I in the history of man, and the solver
couldn't be blamed for feeling warm
glow stealing over him.
Mr.. Bowser had taken the boys into
consideration when he sought his back
yard, but not sufficiently. He hadn't
figured on the fact that when a boy
sees light bobbing around in the
heavens he is bound to find out whether
Mars has broken loose from it's wharf
or some one has sent up a lantern. His
kite was not yet 200 feet high when 20
pairs of sharp eyes were watching that
lantern and wondering where the string
led to. In ten minutes they had located
it and were running down the alley and
taking seats on top the fence and call
ing to each other:
Say, now, it's Mister Bowser, and
he's got hold of a great idea!''
The first corners were offered ten cents
ariece to vanish. but they Indignantly
refused. If there was anything in the
shape of a menagerie coming down
from the upper strata they wanted to
be there to see. 1t was Inevitable that
a policeman should get on to the boys
soon after they had got on to Mr.. Bow
ser. He followed the crowd down the
alley, and men and women followed
him. 1t was reported that another
''crime wave" had set in, and they
wanted to help hang somebody. Mr..
BowSer was seen sitting on the shed
and holding the string of the kite. Just
as he felt a nibble from some creature
of the clouds the cop climbed the fence
and called out:
"See, here, old man, what's all this
about?''
In the interest of science" was the
reply.
I'm the interest of bosh! You get that
kite down at once. Can't you see that
you are drawing a crowd and disturb
ing the peace? Therell be thousand
people here in no time
'I am on my own land, SIR" protested
Mr.. Bowser.
THAT makes no difference. You eth
err bring that kite down or I'll bring
you'll
Mr. Bowser rose up to protest anew
and in more vigorous language, and in
his excitement he slipped and went fall
ing from the roof upon the grass. There
was an awful yell from hundred
threats. The kite began to fall, and
everybody rushed for the string. They
ran over the PROSTATE man: they broke
down fences; they snapped clothes
lines A minute later the yard was
cleared as the crowd ran up the alley
to catch the falling kite. Then the
dazed and trampled Mr.. Bowser sat up
to hear some one saying:
poor man! He will never try 1t
again, and shall never have a two
bumped insect and call him Willie!'-

There is hardly a doubt that he
would have been a goner if he hadn't
made the greatest effort in the world
to hang on to himself, and if he hadn't
determined on killing Mrs. Bowser in
her bed after he had made his ex-
periments a bowling success. He
glared at her and glared and glared
but he didn't say another word. Her
doom was sealed.
Out in the vestibule as he came in
he had left a large box kite and a
small lantern and a ball of stout
Irvine. He now went out and got the
lantern and lighted it. Mrs. Bowser
wanted to ask more questions. She
wanted to ask if he didn't think that
the smell of fried bacon would bring
most of the inhabitants of those upper
strata down to earth long enough to
be lassoed, but a look into his face
kept her lips closed. He had become
dangerous. One more word from her
would have sent him off like Dupont
powder magazine.
In five minutes she saw what he
was at He was going to send up a
kite with a lantern attached to at
tract the insects up there. He was
going to do more. On one side of the
kite he pinned a sheet of sticky fly
paper so as to catch and detain any
wandering inhabitant. The fnhabi-
the kite up.
Mr.. Bowser didn't propose to have
his experiments perilled by the pres
ence of a crowd. He went into his
own back yard to send that kite soar
ing aloft. There was a good breeze
for kite flying. and after galloping up
and down the yard a few times and
making a few failures away she went
towards the clouds, and then with the
aid of the step-ladder he climbed to
the roof of the shed and sat down to
let the hy-paper do its scientific work.
The secrets of the upper strata were
about to be solved for the first time

that there might be insects in the

might feed him once in awhile your
