Today while they were carrying neI',
they met a fox He begged to carry

sweet chicks ne would gladly help them
The chicks we're a bit doubtful OF his
good intentions. Seeing them hesitate,
Nr Fox offered 20 get two Of his friends

they would wait.
Specifies said: That's a good idea
Just as soon as Mr.. Fox disappeared
into the wood TO look for his friends.
Buckles told his brother and sister to
run lust as fast as ever they could. and
they reached the school house just in
time, for Mr.. Fox and his two friends
were running after them. Their teacher
called SPECIFIES a brave chick for fooling
the foxes. who really wanted to eat
them.
After that. like all good children. they
we're careful not TO talk to strangers on

He disappeared down the after

great masses Of precious metal which
were stacked, according to his direc-
tons, in the strong-room.
His purpose In coming down here
was threefold. He meant to see that
the gold was slowed correctly, and he
meant to lock the room up, so hat its
precious contents would not be tam
pered with, and bring the key away
with him. He was not afraid that any
of his crew would try to steal it, but
he thought the moral effect of having
it locked away where it was inacces-
sible to them and of his keeping the
key In his own possession would be a
help in maintaining his prestige as
commander. They knew the sea better

above dispute. He did not want TO
have to kill any of them yet. The
Aurora would be short-handed enough
as ii was.
But there was one more reason for
that hurried trip to the strong-room.
He wanted to be sure that a certain
rosewood box had come aboard along
with the treasure and what few stores
they were taking away with them.
That little box had occupied much Of
his leisure since the day when he had
murdered the owner of 1t. He had
sometimes wished that when it came
nto his hands that day he had yielded
to his first impulse to shatter it, for
the thing had always Knocked him
coQuetted with him.
He had often seen it lying open on
Captain Fielding's table in the tiny
walled-off cubby hole of a room they
called the captains cabin, while the
captain himself was writing up his
journal or working upon his charts

quently thought of trying to open it
should the opportunity offer itself.
After the murder. when he ook that
little room for his W quarters, he
found the box and preserved it with
the idea that now. at least, he would
get the better of it. He new what its
contents were well enough-Captain
Fielding's charts and journal-and he
had no curiosity concerning them But
the secret mechanism of the box itself
tantalized him, and he meant some day
to solve il. Once he had done so he
would kick the thing to pieces and
destroy it's contents.

His interest now, however. in making
