mo, sir!'
And just then Davie heard Dor
othy's voice family calling. "Dav-
zee! Dav-e ee!" He looked up and
she beckoned, and in another min
ute, all smiles, he was racing over
the yielding sand as fast as his
sturdy legs would take him.
When he drew near Davie looked
sheepishly at Uncle Dick, who just
smiled as If he didn't even remem-
Der that Davie had been cross.
Come on, old scout" said Uncle
Dick. This is going to be a real
walk. We're going all the way to
the inlet. Show Davie your shell,
Dorothy"
From her sweater pocket Dorothy
produced a pink, shiny shell, which
was really two shells Joined to-
gether. back to back, and evenly as
if some clever hand had carefully
placed them so.
Davie eyed the shells with interest,
What are you going to do with
them?" he wanted to know.
"Oh, I don't knoww
Give 'em to me?'
"What'll you do with them
Something"
We'll, what?"
Something, | said"
Dorothy placed the shells back in
her pocket.
I'm going TO take them home to
mother, and she can put them on
the table for everybody to see,
cause they're so pretty" she de-
clared. Lets look for more.
And all that day she and DAVE
looked and looked for another twin
shell, but not one did they find.
When they reached the inlet the
tide had changed and the waves
were coming in in big, wild swirls,
not at all like the combers that
dashed on the beach in front of the
bathing paVilions.
Uncle Dick told the children that
this was because Of the undercur-
rents.
Some run this way and some run
that way" he declared. making wide
circles with his right arm, land they
keep the poor old waves stirred up
so that they haven't an idea which
way to CO.
poor old waves!" echoed Dorothy.
81 think they're pretty wicked
waves: always upsetting boats and
drowning people"
THAT isn't the waves fault.
People ought to know enough to
keep away from an inlet, no matter
how calm it looks" declared Uncle
Dick gravely.

OMELET IS MORE THAN CONCOCTION
OF EGGS, BUTTER, PEPPER AND SALT
A Perfect One
Is a Poem

twelve beats to three eggs. Add half
a teaspoonful of salt, dash of pepper
and half teaspoonful of butter,
broken into small bits. A teaspoonfu;
of milk may be added if desired. Have
the pan hot, but not scorching. let
the butter run evenly over the pan,
but not brown. Turn in the eggs,
Break the cooked surface of the eggs
quicSly-with a knife or fork, so that
the egg from the top may run to the
bottom, and cook or draw the egg
from the sides of the pan, letting the
cooked part run under. This must be
done quickly so that the surface will
not be uneven. In shape it should be
high at the centre and pointed at the
ends. While cooking few drops of
vinegar in the edge of the pan, letting
it run around the omelet, gives
touch of delicious tenderness. When
the omelet Is cooked and the top
still soft, tilt the pan, slip knife un-
der the edge and carefully roll the
omelet to the centre. Let 1t cook
long enough to firm any part that
may run out. If the color is not right
add little butter and let it run un-
der and slightly color the omelet.
Garnish with parsley, or place in the
centre chopped parsley, cheese. fruit
Jelly or meat. Serve at once upon a
heated platter.

Uncle Dick and nurse Nellie and
Dorothy walked slowly along the
beach. =
Gloomily, Davie watched them,
and wished he hadn't been so cross.
II don't care" he said to himself,
sticking out his lower lip and draw
ing his knees up close to his chin,
Jpn turn my back SO they won't
even see me looking at Them
But pretty soon Davie peeped
slyly over his shoulder, and was
quite dismayed to find that uncle
Dick and nurse Nellie and Dorothy
weren't noticing him at all.
Uncle Dick was throwing a stick
in the surf and Laddie dog
was dashing madly after it, while
Dorothy and nurse Nellie watched.
do it again! DO it again!"
cried Dorothy, as Laddie, all drip
ping and excited, laid the stick at
uncle Dicks feet and then waited,
tail wagging, for the fun to begin
again.
What do care?" muttered
Davie, But this time he didn't look
so cross. His lower lip was tucked
in where it belonged and his eyes
were wistful.
water and Laddie brought it back
and then they all moved up the
beach. DaVie, peeping over his
shoulder, saw Dorothy pick up
something and run to show il to
nurse Nellie, who passed il to uncle
Dick
Davie wondered what it was.
Its a shell, | guess" he said,
BY this time Davie wanted very
much to run after the others. He
had grown cross and pouty because
uncle Dick had laughed when he
had wanted to take home a big
piece of seaweed which was COW
cred with tiny shellfish.
'lf you had answered when they
talked to you stead o. kicking the
sand, you wouldn't be sitting here
all alone,' said little voice inside
of him.
Davie wriggled He knew that
what the little voice said was true,
but didn't like to listen.
"Why don't you run after them?
They're having lots of fun. and
after tomorrow you won't sec the
ocean for long long time" the
voice went on.
"'Cause they don't want me"
scowled Davie.
You're silly" declared the voice.
II am not" cried Davie, kicking
the sand with his heels.
You'd better hurry" whispered
the voice.
