 Mary.


 For 2 second or two l looked at Katherine hclplessly as she gave her ultimatum that l must not keep tempestnous, tompcramontal Mary Harrison in our hotel suite, where Junior was convalcscing from n serious illness. What could dc with the girl during the time which would intervene between the present hour and that which would bring her Aunt Harriet 10 inc city? And where could l stage the interview with Mary, her aunt, DIcky and myself would share, and which promised 10 be stormy In the extreme. Suddenly 4 solution Of the whole problem flashed upon me. but bcforo l could utter !t Katherine voiced the same thought. ..
 You arc goinb 10 take tho Etycr- side Drive apartment, aren't you?' she queriod. "Whats the matter with your taking possession today'"
 Are you q clairyoyant?' l de- nandcd.
 "No; only commonscnsicaL' she returned, smiling, "Put Mary 10 work up thorc, Perhaps she'll let off some Of that suppressed stcam,'
 "I haven't noticed any sitting on the safety valve on har part" I re- tortod, "hut I'm mighty grateful for the suggestion. Do you want mc 10 set her out right away or may do some telephonins first?'
 "Tolephone your fool head off fl you want to-" Katherine replied with nnischievous grin, directed, I knew, al my vell-known propensity 10 use the telephone when a letter would do just as well.
 "YouIl Need a Big Room"
 "It's really necessary today said. "It I take that apartment I'll have 10 get hold Of Katie. If she can get that noon train she'll be in time 10 begin work on it early in the morning. She can stay there tonight, and Imagine Mary and I will sleep there also. Harriet can---
 I stopped short with an alarmed glance toward the other room. Sup rose Mary had heard my incautious utterance.
 Katherine caught my look, flashed me a reassuring smile.
 "she couldn't possibly have heard" she whispered comfortably. "Your tones were almost mufflnd. What about Harriet?"
 With my lips close to her ear I told her of Mrs. Braithwaitc's ex- pected arrival in the evening and of my suddenly evolved plan to have her stay at the hotel after the in-

 "No doubt" I said with wry smile. And now for the telephone. But first I'll tell Mary about the apartment"
 "Will You Be Good. l went back 10 the living room, 10 find my small son with flushed cheeks leaning forward eagerly in his chair, while Mary was retail ing some experience of hers in the sojourn across tho scus which had been hers and her brothers during the troubled year in which thc !

 "Junior,' asked, "how would you | like to leave this hotel and go 10 live in q big house, where you could sec the Hudson river every day and play in tho park along its banks?' His face shone with enthusiastic approval al once. He has made sev- eral trips upon the steamers plying the Hudson river and they are among his most precious memories, or so I judge from his frequent rof- nrenchs 10 them and demands 10 re- peat tho experience.
 "That would be bully, you bet your boots" he exclaimed. "Can she come. too?" He indicated Mary with lOrdly wave of the hand,

hardly whisper. What do you think they saw? They saw great Buster Fear! "Ycss. sir, they saw great big
 Buster Bear. He was standing up and looking toward the sugar house and they knew by the way his nose was lifted that he was sniffling the delicious odor of the boiling sap They knew that Buster would run almost any risk to get some Of that syrup and sugar,
 This sugar house mustn't be left alone for a minute until we arc through sngaring," whispered Farm CT Brown, "I had hoped that that fellow hadn't yet wakened up from
 his winter sleep. Now that he has, We must keep watch. That rascal would break in here If he thought no one was around. I wonder what he would do if he should meet that Mountain Lion"
 Just then, as it in answer 10 Farmer Brown, Buster Bear sudden ly dropped down on all fours and turned quickly. l. was plain that he heard something back of him They could see his two little ears standing up very straight as he list ened. In a moment he took three or four steps. As he did so there bounded out from the midst of the Black Shadows a great Cat. It was Puma the Panther. Rather hastily Buster Bear backed up. They could hear him growl as he drew his lips back, showing all his teeth. Puma the Panther crouched and they could hear him growl and see his long tail twitch in the moonlight, So, while Farmer Browns Boy and his father watched and in their excitement almost forgot to breathe, Buster Bear and Puma the Panther faced each other. Would they fight? Busted had been a long time king of the Green Forest, but here was some one who might be his match.
 For a long timo neither made move. Then Buster looked away, Finally he moved off slowly, and in his appearance there wasn't the least hint that he had seen any one out of the usual. He was a picture of unconcern. At the same time Puma the Panther vanished again in the Black Shadows. One moment he was there crouching in the moon- light and the next moment he was nowhere to be seen. Ii was quite clear that neither Buster nor Puma cared to quarrel with tho other.
