Just as the old woman reached her front porch with Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy, the loud howls of the three fierce wild Cougars could be heard in the distance. Rag gedy Andy wiggled his shoe button eye at Raggedy Ann and said.
 You'd better let us go, or our friends, the three fierce wild Cougars will come and tear down your house."
 "Ha", the old woman cried, q shall fool your friends when they come. l will lock you in an old iron trunk and hide the key up in the clock. They will never find it. Then after the three fierce, wild Cougars leave, I will take you out and pun isl you,"
 This pleased the Raggcdys, for they heard the Cougars getting closer and closer. So the old woman locked them in the iron trunk and hid the key. so, when the three fierce wild Cougars came, they could not find The key anywhere. But then, they didn't know about the key any way,
 "Anyway.." Charlie Cougar cried 10 his brottors, We will sit here and watch inc house, for we knJvr the Raggcdys are inside somewhere, even if the old woman does tell us differently"

 Glory sat down behind the wheel. The soft springy seats were covered with blue leather. And on the dash was a tiny clock set in dark blue enamel.

It's the !cutest thing in the world and it would keep your Glory so snug and warm these wintry days. l could even go to market in it every morning, and bring my vegetables and meats hom" in it."
 That touch about the markets was an inspiration, she knew. For Dick loved the idea of her being a house. wife picking out her own strawberries and rump-roasts in the markets, and bringing them home.
 "I want that telephone stock, for you but there is one way l can buy you the automobile" he said finally.

LETTER FROM JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT TO MRS. MARY
 ALDEN PRESCOTT

Dear Mother: 1 have not heard from you directly for a long time, consequently l am thinking that no news is good news and you are woll and happy,
 Atlantic City at this time Of year Is most delightful, especially if one is nicely situated in first-class hotel anticipate you are enjoying your stay, as have just received the bill of $500 from the manage ment for the last months board and room rent for yourself and nurse Added 10 this, Miss Anderson has sent me bills for $500 more.
 Don't think that l am counting the cost because when l began on by very large salary l determined in my own mind that I would make you as happy as possible and not worry much about tho expense. However, l will have to ask you to keep your expenditures within sl5,000 year. That being almost a third of my salary, l think is q liberal division for you
 Of course, l expect that your OK pcnses will not be as much after you leave Atlantic City. which l presume will be shortly, as Miss Anderson tells mo that your health is fully recovered.
 It is good thing, mother, that am getting that wonderful salary for I find that all my expenses have doubled again and again, and my pride will not allow me 10 take any of Leslie's income for the actua support of my wife and children Of course I know that she is spend. ing a great deal of her money or

 Drawing the upper lid down over the lower lid sometimes proves ef- fective.
 For particles of dust, or cinders in the eye, try flaxseed if other at- tempts fail.
 Place few grains, two or three, in outer corner of the eye.

the rehabilitation of her old home, and that is her privilege if she wishes to do so.
 By the way, friend of mine has been in Atlantic City for the last few weeks and he tells me that he has seen you constantly going about with a very good-looking man, and you seem much interested in each other.
 presume that no son ever ex- poets his mother to be interested In any man To him she is something entirely different from any other woman. To him she should be con- tent with her little household affairs for, of course,to him the fact that she might have a friendship with person of the opposite sex, always must seem ridiculous.
 have no inclination 10 pry Into your affairs, my dear mother, but perhaps 1t would be as we'll for you to tell any admirer that you may have that the income which makes it possible for you to live in such magniicence at the smartest hotel in Atlantic City would cease if you should marry.
 Certainly l have no objections to your being happy and comfortable in your own way, but l must posi- lively decline to take care of any strange man who might be marrying you under the misapprehension that you were a wealthy woman.
 Perhaps the best thing for you to do would be to tell MT What's-His- Name that you have beautiful old house in a lovely old New England town and an income of s200 month. That would be a test, wouldn't it? , (Copyright. 1925, NEA Service, Inc.)

The Startling Question Which Dicky

My first glance at Dicky's face when l came out on the lawn in re- sponse to his call and Juniors showed mo that his small sons un- conscious wiles had produced the effect l wished, Always volatile in temperament, his color had not been proof against inc wild welcome which Junior had accorded him, and 1t was almost his usual self which camc rapidly 10 meet me,
 It's sure good to be home," he exclaimed, settling our boy more firmly on his shoulder, and holding him there with one arm, while he settled the other about my waist, "Come on, let's take a walk up the hill.'
 The proposal tempted me soroly for the hill behind the farmhouse was one of our favorite pilgrimagcs It was a fairly stilrish climb 10 its summit, crowned with oak trees. From it farmstcads, woodland and meadows dipped away in a wonder full view, and upon clear day one could see the ocean and the sails of the fishing smacks four miles dis tant.

There, in the heat of midsummer we picked the hucllleberries and blackbcrrics which Katie transformed into Cui- nary miracles. And there. ill the late fall. we were always sure 10 find a belatcd wild aster for our plucking.

In escaping from three fierce wild cougars, a person must be able 10 run very fast, for fierce, wild cougars can run as fast as almost anything. i So, Raggcdy Ann and Raggedy An i dy had 10 catch hold of Granny Hoppytoad's hands and help him run, Granny Hoppytoad was very old and quite fat and he could not run very fast.
 And even when the Raggedys al most carried Granny Hoppytoad, he grew tired and begged the Raggedy3 to stop and rest. But if we stop and rest, the three fierce wild cougars will catch up with us, and you know they wish to make beef stew out of us"

 Don't you believe it, Granny Hoppytoad," Raggcdy Ann said as she pushed aside the bushes and motioned for Eaggcdy Andy and Granny IIoppytoad to follow her. "Whocvcr told you you could lose your brcath and have to run back after it, Grampyo"
 Nobody" Granny Hoppytoad rvplied, But just thought that was what happened!" Raggcdy Ann and Raggody Andy and Granny Hoppy- toad walked through the bushes and came 10 a patch of Lickie Sticks, These grew in the ground just like asparagus shoots and were about four inches high.
 The Iickie Sticks were different colored candies and all grew in nal rows just as if they had been plant ed
