BY THORNTON W. quncnu. Whe premonition’s warning heeds WIIL be prepared for what succesds. —Old Mother Nature. Peter Rabbit coudn’t get over what Johnny" Chuck had told him. You kpow, Johnny had sald that they were to have a long, cold hard win- ter. For once Peter kept his tongue still. -He didn’'t gossip. He didn't tell ‘any one what Johnny had sald. For one thing he was fond of Johnny, and he didn’t want Johnny to be laughed at, as he was sure Johnny would be if it should get about ever the Green Meadows that he pretended to know what kind ef a winter was to come while it was yet a long way oft. 7 But Peter spent a great deal of time near Johnny Chuck’s house and visited with him_every day. It wad quite clear to Peter that Johnny belleved what he had said and was making ready accordingly. It didn't take long to get his house deep enough for his liking, and then Johnny Chuck devoted himself to eating. Polly Chuck did the same thing. It seemed to Peter that they spent almost every waking minute eating. Of course, Peter understood this. He knew that they were getting fat in preparation for the winter. He had seen them do it before. He knew W e e Ny I 3"\:': ’ it ae =2 AN Hlaey “JF YOU DON'T LOOK OUT, YOU'LL BURST, JOHNNY CHUCK * SAID HE. that this was their way of laying up food. They stored it away under their skins instead of in storcnouses, as the Squirrels did. It seemed to Peter a very handy way of doing. He had tried it once himself but hadn't succeeded. But never since Peterhad known him had Johnny Chuck been as fat as he now was. Still he kept on eating, eating, eating. It was fortunate for Johnny that he didn’t have to go far from his door- step to find food, for he was getting fat he could hardly waddi2. As|g, for running, that was out of the question. His skin looked as if it was stuffed so tight that if he drew a long breath it would burs His cheeks were puffed out so’ that his head looked twice as big as it used to be. He panted for breath when he ricved. But he kept right on eating. Yes, sir, he kept right on oating. At last Peter ventured to speak of look ouf u’'ll burst,’ Johnny Chuck,’” said he. “I've watched you fatten up before going to bed for the winter, but you never were nearly as fat'as you are now. “We haven't had as hard a winter as we are going to have this year,” panted Jumnv,fibflck. T'm getting ready for it.” * ~ \ “By getting fat?” asked Peter. Johnny nodded his heal “Yes,” said he, “by getting fat. It I am fat enough it won't: matter to me how long or how cold or how hard the winter 1s. But it would be dreadful to be chilled to death in the middle of winter because I hadn't fat enougn to keep me warm, or to wake up and find a late spring and that I hadn't fat enough to carry me throush. 1'm taking no chances. I tell you the wiuter is going tosbe long and hard. I know. Now, doa't talk to ms, or rather don't expect me to talk to you. I must eat and get;fat.” With this Johnny Chuck turned his back on Peter and went right on eat- ing. Polly Chuck, hdn’t even stopped to talk. Peter ook his head and gave it up. This Was too much sor him. He knew Johnny Chuck souldn't possibly know what kind of a winter was.coming, yet Johnny Chuck said he did know, and it was quite clear that he believed he did. Peter went off by himself and foolishly tried to have feelings, but tite only feeling he had was one of curlosity, and he wi oon on his way back to watch Jchnny Chuck eat. (Copyright, 1921, by T. W.

And there's the money there, too—you could take that with you.” The man seemed 'mear collapse. Great beads from his forehead ran down and over the sagging jowls. He moaned a little, and stared at the re- volver that lay upon the desk, and reached out his hand toward the weapon, and .drew his hand back again. He looked again at Dave Hen- derson, and at the muzsle of the re- volver that covered him. He seemed to read something {rrevocable and remorseless in both. _Slowly, his mouth working, his face muscles twitching, he reached agaln to the desk, and pulled the revoiver to him; and then, his arm falling nerve-: sly, he held the weapon danglin at his side. o eing (Continued in Tomorrow's Star.) closed teeth: “You ought to be satisfled then— Bookle. You've wanted me dead for quite a while—for five years, n't you?” There was no answer. Dave Henderson's eyes automati- cally swept around the now lighted room. Yes, that was Dago George there on the floor near the bed, lying on the side of his face, with a hideous gash across his head. The man was dead, of course; he couldn't be any- thing else. But anyway Dago George ‘was as something apart, an extrane- ous thing. There was only one thing in the world, one thing that held mind and soul and body in a thrall of wild. seething, remorseless passion—that maudlin, groveling thing there, whose clawing hands had found the end of the desk. and who hung there with curious limpness, as though, be- cause the knees sagged, the welght of his body was supported by hls arms alone—that thing whose lips, evi- dently trying to form words, jerked up and down like flaps of flesh from which all nerve control had gone. “Maybe you dldn't know that I knew it was you who were back of that attempt to murder me that night—five years ago.” Dnave Hender- son thrust the flashlight into his ocket and took a atep forward. “Well, you know it now!

Dave Henderson laughed shortly, unpleasantly, as he watched the other. There was only the door and the window. But he, Dave Hen- derson, blocked the way to the door; and the window, as he knew through the not-too-cursory examination he had made of it when he had come down the fire escape with the valises, was equally impassable. It had been in his mind then that perhaps he, him- self, might gain entrance to Dago George's room through the window— only the old-fashioned iron shutters, carefully closed and fastened, had barred the way. “Well?” He flung the word sharply at Bookle Skarvan. “I — Baldy knew the Scorpion.” Bookle Skarvan's fingers wriggled ba- tween his collar and his fat neck. “Baldy gave me a letter to him, and the Scorpion put one over on—on that fellow on the floor, and got me a room here upstairs.
