Uncle Wiggily stepped quietly out
of his hollow stump bngalow one
morning. He looked behind him.
He looked in front of him, and he
looked to the right and he looked
to the left. Then the bunny rabbit
gentleman said:

had saved them . day, pay!
AS the three Brooches retired once
more from the scene, there was
something like approval in the eyes
of the efficiency man, as their glance
followed the central figure in the
group. He admired good business.
Matilda Araminta Jones was a per
son with an obsession. The obsession
was Constance Brooke. Matilda came
from New England, which signifies
that the obsession was of the most
virulent type. 1t extended not only
to Constance, but to all things over
which Constance exercised dominion.
Therefore it included Demosthenes.
And Matilda, who was Constancc's
maid, saw Demosthenes held at arms
length by the scruff of his neck,
she went forth to battle.
Demosthenes was Pomeranian
philosopher who enioyed the distinc-
ton of being the personal property
of the chatelaine of the Brooke man
sion. But he was not in philosophic
mood when H. Hedge stepped on him
in the library and thereby made the
discovery that he was an inmate of
the house. He was even less philo-
sophie when he launched four pounds
of FACILITATING dog flesh at the heels
of economy and efficiency, in re-
taliation for having been used as a
rug.
H. Hedge, being quick with his
hands laid hold of Demosthens with
little or no delay, and removed him
from the vicinity of his heels. He
shook him quite roughly, and was
still shaking him when Matilda enter
ed the room.
stop" said Matilda tragically.
H. Hedge stopped the shaking
process, but still held Demosthenes
pendant and scruff.
"Put him down" commanded Ma
tilda.
"What is it," asked the efficiency
man surveying the struggling Phil
osopher.
"It?" repeated Matilda in an aw-
full voice. at! That is Miss Comics
dogr
really a dog?"
Matilda choked. In her soul she
prayed that Demosthenes might not
hear the insult.
Put him DOWN. she commanded.
81 think not" remarked Il. Hedge
calmly. "He wants to bite me. And.
whether he is dog or rat, do not
care to be bitten. | think / shall
dispose of him."
Matilda turned pale. Demsothenes
was to be disposed of! Some horror
was afoot. She fled from the library
and sought her mistress upstairs.
HE is killing Demosthenesw cried
Matilda.
Constance waited for no more, She
raced downstairs, two steps at a
time, sure-footed as a mountain-goat
yet apparently risking her neck at
every stride. The efficiency man still
had the small black creature at
arms length when she appeared on
the scene.
