hung over the red cushions, her red
lips slightly open, and long lashes
sweeping her rose tinted cheeks. Ken

admiringly at her. heard the galloping

There stood Jeffrey and Old Gaspar
talking to stranger on horseback.
The room was too high up for Kenneth
TO hear what they said, so he shut the
window. threw a scarf over the sleep
ing child. and ran hurriedly down the
dark, wide staircase. Turning to the
left. he pushed open door, and ran
down short hall AT the end was
another door which he opened. and
slipping out found himself in a hedged
walk near that in which the three men
were. Instinct told him not to warn
them OF his presence. as he made his
way over the grass. He had scarcely
gained the cover OF the shrubbery
when another man rode into view
Kenneth could now hear and see plain

unusual color out Of his face.

A TALL TALE.

A gentleman was once given n large
dog to take care Of by a friend who
was going abroad, but the dog an
noyed him by always sitting In his
best armchair One day an idea struck
him. He came into the room and found
the dog in his usual seat. so he walked
up TO the window and called: Cats.
cats Up jumped the dog and rushed
10 the window, while the man went
and sat in the chair. few days later
the dog walked into the room while
his master was sitting In his chair.
Going up to the window he barked
loudly. The man got up to see what
was the matter, and the dog rushed
and secured the chair.
