Chapter xlI
 Marcia had her chauffeur-at last. A piece of unexpected good luck had brought John a windfan in the shape of some extra money, which Marcia at once appropriated.
 You see. old dear, it is just as I have always told you. Things come your way if you try to make them.''
 "Yes,' absently
 T have hired that man I told you of, and"
 If he is any good I am surprised that he has been out of job for 90 long"
 "Of course had to pay him some thing so that he wouldn't take any thing permanent, but not much"
 You mean you have been paying that fellow all this timee"
 T did it out of my allowance, so you needn't take that tone with me. And I would never find another chauffeur with such good references. Five years with one family. Then he is so good looking, not big. but tall and slender, I hate fat chauf- feur in a sedan"
 John laughed in spite of his annoy ance.
 Be careful. Marcia; he sounds | dangerous.
 l Why Johni would no more ! think of looking at another man, no 1 matter who he was, than you would l think of looking at another woman. l But one likes nice looking people around. I shall get his outfit right away so that he can drive me to the l club Friday. I'll stop and get Claire Sanders. I guess when she secs him 1 she won't have so much to say about well turned out car" John made no answer and Marcia, aggrieved. went on:
 T never saw such a man. Nothing seems to interest you but that old office. I believe you would rather bend over the old desk than do any thing else in the world You need a change; something to stir you up a little. That is one trouble with you John. You get too little recreation I hate your work at times"
 She spoke with tone of regret in her voice, as if she were being robbed by his devotion to his desk.
 'Do you suppose I work day and night for the fun of the thing, Mar eia2 We need every penny I make : and more too, to live as we do. Wher you are satisfied to change youl mode ef living, do with less, perhar, shant have to bend over a desk ss many hours. and perhaps l could h' more of a companion. because would not he so tired"

 By and by it got so that he could not wait, but would silly peep out of his little round doorway to see what had been brought for him. Then one day Farmer Browns boy didn't come at all Chatterer tried to make himself believe that he was glad. He told himself that he hated Farmer Browns boy, and he hoped that he never, never would see him again. But Nl the time he knew that 1t wasn't true. It was the longest day since Chatterer had been prisoner. Early the next morning before Chat terer was out of bed, he heard a sten in the woodshed, and before he thought what he was doing he was cut of his hollow stump to see if ii really was armer Browns boy. It was and he had three great fat nuts which he dropped into Chatterer's cage. It seemed to Chatterer that he just couldn't wait for Farmer Brown's boy to go away He darted forward and seized one. Then he seampered to the shelter of his hollow stump to eat it. When it was finished he just had to have ano her. Farmer Browns boy was still watching, but somehow Chatterer didn't feel so much afraid. This time he sat up on one of the little branches of the stump and ate it in plain sight. Farmer Browns boy smiled, and if was a pleasant smile q believe we shall be friends after all" said he.

would be putting in mildly indeed.
Without a doubt it was n of the
finest social affairs the club has ever
held.
During the evening party lines and
all other differences of opinion were
forgotten and everyone enjoyed
himself to the limit. 1t was n of
those occasions when joy ruled SUI
preme and everybody had a good
time. The main features of the
evening was the entertainment
which was furnished by out of town
talent. The management of the
club is to be congratulated on the
high class of entertainment obtained
for the occasion.
Those appearing on the program
were: Roy King, piano and singing;
Harry Hayden, novelty act; Frank
| Sherman ,monologuist; John Nc
