 Perhaps I can find out where he is, Virginia. hut if. as you say. your father promised your grandfather never to make himself known to you he will keep his word. With Ralph Winston, that promise is as good as the day he made it.,

 And when told her she made no comment except to say: T do not like the room have at all. shall ask the clerk to put me near you.'

So Mrs. Reddy started OF to in
vestiEate, which means. as you
know, to look into and ind out
about. Straight over to Farmer
Browns trotted Mrs. Reddy, taking
care that she should not be seen by
any one. AS she crept up back Of
the barn she heard a sound that
made her tingle all over.
"Quack, quack. quack, quscx"
came the voices of Ducks from scme-
where back Of Farmer Browns
house
That's it," exclaimed Mrs. Reddy.
That's It! Reddy heard those Ducks
and he Just couldn't keep away from
them. The temptation was too much
for him. My, how those children
would enjoy a Duck dinner! They
never have tasted anything so deli
cious. I'll never have another such
chance to get them a Duck, and they
really ought to know what a Duck
is like"
She slipped around the corner OF
the barn and up to the very place
from which Reddy had peeped out at
those Ducks. She saw that they
were in a low pen of wire. The way
jumped over that low fence. seized
one of those Ducks by the neck.

The names Grover. Groves, Graves
and Greaves all come from this
source. Families which .dwelt along
such stretches Of road naturally came
to be distinguished at very early
period by their neighbors by such
phrases as "at the grove" and the
like. which is the reason that sur
names Of this character are of much
longer standing as hereditary titles
than those denotirg personal charac-
teristics or parentage. AS the son

he naturally acquired the same de-
scriptive name without any conscious

about one Of the dangers they would
have to watch out for and that Bow
ser the Hound was greatly to be
feared. Mrs. Reddy had pointed out
where Bowser lived and told them
that never must they go near there.
OF course the four little Foxes prom
ised that they never would.
After Reddy with Bowser at his
heels had disappeared Mrs. Reddy
led tho four young Foxes home. She
sent them into the house which. you
know, is a hole deep in the ground,
and told them that under no cir
cumstances were they to so much
as put their noses outside until she
called them. Then she sat down to
think.
"Reddy would never have been so
foolish as to go over to Farmer
Browns unless he had discovered
something there that was a tempta-
ton too great for him to resist"
thought Mrs Reddy. Il wonder what
1t was. 1t must have been some
thing that would make an extra fine
dinner l believe I'll run over there
myself. Reddy has led Bowser far
away. cannot even hear his voice
now. From that big rock on the
