a fatal accident.

"Now you must start" said Mrs.
Wood Elf to the boy and the girl who
were going forth for adventures. They
had heard the story Mrs. Get-the Most
Out-of-Life had told them of how she
was named and how she lived up to
the meaning of all the words in her
name. .
II packed up q delicious luncheon
and supper for you," said Mrs. Wood
Elf. "And there is also enough for
breakfast and luncheon tomorrow.
Here! I will put it in your knapsack.
"And you needn't stay to help wash
up the dishes (they hadn't really said
anything about dishes, but they were
glad that, as the subject had been men,
toned, they wouldn't have to stop
around any longer) for the old giant
who said you would be starting early
this morning would be surprised IL he
saw you still around"
"YOu were going to take us to the
end Of the wood, weren't your" asked
the boy 1--WE wouldn't be able to find
our way back to the road before night
fall, and, while we'd love to spend the
night here again, we really must be on
our way"

"That's right" said Mrs. Wood Elf.

Really Quite Glad.

"You haven't forgotten your manners.
That was a most polite speech" She
laughed and continued:
1--WE like manners even in the
woods. We're used to it. You would
be surprised, I've no doubt, to see how
polite even the birds are to each other.
"Now," she said, Il will take you out
of the woods. I will lead you to the
road"
'I'n do the Dishes" said Mrs. Get
the Most Out-of-Life.
II should think you could get some
thing more interesting out Of life than
that" said the girl.
"Well, perhaps could, and, In fact,
I'm sure l could" said Mrs. Get-the-
Most Out -of-Life. "But my mother,
whose name was Take Your Time, told
me once that it was nice sometimes to
thank folks for their hospitality in
other ways besides the use of words.
"And Mrs. Wood Elf will be late in
getting home and will doubtless then
be tired. I'm really quite glad to do
the dishes under such circumstances.
"Good-by! Good luck -
"Good-by," they shouted as they
went through the woods with Mrs.
Wood Elf.
1--WE would never find the way our
Selves" said the boy.
"I'm sure we wouldn't" said the
girl.
Lets rum" said the boy. So they
ran in and out of the trees and some
times Mrs. Wood Elf ran with them,
but she said she wasn't so fond Of
running as they were. She promised,
though, to be on the same path, walk
ing straight ahead so they could al
ways come back and find her.
"I'm so glad we came adventuring,"
said the boy.
"I'll be glad to see the House Of
Secrets. love secrets" said the girl,
land to think that we'll have secrets
filing up whole housed"
''Oh, it's fine to have some place
worth seeing at the end of the trip"
said the boy. "And a long journey
with many adventures will make it all
the more interesting"
"But you're going the wrong way"
said some voices.
mo, you're going the right way"
said some other voices.
"Nonsense," said the first voices,
"you're going the wrong way. We
know"
''They don't know" said the other
voices. "You're going the right way"
II think we must be going the right
way" said the boy. "We'1l run back
to Mrs. Wood Elf and find out. How
fine these adventures are.
II love adventures and adventures
Such a Journey! Such excitement. It's
wonderful"
Lets hear more Of what the voices
have to say" suggested the boy. =
"All right" the girl agreed.
So they didn't go back, just then, to
Mrs. Wood Elf, but they stayed and
talked with the voices, though they
couldn't see who owned the voices at
all. Such was the excitement though
of adventuring!

mony of the skeleton Of his step
father. Chang Kang-sz is at the ar
senal here today awaiting execution
by a firing squad. The mans trial
involved the revival Of an ancient
superstition that led to his confess
sion OF guilt.
It has long been the belief OF the
Chinese that the body OF a person
who has been poisoned will not de-
compose after burial. Also that
when the flesh has been removed and
the skeleton OF a poison victim is
boiled the bones will show a dis
coloration indicating the manner OF
death.
Chang was accused OF poisoning
his step-father thirteen months ago.
He denied the charge and the au-
thorities ordered the body exhumed.
After thirteen months buried the
body was in a state Of perfect preser-
vation. Chinese sages were called
into consultation. the skeleton was
removed from the flesh and boiled. II
turned a blush black.
The skeleton was carefully ar
ranged in normal position and Chang
was called in 10 view II. When he
saw the color Of the bones he broke
down and confessed.
While Chang was being led TO the
arsenal the bones OF his father, care
fully arranged as in life. were placed
in a coffin and returned to their

that is why counsel for the State
and for the accused woman watch
keenly the faces OF the jurors as
the brutal story is unfolded.
That is why. occasionally. there

the most gruesome details Of the
crime are being related from the
witness stand.
