"Now you're talking" encouraged
Mrs. Penfield, with a brighter ex-

Mrs. Penfield went over to the cor

she hung the board on the wall. From
the cupboard she produced toy

Crink when the first owner had tired
Of it. This she hung also, suspending
1t by longer piece of twine beside
the board.
There you are" she announced to
the watchful Lettie. you try this,
and bet it'll help. Now, whenever
you feel yourself getting mad. you run
right in here and pound that board
with this here rolling-pin. Try it fifty
times; and II your arm amt tired

thing, but If you get your muscles

Now Lettie, If you get mad again,

Mrs. Penfield sighed. "Come here,

Lettte's body swayed. Her lids
futtered. In the few weeks that she
had been in this house. she had at
tached herself to Mrs. Penfield with
doglike devotion. All the rich af-
fection In her nature, held In check
for want of an outlet, had poured out
to this woman who had fed and
clothed and loved her. Lettie idolized
her; she would have walked straight
to destruction for her If occasion had
offered. She would not have shrunk
from the high. spectacular deed OF
sacrifice; but the more difficult
humble matter of controlling her own
temper, had been too much for her
to compass. Yet not once had 1t oc.

Wopple, who played his old hose on
Lettie and Filibuster Caesar with not
able impartiality. Whenever Fill could
uraw dry breath, he charged upon
the enemy-no longer in play, but with
low growls that had been bequeathed
by some fighting ancestor. FINALLY
these attempts eliminated.
1t was while Lettie, thoroughly

fruitless efforts to escape the stream

range in such way as to increase
the force with which she was being

Caesar Penfield sprang at Mr.. Wop-
pies hand, snapped in reversion to a
distant bulldog, then fortunately re-
considered at the behest of some mild
er relative that had sat docilely on
cushions and by the fireside.

CORY path, sprang to do the bidding
of his mistress, but was met by violent
opposition. During the scramble, the
crafty Lettie was able to seize the
hose; and with an inarticulate whoop
of triumph she flooded the person Of
Mr.. Josiah Wopple with superlative
skill that proved well-trained eye
and steady hand.
Shouts, barks. threats, water, filled
the air; increasing mud modified ev-
erybody's intentions. Faces appeared
at neighboring windows, but no one
interfered or even spoke. This was
not so much due to an ethical atti-
tude in The Custard Cup as to an un-
written law of freedom in speech
and act, that no spectator might be
deprived of the full performance Of
any drama that was started.
