ABeqnelto'-fBrlduWil‘lfleBrl By Lucille Toward the End of & Perfect Day. LITTLE car bumped along & country road en & sprin evening. Buddenly the driver, who was not yet twenty, lifted his voice in song. “As we skid toward the end of a puur-r-tect day!” he caroled, tapping the shoulder of the girl beside him. “Wake up! You sing soprano, Poppy.’ He turned to shout commands at the passengers on the rear meat. “Alto, Mistress Merry; and, Rich, you and Gresham do & bumpity-bum-bum basso, while I tenor. Now, then, all tuh-geth—puur-ur-ur-fect day!" But the girl didn't try to sing. She leaned back, smiling, to think about what ® perfect day it had been. Twelve hours before she hadn't even met the persons with whom she was riding. er name was Pauline Du- bois. Bhe had just come to visit & cousin “next door” to the young man | Mq who was singing so vociferously. At 10 that morning he had raced ‘Mra.

I say, moth, let's call Miss Dubols Poppy, because her oheeks are so nice and red!” In the twilight Miss Dubols’ cheeks were glowing more than red as she remembered how very well acquainted she had become with this same breesy young man during the Jolly day that had followed. For the young man’s mother explained: “The boys have some Yale men vis- iting them and Madge Hawley has some girls visiting her, so we've packed two cars full of picnic hamp- ers. Run along, Miss Poppy, for your coat and hat. All day long the casual young man had been announcing loudly that he ‘was falling in love with her. He told ;vsrybody in the party that he adored er. But tete-a-tete he smiled at her. “Dom’t mind my Jjoshing,” he begged. “I'm only ragging Jerry. You see, he has a bit of crush on that Arnold girl. So I have to have an officlal object for my adorations. You're elected, but you can resign n;o:n office tomorrow if you get tired L She decided very promptly that pha' llked both Blaisdell boys much bet- ter than she llked the other two Yale men. “Yumpy” Johnson she thought & fearful bore, and Paul Gresham had been downright rude to her. Gresham had danced attendance all! way upon the chaperone, Mrs. John Munro Lindsay, who wasn't at all like any chaperone the bewildered Mis: Dubois had ever met before. She ha bobbed out of the doorway of a wee yellow cottage that Hal called “The | Pumpkin Shell,” and, pausing only to kiss two adorable red-headed ba- bles good-bye, had let herself be snatched up by young Gresham and all but thrown into the car.

The bed is meet for a 1ittle queen, hung with old rose and | old blue, and high piled with frothy cushions. She is awfully alive.

It was bécause they stayed away 80 long that Peter began to suspect a trick. o it was that when late one after- noon Reddy appeared in the distance and without onde looking toward the dear Old Briar-patch, trotted off to- ward the Green Forest, Peter was more suspicious than ever. You see, Reddy was overdoing matters. 8o Peter had slipped back through the dear Old Briar-patch to the other side, for it had popped into his head that it was on that side that danger might be.
