The whole Meadow Mouse family enjoyed swimming. They liked to live near water. That was why they made their home in the low meadow where Broad Brook ran deeper and more quietly than in the hillside pasture And Black Creek, too was nearby, so the Meadow Mouse family never had to travel far when they wanted a cool dip.
 Almost as soon as he was able to wander about the meadow alone Master Mouse began to swim. He didn't have to be taught, any more than he had to be taught how to walk. Swimming came to him as easily as eating. And his mother never worried about his being drowned. But when he went for his first swim in Black Creek, Mrs. Meadow Mouse couldn't help feeling a bit anxious.
 Look out!" she warned her son. Look out for the Pickerel tribe They're the most dangerous fish in the creek"
 "Yes." said Master Meadow Mouse. "I know that. I've been told about them already"
 You have!" his mother exclaimed. Who told you?"
 "A greenish gentleman with very wide smile and queer, bulging eyes, Master Meadow Mouse replied.
 That's Ferdinand Frog" Mrs. Meadow Mouse cried. Hes as dan gerous as any Pickerel that ever swan Where did you meet him ?'
 II stood on the bank Of the creek one day and saw him among the lily pads her son explained. We had quite a Gong talk together-I forgot to mention it to you he added.
 The news made Mrs. Meadow Mouse turn slightly pale. She shuddered al thought the day was warm; TOT she feared and detested Ferdinand Fros.
 Don't ever go near that slippery

the small person on the bank.
 You've come for a swim-haven' t you ?" said Ferdinand Frog.
 Master Meadow Mouse admitted that he had intended to swim. But he explained that the water looked wetter than usual and he thought he'd wait till another day. Besides, !" he added. the sun has gone under a cloud and my suit wouldn't dry quickly enough"
 Come right in and have your swim" Mir. Frog urged him. You can change your clothes as soon as you get home.''
 "Oh-no,-I can't" said Master Meadow Mouse.
 Why not?" MT. Frog asked him"
 Because I haven't any more!'
 Now, that's pity" Ferdinand Frog told him. "A handsome young ster like you ought to have best suit to wear on special occasions"
 Master Meadow Mouse looked inter ested.
 "I'd like a nice new suit" he re- plied But where am I going to get it?"
 You've come to the right place"' Mir. Frog cried. Maybe you didn't know that I'm a tailor. I'll make you a new suit myself"
 That's very kind of you" said Master Meadow Mouse bit, doubt fully. But I don't know how could pay you"
 The tailor laughed merrily.
 Don't you worry about that.' he exclaimed. '1'll get my pay some how And now you must come to my shop at once. l want to take your measure"
 Mir. Meadow Mouse shook his head.
 "No.' he told MT Frog. I'm not going to your shop. I'm not going a single step nearer to you than l am now. I've taken your measure al ready, Mir. Frog. l know your game. And you can't catch me that way
 For once Ferdinand Frog forgot to laugh. He was so surprised that his mouth fell wide open as he stared at Master Meadow Mouse.
 He had an enormous mouth. Master Meadow Mouse shivered slightly as he looked down Mir Frogs throat.
 The tailor closed his mouth almost immediately. For huge plckerel came nosing among the lily pads. And spying Mr. Frog, he at once dart ed towards him.
 Mr. Frog swan off in great haste.
 "That Pickerel person. said MT. Meadow Mouse aloud, means to take Mir. Frogs measure if he can.' Copyright 1922 by The Metropolitan

How Katie Led Madge and Lillian
 Down the Lonely Lane,

Katie sprang from the couch on which Lillian and had deposited her but a few inmates before, as If she never had known tremor. Either the pungent restorative Lillian had brought her, or my drastic threat to lock her up-probably the combina- tion-had quieted her hysteria, and had given her new boise.
 "Ner my cloak" she asked.
 Here" Lillian took it from chair and handed each Of us heavy dark veil, the next minute beginning to tie one on her own head.
 "Wrap your heads in these" she said and keep your faces covered as much as you can. We want to get as near you, Katie. as we can, and we don't want 10 be seen"
 '''You bet" Katie declared emphati- caily. IL is her favorite expression of acquiesccnce, and she uses 1t in sea son and out Of season, much as Jerry Ticer does his invariable Yes. ma'am," no matter what the sex of the person to whom he is speaking. You bet I no want nobody to see yon. l get vot Meestcr Dicky say. merry hell eef dot ma--eef anybody see you.'
 "VOt You Mcan?"
 With her ostrich propensity she was still keeping up the fiction that We did not know the sex of the person who had so terrified her.
 Nobody will" Lillian said conf hently. then, as Katie turned toward the kitchen, instead of the front door, she asked quickly: (Which way are you going?"
 Katie stopped and looked at us un- certainly.
 You say dot Jeem no stop me to- night?" she asked.
 No, Katie, he will not trouble you tonight" I returned, and she must have caught something unconsciously ominous in my tone, for she turned on me quickly, demanding: 'Vot you mean by dot?"
 ,"Ncthing at all," l returned mak- ing my tone purposely impatient. We told you before that Jim had promised Mrs. Underwood not to interfere with you tonight. Now tell us in which direction we are going, how far and where"

BETTER THAN CAL0MEL
Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets
 are a Harmless Substitute

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub- stitute for calomel-are mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. These little olive colored tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
 The pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't iniure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at theexpense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel. Let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take its place. ..
 Headaches, "dullness and that lazy feeling come from constipation and 9 disordered liver. Take. Dr.. Edwards Olive Tablets when you feel "logy" and "heavy." They clear" clouded brain and "perk up" the spirits. t5c and BOG.

We going down on dot old wood road to Sag tIarbor, just beyond dot heeg rock we're dot automobile got turned over. Dcre leetle road turn off from beeg road. und we go down dot few feet out of sight
 shivercd irrcprcssbly, for l knew the spot and Il lonelicr more dangerous place for a night encounter with a probably desperate man could not be imagined. The road is q winding, tortuous one, n dream Of sylvan beauty in the daylight, but q dangerous thoroughfare by night, and there were not Il dozen cars in n night travcrsing it.
 'lSut that Is il mile around the road" said, We never can make it in time"
 "Hoosh-I,istcn !''
 We not going by road" Katie re- torted, Feet only leetle ofer half mile across pasture and through dot wood pat to beeg road, und l can feex you oop fine in place to hide we're you can hear eferyting.'
 "All right, Katie, go ahead" l said impatiently, and in another minute we were outside the house with Mother Graham latching the door be- hind us. That her old fingers were tremulous with terror for us, I well knew, and l mentally paid tribute to her gallant spirit in keeping down any expression of her feeling as she saw us forth. -.--
 Shade those flashlights and keep their light on the ground" was the only advice she had given us as she let us out the door, and we accepted and acted upon the suggestion as soon as the intense darkness made it nec- essary for us to use them.
 shall not soon forget that toilsome, nerve-racking journey through the pasture land and woods to the old wood road, Katie, because she knew the trail stalked ahead, using the flash light in the more difficult places let ting us follow her almost indistinct outline in the easier places. The only words uttered were a whisper of mine to Lillian when he had gone but a few rods on our way.
 Suppose he discovers us and turns ugly"
 Lillian did not speak in reply, but she reached out her left hand, took mine and guided it to the thing which the liners of her right hand were firmly graspng. I had no need for words as 1 touched the cold steel. recognized the little silencer pistol which Lillian only carries in moments of unusual danger. l needed nothing more to tell me what estimate she placed upon the encounter before us.
 And then we had come out upon the wood road and in another minute had glided into the other path and were being hidden by Katie in a little thicket of bushes, from which we could distinctly hear voices either on the main road or in the little lane. Katie, herself, stayed with us, whispering tensely:
 Wen I hear vistle, one, two-one, two, three, den l go out. Hoosh- listen .'
 Down the road came the expected signal, and the girl stepped out into the little line. The whistle came nearer, so quickly and with such ab- sence of other noise that it did not take Sherlock Holmes to deduce that the man was riding a bicycle. We were so intent upon the queer whistle that we heard only subcon- sciously the noise of an approaching motor car in the opposite direction.
 And then the sight haunts my eyes yet-the car rounding the curve, caught the cyclist who had no lamp and hurled him almost to our feet.

 Now, Master Meadow Mouse some times thought that he knew more than his mother about certain mat ters. And he was inclined to take her advice lightly.
 "Ferdinand Frog was very pleas ant when l met him." he remarked. "He cracked jokes. And he laughed at them himself.'
 "Oh, he's pleasant enough.' Mrs. Meadow Mouse agreed. He'd grin and swallow you at the same time with that great mouth of his. That's what makes him so dangerous"

Master Meadow Mouse. He prom sed to teach me to dive if I'd join him in the water"
 Its mercy you didn't" Mrs Meadow Mouse gasped. I'm glad you had sense enough to stay on the bank"
 "Oh I knew better than to take a swim in the creek that day." Master Meadow Mouse said. "The pickerel family were nosing about among the pickerel weeds around the bend of the creek. 1 saw them myself. And MT Frog told me I ought to beware of them. He was very anxious-so he said-about me and the Pickerel. He said he didn't want them to catch me. He was very kind, I thought"
 "Kind!" Mrs. Meadow Mouse splut- tered. He didn't want them to catch you because he hopes to catch you himself"
 Mir. Frog Insists.
 Master Meadow Mouse had come to Black Creek to enjoy his first swim in it's dark, sluggish water. But, when he arrived on the bank he changed his mind about wimming there that day. For whom should he see but Ferdinand Frog sitting on a rock at the edge of the creek.
 For once Master Meadow Mouse was ready to take his mothers ad- vice. She had told him to beware of Ferdinand Frog and never, never never to enter the water when that pleasant gentleman was in it.
