ut sounded ike it. what was tne
matterT
Both boys returned her curious
glance with meekness. They were SUM-
moning their faculties-whica were
needed. Indeed, these are the crises
which prepare boy for the business
difficulties of his later life Penrod,
with the huge weapon beneath his
jacket, insecurity supported by an ell
bow and by waistband which he in
stantly began to distrust, experienced
distressful sensations similar to those
of the owner of too heavily insured
property carrying gasoline can under
his overcoat and detained for CONVEX
sation by a policeman. And If in the
coming years, it was to be Periods lot
to find himself in that precise situa-
ton, no doubt he would be the better
prepared for 1t on account of this pres
ent afternoons experience under the
scalding eye Of Mrs. Williams. 1t
should be added that Mrs. Williams
eye was awful TO the asination only.
1t was a gentle eye and but mildly
curious, having no remote suspicion
of the dreadful truth, for Sam had
backed upon the chest of drawers and
closed the damnatory open one with
the calves of his legs.
Sam, not bearing the fatal evidence
upon his person, was in better state
than PenrOd, though when boys fall
into the stiffness now assumed by
these two, it should be understood that
they are suffering. PenrOd, in fact,
was the prey to apprehension so keen
that the actual pit Of his stomach was
cold.
Being the actual custodian Of the
crime, he understood that his case was
several degrees more serious than that
of Sam, who, in the event of detection,
would be convicted as only an aces
sorry. 1t was q lesson, and Penrod al
ready repented his selfshness in not
allowing Sam to show how he did, first.
you're sure you weren't quarrel
ing, Sam?" said Mrs. Williams.
mo, ma'am; we were just talking.
'Tm glad you weren't quarreling,"
said Mrs. Williams, treasured by this
reply, which though somewhat baf-
fling, was thoroughly familiar to her
ear. snow, if you'll come downstairs,
I'll give you each one cookie and no
more, so your appetites won't be spoil
ed for your dinners"
She stood, evidently expecting them
to precede her. To linger might renew
vague suspicion, causing 1t to become

Mr.. WaIIiams murmured sympafhetI-
cally: "That's too bad! Where did
he bite your"
"On the-right on TIE elbow"
"Good gracious Perhaps you ought
to have it cauterized."
"Sir?"
"Did you have a doctor look at itT'
"No, sir. My mother put some stuff
from the drug store on It,"
ooh, / see. Probably it's all right,
then"
Eyes, sir" Penrod drew breath more
freely, and accepted the warm cookie
Mrs. Williams brought him. He ate
it without relish.
"Was 1t your own dog that bit you?
Mr.. Williams inquired.
"Sir? No, sir. 1t wasn't Duke"
"Penrod!" Mrs. Williams exclaimed.
when did it happen?"
81 don't remember just when" ne
answered feebly. 81 guess it was day
before yesterday"
Gracious How did it"
She was interrupted by the entrance
of a middle-aged colored woman. "Miz
Williams" she began, and then, as she
caught sight of Penrod, she addressed
him directly, "You' ma telefoam If you
here, send you home right away, cause
they waitin' dinner on you"
"Run along, then" said Mrs. Will
Iiams, patting the visitor lightly upon
his shoulder; and she accompanied him
to the front door. "Tell your mother
I'm so sorry about your getting bitten,
and you must take good care OF IT.,
Penrod."
"Yes'm."
Penrod fingered helplessly outside
the doorway, looking at Sam. who
stood partially obscured in the hall,
behind Mrs. Williams, Periods eyes,
with a yelled anguish, conveyed a
pleading for help as well as a horror
of the position in which he found him
self. Sam, however, pale and deter
mined, seemed to have assumed a
stony attitude of detachment, as If 1t
were we'll understood between them
that his own comparative innocence
was established, and that whatever
catastrophe ensued, Penrod had
brought it on and must bear the brunt
of 1T alone.
swell, you'd better run along, since
they're waiting for you at home" said
Mrs. Williams, closing the door. "Good
night, PenrOd."
:. Ten minutes later PenrOd took
his place at his own dinner-table, some

more definite; and boys preserve them
selves from moment to moment, not Of
ten attempting to secure the future.
Consequently, the apprehensive Sam
and the unfortunate PenrOd with the
mOnstrouS implement bulking against
his ribs) walked out of the room ana
down the stairs, their cOuntenanceS In
dicating an interior condition OF SOL
emnity. And a curious shade of be-
havior might have here interested a
criminologist Penrod endeavOred to
keep as close to Sam as possible, like
lonely person seeking company,
while, on the other hand, Sam kept
moving away from PenrOd, seeming to
desire an appearance of alOOfness.
$50 into the library, boys" said Mrs.
Williams, as the three reached the foot
of the stairs. "Fll bring you your
cookies. Papa's in there"
Under her eye the two entered the
library, to find Mr.. Williams reading
his evening paper. He looked up pleas
antly, but it seemed to Penrod that he
had an ominous and penetrating ex-
preston.
"What have you been up to, you
boys?" inquired this enemy.
Nothing" said Sam. Different
things"
"What HkeT
"Oh-just different things"
Mr.. Williams nodded; then his
glance rested casually upon Penrod.
whats the matter with your arm,
Penrod?"
Penrod became paler, and Sam with
drew from him almost conspicuously.
"Sir?"
81 said, What's the matter with your
arm?"
(Which one?' Penrod quavered.
"Your left. You seem to be holding
it in an unnatural position. Have you
hurt it?"
Penrod swallowed. Eyes. sir. A boy

what breathless but with an expression
of perfect composure.
"Can't you ever come home without
being telephoned for?" demanded his
father.
Eyes. sir" And Penrod added re-
proachfully, placing the blame upon
members of Mr.. Schotield's own class,
"Sams mother and father kept me, or
I'd been home long ago. They would
keep on talkin', and l guess l had to
be polite, didn't IT,
His left arm was as free as his right |;
there was no dreadful bulk beneath
his Jacket, and at Penrod's age the fu-
ture is too far away to be worried
about. The difference between tempo
rary security and permanent security
is left for grown people. To Penrod,
security was security, and before his
dinner was half eaten his spirit had
become fairly serene.
Nevertheless, when he entered the
empty carriage-house of the stable, on
his return from school the next after
noon, his expression was not altogether
without apprehension, and he stood in
the doorway looking well about him
before ne lifted a loosened plank in
the flooring and took from beneath 1t
the grand old weapon of the Williams
family. Nor did his eye tighten with
any pleasurable excitement as he sat
himself down in a shadOwy corner and
began some sketchy experiments with
the mechanism. The allure of first
sight was gone. In Mr.. Williams bed
chamber, with Sam clamoring for pos
session, it had seemed to Penrod that
nothing in the world was so desirable
as to have that revolver in his own
hands-it was his dream come true.
But. for reasons not definitely known
TO him. the charm had departed; he
turned the cylinder gingerly, almost
with distaste; and slowly there stole
over him a feeling that there was

TRICK IN SALE. WOMAN SAYS.
Fights TO Set Aside Foreclosure OF
Mortgage.

On petition of Mrs Lillian Marion
Sims. wife Of DR.. Harry Marion-Sims
of SIS West End avenue, an order was
signed in Newark yesterday by Vice
Chancellor Lane directing Edmund J.
Parker and Andrew ]. Stokes a lawyer.
of Freehold. to answer an order az 10
the reason for not setting aside a fore
closure sale OF Mrs. Msrion-Sims's sum-
mer home ~ Spring Lake.
The plaintiff alleges trckery and
fraud in the sale. which was made sew
eral months age. The property is val
ued at $4,000. Mrs Marion Sims said
that in March, 1912, she borrowed $4,000
at per cent on the property on a
mortgage given TO Archer Ely. Ely died
two years ago and the mortgage was
assigned TO Parker. his executor.
Last fall, it is alleged. Parker threat
ened 10 recall the loan. as he had an
opportunity TO place 1t at per cent
instead of ). Mrs Marion Sims was III
and sent her son Victor 10 ask that the
loan be carried on for another year at
the former rate, and, according to the
affidavit, Parker promised to do So The
