that the explosion wouldn't take place

"Pst!' she said, and laughed quite
mirthlessly. Pat. He's in big bust

and spying on her. I'm ashamed of you.
Anne-ashamed and bitterly dlsappoint-

Jeanne" l replied with the semblance
Of a composure l was far from feeling,
I'm surprised and bitterly disappointed
to think-you won't listen!"

asked Virginia in a strangled voice
"Humorous." l retorted, passionately.
Humorous, indeed. when l brave the

so was Pat. He adores Phoebe She's
baby-girl to him-a little girl to pro-

fair, you'll see I'm right"
Virginia stared at me in amazement for
a moment. Something in the tremendous
feeling I had and dared not express must
have swayed her and moved her to recOg-
nize the truth of my feelings. For this

and his boyish love. For this my little

PUss IN BOOTS JR.
By David Cory.

As the Speckled Trout came close 70
the nalace of the Waterfall Fairy, as
mentioned in the story before this, big
black spider. who was busily at work
mending the suspension bridge which
| spanned the lake, for the heavy drops
| of dew had broken the slender strands In
several places, stopped his work and
said: what do you wish 2"
II am the bearer Of most important
dispatch for Her Highness," answered the
| trout
"Wen, and I am engaged In the most
| important duty Of repairing Her High
ness bridge" replied the spider.
$50 I see," answered the trout, but
At this very moment the Queen herself,
hearing voices at so early an hour out
side her window, peeped out. Catching
sight of her the trout called out boldly:
Listen to me- l beg of you, most gra-
cious Queen. I have brought you the
gold ring from Puss, who is in great
danger" At this the Queen quickly
withdrew her head, and in a short time
in which, I suppose, she slipped on herr
most becoming kimOno, came out Of the
doorway Of her castle. Hastily runninsf
to the waters edge she leaned overlS
grasping hold of a stalk to keep herself
from falling.
Here is the ring" said the trout, hold
ing it up in his mouth and swimming
as close to the bank as he was able. The
| Queen reached out and took it from him.
Il will make you King of my Fishes,
noble Sir Trout" she cried, for what
you have done this day. Remain here in
my lake henceforth And now, to the
rescued" In a short time she was mount
ed on her swiftest robin, and with her
three ladies in waiting few away towards
the castle where Puss Junior and the
beautiful Princess, her brave brother and
the giant wree held prisoners by the
wicked King.
Now, the little Bluebird, when she saw
her friend, the trout. swim away, sud
denly thought Of her former master, tha
King of the Gnomes So, whirling around
in circle to get her bearings, she dart
ed off swiftly through the air towards
his cave in the forest. She made rapid
progress until she reached the thick
foliage of the woods, where, in her eager
ness, she nearly lost her way. But at
last, just at dawn she found herself at
the foot OF the hill in which was the
Gnome Kings cave. Wo n out with her
long journey, she duttered down to the
edge of the bubbling fountain. Then
picking up a pebble she dropped it into
the little gravelly basin, hoped pain
fully over to the great fat stone and
tapped upon it three times with her
beak Suddenly the rock opened in the
middle, and the King Of the Gnomes
stretched out a kindly hand for the lit
tie Bluebird to rest upon and carried her
into the cave. 1t was his breakfast hour.
for gnomes are early risers. Seating
himself at the table, he gave orders that
the little bird be served with breakfast
at once.
And now we must wait until the next
story to hear how he helped rescue Puss

the range get red hot nor piled the coal
above the tireboX for fear the top Of it

oven clean by brushing it out every day
when she swept the kitchen floor. When

scraped it out with a knife just as soon
