A suggestion Of q smile crinkled the
mountaineer's eyes. He finished poking
tobacco into the black pipe and picked
a blazing splinter from the FIRE.

Ethel studied the man. She WAS accus-

the part of the mountain inhabitants
when in her presence. but there was
nothing Of embarrassment about this
man From his heavy lace boots to his
worn little hat he was all calm sureness.
Suddenly Ethel was swept by a strange

Moved by an accountable impulse, Ethel
rose.

He turned and looked into her eyes.
She was conscious of an earnestnesa in
his gaze that frightened her Something

PUsS IN BOOTS JR-


When Puss Junior had finished his
story he got up and stretched himself
and then he looked at the little boy and
said: I'VE must be going now, for We
have many miles to travel" So the
Blackbird tapped his wings and Tom
Thumb climbed up on Puss Junior
shoulder.
"Good-by, little boy. good-by, little
hoy" and our three small travellers went
out Of the gate, leaving the little bog
standing on the porch looking wistfully
after them.
How -do-do," said Puss as a small
toad Jumped across the highway.
"Croak," said the toad, I'm hungry,
Today I've had nothing to eat or to

By Ralph Cummins

Had Bedrock Snively been little
more lenient with his spoiled, head
strong daughter, she probably would
not have decided to elOpe with Carter
RevenaL But when she found that
her father had employed detectives to
watch her movements and had even
installed a photograph to catch the
trend of her conversations with RAJ
venal, she decided to run away.
In @ wild drive over the mountains,
the machine in which Ethel and Ra-
venaI were riding, breaks down. The
accident occurred In a lonely road
where but few persons travelled, and
1t was still long way to the town
where the clippers had planned to be
married. A snow storm breaks. The
pair finds a place of refuge In the
cabin of a mountaineer who becomes
interested I'm the game the two are
playing, and takes care of them over
night. From here the story continues
to grow In interest Read each In
