sorry.
Carleton regarded him long and
thoughtfully.

Don wagged his tail anxiously and
With doubt. He didn't understand,
only that things were not at all right
and that there was trouble ahead.
When Miss Barclay came down the
next morning she found the big point

blank amazement looking at the dog.
Don sat down and smiled at her,
thrashing his tail vigorously among

but mighty friendly.
The girl approached slowly. Don
watched her, but made no extravagant
demonstrations. It was point In his

N/l quiet little towns by the
southern sea where many

It's chief beauty lay IN the wide forest
OF 1--we oaks ali about. through which
wound the level driveway with its ac-
companying bicycle path. The sea
knocked lazily at the door, but never

little town to give 1t any attention be-

bathing party or clam baking expedi-

large and black In the moonlight and
the scene particularly adapted to the
telling Of ghost stories and the walks
home eninently well suited to the tell
ing of love stories which, while not so
thrilling, were infinitely more satisfac-
tory.
Carleton saw her on the avenue one
morning. He watched her enter GER
tain house with magnolias in the front
yard. She entered with an air of pro-
prietorship, and Carleton promptly de-
cided that II was her home. He strode
away to the nearest drug store. and by

Barclay OF New York, and

Fifteen minutes later she found her
self cut IN the back yard again. Don's
eyes met her reproaehfully. He was
confined ignominiously In a chicken
coop.
Miss Barclay tried her best to think
It was all right Then she gave it up
He was such splendid dog after all
She took him from the coop and al

That evening Carleton picked up
the paper and read:

shy smile, hes almost as great a
diplomat as his master-save that he

which might possibly be missed by

along the river and came back at night
with some added grace from natures

Mrs Reiding kept the house She
had only q few guests. Her son Tom
protested against those, so far rs the
principle went. But when the practice
happened to include Thisbe Latch he
began to persuade himself that perhaps
it was better for his mother TO have
something that would interest her ana
keep her from being lonely, as she had
been since his fathers death. Miss
Latch was n scho0lteacher, but no one
would have detected it-at least by amy

Carlton Cross, another guest at the

to like him. Cross was spending few

It has been the belief among ranch.
men Of the western plains for a great
many years. that horses, cattle and
sheep were poisoned by eating a plant
commonly known as loco" or "crazy

duce a peculiar i~ntoxication Of these
animals and among other alleged
symptoms is one that animals &C
customed to feeding upon this plant
will not eat anything else.
Numerous attempts have been made
to investigate the matter scientifically
and careful analyses have been made
In chemical laboratories for the pur'
pose Of isolating the poison, but the
results have been contradictory and
far from conclusive.

with the loco disease are for a long
