By VIM. ]. Burns and Isabel Ostrander

The erect, gray-haired, cIear-eyed
man had come and gone about his
business, without the slightest attempt
at conceaIment. A few of the simplest
inquiries of his land-lady had elected
the fact that the gentleman opposite,
old Mr.. Brunell, was map-maker, and
worked at his trade in little shop in
the nearest row of brick buildings
just around the corner-that he had
lived in the little cottage since it had
first been erected, six years before,
alone with his daughter Emily, and
before that, they had for many years
occupied a small apartment near by
in fact, the girl had grown up in that
neighborhood. He was a quiet man,
not very laxative, but we'll liked by
his neighbors, and his daughter was
devoted to him. According to Mrs.
Quinlan, Guy Morrow's aforesaid land
lady, Emily Brunell was a dear, sweet
girl, very popular among the young
people in the neighborhood, but she
kept strictly at home in her leisure
hours and preferred her fathers COM
partnership to that of anyone else. She
was employed in some business capac-
ity. downtown, from nine until six;
just what it was Mrs. Quinlan did not
know.
Morrow kept we'll in the back
ground, in case Mr.. Pennold should
put in an appearance again, but he did
rot. Evidently that conversation over
heard by Suraci had been a final one,
concerning the securities at least, and
no one else called at the little cottage
door over the way, except a Vapid-
faced young man to whom Morrow
took an instant and inexplicable dis
like
Morrow made it point to visit and
investigate the little shop at an hour
when he knew Brunell would not be
there, and found in the cursory exami-
nation possible at that time that it's

Billy promised and the boy rode
away. All that afternoon he worked
to get in the hay, and by supper the
field was clear, the barn almost burst

tired lad sat eating his bread and
milk.

half mile away was the village in

face in all its gentle. trusting purity,
every manly instinct in him revolted
at the thought of making her a tool of
her fathers probable downfall
There was a third member of the
Brunel household whom Morrow had
observed frequently seated upon the
doorstep, or on one of the lower win
dow sills-a small, scraggly black kit

absurdly belligerent attitude whenever
a dog CHANGED to pass through the
lane. 1t waited in the doorway each
night for the return of its mistress,
and in the soft glow of the lamplight
which streamed from within, he had
seen her catch the little creature up
affectionately and cuddle it up against
her neck before the door closed upon

Billy was tired and warm. He had

found that he was beginning to nod
Sitting down in a corner to rest, he
did not know that his head fell for
ward on his breast and he slept.
But presently a rough hand shook
him and he felt a rope being placed
around his body.
What is the natter" he ex-
claimed, in anger, starting to his feet.
Nothing, sonny" laughed a man
with red uniform on. 81 am a Brit
ish trooper. I was scouting through
here and saw you climb up here l
know you are on the watch and mean
to sound a warning if my men come

The soldier took the rope and
tightly bound the boys legs. Then he
wound it around his arms and body,
SO that he could not move at all.
Il will lean you up against this
post" he said, 80 in the morning you
can call to your friends to release you,
but for tonight you are safe"
In another moment the trooper had
clattered noisily down the steps and
| vanished. Wild with anger, Billy
fought and struggled. but all he could
do was to get his right hand free. But
| he could not reach the knot which
| tied the cord. Just then he caught
sight of a mouse-and an idea came
| into his head. That mouse could free
| him In his pocket was bit Of fat
! from the lunch he had brought. He
would rub that on the thin cord and
the mouse would nibble it in two. He
glanced down the moonlit road. Far
off, about five miles away, he could
see the light flashing on the guns that
marching company bore on their
shoulders. - ~ ~ +y.s-@
"The British-they are coming; IL I
could only reach the bell!' he said to
himself. There was not moment to
lose With his right hand he rubbed
the greasy meat on the cord at his
| waist Then he stood perfectly still.
| The mouse smelt it, ran about in
search Of the meat and finally crept
up the boys leg. 1t halted at the
greasy part of the rope and began to
cut into it with it's tiny teeth Billy
stood almost without breathing. His
eyes we're fixed first on the line of
marching men he saw creeping to-
ward him, then on the tiny mouse
nibbling away at the cord. Cut, cut,
cut" went the wee teeth. Tramp,
tramp, tramp" came on the night air.
At last the cord was almost cut in two.
Here goes!" exclaimed Billy, as
with a burst of strength he broke the
cord at the spot where the mouse had
weakened it. Then, Selling the bell
rope with both hands, he sent big
boom, boom, BOOM" over the moon
lit fields and meadows to alarm all
the countryside. In another moment
the village was in an uproar, the notes
of bugle sang out on the air and the
men rushed to arms. So when the
enemy arrived they found big force
ready to meet them-a force SO big
they dared not fight.
So that is how a tiny mouse saved
the town After the war was over
Billy was made Governor of the State
and over his desk always hung the
cord with which he had been bound
on that eventful night.
