LETTER FROM RUTH BURKE TO
LESLIE PRESCOTT,
CnNTINIJEn

Miss Anderson said she really felt
sorry for Priscilla Bradford, Leslie,
when your mother-in-law seemed to
repudiate all responsibility for her
room rent. Although she knew all
the trouble that old maid had caus-
ed, she realized she was alppe, and
that fifty dollars meant gfeat deal
to hks. !
cas-, she said she had been around
many men and women, in her nurs-
ing experience, who had prided
themselves on their Puritan ances-
try, and one of the outstanding
characteristics which they all had
in common was their horror of debt.
"Of course" she said, 81 knew
Miss Bradford must have some
money, because she spends so little,
and l had heard Mrs. Prescott say
she had been left quite comfortable;
but it did not keep her from almost
heartbreaking worry to have to dip
into her savings and pay this bill,
which l. am sure is more for a room
than; she has ever paid before in her
life, ,for the same number of weeks,
let alone days.
"Mrs. Prescott did not fail to call
dear Priscilla's' attention that it
was only room rent she was sup
posed to pay, as all meals for the
three of us had been charged on her

much"
Anyway, Miss Anderson worked
on my sympathies to such an extent
that l paid the bill and charged it
to your account with the shop.
Miss Bradford left without bidding
your mother goodby, and so, my
dear, that's that. You are safe from
her for a while, at least.

Europeans now present in Minute
had cOngregated at the landing stage
to greet Colonel Roosevelt on his ar
rival.
Presently, round bend in the wide
river, appeared the steam launch
flying the big American flag at the
bow. 1t was towing the two sailing
boats, which were full of porters and
baggage. Colonel Roosevelt and Ker-
NIT had Travelled in the launch, and
so had Cunninghame; while the three
naturalists were in a sailing boat.
Everyone looked most wonderfully
we'll, especially the two Roosevelts.
Mearns and Heller had both grown
handsome boards, and looked as hard
as nails. kermit's beard was max
ing good progress, and he had now
adopted the East African custom of
wearing short khaki trousers, leav-
ing the knees bare ~
Their arrival was greeted with loud
cheering from the small European
community, temporarily resident at
Minute. After chatting with every
one at the landing stage for few
minutes, Colonel Roosevelt, Kermit
and myself walked over to the camp,
where some comfortable grass houses
had been erected for their accommo-
dation. -. ..-...
81 am really very delighted with
the results of my hunting in the
Congo he remarked, enthusiasticai-
ly. Both from a scientific and
sporting point of view, nothing could
have been better. We got II white
rhinos, as well as buffalo and other
game.
Some of the crocodiles were very
interesting, too. Kermit managed to
get some wonderfully good pictures
of cow and calf white rhino stand
ing under tree. Then he killed the
COW, and the calf would not go away.
Kermit and Grogan pelted it with
sticks and clods of earth, but it
wouldn't desert its dead mother.
| Finally, he had to fire his rifle in
| it's direction to scare it; and then it
went off in frantic haste"
"How many white rhino did yoa
see, Colonel?"
Some so or 40, altogether. We
| found the flesh of the rhino excel
lent eating, especially their humps.
Kermit saw 10. rhino in one group

"How about your health, Colonel?"
"Well, Kermit and l have both
| been well; but the others have all
| had fever, touches of the sun and
some dysentery. One of the gun
bearers died of fever"
"And four of your porters died of
dysentery between Koba and here,'
| l added.
81 am very sorry to hear that" he
! replied sorrowfully. "They are fine
fellows, these porters!"
Next day was a very busy one IN
the Roosevelt camp, for everyone was
fully engaged upon the giant prepa-
ration for the march along the banks
of the Nile to Gondokoro. Colonel

There was a huge mail waiting for

ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

The Twins held tight to Snoozle
on the night mares back.
SnOoZle was the Oldest son of the
Dream Maker Man and he was
searching for Tweekanose who had
stolen the sleepy sand from the
Sand Man.
"Giddap!" said Snoozle, and the
white nightmare went club-a-lub,
club Tub, club-a-lub along the
Milky Way straight toward Mars.
And pretty soon they got there
and knocked at the gate. Rat-a-tat.
tat! Rat-a-tat-tat!
who's there?" asked an old man
with a green beard and blue hair
and a nose like cucumber, full Of
bumps and ridges and very, very
long. He was first cousin to the
Moon Man, but nobody would have
known it, he being SO queer n all.
But then all the people of Mars
were queer and not two were alike.
who's there?" asked the old man
sticking his head out of window in
the stone wall beside the gate.
u.s." said Nancy. Did Tweeka-
nose the gnome come here with Il
sack of sand?"
"No'm," said the old man.
That's what said,' declared
Nancy impatiently. Hes gnome
and he's rascal, too. Did you see
him."
"No'm," said the queer old fellow
again with shake of his head.
"Leastways l didn't see him. But
then I've been asleep. On Mars
everybody sleeps while he works and
all the guards sleep on duty. AS
am on duty ninetyone hours every
day, sleep most of the time. If he
was good climber he could get
over the wall and wouldn't see him.
He may be on Mars and then again
he may not be on Mars, and if he is
on Mars L"
"My goodness" what wordy old
fellow!" said Nick to Snoozle. "I'll
fix him." SO he said "lminy Jim
iny!" just like that and the door in
the wall swung open and the night
mare clattered through, before the
astonished cousin of the Moon Man
got half way through with his POM
pous speech.
1t was getting dark on Mars and
all the people in all the houses were
blowing out their lights. Because on
Mars things are just the opposite Of
what they are any place else.
"That's as it should be-" said
Snoozle. dad always taught US to
work in the dark. I've got eyes like
cat so l can see finely. There's a
barrel over there. Let's peep in.
Perhaps Tweekanose is inside"
So they went over and looked in
side the barrel.
But it was only full OF diamonds,
nothing else, as all the people dump
ed their jewels out on the street in
the evening and took the ashes in
side.
All because nothing was the same
on Mars.
Next they looked into an old tum-
BILE down house for the bad little
gnome.
But alas! 1t was only full of fur
n.ture as the people had moved out
They looked everywhere and finally
Snoozle said, Eve must go back to
the Moon. He's not here"
