 Hello, Steve!" she sighed. How arc you, old boy?" It's nice of you to come and see me die. sympathy's better than money when you've got to take your last call. Oh, my poor side!" '.
 For the fraction of second thu pressure of Inspector Wragge's hand on Mir. Colne's arm was not quite so gentle. but 1t relaxed immediate ly.
 "The lady ought not to lie out here" said the detective with au- thorlty. "How about taking her to that cottage?"
 Seeing as she's my darter that's where I'm going to take her." said John Grimes through his clenched teeth and picking up the limp form as though 1t were a feather he bore 1t In his strong arms toward the red blind at the other end of the clear ing.

How did you happen to become a magician" Raggedy Ann asked the Magician as she and Raggedy Andy and MT. Tuney and Lady Lindy and her little boy Lundy, sat in the wonderful castle of the Magician.
 "I really can hardly tell you, Raggedy Ann." the Magician replied, For l just became a Magician all of a suddcn-like one day when l found a few magic charms"
 What were they" Lady Lindy asked.
 Well! less sec" the Magician unused. There was a cork out of glass bottle, a bent hair pin and a grasshopper's hind leg. Grasshop- pcr's hind legs are very nice magical charms if you happen to find one lying beside bent hdirpin and a glass bottle cork But at any other time grasshoppcrs' legs are not magical at all"
 If anyone should take leg from ia grasshopper, would it be a magic charm 2" little Lundy asked.

LETTER FROM LESTER PRES corr TO THE LITTLE MAR OUISE. CARE THE SECRET
 DRAWER = CONTINUED

Little Marquise. John seemed all mixed up. All his ideas about wo- men had been proven wrong. He had evidently thought that if he could get to me, get his arms about me, the whole episode of which he felt was making too much ado would be plotted out. And the awful part of it is, litle MarQuise, he was right.
 At that very moment I was hat ing myself because I was thinking how glad ] was that I had him once more where l could at least see him.
 My husband is very good to look at, little Marquise. i knew l must hasten on and get the whole thing over if did not want to surrender.
 Jack l said, the trouble be- tween you and me is that we are both too serious. Before we were married we used to laugh lot. We always found something to smile at when we were together.
 Jack, can you remember the time when you and l have laughed hilariousy together? It has been almost year since you and I have danced together and yet you used to say to mo that you would rather dance with mo than anyone else in the world'
 Poor girl" said Jack, "you have been having a hard time of it. Be tween the baby coming and the deaths in your family your days have been filled with pain and grief. I've never seemed 10 realize before what a hard lot women have, Men can get away from all the little things and big things which hurt and grieve a woman. but your sex can not get out from under
 There you go, Jack; you are get ting serious again. If I have my way after tonight, l am going to dance and laugh and wear pretty clothes and probably flirt little"
 Tn other words you are going to make it very serious for me, aren't you?"
 "No, I'm just going to try and make it pleasurable for myself. You know he are going to try and be friends. Jack. l don't think we have ever been friends. We have only been lovers.
 "Yes," I continued catchlng the expression on his face. "You cer- tainly must confess that we've never been very 'pally,' Let's just say we're going to try this friendship business and let it go at that. I it doesn't work, then we'll know we've just made mistake in think ing that we were the two people that Destiny planned for each other
 T always go in to see the boy before I go to bed. Do you wan to come in with me, Jack?"
 My husband. little Marquise, ros so quickly that l knew he was quit ss glad to stop talking az ].
 Together we went in to the room In the apartment that I had se aside as q nursery. II was the frs time that I have ever entered thi room with John Vitho+s Ceiling hi arm about me,

to hear when they are injured, nevertheless. it hurts them just as much a sit would hurt you if the same injury happened to you!"
 Jus tthen the Magician and his friends were startled by hearing a lot of glass crash to the floor and all jumped from their chairs and ran down stairs.
 Why, Mrs. Grundy," Raggedy Ann exclaimed. as she saw the Witch standing in the Magicians kitchen, What have you done"
 T have broken the window and climbed inside" the witch howIcd "Now l shall take my magic charms and work a lot of magic on the Ma gician, for l sec that someone has changed him from puppy dog back into his real shape" And the witch began searching in her dress pockets for her bag of magical charms.
 Why! Where are they?' she cried, T had them just moment ago."
 Maybe you put them in your mouth and swallowed them" Rag gedy Andy said.
 You must never put things in your mouth unless they are things to cat!" Raggedy Ann told the witch.
 "No, I didn't put them in my mouth" the witch said as she sat down upon the floor and wept, fRaggcdy Ann had to give Mrs. Grundy six cream puffs and a doughnut before the witch would stop crying.
 And I did so want 10 work magic on the magician and have his castle all for my very own" the witch sobbed. Raggody Ann whispered to the Magician and he said to her:
 "Wcll, l will try if. Raggedy Ann," So they all went upstairs and the magician read in his mag gic book and got out all of his magic pow. ders. Then they put Mrs. Grundy and the witch in a chair an dtht magician said: "Hokus pokus." and puffed the magic powder on tho witch.
 My goodness" tho witch cried al she opened her eyes and looked around, Where am I?'' And the Raggedys and Mir. Tune! and Lady Lindy and her little bo! Lundy and the magician all danced about and shouted with glee Wheel" and "Hurrah for the magi ' powder."
 For instead Of being as she ha, been. an old wcazcned up creature Mrs. Grundy was a very pretty lady

Just a word of warm ing Mrs. Graham. Look out for him. don't mean that he would, be dangerous. Hos harmless enough, but that combination or sen sittNe resentment and love for a practical joke is bad medicine, especially when tho mind back of it Is youthful and informed"
 I had time for only compre- hending grateful nod, and a brief, Thank you; l shall remember" We rounded the corner of the house and saw Dr. Petit standing upon the front veranda, waiting for us with an impatience which he did not try to conceal,
 "Dr. Medediths tune is extremely valuable" he said pointedly to me. He is an eminent specialist in nerve disorders. He happened 10 be in consultation upon a case at the hos pital and consented, because of our former college friendship, to come over here and look at this mysteri- ous patient of Mrs. Underwood's."
 His tone and manner emphasized his tactless words. And you, a mere woman, are wasting his time" they said as plainly as if he had spoken aloud.
 Keep your coat on, Bert" Dr. Meredith advised. I've been get ting come advance information about the conditions surrounding your prize exhibit"
 \ Doctors Riddle Solved
 The contrast between the two men as they faced each other was like the throwing open of a door upon something which always had puzzled 'm". IL was the reason for Dr. Pettit's remaining on ordinary prac- titioner when he possessed so much IutulCdl anu SuTRlCell Sklll. l saw now that his stiffness, his reserve, his prized dignity had wrapped him around like enveloping garments, keeping him from the progress he should have made. pr. Meredith was so sure of himself and his posi- tion that he was not afraid of losing prestige by jest of an ease of man ner, while the other man cung 10 his dignity tenaciously, as if it were the only symbol of his profession which he possessed.
 i We were inside the house by this time and I preceded the two phy- sicians upstairs 10 my room, where ! lay the amnesia stricken girl. kath- crime came to the door with her usual domurc saiutation for Dr. Pet tit, but when her eyes fell upon the other man they widened in astonish- ment.

 Wragge halted on the fringe of the cinema people clustered at the cot tage door. Again a brief indecisi4n seemed 10 master him, and it was with an air of reluctance that he at last released the statesman's arm.
 If you will wait here, sir. l won't keep you a minute" he said. "Then we will resume the matter of procur- ing evidence against Sir Dudley Glenister.
 Wragge pushed his way through Wommersleys men and, passing into the cottage, entered the living room. where Miss Blair" had been laid on a horse-hair couch. The great Fa- bian was incoherently trying to eX- plain himself and his doings to the girls parents, who were bending over her and paying no heed to him. Her eyes were shining feverishly, but there was a glint of mischief in them as they rested on the. inspec- tor.
 Hello, here's the 'tec!" she shrilled. "The 'tec that came mooch- ing after Simon. What have you done with the real villain Of the piece, old son-the brighter you were with outside? Don't let him slip you, for you'll never catch him again. He knows the game is up now that I'm knocked out, and I'm jolly glad 1t is"
 "I am sorry to intrude," saic Wragge, addressing the keeper are his wife. 'T am a detective officel from Scotland Yard and I want t' ask your daughter two questions. have nothing whatever against ne personally"
 John and Judith Grimes whisper ed to each other and stood aside
 "It1I ease her conscience mayoe if she's dying" said the keeper. Wragge stopped down and put hl nuestions-only a few words to each The first was answered at once wltl a nod and an impudent smile.

 pr. Pettit's shoulders are most expressive. They betrayed their disapproval of me emphaticaily as he strode rapidly around the farm house toward the front door leaving me 10 the escort of Dr. Meredith. l guessed that the second physician was someone whose opinion Herbert Petit greatly valued. had greeted them with flippancy in order 10 hide my chagrin at the ridiculous position in which Jerry Tivers practical joke had placed me This evidently had jarred him as much as had the sight of my enforced circus stunt upon "I.ady's" back. He meant his disapproval to emphasize the enorm- fly of my offense against his stan- dards.
 Any exhibition Of pr. Pettits dig nifty, however, always upsets my risiblcs, and forgot my own chagrin in my amusement at his uncompro- missing back, But I did not know that I was smiling until Dr, Mere dith's voice murmured,

After studying social psychiatry as 1t relates to the early training of children, Mrs. Mann came to the conclusion that rearing children was surely one of the most difficult of tasks.
 Mothers do so many things they should not do, she learned.
 For instance, where is q mother who is not so proud of her child that she likes to show off the child before her friends.
 Yet Mrs. Mann was told that
