 Its not as if we were relatives oi Uncle Isaac's.' Mrs. Rabbit com. , plained to her husband. 'I don't sec why he doesn't go and stay with his own people"
 They won't have him any more, II said Mfr. Rabbit.
 There's his sister. Mrs William Henry Bunny" Mrs. Rabbit remind ed him. She's always glad to take him into her house. Her husband objects" Mir. Rabbit explained. He threatened to keep dog if Uncle Isaac ever visits them again"
 My goodness," cried Mrs. Rabbit That would be terrible" The mere thought of anybody's keeping a dog upset her so that she dropped a pan upon the floor
 The chatter awoke Uncle Isaac Bun- ny, who had been dozing in the most comfortable chair in the house. He started up in alarm, crying, Whats that awful noise?"
 MT. Rabbit was speaking about keeping a dog" Mrs. Rabbit started to explain. But she never finished. Before she could say another word. Uncle Isaac grabbed his hat and coat and stick. Then he whisked out of the door without even saying good afternoon. It was the first time he had crossed the threshold since he entered the house wee1- before.
 Mir. Rabbit sprang to the door and shot the bolt.
 Well be on the safe side" he re- marked. He may get over his fright

 He went away at last The Rabbit amily could hear him muttering to himself as he left.
 "There'll be one good meal in the they get the dog" said 1ncle Isaac Bunny. But it won't be he Rabbit family that will enjoy it."

 There's story connected with that trunk" Latham's voice was reminis- cent Its little fat thing-as small 1 a trunk I think, as I've ever seen. It's in an old shack on the river bank. unless the shack has been dismantled and the trunk stolen by boys or tramps. The last time I saw it was three years ago.
 Tt was open then. Dan Ward was sitting on the floor beside it." slowly. Ward and my older brother were close friends. They had this little fish ing lodge and for a number of years spent every weekend there. If I'm not mistaken, the place belonged to Dan,
 By the way" Latham broke off, have you ever looked among his pa- ptlS u Stt II llt IdpptuS lu HdNe d deed to a. small plot of land along the Wabash"
 No" from Kate, "I never inn agined he owned anything but the clothes he had on his back. his car and enough money to keep us going until his next client settled up"
 Might pay you to look that up" cntinued Latham "T'm almost s,,re it belonged to Dan.
 Occasionally my brother used to take me to the cabin with him. On this particular day Dan was there when we reached the place He had this little trunk open on the floor be- side him. with his clothes strewn out. remember his having in his hand q packet of letters. possibly four or five envelopes, not more than that.
 We started 10 joke about them" continued Latham. and Dan seemed to resent it. Ii seemed that there had been a girl and my brother knew it. That was probably three years ago before you were married ?"
 The implied question startled Kate. She had been thinking of the girl and the packet of letters.
 We were married eight years ago" she said, and instantly regretted it.
 There was pity in the lock Latham bent on her. He didn't attempt to go on with the story.
 At length Kate said:

Marriage A La Mode

Tn Russia. the best man attends the bride, not the bridegroom. Even the poorest bride has her dowry and an elaborate trosseau. and the wedding is an elaborate affair. The groom is supposed to make some gift to a church or religious order, and the bride must present gems to the ikon of the Virgin. Tn some parts Of Russia she must present the village priest with pair of white doves. Of course, these customs have been modified, in many cases, by soviet rule.

RUSSIAN DISADVANTAGES!
Vets Living There Have Trouble OBJ
tanning Claims Against q. S.

WASHINGTON, July 21.-Veterans
Of the World War, who have taken up
residence in Russia are experiencing
some difficulty in obtaining claims
against the United States Government
according to information received by
Joe Sparks, chairman of the American
Legion's national legislative commit
tee.
Because there are no persons in
Russia authorized to take acknowledg.
ments on applications, affidavits and
other papers applying to claims made
by disabled war fighters, the Veter-
ans Bureau has fond it necessary to
hold in allegiance all claims of persons
residing in Russia until such time as
the proper concular officers are able
to operate.
The assistance of the American
Legion has been asked by the Bureau
to work out some procedure whereby
the situation can be remedied.
