gave him and went splash, right into the brook. The water was very cold and Mir. Mugguns was very tired. but the Raggedys and Lady Lindy had to laugh at the way MT. Mugguns scrambled out of the brook and scampeTed for home.
 T shall not stay here any longer to be mistreated." he howled as he disappeared down the path.
 Now! Let us wish for great big ice cream soda apiece!" Lady Lindy said as she held her wishing stick. And while old Mir. Mugguns was peevishly changing his soggy wet clothes, the Raggedys and Lady Lindy sat in the little lsdy's cunning little house and enjoyed their nice magic ice cream sodas. So you see Mr. Nugguns only injured himself when he tried to injure others. And that is always the way, so it is best to be kind.

The business of transferring own ership and command of the Oron- tes was not lengthy matter. The wheels had been greased very er- fectively through cable negotiations while the ship was on her way out to the Cape. When signatures were affixed to documents there was noth- ing else to do prior to the clearing of the ship when ready to proceed. Mr. Fielding looked vastly re- lieved He could indulge his cour- teous nature to the limit in extend- ing good wishes and congratulations to his new client without being momentarily in fear of some out burst from glowering Jake Stevens.
 Really. sir, 1t would be better If you let the man go!" he said. "A horrid fellow. A perfect brute, imagine"
 Drake laughed pleasantly as he bade Fielding good day.
 q like Stevens" he said. T have 1eelllS lHdL "S oudll StL h'AIo eP the voyage good friends"
 When the lawyer departed, Drake spent an hour looking for Stevens. In the first saloon bar he visited they said Jake had just left with another man after taking two hur- ried drinks. In the next place stumbled upon by chance after sev- eral blanks had been drawn, Stew ems had been alone, had bought rum, and gone on. Drake tried one more place, nearer the docks. and then went aboard, for the clock pointed close to five. He was pleased. rather, that Jake had chosen to load up with Cape Smoke before taking that five minutes interview. He knew there was chance that, when a man started out to drown his grievances in liquor, other things were likely to get drowned, too. He hoped Jake would fail to show up, so that he and Mary could enjoy an evening together. A drunken man would be easier to handle than a cold sober one; but in any condi. ] ton Jake Stevens was going to be handful, and Drake for once felt vain enough to want to present a good appearance before Mary, There were clothes In that sea chest and sea bag that had come to him by steamer; clothes fit for genteel wear.
 Mister Stevens aboard yet?' he asked Twining at the gangway.
 "No---no, sir" replied the mate with a queer smirk. As he answered he regarded Drake whimsically, as If coniecturing whether anything that had happened on the passage out as between first mate and ship'' boy could be brought against him self now. Drake almost grinned back. He was aboard" added Twining. "He came off half an houl ago in that white barque's boat. think Miss Manning saw him. H' went away in\the same boat
 How did he seem?"

 "I'll so mate under you? Oh, yes!"
 Drake pulled Stevens inside the cab.
 "Youll be q deserter If you quit" Drake said as they started off.
 I'm not quitting. I'm supersed- ed!" snarled Stevens, knowing he had the right of that.

Diary of Nurse Johnson on the Obstetrical Case of Mrs. John
 Alden Prescott, Concluded

It is a strange thing that no one told little Jackie about his little brother. Even Mr. Prescott seemed to have some hesitancy about this,
 One morning, however when the father was talking with the boy he said:
 "Jackle, just as soon as your mother is well enough, you shall be taken to her, and then she will have great surprise for you
 The child expectantly looked into his fathers face, but since then he has not voiced his inccssant desire, T want my muvver.'
 Even this morning when he was brought into his mothers room he was quiet, although his little hands never unlocked themselves from hers. A most peculiar thing hap pened at this meeting. He seemed to have forgotten all about his little brother and Mrs. Prescott did not mention him.
 "Is you gettln' well, muVver?' the boy asked as he covered the nerveless hand lying on the cover let with kisses aud tears. "I get so blue wivout you. Won' you get well right aTay:'
 I'll get we'll. son. if you just keep on loving me- said Mrs Pres colt in weak voice.
 The child lifted great solemn eyes

: "Well, she went down the steps that way, too. but she whisked around corner in jilfy and the man l told 10 watch her said she skipped into big car that was evil dently waiting for her and 1t got out of sight in hurry. My man got the number. Here it Is. Will you' look after her?' ~ "I promised and took the num- Der he gave me. At our next stop l sent several code telegrams in the hope of getting some trace of the woman, but 1, haven't much hope. It was probably a phoney license plate, and l have no doubt that the woman was young and active man in disguise. The timbre of his voice when I had q chance to remember 1t bore me out in that conjecture
 "Of course, you have seen, Madge, what the trouble is," Lillian said after a pause with a nod of her head toward the room where her odd guest lay asleep.
 "Amnesia 2" I ventured.
 "Yes, of a peculiar type even of that oldest of all mental diseases. But when she was brought upon the train she had been drugged, there was no doubt about it. Who ever did it had calculated it care fully. She had been able to walk with a guide aboard the train and the full effect did not strike her un- til an hour after the woman had left.
 Saw She Was Unconscious
 Before that time 1 had seen what was coming and had arranged with the Pullman conductor 10 sur render her berth ticket and mine, give me a stateroom instead with a bonus, Of course. The girl, walked docilely enough to the stateroom, with my arm helping her and evil dently had no consciousness that ] was a stranger. It was only few minutes after getting into the stateroom that she slumped down in her seat, and I saw that she was unconscious. There was physician on the train and he said that she was in no danger, that there was nothing to do but to wait until she recovered consciousness. When she did she appeared to accept me with out question. Only asked once where the widow had gone.
 "The rest you know" Lillian con- cluded. T brought her on with me because she interested me profess sionally and appealed to me. And now Lillian sprans up and inserted a key into the lock of the trunk which had just been brought up.
 I shot a curious glance at her. She had not told me how or where she had found the key 10 that trunk. Had she gained access to the chain ed satchel which the mysterious waif so carefully guarded?

to hers and whispered T wove you better than anybody. l wove you better than God"
 Then they held him Up to kiss her lips, and took him away prom ising that he could come again 10 see her tomorrow.
 ] think that visit did more for Mrs. Prescott than any of the doc tors care or medicine. For the first time the tired, uncaring look went out of her eyes and l thought l saw there a desire and will 10 live which I had not seen before.
 For the first time she asked 10 have the other baby brought to her Up to then she had always ac- cortea the child when it had been laid in her arms. but had eyinced no particular interest in it. Today she cuddled it and her kisses fell softly on the top of it's little bald head.
 Tomorrow you and I and Jackie will make the Tlans for our future lives. Tomorrow, my dear, Jackie will know what a great reSponsi- hiIity rests upon him." and then she sighed and said, "Perhaps life won't he so hard after all, Perhaps it is selfish of me to feel this way"
 Don't you think so, nurse,' she said, looking up at me with a bright smile - the first she had given me in all her illness.
 "You seem 10 have rverything 10 make your life uappy,' I answered.
 "Perhaps who knows - per- haps that's true. At least I'll try to make it true.'
 Again she kissed the baby, and laid it in its little crib.

Willie Wolf is a mean fellow" MT. Mugguns said to himself after he had been bitten on the heel by Willie Wolf, And Winona Wolf is a mean creature too. she hit me a hard crack with my crooked stick as l started to run for home" Then he looked in the looking glass and howled ever so loud. Mir. Mug guns howlcd because he was angry at Raggedy Andy now. Just see what Kaggedy Andy did!" he cried to himself, He painted green rings around my eyes while Willie Wolf held me down. Oh. Just wait until can catch Raggcdy Andy alone. l shall take all the cotton stulfing ont of his rag body and put him un- der log where no one will ever find him that's what I will dol"
 MT. Mugguns tried 10 wash the green paint from around his eyes, but the paint was oil paint and would not wash off. It made Mr. Mugguns look as if he wore great big spectacles.
 "Ill run right over to Lady Lindy's house and capture R0ggedy Ann and eat her candy heart, and capture Raggedy Andy and take inc cotton stueing out of his cloth body, ] and capture Lady Lindy and take her magical wishing stick. Then l will wish for a lot of nice things just for myself! So MT. Mugguns got on his tall hat and taking his crooked stick went running towards Lady Lindy's cunning little house,
 Now Lady Lindy felt certain that old Mr. Mugguns would return 10 bother her so she and Raggedy Ann and Raggcdy Andy planned what they would do when Mir. Mug guns came. And as they planned, they giggled a lot to thomselevs. Of course, mean old NIT. Mugguns did not know anything about this, so he went lickity split down the path un- til he came to Lady Lindy's front gate. Then when he pushed the front gate open the front gate swung right back and gave Mr. Mugguns q very hard crack which sent him rolling head over heels. Mir. Mugguns hoped right up and started through the gate again, but the gate did the same thing over again, except this time, the gate made MT. Mugguns roll farther than ever.
 Aha, I know!" Mir. Mugguns howled SIS he sat up and rubbed his bumps. Lady Tin1y has maglced the front gate! l will go around to the back gate" And around he went, but he had no sooner caught hold of the gate to open it. when the back gate organ swinging open and shut open and shut and Mr. Mug.

tablish habits that may save trouble later on.
 Mother-love is far-rraching. It should be farsoeing, and be willing to insist on some unpleasantness now for the sake of the future hap piness of the child.
 New foods should be introduced into the diet slowly. The child's stomach is no more prepared to digest heavy foods than his muscles are prepared to do the heavy work of man.
 Therefore be careful of such heavy foods as fried potatoes, doughnuts, sausage, pork spiced pickles, rich pastry and cake, even after the child is old enough to at- tend school.

guns was jeriIed this way and that way Faster and faster the back gate opened and shut until Mr. Mugguns' teeth clicked together and his hat flew off. His crooked legs kicked the air and he was given a very, very hard shaking,

The Tale ot Rescue Which Lillian
 Tells NIadge

"She boarded the train at Chi cago," Lillian said, beginning the story of her mysterious protege. she was accompanied by woman in a voluminous black cloak, which concealed the actual size of the fig ure beneath, but l had the impress sion that she was slender. The cos tune was completed by a mourning hat with a deep crepe veil which was never lifted while l watched her. Their baggage consisted only of suit case and valise. The valise you have discovered is fas- tened to the girls arm by a small chain and the key have yet 10 dis cover.
 "The woman, evidently in charge of the girl guided her to her seat, as If she were an invalid but l thought she was trying to make her actions as unobtrusive as pos sible. I had the seat directly behind them -- or would not have heard her low colloquy with the conductor when he came through. She prof fered him two tickets and he looked sharply at the girl as he said;
 "'You are not going through with her, then?'
 "oh, no, just to the first station up the line she replied in a voice which struck me oddly,
 "'She looks Ill to me- the con- huctor replied, seemingly worried.
 "'sho's all right the woman re- piled. and she has friends meeting her in New York. I just wanted to be sure she wouldn't be bothered with the tickets. Will you keep them for her?'
 "He's an old Acquaintance"
 Why?' the conductor demand ed sharply. Then bent forward and gave him d signal which he under stood. He is an old acquaintance of mine, and often has helped me in & piece of government work. l did not know, of course, that there was anything wrong, but one of my lunches had begun to bubble and fizzle, and I decided to put it in action before it evaporated.
 "I suppose can,' he finished and fussed with the past boards 10 give me time to finish bit of writ inE I was doing upon a card.
 "Try to have her watched when she gets of I wrote, and handed him the card with my own ticket when he leisurely came to me.
 He gave no sign that he had read 1t, but after the woman had alight- ed, with the girl paying no atten- ton to her going he. came back 10 my seat, his face alight with in- terest.
