4 of negroes in very blue shirts were
cutting yellow sugar-cane; and in a
picture Of the arctic regions, a ship
was frozen among stlaw-colored and
scarlet icebergs. while orange and
vermillion Northern Lights streamed
over the scene. Out from the leaves
luttered bit of paper, upon which
Tommy again vouchsafed informa-
ton.
Fred writ that right in-the
teacher had company-her feller, l
guess" he added, by way of explana-
ton. He was going to put it in
the post-office, but had to get an en-
velope first. Read it." And Tom
my gIowed with pride at Fred's
skill. i give him the paper" he
added, swelling with generosity.
The paper looked as if 1t had been
cut with a dull knife from the back
Of an old letter; and Lutte read:
MIR. SKoFIELD l do not want YOU
to think what I sed about my sister
was tru toIed it to PLACE hir she
get up before l do she is the best girl
in the world and I guess you think
so two l rote this becaws I do not
want what I sed too be Iy.
FRED. RANDALL"
Teacher thought he was writin'
in his writin-book all the time"
sni :kered Tommy, but Lutte didn't
hear.
1t was very still now. The early
twilight had fallen and it was almost
dark, but nobody had thought Of
lamps. Aunt Harriet was slowly
rocking to and fro; Lutte. having
cried herself so sick that she could
cry no more, lay on the sofa. trying
hard not to think; Tommy was
stretched beside her on the floor:
and Bridget, with her apron over her
head, was rocking back and forth on
the kitchen floor, moaning for the
'Jwo eyes that werr the light Of the
house, Was that the street doorz
1t shut with a slam. Gus Robbins,
probably. Why couldn't people stay
away just now. Somebody tumbled
on the stairs. How much that sound
ed ike Fred! five could only hear
him tumble up stairs again
why, what are you all in the
dark for?" Everybody jumped.
There was no mistake this time, for
this was nobody but Fred.
In answer to Aunt Harriet's and
Lute's questions and Tommy.s open
mouthed wonder, he only said, 20,
Bridget is so stupid, We went up
on Thompson's hill after beech-nuts.
and Rufe Douglass did fall out of
tIee and break his arm. When father
and mother found me all right, they
thought they'd go round by Uncle
Jobs. Father told me to come and
tell YOU, but l wanted to 90 round
by Lin Foye's and see il his doves
had any squads yet, so l didn't get
along very quick. Been to supper?
I'm bout starved"
supper. Vino had thought of sup
per?-and going after squads when
they were suffering so. They didn't
know whether to give him all the
preserves he could eat, for JOY that
he was safe. or send him to bed with
out a mouthful, they were SO vexed
at his not getting "along very
quick"
But l rather think JOY triumphed,
for it was reported Fred had said at
school it was .'irst-rate to have folks
think you were drowned, it made 'em
awful clever to a feller''; and about
week after, as Bridget was scolding
because Fred had left mud-tracks on
the clean floor, when he had been
told 50 many times to wipe his feet,
Lutte wiped up the mud herself and
said, you can't expect boy to re-
member everything, Bridget. Our
