a dark day. When a new boy. wha
didn't belong to the school. came up
at recess to play, Piggy shuffied over
to him and asked grufiiy:
whats your name?'
"Puddln' n tame, asst me agln an
I'll tell you the same" said the new
boy, and then there was a fight. 1t
didn't soothe Piggy's feelings one bit
that he whipped the new boy. for
the new boy was smaller than Piggy.
And he dared not turn his flushed face
towards his Hearts Desire. 1t was
almost four o'clock when Piggy Pen
nington walked to the masters desk
to get him to work out u problem.
and as he passed the desk OF Hearts
Desire he dropped a note In her lap.
1t read:

But he dared not look for the an

so he contented himself with punch

and stepping on his heels, when they
were in the back part of the room,
where. the teacher would not see him.

that evening. The courtiers saw plain

After this feat the king was quiet
At dusk, when the evening chores
were done, Piggy Pennington walked
past the home of his Hearts Desire
and howled out doleful ballad which
began:
"YOu ask what makes this darkey

Why he like others am not gay"
But man on the sidewalk passing
said: "Well. son, that's pretty good
but wouldn't you just as lief sing as
to make that noise?" SO the king
went to bed with a heavy heart.
| He took that heart to school with
him the next morning. and dragged II
over the school ground. playing crack
the whip and "stink-base." But when
he saw Hearts Desire wearing in her
hair one of the white roses from his
mothers garden-the Pennington's
had the only white roses in the little
town-he knew II was from the wreath
which he had given her. and so light
was his boylsh heart that 1t was with
an effort that he kept 1t out OF his
throat. There were smiles and smiles
that day. During the singing they
began, and every time she came past

look straight ahead Of him, as IL he
did not hear the question, and say:

would go and tell Abe I want him to
hurry up, for l want to see him."
ABE" was Plggy's nearest friend.
His other name was Carpenter. Piggy
only wished to be rid of the freckle-
faced boy. But the freckle-faced boy
was not used to royalty and its ways,
so he pushed his inquiry.
"Say. Piggy. have you got your red
ball-pants in that bundler'
There was no reply. They had gone
block when the freckle-faced boy
could stand it no longer and said:
Say. Piggy. you needn't be so smart
about your old bundle; now honest.
Piggy, what have you got in that bun
dle?"
"Aw-soft soap, take a bite-good
fer yer appetite" said the king. as he
faced about and drew up his left cheek
and lower eye-lid pugnaciously. The

When the last bell rang, Piggy Pen
nington was the last boy In, and he
did not look toward the desk where he
had put the flowers, until after the
| singing.
Then he stole sidewise glance that
way, and his Hearts Desire was deer
in her geography. 1t was an age be
fore she filed past him with the "B'

directly in front of him, where ht
could look at her all the time, unob

for recess, the thrill amounted to a
shock that sent him whirling in a pin
wheel of handsprings toward the ball
ground, shouting "scrub-first bat,
first bat, first bat" from sheer, bub-
bling joy. Piggy made four tallies that
recess. and the other boys cosldn't
have put him out, If they had used a
hand grenade or a fire extinguisher.
He received four distinct shots that
day from the eyes OF his Hearts Desire,
and the last one sent him home on the
run, tripping up every primary urchin'
whom he found tagging along by the
way and whooping at the top Of his
voice.
The next morning, Piggy Pennington
astonished his friends by bringing a
big armful of red and yellow and pink
and white roses to school.
He had never done this before, and
when he had run the gauntlet of the

still Hearts Desire did not ask for
her flowers. There were but few
moments left before school would be
called to order, and in desperation
Piggy gave one rose away. 1t was not

would see that the others were to be

He was too exuberant to contain
himself, and when he left the girls
he started to run after a stray chicken

Because Of the narrow streets In

In New York state it is misde-

If the engine shows too great
