were to surround the American troops
and take them by surprise.
The party broke up and went off to
bed. But Prue was too much troubled
to go to sleep. Mother, she said. 81
was back in the corner and heard the
plot to attack the Revolutionary forces
at dawn. l mean to warn General
Washington"
Prue raced to the stable and saddled
a colt which she had raised. Starlight
was fleet Of foot. and as soon as the girl
was on his back, set out down the road
at swift run. Past fields of corn and
through the forest she sped. over the
streams and down the long sweep of
the meadows. The moon struggled
through cloudy sky, the night wind
sang in her ears, the shadows danced
along as the horse and rider swept over
hill and dale. Then the chill made her
cold as the colt raced onward But
presently she saw lights glimmering in
the distance. and as the horse slackened
its pace, a soldier in the uniform of the
American army stepped out Of the
bushes and laid his hand on her reins.
II must see General Washington at
once" Prue painted. "It is a matter
of life and death"
The sentry led her TO the generals
tent. There she told him of what she
had heard Washington sent for his Of
ficers, acquainted them with the news
and told them to have the army in
readiness to meet the enemy at dawn
The bugles sang out the call to arms.
ha To tIat,-
the soldiers were prepared to meet the
attack.
Washington returned to his tent and
found the little maid had curled upon a
cot and was sound asleep. Il will not
disturb her." he said. as he went into
another tent to await the dawn. AS
soon as the light began to break there
came the sound of marching men. and
out of the bushes broke the ranks of the
redcoats. But they were met by the
fire of the Americans. Surprised to find
their foe on the watch, the British fled
in disorder, leaving the Revolutionary
troops in possession of the field. The
firing awoke Pruc. But when Washing
ton came into the tent and told her the
enemy had been routed, and that the
victory was due to her warning, she felt
very happy.
Here is a little keepsake by which
you can remember how you saved the
American Army" said the general, plac-
ing in her hands a small miniature of
himself in a golden frame. Then after
breakfast he sent Prue home with a fine
escort of soldiers. The miniature the
girl kept. and It has been preserved in
her family till at this very day one can
see It hanging on the wall of a certain
old home in Philadelphia.

No review of Peg o. My Heart

to Michael. the Irish spaniel. and the

parts In the comedy, nor to the really
excellent stage setting given the COM

piece Mr.. Morosco has established
which is costly without be-
