothers, they made her feel it. However, spring came around again anil\nwe forgot all about those details. We\ndidn't go in town so much that summer and used to spend more time on our\npiazza. I saw more of the men in this\nway and fouud them a pleasant, com-\n\u2022innionnble lot. They asked mo to join\nconfronted me. And ihat\nhow to get enough ahead\ntc give him a fair start\nnlized. I'm, that 1 wanted\nhim to do something better than I had\n.lone. When I slopped to think of it.\nI had accomplished mighty little. I\nhiid lived and that, was about, all, That\nI had lived happily was due to Ruth.\n1 Wit if 1 was finding difficulty in keeping even wilh the game now, what was\n1 going to do when the youngster would\nprove :i decidedly more serious item of\nexpense.'\nI talked this over with Ruth and wc\nboth decided that somehow, iu some\nway, we must save some money every\nyear. We sliirted in by reducing our\nhousehold expenses still further. But\nit Boomed ns though fate were against\nus for prices rose jusi enough to absorb all our little economies. Flour\nwent up and sugar weut up. and though\nwe had done away with meat almost\nwholly now, vegetables went up.

The sellers of llie\n\\ milk and cream nre gelling less for\nj their produce, while the wholesalers\narc making more. Then again, in\nconnection with the shipping in of\nthe American product, the government insists on tlie llritish Columbia\nvendors of milk submitting their:\nj buildings and animals to sanitary I\nland tubcrctiline tests from which I\n(lie American dealers are exempt, j\nThe question was debated al eon-,\nIsidernblo length by n number of the\ngentlemen present and the senli-:\nment of the bom- crystal izod iu the\nfollowing resolution. Kekert, Chilli,\nwaek; Buckingham, Ebiirno,\u2014-\nThat a committee of three be ap-\npointed to confer wilh the Medical\nHealth -Ulcer at Vancouver and!\ndiscuss with him the quasi ion of\ntests and also look into tbe matter\nof prices and further to take up the!\nquestion with the provincial government. This resolution was with\ndrawn.\nThe appointment by tbe govornmont of official milk testers was\ndiscussed at considerable length\nand great dissatisfaction was ex-\npressed in connection with the\ntesls being mnde at the present\ntime. Those win. were familiar]\nwith the situation staled emphatically that tho government could\nnut at the present time see its way .\nclear to make such appointments,\nThere scented to be a general\nmovement towards organization of\nall the milk and cream producers;\nin the valley so as to break the\nthrottle hold which lho wholesalers\nwere alleged to have. The 'armors,\nthey considered, should boycott\nthose dealers who were handling\nthe Amoriean milk.\nIt was moved by Messrs. Kekert\nand Buckingham\u2014That a committee In- appointed to interview\nthe Medical Health -Ulcers of the\ncoast cities with regard In regulations\nami Inspection of milk iu this\nlocality and not with the provincial\ncommittee appointed from the\nDairymen's Association in ibe matter, and seek such legislation its\nwill help ihe dairymen,\nThe uml ion earned nnd the following gentlemen were appollllod In represent the convention: Messrs.1\nLaity, Port Hammondi Harrow.\nChilliwaek, and Benson, Delta.\nIn connection with Ibe matter of,\norganization the following resolution\nin- l.rotiglii Forward by Mr. Kekert.\nnl Chilliwaek and s nded hy Mr,\nMoLollan, of Langloy, That this!\nconvention organize itself along the\nlines of thc chilliwack Association\nand that one representative each\nbo appointed from Mntsqul, Sumas,!\nLangloy, Maple Ridge, Surrey,\nDelia and other municipalities ill-1\n(crested, these gentlemen to bring\ndown a plan of organisation at the\nnext meeting of tbe convention.!\nll was moved in amendment by\nMr. II.

So\nthe Persian government, thinking that\nthe United States had no axe to grind\nin Persian a Hairs, appealed to Taft\nto send over a smart man to put the\nfinances on a business basis.\nTaft picked out Shufiter.
