They whispered softly going through
the upper hall

was Prudence at the bottom OF the
stairs. And the twins set OF quite hur-

Then they went upstairs, but not 10

slipped nolsclessly into the front bed

into the hall and stood listening at the
head OF the stairs, as though on guard.
"Be sure and leave quite few
stitches in, Lark" she whispered once.
I'VE want II TO hang together until

That was all. Presently Lark
emerged. and their own door closed
behind them.

CHAPTER lV.-Contirued.

That was the end Of supper. No
After the older girls had gone into the
sitting roem, Carol and Lark went
about their work with stricken faces.
They asked if they might speak to
Constance, but Prudence went In with
them TO say good night 10 her. The
twins broke down and cried as they
saw the pitiful little figure with the
wan and tear-stained face. They threw
their arms around her passiOnately
and kissed her many times. But they
went TO bed without saying anything.
1t was sorry night for the twins.
The next morning they set off to
school, with no chance for anything
but brief good morning with Connie
given in the presence Of Prudence.
Halfway down the parsonage walk,
Carol said:
"Oh. wait n minute, Lark. / left my
notebook on the table" And Lark
walked slowly while Carol went rush
ing back. She found Prudence in the
kitchen, and whispered:
"Here-heres note, Prudence.
Don't read it until after I've gone to
school-at ten o'clock you may read it.
VIII you promise?"
Prudence laughed a little, but she
promised, and laid the note carefully
away to wait the appointed hour for
It's perusal. AS the clock struck ten
she went to the mantle and took it
down. This is what Carol had writ
ten:
Oh. Prudence do please forgive me. and
don't punish Connie any more. You can
punish me any way you like, and I'll be
glad OF II. II was all my fault. / made
her go and get the apples for me. and
ate them. Connie didn't eat one OF them.
She said stolen apples would not taste
very good. 1t was all my fault AID I'm
30 sorry
AS Prudence read this her face grew
very stern. Carols fault! AT that
moment Prudence heard someone run
ming through the hall, and thrust the
note hastily into her dress. 1t was
Lark, and she flung herself wildly up
on Prudence, sobbing bitterly.
"What is the matter LarkT she
cried. really frightened. Are you

"Heartsick, that's OIL" walled Lark.

She drew the note from her pocket
and gave IL to Lark. "Carol gave me

explained. read 1t, and tell me what
you are driving at. think you are

Not that the statewide pro bibition act is in any way violated, for the cider has not begun to age, and the kick is noticeably absesnt. There is manufactured in Little Rock cider that is all the juice of the apple. Members of House and Senate have started fad of cider drinking, and all hands chip in and buy it in ten gallon lots.
