 Not unless he's really ill, some t1ling which I do not anticipate at all,'' returned. iSo 1t really would be absurd for you to exchange a comfort able bed like the one in that farm house for this narrow couch Besides, I have a special reason for wishing you to get a good sleep tonight. l want you over here ready to take care of Junior at seven tomorrow morn lng.''
 What an unearthly hour!" Dicky Eroaned I do not know of any one who hates early rising as sincerely as does my husband. Even his anxiety for Junior, his zeal to serve him, was not proof against this prejudice. "Oh' " with sudden contrition. Do you ex- pect to be kept awake all night?"

 Indeed, mo- I returned. You know if I keep my hand lying on his little body he won't make single movement that won't awaken me. expect to sleep the night through"
 I spoke only the truth. It was 8 feat born of instinct and long prac- tice, trick known to every mother.
 '"Then why the awful rush?" asked Dicky, dolefully.
 Because I have to meet Robert Sa varia with the car at Southampton to morrow morning a nine" I said quiet 1y my sense of the dramatic making me enjoy his stark surprise at my announcement.
 ''When!" he whstled softly. "So that's the lay of the land, is it? suppose Marion asked for him.
 Demanded him. I returned. And Gillian could refuse her nothing. Al that, I imagine-''
 Lillian was secretly glad to ac- Uuiesce, and that pronto." he inter rupted. Sure thing! I wonder ! this will mean"
 His voice trailed off into silence and he took a cigar from his case anC bit the end savagely for few sec onds, a sure sign that he was per- turbed.
 Dye know" he said at last, "l can't help thinking of old Harry. IT be blessed if I can. When think ot the good times we four used to have together it makes me fairly sick the way things have turned out. Ot course, he's been blackguard to Lil- and she doesn't owe him a single ko- peck's worth of loyalty, but still"
 You'd like to see her spoil her owr fife and Roberts for the sake of { man who doesn't want her, and wht has been about as contemptfble as man could be and live.v

 ''I saw a bear in the pasture" he cried.
 Mrs. Pig promptly forgot her dis pleasure. Although her son was cer- tainly unharmed, she couldn't help being startled.
 It gave her what she called "a turn" to learn that Grunty had met "a bear
 "A bear!' Mrs. Pig gasped "A bear is terribly dangerous creature. It's wonder that you ever got home what did you do when you saw him?" Mrs. Pig demanded.
 1T walked away" said Grunty. He couldn't have noticed you," Mrs. Pig declared If you had squealed it would have been the end of you'
 Grunty Pig felt that he was the most important member of the fam fly. Not one of his brothers or sis ters had ever seen bear. At least they had never claimed to have en- joyed so fearsome a sight. "It was nothing," he boasted. "I'd just as soon meet a bear as the Old
 Muley Cow"
 His mother, however, was of an | other mind. She kept looking about in an uneasy fashion. 'I wish Farmer Green would come and put us into our pen" she mur- | mured. Tt will soon be dark.

Cook until apples are soft. Put into jellg bag and let drip with out squeezing. Measure juice and use cup for cup of sugar and juice. Cook juice and sugar till it sets when tried on a cold plate. Put jelly glasses on several thicknesses of cloth wrung out of hot water and pour the jelly into them. When cold cover with paraf- fine.
 A sprig of mint left in the jelly glass for a minute after the hot jelly is poured in gives the jelly a very delicate flavor

FEARFUL NEWS.

There came a day at last when
 Farmer Green gave Mrs. Pig and her family a great treat. He let them out of their pen and turned them loose in a little yard out of doors. Such gruntings and squealings hadn't been heard on the farm for a long time. It was just like picnic and every body had the finest of times. Still Grunty Pig wasn't content to stay in the yard with the rest of the family. It wasn't long before he found hole in the fence big enough to Wriggle

Suffering from a dropping off in
passenger and freight travel of nearly
forty percent over the same period q
year ago, the Great Northern railway
is retranching its depot forces over
the entire system. In Devils. Lake
this week, the ticket Office was re-
duced by the temporary laying off Of
Henry Sie!aff and General Agent O. S.
Blaul being recruited into that depart
ment as well as handling his other
official duties in passenger and freight
departments. For several months the
freight house has been working with
from five to six less truckers and
laborere than customary.
Business is thirty to forty per-
cent below what it was at this time
last year." Agent Blaul said today
"and there is no sign Of its picking
up Immediately" Asked about the
dismissal from services Of Mr.. Sielaff,
he said: 1T is just because business is
so slack-very few tickets being sold,
there is practically no business"
Merchants Are Optimistic

business in the dumps several mer-
chants here were avoiding pessimism,
