Then ] obeyed Lillian's injunction and went back 10 bed, feeling-as I drew the soft coverlet over me, with a curiou. sense of crawling into refuge-that the encounter with my mother-in law had upset me more than I had realized at the time.
 l stayed there sleeping and read ing all day. Katie brought up my breakfast with so much fussing over my supposed headache that l felt like an imposter. Lillian ran in two or three times, explaining that her ruse had worked, and that Mother Graham would take both children into her room in the evening and keep them there with her door securely locked while vc set the stage for Smith be- lowstairs. But, she added, was still decidedly persona non grata with my relative by marriage, and she thought 1t advisable for me to remain out of sight or the irate lady until she was safely in her room for the night.
 No use spilling the beans unless it's necessary" Lillian said upon her second visit. T don't need you for a single thing, and day of loungins around won't do you any harm"
 T love it," I returned sincerely What time do you want me to be dressed and ready tonight, and IS there anything especial you want me to wearo"
 Be ready when it's time to turn on the lights she answered, "and wear let's see-that out.t you play golf in, that dark, one-piece dress, it's comfortable and loose. and easy to get i,to. Stick that big, dark blue motor veil somewhere around you SO you'll have it handy, and be sure your shoes are rubber-soled.

 We don't use words like that in the village" he murmured. we talk very elegantly down there"
 Why don't you go back there ?' Jimmy asked the white bunny blunt ly
 T would if I could; but how can F" the white stranger retorted. Cant you see that I'm in sort of cage?''
 Huh. I could dig my way out of that quickly enough" Jimmy Rabbit declared. Look! Do you see that corner over there? Johnny Greens wire floor doesn't cover it. Get to work, friend, and you'll be out here with me before you know it."
 Pardon mel" said the white bun ny. T didn't know I was a friend of yours"
 Well, you see" Jimmy told him gallantly. You're a friend of mine, and I'm friend of yours'
 The white gentleman looked doubt ful about that
 T never had any friends who were wild Rabbits" he remarked. T don't know what my friends down in the village would say if they saw me talking to you'
 They'd say you were lucky" Jim my Rabbit said tartly. To tell the truth, he was beginning to lose pa .ience with the fnicky stranger. Still, Jimmy didn't like to see anybody ,ooped up in a cage. I've told you tow to escape" he reminded John- 1ie Greens pet Do hurry and dig ,our way out"

 "Oh." said Jimmy Rabbit So you belong to Johnny Green, eh?"
 The white bunny nodded.
 Who's your owner" he asked his caller.
 Jimmy Rabbit looked surprised.
 T haven't any" he replied.
 I suppose nobody wants you" the white person went on. Being a com mon wild Rabbit, you're not the sort that people care to have for a pet. A pink ribbon wouldn't look stylish against your yelowish- -brownish coat
 No. It wouldn't" Jimmy Rabbit agreed heartily.
 Did you ever try blue one?" the gentleman from the village in- ouired. You know, they're wearing blue a bit, this season.
 Jimmy Rabbit grinned.

 It was a lovely night in summer. Jimmy Rabbit was feeling very hap py. He had just enjoyed a delicious supper of cabbage and turnips in Farmer Greens garden. And now he was hopping about the dooryard of the farmhouse, smiling because he knew that old dog Spot was fast asleep in his little house nearby.
 Spot would be surprised if he knew who was calling here tonight" Jimmy chuckled And then, as he turned corner of the farmhouse, he had a surprise himself. Inside wire runawkay, white Rabbit stood and stared at him.
 'Hello!" said Jimmy. Where did you come from?"
 Are you addressing mel" the white bunny asked somewhat cooly 'Hoity-toity!" cried Jimmy Rab- bit. T certainly am. Did you think was talking to old dog sport?"
 The white bunny shivered.
 That terrible creature!" he ex- claimed. T can't bear the sight of him. I wish I'd never left my home in the village"
 "Oh " said Jimmy Rabbit. 'So you came from the Illage!"
 T did" answered the stranger. i've never known anything about farm life. I thought I'd like it. But I find was mistaken"
 Whats the matter with farm life?" Jimmy Rabbit asked the white bunny.
 Its not elegant enough for me" the other explained. At home, in the village. my mistress tied a pink ribbon around my neck every morn ing. Really, I feel quite lost with out that pretty pink bow under my chin"
 Jimmy Rabbit stared at the white bunny as if he could hardly believe it was all true
 Well" he said at last, you've got a kind mistress here. They say that Mrs Green"
 T have no mistress at all now"

PALACE THEATER,

Trouble" was the name of the pie ture and trouble it was that the Pal iace management had last evening try ing to handle the large crowds who came out to see Jackie Coogan in Trouble" at its initial showing last evening. It will play up to and in- ciuding Wednesday night.
 There is more story to Trouble" than any of the plays in which Jackie
 has appeared. even including 'The
 Kid" He is discovered at the out
 set as a voluntary vagrant sleeping
 in a barrel because he had run away
 from an orphanage that refused to
 house his dog "Queenie.' A police
 man takes him back to the home and shortly afterward Jackie is adopted
 by the wife of a shiftless plumber The man is lazy and a wife beater. When he refuses to go to attend to a job, Jackie substitutes for, him, but manages to make a leaking water pipe a geyser that floods cellar, bathroom and kitchen. There is lots of real fun in this scene. Four good acts of Keith vaudeville is included on. the bill.

Lillans scheme for getting me out ot Mother Graham'S way unr' that irascihle lady had been pacfled was most welcome one to me. But her reference 10 the work in front of us made me utter a protest,
 "of course the day is going to be a very short one for you, and as calm AS a."
 If you dare to say summer morn Ae or millponl' I'll throttle y,l.h ,~e threatened merrily, and I realized anew how futile was any attempt to change Lillans decisions when she lad once made them.
 You stopped me just in time,' I admitted laughingly. And in re- vence, I thing I'll not only go to bed, but stay there. I allow no one to flout my similes."

 Not unless she bakes enough so I can have four" she retorted. then added with a quick change of man. ner Don't let Mother Graham see or hear you getting back to your room."
 I nodded in comprehension and accommodated carefully through a crack in the door before hurrying noiselessly down the hall. Luckily reached my room in safety, and found Marion and Junior enjoying a hilar- ious romp for which Marion apol- ogized with winsome ruefulness.
 He isn't dressed, Auntie Madge, and I haven't fixed my hair. I'm so sorry, but he is so cunning. I just couldn't help it."

AN OLD RECIPE
 TO DARKEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns Gray, Faded Hair Dark and
 Glossy.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound cd, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded. streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome.
 Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur Compound" You will get a large bottle of this d-time recipe improved by the addition of other in- gredients, at very little cost. Every body uses this prepafation now, be- cause no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it SO naturally and evenly. You damp en sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time; by morn iag the gray hair disappears, and aft CT another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger.
