Penrod's. whole manner changed instantly.
 'tRoddy.'' he asked, almost over whelmed by precedence of something fast and magnificent, +'Roddy. are you Any relation of Rena Magsworth ?''
 Roderick had never heard of Rena Msxgsworth, although a concentration of the sentence yesterday pronounced upon her had burned, black and hor- rife, upon the face of every newspa per in the country. He was not allowed to read the Journals Of the day, and his family's indigna ton over the sacrile- gious coincidence of the name had not been expressed in his presence. But he saw thatsi was an aWesome name U Penrod Scho6eld and Samuel Will Hams. Even Herman and Verman, though lacking many educational ad- vantages on account of a long resi- dence in the country, were informed on the subject of Rena Magsworth through hearsay, and they joined in the portentous silence
 "Roddy,' repeated Penrod, honest, is Rena Magsworth some relation of yours r
 There is no obsession more dangerous to it's victims than q conviction -espe- cially an inherited one-of superiority 1; this world is so full of Missourians. And from his earliest years Rodertck Magsworth Bitts, Jr., had been trained tot believe in the importance of the 1Iagsworth family. At every meal he absorbed sense of Magsworth great ness, and yet in his infrequent meet tngs with persons of his own age and i sex he Was treated as negligible. Now i dinly he perceived that there was g Gfagsworth claim of some sort which was impressive, even to the boys. Afagsworth blood was the essential of all true distinction fn the world, he knew. Consequently, : having been driven into cul-de-sac as a result of fagrant and unfounded boosting. he was ready to take advantage of what appeared to be triumphal way out. 5ss zsR oddy ''- said Penrod again, with solemnfty, t.is Rena Magsworth some | relation of yours ?,

Tn the first place was not planning to run away with Mrs. Hoppe. as stated. She asked me to buy her a ticket to a moving picture show. saying she had no money. I was not running away from Hoppe, either, but only to avoid arrest. The black eye on which the reporters commented was not received from the hands of Hoppe, but from an incident while splitting wood.

HE CAMP OF THE GREAT
 HEART TREES
By Dora Read GOOdaIe

Comes spring, with . tinkle of
 streams,
 With a ripple of song in my ears, And the fire of the sugar camp
 wrinkles and gleams
 From the mists of the vanished
 years. I'm back in my fathers camp, In cabin roofed over with bark; With the bullfrog's bassoon; with
 a sickle-bright moon;
 With the drip of the sap in the
 dark! Again from the dwindling snows The sun-coaxed rivulets creep, From burrow and and crack, with
 eyes bead-black,
 The sly wood creatures peep. h a welter of steam and smoke The great. black caldron rides, And higher and hiGher, red tongues
 of fire
 Go licking its gypsy sides. o the mad merry magic of March That makes one foolish and
 young! The wild winds mood steals into the blood,
 As the wild sweets tempts the
 tongue. Away with the wisdom of schools, When spring is astir in the breeze And it's oh, for the draft that childhood quaffed From the bountiful, great-heart
 trees! There's a ripple Of song in my
 ears,
 There's a tinkle of mountain streams, And light that shines through
 laughter and tears
 Is the light of the Land of Dreams. For I'm back at my fathers feet, In cabin roofed ever with bark With the bullfrog's bassoou; with
 a sickle-bright moon; With the drip of the sap in the dark -Youtk's Companion.
