 But now I saw in it means Of escape from the true explanation of my presence at the Public Library. and l answered quietly:
 That is one of the things I am planning. The work is pleasant and remuneratiyc. but of course I am horribly rusty in 1t now. Therefore l am laundering my own knowledge at the Library"
 It was not really an untruthful answer, for l knew well if I were connected with Philip Eeritzen's that l could secure an engagement before almost any womans club
 "Very interesting Dicky com- mcnted ironically. May l be per mitted to inquire what you intend doing with Junior while you are doing this work? Do you expect to dress him up in the long-trousercd effects and station him by your side to add 10 the effectiveness of your appearancc?'
 l ignored the sheer. for I saw that my explanation of my presence at the Library had been plausible enough to satisfy Dicky, and that was my sole concern.
 Tt never has been my practice to neglect Junior and I do not intend 10 hcEin now" told him. " I shall make all proper arrangements for his care whie I am at work. But may I remind you that we are nearly at the end of the Drive and l have not yet told you Of the reason for the unpleasant scene at the Mere dith's."

If you'd ever say what you're going to instead of wandering all over the country, you might get somewhere.

couldn't look two ways at once, and he was more interested in Mother Muskrat than in any possible danger ahead of him. You see, he knew so much, or thought he knew so much. that he was sure there couldn't be any danger at that time.
 "Iu get across to these rushcs and hide" thought Little Mister Know-It-Ar. I'll tell mother that l didn't know she wanted me and that I was just trying 10 practice what she had taught us about hiding. I'll see if I cant hide so well that she won't see me. Then when she gives up and starts 10 go back I'll show myself and shell be glad l vas so smart"
 So Little Mister Know-It-All swan just as fast as he could. You should have seen the way that little tail of his wiggIed back and forth in tho wa.cr. He ~d just reached the bulrushcs on the farther side of the Smiling Pool and started in between them when there was a rush in the water behind him and something piuchod his tail so hard that it made him sQucal right out At the same time ho scrambled farther in among the rushcs. He scrambled in where tho water was so shallow that ho could keep his feet on bottom and still have his head ont. Then he looked at that little tail of his, for it still smartcd and achod, Then he began 10 cry. Can you guess why he was crying2 No, if wasn't just because that tail smarted and achod. 1t was because the end of that tai, was gone. II had hecn bitten right off. X minut" later Mother Musk rat arrived. Little Mister Know-It- All had forgotten all about hiding from hor then He ran 10 her whispering and crying. She looked him over carefully Thcn she said severely. "You'ro lucky little Muskrat to have lost only the tip Of your fail. Thc wonder is you djnt lose your life. If that big pinkcrel had seen you a moment sooner you would he in his stom- ach now. That's what comes of dis oheving."

Madge's MischievOus Remarks
 on Her Library Mission

I repressed an exclamation Of dismay as I realized that unwilling Iy had revealed to Dicliy the fact that the reference room Of the Pub lie Library had been the place where I had met Lucia Meredith. It was no part of my new scheme of life that he should learn Of my con- templated research work for Philip veritzen before 1 was ready to tell him myself. But with this hint my plans were likely 10 be a secret no longer. fer Dicky has the lively curiosity of Kipling's Riki-Tikl-Tavi coupled with unusually keen per captions, and possesses as well q re- markable faculty for getting the cor rect answer to the famous old prob lem Of putting two and two together.
 Yet, I reflected, with a feeling of inevitableness. there had been no other possible course for me. Fate had brought Lucia Meredith to that corner and my fears for Katherine, together with Lucias crazed jealousy of my movements, were responsible for the other bizarre scene in which Dickv and l had been participants.
 But l knew that there would be no further chance for me to tell Dicky the weird story of Lucia Meredith's alarming actions until had satisfied him concerning my reason for being at the Public Library reference room
 Saiving my conscience with the time worn adage concerning the fairness Of everything in love and war and reflecting grimly that the present relations Of my husband and myself resembled armed warfare more than anything else, ] seized upon the sibe he had thrown at me as an exhausted swimmer might grasp a rope thrown to him.
 Are you going 10 start a laundry for club women's brains again?' he had asked, q ridiCuling phrase he had coined when shortly after our marriage I had given a course of history talks before a woman's club and received q welcome sum of money for the work. It evidently was favorite brain child of his,

 An exquisite afternoon gown of white faille is the background for a truly beautiful, painted decora- ton. The frock is made with a close fitting basque and full-flow- ing skirt. The sleeves are short, the neck bato..u. E'he sleeves and the bottom of the skirt are edged with yellow faille scallops. Ribbon the same shade ties In bow at the back of the neck and falls in long streamcrs.

Menus for tie Family

While experience may be an ex- too dear a one, so q few suggestions regarding the choice and cooking of summer vegetables seem quite timely.
 And remember this, no matter how carefully you or your market man may select your vegetables, careless handling after their arrival in the home will make them lose much of their succulence,
 The largest fruits and vegetables are by no means always the best unless they are heavy in propor- ton. A particularly large vegetable Ter fruit may be forced produce and lacking in flavor. Here is where the fragrance of the fruit becomes a determining tor. Smell your fruits. A fragrant odor indicates fresh, well favored and sweet fruit. Good color means maturity and freshness in vegetables as well as fruits and of course the Crispness Of tops and leaves and hulls and stems is most essential for freshness.
 Need Firm Heads
 Asparagus should have full and firm heads. smooth plump stalks and moist, finely grained cut ends.
 Beets should have green, unWiIt- cd tops. They should he smooth with one straight root and be dark red in color.
 Beans should be smooth, Of bright color, Q it green or yellow, and the pods long and brittle. A slender firm bean usually means tender, stringlc@s cooked bean.
 Berries of any kind should be clean, fragrant, firm and evenly col orcd.
