I'm going to Atropia-this after
noon," l Dragged.
He let me pass, and / tramped up
the street until | found the one livery
stable. Here, again, my fool reputa-
ion had quite evidently Outrun me.
The man had idle horses, plenty Of
them, as 1 couldn't help seeing, but I
couldn't hire one for love or money.
When 1t came right down to the pinch,
he wouldn't even sell me one.
BY this time / was In a hot sweat
Of impotence to be on my way; to
bridge that twenty-One miles before
the elusive clue-if It were the clue
could once more dodge me and vanish
into thin air. In that frame Of mind !
told the cautious liveryman, In gentle
phrase, what / thought Of him and his
kind, and hurried down to the rail-
road, hoping to be able to catch an
east-bound train Of some kind, any
kind, whose crew could be bribed or
cajoled into carrying me to Atropia.
1t was just as / was about to inquire
of the telegraph operator what the
chances were that the great tempta-
ton rose up and slapped me In the
face. Up the grade from he westward
q tiny, three-wheeled car, carrying two
men,, came spinning along. l recog-
nized 1t at once as a track-inspection
car, driven by a small gasoline engine;
an evolution Of the old velOcipede car,
foot and hand-driven and used by road
masters and other railroad men for
making quick trips over short dis
tances.
In half a minute the little a rat
tied up to the station and made q
quick stop, the two men setting the
brakes and hopping off to dodge into
the telegraph office. They left the lit
tie p%op-popping engine running at
idling speed, and In a flash l saw my
chance. or course, II 1 should steal
the car, I'd be caught and arrested and
hauled off somewhere to be tried and
fined; but before any Of these unto
ward things could happen, l should
have settled that biting question Of
the ownership Of the piebald pony and
the harlequin-faced dog.
With a quick glance Owe my shout
der to make sure that the coast was
still clear, / slipped into the driving
seat, jerked the throttle open and re-
leased the clutch, praying fervently
that the switches might be set right
for me at the upper end Of the Angels
yard.
As the machine began to gather
speed, l looked back. What l saw was
a-plenty. Three men, one OF them,

son Is always the hardest. The peO-
pie haven't grown used to the heat
and they feel 1t most exceedingly,
which in other words, means that
they feel 1t a great deal.
Eyes, the people have felt very, very
hot today. They have gone about
mcpping their brows and have looked
so tired and so exhausted.

best so as to cheer them up q bit.
I've worn my best suit, my fine gol-
den suit and l do look almost orange
In color. I'm so golden you see that

That's a joke.

a ride and had seen me when she had
been riding down town and that when
she got up town I was up town too!
"She almost thought 1 had been
riding along too, but I'm shining so
thar the whole city can see me. Yes,
old Mr.. Moon Is shining his very best,
and is looking as bright as ever he
can look"
(which is very bright, Mr.. Moon,"
said the Star.

Mr.. Moon.

To be sure, to be sure" said Mr..
Moon. I'm not ashamed Of my face

Sometimes / don't wear this suit and
my shape Is different. But that
doesn't mean that l am ashamed Of
my face.
Goodness, gracious no, 1t doesn't
mean that. Such are my ways, that's
all.
"But when I can show my face as I
can this evening, l like to show 1t
very dearly SO people can look up at
me and can say,

SO hot that I couldn't seem to be able

people up at all.
II wouldn't want to look as though
my collar had wilted in the heat"
"What does wilted mean?' asked the
little Star.
II suppose you're too far away to
see what a wilted collar looks like"
said MI. Moon, but 1t is a very warm
looking thing-a wilted collar.
1T is like a wilted leaf which has
faded and shriveled up and which
looks quite wretched."
"B1t you never yea a collar. Mr..
Moon," said the Star.

orator, In his shirt-sleeves, came run

sh~irt-sleeved man was yelling and wav-
ing something that glistened in the
sunlight. Next / heard the distance
diminished crack Of a pistol and a
blunt-nOsed bullet sang a whining lit
tie lullaby to me as it tore past.

small car swung around the shoulder
