It would be best to let her cry, wash away some of the bitter ness before Mort come home.
 The other twO-Mona and Donald they would soon know. My heart ached for them, fearing what they might have to endure from their young friends. Children are often cruel; I would bring them home at once if Mort would agree. Mona was nearly finished, had but a few months before she would be graduated, and Donald could be sent to some other, less ex- pensive school where he was not known.

 She had bought a paper on the train and seen the article telling of MOrt's arrest. She was pale and could scarcely speak. The paper she clutched in her hand told me she knew, and waited. What would she say?
 "Where's-father? she demanded, not using the familiar dad" she al- ways did. "Is he--in jail?"
 'No, dear," I answered calmly, my child's need bracing me to meet it. Uncle Clifford bailed him."
 ".:It is dreadful, mother! How can you be so calm? No one will have anything to do with us-a bootlegger !! why didn't you tell me?' Her voice was shrill, full of pain and anger.

If he were cofnered and couldn't run he. would fight as bravely as the bravest, but he is firm be liever in the old staying that he who runs away will live to fight another day when man is concerned.
 The instant he heard that wild yell he forgot everything but that he was caught in a bad fix. He was caught up a tree and that was no place for a bear to be with a man about, even though that man were only boy. He lost all interest in honey. He>had but one thought, and that was to get away from there as quickly as ever he could. To climb down would take too long. So Buster just simply let go and drop ped. Yes, sir, that is what Buster Bear did, he let go and dropped. Busters bones are not like other bones. They are not brittle and easily broken. The branches below broke his fall somewhat, and he broke the branches. Down he came to the ground with a thump that would have knocked the wind from any one but Buster Bear. And the instant he touched the ground he rushed away through the Green Forest as if the Old Nick were at his heels.
 Sammy Jay and Drummer the Wood becker saw it all, Farmer Browns boy running for all he was worth in one direction, stumbling as he ran, and slap ping at angry bees, and Buster Bear tearing off in the opposite direction with little whimper of fright with every jump, his face and coat all smear ed with honey, and dirt and leaves stick ing all over him. It was 50 funny that they laughed until they almost made themselves sick.
 But Busy Bee and her fellow work CTS wasted no time chasing either Farmer Browns boy or Buster Bear. They promptly fell to work to save what honey was left and take it to an other storehouse which they knew of.

Look Ahead For Costumes Of
 u [ ure
By JANET WINSLOW

ZANE would think that the end of
 the world had been predicted for
 some time between now and next summer, making the light summer wrap totally unnecessary. They are priced at about One-half in the end of the season sales and the thrifty woman would do well to use her fore sight in acquiring one. If one has the courage to buy things out of season, a substantial saving is effected and this is especially true of coats and capes.
 Take the one-piece flannel coat--the white flannel coat in particular. Many women are never without a white coat in one material or another. Sometimes it is flannel, other seasons it is in rough material but they have found its worth and when one wears out they promptly acquire another. There are many of these typical little coats of proven utility and charm among those offered at the sales.
 The ridged fabrics with waffle de- signs on the surface have been worn a great deal this summer, their pou- larity having continued from the win ter season. Unless there is a sudden
  tive material, it is quite possible that coat made of it will look smart and not out-of-date next season.
 Then there are pleated, capes made of soft silks in neutral tones such as beige and grey which might be safe choice for the wrap bought out of sea son. Summer ermine and squirrel collars are not the least of their at- fractions. Without fur trimmings they are much less expensive and If you have luxurious fox scarf to twine about your throat the ensemble is fin .. ished in appearance and smart to the last detail.
 Knitted coats have been proclaimed quite the newest of all coat ideas this summer. They look very much like fabric coats at first glance, but have the virtue of shaking off wrinkles as easily as some people shake off trou- bles. These coats have fur collars in many cases. Some of the patterns are reminiscent of Indian blankets and make use of the same rich brown and black tones which make the primitive crafts of the Indians so attractive. If yo uare fortunate enough to find a coat of this description among the bargains you may consider it a find"

afraid Mort would be killed, or-kill someone. Ever since knew he carried revolver I haven't had a moments peace, have scarcely slept. Every time I would read of fight between revenue officers and bootleggers, or between the bootleggers and those terrible men they call hi-jacks, I have been nearly crazy with fear.

 Dorian comforted me, while she scold- ed me for not telling her.

Hearts of T,Co
CHAPTER 2O5

GLEARLY, and in few concise sem tences Tom Crosby told Marian
 that he and his wife wished their children to take dancing lessons. A number of their friends also had chil- dren for whom they were seeking a good dancing teacher. One of these friends had offered her ballroom as a place where lessons could be given. The expense of a studio or dance hall would thus be spared.
 "We were talking this over with Frederic Parker-whom you know some weeks ago, and he wondered if there would be any chance of your be- ingewilling to consider conducting such a Class as we are planning. You need not answer now-but, if you would consider it, we could then make you a proposition"
 Marian drew a long breath. This was "the card" that Frederic Parker had "up his sleeve" He did not want to mention it until he had given her g chance to try out the position of which he had first spoken to her. How good he was--how-
 She started guiltily. Her thoughts were rushing along at such rate that
 
 pIe were waiting for her to make some comment on what had just been told her.
 ,TAI-cannot say all I feel and think !' she stammered truthfully enough. You, who do not know me trust me enough to suggest my teaching your children and introducing me to the parents of other children-why-it is SO wonderful that l do not know what to say! !"
 Don't try to say anything yet" Con- stance advised. Tt would not be fair to expect you to decide the matter i'm mediately. If you would rather con- tinue in the work you are at now, we will not be hurt-and it will be all right"
 "Ohw Marian exclaimed. "I certain ly would not rather-yOu do not know you cannot know-that what you propose is like opening a window into the pure, fresh air. am only doubt ing if 1 am competent-if l ought to let you give me this position-if-"
 She got no further, for at that instant the portieres over the door were pushed aside and Frederic Parker stood on the threshold.
 May come right in?" he asked.
 As he saw Marian a glad light sprang to his eyes. Then he turned to greet his hosts before addressing their guest. .'Good evening, Miss Horton" he said, holding her hand closely for an instant. This is an unexpected pleas ure"

 of them were above him. He forgot his interest in Buster Bear. In fact, he forgot all about Buster Bear. He had but one thought, and this was that he couldn't get away from that place quick enough. It had suddenly become altogether too hot place for him. He let out yell. Yes, sir, he let out q yell, and 1t was good loud yell. Then he started to get away from there as fast as his legs would take him, and he didn't care how much noise he made in doing it.
 Now Buster Bear had been so greed fly stuffing himself with honey that he had had no thought for anything else. He had no idea that Farmer Browns boy was anywhere near. Usually his ears and his nose are ever ready to warn him of the presence of others, but this time his ears were filled with the angry hum of the bees, and his nose was clogged with honey. So he had not heard Farmer Browns boy ap- proach, and he had not smelled him. Then right into the middle of his en- joyment broke that wild yell He couldn't help hearing that.

"Oh' Some things I really and truly sell" MT. Tunky laughed. There is a real mean old man who comes in here once in a while, and he is so cross and selfish and disagreeable I charge him for whatever he takes away, but just as soon as he leaves I throw his money out the door and I guess poor people who need money find it!''
 Aha heard all that you said about met" the selfish man said as he came stomping in MT. ,Tunky's store. And after this when I wish anything I shall walk right in your store and take it and never pay you even one penny '"
 Dear mel" Raggedy Ann told the selfish man, If you do that it will be just the same as stealing, and that is very wrong!"

The selfish old man did not answer Raggedy Ann; instead he walked right over to the counter and filled lis pock- cts with something. The Raggedys could not see what he put in his pock- cts, but the old man put sixteen things in one pocket.
 Maybe he wishes a policeman to come along and arrest him !' Raggedy Andy told MT. Tunky.
 "Ha! Who's afraid of a policeman when there are no policemen anywhere around to arrest mel" selfish old man said.
 "Why don't you wrestle him and take the things away from him, Mir. Tunky?" Raggedy Andy asked.
 Maybe that would be good plan !" MT. Tunky replied as he rolled up his sleeves. The selfish man rolled up his

sleeves too and rushed at MT. Tunky and the two wrestled ever so hard until MT. Tunky wrestled the old man right out of the little store and made him roll over and over upon the ground. When the old selfish man finally stood upon his feet a strange expression came over his face and he put his hands in his pockets and when he pulled them out again the Raggedys and Mfr. Tunky laughed. Ut serves you just right v for the invisible things the selfish man had taken were eggs and every last one had broken in his pocket and now his clothes were covered.
 Its all your faultT the man cried as he ran away through the woods, And MT. Tunky just laughed and asked the Raggedys inside to have an invisible bottle of cream and strawberry soda.

THE nEATH rTnnK

There is a strange old legend of Hampton Court that when Henry VIII.'s astronomical clock stops some body who has long resided in the pal ace will die.
 This old clock stopped recently. and the old legend was recalled, mostly with skeptical smiles. But a few hours aft. erwards Miss Jane Cuppage, who had long lived at the palace, died.
 There are said to be one or two oth- CT instances within living memory of the clock foretelling a death in the palace.
 The clock stands in the courtyard on. posite the entrance to the state apart ments. It tells thOse who can read it the hour, the month, the day of the month, the position of the sun, the number of days since the beginning of the. year, the phases of the moon, and the time of high water at London bridge.

Mir. Tunky owned a strange tiny store in the deep, deep woods.
 Everything in the store was invisible so that Mir, Tunky could crowd things together. He explained to Rag gedy Ann and Raggedy Andy how it was much easier to crowd invisible things togeth- CT than it was visible things.
 Now, just think how hard it would be to put a barrel of nice red apples in a cigar Dox if the apples were visible p Mir. Tunky said to- the Raggedys. "Yet, when the barrel of apples are invisible 1 can squeeze them all into this little cigar box, then when I wish to make them or any other thing visible, I just take them out and wipe the invisible ness off. with this red cloth !! Isn't that easy 7"
 The R a gg e d y s thought it was very, very easy and told kind MT. Tunky so. And it is so nice that you do not charge for the things you sell, MT Tunky ," Raggedy Ann said.
