The first reaction of any normal person to anything out Of the ordi- nary is one Of wariness until 1t IS explained. Therefore I checked the turn back toward the kitchen which I already had made when Mrs. IT. cer had finished her tirade against inc owners Of the savage dog and frankly stared at the two queer men who had straycd into our backyard, trying to ascertain which of them had uttered the warning shout Tn the English tongue, Of which both were now pretending almost total ignorance.
 But my searching glance brought me no enlightenment. Both men were equally unkempt and unpre- possessing. apparently stolid, al though the flicker of the taller mans half-Closed eyelids had seemed to indicate q sense of humor sufficient to apreciate Mrs. Ticers gestures and angry voice.

 Have you guessed why? We'll, you see, Farmer Browns Boy had filled in that hole very carefully and he had finished by putting back the sod he had cut out in the first place. He had packed it down very carefully. When he was all through. you would have had hard work 10 find the exact 10 you. You see, Farmer Browns Boy didn't want any harm to come to those helpless babies of Eattles the kinghshor.

CHAPTER NLVII

Roger Brooks was speaking stating his business in his own way. Teddy tied her handkerchief into ! knots and then united them again. 1 Pops voice was moderately pitched, vibrant He stood before them ! square on his feet. his head thrown back, his arms held composedly at 1 his side. He spoke with slow de- liberation, carefully. his words well 1 chosen.
 After giving a brief resume of the Times business activities for 1 the year, he paused. His audience settled back. The Waldens sat mo- l tionless. the younger man glarlng with undisguised hatred at the speaker.
 Teddy started. Pop was describ- 1 ing Diana's and his own Kidnapping. , Then he read the typed reproduc- tion of Larry Copley's story, giving the names disclosed by the eX- convict. The little reporter had heard her own name mentioned, then Don's-Costello's. She stole a look at Don and encountered his grave, serious eyes. For these two, at least, the spirit of the dead gang ster who had not been good, but not altogether bad seemed to hover over the room.
 The Waldens, senior and junior. had lost little of their pose of tol- erant insolence and Cynlclsn.
 Now, MT. Garfield, q few words from you" said Pop. turning at the conclusion of his talk to his city editor.
 Bill Garfield discarded his cigar cite and arose. He said just enough to corroborate the publishers state ments,
 Mir keene. please.' Pop indicated his literary editor, and glanced with a peculiarly sig nificant expression at the judge and district attorney.
 Don rose, his head inclined a lit tie shyly. Teddy hung on his words, her lips parted, her brown eyes di- lated.
 The Waldens stirred impatiently, but did not drop altogether their air Of hatred and insolence.
 Don touched fragmentarily on the story of his incarceration in the subcellar. Pop had impressed his listeners by his dignity and stern ness Don's attitude was debonair, boyishly confidential.
 But his manner, and particularly the portcnt of his speech were sui hcient to enrage the Waldens and break their sullen silence. Young Walden sprang up, his eyes bleared, the muscles of his wolfish face tUitching.
 Look here. kenne," he jcrked out savagely. you've used our name , too damn carelcssly. you and Brooks , and Garfield. What are you driving , at? You haven't proven anything , yeti"
 He looked questioningy toward , the judge and the prosecutor Both , remained silent, ignoring his in quisitive glance. "Well provc-everything," , Don made the assertion calmly , but it carried conviction. He stepped around 10 the head of the table. H. lifted the black bag from it's place of concealment. Removing it's con. tents, the dictagraph reproduce' and recorder, Don adjusted the lat
 ter and attached the cord to tn.

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Fly
 gcia, the Health Magazine.

1 A committee of the American Health Association, including several
 authorities on public health, after i consultation with numerous leaders i in the field of public health, has 1 prepared an outline of the elemen- i tary facts that should be known
 relative to the spreading of all in 1 tectious diseases.
 Some Of the conditions are so un-
 usual in the United States that they
 are little likely to give concern to 1 the average person: others are quite ! frequent and represent q constant ! menace. Their control, indeed their complete elimination, depend largely on what the average person knows about them.
 | Cause Is Mystery. 1 The cause of chicken pox IS un- known. Apparently the infectious agent is present in the bisters that appear on the skin and on the f membranes in the mouth and nose. Since the blisters appear early and break almost as soon as they ap- pear. the disease may be spread be- fore the eruption is visible on the skin. The blistcrs on the skin ap- pear in successive groups. usually first on the back. chest CT face, and most protuse on the parts of the skin that are covered 5y the cloth ir..
 one Of the most important facts relating to chicken pox has to do with it's resem blance to smallpox. Any time that this condition ap- pears in g. person over l5 years of age, or at any age during an cpl demic of smallpox, the eruption should be seen by someone thor oughly familiar with the two dis eases in order that smallpox may be absolutely ruled out.
 ! If the case is one of chicken pox. the medical treatment usually in- cludes the prescribing of some laXa- tive. of st simple diet, of mildly warm | baths, and of suitable loWder to
 prevent itching. It may be necessary 1 with young children to provide cellu- 1 Ibid mittens, or otherwise to control 1 the arms and hands, so that they | will not pick open the bli@tcrs, caus- { ing secondary infection and deep pit | ting or scars.
 Don't Last Long. Ordinarily the blisters, if let alone,
 will last few hours. break open,
 dry up and form crust. The crust dsa ppears in from two 70 four days.
 When the child recovers, because it is usually child that is concern
 ed, all that is necessary in the way
 O., final disinfection is io wash the bedding thoroughly with hot water
 and with soap and to clean and air
 the room in which the child has
 been while sick. Other children
 should not be permitted to come in
 contact with the sick child, and adults should be careful to cleanse the hands after attending the child,
 before coming into contact them

Farmer Browns Boy is too thoughtful to needlessly worry any of his little friends of the Green For est and the Green Meadows. of the Laughing Brook and the Smiling Pool. He knew just how worried Rattles the Kingfsher and Mrs. Battles must be as they watched him dig open their nest. So. having satished himself that there couldn't possibly be any homelier babies in all the great world than the King fisher babes, he hurried 10 put them back and leave, so that the Kingfsh- CT family might be reunited.
 Now Farmer Browns Boy was no more curious than vas Peter Rabbit. Peter was on the other side of the Laughing Brook. He could see just snough by sitting up and looking over the grass 10 know what Farmer Browns Boy vas doing. That is, he knew that Farmer Browns Boy was digging open the home of Rattles the kingfsler. But he couldn't see the babies when Farmer Browns Boy took them out. nor could he see f'" hole itself that Farmer Browns Boy had dug
 "I ought 10 be on the other side of the Laughing Brook" thought Peter to himself "Yos, sir. I ought 10 l." ol the other side of the Laughing Brook. II l were over there l could look into that hole just as soon as Farmer Browns Boy leaves"
 So without waiting to see what Farmer Browns Boy would do afte" re had looked at the babies Peter scam pored back 10 the Smiling Pool, around it, and up the Laughing Brook to a place where he could camper across on an old log. Then he hurried back along the other bank. II took him some little time, and by the time he reached the Smil- ing Pool he could see Farmer Browns Boy trampng home across 'he Green Meadows, With a nasty look about 10 see that Roddy Fox was nowhere about. and that there was no danger near, Peter scam rerel past the Smiling Pool, down along the bank of the Laughing Brook toward the place whore Farm or Browns Boy had been digging.
 This is splendid" though Peter. Now I'll see thoso Kinefshcr babies. | won't hurt them and I'll try not tn scare them. But I certainly am rot going 10 miss this opportunity 70 a,e them. nope Farmer Browns noy didn't carry them away ! don't ser what he dug that place u.an for anyway
