 carried her head very high. Often she cooked it on one side. She seemed to be listening for something. And she was.
 The other geese sometimes nudged one another, saying, perhaps, "She expects to hear the dinner bell-and it's only an hour after breakfast" Or maybe they would ask one another. Did she hear pin-feather drop 2" And then they would giggle and flap their wings.
 But Grandma Goose was not as silly as those light minded geese would have had you think They ought to have known what she was listening for. She told them again and again that certain sound, heard at the pond, meant danger. Still they paid little or no heed to her warnings. They thought that Grandma Goose was fussy old lady who was always looking for trouble where there couldn't possibly be any.
 If Grandma Goose guessed what the other geese said about her habit of listening while they were swiIn- ming, she never paid the slightest at- tention to their remarks. She listen ed and listened just the same.
 Then, at last, there came a day when she suddenly cried, There it is. There's the danger signal. Get ashore, everybody. and follow me to the farmyard at once."
 The flock had been having such a fine time in the water that no one except Grandma--kad heard a cer- tain odd noise, which sounded as If somebody had struck the surface of the pond with shingle, But Grand ma Goose's ears had caught that sound. The moment she heard it she knew what it was and who made it. It was muskrat skipping his tail up on the water.

Buffalo Police Chief Seeks Decoration
 For Man Who Helped Capture
 Bandits.
 Buffalo, March 16.-Albert Schwartz, iceman and plain citizen. will be the proud possessor of a department of police gold medal for bravery if Po- lice Chief Burfeind's recoth thiiendations are indorsed by the council.
 The honor coveted by all police of- ticers will go to Schwartz because he aided in the capture of bandit and the cornering of another who ended the pursuit by taking his own life.
 The two bandits were running through cross street between Wi,- liam street and Broadway after an unsuccessful attempt to hold up a shopkeeper. Both men carried re- volvers and were taking occasional shots at crowd of officers, men and boys pursuing them.
 Schwartz swung down from his ice wagon and tried to intercept the ban. dits, A bullet from one of their re- vovers slit Schwartzs right ear; an- other hit hin m the leg. But he had created a diversion and the pursuers closed in and made it impossible for the man to escape.
 "Schwartz's act was a brave one" Police Chief Burfeind said. s"If more citizens realized their duty and came to the aid of police officers in emer- gencies, as Schwartz did, there would be fewer reports of successful hold. ups"

 to Madge Wiring From Her

Tho Words of Advice Katie's Loyalt!
 to Madge Wiring From Her
 Katie's query as to whether o not I meant to take Junior with mo was like a knife thrust. But ther' are times when one's emotional depths are so stirred that nothing matters save the particular ohsessing reaction which has seized ono.
 If there had been question Of my little lads physical welfare l know that I would have been turned back from my purpose Of going away from my home. But with his grandmother and Katie and Jim on the job, knew that he would lack no care which even I could give him, and he was too young to grieve at my ab- sence when all his other surroundings were his accustomed ones. Another sentence, not Dicky's this time flashed itself into my remembrance.
 If only it were feasible for you to 70 away for a while, we wouldn't have to worry about the place here" Lillian had said upon the night of my arrival home, for with you and your father gone there would be no interest here for either their private schemes of vengeance or their big plot The farmhouse would be as safe as a church for Junior and the rest"
 The words were both comfort to me and justification for my action. My father already gone, the only scruple I could have had against my flight was removed by the rcmem- brance of my friends words. My small son for little while would be safer without me than with me, and I would have leisure to think out my future plan of life.
 Katie Obeys Madge
 But I summoned all my resolution for the parting with him, and em- ployed the time while waiting for him in scribbling hasty note for Lillian, and the writing of single line on a paper which I enclosed in a sealed envelope with katies name written upon it. When my little maid came back, a reluctant Junior trailing be- hind her. spoke crisply. quickly:
 lulo" cH sohi oia Nout, iuiShis, Katie. and you and Junior get in the car. I'll let you out at the corner of the pasture, and you can walk back. Quickly now
 The habit of implicit obedience to me strong upon her, Katie wasted no time in questioning, but snatched Junior up in her arms, and with quick, subconscious housewifcly re- mova of a kettle to the back of the stove, went out of the door and climbed into the car
 I followed her, and mounting to the seat behind the wheel. turned my switch key and sent the car down the drive t6 the road. Purposely I drove at my usual pace. knowing that Dicky or anyone else would suspect nothing seeing me driving the car bareheaded, with Junior and Katie in the tonneau. for they frequently accompanied me on errands.
 At the pasture bars stopped, and turned to Katie.
