thought Johnny Chuck. Then as the
cornfield shut off his view of Farmer
Browns Boy he contentedly settled
down to enjoy that feast of lettuce.
Every one. or nearly every one,
within hearing Of that merry whistle
had very much such thoughts as those
of Danny Meadow Mouse and Johnny
Chuck. AS for Farmer Browns Boy.
he Whistled more merrily than ever
as he drew near the Smiling Pool.
He was going fishing. 1t was a long
time since he had been fishing. He
the cornfield, haying and in the gar
den. 1t had been long since he had
had day to himself in which to do
just what he wanted to do. Now he
had one and he was going fishing, first
at the Smiling Pool and then down at
the Big River. for If there is one
thing Farmer Browns Boy loves to
do it is to go fishing.
AS he whistled he was dreaming.
OF course those dreams were day
dreams and they were very pleasant
dreams. They were of the big fish he
hoped to catch: All fishermen have
these dreams. Suddenly into the
midst of them broke the harsh voice
of Sammy Jay Over in the swamp
some distance away Sammy was max
ing terrible fuss about something.
At first Farmer Browns Boy paid
no need he Kept right on toward
the Smiling Pool. Sammy Jay saw
this and redoubled his screams He
did his best to make them sound as
if he were terribly excited about
something. He knew that if Farmer
Browns Boy once got to fishing it
would probably be more than he
could do to induce him to leave. Still
Farmer Browns Boy tramped on
toward the Smiling Pool. Sammy
screamed until his throat ached.
Sammy Jay is making a great fuss
over something. Don't know as ever
heard him SO excited before" said
Farmer Browns Boy. talking to him
self. I'D Ike to know what has
stirred the scamp up SO. Probably
he has found Reddy Fox over there
and is trying to spoil his hunting
Goodness. what racket he is max
ing! If it wasn't that / want to get
to fishing I would run over there to
see what it is all about. 1t is some
thing unusual. that's sure. Sammy
never makes such a fuss as that over
nothing"
Farmer Browns Boy stopped and
looked toward the swamp. Sammy
saw him stop and at once screamed
harder than ever. Anyway he tried
to. He had.made Farmer Browns BOY
stop. Would he be able to make him
come over to the swamp?

Thoreau grew tired Of all our civilized
bric-a-brac, so he hied himself to
Walden Pond and built little shack
and lived there. His furniture COR
sisted of a packing box or two End
lots of fresh air. When he wante d to
clean house. he threw out the packing
box and threw in a bucket O. water
and called it day. He dispensed
with so much that finally he dis
pensed with paying his taxes and
landed in Jail pro tem.-but that doesn't
detract from the beauty and power of
his lesson.
Our lives are too cluttered.
We're so busy looking after things
that we never have time to get the
rest and joy we really need and be-
come acquainted with our own souls.
A good half of the people, tastes
and tasks we annex are an everlast-

the judgment trump sounded this
moment we'd all arrive at the heav-
emily throne painting. with date book

Life wasn't given US for that. 1t
was given for our growth and en-

courage to simplify things and cut
out all the fuss and parasites. But
we'll never get anywhere unless we
do, and we ought to start right now.

CHAPTER XII.
Birds of Different Feather.

T EAVING the creveling house, Nc
- Carly for the second time that day
boarded south-going bus. having as
certained from Rollins that Mr.. Mich
olas Cutter lived on lower Fifth avenue
near Washington Square, and as he
rode downtown he wondered somewhat
grimly if further mystery were to greet
him at his destination. Never had he
known a case with so many conflicting
elements, so many threads which led
apparently nowhere, such an inextricable
tangle of tantalizing suggestions and
false clues Somewhere among them,
he knew, lay the solution to the enigma,
but it still eluded him. Would Cutter
turn out to be as much of puzzle as
the rest of them had been?
The number given him proved to be
that of an fashioned square man
sion of brick and brownstone situated
upon a corner and running back to an
unusual depth upon the side street, with
high wall bordering the strip OF yard
which separated it's extension from the
past and examined the extension with
curious eyes. 1t resembled conserva-
tory, but the walls and dome were
formed of thick, opaque, rubbed glass,
behind which he fancied he could d1Stln-
guish a network of strong, protecting
wires; surely, if there were plants in
there they were of extraordinary value
to require such guard, and must be of
some species which needed no sunlight.
The shades had been raised at all the
windows of the house, but they were
masked by heavy lace curtains, behind
which some darker material hung in
close folds, and no sign of life appeared
about the establishment.
McCarty mounted the broad steps
which led to the massive front door and
sounded with a vigorous hand the bronze
knocker which faced him between the
wide panels. Its echo crashed upon
his ears like the clang of Jail gate
and promptly the door swung open. re-
vealing an elderly figure in conventional
black, whose faded eyes blinked rapidly
in the rays Of the setting sun as though
unaccustomed to it's light.

here?' McCarty asked.

but the shrunken. stoop- fig

Carly made a move to step inside.

Preserving Peaches and Pears.

Preserving Peaches and Pears.
Last week / gave some directions
for preserving peaches-but one
could write almost endlessly on can
ming and preserving this delicious
fruit. 1 therefore offer the following
additional peach recipes together
with some pear recipes:
Peach Marmalade.-Put whole
peaches into a cheesecloth bag and
lower them into boiling water for
from one to two minutes, after which
plunge the bag into cold water for a
second; the skins may then be rubbed
off. Halve and stone the fruit, then
weigh it. For every pound, set aside
a pound of sugar, to be added later.
few finely chopped kernels for
tiavor) into the agate preserving
kettle, which has been moistened in
side with cold water to prevent the
peach pulp from sticking to it. Heat
slowly. mashing with wooden or
burning. When the pulp is soft and
thick, it is time to add the sugar
which you previously measured and
set aside. Boil slowly until the juice
is jelly-like when a little is put on a
plate or until two drops will form
at once on a spoon when a little of
the juice is held high in the air and
dripped back into the kettle. Then
pour into hot, sterilized glasses, let
Ccol and cover with melted paraffin.
Stuffed Pickled Peaches (good to
