will find another maid in day or two. l prefer she should do nothing to as- sist you today. Mir. Hyde and myself will both be out to dinner. I hope I may get you a more accommodating assistant than Martha"
 Il hopes so, too, beggin' yOnr pardon, ma am. She ain't been very good com pany."
 It wasn ot as company for the cook that Martha had been hired, but only smiled and after telling her what should like for my luncheon left the kitchen. But not before she said:
 ''Beggin' your pardon again, ma am, but there was outlets sent in for lunch."-
 "I am not hungry for outlets. Make me an omelette. And Anna will be down, so have her luncheon ready at the same time." I would have her with me at luncheon, whenever was at home. She was so cunning now, prattled so quaintly of things which caught her interest that she was real company for me.
 "Yes, ma'am." I liked cook and hoped she would remain. But l had made up my mind that she too would have to go if she refused to take her orders from me.
 Anna and I had the jolliest kind of luncheon. Nancy waited upon us in lieu of Martha, who was sulking ins the kitchen, berating me, I had no doubt. Afterward, while Anna was taking her nap, I sat down and wrote to my sister Elsa. I wrote her a long letter, saying little of my own affairs. but telling of Anna, and sending a picture of her had had taken a short time before. told her how pleased I was that fa- ther and mother had been remembered so nicely and quoted some of the things mother had told he in her last letter.
 Then, after Anna awoke, l took her out with me and we posted the letter. Then we walked in the park. That is, I did and pushed Anna in her go-cart most of the time, although occasionally she would get out and walk sedately beside me. for few steps or scamper away for a bit only to hurry back and catch my skirts. She was a timid, ner- vous child. l know now she could be nothing else because of the timidity 1 felt because of Manville before she was born. Hers was timidity born in her, an inheritance. I must do all I could to undo what l so unknowingly had done. But it would take both time and great patience. I had plenty of both-to give Anna.

to go to the christening of his new grandchild."
 Well, then, let Katie do them"
 "Tm sorry that I can't ask Katie to do it, answered Miss Belinda. Katie is in the midst of tanning about a bushel of strawberries. I fear you'll have to do them yourself, Ben"
 Noting of the kind, sis. Howe and I are off for the golf course Un- less, Howe, you are specially fond of cleaning fish"
 T never had a chance to acquire the taste in my youth and think it's too late in life to take it up now"
 Quite so," laughed Ben. "Oh, well, we. don't have to eat them. We had the fun of catching them. Let some them. I'll leave them at the Thoms as the ThOms."
 "Yes," agreed Miss Belinda, neither Mrs. ThOm nor Meg ever fish"
 Miss Belinda, dainty and sweet in her delicate pink linen frock smiled at her brother and his friend when they came home late in the afternoon, tired and hot, from the golf course. You chaps will have to have your swim and dress in haste" she said. I'm par ticularly anxious for you not to be late to dinner"
 "Unexpected company" groaned Ben.
 No, but I do wish you to be on time. Katie will be disappointed if dinner is kept waiting. She has had hard day and she has tried to pre- pare us an especially good meal for tonight"
 We shall report promtly, Miss Be linda" promised Howe, and just as Katie announced dinner the two men appeared in pristine white flannels, a

CHAPTER R7

CHAPTER e DEYOND a curt good morning" ID Manville did not speak to me all
 through breakfast. I pretended not to notice and read my paper as as siduously as he did his, a thing un- usual for me. I liked to chat at break fast, then read the paper after Man vile left for the office.
 II shall not be at home to dinner" he said as he put on his coat.
 S"Very well," I think by his. express sion he rather expected r would beg him to come home. He looked a bit surprised and also amazed.
 Just as soon as he had gone l called June.
 Invite me over to dinner, June. That is, unless you are going out or are having guests. Manville is staying out and I shall be all alone"
 Do come. l shall be delighted to have you."
 I was very busy all day. Aside from leaving the bed in the room, l had ta- ken back most of my belongings. The room Aunt Cynthia had occupied looked much as it had before she came. l had intended to have the bed taken down and my chaise lounge brought back. But the incident of the night just passed made me change my mind. I would leave the bed-I might need it again. I had fresh curtains hung there and in the nursery. When I gave some unusual order to Martha she sulked, and for a moment I thought she was going to refuse to obey. Later in the day she did-point blank.
 You put too much work on us, any way" she said sulkily. Even your own relatives say so." I knew she had reference to Aunt Cynthia. Tt ain't my work anyway"
 Do as Itell you or go"
 You are getting pretty high and mighty all at once! I'll not go till I get ready, not by your say-so."
 For a moment I was aghast. Had undertaken more than I could manage? :? No, I decided, had said I would be boss in my own house and I would be or leave it.
 ''You will leave my employ at once"
 "I ain't in your employ as you call it." she sneered. ''I ain't seen as you have done any of the ordering since I have been here. l guess l ain't going to pay an yattention to you now. I'll just wait until MT. Hyde comes home and see what he says. He hired me. He will have to discharge me-"
 I walked past her into the kitchen.
 Cook, have discharged Martha. l

 this way and that way with his nose to the ground, and all the time without seeming to do so he was getting nearer and nearer to Granny Fox. If Gran ny noticed it she did't mind She knew that when he got near enough to kew that when he got near enough to be dangerous she could set out of his reach with q couple of bounds, and to move before she had to would be to lead Blacky the Crow to think that she was afraid, and this would never do.
 Now, what was in Digger's head I don't know. It may be that he had it in mind to get near enough to Granny to run at her and show Blacky that she was afraid of him. What ever he was planning to do never will be known, for not far from where Granny was sit ting he made discovery. It was what he had been looking fora bum ble-bee's nest. Digger looked at old Granny Fox, who promptly turned her back on him. Then he chuckled and there was gleam of mischief in his eyes. He took one more look at old Granny Fox and then pulled open that nest and greedily ate the honey.
 Of course, those bees came pouring out mad clear through: They did their best to sting Digger. but his thick skin and coat protected him so that he didn't mind them a bit. Then some of them saw Granny Fox and in less time than it takes to tell it they were all about her and all over her. With a yell Granny started for home, and the last Blacky and Digger saw of her she was running as if the ground burned her feet.

little flushed and futtered, but hungry and good-humored
 "Ye gods and little fishes; where did you get. them?" exclaimed Ben, as Katie set a delectable looking platter before him. By love, they're appetiz- ing. But where"
 I've owe these fish to the enterprise of you gentlemen" interrupted Miss Belinda, laughing. "If you hadn't risen early this morning and gone out with your rods we might have had some thing as a prosaic as roast beef or pork chops for dinner. Indeed, there was a roast in the oven when these came"
 Who brought them, sis? Surely the ThOms didn't send them back? They seemed awfully pleased to get them"
 ''No, they didn't send them back di- rectly. I was hOeing my snap-dragon bed when one of the Waterhouse chil- dren came with four handsome black bass in a basket with ice. She said her mother had sent them to us because she heard we had a guest at Hilltop and she thought they would be nice treat"
 "They certainly are," reparked Howe
 q asked who caught them" con- tinued Miss Belinda, "and she said she didn't know. She said that the Bur: linghams gave them to them and that Peter Birmingham said somebody had given them to them, but he didn't feel like cleaning fish on such a good day for golf"
 My word, I'll bet they have been all around the lake" said Ben, grinning.
 I'm sure of it." agreed Miss Belin. da. You started them east and they came in from the west"
 Who cleaned them?" asked Been, looking searchingly at his sister. Be linda, you did it r'
 Well, somebody had to do it, broth er."
 Well, somebody won't have to do it very soon again." declared Ben.

The Raggedys and the hobby horse were too surprised to speak, so they just remained very quiet. T suppose you thought I did not have any magic charms in my pocket, didn't you?" she asked.
 No, sir! We didn't!" Raggedy An dy said, i've just hoped that you would return to your own home and let us go in search of adventures. We do not like for you to bother us as you have been doing!"
 Well, Mister Raggedy Andy" the witch said, with chuckily laugh, 1T just guess I shall not return to my own home until you tell me what you have done with the two magic books ! I want both of them so that I can make a whole lot of magical things for myself!"
 Then we shall not tell you, Missus Minga, the witch!' Raggedy Andy re- piled.

IN THIS LAND or WONDERS

Asgigantie bridge has been planned to cross the famous Golden Gate at the entrance to San Francisco harbof, q distance of over a mile and hslf. In order that liners and other vessels may pass underneath, the center span will be two hundred feet above the water, while at either end will be steel towers rising to a height of $50 feet.
 Over this huge structure will run a double street car track, a wide motor road. and two sidewalks. for pedestri- ans. At the top of the great steel tow CTS it is proposed to build platforms from which visitors will be able to ob- tain marvellous view of San Francisco and the mighty Atlantic-Answers. London.

Tt did me too!' the hobby horse said as he ran along.
 Me tool" Raggedy Andy said as he held Raggedy Ann tightly so she would not bounce off into the bushes.
 In a very short time the magical hobby horse came to a lovely ice cream soda water spring "Whoa!" he cried to himself as he came to a stop, "here we are!"
 ''I guess now we have left old Minga, the witch, way behind!" Raggedy Andy laughed as he dipped up an ice cream soda for Raggedy Ann.
 ''Ha, ha, ha v a laugh came from across the spring. You guess so, do you? Well, Mister Raggedy Andy, I just guess that you are very much mis- taken" and Minga, the witch, got up from the bushes where she had sbeen hiding and came walking around the soda water spring.

"We shall see about that v the witch howled in her very loudest voice as she got out a whole lot of magical charms and prepared to work magic. T shall magic you so that you cannot run, and then I shall magic you so that you will tell me just where the magic books are hidden" Raggedy Andy did not wait to hear more. With a leap he dashed by old Minga, giving her a push as he went, then catching Raggedy Ann by the waist, he swung her upon the back of the hobby horse. Then, as the mean old witch scrambled to get out of the cold ice cream soda spring, Raggedy Andy swung up behind Raggedy Ann and the magical wooden hobby horse sped away through the forest as fast as his legs could carry him.
 "Ha, ha v the Raggedys laughed. "catch us if you can, Minga, the witch 7"

Flat Crepe Used For Summer ;.
 IH Frocks

ENLAT CREPE is being extensively
 used for summer frocks of the
 type that require an element of practicality yet are. worn on dress-up occasions. In short the sort of frocks which because of their being rich and elegant, yet plain and more or less tailored rather than dainty, can adapt themselves to almost every occasion of a day.
 could offer no better example of such a type of frock than one which includes resourceful little cape. It is eminently suited to flat crepe, although a lightweight woolen texture would be good medium for wear at noun tain resort or at the seashore, where a stroll on the boardwalk always re- quires an outside covering of some sort.
 The delightful part of this costume is that, although the cape is separate and removable. when adjusted it be- comes an integral part of the frock. This is by reason of it's unique june tion with the belt, into which it is gathered across the back after being slashed up ways. Thus the belt is removed with the cape and the frock becomes a beltless model. Its round neck is cut out to introduce tiny point of contrasting color in the man ner seen on the skirt and the short sleeves also repeat this feature with the point at the back. A white costume could have any color as trimming, while a colored costume could choose white with exceeding effectiveness. The cape could be lined with white in either instance, while the band trimming could be piped with the contrasting color.
 Tie hat worn with a costume like this has considerable to do with it's success, and so have designed this chic model which graciously repeats the pointed introduction of contrasting fabric by soft drapings of silk which matches, the frock, being laid over a plain lower section.

LAST PEEP FOR HIM

There was a vacancy in a certain Scottish kirk and the congregation was nearing the candidates, each of whom took the services for Sunday. : One of them was young man, ob- viously very full of his own importance. After he had delivered his sermon. he waited until the kirk emptied. Then he took a long look around, while the beadle, anxious to get away, waited im- patiently.

Circulating Fish

 "They're beauties, poor dears," said Miss Belinda.
 My sister is almost as tender of the fish in our lake as she is of the birds in our woods, Howe" remarked Ben, laughing. But I notice that when they appear delicately fried on our table she eats her share"
 Of course do, as long as their lives have already been sacrificed, but never wish anybody to catch any fish especially for me. I'd rather"
 Yes, my dear, I know very well, you'd rather see them swimming in the water than in grease. Will you have your man Friday clean these fine fel- lows for dinner, please?"

Making Bed.MAking Easy IVAN you make bed? VA Most women make beds all

their lives.
 But have you ever watched the aver age woman make a bed ?-
 She walks around it every time shs adjusts a sheet or blanket, makes prodigiousA effort of turning the mat tress, and often complains of having strained her back as a result.
 She may tell you, too, that she can't bear bed-making. She gets So tired of making beds and washing dishes that she just wishes she could run away some place and never come back.
 Perhaps she has learned to save her. self in making her beds.
 The average woman would be sur. prised if she counted the steps she takes in bed-making to learn that she walks many times further than is necessary.
 And most women have four or five beds to make every day.
 Then, too, there is the matter of making q bed with some one in it. when sorne one is ill and feeling too ill and weak to get up. The bed may be sadly an need of re-making. Yet many women will stand helplessly by and smooth the counterpane or twitch at the pillows without having the vaguest notion about making the bed comfortable without getting the sick person up in a chair. <
 In making an unoccupied bed, do you l take your clean sheet and pillow-sliT (assuming that it is the day to change them) with you when you approach the bed, or do you have to run back to the linen shelf for them?
 Collecting your linen first is one step toward saving yourself steps. Are your beds properly aired? Do you turn them back when you step out of them to sun Gld air while you are preparing breakfast? It is the ideal way.
 Do you turn your mattresses ire quently? It saves them and makes the bed feel softer
 After stripping q bed and spreading the sheets and blankets over chairs, well off the floor, turn the mattress from top to bottom and let it rest on its ends on the springs. Thus it may air freely. Mattresses turned con- stantly from side to side bear the heav- jest part of the body and become dented sooner than if turned from end to end.
 Always protect your mattress with a washable cover. An old blanket or a folded flannelette sheet that is worn too thin for covering purposes may be folded into a soft pad to place on top of the protector beneath the lower sheet.
 If for any reason you have to have a rubber sheet on the bed, stitch a width of coarse cotton or ticking on each side of it, that you may tuck it in under the mattress and keep it from wrinkling when it is lain upon.
 If the sheets are put on the bed per fectly straight they are less likely to wrinkle.
 Stand on one side of the bed the en- tire time you are making it, doing all your tucking in of sheets and blankets on one side and at both ends as far

The magical wooden hobby horse carried the Raggedys lickety split down the patE through the deep, deep woods, leaving mean old Minga, the witch, to howl as loudly as she wished beside the wild fudge pot where she had clutched the hot chocolate fudge.
 "She thought we had hidden the two magical books some where along the way '" the hobby horse said. "She did not even guess that Raggedy Ann had made the magic books small and that she had one in her aDrOn Docket and Raggedy Andy had the other in his pants pocket !"
 The R a gg e d y s laughed when they thought how easily they had fooled the wicked old witch.

 When your bed is practically made on one side, go around to the other side and tuck in the sheets and blank. cts. Adjust your spread at the same them in place. And the bed is made.
