better than that, honey"
 "Yes, she did too. Me put 'em in her cerule this morning"
 "You wha-a-atP" Rhoda had covered her cereal with cream, he remembered, and consumed it all. Why should you do such a naughty thing2"
 50 they'd hatch, like she said. And bite her! Me don't like her" :" Peace shrilled with pouting lip.
 Mrs. King leaned forward, not missing a word. Children and dogs-they know. I don't like her either, my dear. And as for you. MT. Dennis, you must be blind not to see she's giving you the double cross with that person she calls her cousin"
 Good heavens, her enmity he could stand! But if the King woman began taking care of him, he'd give up!
 Don't you dare tell Aunt Rhoda about the ant eggs," he ordered. "We're almost to Kansas City. Give me the postcard for your mother and I'll mail it. Don't want you to get of the train. Now, we'll go find Rhoda."
 He let Peace go after her post card, while he sat down beside his hancee. He wished Rhoda didn't always make him feel so uncomfort- able, as at present, for instance.
 Mrs. King told me she thinks you are giving me the doublecross," i" Rhoda began, stamping her letter.
 "That's hot one! She just told me the same thing about you. Said was blind not to see through it. That woman's a lulu, all right"
 He looked out of the window at the outskirts of the great mid- western metropolis. Told Peace not to get off the train, but I guess we'd all be better to stretch our legs bit. Shall we?"
 "I'm getting out" Rhoda said coolly. DO as you like"
 The train was easing to a stop. Denny went after his charge. Peace was nowhere in sight! (To Be Continued)

CHAPTER VII

The two officials stood in the nisle. The policeman consulted a notebook. "Answer to a T." he said, confronting Denny. "Young man, I'd like to ask you a few questions. Come outside" .,
 'Ill stay right here, if you don't Hnind," Denny countered. There's h youngster asleep in that forward section don't like to leave. Now shoot" He hoped Mrs. King would stew in her own juice. He didn't know whether her future Chagrin would counterbalance his present discomfort, but to get rid pf her was worth even this.
 s'It's about the Kelly girl kid- naping. Wake her up. We'll soon hettle this before the train starts"
 Denny was furious. They'd not wake up Peace. He could sub. etantiate his actions. He listened to the accusations, and told the story of the two blue dresses all over again. My f1ancee is due any minute. You can ask her. Meanwhile, check the telegram. Get the address from Western union and telephone the War vens."
 That, the officer assured him, had already been attempted. True, the name was correct, but that didn't signify anything. Warren might be one of the gang this lady CMrs. King intimated were Bpringing up enroute. At any rate, no one had answered at the address.
 Carole stood up for him. 'Mrs. King had made a silly mistake, Captain," she said with her best Hollywood smile. "Why, I've spent the whole day with MT.

. STORIES
 IN STAMPS
Fairy Stories Never Came True for Author

|" A ND they lived happily ever
 after" The usual happy ending of Hans Christian Ander- sons fairy tales was never his in real life.
 He was never transformed from an unattractive, poorly dressed pauper into a handsome prince and he never married the princess. That happened for him only in the stories that have de- lighted thousands of children.
 Hans Christian Anderson, hon. ored by the Danish stamp above, one of an issue of three, honoring the l25th anniversary of his birth, was unlucky in love and remained a bachelor until his death, tired but happy old man of 70. He was in love many times-or thought he was-but someone else always won the girl.
 One of his greatest loves was Jenny Lind, "the Swedish Night ingale." She was fond of the writer, too. but he lacked courage to propose. It may have been true that the singer preferred a career to marriage at the time, but she married six years later.
