For she and her beloved John were leaving late that afternoon for a four days’ visit at the Blaigdells sum- mer home, an event that seemed so im- portant to Merry that she had spent a eek refurbishing her bibs and tuckers. John had returned late the even- ing before from a business trip In time for Merry to dump all his best under- wear, pajamas and shirts into the tubs for an all-night soaking. His modest wardrobe did not boast a very ample number of changes. “You'll simply have to buy three sets of underclothes, some sport shirts, some ——" Merry's voice trailed into noth- ingness as she watched John's jaws shut defiantly. John never refused his adored Merry anything he could possibly squeezo out the pennies for, but he spent not a sou of his slender salary for himself, if he could possibly avoid it.

One of the secrets of Blacky's suc cess in life is the fact that he never fails to take note of little things Long ago he learned that little thin which in themselves seem harmless and not worth noticing, may together prove the most important things®in life. So no matter how unimportant a thing may be, Blacky examines it closely with those sharp eyes of his and remembers it. The very first thing Blacky did as .

Then he got some breakfast. He ate it in a hurry and flew straight over to the Big River to the place where he had seen that yellow corn scattered.

It's a very old theory and still going strong. If the men had their way it would go still stronger. ‘“But, why,” I wondered to myself, “do they want women to cling to them when it would obviously be much cheaper and less troublesome to have those same wom- en independent?” ‘And then, suddenly, the answer burst upon me. The clinging vine theory {4 sulll Golors - 2 & S i1 TG v \\“\nnmu,,/) h SIETEg e i St i WU, MLt Q‘“""" vy ‘wasn't started to shield the vines but to glorify the oaks! No one can see your knees shake if you have a bunch ©of smilax draped about you. On the same principle, the camouflage of helpless bit of femininity will make an ordinary soft-wood he thing look like a hard-wood oaken hero. The clinging-er the vine, the sturdier the oak. Could anything be nicer! Now that's a mighty cléver scheme —but you can't bluff nature. Sooner or later shell show up your little dodge.

Who wouldn’t, possessed the spiffy looking troussseau luggage her indulgent dad had provided? The suit case was as elaborately equipped as a trunk, a scrumptious hat and shoe case, and ingeniously fitted bag for toilet things were all monogrammed to match. Merry gave them affectionate pats as she wedged in the last trifles. She looked like an exuberant pan- tomine fairy when John arrived. With her bronze hobbed curls and abbre- viated lingerie she was whirling about so wildly as she dressed that the kiss John aimed at her insouciant chin landed on a dimpled shoulder. “Latest thing in for me!” she boasted she rolled diminutive yellow satin dancing corsets into a compact roll and nonchalantly jammed them Into her golf bag. ‘“—sure, I know what I'm doing,” she answered John's up- lifted eyebrows. ‘“Haven't you been married long enough to know that all women carry their corsets that way?

A moment later she was clinging helplessly to his bed- post, overcome by giggles. For neatly arrayed on John's coun- terpane lay his freshly laundered un- derwear, pajamas and sport shirts.

They seem- ed quite contented and in the best of pirits. Blacky guessed why. Not a ingle grain of that yellow corn could Blacky see. He knew the ways of Dusky and his relatives. He knew hat they must have come in there at dusk the night before and at tound that corn. He knew that would remain hiding there until frightened out, and that then they would nd the day in some little pond, where they would not be likely to be disturbed, or where at le: no danger could approach them without being seen in plenty of time. There they would rest all day and when the Black Shadows came creeping out from the Purple Hills they would re- turn to that place on the Big River to feed, for that s the time when they like best to hunt for their food. Dusky looked up as Blacky flew over him, but Blacky said nothing and Dusky said nothing. But if Blacky didn't use his tongue he did use his eyes. He saw just on the edge of the shore what looked like a lot of small bushes growing close together on the very edge of the water. Mixed in with them were a lot of the brown rushes. They looked very harmless and innocent. But Blacky knew every foot of that shore along the Big River and he knew that those bushes hadn't been there during the summer. He knew that they hadn’t grown there. He flew directly over them. Just back of them were a couple of logs. Those logs handn't been there when he passed that way a few days ago. He was sure of it. “Ha!" exclaimed Blacky under his breath. “Those look to me as if they might be very handy, very handy, in- deed, for a hunter to sit on. Sitting there behind those bushes he would be hidden from any Duck who might come in to look for nice yellow corn scattered out there among the rushes. It doesn’t look right to me. No, sir, it doesn’t look right to me. I think I'll keep an eye on this place. So Blacky came back to the Big River several timeg that day. The second time-back he found that Dusky the Black Duck and his flock had left. ‘When he returned in the afternoon he saw the same man he had seen there the afternoon before and he was doing the same thing—scattering yellow corn out in the rushes. And as before he went away in a boat. “I don't like it,” muttered Blacky, haking his head. “I don’t like it.” (Copyright, 1921, by Burgess. things and then stand on ‘em with- out other support. A man may not seem quite as heroic when he has to make good without the flattering comparison of feminine weakness, but he saves himself the misery of being slowly ‘strangled by that same weak- ness. An independent woman isn't quite as decorative as the old clinging vine, but she is infinitely more happy and more helpful to the rest of the gang.
