dreadfully sorry it seemed as if

You've invited me for five days longer,
but don't deserve to stay, and think

Molly's lips quivered; and suddenly
she laid her face against Mrs. St.
Glars arm and burst into tears.
Mrs. St. Clair put her arm around
her. She did not speak, but there were
tears in her eyes. AS to Esther, she
made no secret of the fact that she
was crying in pure sympathy; and Mr..
Arnsworth coughed several times,
winked hard, and looked off UP the
road. Mrs. st. Clair stroked Mollys
head.
Shall we let her go?" she asked of
Mr. Arnsworth, in a murmur: and he
answered, after moment of consider
alton: Yes, if she doesn't change her
mind, 7 think we'd better"
Molly did not change her mind. She
stuck to her resolution. Il think bet
ter of her for it, too," said Mr.. Arms
worth. And the next morning he had
one of his horses put into his single
buggy, and drove Molly home, her
trunk following in the stage.
Certainly it was rather hard for her
to say goodby to Mrs. ST. Clair and
Esther, and to the lovely West View:
yet when they were fairly off, the load
began to lift from Molly's heart, and
her spirits rose with every mile they
made.
Molly said Mr.. Arnsworth, slow
ing his horse, 81 am in your debt I
have enjoyed your society SO much that
1 really feel that L owe you something.
And if L could do something for YOUR
brother Dan, you'd like it, wouldn't
you? 1t would be as good as doing it
for you?"
1T would be better" said Molly
WELL" said Mr.. Arnsworth, you
told me that your brother can draw
well, and that he wants to learn it. I
haven't forgotten your telling kle that,
and 1 have been thinking it over. You

ooh" Molly gasped, "oh!" And for
some time that was every word that
she could say.
Dan was the first object Molly saw,
when they drove up to the gate. He
was putting a new coat of paint on the
porch railing; he had on his same old
clothes, looking, indeed, rather the
worse for the daubs of paint he had
got on them. But Molly did not care
for paint. Her mother came to the
door, and she waved a glad hand to
her-but she made rush for Dan, and
flung her arms around him, paint and
all, and pressed her warm cheek to his

THE MooKA'S TOE.
A Strange Story of Strange crea-
ture


Copyright 1898, by Frank CraneO
One day James was coming home
from school and as he was going along
the street he saw lying on the side
walk somebody's little toe. He picked
it UP and looked at it. 1t was queer
looking. You know, little toes are all
folded and bent up together and are
very odd shaped. He wiggled it back
and forth and played with it, and final
ly put it in his pocket. He forgot all
about it by the time he had reached
home.
That night about midnight James was
awakened by some one tapping at his
window. He sat up in bed and saw
there, Deering into the window, an old
Mooka- The Mooka said, in deep, bass
voice:
Where is my little toe?'
Now, James was very much fright
ened and did not know what to do
The Mooka said again:
Where is my littles toe?'
AS James did not answer, the Mooka.
raised the sash and put in his head,
and said again:
do you know wnere my little toe
is?'
YES" said James, I'll get it for you.
just wait there; I'll get it,
I He arose and searched for his trous-
ers. But 1 must tell you of a very bad
habit that James had: When he I'M
dressed at night, instead of laying all
his clothes neatly together where he
could find them in the morning, he
would scatter them everywhere Then
in the morning he would have a very
hard time finding them. His shoes
and stockings and coat and tie would
be distributed all over the house
And now, therefore, he could not find
his trousers. He went into mamma s
| room and looked all around; then he
I went into the girls room and then into
grandma's room, and he looked and he
looked, but nowhere We're those trous-
ers to be seen.
He had to come back and tell the

Mr.. Arnsworth asked her if she would
like an olive and answered with a
tremble in her voice. She could not eat
much. 1t was strange that a dinner at
the West View should seem to her I'M
pleasantly long, but that dinner did.
When it was over she went up to her
room. She opened the package first. 1t
contained, carefully wrapped, a pretty
red leather belt and a lace-bordered
handkerchief. Molly turned them over
and over, then she read the letter:
Dear Old Molly" Dan wrote. How
are you? 1 hope you're having a dandy
time I've bought something for you,
and I'm going to send it with this.
Mamie Dakin has got a red belt, and I
thought you'd like one. The handker
chief goes with it. Wear them, and
think of your affectionate brother.

says to tell you she will write tomor-
row. wash the dishes for her
mostly"
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1898-11-27

Molly sat very still with the letter in
her hand. DAN she whispered, dear
DAM And he hasn't much money"
She laid the red belt against her cheek.
She was a good girl at heart, a good
daughter and a loving sister, and it
seemed now as if her heart would
break, so full it was of surging, burn
ing feeling. She sat there, thinking,
quite still and rather pale. And after
long and serious time she rose. NOT as
with sudden impulse, but deliberately
She felt better; she threw an encourag-
ing look at herself in the glass, and
she went bravely downstairs.
Esther and her mother were on the
piazza with Mr.. Arnsworth. Molly sat
down with them; she laid an appealing
hand on Mrs. st. Glars.
Mrs. st. Clair" she said, q want
to go home. You've been lovely to me

window He was so big and lubberly
that he could not move very fast, so
James got behind the door leading in
to mammals room and watched him.
He was great big, white Mooka, all
soft and fat like a bag of -four, and he
had long white arms. He had a large
mouth and two great teeth, one in the
upper and one in the lower jaw, and
James thought how those sharp teeth
would hurt when they bit off his toe.
When the Mooka at length had
squeezed through the window, James
decided that it was time for him to
run away. So he shut and bolted the
door and ran around to the other side
of mammals bed.
But Mookas can go through any hole
or crack, no matter how small it is.
And pretty soon James saw something
white, like a string, coming through the

notion to Molly. 1t came to be a. set
tied thing that he should take Molly
when he drove, or Molly and Esther,
or Molly and Mrs. st. Clair, or all
three. 1t was quite an advantage, too,
for Mr.. Arnsworth had brought his
own horses and equipages from the
city and drove often.

the sun shone brilliantly in a blue sky.

Dan over home; he was coming from
the Barstows with a pail of sour milk
for his pig, and he had on his old
clothes-and he did look funny-and
Il didn't speak to him. I was ashamed
of him. I was glad you and Esther
didn't see him; I didn' want Mr.. Arms
