For some reason, Judy, both you girls have made an enemy of Smith. I'll advise you to keep out of his reach for while "
 On the way to the hospital I told Jerry a little about the trouble that Joan had more or less innocently gotten herself into. He looked much concerned and said:
 That's the reason why Jem Smith looked so surly when asked him about you. You seem to get into more trouble. Judy. than anyone I have ever known. Adventure has just marked you for its prey, What is your next move, my dear? What are you going to do now?"
 'I don't know, Jerry. You see, I haven't yet gotten used to the feel ing that I am not to be executed within an hour after all"
 Surely, Judy. you weren't con- cerned in that mess, were you? You never knew Barry Cornwall"
 T never knew Barry Cornwall, but II guess I am in the mess anyway. l was going to help Joan out in some way before he died and am not going to desert her now"
 Well. she is out of it, isn't she? It is a good thing for everyone that the young man is dead" remarked Jerry.

 We went to ind out where Lela Cornwall lived. Joan wanted to help her if she could" l explained.
 That was very kind of Miss Mere dith, Probably the poor girl has not a friend on earth. But, Judy, you should have insisted that l or some man friend Of Miss Meredith should have gone with you. We would have probably busted Smiths head for him."

T might have known" Dicky be-
 gan hotly but Lillian advanced close to him, set her fists at her waist in the burlesqued fashion
 which she affects when she is giv- ing Dicky what she calls a dress ing down." and eyed him with the cool stare which always brings him to attention as if he were a soldier on parade. II always amuses and interests me to see this subdued at- titude of Dicky's when Lillian is lecturing him, for 1t is deference he gives 10 no other human being. l know, of course, the reason for 1t, his sense of everlasting obliga- ton 10 his old friend for the ter rife sacrifice she once made for him, a sacrifice imposed upon her by her high code of personal honor, because his whole future was en- dangered by q malicious scheme Of which she was the innocent victim.
 "Yes, you might have known that I'd be on this particular job with both feet" she said. You never fooled me In all your life, Dicky Graham. and it's too late for you to try to make any wool spectacles for my eyes. I knew exactly what was up this morning when you said Edith would telephone. However, knowing Madge's propensity to
 swallow everything, hook. line and sinker, I asked her to let me listen in on the conversation, without put ting her next to my theory of things. But was I right? I'll tell all the stars 1 in the Armament I had every detail doped correctly. Now, I haven't Madge's memory. but I can remem- Der enough of that conversation to give you a pretty clear seport of it, and when I get through maybe
 that thick head of yours will be able to understand why your wife didn't fall over her own feet in her haste
 to accept Edith's offer of work in
 your office.'
 "I don't want to hear" Dicky in terrupted hotly, but Lillian inter
 rupted him ruthlessly.
 "Of course you don't" she said

Lillian Prepares to Give Dicky an
 oyerfauling.
 Dtcky had worked himself into an effective rage by the time he finished dilating upon my rudeness to that "big-hearted woman" Edith Fairfar, when she had asked me to take over some of the routine work on the magazine controlled by Dtcky and herself. At least 1t would have been effective if there had been any one around to be impressed by 1t. But though the insulting words which he had thrown at me would have reused me to fury as well as given me a bitter heartache only year ago, I found myself apparent Iy unaffected by them. My mind was fixed only upon the malicious but understandable purpose of paying with interest the taunts he was throwing at me.
 Too well I knew, with the deadly precedence which every wife ob- tsins, how best to irritate him. l had looked steadily at him all the time he was talking, trying 10 convey an impression of bored astonishment at his excitement. and had noted with malicious glee that the steady gaze was disconcerting him. When he finally ran out of explosives and came to an abrupt pause, I drawled in my sottests, best modulated in- factions.
 HI Don't Want to Hear!'
 "I am afraid you have been bit nnisinformed about this whole mat ter-oh! of course. not intentional ly't--as he started to speak, but the whole thing should be put straight in justice to me and to Edith. shall not attempt to give you my version of our telephone conversation. first, because you would not believe that I was giving you an accurate transcription. and second because I do not care for any further controversy upon the matter. But as 1t happens, someone else heard the entire colloquy, someone whose word, I think, will have weight with you"
 Without needing the excited ob- jurgation which he threw at me, l walked swiftly 10 the rear door through which Lillian had gone, and throwing 1t open. beckoned her into the room.

idea as that into your head?" ex- claimed Barker. He walks straight ahead just the same as you do"
 "Can he swim at all?" Reddy was bound to learn all he could about Big Claw.
 Certainly he can swim" replied Barker. He swims backward. What are you laughing at?"
 T was just wondering" replied Reddy, If, he was to be in a race which was to be walked for half the distance and the remaining distance to be finished by. swimming, where he would be when he finished. Can he do anything else besides walk and swim 2" asked Reddy.
 He can dig" replied Barker.
 Do you mean dig holes?' asked Reddy.
 "Of course, I mean dig holes" re- piled Barker. He digs holes in the sand down under water and backs into them tail first, and there he is ready to grab anything that comes his way and looks good to eat"
 That reminds me-" said Reddy, what does Big Claw eat, anyway"
 He isn't bit fussy," replied Barker. "A dead fish Is just as good as a live one to him. Now. I'm bit fussy. l want mine alive and fresh. But Big Claw will take his dead, and he doesn't care how long they've been dead, either. Once in while he catches a little fish alive, or some of the other things that live in the sea. He manages to pick up very good living altogether"
 How often does he change that shell of his?" demanded Reddy.
 Twice a year, I believe" replied Barker. Mrs. Lobster only changes hers once a year.
 Are Holsters always the color Of that one I found he other night?' inquired Reddy.
 Barker shook his head. No said he, usually Holsters are dark green with red and blue markings. but sometimes they are almost blue or almost all red. Those two-legged creatures called men seem to be very fond of Holsters. I am forever find ing their traps set to catch Holsters. If you ever get a chance to catch one out of his shell, do try it"
 Reddy grinned. "I will" said he. He knew that that was a little jske of Barkers. for already Barker had told him that the lobster changes It's shell only under water. Copyright, 1926. by T. w. Burgess) The next story: "The Lobster Without Claws

Sports costumes, as well as the more formal street tailleur show an interesting use of plaid and checked materials. The smart sports suit of the moment consists of a plain jack ct or blouse over a pleated skirt patterned in a gay design of plaids or checks. Chanel reverses this method, using a checked or striped sweater in connection with a plain skirt
 Owing 10 the simplicity of the present tailored silhouette, many of the new tailleurs are made of decorative checked or plaid. wool ems, the smart colors being the sand and tan shades, gray and the various black and white combina- tions.
 In the sketch today is an un- usually serviceable two-piece tail leur made of black and white checked woolen. Several interesting features are apparent in this out fit, notably. the single-breasted clos ing of the coat, the rounded edges, and the extremely narrow shoulder line. The skirt and edges of the coat are finished with narrow black silk braid.
 With this striking suit is worn a small black felt hat showing one of the new high crowns and a mar row brim that turns up both front and back.
 This smart outfit for early fall street wear illucfratcs the present vogue for checked woolens. The hat is white felt, trimmed with a narrow white grosgrain band.

There is nothing really strange in the world. It is all in the point of view. IL may seem strange to you that lobster can get out of his shell, but 1t isn't at all strange to the lobster. or to the other people of the sea who are his neighbors. It probably would seem just as strange for the lobster to see you walking on two legs. That's why I say there is nothing really strange in all the Great World. It is all in the point of view.
