Johnny Chuck says it is just “feel- ings"—and Johnny knows. He has had them many times and rarely have they proved wrong. He has grown to have a great deal of faith in his feelings, and he has had reason to. Johnny Chuck {s & member of the Squirrel family. Perhaps you didn’t know that, but it is true. He is a distant cousin of Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel and all the other Squir- rels. Like all the other members of the fdmily, Johnny belleves in pre- paring for winter, and he begins early. Early one morning some time be- fore the first visit of Jack Frost it happened that Peter Rabbit chanced to be passing near Johnny Chuck's house. Johnny wasn't in sight, but it “GOOD_MORNING, PETER! -SAID HE, “WHY ARB TOU STARING AT looked to Peter very much as If there was some fresh sand on Johnny's doorstep. “That is queer,” thought Peter. “I wonder if any! y has been trying to dig Johnny Chuck out of his home?” He hopped nearer and as he did 80 he saw some sand thrown out of Johnny Chuck’s doorway. Peter was more surprised than e He pricked up his long ears and sat up to stare at that doorway quite as if he never had seen it before. “Some one is inslde there digging now,” thought Peter. “I wonder who it can be?” 2 Just then some more sand was pushed out and then the head of Johnny Chuck himself appeared. Johnny came out and eat up on his doorstep. He grinned at Peter. “Good morning, Peter,” saild he, “Why are you staring at me so?” Peter gave a little sigh of rellef. “I was startled.” he confessed. “I sa: some =and thrown out of your deo: way and I thought some one was dlgging you out. You must have been doing the digging vourseilf.” Johnny Chuck nodded. “I was,” sald e. “What for?” demanded Peter. “I thought you completed that house last spring.” “So did I, Peter. So did I,” replied Johnny Chuck. “I didn’t know then that we were going to have such a oold winter.” 5 “Cold winter!” exclalmed Peter, and his big ears stood up straighter than ever. “Cold winter! Who says we are going to have & cold winter?” “I do,” retorted Johnny Chuck. *I say we are going to have a long, cold, hard winter. and I'm getting ready for it; I'm making my house a little deeper, 2o as to be sure of being be- yond the reach of Jack Frost.” “But winter is & long way off,” pro- tested Peter. “How can you know what sort of a winter it will be? Who told you?” “Nobody told me” replied Johnny Chuck. I don't have to be told; I just know it” “Johnny Chuck, you must be crazy,” declared Peter. “If no one told you how can you know {t7” “I feel it” replied Johnny Chuck. “T can't tell you just how I feel it, but I do feel it, and I know that we are going to have a long, cold, hard winter.

At the foot of the stalrs Dave Hen- [other whirled with a atartled cry, full{ derson discarded that theory as un- tenable. But if, then, neither one of the two in therc was Dago Georse —where was Dago George? It was a little beyond attributing to mere colncidence the fact that a couple of marauding safe breakers should have happened to select Dago George's safe tonight In the ordinary routine of their nefarious vocation. Colncldence as an cxplanation wasn't good enough! Tt looked queer—extremely queer! Where ho had thought that no one, save Millman and himself, had known anything about the presence of that money in New <fork tonight it appeared that a most azing number were not only aware of it, but were intimately Interested in that fact! He smiled a little in the darkness, not pleasantly, as he crept now, inch’ by inch, along the Lall toward the open door. He, too, was interested in that package of banknotes in tho safe! And, Dago George or the devil, it mattered very little which, there would be a showdown, very likely now a grim and very pretty little showdown, before the money left that room iu any one's possession save his own! From ahead, ingide the room, there came a slight clatter, as though a tool of soine eort had been dropped or tossed on the floor. It was fol- lowed by a muttered exclamation, and then a tort of breathless but trium- phant grunt. And then u voice in & guttural undertone: ere youse are, sport!

VIIL Bookie Skarvan Pays His Account. The little red-rimmed eyes blinked into the glare—it was the only color left in the white, flabby face—the red rims of the furtive little eyes. Bookie Skarvan’s fat hand lifted and tugged at his collar, as though the collar choked him. He fell back a step and his heel crunched upon the telephone transmitter and smashed it. = And then Bookie Skarvan licked his ips— and attempted a smile. “I” mumbled Bookie Skarvan, “ I can’t see your face. Who—who are you?” The sound of his own voice, husky and shaken as it was, seemed to bring him a certaln reassurance. “What do you want? Eh—what do you want?’ he demanded. Dave Henderson made no reply. It scemed us though his mind and soul and body were engulfed in some primal, savage ecstasy. Years swept their lightning sequence through his brain; hours, with the prison walls and iron bars around him, in which he had promised himself this mo- ment, seemed to live their life and existence over again. He said no word; he made no sound—but, with the flashlight still playing without & flicker of movement upon the other, he felt, with the back of his revolver hand, over Bookie Skarvan’s clothing, located in one of the pockets Bookie Skarvan's revolver, and. with utter contempt for ny move tne man private domain to enablo him, given|might make through the opening thus the necessary light, to see the whole| given him. hooked the guard of his interior quite freely.

The flashlight lifted then. and light was bending forward, the white|circled the walls of the room. Bookie | Skarvan's complaint had not wone un- heeded. Bookie Skarvan would have ample opportunity to see whose face ray flooding the inside of the safe. There came suddenly now a queer twitching to Duve Henderson's lips, and it came coincidentally with a sharp exclamation of delight from the man with the flashlight. In the man's hand was the original package of banknotes, its torn corner identify- ing it instantly to Dave Henderson, and evidencing with equal certainty to its immediate possessor that it was the object, presumably, which was sought. And now the man with the flash- light, without turning, reached out and laid the package on the desk beside the safe. The movement, how- ever, sent the flashlight's ray in & jerky half circie around the room, and mechanically Dave Henderson raised his hand and brushed it across his eyes. Was that fancy—what he had seen? Jt was gone now, it was dark in there now, for the flashlight | was boring into the safe again, and the man with the flashlight seemed intent on the balance of the safe's contents. It had been only a glimpse, s glimpse thut had lasted no longer than the time it takes a watch to tick, but it seemed to have mirrored itself upon Dava Henderson's brain so that he could still see it even in the dark- ness. It was a huddied form on the floor, close by the bed, just as though it had pitched itself convulsively out of the bed, and it lay there sprawled grotesquely, and the white face had eemed to grin at him in a horrid ‘and contorted way—and it was the face of Dago George. The man with the flashlight spoke suddenly over his shoulder to hlli companion: “You've pulled a good job, Maggot!” he said approvingly. “Better than either Cunny or me was looking for, { T guess. And so much so that I guess; Cunny had better horr. in himself before we close up for the night. You beat| it over to the joint and bring him| back.

We got a good hour and more yet before daylight, and before any of the crowd that work here gots; back on the job, and until then we got the house to ourselves, but that's no reason for wasting any flesting moments, so get a mova on! See?” “Sure!” grunted the other. “Well, then, beat it!"” Footsteps sounded from the room, coming in_the direction of the door- way, and Dave Henderson slipped in- stantly across the hall and cdged in behind the door that, opening back into the hall, afforded him both a con- venlent and secure retreat. The smile on his lips was more pleasant now. It was very thoughtful of the man with the flashlight—very! He cared nothing about the other man, who was now walking stealthily down the hall toward the front door; the money was still in that room in there! Also, he was glad to have had confirmed what he had already surmised—that Dago George slept alone in the Iron Tav- ern. The front door opened and closed again_softly. Dave Henderson stole silently across the hall again and crouched against the opposite wall once more, but this time almost at the door jamb itself. The flashlight, full on, lay on the: desk. It played over the package of banknotes, and sent back a reflec gleam from the nickel work of a tele- phone instrument that stood a few inches further along on the desk. The man's form. his back to the door. and back of the light, was like a 1t was qulet, silent mow in the house. Perhaps five seconds passed, and then the man chuckled low and wheexingly. Dave Henderson grew suddenly rigi It startled him. Somewhere he had heard that chuckle before— somewhere. It seemed striving to stir and awaken memory. There was :omel;llnz strangely familiar about t, and—— The man, stiil chuckling, was mut- tering audibly to himself now. “3ure. that's the dope! The Seor- plon—eh? Cunny the Scorpion! Nice name!

The man leaned abruptly forward over the desk, picked up the tele- phone, chuckled again, . snatched the receiver from the hook. And the next instant, his volce full of ‘well-simulated terror, he was calling frantically, into the trans- . s For he police. !q“h is it was! The flashlight found and | held on the electric-light switch. It was on _the opposite wall behind Bookle Skarvan. Dave Henderson shoved the man roughly out of the way, stepped quickly forward to the wall, switched on the light—and swung around to face Bookle Skarvan. For an instant Bookie Skarvan stood there without movement, the little eyes dilating, the white face turning ashen and gray, and then great beads of sweat sprang out upon the forehead—and a scream of abject terror pealed through the room.
