 "I'll remember, Lee Chow" l promised, AS he melted into the hedge again, I sent the car along at a smart pace toward the village, divided between gratitude for the fidelity of the Chinese and annoy ance at the seemingly needless pre- cautions with which he was sur rounding me,
 At the telegraph off1ce I found none of the difficulties Lillian had predicted. An unusually intelligent man checked over with me the mes sage, letter by letter, and promised that he would send to me the re- peated telegram from Allen Drake at San Francisco as soon as he should receive it.

So he had spent more and more time up there. The fishing of Rattles the kingtisher and Mrs. kingfsher hadn't disturbed him, There were fish enough for all, and 30 long as enough of them went down that long neck of his he felt good-natured.
 But with the coming of the six young Kingfshers everything vas changed It wasn't that the six young kingfshers required 60 many more fish. It wasn't that at all. It was the fact that in learning to catch them, the young kingfishers were so awkward and so clumsy that they frightened many times as many as they caught.
 Time and again Longlegs stand Ing motionless in the water, would see a school Of little fish swimming straight toward him. He would stand motonless with his head drawn back between his shoulders ready 10 be shot forward the in stant those fish came within reach. Then, without warning, there would he a clatterng rattle behind him, and splash in amongst those little fish would 20 one of the kingtisher youngsters. Then up he would come. sometimes with 8 fish and some times without. while that school of little fishes would be scattered in every direction.
 Day after day this happened and Longlegs said nothing, But at last he lost his temper. One of those young kingtishers caught little fish almost under Longlegs' very bill. It was more than he could stand, Like lightning his long, sharp bill shot forward and down. It was fortunate for that young Kingfsher that he was just beyond reach. As it was he dropped the fish he had just caught, and with a scream of fright flew to tree on the bank. Rattles and Mrs. Kingfisher came hurrying up to find out what the trouble was about. When the fright ened young Kingtlsher had told them, they flew over to where Long
