1t was little over a week later that
the girl with the pearl eardrops
dropped in again to see the girl with
the coral dinner ring. My dear,
isn't it lovely that Tom is coming
back so soon?" she exclaimed by way
Of greeting
What do you mean?" asked the
other girl.
why, | had letter from him this
morning and he said he was coming
back to civilization as fast as the
train could carry him."
The girl with the coral dinner ring
looked amazed. But he was so
charmed with the life! What has hap
pened? In his last letter."
well, in his letter to me he says
he cannot imagine how he could have
been such a donkey He says he
wishes he had listened to my advice
instead of some other peoples"
But what has happened?' demand
ed the girl with the ring.
Everything replied the girl with
the earrings, comprehensively in an
exultant tone. Then she condescend-
ed to explain tom said the novelty
of 1T all kept up his enthusiasm for
the first week in spite of the fact that
he had become an animated bunch Of
polka dots from the mosquito bites.
The next week it started to gain. One
night there was such a storm that his
tent was torn up and he was nearly
drowned Well, it kept on raining for
the next two days and Tom couldn't
get dry twig to build fire. Every
thing he had was simply drenched.
His blankets and clothes were wet
and soggy and he felt dreadful cold
starting in his system. He couldn't
get his tent pitched again, for the
pole was broken, and of course he
couldn't cook anything He just sat
on box with his tent wrapped around
him and sneezed and coughed and
wished that the rain would stop"
why didn't heTtake his horse and
ride to the town. asked the girl with
the coral dinner ring.
1T kept on raining and raining, !
pursued the girl with the eardrops, re-
lentlessly, not needing the question.
THE crisis was reached when his
horse broke its grazing rope and got
away. Tom realized that he had to
get to the town somehow, so he walked
rs miles in the pouring rain! He said
something about rattlesnakes, too"
20 don't! Poor Tom! Where is he
nowY implored the girl with the
ring.
"EIe is on his way home by this
time. He wrote me from the town
hotel and he said he would start In 4
day or two If his stift joints would
permit him to do So"
"Iow awful!' murmured the girl
with the coral dinner ring.
