He was going to Jump up and kick some

that Mrs. Bowser might be looking, and he
eat up and looked around and pretended to
be resting.
Nothing could be seen Of Mrs. Bowser,
however, and after couple Of minutes he
got up and moistened his hands for fresh
start. Everything went as smooth as grease
for the next twenty feet. Then the mower
picked up hundred feet Of stovepipe wire
and waited for results.
"That woman's hand again" hoarsely
whispered Mr.. Bowser as he saw what was
the matter: "but wouldn't give in now II
] knew that death wasn't two rods off"
Il took him ten minutes to clear away
the wire. When this had been accom-
